Zhu Ming, a neuroscience genius whose career was derailed by an accident that left him unable to walk, had his dreams of scientific research shattered—and put his future marriage on the line.... more>>

Forced to go on a blind date, he comes face-to-face with the cold and handsome Xi Xianqing.

This proud and haughty jewellery designer has a spiritual form as a green peac*ck that cannot naturally spread its tail.

Xi Xianqing said coldly, “I’ll help you with your aunt, you’ll help me with my spiritual form. A marriage agreement benefits us both, and we can divorce after a year.”

Zhu Ming’s past profession made him drawn to challenging cases involving spiritual forms, and he saw Xi Xianqing as a compelling candidate for experimentation.

Zhu Ming smiled. “Let’s see how it goes.”

Later in their marriage, Zhu Ming developed a highly-effective medicine, which Xi Xianqing took for months, but the peac*ck showed no change.

Zhu Ming devised a new form of mental treatment. After several treatments, the peac*ck remained unable to shake even a single feather.

—Until a certain c*cktail party, the completely drunk Zhu Ming smiled as he hooked his arm around Xi Xianqing’s neck and, in front of the crowd, gave him a passionate kiss that echoed.

Once Zhu Ming sobered up, he was hit with a splitting headache. “…Sorry, I’m really bad at holding my liquor.”

Xi Xianqing remained silent for a while before saying, “Next time, please drink more responsibly,” and then walked away.

Zhu Ming was upset with himself for having crossed the line.

He sighed and looked down through the window, happening upon an expressionless Xi Xianqing in the garden.

—As well as the green peac*ck that was frantically spreading its tail behind him.

A new café had opened downstairs from the company. The shop’s signature item was neither coffee nor cake, but the boss’s good looks.
Jiang Ying, who was biased about appearances, was not careful and had left her heart over there.
Since then, a trip to Cloudside has become a daily ritual. ... more>>

At some point, Jiang Ying checked her bank account and realized that her financial situation from the past few months was something to worry about.
Thus, she said to Yun Xian, “Boss Yun, I must be your store’s biggest customer. Why don't you consider letting me invest in it? Let's make money together.”

Yun Xian glanced at her as he wiped the glass and said in a flat tone, “Forget about investing.”
Jiang Ying felt like she was wronged. “I help with the taste test every time there’s a new product! When you said you couldn’t fall asleep, I thought of ways to coax you to sleep! I even painted the mural on the wall for you! *sigh* If I can't even invest, then I'm at too much of a loss!”
“Oh, it is a bit of a loss,” Yun Xian said when he learned about her reasoning. “Then I can only let you make up for it by being the boss’s wife.”

After graduation, Ling Chen caught the spring breeze of civil service exams and successfully secured a government position—working as an honorable... mortuary makeup artist at the XX Funeral Home.... more>>

One night during his shift, he was called in for an urgent job. A certain "VIP" needed a rushed funeral service, and the generous family handed over a five-figure red envelope.

This VIP is not ordinary person—bodyguards stood watch outside the memorial hall, a thorough body search was required at the entrance, all electronic devices had to be handed over, and a confidentiality agreement had to be signed.

Ling Chen thought, even in death, this guy sure knows how to make an entrance.

Just as his patience was wearing thin, he finally saw the person lying in the ice coffin.

It was none other than film emperor He Jinzhao!

Ling Chen, a huge fan of He Jinzhao, never imagined he’d one day personally "send off" his idol.

With a lip brush, he gently swept over the lifeless lips of the man in the coffin and murmured quietly,

"Is this what they mean by chasing your idol all the way to the crematorium?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a haunting male voice suddenly spoke from behind him—

"Dear fan, this is my first time holding a fan meet at a funeral home too." <<less

The psychiatrist that Lin Anran saw, “In short, that ‘person’ is only a figment of your mental delusion called erotomania. You feel that the other person is secretly conveying love, and is even secretly showing you love in a TV interview, but in fact, you both have no contact at all in reality. Everything is just your imagination.”

The man in suit and tie that Lin Anran saw when he got home, “Ranran, you’re finally back.”

“Erotomania is a rare mental illness in which the patient falls into the delusion that another person (usually someone with a higher social status) is in love with him.” (From Baidu Encyclopedia) <<less

Xie Xizhao smiled, finished his celebratory drink, and replied, "Not tough at all. It’s just beginning."

Half a month later, Xie Xizhao returned to his original body.

Six months later, the entertainment industry witnessed the debut of the strongest dark horse in history—a triple-threat rising to the very top.

Xia Xiqing: I really like you.
