The life of a princess, who had all these conditions that could not be modest, was solid.

I’m self-centered?

What is that?

It’s a life lived without caring about the regard of others.

“Look at this white fur. It’s like a snowball. Fluffy.”

Who dares to touch me frivolously?

No matter how much I shouted, I couldn’t reach the dazed-looking maids.

Eristella, the most capable woman of all time, was cursed and became a small fox.

***

It wasn’t too bad that the people of the Grand Duchy, who used to grind their teeth when I was a princess, showed affection.

“Eristella.”

The foe-like fiancé, who I most wanted to avoid, said,

“Should I call you by a proper name?”

The embarrassing thing is that it was him who drove those four out of his sect to make them independent.

Valentia Syner, the greatest mind in all of the Imperial Academy’s history.

“Who dares to slap the Imperial Prince?”

Their first meeting went terribly. They exchanged awful words and there was even a slap involved. But over time, the two of them became very close.

However, Valentia discovered a terrible truth just before she was about to confess something to Lexus—she was pregnant with his child.

Valentia had to run away to protect herself.

And then a few years passed.

“Did he just say you were his mom?”

That awful man, Lexus appeared once more before Valentia, who was living a quiet life with her lovely son, Elijah. <<less

Jiang Xun, a god-tier professional esports player.

One day, after a certain variety show aired, these complete strangers became a trending topic together.

Gu Wei's Anti-Fans: Do these two have anything to do with each other? Gu Wei is absolutely shameless. He'll try to leech fame off anything that moves, even esports legends. Ignore him, ignore him!

Fans of Jiang Xun's Technique: If our God Xun wanted to, he could buy this whole country. If he's playing around with some nameless celeb, he'll just play until he gets bored and moves on.

But before long, an unexpectedly heated controversy sparked around the two:

Jiang Xun slacks off during a livestream to promote a celebrity!

Gu Wei: Ge… I think your reaction memes are better looking than you.

Jiang Xun: Little Gu, you're a little rebel, aren't you?

Then, affection gradually began to grow between the two. Gu Wei finally mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to Jiang Xun.

Jiang Ying, a controversial second-generation celebrity, loves nothing more than collecting dirt on other stars.... more>>

Qi Zhu, a controversial actor. His hobby? Counterattacking trolls, tabloids, and anti-fans.

Classmates from elementary school to high school, they fit the mold of childhood sweethearts. And yet they were more like fire and ice: utterly incompatible.

Back in high school, they fought while reviewing test answers. On set, they fought over their scripts. For better or worse, the two were in contact every single day. Their QQ streak has never been broken.

By chance, Qi Zhu discovered his own dirt in Jiang Ying’s possession.

Qi Zhu: ?

Jiang Ying: Don’t you know? Your scandals are way cuter than you.

Jiang Ying thought they would bicker for the rest of their lives.

Until, one day, he came across a new ship on Weibo: ZhuiFengZhuYing.

And a supertopic to match: ZhuYingYaoHong.

Soon after Jiang Ying was born, his parents held his zhuazhou ceremony. Among the items they set out before him, Jiang Ying crawled to the keyboard.

Ever since his youth, Jiang Ying had never lost an argument.

In a popular squabbling app that randomly matched users with differing opinions, prompting them to fight, Jiang Ying could handily defeat any opponent.

After spending three years on the app ‘Fight!’, Jiang Ying reigned as king of the leaderboard.

Out of the goodness of his heart, to benefit society, Jiang Ying took an apprentice who clearly didn’t know the first thing about dissing people. He worked hard to train up his little apprentice until the kid could diss and roast as fiercely as the king.

It was only later, when he was pushed down in bed and [redacted] by the typically cold and taciturn Qi Zhu, that Jiang Ying realized Qi Zhu had somehow learned every trick in his book. <<less

I possessed the most evil woman in a mass-produced fantasy novel.... more>>

Received an oracle to destroy the world, and killed by the Munchkin male lead…

But one day, I picked up the little male lead? After treating and taking care of the injured and blind boy, the child became a bit strange.

“I’ll be responsible for you later.”

“…….What?”

“If you become the wife of the Crown Prince, you can even become an Empress. What do you think? It’s an honor, right?”

…You’re still a kid…?

And we’re enemies.

You’ll come to defeat me later!

However, rather than coming to defeat, the male lead, who became an adult, came to propose.

– – –

First night with the male lead…

I was hesitant to get in, standing in front of the bedroom for 30 minutes. It felt like my heart was about to explode from the tension.

But then, he slowly opened the door and leaned against the door.

“Are you trying to kill me?”

The red and blue eyes like dawn, for a moment, he felt as if they were binding him and sucking him in. He slowly grabbed my arm and pulled me into the room.

“Don’t relax all night tonight, Queen.”

He made eye contact with me, twisted his lips strangely and whispered.

“Because I’m going to eat you.”

Badump. Badump. Badump.

My heart thumped onto the floor. <<less

“If I ever go back, I will never love you.”

Perhaps the earnest wish worked, she returned back a year before the original work began. The problem is that this body that she possessed in the original, is the worst villain in the world!

“If I go on like this, the female lead will appear and my neck will be cut off.”

She decided to never follow the plot after her rebirth while keeping her distance from The Male Lead.

“I must write the greatness of Her Highness the Empress as a pamphlet and spread it throughout the Empire!”

“You did a great job! The Empress must be a saint!”

“I would gladly give this one life for the sake of the Empress!”

Did I work too hard? Everyone seems to like me very much. And besides…

“What are you doing here…”

“Is it strange for a husband to find himself in his wife’s bedroom?”

The attitude of the man who hated her terribly also became quite strange somehow…?

Finally, the news that the heroine had appeared. Now it was time for the extras to disappear just as they were in the original. She stamped the divorce papers without any regrets and took them to her husband…

“…Divorce?”

“You will dethrone me and the new Empress… Wait, what are you doing?”

Before she could finish speaking, he tore the divorce papers to shreds. He responded to her with a calm face.

“I won’t.”

“Are you going to go against the blessing?”

“That’s out of question.”

“I beg your pardon?’”

I was dumbfounded, and he came close to me.

With a dangerous face, he said as if growling in the narrow hunger for a kiss.

“You promised to stay by my side until the day I die.”

“…”

“Your promise comes first. I will never let you go.”

The original was about to change once again. <<less

Shen Du asked.

Clearly, sorrowful words are spoken, but his expression is ruthless and indifferent, as if the monk had never enticed him at Tianji Temple.

Therefore, Pei Wuji felt as if his heart had been gouged out.

He responded as follows: You are the master of demonic cultivation, you crush all demons beneath your feet, you are a cruel Shen Du—you ought to be this horrible. <<less

Yan Rui in the photograph was hiding in a rubbish dump looking back with hollow black eyes. It was as if he was devoid of the human soul. His body was reduced to skin and bones. Duan Chen shuddered and continued to flip the photographs all the way until the last. His eyes were now bloodshot.
