They met during the most confusing and painful time of their youth, and even now that they are adults, they have always been by each other's side. Their friendship was strong and stood the test of time like armor. But underneath that thick armor, Ji Sunwook nurtured a love that was not just friendship. Driven by the desperation to leave no evidence as the sole driving force behind his unrequited love.... more>>

He had thought he could hide it for the rest of his life, until Lee Jihoon asked in the fall of his twenty-nine.

"Don't you think it's even stranger that I've never heard you talk about women you've dated all this while?"

Realizing that he could no longer hide it, Ji Sunwook meekly confessed that he was dating a man and finally put an end to their relationship with the confession he had been putting off.

Lee Jihoon, who came to catch Ji Sunwook, denied that conclusion. He said that Ji Sunwook didn't love him, so this couldn't be the end for them. Not wanting to believe it, he blocked Ji Sunwook’s way out saying he would prove it.

"What kind of coward abandons the one he loves and then runs away?"

Guided by Lee Jihoon's firm hand, the two stood on a road they had never been on before. Only when standing at the edge of friendship from which no one can retreat did they realize that they were facing something that made them uncertain whether they were proving that it was love or proving that it was not. <<less

"For some people, that person, he's neither a temptation nor a flutter of the heart; he's simply fate. No matter how much you try to evade, even if given ten thousand chances, one would still choose to dance on the edge of the knife and forsake the love on the shore."... more>>

For Shen Li, that person is Lu Changting.

Author's Guide:
Both perspectives of main and supporting roles are included, no breaking, no antagonism, a story about unrequited love, perhaps cliché, but unlikely to be overly tragic, with a Happy Ending.
If there are any similarities to other works, it's probably akin to Andersen's fairy tales.
Open to any feedback on writing style and plot, but not interested in nitpicking. If you dislike character portrayals, please exit at the top right corner.

The washed-up magician Zong Jiu transmigrated into a horror, infinite flow novel about a survival show, taking the place of the cannon fodder who died tragically in the first evaluation round. This show was very interesting. Out of the tens of thousands of people, only a hundred people could survive, and the c-position (strongest contender) could even get a universal wish ticket.... more>>

If it were someone else, they’d probably be scared to death.

No one expected that Zong Jiu was not only unafraid, but also caused a sensational stir, shamelessly showing off his tricks the whole way.

Once his tricks stopped, and his life could be considered safe and sound, he ended up in a rivalry with the novel’s big villain.

Today you try to get at me, tomorrow I’ll get you back, back and forth, it’s pretty fun, heh.

As a result, though it was just playing around, one time they got carried away and really did end up sleeping together. Watching the nemesis who was pressing him to the ground, Zong Jiu lazily lifted his gaze. “If you want to kill me then kill me, don’t speak nonsense.” Even when at a disadvantage, he showed no trace of fear, and actually continued to provoke him.

That person used his ice-cold finger to trace his ear, and the action heading toward the aorta suddenly stopped.

“What a pity. I’ve changed my mind.”

—

He was once very willing to personally give Zong Jiu death. Every day, he used to regret not gouging out his flesh, personally snapping his neck. But after this person fell into his hands, another, more urgent desire grew like weeds.

Compared to winning or losing, he would rather see him crying and panting, with eyes red, begging for mercy. <<less

According to popular legend, the war god of Da Liang Huo Wujiu was once captured by the enemy country. His meridians were severed and both his legs broken before he was thrown into prison. In order to humiliate him, that dissolute ruler even gifted him to his cutsleeve brother as a concubine.... more>>

General Huo suffered a great deal of humiliation and insult. He bided his time for three years before the cicada shed his skin and he escaped back to Da Jing. After treating his crippled legs, he led his army in three months to storm the enemy’s capital, slaughter its emperor, raze its capital, and finally beheaded that garbage cutsleeve, hanging his head on the city walls for three whole years.

Since then, the world has been united.

——

Jiang Suizhou, a history department graduate advisor at a certain university, received a dissertation which used these unofficial histories of Huo Wujiu as their basis, and criticized the student to no end.

When he opened his eyes again, he had transmigrated into that cutsleeve prince from the stories.

There were lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere. A servant came, sending word that the disabled general of the enemy state had already entered the prince's manor in his wedding sedan.

Facing down General Huo, who had been tortured to the verge of death, dressed in red wedding clothes, glaring balefully, Jiang Suizhou only then knew - these wild stories could also come true.

And cause him to be beheaded for public display, his head hung on the city walls for three years.

Jiang Suizhou’s only option was to provide for General Huo well.

The overt and covert attacks of the imperial court, the witless ruler's every possible humiliations -- he grit his teeth and absorbed it all, all in the hopes that in three years time, he could but keep this head of his.

Of course, he didn’t dare to even dream of asking this 9 ci* tall “concubine” to actually serve him.

However, before the three years was up, General Huo’s legs actually healed on their own.

Not only did he slaughter the useless ruler and unified the country, but he also forcefully blocked him in the room and insisted on fulfilling his duty as "concubine."

Tang Bai was born into a wealthy family. His body was soft and slender, and he loved to act spoiled. His family searched far and wide to find him a handsome and rich prospective fiancé.

No wonder the love-filled bento that he worked super hard to make was rejected by his prospective fiancé who didn’t even look at it. Tang Bai’s eyes reddened as he turned around. He saw that Xie Ruheng was eating the horrible tasting training meal. How could the future light of the omegas eat this kind of devil’s cruise that was fed to the pigs?

Tang Bai shyly said: “This was personally made by me. Us omegas need to pay attention to our diet and take care of our bodies~”

Xie Ruheng: ……?

The first time Xie Ruheng saw Tang Bai, he thought that even when this omega cried, he was still like the omega of his dreams. Although Tang Bai was virtuous, delicate, beautiful, and cute, he already had a prospective fiancé!
