    The best contemporary romance novel I've read this year, featuring a strong, intelligent couple. The author is highly professional in the business and finance field, making the business battles incredibly exciting, and the romance is also very delicate. This book has a deep foundation and is suitable for seasoned readers. The male lead is madly in love, and the female lead is also outstanding. The only problem is that there are no substitutes. The character settings are very sophisticated; no one else on the entire Tomato website can replicate them. It's suitable for readers with discerning taste, offering a unique and extreme emotional rollercoaster, avoiding clichés. The pacing is steady, starting slowly but building up to a sweeter, more intense feeling as you read on. It has a grand scope and will leave you with something to ponder. The plot takes off after chapter ten; you'll thank me after you finish reading.

    The education bureau chief, seeing him only eating rice with seaweed and egg drop soup, kindly asked why he didn't apply for a scholarship. The more he dug into his background, the more shocked he became: "Kid, just eat the seaweed soup, leave the purple eggs for them!" While others become famous through their talent, he becomes more famous through "background exposés." The system turned his "orphan's rise to fame" into a "show of revealing the secrets of everyone's powerful family members," with each twist making everyone laugh until they're pounding the table. I love funny plot twists.

    These are all books. I'm currently reading the first one. The protagonist is reincarnated with a system and sweeps through everything. His family background is incredibly powerful; his father is an invincible emperor, the strongest person below even the Great Emperor. The protagonist also has his own power, with subordinates whose talents are all incredibly strong (the protagonist is the strongest). The second one has the protagonist's memories erased due to family rules. He goes to the lower realm for training but is framed and has his supreme bone extracted. At the critical moment, his older brother and sister save him, and he awakens a system, gaining an even stronger physique. His family background is truly invincible, the strongest family in all the heavens and myriad realms. The lower realm's Heavenly Dao administrators can kill him at will. I highly recommend this one. I haven't read the others yet, but from the synopsis, their backgrounds are all incredibly powerful.
