Arc 1: Chapter of the Tongue... more>>

Xie Xishu didn’t know when it started, but he could always feel a strong gaze from behind him.

He couldn’t understand why Qi Wu kept staring at him like that. Even without turning around, he could feel that almost tangible gaze.

Xie Xishu was the class’s famous bookworm, while Qi Wu was known as the school’s notorious troublemaker. There shouldn’t be any intersection between them.

Yet, Qi Wu would always stare at him during class.

Eventually, even after class and after school, Xie Xishu would find a tall, gloomy figure trailing behind him.

When Xie Xishu finally broke down and grabbed Qi Wu in an alley, demanding an answer out of fear, he got a completely unexpected response.

“You’re sweet. You keep giving off a very sweet scent.”

Qi Wu replied in a strange tone.

“I can barely hold back anymore. Everything else stinks so much it’s driving me mad. Only you smell sweet… Hey, don’t worry. I won’t eat you.”

“I just want to lick you.”

Perhaps Qi Wu himself didn’t realize that when he made that absurd request, he was already uncontrollably drooling foul saliva at Xie Xishu.

At the same time, Xie Xishu clearly saw that inside Qi Wu’s lips, which stretched all the way to his ears, there were rows of densely packed, fishhook-like teeth… and a long, forked tongue.

That tongue wavered in the air, twitching nimbly, and with thick saliva, it pressed against Xie Xishu’s neck.

“Mmm… So sweet… $#@%! So sweet…”

The unfamiliar monster let out a murky sigh.

At the moment Xie Xishu screamed and fled, he didn’t know that in the not-so-distant future, he would encounter more twisted and frenzied monsters.

And in that sudden apocalypse, the only one who could protect him was Qi Wu.

The price Xie Xishu had to pay, of course, was to let Qi Wu’s tongue be satisfied.

In the novel, apart from a protagonist who occupies all the heavenly fortune, the essential was the powerful tragic villains. They were either amazing or powerful, but due to the crazy obsession with the protagonist, they became paranoid and insane, and finally became the villain that everyone hated.... more>>

The authors ab*sed their bodies and their hearts. There was no place to take root and no place to be buried. In the end, they became bitter in life. They did not see the light of day, they were not loved, and they did not know any sweetness. The world hated them, shunned them, and showed them no kindness.

The readers cried a lot and begged the author to give them a good ending and not ab*se them. But the unscrupulous authors said: villains, of course, the more miserable the better, the more bitter the better, the more ruthless the better. It is better to break an arm and a leg.

#The worse the readers cry, the happier I am#

However, perhaps because the readers’ resentment was too great, one day these unscrupulous authors suddenly found themselves bound to a system.

System: Please save them.

Authors: Who?

System: Your villains.

Authors: What?!

System pulled things out of his pocket: Come on, this disfigured villain is yours, this villain with a broken leg is yours, and this crazy villain is being criticized…

Authors knelt down and spat out their old blood: Please let me go! <<less

Story 1: Bai Muxing was a once-in-a-century S-class omega with 100% compatibility with all four S-class alphas in the empire.

In his previous life, despite his achievements, he was treated like a toy by numerous alphas due to his unique glands. Nobody cared about his simple wish to lead an ordinary life. Jealousy and scheming brought him to his death in the chaotic currents of the galaxy.

In this new life, Bai Muxing chose to remove his glands and become an ordinary person. With a considerable pension, he arrived at a farming and ranching planet on the empire’s border, starting a carefree life of farming and retirement.

He also entered into an online relationship with a handsome beta netizen, fulfilling his life-long dream of “marrying an honest person.”

Apart from the minor annoyance of a husband, who clung to him like a child, and Bai Muxing’s occasional worries about his back pain, life was generally ideal.

However, everything changed when a scumbag alpha, who had once harassed him, followed him to the farming and ranching planet. To his surprise, his seemingly honest husband broke the S-class scumbag alpha’s leg barehanded. In the heat of anger, his husband revealed his true form, that of the king of an alien race whom Bai Muxing had once fought on the battlefield.

Bai Muxing: …I’ve been deceived into this marriage!

His husband, disguised as a big lion, lay down and said: Meow, meow, meow. <<less

On the day of his cremation, I remembered how much he loved roasted sweet potatoes, so I placed two in his coffin. Then I realized, sweet potatoes need to be cooked before you can eat them, he wouldn't be able to eat them raw.

The people at the crematorium told me that once it went inside, the potatoes would be roasted, and my friend would be able to eat them hot.

And then…the smell of roasted sweet potatoes wafted out from the crematorium furnace.

That night, as I slept, I kept feeling someone pulling on my braid, calling me “Old Six” in my ear.

The only person who would do that was my childhood friend, but he was gone.

【Shy yet seen as a little green tea, a secret crush mistaken for a copycat expert】... more>>

In Li Zhiyi’s eyes, Qiao Xingzhou is a “copycat expert” green tea of the Mingqian Longjing grade.

When Li Zhiyi recently bought a new red shirt.

On the surface, Qiao Xingzhou said, "Brother, you look really good in this shirt."

But behind the scenes, he’s arranging an international agent to buy the same style shirt in green version.

Li Zhiyi: What’s that supposed to mean? Are you saying that little green tea looks better in it than I do?

——

When Li Zhiyi posted a review of a certain movie in his Moments.

On the surface, Qiao Xingzhou said, "Is it good? I didn’t really like this genre."

But behind the scenes, he arranged an additional late-night viewing and even posted a detailed review overnight.

Li Zhiyi: What’s that supposed to mean? Are you saying that little green tea wrote a review more seriously than I did?

When Li Zhiyi was pressured by his family to go on blind dates.

On the surface, Qiao Xingzhou said, "Everyone would like you, Brother."

So, Li Zhiyi noted Qiao Xingzhou as: The Copycat Expert Little Green Tea Who’s Always Clinging to Me!

Well, a green tea should be savored, but unfortunately, Li Zhiyi has no taste.

So all of Qiao Xingzhou's flirtatious glances were wasted on a blind man.

Finally, Li Zhiyi couldn’t hold back anymore: "Must you insist on being a copycat expert?”

Qiao Xingzhou who was also stunned: "Brother, I’m not a copycat expert. I just like you."

Oh, so it turns out the little green tea actually likes me, Li Zhiyi thought.

If that’s the case, it doesn’t seem so annoying anymore.

When I was thirteen, I saw a person leap from a high building, drawing a graceful arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the hard cement ground, emitting a series of dull, crushing sounds as their bones shattered. Their eyes, bulging like a dead fish, and the white brain matter, along with the soft, twisted, and deformed flesh, were all vividly etched in my memory. <<less
