When he woke up, Wen Chi transmigrated into a book.... more>>

In the book, the protagonist accidentally obtained a system, and with the help of the system, he pretended to be sick and escaped his engagement with the disabled Crown Prince. Then, at the peach blossom banquet, he demonstrated his extraordinary talent and attracted the attention of the fourth prince…

Finally, everything went well between the protagonist shou and the fourth prince and they fell in love very deeply. The fourth prince overthrew the rule of the previous emperors and became a model royal husband.

However…….

Wen Chi transmigrated and became the cannon fodder brother of the protagonist shou, and he was the one who was forced to replace the protagonist to marry the disabled Crown Prince.

It was rumored that the disabled Crown Prince was burned by fire five years ago. Not only was his face disfigured, but his legs also ended up being disabled. He lived deep in the Eastern Palace and stayed behind closed doors all year round. He had a very strange temper.

Only Wen Chi knew that the disabled Crown Prince would still become the emperor and became a famous tyrant in history. Unfortunately, he was later killed by the fourth prince for being too cruel. Even the cannon fodder, he was not spared, and he ended up tragically.

On the wedding night, the disabled Crown Prince grabbed Wen Chi’s chin. He sneered: “Here comes another one who wants to step on me to climb up.”

Wen Chi in silent tears: “No, no, no. I’m only sitting around waiting to die.”

The disabled Crown Prince: “???” <<less

“What is it you want to do?”
The woman stopped smiling and stared at him.
“Do you really want to hear it?”
“Yes. And if I can help you, I’d like to.”
“Should I help you in return?”
The man nodded. Adrian raised the corners of her mouth.
“I could, but I’ll suffer a severe loss.”
“…Then what?”
“A good wife and a wise mother.”
“…What?”
Celeste thought he heard incorrectly.
“Didn’t you hear me? I’m going to become a good wife and a wise mother.”
“…”
Were they thinking of the same words? Celeste couldn’t tell whether Adrian’s words were a joke or not, so his eyes sparkled with fury.
“Don’t mess with me.”
“After my puny brother’s life is over, I’ll meet a good man and become a good wife and a wise mother. I’ll have about ten children, nag at my husband, and in my later years of life, I’ll be a cute grandmother who lives for the fun of giving pocket money to my grandchildren.”
Is it proper for a good wife and a wise mother to end the life of her own flesh and blood? Celeste was unusually silent. <<less

I reincarnated as the villainess, Eliana Mussieux, who was killed by the scheming Emperor.... more>>

Rather than do nothing and die according to the novel, I planned a path to survival by seeking him out.

But . . . something’s not right?

I haven’t done anything yet, but the Emperor started to cling onto me first.

* * *

“Don’t go.”

Verkley grabbed Eliana’s collar. His gaze was entirely focused on her. Then, he whispered imploringly once more.

“You tamed me, Lili. You have to take responsibility.”

He bound her hands so she wouldn’t move. Before she knew it, Verkley’s lips touched Eliana’s fingertips.

From her fingertips to the back of her hand, his lips trailed kisses as if he were leaving a trace.

His eyes were fixed on Eliana the entire time.

With an unreadable expression, he pulled Eliana’s arm.

And closed the distance between them.

Then growled low with an insidious smile.

“If you go, I’ll kill that bastard.” <<less

Outsiders all say that Xie Zhongxing had hit the jackpot marrying the prince of the Qin Enterprise, Qin Zhongyue, even being treasured and favoured for five whole years. They were well-recognized as a loving couple.... more>>

However, they didn’t know that Qin Zhongyue had a lot of dissatisfaction with this marriage. He complained to his good friend, “He micromanages everything. Won’t let me drink or smoke, won’t let me go clubbing, and he even set me a 10pm curfew!”

“I have to hand over all my salary and bank cards and he would only give me a hundred yuan a day! Only if he is in a good mood, he would give me a few hundred more!”

Qin Zhongyue felt angry and wronged, “And I even have to wait on him!”

“If I ever get the chance to do this again, I will never marry him! I used to get eight million yuan a month as spending money!” The prince said this to his friend.

The day after he said this, Qin Zhongyue found himself reborn to the time when he was seventeen.

The Xie Zhongxing at this time was eighteen years old and poor to the point where he only had one set of old clothes to wear, holes in his socks and a pair of dirty shoes with its soles peeling off. Even if he had a nice-looking face, he was despised and looked down upon, and known in the school as a pauper.

When Xie Zhongxing’s parents came to handle the withdrawal procedures for him, Qin Zhongyue only then found out that he was a study tyrant ranked first in his grade, receiving scholarships every year, and that he was a seedling with good prospects the school had high expectations for and not the ‘useless high school dropout who didn’t like to study and only has money in his eyes’ as claimed by his younger brother.

Qin Zhongyue couldn’t bear the sight of this. He pulled Xie Zhongxing into his arms, angry, “Continue studying! Our Qin family has never had a top scorer before, you must keep studying!”

Xie Zhongxing raised his eyes and looked at him in confusion. The look in his eyes seemed to ask: Who are you?

Qin Zhongyue thought of Xie Zhongxing’s dictatorship after their marriage and shuddered. He then maintained a look of righteousness, “I am just a kind-hearted person who does not wish to reveal his name!”

Later, Qin Zhongyue asked Xie Zhongxing shyly, “If we get married, can you give me a thousand yuan a day as spending money?”

Xie Zhongxing, “?”

Qin Zhongyue, “…..Five hundred is also okay.”

Sand sculpture is often used with a more humourous/joking intention to describe something or someone as silly or foolish. <<less

Wei Xiao––the former rookie king of the league, now an accompanying player and tr*sh talk king, had a stupefied look on his face!

Someone bought 10,000 games with him!

200 yuan a game, for a neat and tidy total of two million yuan!

Wei Xiao: “Boss, you didn’t miscount the zeroes, right?”

“No.”

“You want me to accompany you to play 10,000 games?”

“Mm.”

Wei Xiao was amazed. But just when he thought he’d encountered a generous fool and was having a good time deceiving and playing with them, he discovered the other party’s identity.

This person actually turned out to be his previous captain, the one whose hands were tired from accepting too many championship trophies, the one who made everyone feel fear when they heard his name, the Great Demon King of the league, Lu Feng!

Wei Xiao: “I’m sorry for disturbing you, goodbye!”

Lu Feng picked up the little bastard who wanted to run, “Have you played around enough? Come back for training if you’ve played enough!”

Later on, Wei Xiao became famous in a single game. The host interviewed him, “How would you evaluate God Lu?”

Wei Xiao: “God Lu? Great technique, strong physical strength, and the most heaven-defying thing is his endurance!”

Host: “???”

How come the answer seemed to be a little strange?! <<less

When they met again, she plunged a knife into his chest and smiled cunningly in the arms of another man, treating him like a stranger.

He pressed her against the wall, “Jiang Wan Yu, who is that damn man?”

Jiang Wan Yu pushed away his restraining arms, and coldly smiled, “Of course, he's my husband, my child's father!”

“I won't allow it! You can't leave me unless I'm dead!” The man erupted in anger.

Jiang Wan Yu sneered, ”You won't allow it? Who do you think you are? What right do you have to forbid anything, Lin Yi Chen? Everything you once looked down upon, there are plenty of men who appreciate it! I no longer need you!” <<less

The Shao and Cheng families have been sworn enemies for generations, though few outsiders know the exact details of their feud.... more>>

What is known to all is the Shao family’s three cardinal rules:

The Shao family must not cooperate with the Chengs, must not intermarry with the Chengs, and must never appear with the Chengs at any public event.

One day, an adorable little girl looking like a doll, wearing a puffy pink dress, pink hair clip, and pink backpack, walked into the lobby on the first floor of the Shao Group building.

The receptionist thought she was some child who had wandered away from home. But the little girl solemnly said, “I want to see your Shao Group CEO, Shao Chengze.”

Seeing the girl’s pink outfit, the receptionist knew she must be from a wealthy and noble family to dare to address their CEO by his full name. She couldn’t be the daughter of some high-ranking Shao Group executive?

Smiling warmly, she asked, “Little one, could you tell me your parents’ names?”

The girl tilted her head. “My mommy is Cheng Jinlan.”

Cheng…Jinlan?!

Second Miss Cheng Jinlan of the Cheng family?! She never thought she’d see the day a Cheng would set foot in the Shao Group building. What a miracle!

“As for my dad, I’ve come today to get some of Shao Chengze’s hair for a DNA test. Once I have his hair, I’ll know if he’s my dad or not.”

The girl’s crisp words rippled outwards from the front desk through the bustling first floor lobby. Everyone who heard froze in shock, jaws dropping.

Everyone except Shao Chengze, who had just stepped out of the elevator surrounded by a group.

He looked at the girl in pink through narrowed, fox-like eyes.

Cheng Liqi recognized Shao Chengze and covered her mouth in an “ah-oh”.

She decided that even if Shao Chengze wasn’t her dad, she’d have to help Cheng Jinlan get this man. She liked his eyes.

They were just like hers.

So pretty. <<less

She was a pawn in her past life. In this life, however, the world was her chess board. With an alluring smile and a charming figure that enchanted the entire nation, the red-clothed woman wrecked chaos among the lands. She was a vengeful spirit from hell, determined to make those who wronged her pay in blood.

“I want those who owe me a life debt to hold their hearts out in front of me. I want those who looked down on me to only be able to admire me. I want Lord Zhong Zi to shiver when he sees me. I want to step on this splendid river and mountains!”

“What if I love the world?” She asked.

“I am the world, so you can only love me,” he answered. <<less

Su Tao had been in love with Xie Jin for four long years.... more>>

Everyone knew that Xie Jin was paranoid and had a strong desire for control, while Su Tao was obedient and would listen to anything Xie Jin said.

As a secretary who only knew how to follow orders, how could she stay by his side and have access to privileges that were beyond the reach of ordinary people?

With the "help" of others, Su Tao finally discovered that Xie Jin's paranoid demands were an attempt to mold her into the image of his former secretary. She was nothing but a substitute.

Without leaving a trace, Su Tao only left a resignation letter and disappeared completely.

No one could have imagined that Xie Jin, who couldn't find Su Tao, was like a devil. No one was able to calm his rage when he went insane.

The next time Su Tao saw Xie Jin was at the annual meeting of a rising star company in the industry.

She appeared as a shareholder and stunned the crowd, attracting the attention of countless young talents.

Just as she was about to leave, Xie Jin suddenly grabbed her wrist and his fiercely red eyes were filled with madness: "Be good, don't go."

Su Tao pulled her hand back and looked at him coldly, "I forgot to tell you, I've never been obedient."

Xie Jin held onto Su Tao's clothes and choked out the words, "I'll be good."
