    Let me recommend some of my favorite books. First one: It's simple. The system malfunctions, and the protagonist becomes the system, transmigrating into a novel's world and binding himself to the villain. It's quite interesting; if you like this type, you can check it out. Second one: It's a combination of gangster and supernatural elements. It's somewhat like a supernatural dungeon. The protagonist is a ruthless gangster, a double-ranked "red stick" (a powerful and influential figure in the gang). He's the most powerful henchman in the gang, kind-hearted, and definitely not a saint. It seems quite engaging. If you like this type, you can check it out. Third one: This one is more entertainment-oriented. Since I read a wide variety of books, this one is mainly... Touching. It's very well-written and made me cry. The character descriptions are quite good. The protagonist suffers from a terminal illness. The main reason I cried during the concert scene with the PPT presentation was because the songs were very much to my liking. One was a meat dish, the other a vegetarian one, sung by Mao Buyi. I cry every time I hear those songs in real life. The songs are mostly sad and quite tear-jerking. Those interested in this area can check it out; it's quite good. The fourth book. This one has a comedic feel. It's really funny. The protagonist has many clones. Each clone has its own ideas. At the beginning, he directly feeds a strange beast until it dies from overeating. The art style... This is a comedy anime. And it's even organized. Of course, the members of this organization are the protagonist and his clones. They all seem to be wearing animal masks. I think it's called a circus. It's quite fun. You can watch it. If you like this kind of thing, you can watch it. The fifth book. It's also somewhat comedic. It's a bit thuggish; the protagonist's pet beast is quite a rogue and a social outcast. It's also a very fun novel. If you like this style, you can check it out. The sixth one is quite famous. It's mainly a relatively bland immortality cultivation novel. Obviously, the protagonist's immortality is due to a system. Obviously, the protagonist's immortality is because of the system. He was given an immortal cow as a gift. It's about an immortal being with an immortal cow. From an ordinary person and an ordinary cow... This is a story about embarking on the path of cultivation. The protagonist is a bit cunning, following the path of cunning. The character details and so on are quite good. The emotional storyline isn't the typical male-female romance; it's more about familial and platonic relationships. It's quite good, especially the protagonist's ox-like nature. You could say he's indispensable. If the protagonist dies, the ox wouldn't survive either. The protagonist often makes empty promises, which the ox willingly accepts. It's a light, humorous, and lighthearted cultivation novel. If you like this type, you can check it out. Okay, that's all. In conclusion, the books I recommended, since I recommended them, don't have any particularly disgusting ones, like those with saintly characters or male leads engaging in ambiguous relationships. The books I rejected, except for the second one, are all either single-female lead or no female lead at all. There's no ambiguous relationship. Why only the second one? Because the protagonist is in the underworld. Women aren't something they value much. They don't prioritize them, so there's no single-female lead or multiple-female lead dynamic. So I won't mention it. Okay, introduction complete. Choose whichever you like and take a look.
