Facing the dual blows of a terminal ALS diagnosis and the painful end of an eleven-year relationship, Su Ning retreats to his quiet countryside home, resigned to await his fate. With no family fortune, career success, or prospects, he embodies the "so what?" attitude of someone with nothing left to lose. His solitary plan to find peace in mundane tasks like weeding his overgrown garden takes an unbelievable turn when he discovers a group of thumb-sized, flying, cultivator-like beings – Ascendants from another realm – locked in a life-or-death battle with a common spider near a peculiar small tree.

Mistaking the ordinary, dying Su Ning for a powerful Immortal Realm being after he casually saves them, these miniature Saints and Fallen Creatures offer him their cultivation knowledge in gratitude and for protection. To his astonishment, a unique, jointly-created cultivation method actually works, beginning to heal his ravaged body and granting him superhuman strength.

Now, Su Ning navigates a bizarre dual existence: tending his garden, dealing with lingering ties to his past life (including a bewildered ex-girlfriend and a demanding former boss), and secretly acting as the unwitting 'Immortal Senior' to a growing population of miniature cultivators in his backyard. He provides them with simple food that acts as divine elixirs, witnesses their internal conflicts and Lower Realm grudges, and even acquires a ghostly classmate as an unexpected companion. As his own power grows and his health returns, Su Ning, the man who expected nothing, finds himself at the center of a hidden world, grappling with newfound abilities, strange responsibilities, and the lingering question – now that he might live, so what comes next? <<less

Before summer vacation, Kasamoto was invited by his classmate, Hanano Shiori, to come and play at her villa. She, who has a weak body, seems to be spending time with her female friends at a summer resort. The girls are all beautiful.... more>>

Kasamoto decided to participate, but there was a secret between him and the girls. That is, they had once seen a dream together about being locked in a 'room where you can’t escape unless you do something'. Moreover, Hanano Shiori’s parents are staying near the villa where the girls live, so they need to be careful not to get caught.

Kasamoto visited the villa with anxiety and expectation in his heart, but what awaited him was an unimaginable situation. For some reason, August 1st is repeating itself and he can’t leave the summer resort.

Steven is a total newbie who just got isekai’d into the world of Terra.... more>>

“Don’t just toss me back to the world where even the sun is a square!”

In order to survive in this world—where at least the girls have pointy faces instead of square ones—Steven has no choice but to dive into one chaotic event after another, all to raise something called his "World Acknowledgement Point" and earn his stay.

To get her internship certificate stamped, Ding Lei used connections to get into her cousin-in-law's company.... more>>

To her embarrassment, her cousin-in-law's daughter, Xi Zhen, seemed to have a problem with her.

Several times, while Ding Lei was still hesitating whether to greet her, she saw Xi Zhen walk away quickly with a cold expression.

Fortunately, the internship period required by the school was only six months. Once the time was up, she could get her stamp and leave.

*

To ensure Ding Lei had a ride to and from work, their elders arranged for her and Xi Zhen to live together.

Their initially awkward cohabitation gradually took on a different flavor.

The woman who initially avoided her began to have an increasingly strong presence in Ding Lei's work and personal life.

"Duoduo, I have a document here. Come and get it."

"Stay for dinner? I can't finish all this by myself." The dishes laid out were all Ding Lei's favorites, and chopsticks were already thoughtfully handed to her.

*

On the last day of her internship.

"Director Xi, these are the documents that need your approval and stamp."

"So happy? Did something good happen?"

"My internship certificate is stamped! Once these are done, I won't have to come anymore!"

After the documents were processed, she was pressed against the desk, and the woman whispered in her ear, "Where should the other stamp go?"

Ding Lei, blushing and annoyed, covered her mouth and threatened weakly, "You, if you do this again, I'll tell Sister Yongmei!"

Xi Zhen smiled, "Tell her what? That I'm being insubordinate?"

*

The perennially unchanged archives department added a new position, and on the same day, an intern joined, accompanied by the HR Director.

The intern, Ding Lei, was sweet, cute, well-behaved, and soft-spoken. In contrast, Young Director Xi Zhen was aloof and formidable; no one dared to make mistakes under her supervision.

Gossip is human nature. Everyone felt this newcomer with connections had a significant background. Some even speculated she was the CEO's illegitimate daughter, Young Director Xi's half-sister (from a different mother).

However, the two looked nothing alike and their styles were polar opposites, so discerning people scoffed at the latter speculation.

After it was noticed that intern Ding Lei and Xi Zhen were never seen in the same place, the illegitimate daughter rumors intensified.

Until someone witnessed the intern sitting in Young Director Xi's passenger seat in the garage, car door ajar, the two kissing passionately.

Huh? Can blood sisters do that?

So, not sisters, but lovers? Were they avoiding each other all along to keep it secret???

The rumors took a 180-degree turn, but the individuals involved were completely unaware.

Later, someone reporting work happened upon the CEO and the intern both in Young Director Xi's office.

Oh ho, now there's a show to watch!

Indeed, the CEO was very angry; her voice carried through the slightly ajar door.

"Xi Zhen! Duoduo is your younger aunt! How can you address her by her full name?!"

What? Aunt and niece?!!

*

After work, inside Xi Zhen's car.

After a lingering, deep kiss, Xi Zhen asked, "Shall I take you home tonight?"

"N-no, I'm not going back," Ding Lei said softly, her face flushed red, head lowered.

"Then, Little Aunt, one more time, okay?" <<less

Having transmigrated and become a Little Taoist Priest of Ping'an Temple, Xiang Jiannan feels that his life is quite tragic.... more>>

Since transmigrating, all sorts of things that don't align with his original worldview have come his way, especially that Master in the Taoist temple, who is definitely clueless about how much he's screwing people over.

Let's see how a Little Taoist Priest strives to grow while shedding tears of frustration.

***

Xiang Jiannan, a modern soul mysteriously transmigrated into the body of a young Taoist priest in the remote town of Ping'an, just wants a quiet life. He's stuck with a master who's more interested in making a quick buck than imparting wisdom, and the local temple, Ping'an Temple, is more dilapidated than divine. But peace is short-lived. When a local family claims their "Peace Talismans" are useless against a haunting, Xiang Jiannan is reluctantly drawn into a series of increasingly bizarre events.

As he investigates, Xiang Jiannan discovers that Ping'an Town is a hotbed of strange occurrences, from restless spirits to a pig demon with a penchant for collecting debts. With his master's help (or hindrance), and his own surprisingly potent, though often unpredictable, abilities, Xiang Jiannan must navigate this supernatural chaos. He finds himself forming an uneasy alliance with a mysterious agent from the Fu Mo Si, a government agency dedicated to suppressing the paranormal, and facing off against a variety of colorful characters, both human and otherwise.

Along the way, Xiang Jiannan grapples with the meaning of cultivation, the effectiveness of his master's questionable methods, and the very nature of good and evil. His journey is a blend of comedic mishaps, genuine moments of terror, and a deep dive into a world where the line between the mundane and the magical is constantly blurred. He'll be forced to question everything he thought he knew about Taoism, about his master, and even about himself. And through it all, he must learn to trust his instincts, even if they lead him down the most unexpected, and often hilarious, paths. <<less

Synopsis:... more>>

Since childhood, Jian Jianan has been a money enthusiast. She knew how important money was—it could ensure she and her brother completed their education, earned respect, and allowed the family to live a comfortable life.

So, on the day she was about to come of age, when her father asked what had helped her the most, Jian Jianan firmly replied, "Money."

Her father was stunned, and her mother gently guided her: "We’ve come this far because of hard work, determination, and..."

Both parents looked at her expectantly.

Jian Jianan suddenly understood their deeper meaning and declared without hesitation: "And more and more money!"

The couple fell silent, lost in deep reflection.

Her money-loving tendencies had been evident for a long time.

In elementary school, when she noticed everyone drooling over her lunch, Jian Jianan immediately launched a monthly and yearly meal subscription service, earning a commission while bringing business to her family’s small restaurant.

In middle school, the complete set of comic books her parents bought her sparked a trend, causing a sensation at school. Jian Jianan quickly started renting them out—each book rented meant more money rolling in.

In high school, her parents felt this couldn’t go on; she was spending too little time studying. They decided to issue "business tickets"—she could only participate in the family business if she studied for 8 hours a day and earned tickets monthly.

Jian Jianan promptly introduced a loan guarantee system, mortgaging her ideas to her parents and getting her highly trustworthy childhood friend Shan Jiqing to act as a guarantor. Ten business tickets a day became a reality, and life went on as usual.

Her parents exchanged glances. Well, maybe pushing themselves was better than pushing their daughter.

By the time Jian Jianan entered university, her family had built a catering empire that sold across provinces, thanks to her mother, and a nationally renowned clothing brand, thanks to her father.

And she was the sole heir.

But little did she know, this was far from the end.

"You need to study hard in university, learn professional skills, and inherit your parents’ businesses, understand?"

Jian Jianan shook her head and refused: "No, I want to..."

Oh no! The sole heir is refusing to inherit the family business! Are these two companies doomed?

Brothers, grab your tools and get ready!

As days passed, those waiting to profit from the downfall of these companies didn’t see them collapse. Instead, they watched as Jian Jianan’s own ventures grew larger and more numerous.

Huh?

Are you kidding me?

Jian Jianan sincerely explained: "I hadn’t even finished speaking. Don’t you know it’s bad luck to pop champagne halfway through in business?"

"I only said I wanted to start my own business first, not that I’d abandon the family business!"

As the tides of the times surged forward, Jian Jianan seized opportunities, riding the waves and setting her sails high.

When the floodwaters receded, she intended to be the one left standing.

Ning Chuchu—a well-known green tea in the entertainment industry, best in lying and seducing others, but with poor popularity among the public.... more>>

One day, everyone suddenly discovered that the green tea had changed...

In a romance variety show:

A s*umbag male guest affectionately said, "Chuchu, you look so beautiful when you cook. But be careful not to tire yourself out."

Ning Chuchu replied, "Are you a garbage bag? How good at pretending. Instead of worrying about me getting tired, why don't you come over and help?"

s*umbag male lead, "...?"

Ning Chuchu closed off her heart and crushed all the male contestants, not meeting a worthy opponent.

In the end, the production team asked her to choose one male contestant to hold hands with, and she...

Took away the stray dog the production team had adopted. A male dog.

—What was originally a romance show turned into Ning Chuchu's comedy solo.

During an interview:

Reporter: "Was your collaboration with Director Song pleasant?"

Ning Chuchu: "It's okay. It would've been better if he stopped knocking on actress' doors all the time."

— Director Song, a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, was blacklisted due to the unspoken rules he imposed on others.

Forced to do a live-stream sales promotion by her agency, Ning Chuchu smiled and said:

"Look at this face mask... It's completely useless."

"My skin is so good... Of course, it has nothing to do with face masks."

"If you have money, go for cosmetic procedures. Buying this is just a waste."

- Agency: ...facepalm.jpg

In the end, the well-known green tea became a "s*umbag detector," a "holder of the hammer of Thor," and a "level ten roasting master." Countless fans loved her madly, peers praised her endlessly, and even her s*umbag father left all his assets to her in his will.

Ning Chuchu humble-braggingly complained:

I didn't want it to be like this, it's all because of the Truth System forcing me!

In the entertainment industry, s*umbags trembled in fear, afraid of being exposed by the fearless and straightforward Ning Chuchu. Many people wanted to blacklist her, smear her name, but she always managed to turn the tables and rise higher.

Later on, someone finally dug up some dirt on her:
As a rising star, Ning Chuchu actually had a fiancé!

When the news came out, the whole internet boiled.

Ning Chuchu refuted the rumors: It's a business arrangement. There are no feelings involved, and the engagement will be dissolved soon.

Netizens: ...Damn, you're so ruthless that you even exposed yourself?!

However, her fiancé, a young and powerful figure from a wealthy family, publicly stated: Wedding preparations are underway.

Ning Chuchu: ...You didn't have this attitude before :)

The fiancé smiled faintly.

#The truth might be delayed, but it will never be absent#

Ning Chuchu: After being a "green tea" for so many years, it turns out that speaking the truth is gratifying! <<less

The absurd adventure story of Ian, a wizard in a medieval fantasy world.

Before the college entrance exams, Tian Ruan accidentally drowned. When he woke up, he became a minor character, a ‘small dad,’ in a Jinjiang BL novel. ... more>>

In the original story, the ‘small dad,’ at just twenty years old, schemed to seduce the powerful head of the Yu Family, Yu Jingmo, the aloof and ruthless adoptive father of the main character, the protagonist's top. Thus, he transformed from a chicken into a phoenix, becoming a young dad in a wealthy family. Despite this, Yu Jingmo had no feelings for him whatsoever and never touched him. Their marriage was only to quell public gossip.

As a minor character destined for failure, the young dad had two main achievements: constantly challenging the patience of his powerful husband and repeatedly creating obstacles for the main character's adopted son.

In short, the young dad was a reckless fool, ultimately getting killed due to being entangled in wealthy family disputes the year the main character finished his college entrance exams.

Tian Ruan crossed over and shivered anxiously.

At night, his exceptionally handsome and unmatched husband returned and asked him why he was trembling.

Tian Ruan: Can we get a divorce?

Yu Jingmo: Go read the prenuptial agreement again.

Clause five of the prenuptial agreement stated that their marriage would last for three years and automatically void after that period. If either party violated the agreement during this time, they would owe the other party one hundred million euros.

Tian Ruan: ...

Unable to afford the divorce, Tian Ruan had to find another way to escape the intrigues of the wealthy family.

He turned his attention to the seventeen-year-old main character - young, tall, handsome, and looking good in a school uniform.

Tian Ruan was envious to the point of tears.

Yu Jingmo's expression darkened: What are you looking at?

Tian Ruan, tearfully and pitifully: Hubby, I also want to go to school QAQ

Yu Jingmo: ...

Protagonist's top: ...

What is this little dad up to?

To everyone's shock, a week later, Tian Ruan actually put on a school uniform and went to school. He even ended up in the same class as his nominal adopted son.

Tian Ruan: Son, let me copy your homework.

Tian Ruan: Son, make sure you get along well with your little beloved. I would never separate true love.

Tian Ruan: Son, I'm going on a date with your dad tonight; is it inappropriate to wear a school uniform?

Protagonist's top: ...

The magical school life of a twenty-year-old high school student in a wealthy family began.

Initially, Yu Jingmo watched with cold detachment. He didn't really believe that Tian Ruan wanted to go to school. However, a month passed, and Tian Ruan still gleefully carried a backpack to school every day. Once home, he diligently did his homework, looking every bit the innocent model student.

Yu Jingmo gazed at Tian Ruan's straight, slender legs peeking from beneath the school uniform and his snow-white wrists smudged with a bit of ink, his eyes deepening.

Tian Ruan in a school uniform was unexpectedly alluring.

The old man's heart stirred, while the young spouse remained oblivious to their own allure.

In a much later interview, a certain famous, detached, and stoic big shot remarked that youthful innocence is enticing.

[High-ranking, powerful, cold-hearted, fiercely doting daddy-type top]

[Pure high school boy with a touch of natural charm as the bottom]

Mini-theater:

The original story's main character (the bottom) was being troubled by some thugs, and the protagonist's top went to rescue them. Tian Ruan accidentally got involved.

Thug: If you want to save your son and son-in-law, you have to bring a million.

The protagonist's bottom grabbed a brick and attacked the thug, and the protagonist's top, face flushed, also joined in fighting.

Thug, clutching his head and fleeing: Fifty thousand, ten thousand, no, even a thousand will do!

Tian Ruan called Yu Jingmo: Honey, someone is blackmailing me. Can you come pick me up? I want to go home and do my homework.

Yu Jingmo: Sweetheart, hold on. No matter what they ask for, just agree to it for now. Don't get hurt.

Tian Ruan: Our son got hurt.

Yu Jingmo: He's tough; he'll be fine.

After entering a tragic novel, Jiang Chi vows to rescue the protagonist shou.... more>>

This is a “marriage-for-luck” novel. The protagonist gong, Qin Yan, a wealthy and powerful man, marries the protagonist shou to bring good fortune after an accident leaves him in a coma. When Qin Yan wakes up, he is unwilling to let the protagonist shou go and forcibly keeps him, causing both emotional and physical torment.

Backstage at the wedding, Jiang Chi meets a handsome young man in a wedding suit.

The young man’s face is pale, cold, and aloof, but his eyes are full of emotion. When their eyes meet, Jiang Chi is instantly smitten.

Jiang Chi promptly picks up the frail young man and runs off with him.

That day, the Qin family urgently cancels the wedding because—

The family head, Qin Yan, has fled the wedding.

Jiang Chi hadn’t finished reading the original story, so he doesn’t know that the coma was a ruse or that he’s rescued the wrong person. Not only does he treat Qin Yan as the protagonist shou, but he also teaches him many dating skills to deal with the protagonist gong.

Qin Yan: This is very useful. I’ve learned a lot.

Qin Yan is cold by nature, raised in a world full of scheming and deception. He’s used to hiding his emotions and has never loved anyone, nor has anyone dared to love him.

Until one day, a gentle and handsome man comes into his life, saying he’ll protect him forever.

From disregarding him to falling deeply in love, Qin Yan loses all control.

He will never let Jiang Chi leave.

Even if Jiang Chi has mistaken him for someone else.

Later, when Jiang Chi learns the truth:

[Love Tip #03: When the other person is angry, avoid confronting them directly. It’s better to show weakness, such as acting cute or calling them ‘Husband.’]

Qin Yan’s expression darkens, his eyes sharp: “Husband won’t stop loving me just because I’m gloomy, obsessive, and ruthless, right?”

Jiang Chi: “…Love? I love you way too much.”

On the day He Sui’an transmigrated into a book, she hit her head and had nowhere to go. She wanted to follow a young man, and then he took her in and cared for her. This young man who took her in came from the mysterious and legendary Miaojiang.... more>>

She didn’t really like the insects and snakes on him.

But she didn’t know anyone else, so she chose to stay by his side.

As they got along, Qi Buyan found He Sui’an to be fragrant, so she let him smell her as much as he wanted.

Qi Buyan didn’t understand why men and women needed to hide their intimacy and was curious about what it felt like, so He Sui’an stood on her tiptoes and kissed him.

Qi Buyan liked the feeling.

But she was anxious because he seemed unsatisfied with just a kiss.

Qi Buyan once said to her with a smile, “People from our place cannot tolerate betrayal.”

He Sui’an stammered, “I-I won’t.”

But one day, He Sui’an hit her head again.

She regained her memory and realized that she was a transmigrator, and this young man from Miaojiang was a character not to be messed with in the book, or else he would easily feed his gu to her.

He Sui’an fled.

On the third day of her escape, she saw the young man again.

In the pouring rain, Qi Buyan’s pale face looked eerie and terrifying, and the snake he raised climbed up her leg and bound her hands.

That night, the young man fed her something.
