Lin Shuicheng was born with good looks. He had a red tear mole at the corner of his eye that was particularly tempting. ... more>>

The first time Fu Luoyin saw him, he brought him home without even asking his name.

Other people said that Second Young Master Fu had fallen in love at first sight, but only Fu Luoyin knew that the boy before him didn’t need a name, because he was fated to stay by his side as a mere substitute.

Afterwards, he gradually realized that Lin Shuicheng had never asked his name, either.

(Once he knew the truth, the gong shed tears.)

Passerby 1: Are you sure that the research institute’s brilliant, outstanding, stunning top student who’s skilled in the boardroom and the kitchen should really be…your substitute? I recommend seeing an optometrist.

Li Jinglong slowly dragged his body riddled with wounds, releasing a resplendent light from his hand as he kept approaching Hong Jun.

“The living… are passing travelers…”

His low voice resounded through the world, and within an instant, the black fog that enveloped the earth receded before the light.

“The dead… return home without turning back.”

That light is the blazing sun that illuminates the world, stars that twinkle in the night sky, an eternal heart lamp that pierces through the darkness.

“The world…is a temporary inn. Since time immemorial, countless people have bewailed their short, bitter lives…”

Li Jinglong closed his eyes and pressed one hand against Hong Jun’s forehead. A white light diffused with a whoosh, covering the battlefield littered with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Within the shadow of that lamp, the debauchery in Pingkang, the parasol trees of the Exorcism Department bathing in the midsummer sun, the sand and swirling snow in the vast expanse beyond the Great Wall, Ah Tai’s clear singing voice, Mo Rigen and Lu Xu picking leaves in the early morning, Qiu Yongsi’s flying brush strokes that transforms into immortal poems in Li Bai’s cup–

Gu Jia Nian failed the college entrance exam and went to her grandmother’s house in the countryside for summer vacation.... more>>

She accidentally entered a villa covered in creeping plants and inhabited by a recluse known by the villagers as someone who never left their house and avoided the light.

Children even secretly called him a vampire behind his back.

As the vacation came to an end, she did two things: discussing with her parents about retaking the exam and confessing her feelings to him.

One succeeded, the other failed.

Two years later, Gu Jia Nian studied diligently in the competitive Chinese literature program at a prestigious university.

In a literature appreciation class, the professor assigned a reading list, with nearly half of it coming from a rising star novelist—who had won major literary awards with a full-length novel and a series of medium-length novels.

Gu Jia Nian sat in the library at 2 a.m., opening the preface of that full-length novel.

It began:

“Rough start, with over a dozen interruptions due to the erosion of romantic fantasies by harsh reality. Until one day, she knocked on my door, cleared the messy Chinese hawthorn outside, and handed me a box of pastries. From then on, light poured in.”

Guide for newcomers:

The male lead falls for the female lead after she comes of age.

They get together after she retakes the exam.

Six-year age gap, Student-Teacher Relationship (SC).

Told from the perspective of Chi Yan.

After deleting the twelfth draft’s beginning, someone with no sense of timing suddenly knocked on his door.

He opened it with a frown and found a shy high school girl standing outside, with big eyes, fair skin, and a box of cookies in her hands.

Due to family obligations, he reluctantly put an end to his reclusive life and started taking care of this girl who had been crushed by the pressure of the exam.

He let her read at home.

Gave her a key.

Accompanied her to doctor appointments.

Accompanied her on shopping trips.

Comforted her, encouraged her, praised her…

The girl was polite and sensible, but she never called him “brother.”

Finally, as her summer vacation came to an end and she was about to start retaking the exam, she awkwardly confessed her feelings to him.

“…”

Chi Yan glanced at her. “Let’s talk about this after you finish your exam.”

After the second year’s exam ended, Chi Yan sent her a text on WeChat, calculating the time the results would be released.

“How did it go?”

A long while later, she replied, “Well, I did great.”

Followed by another message: “Thank you, Brother Chi Yan.”

Chi Yan, brother.

“…”

Damn, it’s easier to be deceived as you grow older. <<less

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

Seven years ago, on a rainy night, Tang Zhong stood on the steps, holding a newly bought backpack in his left hand, an umbrella in his right, looking down at Yin Chen, and said in a voice colder than the rain falling on him, "Let's not meet again."

Seven years later, on the same rainy night, Tang Zhong appeared below Yin Chen's apartment, soaked and embarrassed, but smiling brightly as he looked up, "Didn't you say that if I had nowhere else to go, I could come find you anytime?"

Tang Zhong's pheromones smelled like fresh grass, even the pouring rain couldn't cover up the scent he carried from others, forcing Yin Chen to retract his hand reaching out to him.

And when they reunited, the damp rain only made the fragrance in the air clearer, as clean as if only Yin Chen had touched it all these years.

The third time, he witnessed him setting fire to the coveted sports car that Qi Xing had longed for. Filled with rage, he impulsively confronted him and ended up getting pinned down.

When a beautiful Omega travels through time and space and into a normal society…... more>>

Shen Tingwei, an Omega who doesn’t know how to drink, emanates the fragrance of cranberry wine from his scent glands.

This time, however, the scent of wine is stronger than usual.

And so, he became intoxicated.

Upon waking, everything seemed unfamiliar and a bit out of sorts.

Enduring the unique circumstances of his Omega state, he walked into a pharmacy with great difficulty. “Pardon me, but I would like one Omega heat suppressor spray.”

The pharmacist was stunned. “What?”

Unable to get heat suppressors, he felt helpless and resorted to looking for a place to stay.

“Hello, can I book a room?” Shen Tingwei asked.

“Please show me your ID,” the front desk clerk replied.

Shen Tingwei handed over his ID, only to see a complicated expression appear on the clerk’s face. The clerk quickly shoved the ID back into his hand.

“Regulations have been strict lately. You cannot book a room without a proper ID. Maybe you should go somewhere else instead,” the clerk said in an unkind tone.

As Shen Tingwei turned around, he heard the person mutter to themselves. “Your gender is ‘Omega’? Then mine must be ‘Casio’! Seriously, fake IDs are so blatantly obvious these days…” <<less

The young master Wei lived for twenty years, and the person he couldn't see clearly was his sworn enemy Shen Yuan. ... more>>

When he was surrounded by glory, Shen Yuan was jealous of him, and always hated him. But when he fell down and had nothing left, Shen Yuan tried his best to save him. He even laughed at Shen Yuan for this.

"Shen Yuan is a narrow-minded person, and some people can only be insulted by me." As Shen Yuan said, he even spent half of his life paving the road for his revenge.

Once reborn, Wei Zan returned to his boyhood. He was still the high-spirited young master of the Wei family, and Shen Yuan was still the jealous, lonely, and sick child.

With the memories of his previous life, Wei Zan changed his attitude. He couldn't help chasing after Shen Yuan's buttocks and made fun of him, by enthusiastically shouting "Brother Shen".

"Is the young master playing tricks on me?" Shen Yuan, a young man, clenched the book in his pale hands, looked at him with flickering eyes, and finally gritted his teeth, "You know that I am a narrow-minded and jealous person."

Wei Zan pecked at the side of his ear, then smiled lazily and said, "But you can't be jealous of others…You can only be jealous of me." <<less

In order to marry a good husband, Liu Yuru had been a model lady for 15 years; but on the eve of her engagement, she was forced to marry Gu Jiusi, a well-known playboy from Yangzhou.... more>>

To marry such a person was to ruin one’s life.

Especially because after marriage, she learned that this person was also forced to marry her.

Liu Yuru was heartbroken, and after locking herself in the room for three days, she came to a realization.

Marrying such a dandy, why should she remain a perfect young lady?

So on the third day of marriage, the famously gentle lady shook her hands, carried a knife, and used all her courage to go to the brothel.

To the drunken Gu Jiusi, she said –

Get up!

After that, Gu Jiusi’s life was full of ups and downs.

Whether he was a miserable dandy or a great official, this woman stood beside him.

She supported him with her weak and delicate body, and told him, “get up.”

So even if he was cut to pieces, he would struggle from the mud, grit his teeth, carry her on his back, and walk through this life.

For the first 15 years of Liu Yuru’s life, she thought she was living only to find a good man.

It wasn’t until she met Gu Jiusi that she understood that a good man would help you realize that you live only for yourself.

This is the story of Phoenix Wisdom King and a Grand Demon just awakened from Hell.... more>>

***

On an ancient battlefield, two armies stood in a stalemate. On one side were the Arhats, Gods, and Buddhas from the Heavenly Realm. On the other side were the monsters and demons from the Blood Sea of the Hell Realm.

The personification of that Grand Demon leaped forward, holding a long sword across his chest. He flew across the battlefield, brazenly cutting in half eleven Phoenix Bone Arrows, each of which was enough to destroy the world.

Then, he arrived in front of Phoenix Wisdom King, standing high above the masses:

“Your Highness, please don’t move—”

“I didn’t come to wage war. I came to propose to you.”

Phoenix was the Buddha’s inescapable Tribulation for thirty-thousand years, whereas Zhou Hui was Phoenix’s redemption that could free him from the fate of his eternal life.

After hundreds of thousands of years of endless light and shadow, this handsome yet devilish man finally emerged from Hell—

To bring Phoenix Wisdom King away from the transcendent Buddhist Kingdom and the boundless Lotus Sea.

“Let me follow you to that world. For you, I’ll be invincible forever—”
