Yaoying transmigrated into a novel.... more>>

In the chaotic and troubled times, many nations were at war. Her father happened to be the most powerful of those vying for supremacy, her brother turning out to be the male lead that finally dominated the Central Plains.

As the male lead’s younger sister, Yaoying was ready to accept this benefit that came without her having to lift a finger.

But it turned out that the male lead hated her to the bone, going as far as to have her marry the sixty-year-old grassland tribal chief in place of the female lead.

Yaoying was forced to marry. Wolves in front, tigers in the back—beasts surrounding her—all coveting the lovely-as-a-flower Chinese princess.

At the moment of crisis, the novel’s young and legendary lord who was destined to die young passed through with his troops.

To escape from their clutches, the trembling Yaoying pointed at the sickly lord: This princess fell in love with you at first sight. If you won’t marry, I’ll seek you out with a dowry!

Monk: ….

Murong Yu is a very confident man – until he meets Han Xin.

There’s nothing he cannot get; there’s nothing he cannot destroy.

To let live or not, is all up to him.

He is the future ruler of Great Yan and so it’s only natural that the world should bow down at his feet.

But he had never thought that one day he would lose control of it.

That even his own will would be uncontrollable.

Murong Yu can neither get nor destroy this prisoner of war.

Destiny’s uncaring teasing and humiliations have already become numb to him.

That’s right, he doesn’t have a care in the world.

"Don't be so quick to hate me..." The human-sized c*ckroach, driven back by her scream, stood at the diagonally opposite corner of the room, facing Jiang Yunqing without moving. ... more>>

"Alright, just stay there and don't move, don't rush towards me again!" Its long antennae quivered, clearly indicating the c*ckroach's desire to approach Jiang Yunqing, even though she disliked it. She really detested it.

Considering the varying acceptance level of c*ckroaches, the following is a character exploration snippet:

"I won’t!" He yelled in a loud voice, a tone he had never used before. Startled by his sudden outburst, she stood there, stunned and unsure how to react. The insect's instincts were faster, and he quickly sensed her initial hesitation and the cautiousness that followed in her breath. He had scared her.

"I won't..." Perhaps, after she snapped out of it, she would once again avoid him, and he hurriedly laid down on the floor, exposing his vulnerable belly and pleading for her mercy. "I really don't want to, please, I'm truly scared." As expected, his spineless and pitiful demeanor evoked her familiar look of disgust.

It seemed as if she didn't want to look at him any longer, so she turned around and went back into her room. "Do as you wish," she threw at him like a judgment before shutting the door firmly behind her.

He flipped over and lay on the floor, letting out a sigh of relief. "It doesn't matter if you despise me. Just don't make me leave."

For a long time, he gazed longingly at the door that wouldn't open again tonight, and then the c*ckroach crawled back under the sofa where he belonged. "Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang..." he yearned to sleep under her bed, even though she had long sealed off the space underneath it. <<less
