Xiao Yu reaches a turning point in her life during this uneventful year, welcoming new romantic experiences and renewing old ones.... more>>

The sounds of that summer, when they were in school, reverberate in their ears once more, along with the screaming of a caterpillar that fell on their garments and the laughing of that male classmate who managed to flick it away.

Xiao Yu was dazed and thought she was eighteen again. As she came to, she noticed the man sleeping next to her.

Well, Xiao Yu had two new love alternatives in this boring year after a long period of singledom.

Charlie Chaplin’s poem “AS I BEGAN TO LOVE MYSELF” is the source of the title.

Gentle reminder:

1. Light drama, everyday slice-of-life, and main romance.

2. No character in this story—regardless of gender—is idealized, flawless, or one-dimensional. It is not advised for people who have strong moral convictions, OCD, or a weak disposition.

3. There are numerous tens of thousands of words in this work, all of which are free. I’ll be writing it till it’s finished, and new chapters will be released every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

“Chu Zaizhou, known as the ‘Gan Emperor’, dominates the gaming world. One day, he stumbles upon a game called ‘Savior.’... more>>

To uncover all hidden achievements and side quests, Chu Zaizhou creates hundreds of alternate accounts, guiding each other through the plot.

#I am the one who brings about the end; I am the one who saves; and I am the one who loves and kills 😀

#Chu Zaizhou: That’s satisfying!

After a nap, the game becomes a reality.

‘What should I do if I wake up as the Savior?’

‘I haven’t activated any core skills!‘

To survive with his powerless main character and save the world, Chu Zaizhou announces the establishment of the ‘Supernatural Academy.’

All students, teachers, and even janitors are his alternate accounts.

In dimension D619, paranormal events spread, and in the midst of despair, a Supernatural Academy emerges!

They are incredibly powerful and adept at dealing with bizarre situations.

Chu Zaizhou: Just muscle memory from all that gaming.

They unite against external threats, with any spies sent their way meeting certain deaths.

Chu Zaizhou: A bunch of alternate accounts; bring it on!

Internally, they wield their weapons against each other. The cold and aloof ‘Holy Master’ oversees the compassionate ‘Prisoners’; ‘Twins’ destined never to meet due to a curse; ‘Oliver’ singing for ideals dying in the thorns of their companions…

Chu Zaizhou: Just random character settings—

…

Passerby A: So, this ancient school has been guarding us for so long…

Passerby B: Oh my god, I’m going to bang my head against the wall for locking up Teacher Lu. He’s so gentle; why lock him up?

Passerby C: Don’t go! He’ll laugh and break your waist!

Passerby D: Quickly check the trending posts and the backgrounds of these big shots… spitting blood.jpg

As the world improves, people start speculating about the identity of the unseen principal.

At some point, rumors spread:To help the world overcome challenges, the principal sacrifices himself, merging with the school. He is the leader who lights the torches at night, a deity walking among mortals.

[Congratulations! You’ve achieved the ultimate personal achievement—ascending to godhood! ]
Chu Zaizhou: … Is there a possibility that I just want to stay at home and play games? <<less

The first time single Song Yingying was confessed to was on a bustling summer night. She was brought to the playground in a daze, surrounded by heart-shaped candle formations. A crowd of onlookers, unfamiliar but enthusiastically cheering, shouted, "Say yes to him, say yes!" She, feeling overwhelmed, with her scalp tingling, curled up her hands and feet, her toes almost tearing through the soles of her shoes, mentally erecting a Great Wall of China on the spot. ... more>>

Just as she was contemplating how to gracefully refuse, a figure wielding a fire extinguisher rushed in and extinguished all the candles with great vigor. Wearing a school uniform, Gao Minghe slung his bag over his shoulder, holding the fire extinguisher, and looked at her with a face full of frustration: "My dad said, no early romance."

That year, there was a disaster in Jiangcheng, and the boy who crawled out of the inferno stood in a dark corner, gazing at the world.... more>>

He was cold, paranoid, and withdrawn—the most dangerous thing in the night.

Time went back, and before that fierce young man could make a big mistake, a girl suddenly appeared in his life.

She said she was homeless and wanted to stay by his side.

She was very well-behaved and had a sweet smile.

That day, when Gu Huaibi returned home, he saw his pants floating by the window and walked into the room with a gloomy expression.

"Who allowed you to touch my things? Did you think I wouldn't dare beat you up?"

Bianbian was doing her homework and said in a soft voice, "If you change your pants, you need to wash them."

Since then, Gu Huaibi's life went from smoking, drinking, and fighting to sending her to school, scratching his ears while tutoring her, and... hiding his trousers.

On the day she packed up to leave, Gu Huaibi rushed home under the rain and blocked the door, his eyes cold and gloomy.

"You promised to accompany lǎo zi for a lifetime; now you want to run?"

"I should go home now," Bianbian said uneasily.

Gu Huaibi pressed the girl against the wall, pinched her chin, and looked at her soft lips.

"I'm your home." <<less

Although Cheng Shan had a secret wish that the five elderly gentlemen would depart, fate intervened and brought a significant character into the Cheng family.... more>>

Shan Cheng:… It’s becoming a little too exciting.

In other families, the elders are called scholars, and they provide knowledge on morality, wisdom, manners, and virtue. The instructor in her family frequently assigns students to conduct errands for them, going above and beyond the call of duty.

Their masters in other families place a strong emphasis on tradition and instructor respect. They’re always plotting to take their teacher’s place and undermine their teacher’s efforts in her master’s case.

Cheng Shan once made the following hidden calculation in a desperate scenario: “In this critical situation, I should seize any opportunity and latch onto someone influential to find a way out.”

Han Luo grumbled, “No turning back; there’s no one in this world who can board my ship and then leave.”

The original owner was abandoned by suitors due to her overweight and lazy nature. She married a man rescued by her father along the way, but continued to torment him, forcing him to work hard despite his injured legs, leaving him permanently disabled and wheelchair-bound for life.

However, Pei Li, who transmigrated into this world, knows that the bedridden man in front of her will later escape from the Pei family and personally establish a commercial empire, becoming the biggest villain on the original book's female protagonist's path to wealth.

Looking at the dilapidated adobe house, the impoverished family, and her own out-of-breath body, Pei Li thinks...

"Fat? Can't I lose weight?!"
"Commercial empire? I can start one too."
As for being the villainous boss? "Can't I just deal with him and get rid of him?!"

The cat, who had seen him rush to the front to play with the ghosts, couldn't help but express a sincere question, "???"

Chu Xia is a student at the top university in the Alliance, and her hobby is playing romance games in her spare time.... more>>

Due to an unexpected financial need at home, Chu Xia plans to sell the second-hand game items she bought through frugal living for a gaming experience on the Star Network. However, when logging into the game forum, she unexpectedly comes across a post.

【Dog Man Killed Me 8 Times, 8 Times in Total! I’m here for romance, not to be stabbed!】
Of course, what attracts her is the first five words: [High Payment for Substitute Player].

Chu Xia clicks in and is taken aback.

——50,000.
She can’t sell her second-hand game items for this price.

Rich lady seeks a hug!!

…
【The Alliance’s pursuit is relentless, and the young man, in a rare state of embarrassment, carries a fierceness as if a beast forced into a desperate situation. But as he gazes at the woman still following him, a gentleness incompatible with his entire demeanor surfaces in his eyes at this moment.

——’Foolish.’
His lips move, but he ultimately doesn’t speak.

Everything concludes the moment they enter the c*ckpit, with the familiar sound of a gun being loaded ringing in their ears. The young man turns his head in astonishment.

It’s the weapon he gave her, the aiming posture he taught her step by step.
The woman still wears a gentle smile on her face, her voice gentle, “Alliance Investigator, codenamed ‘Starfall.’】

Chu Xia sends the ending CG, and there’s no sound from the other side for a long time. Just when she’s nervous, she hears a burst of laughter like a duck quacking in her earpiece.

“Cough, sorry, I’m too excited… um, no, I’m just very satisfied.”

The sound of the final payment arriving also satisfies Chu Xia.

On the other side, a cautious inquiry, “Master, are you considering taking another order?”

——Professional substitute player, I have the BE you want.

1. Fall in love with a paper man, as the title suggests, it’s a BE!
2. Not a soothing story, it leans toward melodrama, may involve various deaths and ancient tropes, be prepared for some leg-cutting.
3. Soft sister protagonist, if you want to see the female lead dominating, don’t enter, it’s melodramatic!

Emphasizing again: It’s not a story with a strong female lead, but a guide for a female protagonist in a game, the key is to guide men, not kill husbands for enlightenment!
