    All three are top-notch reads, all without a romantic pairing but still enjoyable to read. The protagonists have career paths, and there are plenty of satisfying moments. There are high-energy moments within everyday life, and vice versa. There are no obvious flaws, and the author's daily output makes the first two books stand out among transmigration comic book novels, especially the second one. The protagonist doesn't join the main group but rather tries to sabotage them—a good guy pretending to be a villain. Even though his actions are terrible, he doesn't hurt anyone; there must be a reason! The first book's protagonist is a fun-loving, neutral character, flirting with this person today and playing around with that person tomorrow—delicious! The third book is a female-oriented entertainment industry novel. The plot is constantly about face-slapping, and after the face-slapping, it's back to sweet everyday life (with maybe a few bit of angst mixed in). It's a mix of sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy—delicious!

    Reader note

    I've read nearly 1000 chapters and thoroughly enjoyed it. The female lead, Luo Yuejian, is white-haired, socially awkward, and nicknamed "Moon Goddess." On the surface, she's a cold, beautiful, and incredibly powerful figure, but in reality, she's a goofball with a system (which should be related to the future female lead). She only needs to die in the game to return to the real world, but thanks to her incredible luck, she not only survives but also becomes a powerful figure in everyone's eyes. She streams the game, and if she reaches 10 million fans, she can be resurrected. Each viewer can only follow 3 people (another follow slot was added later). This should be the last stage, and I'm looking forward to the ending [shy]. Hint: There are many unnamed supporting characters, too many names to remember. The forum comments will analyze Moon Goddess's amazing plays in this game and praise her, but she's a high-dimensional being, so it's a bit too much praise, making her seem like an ordinary person (but I really enjoyed it, so please don't mind the minor flaws).
