The Little Peacock's Snake Raising Chronicles
This is a novel that will make you laugh and cry. It's coherent from the beginning to the end with a good pacing along with the world-building. I definitely recommend if you like xanxia novels (need more baihe!). Adorable and naive peacock VS proud and pretentious fake snake makes their dynamic a fun read. This was one of my favorite Baihe Xanxia reads. I wish I could forget this book and re-read it again.
What's Wrong with a Snake That Just Wants to Cultivate Transformation
It may be difficult to get into at the beginning as it's somewhat of a slow burn as the main female lead needs to cultivate and transform but I assure you that it is worth it. I personally really enjoyed her time as a snake before she could transform but oh man once she finally could, it made everything even better. Xanxia enjoyers will most likely enjoy this. The interactions between the two FLs are hilarious and cute. There's a completed translation already done as well.
The Art of Taming the Dragon
Starts off pretty light-hearted and takes an angsty turn later down the road. Cultivation is a focus in this novel and there's a lot more to the plot than you may think at first until you start to uncover all the mysteries. There's plenty of drama to keep you invested and the story is written well.
The Thousand Layers of the Sickly Beautiful Master
Interesting and fun read. It did start to lose my interest near the end but it didn't dampen the overall reading experience. The description does unveil quite abit but the slow burn and world/story building was enjoyable. The disciple is like a puppy for the master and a wolf for everyone else. I found both their personalities being drastically different when towards each other versus others quite cute.
The Soup Given to Her by Meng Po
If you love angst with happy endings, definitely give this a try. This made me happy one minute then sob the next. It's not an overly complex story so the plot may not be thick enough for those that like those types of stories. It was a nice light enjoyable read (for someone that considers angst the best genre). Xiao Mingyu gets into an accident and is given a chance to help her wife continue on without her by using Xu Ruying's identity.
My First Love Regrets Letting Me Slip Through Her Fingers
I need therapy after reading this. Ok for real though if HEAVY toxic, manipulative, and mental breakdowns are not your cup of tea, please steer far away from this. The character and story is so well thought out. The writing is impeccable. It's a complex read involving the past and present veiled with mystery. This is honestly one of the best novels I've read and one of the ones I wish I could forget to experience the rollercoaster it took me on again.
Burn
Beware this will make you want to punch a wall and scream why. There is lots of miscommunication and lack of...well alot from both FLs that will leave you frustrated with them. Overall it was still a good read that I enjoyed with the twists and character complexities. There is a manhua but I believe it may have been dropped. I started the novel after reading the manhua. I can see why this had the baihe world in a chock-hold. Oh also angst, can't forget the angst.
The Whole World is Waiting for Your Heart to Move
Flirty Actress x Possessive Doctor. Light and fluffy read without the typical misunderstandings or miscommunication. Hits the spot. You quite literally HAVE to read this. Unless you hate modern life stories...but you should still try reading it anyway. Even the summary pulled me in alone TT
Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter
A light read that isn't that complicated or thought provoking. Near the end there is quick/short time skips until the happy ending that kind of give it a rushed ending despite the slow development between them throughout the entire book. The tropes and "twists" are pretty obvious and expected. Student x Professor (They're not in the same department but only same school) Age gap It's a decent read if you want something quick and light.
Forbidden to Fall in Love
Junior x Senior then time skip to when they're older. There is some miscommunication and it's abit oneside until Cheng Suran comes to a realization about her feelings. A sweet novel but it's not all fluff and there's definitely an imbalance and toxicity in the relationship at the beginning. The writing is pretty good and lots of drama.
Not overly sexualized ABO. While it does play a huge part for all the characters and the story, it's pretty straight-forward. There's no rollercoaster but it was interesting to read as both FLs using each other for their own benefits with one lead being more trusting than the other yet both end up falling in love. The beginning kind of just threw you in there but I enjoyed so it was difficult to start. It does revolve around Alpha VS Omega hierarchy and court politics as well. Yan Xiao is such a manipulative and scheming lead that's going through fire for her goal! Love it.
Realized I'm actually into the, I turn into a cat my rival takes in and end up falling in love troupe...
1 / ? ch
After reading "What's Wrong with a Snake That Just Wants to Cultivate Transformation", the plot feels lackluster. I'm not a fan of how amnesia is used as part of the plot and feels like it makes the plot forced in a direction when it could have been written better. I thought I would like the trope and premise but after reading 20+ chapters in, I realize I got my hopes up. I will try to give it another chance so I'll leave it at 2* for now even though it was originally a 1*

If I could give myself amnesia to read this again I would...but I'd still re-read it nonetheless.
Playful snake x Aloof rule abiding prodigy culivator that breaks all her rules for her pet.
Cannon fodder x strong protagonist with a dark past. Darkening is inevitable but a humorous and enjoyable read with xanxia.
Strong Two-faced disciple x Sickly master | Seems like a generic dynamic and yet...why did I enjoy it so much
128 / 128 chs
Don't you just love toxic but intelligent FLs with tragic stories that just drag you by the leg on their rollercoaster journey... Oh Lu Mian, the women that you are...
One night stand turns into a model x photographer with showers of miscommunication and frustration and yet it's a beautiful and meaningful story... crazy
Yandere Doctor x Flirty Actress...need I say more. Their love could make the world burn! I typically don't like modern novels but this one was one of the early ones I gave a chance and it got me hooked!!!
Heavy on the slice of life. Just their journey together as classmates & roommates.
Very slow burn, almost too slow. Peak entertainment baihe troupe though. I only -1 star due to the length as I almost dropped it halfway through but it's actually a 5/5 story...hehe

ABO. There is a manhua version as well. Childhood love.
Honestly, I can see how this is controversial. It was a nice read until all the toxic and red flags. I know I like toxic but not these. There is a old version and new version of the later chapters. I recommend reading both as it's confusing without doing so. It did feel difficult to read nearing the point where the Author chose to re-write it.
I LOVEEEED this. Just read it. I would definitely re-read this.
Very light and fluff. Not the worst but something quick to read.
Seems cute but actually unbalanced / toxic junior x senior relationship that time skips to the future and they work through their feelings together
No words. I freaking love this novel...
Chen Xi and Li Zhi roll around and tease each other quite a bit. Even when they fight, they end up tangled with one another (〃ꇴ〃)!
Actually one of my top reads as the intricate story-telling, world building, and character development/backstory is chefs kiss. There isn't a flaw in this and it had me in a chokehold (still does). Enemies to lovers 100/10
12/10 Read. Obsessive but loyal puppy (who's actually strong) x Aloof Master (who's also strong) Pleasant read that kept me interested the whole time without stomping on my feelings.
Both FL are crazy and obsessive in their own way. Their relationship is toxic and against "God's Will" but they want to stay together regardless.
121 / 121 chs
Sci-fi mystery with twists and turns that have me on the edge of my seat. But the fluff and romance between MCs are never forgotten but still feel organic as events escalate.
182 / 182 chs
Intricate world building and relationships between all the characters. The only downside was the ending that felt rushed and completed quicker in comparison the the overall pacing and writing prior. Ning Yuan's writing style is peak. 12/10 would read again.
Recommended read if you enjoyed "The Thousand Layers of the Sickly Beautiful Master" or 病美人师尊的千层套路
