The Ordinary Man Is Actually... 庸人还真
More or less, this is the story of an ordinary but far-from-vulgar little man who somehow comes upon a fortuitous opportunity. From struggling just to survive, he becomes a superhuman who lives life to the fullest, roams wherever he pleases, and eventually hopes to attain immortality. This story is fun because the protagonist is a fascinating person. This book takes its time, but its flavor is rich and mellow, like a pot of Cantonese soup simmered slowly over a low flame.

✨✨✨✨ Jiulong Book Pavilion ✨✨✨✨
There are actually lots of high-quality novels on Qidian. Some are hugely successful, while others get more modest results. I'll recommend books that I personally think are good. If you're interested, please give them a favorite (⸝⸝⸝ᵒ̴̶̷̥́ ⌑ ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀⸝⸝⸝) (I mainly read fantasy, historical, and urban fiction. I read a little sci-fi and xianxia, and not much horror or military fiction.)
