Qiao Nian also thought that her biological parents were poor teachers from Luohe County.

Who knew that her brother drove a Phaeton that was worth three hundred thousand yuan!

Her biological father was also a professor who taught at Tsinghua University!

The big boss of the family of scums became a bootlicker and bowed in front of her grandpa…

Qiao Nian was dumbfounded.

Erm… this wasn’t the same as saying yes!

After being freed from the family of scums, Qiao Nian was able to be herself.

She was the top student in the college entrance examination, a live broadcast star and the heir of an invaluable cultural heritage… Her identities were revealed and when she started to appear on the hot searches in the city, the family of scums turned green.

The anti-fans mocked: What’s the point of trying to fake an image? Aren’t you just sticking to my brother everyday?

Qiao Nian responded: I’m sorry but I already have a match.

Top Brother: @Qiao Nian. Let me introduce her to everyone. This is my sister.

Wealthy Grandpa: My dear granddaughter, why are you working so hard? If you want a bicycle, grandpa will buy it for you!

The rich and powerful in Beijing spread a rumor that Master Wang was hiding a wife in his luxurious house. No matter how much people tried to persuade him, he never took her out to meet anyone. If he were asked, he would say the same sentence. “My wife is from the countryside and she is shy.”

That was until one day when someone saw the noble and cold Master Wang holding a girl’s slender waist while hiding in a corner of a wall and muttering with red eyes. “Baby, when will you give me a title?”

The Pantheon Empire, where the beastmen govern humans.... more>>

A small human woman appeared before Duke Hadeon Lark, a red lion beastman that stood at the pinnacle of power.

A woman known in society for her promiscuous scandals, Elysia Pearlman.

She asked him to make her his mistress,

And offered a contract in exchange for her body’s secret.

“You… d*mn it, what the hell is this?”

“As you can see, my flesh has the power to arouse beastmen.”

Intrigued by the human woman that willingly walked into the lion’s den to be taken advantage of, Hadeon laid down his conditions.

“Swear to God right here that you won’t meet another man while you are my mistress.”

“A, alright.”

“No, that’s not right.”

Hadeon grinned as he handed Elysia the veil he was holding.

“Make a formal oath to God. Before my eyes. We just happened to be in a church, after all.”

“M, make an oath?”

The sound of the old pews creaking echoed in the church.

“I, Elysia Pearlman.”

“…I, Elysia Pearlman…”

“Take the man whom God has paired me with, Hadeon Lark, as my unlawful paramour from this day forth.”

“Take the man God has paired… What?”

Before Elysia could protest, a low and powerful voice rang through the empty chapel.

“I, Elysia Pearlman, take the man whom God has paired me with, Hadeon Lark, as my unlawful paramour from this day forth, to unconditionally weep regardless of his mood, in sickness and in health, for richer and for poorer, till death does us apart, and still belong to him even in death, to which I swear before God.” <<less

In the winter of three years ago, the first locked room mu*der in Japanese history was committed.... more>>

All of the evidence pointed to the defendant. It was certain they were guilty. And yet, they were found innocent and released. Why? Because the crime scene was a perfect locked room no one from the police or the prosecutor's office could solve.

"Since the room was locked, it was impossible for the defendant to have committed the mu*der. It's no different than if they had a perfect alibi." That was the argument of the defense, and that was the argument the judge sided with.

The ruling sent a ripple throughout Japanese society. No matter how suspicious you were or how much evidence you left behind, as long as you managed to create a locked room that no one could solve, you were immune from prosecution. With the common anti-mystery fiction talking point "there's no reason anyone would ever actually commit a locked room mu*der" completely overturned, the rate of locked room mu*ders in Japan skyrocketed.

When the police proved unable to deal with the surge of locked room crime, the Ministry of Justice published an official categorization of all known locked room tricks as an investigative aid. When that proved insufficient, Division Zero of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a police division dedicated solely to solving locked rooms, was created. When that still proved insufficient, locked room detectives, private investigators specializing in locked rooms, were officially licensed by the state and authorized to participate in police investigations. Calling a locked room appraiser, someone specializing in searching buildings for secret passages, is now a common first step in criminal investigations.

On the other side of the spectrum, locked room agents, assassins and crime planners specializing in locked room mu*ders, have become some of the most notorious criminals in Japanese history, and even a cult worshiping the scenes of locked rooms as a way to purify the souls of the deceased has made rapid inroads into Japan.

Su Xuezhen: "???"

It wasn't until she heard more of Gu Hongqing's thoughts that she realized this was a period novel, and their family was the control group for the original book's female lead.

Both families in the book had dual-employed parents. The original book's female lead's family seized opportunities for wealth and became rich and prosperous, becoming prominent wealthy merchants.
