Upon realizing that his degree in an unpopular field of study might present challenges in his job search, Qi Chen approached the task with a sense of apprehension. However, when he stumbled upon a recruitment post, he instantly sensed that something was amiss. ... more>>

The job position advertised was for a Cultural Relics Restorer, but as Qi Chen read through the listed job requirements, he couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion and disbelief.

The requirements were as follows:

1. Preference will be given to candidates who possess extensive knowledge of various metal antique restoration techniques.

2. Strong mental resilience and the ability to swiftly adapt to unexpected and surprising circumstances are highly desirable traits.

3. Candidates must possess the capacity to defend themselves and be comfortable with living life on the precipice (This requirement is of utmost importance).

Perplexed, Qi Chen couldn't help but wonder about the perplexing final requirement, which seemed completely unconventional and out of place in the context of cultural relics restoration. <<less

As Zong Yan sat in the classroom, he always felt like the odd man out. His body was there but his soul had sneaked out the window. He wanted to do anything, wanted to be anyone, as long as he wasn’t himself.... more>>

He had a cool and unbelievable superpower:

He could extract different persona cards from the void with his bare hands. With a high enough “SAN” value, Zong Yan could become an entirely different being. Superpowers, ancient gods, eldritch powers, even… an Outer God.

Soaring above the dome of the magical city, he was the free-flying son of the wind.

Strolling through the rain-soaked, foggy streets of London, he was the secretive and unpredictable night watchman.

Walking in the extravagance and glamour of New York, he was the sun god who held the light in his hands.

Diving into the geometric city of R’lyeh, he was the indescribable king.

In the gorgeous and colorful world of dreams, he was the original belief in the universe.

Early to bed, early to rise, going to school on time, working late to save the world. A senior at Qingyang High School by day, honors scholar at Miskatonic University by night. Investigating unusual events all over the world during summer and winter vacation, battling wits and courage with evil gods, dedicated to preserving peace and saving a faltering world.

Pretentious Genius x Cute, IQ of 190 – Zhou Yuan.... more>>

The question he thinks about everyday is how to convince his parents to let him skip grades and distance himself from groups of little kids.

One day, his tablemate changed. His new tablemate is almost like a little snail – does everything slowly. She looked at him carefully and wanted to talk to him, but she hesitated to speak. He was curious about what this little snail wanted to do.

One day, she finally mustered up her courage and whispered, “I…I want to be good friends with you.”

On the first day of school, Hua Miaomiao remembered what her aunt had told her: make a good friend. <<less

Legend has it that Ji Yushi was this kind of genius.

In addition, it was said that he was gay and very beautiful.

As soon as the news that he was going to support Tianqiong’s seventh squad broke out, it sent everyone buzzing.

Everyone knew that the captain of the seventh squad, Song Qinglan, was a hoodlum and deeply homophobic.

He not only relied on his super-powerful abilities to become the dark horse on the battlefield in less than two years, but he also hates it when those at the top forced a flower vase* into his squad.

Sure enough, Song Qinglan announced in front of everyone, “Useful? Us brothers are going out there working ourselves to the bone, we don’t need a little genius who can only speedread quantum waves!”

Later.

The squad was forced into a dire situation during their mission.

That beautiful little genius calmly continued, every gunfire hitting the mark, his fighting power peaking.

Song Qinglan begged in front of everyone, “Adviser Ji, stay.”

In the end, he added, “I’ll work myself to the bone for you.”

*****

Ji Yushi had a secret.

He would often be awake at night, suffering from memory overload and recurring nightmares.

There was only one thing that could let him fall asleep peacefully.

And that was Song Qinglan.

But there's a gangster stutterbug that won’t even take mercy on a crazy person, oh my god. Where are his morals?

Ever since I first met Xue Yaozu at the karaoke parlour where I work part-time, I started seeing him all the time. This self-proclaimed ‘old classmate’ definitely has some hidden, nefarious motive up his sleeves!

Why else would he ask about my job, where I live, and even if he can help me??? Not to mention the fact that he keeps trying to assure me that he’s not a bad guy! Sus! So sus!!!! Red alarms blaring type of sus!! <<less

Seeing You Zhengping, Yu Hua puts the frying pan on the switched-off electric stove and wipes his hands on his apron. “I wanted to save on the electricity bill.” 

You Zhengping: …

The entire world’s most awesome Destroyer is his husband.  <<less
