Looking for manga/novel recommendations

I'm looking for new manga/novels to read. Since I don't really know how to describe what I want, I will put a list of what I like below, and please recommend something similar to these mangas.
If possible, please recommend something less well known since I want to discover something different.
And I would prefer manga/novels that are finished, but I can accept recommendation of ongoing ones.
Chinese novel/manhuas are fine as well. (I can read Chinese.)
No Shoujo/Josei/Yaois, please.
(I know my list mostly consists of Yuri mangas, but non-yuri is okay too.)
A list of genres I don't want to see:
Harem, Historical, Horror, Martial Arts, Mature, Smut
Other genres are generally ok for me. (For example, I can accept either Action or Slice of Life, they are both fine for me.)
Here are some finished mangas that I read and liked:
- Haru and Midori / Haru to Midori
- the main Puella Magi Madoka Magica / Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica manga series
2A. Puella Magi Madoka Magica / Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica
2B. Puella Magi Madoka Magica - The Different Story / Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica - The Different Story
2C. Puella Magi Madoka Magica - Wraith Arc / Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica - Majuu Hen
2D. Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Movie -Rebellion- / Gekijouban Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Shinpen: Hangyaku no Monogatari - I Want to Cry With You on Thursday. / Mokuyoubi wa Kimi to Nakitai.
- Looking Up to You / Miageru to Kimi wa
And here is a list of ongoing mangas that I have read a bit and liked (but I will wait until they're finished to properly read and judge them):
- A Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow / Nettaigyo wa Yuki ni Kogareru
(Currently Finished Volume 6) - My Wish is to Fall In Love Until You Die / Kimi ga Shinu made Koi wo shitai
(Currently Finished Volume 2) - Crescent Moon and Doughnuts / Kaketa Tsuki to Donuts
(Currently Finished Volume 1) - Kimi to Tsuzuru Utakata
(Currently Finished Chapter 7) - All Because of You / Zenbu Kimi no Sei
(Currently Finished Chapter 11, I know this contains some yaoi elements, but I can tolerate them in this manga, I just don't want something that's largely or exclusively focused on yaoi) - Sakura-chan and Amane-kun / Sakura-chan to Amane-kun
(Technically abandoned, finished every chapter available)
Thanks in advance!

Considering you have no specific preference at all, if you are looking for romances you could check out my lists (especially the completed one) - I should still sit at ~95% romance manga.
Just click on my name and the completed link in my profile.
I rated most of the things I read, so just start with the highest rated ones (10 and 9.5).
