   It's confirmed to be a female-centric story with no romantic pairing. It's a feel-good story, which is fine, since she's essentially working for the country and wouldn't feel resentful. However, in the early stages, she's a ghost and hasn't yet become human, so she can't appear among people. Most importantly, the government hasn't officially announced anything about her. If you can't accept that, then there's nothing I can do. And most importantly, because it's a "serialized" and "new book," if you can't accept that, then there's nothing I can do. [Sending heart]

    Reader note

    The first of these two novels features a female protagonist with no male lead. It's a supernatural world where the female lead, Zhong Yao, is a max-level puppeteer, unmarried and childless with seven dolls. The synopsis mentions her anticipation of reuniting with someone, referring to her best friend, the goddess Mo Qiu. The beginning follows the cliché of a wealthy family finding their heiress; the female lead receives her mother's will and learns her father was a scoundrel, initially reluctant to acknowledge him. However, she ultimately goes for the money (the materials for making the puppets are expensive, leaving her financially strapped). She doesn't suffer mistreatment at the Jiang family's hands. The second novel is a modern cultivation story where the female lead, Miao Chaoyan, is the head of the Miao family, a family of healers and their beloved daughter. The story begins with her being possessed by a transmigrator for a year before expelling him. Her experiences in the entertainment industry are particularly hilarious.

    All of these are female-centric, no-romance, feel-good stories. The first book, "Game Invasion," features a lone wolf heroine with a smart, rational, and decisive personality. The second book has a heroine who transmigrates to Greek mythology, possessing a noble status but weak strength, yet she grows stronger through her wisdom from her later life. The third book is similar to the second, but the heroine is influenced by the god of love and attracted by her divine duty, developing feelings for the sun god, though they don't end up together. The fourth book involves transmigrating to a beast world, handing over a system, and receiving national assistance to develop in another world.
