A novel, or manga/manhwa/manhua that isn’t transmigration, rebirth, CEO, or some kind of that stuff. Where the Male lead isn’t some cold-hearted god and everyone loves him. Where the Female Lead actually has a good family and friends. Where the characters aren’t geniuses and make mistakes, they need to be human. Where the character are ordinary, everyday people, with flaws. Does such a novel exist?
Yes. Most normal mainstream novels are like that. Go to the library and there will be plenty of them.
Hokuou Kizoku to Moukinzuma no Yukiguni Karigurashi Rebirth on the Doors to the Civil Affairs Bureau > It says rebirth but "rebirth" plays almost no role.

I could recommend my novel QT: Against My Will. I know it's a QT novel but ARC 2 is like a separate, slice of life story with no reincarnation/ transmigration. So if you want to avoid the fantasy part, you can skip to ARC 2. You can read it on Scribblehub: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/28698/qt-against-my-will/ Or Wattpad: https://www.wattpad.com/myworks/188724422-qt-against-my-will (My MCs are humans, they are just a little bit twisted. FML is a civil engineer while MML... He is a secret.❤️ ) A few comments from my readers at the end of ARC 2: Fuck... This is the most safest realistic tragic love story I ever read. I have read so many tragic live stories. But nothing comes to this much realistic level. It just left a freaking hole in my heart -1998GA12 Found your book by accident.. Damned I cry so hard... Seriously.. Hoping you will NEVER drop down this book.. I will wait no matter how long it takes you to update this.. I just want they hv happy ending.. Thank u so much for creating a story this beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ -DaddyUwa Dear author, i just wanted to know that the end of Arc 2 made me cry a lot and as im typing this, tears are slowly dripping down my face cuz its so sad and like i dont usually cry when i read books but wow, you made me cry -syari- My heart is crying for them. They’re my favorite couple PERIODT. -gummy_bear_lover98 PS: Don't put your expectations too high.
And if I were to recommend a NU novel it would be this: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/my-mister-ostrich/ My Mister Ostrich, a gem I'd never forget. I love the ML (he is not sweet nor cold, he is human) the same goes for MC. I love both of them.
