Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

Zheng Shuyi’s ex-boyfriend cheated on her, and the other women’s uncle drove an eye-catching Rolls-Royce Phantom, with an arrogant straight numerical license plate number.... more>>

A few days after they broke up, Zheng Shuyi saw the unforgettable Rolls-Royce Phantom outside of the State Banquet Hotel.

Thinking of the scumbag and the white lotus flying away from her, she felt distressed.

Want to save 20 years of hard work? Don’t even think about it!

Do you still regard me as a relative? Well, sure. I’ll just be your aunt!

You’ll be forced to treat me with respect even when you feel so full of yourself.

At that moment, with self-fulfilling confidence, Zheng Shuyi tapped on the back seat window of the Rolls-Royce Phantom with a gentle smile on her face.

The car window slowly rolled down, and the young man looked over with his charming eyes behind his glasses.

Zheng Shuyi was quite shocked by the appearance. She thought to herself, the white lotus doesn’t look that good, but her uncle sure is handsome.

A few months later, Zheng Shuyi took the man’s hand and sat affectionately in the back seat of the Rolls-Royce. When she saw the scum and the white lotus, she hooked her fingers arrogantly to tell them to come closer.

“Shouldn’t you at least greet your elder?”

The white lotus’ face was pale. She moved over slowly and called out to the driver, “Hi, uncle.”

Zheng Shuyi: “……?” <<less

When she first met Seokju, she was so afraid and couldn’t save him.... more>>

When she met him the second time, she had been too immature in love and lost him.

However, this time was different.

Seokju, I will never give up on you.

When he first met Jiwon, she was such an idiot that he couldn’t help but worry about her.

When they met again, he couldn’t help himself and fell in love with her.

He would have been better off if he had just lost the ability to feel.

If only I had known that my life would be turned upside-down because of you… <<less

Shi Yunnan was sent out of the country by his parents since he was young, and lived like an unloved child, but he still played around wantonly and relied on his appearance to make trouble~... more>>

As a result, he was deceived by his elders into returning home and was informed that he was about to marry the young master of the Luo family.

“What kind of feudalistic ideology is this? It’s outrageous!”

Shi Yunnan packed his luggage that night, planning to escape the next day, but when he fell asleep, he dreamed of a terrible scenario——

He dreamed that his life was just a supporting character in a book. Because he didn’t get along with the protagonist who transmigrated into the book, he eventually ended up in a situation of being forsaken by everyone.

All tragedies began with this willful escape from marriage.

After waking up, Shi Yunnan hadn’t had the time to let everything sink in when he was blocked at the door of his own house——

“Second young master Shi thinks that our Luo family is not worthy of you?”

The man in front of him had a heavenly face, his temperament was abstinent and outstanding. His whole body was wrapped in luxurious outfits. Even those long legs, which relied on wheelchairs, wildly shook second young master Shi’s aesthetic point.

Sigh, I’m a good boy who listens to his parents and matchmakers!

Shi Yunnan pretended to be reserved for three seconds, then nodded like a chicken pecking on rice, “Worthy, of course, you’re worthy! Is the wedding banquet ready? Husband~”

The man stared at his smiling face and answered subtly, “Let’s do it this evening.” <<less

[Infinite Knowledge Quiz]
Question: When you return home and find a ghost resting on your bed, you rush to the door, only to hear eerie noises outside. You look out through the peephole and see another ghost preparing to open your front door. What should you do in this situation?... more>>

Among various answers like “hide in the shoe cabinet” or “hide in the kitchen,” Jie Fangcheng chooses to slowly draw his sword: first, kill the one on the bed, and then kill the one in the elevator.

***
After working diligently for 1,500 years in the underworld, Jie Fangcheng finally retired as an outstanding employee.
His kind-hearted boss asked him, “Would you like to return to the mortal world? That way, you can continue your work as a 007 agent in the underworld after a hundred and eighty years.”
Jie Fangcheng nodded in agreement.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an infinite game.
The game, “Do Not Respond,” was renowned for its horror, bloodshed, and cruelty. The survival rate in its dungeons did not exceed thirty percent, and death in the game meant real-life death.
Mysterious mountain villages.
Terrifying fairy tale towns.
Apocalyptic Battle Royales…

As players contemplated how to survive in the dungeons, Jie Fangcheng diligently guided and redeemed each NPC.
Jie Fangcheng: “Hello, I’m a recently retired department manager… and now I’m back on the job!”

***
It is said that a newcomer has entered the game, and the dungeon they entered has never been reset.

***
It is also said that someone witnessed NPCs panicking and running around.
Player: How is that possible…

Jie Fangcheng stabbed the ghost leader with his sword, completing the redemption, and wiped his blade: “Who’s next?!”

#What kind of lousy game is this? ［Do Not Respond］but I’ll respond!

#Trying to steal people from the underworld? Did you ask us, the official personnel of the underworld?

Consumption Notes:
1. Not a leveling-focused story, starting at maximum level.
2. Attack and defense mechanics deviate from the traditional rules. The game allows for forced storyline alterations and NPC manipulation.
3. Features a significant number of supporting character perspectives, god-like viewpoint, but not a large ensemble cast. Main focus is on the protagonist and their romantic interest.

Meng Fu was 16 years old when the Jiang family came looking for her. They said that she had been mistakenly swapped with someone else since a young age. Before she can react, her body is occupied by the soul of a female journalist from an alternate world for two years.

She finally manages to reclaim her body, however...

Mother from a wealthy family: "The young master of the Tong family studied abroad, while you dropped out of high school. Although this betrothal is arranged by both families when both of you were young, there is no need to insist on the marriage."

Father: "Xinran is also my daughter. I hope you will get along well with her and learn from her."

Younger brother: "I only have one elder sister, and she is Jiang Xinran."

Before reclaiming her body, Meng Fu was ranked fourth in the Global Idol girl group program. She was a bimbo that all netizens hated, and the daughter that the Jiang family refused to recognize. However, after she reclaims her body, no offence, but no other contestant is a match for her.

Initially, fans from major forums insist that Meng Fu leaves the girl group and showbiz, attacking her with harsh criticisms. A group of fans retaliate and speak up for Meng Fu.

Until later, a powerful figure publishes a post: [Reposting my new drama]

Someone commented: [You got the wrong account.]

The fans who discover the truth suddenly come back to their senses: [There is no need to speak up for Meng Fu, the big shot.]

Jin Zhou thought that his encounters with Yang Shi Yu were limited to passing each other in the court. Unexpectedly, one day, Yang Shi Yu would condescend to come to his territory and say to him while he was fixing a car, "Don't get involved in this case." Jin Zhou laughed and slid out from under the car, saying, "Sure, Your Honor, give me a kiss, and I won't get involved." In Jin Zhou's expectation, Yang Shi Yu would leave indifferently just like he did in the past. But things didn't unfold quite as he had predicted...

Zheng Shu read a danmei novel with deep sadomasochistic love and was deeply impressed by a wealthy cannon fodder with the same name and surname as him.... more>>

The cannon fodder is ignorant, arrogant and domineering, and suppresses the protagonist Shou beyond his means, and finally ends up being broken by the protagonist's gong.

In Zheng Shu's view, this is completely avoidable!

Because the young master has a domineering ex-husband, who was appointed by his father to be a business elite to manage the huge Zheng Group for him, and he is the only character that the protagonist in the book fears!

It's a pity that the young master left him for a little star.

A car accident caused Zheng Shu to become this cannon fodder, and in the bright and clean CEO's office, he wanted to divorce the big boss.

……hehe.

He grabbed the divorce agreement and sent it directly into the shredder. He hugged his wife's golden thigh with embarrassment, and said affectionately: "Honey, I don't think our relationship has broken down, we can still fix it."

 Shen Xun was arranged for another blind date. Before the date, Shen's mother repeatedly advised him, 'Don't scare your date away by saying you're a forensic doctor the moment you meet. First, tell them you're a civil servant, someone within the system. Remember that.' 

On the day of the blind date, a handsome man arrived. From his looks to his fashion, he perfectly met Shen Xun's aesthetic standards. So Shen Xun went blank and said, 'I'm a forensic doctor within the system.' ... Oops, he messed up.

 But unexpectedly, the handsome man smiled and said, 'Actually, I'm a university professor of law. In our professions, we both have the word "law" in common.'

He didn’t know what was written on it, but tightly held the business card in his hand, and began his part-time job from henceforth.

“These are the kind of jobs we do here.”

“I see.”

The interviewer gave his card. Hel took and held it, but he couldn’t read human language. He couldn’t read it, but casually nodded his head as if he could.

“Are you still going to do it?”

“Yes. The money will be given as promised, right?”

“If you don’t run away for a month, I’ll give you as much money as advertised.”

“Good.”

The interviewer’s eyebrow suddenly rose as if surprised at Hel’s answer, but immediately went blank once more.

“You may go now. You can go to work by this time tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Zong Qi: ? tr*sh commercial, deleted

That night, he got pulled onto the set of a horror film and was informed that if he didn’t shoot it… He’ll die.

He was lucky that the actors were all working as hard as they could, and the director only needed to stand around and watch the show.

But because he had been given way too much, Zong Qi didn’t hesitate at all before making his own changes.

Under his false identity was an ‘evil mastermind’ that fought with the actors on everything.

The immoral things he’s done on set include but aren’t limited to–

Personally putting makeup on the ghost, teaching actors how to mess and change the script, exposing himself at crucial times…

People as arrogant as him usually don’t have good endings when their identities were revealed.

What Zong Qi didn’t expect was that instead of the actors joining up for revenge, an unlucky bastard’s whose plans had been spoilt by him countless times appeared instead.
