Wizards, history, wish fulfillment, and cautious cultivators. These are books I'm following. I'll remove them if I stop reading.

ㅤㅤI've been reading web novels for twelve years and can't get enough of them. After all these years, I know how painful a reading slump can be. I've tried all kinds of male- and female-oriented fiction, and both have their strengths. I've finally realized the truth: genre doesn't matter. If you can keep reading and connect with it emotionally, it's a good book. By chance, I found a way to help others get through their reading slumps: recommending books. I hope my recommendations can help you, an

A good book needs great ideas, writing, and originality. None can be missing. The impact a book leaves is rated from one to ten hot dogs. The more hot dogs, the more powerful the impact.
Reading What I Like
I read the books I like and add them to this list along the way. I don't want to strain my brain coming up with recommendations, so I'll just write a few things.

In my personal experience, if you're doing heavy physical labor, fatty meat tastes really good, the more oil in your food, the more fragrant it is, and you can't taste anything wrong with any of the dishes. However, after light work or a period of inactivity, fatty meat becomes unpalatable, and one gets tired of it after just a few pieces. Furthermore, one becomes picky about food.
Fast forward to the scene where city management officers confiscate all the lunch boxes 😄
The most important thing in urban novels is that shares shouldn't be given away casually. You just like to show off your generosity, right? Even if you said you'd repay ten or a hundred times over later, I wouldn't call that a flaw. But you insist on giving people shares, oh well. 👍🏻
The very first chapter is enough to discourage you. The promise of a 30,000 yuan compensation for a fatal fall—I could have tolerated it before 2008, but it's been 12 years! You're just fooling those naive, food-delivering enthusiasts living in Beijing's Second Ring Road area, and those who constantly bombard people with sweet content.
In 2008, a boxed lunch at a construction site cost 8 yuan. Was that for the site supervisors? Ordinary workers thought it was too extravagant and couldn't afford it.
Ten years ago in Dongguan, a meal with one vegetable dish and two meat dishes, all-you-can-eat soup, only cost 4 yuan. Two vegetable dishes and two meat dishes cost 5 yuan. This construction site meal costs 8 yuan. How many dishes are there? And you're already this drunk.
Thanks for testing the waters. I was actually interested in watching, but after reading the comments saying that they only borrowed a car and did odd jobs and then only got 30% of the profits, I lost all interest in continuing. Goodbye.
The author treats money like dirt; people say the first three chapters are golden, but this author hasn't even stepped foot in a construction site in ten. Most readers are here for the food, not to read about everyday family dramas.
A delicious braised lion's head meatball, six braised pork meatballs, shredded pork with garlic sauce, and a bone broth—all for only 8 yuan! Author, you're a genius!
I've read half the book and found that all the competitors are involved in underhanded tactics and unethical business practices, basically all portrayed as despicable individuals. I find this repetitive style tiresome; there's no need to depict all the rivals as so despicable. I think portraying the rivals in a more positive light would also advance the plot.
