    I discovered the first one a few days ago; the writing style is delicate, the author is quite skilled, and it leans towards slice-of-life. The second one isn't popular yet, but the content is quite novel; the protagonist transmigrates to another world and his identity is discovered by the female lead. I highly recommend both of these; they're worth checking out. The latter two are more typical entertainment industry novels, but they also have their merits; those who like that kind of thing can give them a try.
