   *Ahem* 🎷🎷 As a novice Tomato (a popular Japanese web novel) and a seasoned Red Stone (another popular Chinese web novel) enthusiast, I'm here to solemnly introduce you to a work that truly impressed me. Check out our Lu Ge (a character from a popular Chinese web novel), he's incredibly reliable—that's the charm of a handsome, strong, tragic, and hilarious character. The entire protagonist group is made up of villains; their first thought for cooperation is kidnapping. But within the group, there's an unspoken understanding: "You know what kind of shit they're going to do just by looking at them." Each character has a significant role, and there are even individual highlights. With ten characters in the group, there's bound to be a pair you like. If you want to see a betrayal, wait for the third volume. If you follow along, I guarantee you'll be thrilled to the point of scalp tingling. All Lu characters are incredibly satisfying to read, especially the miscellaneous tasks. Twins, best friends, three little ones, nemesis… The book is still in its early stages, but the fandom is incredibly active, with a bright future ahead. The entire manuscript is already in reserve, sisters, investing is definitely worthwhile.
