In the capital's elite social circles, rumors abound about Wen Yu's ruthlessness. Even the Emperor, upon hearing these tales, has repeatedly nodded in agreement!... more>>

Wen Yu, upon learning of this, responded with a cold smile: From a young age, her mother was mu*dered, her grandmother showed no affection, and her father offered no love. She was the target of envy and constantly schemed against. After much hardship, she finally secured a good husband, only to find her marital home a chaotic mess!

Should she play the innocent fool? If so, would a husband of exceptional talent and beauty, intelligent and considerate children, a devoted mother-in-law, and the title of Duchess simply fall from the sky?! In her past life, the Duchess met a miserable end!

Our protagonist first sets her sights on the male lead, unceremoniously claiming him as her own. After marriage, she employs every tactic imaginable: throwing herself into his arms, playing hard to get, alternating between gentle affection and playful dominance, expressing care while subtly tormenting…

From then on, the exceptionally handsome, ruthless, yet capable Fifth Young Master Qi, whose emotional intelligence borders on naive innocence, is repeatedly berated by the Emperor, who points a finger at him and scolds, "You spineless fool! What kind of life is this?! Divorce her immediately! Don't be afraid, I will support you!"

Fifth Young Master Qi blushes slightly: Actually, this life… isn't so bad…

This story portrays a strong female lead who makes every effort to achieve happiness.

***

Overlooked and undervalued, Wen Yu, the legitimate daughter of the Wen family, endures a life of quiet suffering.

On her fifteenth birthday, tragedy strikes, setting in motion a chain of events that culminates in her agonizing death. Miraculously reborn, Wen Yu returns to the day it all began, armed with the bitter memories of her past life and a steely resolve to change her fate. This time, she won't be a pawn in her family's games.

She will reclaim what is rightfully hers, expose the hypocrisy and cruelty of those who wronged her, and forge a new path for herself.

But as she navigates the treacherous landscape of family politics and builds her own power, she must confront not only her past enemies but also the unexpected attention of powerful figures who see her as a valuable asset in their own games.

Will Wen Yu succumb to her thirst for revenge, or can she find a way to break free from the cycle of pain and create a different future for herself? <<less

【Time Travel + Workplace Competition + No Lazing Around + Ambitious Female Lead】... more>>

Overachiever Shen Wei traveled through time and found herself as the lowest-ranking maid in the grand residence of the Yan Prince.

The Yan Prince held a prestigious position, but his consorts were all content to live dull lives. The noble-born princess consort was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a life of monogamy; the reincarnated woman was utterly disillusioned with the Yan Prince and had given up on striving for anything; and the other timid concubines dared not make a move...

The queen of workplace competition, Shen Wei, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to outwork these unambitious slackers!

...

The Yan Prince had grown accustomed to the stagnant atmosphere in his harem, until a particularly skilled courtesan appeared.

This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.

Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.

Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...

After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"

Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"

Living is all about retirement!

The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections! <<less

I’m a fake bride.... more>>

Diello Argenta’s name engraved on my back indicated that I was his soulmate… but I was a fake.

One day, I possessed the unscrupulous villainess’ body inside an adult novel.

Is there any way I could survive?

…Contract marriage!

I’ll be his wife and act the part to protect his purity until the real one appears. So when the Duke of Argenta awakens his power, he will destroy my villainous family.

While becoming a fake couple with the innocent Diello Argenta, acting sweet day and night…

“If your soulmate appears, it’s time to end the contract.”

Hearing that, Diello, the Duke of Argenta, gave me a long look.

“When a Ferro dies, a new Ferro will be assigned.”

As he grabbed the tip of my chin, the distance between us shortened.

“…I’ll kill them until it’s you.”

What’s with him?

Out of nowhere, he started obsessing over me.

"Sara Rostem! As of today, you are expelled from the party!"... more>>

There was no grandiose event, and I signed the dismissal notice that was presented to me.

The reason for my dismissal was a love affair with Al, the leader of the party.

It was a shame because it was a pretty good workplace, but I was a grown adult (around 30).

I quietly received my retirement money and said goodbye to the friends who had taken care of me for the past three years.

I kept the fact that I was a saint from another world a secret until the very end.

"Well, I guess it can't be helped now that I'm fired. I'll go eat some delicious fish in the east."

As I continued on my carefree journey, I rescued a traveler who was being attacked by a monster.

Koichi Sato got a job at a black company and worked hard.... more>>

However, in his mid-30s, his body and mind broke down and he ended up hospitalized.

Although Sato was empty in both body and mind, he found a dream while hospitalized.

That dream was to “live a slow life in the countryside as a second life.”

His salary was not high, but Sato, who had no time to spend money as a corporate s*ave, had saved up a decent amount, so he used his savings to move to the countryside.

Just as he was about to take a step towards that wonderful dream, he was unexpectedly transported to another world.

Sato thought that he had been completely abandoned by luck, but the people in the other world were far kinder than any of his acquaintances who were always harsh, and on top of that, he was given a “god skill” when he was transported.

That skill was called [Otherworld Agriculture] .

It was a skill that allowed him to convert the crops he grew into NP (Agricultural Points), and by using that NP, he could exchange it for anything.

Sato decided to use this skill to live a slow life in the countryside, something he couldn’t do in Japan, and took a big step in another world toward his new dream. <<less

Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly…

The Grand Duke, Lloyd Cardence Valentine, arrived and whispered.

“Should I kill everyone here?”

“If you need me, just call me. Your song will always reach me, wherever you are.”

In the end, Aria called the devil, bringing death to all those present, along with herself.

“Let’s fall to hell together.”

And with that, Aria breathed her last and died… only to return to her 10-year-old self.

Now that she had a second chance at her life, Aria was determined to change her fate, as well as the cruel fate of her saviour, Grand Duke Valentine.

And so… Aria proposed to him with a marriage contract.

She sold her soul to the devil and vowed to protect him.

[Marry me.]

Aria extended her hand and gave him the contract.

[Let’s get divorced in 10 years…]

The young duke took the contract from her hand.

“So, where should I stamp the seal?”

However, as the story is about to start, I know that the villain’s family is looking for a fake contract daughter-in-law to pretend to be pregnant to delay the death declaration of their missing eldest son. If I take on that role for just a few months, I could earn a lot of money.

I was planning to live quietly as a dutiful fake daughter-in-law…

“If you stay here, I’ll give you all of Ekian’s inheritance.”

But the Duke, my father-in-law, likes me too much.

“Why solve everything with money? How about adopting her and remarrying her?”

The Duchess, my mother-in-law, wants to mess up the family registry.

“You did marry my brother, right? You won’t leave if he comes back, right?”

Even my brother-in-law, the villain of the original story, clings to me!

Meanwhile…

“They said after a while, they’ll divorce me and find me a good remarriage prospect personally.”

“…Remarriage? You mean to marry again?”

The head of the information guild, whom I used to sell information to, is acting strangely.

“That husband… he might come back.”

What nonsense is this? According to the original story, the eldest son of the villain’s family remains missing.

Lin Xiangnan, having just transmigrated, found her family embroiled in a heated argument about going to the countryside on her first day. Initially, she thought, "It's just going to the countryside, right? I have billions of resources in my space, I'm not afraid of struggling in the countryside!"

After helping her second maternal uncle farm for two days, she changed her mind: "Going to the countryside is impossible. I'm just lazy and gluttonous, I can't stand any hardship."

To avoid going to the countryside, she had to face arranged marriage. Her eldest uncle enthusiastically recommended the handsome military officer next door, "Gu Zhenhua was a bit of a scoundrel when he was young, but he's much better now."

Everyone knew how reckless Gu Zhenhua had been in his youth. Even though he was now a military officer, no one dared to mess with him. <<less

I found myself reincarnated in a twisted novel where the monstrous male lead locks up the heroine. Worse yet, I’m the third candidate for his bride.... more>>

And to top it off, this happened before the fourth bride candidate—the actual heroine—arrived. In the original story, my character was supposed to have died by jumping off to avoid marrying him!

Some might say I should just disappear to make way for the male lead and heroine to meet, but…

‘Hmph! Don’t make me laugh!’

I’m determined to survive, grow old peacefully, and be surrounded by kids and grandkids. But first, it looks like I’ll have to marry this so-called ‘monster’ of a man…

“You must be fearless. Do you even know what’s under these clothes before talking so big?”

“Amazing abs?”

“……”

“A broad chest? A lean, defined waistline? Or maybe…”

The ‘monster’ duke’s face was so flustered, he instinctively checked to make sure his buttons were still fastened. His notorious reputation that kept others from even daring to make eye contact suddenly seemed laughable.

‘That modesty… I kinda like it.’

But not everything could be solved by enjoying a sweet (if slightly chaotic) honeymoon with my handsome yet reserved monstrous husband.

Because in the novel’s original ending, the male lead turned into a monster, killed everyone—including the heroine—and brought about the end of the world!

“God! You’re watching, right? I’ll stop the world from ending, so could you just give me a hint or two?”

Finally, there was a day when God asked him, “What would you do if I appear before you?”

Si Sheng knelt on one knee and humbly offered his loyalty. However, he realized at this time that he had a deeper… wilder ambition in his heart for God.

Bad news: Xu Yanmiao traveled back to ancient times, but he himself is lazy and uninterested in anything but internet cybersecurity, which is useless in ancient times.... more>>

Good news: He's bound to a system.

Bad news: The system is called the Gossip System, not the fortune-telling kind, but the kind that contains other people's private information and scandals. Utterly useless.

More bad news: This system is also glitchy, and the extent of the bugs is unknown.

Even more bad news: This body is that of a minor official who can attend court meetings, while Xu, the time traveler... doesn't understand the classics, can't write with a brush, and is at risk of being exposed for cheating in the imperial exams.

Xu Yanmiao: "..."

Forget it, just lie low, wait to die, maybe dying quickly could lead to another time travel.

...

In the court, the emperor was furious about state affairs, and the courtiers trembled in fear.

Xu Yanmiao pretended to listen attentively but was actually focused on browsing the Gossip System.

[Wow, the emperor just took in a 16-year-old noblewoman yesterday! A beautiful addition! He's getting stronger with age! And he was tossing and turning in bed all night but still has such a powerful voice now! Amazing!]

[This noblewoman used to be the crown prince's concubine! And the crown prince even knows how to write passionate love letters!]

[Wow wow wow! The crown prince sneaked into the grandpa's harem... hiss—got intimate while the old emperor was attending court! Do it quickly! Why isn't there any video...]

[Huh? Why is there no sound?]

Xu Yanmiao cautiously raised his head and glanced around.

[What happened? Why is everyone kneeling? Where's the emperor?]

—The emperor went to catch adultery in the harem.

*

The "imperial exam cheating" bomb finally exploded.

Xu Yanmiao couldn't explain why his handwriting on the exam paper didn't match his usual handwriting, nor could he answer why he didn't understand the classics.

The evidence prepared by the ousted crown prince of the emperor hit the nail on the head, and his personal bodyguard was ready to drag Xu Yanmiao away to the prison, awaiting execution in the autumn.

Xu Yanmiao held onto the gossip that proved his innocence but was in a quandary:

How do I explain the source of my information...

[Say that I secretly met with the Chief Examiner, the Minister of Rites, three nights before the exam? Impossible, that night, the Minister of Rites was dressed as a woman, spent the night at the General's Mansion, with the general...]

The general's body shook, and he interjected: "Your Majesty!!!!"

"Although the evidence of exam cheating is solid, I believe there's still something fishy about this. It should be re-investigated! Especially Xu... Xu... Xu Yanmiao's attire is neat and tidy! Someone who cares so much about their appearance, how could they tarnish their reputation!"

The crown prince, who couldn't hear his thoughts: ??

[Also, what's with saying that the examiner faking yawning and tiredness was intentionally leaving me a gap for cheating? He spent the night before the exam in the pigsty without sleeping, how could he not be tired the next day? But, surprisingly, the Imperial Academy lecturer actually believed in pig's milk...]

The Imperial Academy lecturer's face went pale, and he burst out: "Your Majesty!!!!"

"I... I agree with the General's words! How could Xu Lang cheat in the exam! He... he... he deliberately drank a glass of pure water before the exam, believing that only good-hearted people can use pure things, such a kind-hearted person, how could he cheat in the exam!"

Thinking he had everything under control, the crown prince: ??

Xu Yanmiao was deeply moved.

[They're all good people, even if their brains don't work well, they're trying their best to find reasons and excuses for me.]

[But I really have no way to turn the tables, alas, it's a pity that I haven't finished watching the TV series I've been following. The old emperor angered the empress last night and got kicked out of the bedchamber, and now I'm going to die before seeing the ending. He seems to be planning to paint his face with ink and pretend to be a cat to cheer up the empress...]

"Bang—"

The old emperor slammed the table, forcibly interrupting the continuous stream of thoughts: "I believe Xu Yanmiao did not cheat in the exam! Release him, innocent!"

The civil and military officials couldn't wait to echo, fearing that if they were too slow, Xu Yanmiao might spill more gossip.

"Yes yes yes! Release him innocent!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please end the court session! Let Xu Lang go home and rest! You've tired him out by making him stand for so long!"

The crown prince: ??
