【Low-key】【Low-key】【Low-key】, important things must be said three times. I don’t want someone who seems cautious and low-key but then charges into the black market. I mean genuinely low-key! No flaunting your wealth from beginning to end, no acting superior and barging into the black market, and no sudden personality changes where everyone else is treated like an idiot! Read the requirements carefully before recommending anything.

I have carefully selected these books, and they don't have too many cheats (they won't make people suspicious), especially the third book, where various blessings, black market queens, and pdd system protagonists are in the world around the protagonist. The protagonist is really super low-key, and can be said to be the most low-key I have ever seen.

It's very interesting. This is the first time I have finished the series. It writes about the development of the heroine's career and her gradual acceptance of family ties and love. It is not just about the love between the male and female protagonists. I love reading this kind of novel. The relationship between the two people seems to be a long-lasting relationship. However, I feel that the ending is a bit rushed. I should be able to write more. This is my first time writing a book review. I'm not very familiar with it. There are many good things I haven't described yet.
