It feels like every book I've read introduces a few male supporting characters at the start, but the female lead doesn't like any of them. Then some cold, powerful man with an impressive background appears out of nowhere and falls in love at first sight. So boring. I want one where the male supporting character introduced at the beginning is actually the male lead. Not sure if you get what I mean 🤧

[The school tyrant, the god of learning, x Cheng Zhang, the soft sweet girl] The experimental middle school gossip group was recently discussing the relationship between the transfer student female lead, Gu Huai, and the school tyrant male lead, Jiang Shixu. Everyone: Brother Xu has a mysophobia, why would he lend his school uniform to Gu Huai? The male protagonist stayed out of his way. Many years later, some classmates saw the unruly school bully gently holding the transfer student female protagonist in his arms. The girl trembled and hooked her arm around his neck, "Kiss him again"... @Author721a03

This book is different from the old-fashioned rebirth novel of "I betrayed the male protagonist/female protagonist in the previous life, and after rebirth chases my wife/husband in the crematorium". The protagonist Lin Yu is a human ghost. After death, his soul is possessed by the vegetative body of He Jiarong, and he inherits the mantle of medical skills and martial arts. Anyway, it's very interesting, and it's also the first novel I followed.

👉🏻Must be it! Although there is no rating, it is worth watching. The female protagonist is a gentle father➕depressed, obedient and annoying, and the male protagonist is a healing little sun🔆.
