“Do as I say if you value your mother’s life.”... more>>

Erica was the nanny’s daughter and was forced to get married in place of the lady she served. Even the groom-to-be was the prince of the evil Archleiff Dukedom.

‘What if I am hated there, too?’

I’m dead meat if I get caught!

Even if it was frightening, Erica was prepared to put up with all forms of prejudice, mistreatment, and bullying in order to see the day when she would be reunited with her mother. But contrary to her expectation, the life of a fake bride turned out to be sweet, after all…?

“I take back what I said that you should live here like a mouse. Do whatever you want. Do as you like to your heart’s content.”

Erica tries hard not to forget that this marriage was bound to end someday, but it wasn’t easy at all. “Didn’t we agree to divorce once I become an adult?”

“That’s right. And at that time, I didn’t give you an answer.”

Unlike his gentle smile, her husband’s eyes flickered like a wildfire.

“Erica, if you ever have any place to go, shouldn’t it only be next to me?”

Will Erica be able to live the modest life she had always wanted without ever being discovered as a fake bride? <<less

“I’d say it’s audacious.”... more>>

Kaiden looked down at Trinity trapped beneath his arms and gasped for breath.

Unlike the bold demeanor she had displayed in her counterattack, Trinity’s body was small and delicate enough to fit snugly in his embrace.

The moment he met her dark eyes, wide with surprise, Kaiden tightened his arms involuntarily.

Thick sinews bulged in his arms as he struggled to keep himself from collapsing onto her.

“I’d say it’s remarkable.”

His opposite hand, not touching the ground, cradled Trinity’s head. The palm held her soft hair, while the back of the hand was in contact with the harsh wintry chill of the ground.

Trinity shuddered as she squeezed his hand, the sensation unfamiliar but not unwelcome.

Kaiden’s hand trembled with hers.

“Perhaps, it might be both.”

Kaiden Calskronin is a member of the Magic Knights Order and has spent three years patrolling the borderlands before enrolling in the magic academy.

Behind the scene, there was a manipulator.... more>>

Genichi, who crossed over to the world of pirates, possesses the ability to harvest emotions and extract character cards. At first…

It started with the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox causing chaos in the Sabaody Archipelago and bombarding the Holy Land of the Celestial Dragons.

Afterward, there were the fragments of the Shikon Jewel, coveted by the kings of the sea, which belong to the world of monsters, the ruling demons who signed a contract with the Five Elder Stars of the World Government, the mysterious and eerie Thriller Bark in the middle of the sea, the Demon King who descended on the sixth day of the Land of Wano, the ghost who pursued the Blue Bonnet on a small island in the East Blue, the mysterious port utopia and gravity spring…

Ruan Qing, a surgeon who died suddenly from working overtime, transmigrated through time and became a useless doctor in the Dayan Dynasty.... more>>

Not only was the original owner of the body a quack doctor, but he was also terrible with his education and turned the Second Imperial Prince into a cripple. As a result, he was sent to prison, interrogated fiercely, and almost died tragically.

Ruan Qing: "……What kind of damned opening is this?"

At this time, the system suddenly appeared: "Dear, the surgical system is now bound to you. It not only provides MRI, vaccine development, medical cosmetology, and other modern medical technologies, but it also drops various medical equipment and medicines from time to time!"

So Ruan Qing returned to his old profession and started practicing medicine in the Dayan Dynasty.

The first trial—testing the water: Huizhou was hit by a pandemic and a vaccine was developed to save thousands of victims.

Gradually moving on to his next case: For the deformed child in Liuhe Village, genetic diagnosis technology was used to avert his tragedy.

Now the confident third case: the Empress was strangely disfigured and the medical cosmetic treatment helped restore her youthful appearance.

After the nth case, Ruan Qing became completely famous in the capital and became the Imperial Physician of the Dayan Dynasty. The Emperor rewarded thousands of taels of gold and countless manors, but he declined them one by one. Every day, he would go back home to farm the fields and ate three meals a day cooked by a certain jealous man.

The key point was that not only did this jealous man have great stamina and often attacked, but he also always liked to cling to him desperately, calling him "wifey" in an aggrieved manner if he got scolded even just a little.

In this way, the little doctor was tricked into having one baby after another. Looking at the babies crawling all over the floor and their silly and cheerful father, Ruan Qing (shrugged) said: "I can’t help it, my husband is too clingy."

*

Xiao Ziheng was the Second Imperial Prince of the Dayan Dynasty, but he was crippled by a doctor of unknown origin. In extreme anger, he sent the man into prison. But who would've thought the little doctor would change his ways? Not only did he solve a pile of medical problems for Dayan and helped the people, he was also able to help him surpass the First Imperial Prince, which was a big deal.

Xiao Ziheng: "……I think I'm falling in love, what to do?"

However, the little doctor was terribly afraid him. He would pitifully try and please him all day long, but the little doctor never came any closer and so Xiao Ziheng couldn't help but reflect: "Are you telling me that not liking to smile is illegal?"

Later, when the little doctor encountered trouble, he finally bared his canine teeth to protect him. Looking at the surprised look on his face, he laughed: "Be good, are you still afraid of me?"

The little doctor blushed in embarrassment and was carried back to his home by Xiao Ziheng to get married. He was so favored that if he wanted the stars or the moon, the Prince was willing to pluck them down the sky for him.

Xiao Ziheng (with an evil smile): "Can't be helped, my wifey is too cute." <<less

“Sera, even if everyone in the world hates you, Daddy will give you a love greater than that.”

“My dear little sister. A world that hates you deserves to be destroyed.”
