   These are all ensemble pieces. The first one is a romance, the second has two male leads, and the rest are all without a romantic pairing. Don't waste my thousand-plus words recommending these books! First book: Li Wenyin transmigrates into a child's body and experiences an unhappy childhood. After working hard to reach the magic academy, she is assigned to an abandoned academy. Later, through hard work, she successfully enters the Obsidian Academy and begins her journey to become a great magician. Overall, it's a heartwarming story with a light plot. Wenyin gains many friends through her personal charm and also has a cute little Yuchi Youyou. Second book: Jiang Donglin is reborn. In his previous life, due to his sister's illness, he was bound to a system, and his body was controlled. One by one, his friends died… His friend who was afraid of heights fell to his death; the swimming champion was falsely accused of cheating and forced to retire, suffering infamy; his lively sister died of ALS; his celebrity sister died in a fire due to a "mistake" on set; his singer friend was attacked online because of a variety show targeting the female lead… He could only watch, becoming a background character for the male and female leads. He was labeled a villain simply because he couldn't accept sharing the female lead with other male leads, and was eventually kidnapped and used as an experimental subject in a basement, where he died... In this life, he obtained the panacea from his previous life and saved his sister. Unexpectedly, the system returned, so he went to find his childhood friend whom he hadn't seen for many years, imprisoned the system, changed the plot, and lived on the original timeline. Overall, it's a heartwarming and very enjoyable read. There aren't many romantic subplots at the beginning. It's already completed, with extra chapters being added. You can read it with confidence. The third book: Murphy suddenly gets bound to a card-drawing system. Because his skills are too ridiculous, he's constantly surrounded by disasters, but he meets a group of very good people and has had some very strange experiences. He's blown up a cruise ship involved in human trafficking; killed a giant brown bear; been toasted by a Russian mafia boss; and protected an atomic bomb... Overall, it's a comedy. The main text is complete. The fourth book: Gu Qinghuan is in a car accident, and her entire family of three dies. For her parents, she chooses to bind to a system to save her classmates (the system won't interfere with Qinghuan throughout the book). Originally, it was for herself and her parents, but later it gradually became about saving others. Throughout the entire book, Qinghuan is incredibly intelligent, possessing high emotional intelligence. She helps others solve problems in her own way, without blindly interfering in their choices. She's not a mindless heartthrob! Not a mindless heartthrob!! Not a mindless heartthrob!!! (I'm emphasizing this three times!) The main story is complete, so feel free to read on, but the side stories haven't been updated yet. The author is truly dedicated to writing; even the title has hidden meanings. The fifth book is about our beloved young master, Fang Zhixin. She was reborn into another world, witnessing her parents' deaths. After the old director of the orphanage died, she was adopted and lived like this for sixteen years. Suddenly, a group of men in black burst into her house, claiming she was actually the young master of a powerful family and had gone with them to find out about her parents. She then saw another side of the world, learned the truth, and began cultivating. She awakened a spatial ability, discovering that she could hear the voices of all things because of the Voice of All Things. However, something was amiss: the storage rings and teleportation scrolls she created would explode. From then on, she went further and further down the path of absurd and troublesome antics. Overall, it's quite humorous, but it has a grand world-building at the end. (I'm so envious of those of you who are only now discovering this story. Do you know how painful it was for me to wait for its updates? [Smile]) The seventh book: World Destruction, Doomsday Tower Countdown Begins. The conflict between superpowered individuals and ordinary people is deepening. Watch how we, the heroes who save the world, strike back. I won't go into too much detail, it's exhausting... But this one is truly amazing, everyone should read it! The last three books are written by the same author; I suggest reading them in the order of 5, 6, and 7, even including the guest appearances. I especially love our young master and the silent cat. Everyone should read them!!!

   In a small-town school, a farmer's daughter, like Cinderella, secretly loves the mayor's grandson. Neither the boy nor the girl knows the other's feelings. It's a bittersweet story of unrequited love amidst social inequality. Trust me, it's completely different from the typical wish-fulfillment novels on Tomato.
