    My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant - note: she's not completely expressionless, just not interested or not worthy to even make an expression for towards most people.
    1. Urban setting or VR or QT = nope
    2. Not original inhabitant of that world = yup
    3. No children = yup
    4. No marriage from start / sibling relationship even if not blood related = yup / yup
    5. No reverse harem / detective stuff = yup / nope
    6. If romance ML falls in love first and he doesn't force himself on fl = yup / yup
    7. Chinese novels = yup
    I don't understand why you put reverse harem and detective together, though.

    1. Urban setting or VR or QT (Must)
    2. Not original inhabitant of that world Yep
    3. No children Mhm
    4. No marriage from start / sibling relationship even if not blood related yep
    5. No reverse harem / detective stuff the mc's a brute
    6. If romance ML falls in love first and he doesn't force himself on fl he can't even if he wanted to
    7. Chinese novels definetely
    The MC is really expressionless. Like I still haven't seen her with a happy smile.
    Warning: The ML is really weak. Like really really weak. And kind of yandere? I mean, if he could he would've locked the mc with himself. Except he can't, cause he's weak. And the MC is hella strong.

    you should check The Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage. I think it fits your criteria. It also has almost 2000 5-star ratings ( which is really really rare on this site) so check out.

    Bro, I liked the description but is this novel good? Is it worth the time?

    If you don't mind the MC being a Mary Sue and most girls hate her just because, while most boys and men are strongly attracted to her, then it should be a good read for you. She only has one guy she's interested in, though, and he says he doesn't want to restrain the MC's wildness. Translations is good. The story flows well with enough action scenes and not much repetitions to pad the word count.

    ok, if you like evil novel. then comment or just check the page i created for villain/evil novels.
    the kind you want are present there. its a mix up page
    ---
    but still for recommendation i will say try
    Reverend Insanity
    Warlock of magus world
    tower of demonic gods
    Renegade Immortal [ he was a simp earlier, but after his parents death due to his simping, he become ruthless and indifferent, though by the end he become normal again, i mean, ruthless but simp toward his friends/family ]

    pov might differ, but i say, try them. nothing to loose
