    Then I'll take out these three books. The first one is a monster-raising novel. The author, Nan Yaoshu, has a life story that's like a wish-fulfillment tale of a comeback. He used to be a factory assembly line worker, working more than ten hours a day, and could only use his time after get off work to write. He eventually rose to become the number one Western fantasy author. The second one is by Jin Zhe, who started writing in elementary school and has been doing one thing for 10 years, handwriting his manuscripts day after day. It's a parasitic beast novel with a dual-soul transmigration theme. The third one makes me suspect that the author wrote his doctoral dissertation. His writing is extremely rigorous, which is not an exaggeration in any respect.

    I think this is alright, but there might be some triggers for many people. I'll give a brief overview first, and you can read on before you start reading: The male lead might be a bit repressed and a little cheeky. The author might forget some plot points, which is typical of the author skipping parts of the story. It's been updating for several years now, and the village chief says it's normal, so be tolerant. Also, the senior brother is aloof and arrogant, while the junior sister is lively—it's a very typical pairing. The protagonist always has periods of repression. If you can accept that, give it a try. Personally, I think it's okay. By the way, I ship the male lead and the senior brother, and I also ship the junior sister. I feel like the author might be a fujoshi (female fan of BL), just a feeling, because the two senior brothers are really quite likable (//∇//).
