Click through from my profile~] As a son-in-law who married into the powerful Bobs family, Wei Miao did his job exceptionally well. In public, he and his female spouse treated each other with respect. To the media and online observers, they were one of the rare “model couples.” He had no concubines, steadfastly supported his spouse’s career, and cheered him on every time he went into battle. They had even raised a lovel 77.8kFavorites114.3kClicks/ch73.8kGifts

   This is the last book I finished reading, and I'd rate it around four and a half stars. The characters of the two main characters are very well-developed, especially the protagonist, a contradictory product of a politician/capitalist and his doting wife's conflicting mindsets, which left a deep impression on me. Although the Zerg + General + divorce buffs are quite heavy, the content is very grounded, showing the author did a lot of research. The contrast between the perspectives of pure-blooded Zerg and pure-blooded Earthlings is also very interesting (and the author's dry humor is superb, with the author's comments being extremely witty – definitely not to be missed). Overall, the tone is slightly bittersweet.

2. 52 朕 My Demon 朕的妖 Gray Valley灰谷Danmei (BL)570k WordsCompleted As a puppet emperor whose position is hanging by a thread, Xiao Yan only worries about how to keep himself fed. Until one day, he discovers a dull gemstone in an underground chamber. Inside the gemstone is a lich from another world. His magic is depleted and his soul is torn apart, leaving him no choice but to dwell in a soul casket. Even so, the demonic power he occasionally displays is extraordinary. To restore the Lich King’s strength and protect himself, the young emperor begins searching fo 74.7kFavorites80.8kClicks/ch76.6kGifts

   The synopsis is interesting, but the writing is quite boring. The seme's role is similar to Yao Lao in Battle Through the Heavens, essentially the uke's built-in cheat ability, and then the two of them inadvertently fall in love.

3. 53 这 This Is How It Starts? I Choose to Fake My Death [Book Transmigration] 这么开局？我选择死遁[穿书] Xiao Yao枭钥Danmei (BL)801k WordsCompleted [New novel, The Villains I Raised All Went Off the Rails [Quick Transmigration], now updating] Reborn after death, Shen Ji transmigrates into a book as a disposable cauldron, forced to be offered to the most powerful villain, the Phoenix Sovereign Xie Fu.

   This is another book by Xiaoyue, and it's still a romance between the two main characters. Although it's the old-fashioned chase-and-run type, the pursuit in this one is really intense (of course, the pursuer is also very fast), creating a strong sense of urgency while reading. The romance in this one is slightly weaker than the other one, but it's still quite good (and I personally admire the protagonist's highly proactive nature; he doesn't just blindly follow the system's tasks). The supporting characters are also adorable, and the original male lead's imaginative interpretations are hilarious.

4. 54 朕 I Rule the World Through Card Draws [Nation-Building] 朕靠抽卡君临天下[基建] Zi Wu Yue Yuan紫舞玥鸢Danmei (BL)909k WordsCompleted The new historical danmei novel, "Back to the Day the Tyrant Took Me by Force", is now underway! Blurb: On the eve of his coronation, Xiao Qingming was transmigrated into someone else's body. He suddenly found himself in a modern, civilized society, where he discovered that he had originally been an NPC in an emperor-raising game. On the day the game shut down, he returned to the throne with his modern memories and the game's card-draw System. The nation was be 68.1kFavorites89.7kClicks/ch79.8kGifts

   The rating is around three and a half stars. One advantage of an experienced author is that there are practically no flaws (.). As for the plot, as the title suggests, it's about the male lead becoming emperor and ruling the country, interspersed with scenes of the two main characters falling in love. It's well-written and has a satisfying ending. The male lead's personality is a bit like a mischievous cat, full of energy (?). The female lead is somewhat like a squinty-eyed character from anime (.).

5. 55 强EN Taking Someone by Force, but the Wrong Person 强取豪夺，人夺错了 Xiao Yao枭钥Danmei (BL)519k WordsCompleted After being transported into a book as an overbearing villain who forces himself on people, he has the plot laid out in advance by a System, so the mission should be easy. But things go wrong just as he’s about to get started. “Host, you’re already late for the first major plot point!” There was no undoing it now. Qin You ignored the System’s reminder and hurried to the scene as fast as he could. According to the plot, he was supposed to lose control and force himself on the protagonist-botto 64.2kFavorites97.7kClicks/ch74.5kGifts

   Rated around four and a half stars, this story focuses heavily on the romance between a young couple, with the entire plot serving their love. While the misunderstandings between the two are a bit forced (I can only say that the indiscriminate use of nasal sounds ruined it for everyone), it's still quite enjoyable to watch them gradually develop their relationship. The author's romantic storyline is a significant improvement over her previous works; the romance unfolds naturally, and the climaxes are emotionally charged. The misunderstanding resolution parts are particularly satisfying to read (the only downside might be that the main plot point is placed in the later stages; if you don't mind that, you can give it a try).

6. 56 纯 The Pure White Crown 纯白皇冠 Chu Hanyi Qing楚寒衣青Danmei (BL)670k WordsCompleted Jiang Xing never considered himself a genius. After working in show business for twenty years, at the age of forty-two he finally earned the Best Actor award for his performance. He had a couple too many drinks at the celebration banquet. When he opened his eyes, he had returned to twenty years earlier and been bound to a dream System calling itself 0021. It said it had come because of his hard work. Jiang Xing, you are a hardworking genius. That same day, Jiang Xing met Lu Yunkai on a film s 57.5kFavorites150.9kClicks/ch21kGifts

   This is a very old story. I personally really like the male lead's character; he's a gentle yet very rational hard worker. Although he has a cheat system, he's very clear about his own position. The system is just an aid to his personal career development, not the deciding factor. The relationship between the male and female leads is also very interesting; it's a relationship of mutual support and achievement. (Also, please don't miss this author's "Sinking Boat," a story with a very exciting plot and romance [Let me check it out])

7. 57 听 Became A God In An Eerie Realm After Hearing Players’ Inner Voices 听见玩家心声后在诡界封神 Lan Qiaomu兰乔木Danmei (BL)909k WordsCompleted [The similar-style unlimited-flow novel next door, Infinite Players Retire After Taking Too Much Damage, is complete~] Blurb: Cen Xun is a folklore professor at H University: handsome, young, and the center of attention in every lecture.

   The plot is rather formulaic. The main couple's romance is slightly fresh, the side couple (Tong x Zhou) is quite interesting, and the epilogue is quite enjoyable.

   Both the plot and the romance are quite formulaic, almost like two characters falling in love.

   Because each unit is relatively short, the pacing isn't a major issue. Those who enjoy stories with a brother/dog theme might want to give it a try; the author's other quick transmigration story is similar.

In his previous life, his older brother, the king, was suspicious of and hostile toward him, keeping him far from the royal family from childhood.

    This is a typical example of the author's favorite kind of story where two powerful, arrogant characters fall in love. It's one of her top works I've read. Anyone who enjoys this kind of story should check it out; the overall quality is very consistent. The plot revolves around rebirth, crime-solving, and revenge. Because the world-building isn't very extensive, the story has a beginning and an end, telling a complete tale. The romance between the two leads is relatively smooth, and one detail I particularly liked was that the male lead wears earrings (personal preference). Overall, watching the two protagonists act cool is quite enjoyable.

    The author definitely has a taste for BL (lol). Those who like this kind of story can give it a try. However, the pacing of this book is a bit off, and the character development is a bit overdone.

    This is a very unique story. The author's writing style gave me a slightly suffocating feeling, like a typical office worker (referring to the writing style). It's relatively short, and the main plot revolves around the protagonist being reborn as an emperor. The two protagonists are secretly in love from the beginning, and their subsequent romance is quite touching. The supporting characters are well-developed, and the young emperor's weak and indecisive personality is captured well. Overall, the tone is realistic.

    Curator note

    If other authors seem to feel a sense of dread while writing, it's more like An Ritian is taking revenge on society after being frustrated at work. His writing has a unique, calm, slightly melancholic quality, while the plot is full of melodramatic twists, creating a very distinctive flavor. This particular story wasn't very enjoyable; the author's editing is very obvious, and the revised world-building feels like a patchwork. I mainly wanted to recommend the author's previous work on CP, "Playboy," which is a twisted blend of pure love and melodrama—it's incredibly addictive. (Those who can't handle this should avoid it.)
