   Both are novels with two male protagonists. The first one features a sword cultivator who has awakened his consciousness and is also very skilled in formations. The second protagonist is reborn, and had no relationship with the first before his rebirth. They are lovers destined to face a tribulation. It's still ongoing, and the author updates relatively consistently. It's quite good. The second one is also quite good. Neither protagonist is a good person in the traditional sense, but they aren't completely outrageous either. Their interactions are quite pleasant. It's quite good. It leans towards an ensemble cast.

   This is a wonderful book. I found virtually no typos or grammatical errors; the plot is clear and well-structured, with a large cast of characters, each with distinct personalities, and no confusing character names. The protagonist is decisive in his loves and hates, loyal but not promiscuous, not a saint, and upholds morality. He possesses extraordinary talent and incredible perseverance—a true man who can be both resilient and strong. In short, this is one of the few books I've read all the way to the end.

    Both are books I particularly love. The first one has a bit of a redemption story feel to it. Chu Gou is like a ray of light in Jiang Zhou's dark world, appearing when Jiang Zhou wanted to jump off a building and taking him home. The whole book is sweet. What impressed me most was the relationship between Jiang Zhou and his grandmother; it was a bit tear-jerking. His grandmother calls him Xiaoman because Xiaoman is better than Wanquan. The second one is also a sweet story, still being updated. It's about social anxiety and autism. Qin Huaiyu has liked Qing Qiu for a long time, secretly following and protecting him. After awakening the bullet screen system, he realizes that the other person likes him. It's sweet. The shou (bottom) is socially anxious and insecure, feeling unworthy of the other person's affection, and often doubts himself. The gong (top) always uses his own methods to prove his love for him.

    [Hello 01, I am Tianyan, the Destiny One System. I wish to bind with you to complete a mission. After the mission is completed, the system will grant you one wish.] [01: Agree to bind] — Cold, so cold… Since evolving into a new human, 01 hasn't felt cold for a long time, but now… [01, wake up! You're in the water. You need to get to shore immediately, or you will die again.] 01 opened her eyes with a whoosh and found herself soaking in the water. Her soaked clothes were incredibly heavy, and she was falling downwards. Looking up at the water, 01 saw people standing on the shore because the water was clear. Those people standing on the shore couldn't possibly not have noticed someone falling into the water, yet they didn't try to help… 01 lowered her eyes, moved her stiff hands, and then swam upwards. "Splash!" After breaking through the water, 01 gasped for breath. The feeling of suffocation slowly dissipated. 01 raised her hand to wipe the water from her face and looked at the shore. A number of people, men and women, stood on the bank, all looking at the pool. Upon seeing her, their already grim expressions worsened. She ignored their gazes, but a sharp pain shot through her heart. At the same time, memories not belonging to her flooded her mind. The original owner of this body was the daughter of a prime minister, but she was maliciously switched at birth and later adopted by a farming family. The couple had no children; she was their first child, and they named her Ling Yi. The farming family couldn't compare to the prime minister's family, but they never mistreated the child, raising her to be lively and cheerful. However, this lively and cheerful person, after being brought home, was scolded by her family for being ill-mannered and lacking manners. Gradually, the original owner became silent and cautious. Even worse, they brought her back so that she could replace the fake heiress who had occupied her life for sixteen years and marry the crippled third prince! The third prince's true love was the fake heiress, but being crippled himself, he didn't want to wrong her, so he acquiesced to the Prime Minister's arrangement. However, he was resentful and unwilling to wrong the person he loved, so he took advantage of the original owner of this body, repeatedly humiliating her even before the marriage. The original owner, not wanting to marry such a person, begged her parents, but they were indifferent, saying that for someone who had been a peasant girl for sixteen years, marrying a prince was an immense blessing, something many would kill for. With the wedding date approaching, the original owner threatened suicide and jumped into the pond in front of everyone, hoping to soften her parents' hearts. However, her so-called relatives simply watched her jump, and after she did, no one even tried to save her. The original owner died, and her body was replaced by 01. "Ling Yi," 01 murmured the name, "quite fitting." From now on, she would be called Ling Yi. Thinking this, Ling Yi swam towards the shore. Just as Ling Yi gripped the rocks on the shore, preparing to climb out, someone approached and stepped on the back of her hand. It's said that the ten fingers are connected to the heart, and despite having her hand stepped on like that, Ling Yi showed no sign of pain. Instead, she looked up at the person who had stepped on her. Seeing that face, Ling Yi recognized him from her memories. Lin Chengyu, the young master of the Prime Minister's mansion, and also Ling Yi's twin brother. That's right, Lin Chengyu and Ling Yi were twins. But this brother, who had spent ten months with her in her mother's womb, was also the one who treated her the worst. Like now, while others disliked her, before they could do anything, Lin Chengyu couldn't wait to show off. Lin Chengyu looked down at Ling Yi, her gaze not that of someone looking at her sister, but as if she were looking at trash. Her foot, which was pressing down on Ling Yi's hand, twitched slightly. Lin Chengyu said coldly, "Ling Yi, didn't you want to die?" "We haven't even had anyone rescue you yet, why did you come up here yourself?" "You say you want to die, but you don't really want to die at all. You only know how to threaten our parents with death, making things difficult for them. You might as well just really die." "Want me to die?" Ling Yi looked at Lin Chengyu, a smile playing on her lips. "Fine." "We were born together, so naturally we should die together." With that, Ling Yi's remaining hand suddenly grabbed Lin Chengyu's foot and pulled hard. Caught off guard, Lin Chengyu was pulled into the water along with Ling Yi. "Cough cough..." Water rushed into his mouth and nose as Lin Chengyu struggled to get out of the water. A shadow fell upon him at that moment. In his panic, Lin Chengyu looked at the shadow: Ling Yi, pale-faced, with a sinister look in her eyes. Her wet black hair clung to her pale skin, making her look like a demon crawling out of the water. As Lin Chengyu struggled, Ling Yi gripped his neck tightly, pressing him down. "Yu'er!" "Fourth Brother!" "Fourth Young Master!" The people on the shore were terrified at the sight. A woman cried out, "Save him! Save Yu'er!" Immediately, people jumped into the water to rescue him. "Insane! Insane!" The woman's voice trembled as she recalled the scene. "Yu'er is her own brother! How could she be so cruel as to harm her own brother!" "Mother, Second Brother and the servants have all gone down. Fourth Brother will be alright," a beautiful woman soothed. "Sister did this because she didn't want to marry the Third Prince. If she really doesn't want to, then don't force her. I'll marry him, but then what about the Crown Prince..." "She has to marry him, whether she likes it or not!" The woman interrupted her. "Once we bring her back up, I'll have her locked up until she's married!" A glint flashed in the woman's eyes, but she remained silent. Just then, the man who had jumped in first, grabbing one person with each hand, broke through the water and returned to the shore. Ling Yi stared intently at Lin Chengyu, seemingly wanting to go forward again. Lin Chengyu's face was pale, and there were clear marks on his neck from being strangled. Judging from the marks, the person who attacked him had used lethal force. Lin Chengyu caught her breath and looked at Ling Yi in disbelief, but when she met Ling Yi's murderous eyes, she froze. Ling Yi really wanted to kill him, but... How could this be? He was her brother! The feeling of being on the verge of death, coupled with Ling Yi's expression, made Lin Chengyu unable to even utter a question. Just then, the woman walked straight up to Ling Yi and raised her hand to strike him. Seeing the woman's hand coming towards him, Ling Yi's gaze turned cold. He grabbed the woman's hand and looked at this so-called mother. The woman struggled to pull her hand away, but couldn't break free. She looked at Ling Yi and said sharply, "Yu'er is your own brother, and you actually wanted to kill your own brother? How could you be so vicious?" Ling Yi's gaze fell on the woman's face: "Want to hit me?" Before the woman could answer, Ling Yi slapped her across the face with his free hand. "Slap!" The woman staggered and fell backward. "Mother!" "Madam!" The young girl and her maids hurriedly helped her up, looking at Ling, who had made the move, with shocked expressions.

    The first book is a pure romance novel. I haven't read many of this type, so I can't really judge whether it's good or bad, but I enjoyed this one; it's probably good. You could check it out. The second book is a campus system novel. The system isn't exaggerated or overly powerful; it just enhances the host's abilities. There's no story where a prop makes girls fall for you; it's more about gradually increasing your personal charm. There are also some subtle, understated displays of coolness. It's very interesting and a comfortable read. It's just that the name makes me think it has multiple female leads, but it's currently only a single female lead. The third and fourth books don't need much explanation; just read them, they're incredibly interesting. I guarantee they'll leave you depressed for a long time afterward.
