During the 19th year of the Yuanqing Era, Qi Yunruo boarded a carriage and entered through a corner door of the second prince’s estate. Then, across the watery corridor, he gazed at the prince from afar.

———

The promotional record of a young teen married off as part of his legitimate sister’s dowry.

“Until the day humanity falls.”... more>>

In the year 2020, Earth’s magnetic poles disappeared and humankind was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Within the span of a hundred years, living creatures began to mutate and devour each other while the remaining humans, numbering in the tens of thousands, struggled bitterly in their man-made bases.

In the Abyss, home to the mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient little mushroom. Because it had been nourished by the blood and flesh of the deceased human An Ze, not only did it take on a similar-looking human form, but a similar name as well: An Zhe.

An Zhe is determined to go to the human base to search for his spore, which had been harvested by humans. Once there, however, he faces the omnipresent risk of discovery and certain death as he tries to keep his non-human nature hidden from the Judges, whose responsibility is to inspect for and eliminate xenogenics like himself. And of all the Judges, Colonel Lu Feng is the most perceptive and merciless—as soon as he determines that someone is a xenogenic, he will execute that person on the spot.

But An Zhe’s mutation goes undetected by Lu Feng’s eyes, and so a tale of humans and xenogenics unfolds…

Yu Fan: He’s asking if I’m scared.

Third glance.

The transfer student with his usual expressionless, iceberg-like face handed him a letter, “Classmate Yu.”

Yu Fan internally felt that this top student is annoyingly fastidious, even handing out a letter of challenge to request for a fight. He proceeded to roll up his sleeves and stand up.

“Please accept my love letter.”

Classmate Yu immediately sat back down.

What’s the point of getting married? Anyway, we’re going to divorce.... more>>

Divorcing anyway Omega (Mei Yisi) x absolutely not divorcing Alpha (Gu Shi)

Translator:

Mei Yisi is an unsociable omega who feels that everything and everyone is “uninteresting.” He goes on a blind date as a result of his parents’ pestering. He meets Gu Shi and marries him.

Why is Mei Yisi indifferent about who he marries? Why does he think he will get divorced sooner or later? Will Mei Yisi find this marriage “interesting” enough?

Note: This is essentially a long oneshot with two extras.

Play on words: The story title is “méi yì si de gù shi” with méi yì si meaning boring; uninteresting. The MC’s name is Mei Yisi, and Yisi means “he thinks.” The name adds a layer of irony/playfulness to the story, given that Mei Yisi is nonchalant about marriage and keeps thinking “we’re going to divorce, anyway.”

没意思(mei yi si, boring) and 梅伊思(Mei Yisi, the MC) sound similar. The author has used word play throughout the story. <<less
