[Topic] Currently ongoing reading

    The list of novels that I'm currently following, which I don't rate, but find promising:

  • The male partner just wants to be a tool man [entertainment] / 男配只想做工具人[娱乐圈] Very light-hearted and humorous novel. Basically it's wearing a book where MC tries to be a tool man before the protagonist arrives, but of course things don't follow the route right away. MC has a strong personality and doesn't accept any bullshit. MC and ML although start as one-night standers actually quickly develop good humorous relationship of an old couple in love, not realizing it. I find this one so far as very light-hearted and easy read to ease your mind and enjoy the fun.
  • The return of White Moonlight / 豪门白月光归来 Starts with MC waking up without prior 4 years of memories due to head trauma, but realizes that his temperament actually changed from previous sensibility. News of his family leave him shocked. Their strained relationship with his once good family due to his own father deciding to acknowlede illegitimate kid that grew up outside that actually caused MC's mother drowning into depression and later her death. But no one from his family actually took his side, only his cousine that cared for his disappearance for 4 years. The only person who rushes to him as a support is the one to whom belong the lost memories. MC acts very real when he's angry with his family, he is also resolute and strong doing his own thing and not wanting to indulge his family into trampling him.
  • He blew A after wearing cannon fodder 0 / 穿成炮灰O后他A爆了 MC wears into Omega, he was once a genius mechanic creating a bunch of wonderful mecha, but he was disabled and could never realize his dream of driving it. Now he wears into a healthy body, but with low mental and physical strength. He firstly dissolves the marriage contract with his fiance to rush to his dream. The ex-fiance thinks that MC does everything for him, but actually doesn't even realize that person's remperament changed so much. MC is really in love with mecha and to stay in school and prove himself he works hard to realize his aspirations with his own power. ML is not the ex-fiance, but the current top A.
  • I have entire world with god of knowledge in my hand / 学神在手,天下我有 The only novel I can rate already 5/5 no matter how it ends, this one from the author of FOD, surprisingly, since I don't like FOD, but this novel is super exciting :D MC is a super devilish queenly personality, it's always a pleasure to see him arrange things. I also keep a spoiler thread on NU for this novel, because surprisingly it wasn't picked up yet (and it's already nearing 500 chapters). It's really different, has a lot of new ideas on plot twists and world-building, their ABO approach also made me think of writing a note on ABO and Omegaverse pros and cons and ability to be interesting.
    Basically, these four are my main to follow daily. Except the last one they all started right before New Year, so they are all fresh from the oven. Partially it's really hard to follow something on-going, since you have to wait for a daily update wondering if releases will be as steady. During this time I found some authors who unfortunately either went on hiatus or sealed their pen. Which is such a pity.

  1. I heard FOD pays attention to the same kind of things, strong MC, characterisations and world deconstruction/world setting exploration, which really interest me, I'm hoping hard for 学神在手,天下我有 tl! people have picked don't pick up boyfriends from trash bins and trial game of life, FOD is also a much beloved book, so I'm optimistic 😌🙏

    1. FOD is an old story compared to this one, personally I think author worked on mistakes. FOD is basically a collection of stories based on cliche plots and stories taken from different sources. MC and ML there are also very OP, MC is a mega hacker, so he's basically drives with that setting. ML as I remember is more severe than this one, but ML of that cold and domineering kind is a popular trope for many of those years. I may re-read FOD one day to re-evaluate, but I know my impression was bad that it didn't age, with my range of read novels expanding all the time. In settings both novels are really alike, I mean MC is very OP and charming, they both reach pinnacle of life every worlds etc. The biggest difference is MC in FOD is bound by his character, he basically needs to play a character, while MC of this novel is free to do whatever he wants and he does. MC of this novel also touches only scientific research, unlike FOD which is an angel and talented basically in everything tirelessly (like there were singing arcs, acting etc.), MC here is more into one direction - science. Maybe it might sound limiting, but it's really not when you read. And one main thing that pushed me from FOD the fuck away, beasty extras, like fuck no, I hate that, deciding which species to choose which will have more dicks for fun... nope for that from me :'DDDDD
      As for Don't pick up boyfriends from trash bin, I LOVE THAT NOVEL, it's so superb and amazing, just one of a kind :D
