Gong-Centric, Gong-Obsessed, Straight Gong, Pampered Gong
I like stories with pampered tops, or tops who are straight or don't return the love. Sadly, there's not much to read, and so many great stories are unfinished. Keeping a record so I can reread them later.
Mutual Pampering, Top-Leaning: Only Stories You Can Read with a Top Preference
Mutual devotion, with a preference for the gong. I’m fine with both characters reciprocating and making sacrifices, but the shou must be strong. No gong who’s only strong in bed, or shou who’s only pretending to be strong. A list of treasured favorites. Star ratings are based on how likely I am to reread them.
Pure Love: Top
Quick transmigration, crossovers based on film and TV, and stories where everyone is drawn to the protagonist.
The Eunuch’s Once-in-a-Lifetime Love
Dumplings with vinegar. I don't want to rate these, just keep track of the books I like.
A Reading List
Leaning toward top-focused stories. I wholeheartedly support the top, and I like bottoms who are weak in bed. I'll pick and choose among those who are neither strong nor weak in bed, or who are strong in bed. These are some I've read.
Zerg-Insect World, Beloved by All, Top-Dom Lead
The protagonist is the focus. I like plots where they use a secret identity and pretend to be weak while secretly being powerful. Most are ongoing or abandoned, so check before you start.
Seme POV 2
Classics I haven't read
A Comfort Zone for Stories That Dote on the Seme
Spoiled gong, shou pursues gong, weak gong, beautiful gong, pathetic gong
Completed Paid Novels I've Read Over the Years
Just keeping records. Letting books pile up makes them easy to abandon, but keeping up with them risks getting burned. Let’s see all the ways stories get abandoned or pulled from sale.
Top-Focused, Top-Leaning
Total top-lover. I just love seeing the bottom act like a lovesick dog for the top, and I love unequal relationships. This list is mainly seedlings, ongoing stories, and abandoned works. I might add completed favorites too
[Fanfiction/Original] XP Above All! ①
I'm protagonist-focused and like emotionally repressed, passive protagonists who are both tragic and irresistible. My kink is forced love. I enjoy melodramatic angst, but not stories that leave me frustrated. I only read happy endings. I'm a dog person, lean S, and like training dogs.
Top-Protagonist Stories
Mostly stories with protagonist characters adored by everyone, with lots of people falling for them
Some Quick Reviews
I generally prefer the top to be doted on. I like powerful, adored bottoms, and I'm fine with either weak or strong tops
My Personal Favorites
All the GK stories I've read that I thought were well written. Some were read a long time ago, so my preferences may vary. I lean toward gong characters, and most are weaker gongs.

Protagonist-Top Novels (Hardcore Top Fan)
Some decent gong-centric novels I’ve read. Give them a try!
Pampered Seme
My tolerance varies. A lot of these are stories I read years ago, so beware of landmines
A Spring View and a Long Wind
Previously read? Some parts were really problematic? Memory 3
Mm-hmm

I believe in you, even if it takes ten years, I will keep waiting
It's 2023, who doesn't have Zerg Wenchi in attack and control, and is still waiting for more π_π
The summer vacation is coming to an end, so come back soon, Xinghe is still waiting to help him escape from this hateful Zerg world.
It's 2023, it's the end as promised, hey (lights up cigarette)
It's so appetizing that I have to revisit it from time to time.
Infatuated readers, please wait for another life [dog head]
I'm already a freshman, I will always wait for you [crying] [crying]
I will relive it again in 2024. Will I be able to see the follow-up in this life?
It's been 24 years and I'm still waiting for you
:-(, How can Xinghe be happy if he can't go home [poor]
