As part of the imperial family, every move by Chu Yuan in this game of chess is made with apprehension, fearing that with a moment of inattentiveness, the whole match will be lost in a single move.... more>>

Ascending to the throne at eighteen, not half a year passes before civil strife erupts in Yun Nan. Though the thoughts of the old guard at the imperial court are not exactly identical, they are all waiting to see how the new emperor will put an end to this.

Unexpectedly, before this side could make a move, a few thousand miles away, the King of Xi Nan, Duan Bai Yue, had already personally commanded troops to attack in all directions; not half a year had passed when peace was restored.

Sparse moonlight shines into the palace; Chu Yuan stamped the wax seal himself, and had a secret letter sent urgently to Yun Nan 800 miles away — this time, what must we(1) give in exchange?

Brush marks passed through the back of the paper; it almost can be seen, when writing this line, how angry the young emperor was.

Duan Bai Yue spread out a piece of paper unhurriedly, replying with only one word.

You.

It was nice to have the first meeting with such a young male lead…

“Hello, Bouser Youngae (Polite way for noble’s daughter)”

“Uwa!!” You were mistaken for a girl and you cried?

Fortunately, she managed to resolve the misunderstanding and become close friends. However, the male lead in his childhood is more shy and soft-hearted than I thought.

Eventually, she became attached to the male lead and decided to become a real friend.

However, due to the disturbance of the male lead father and the war broke out, we had to be separated for a long time, I thought I could barely meet him again and stay the same as before but….

Tang Tang worked hard with acting as his ex-girlfriend, after hearing the whole fate of this character from the system. She humiliated the male lead and brutally split up with him. Even if she feels guilty, she believes she shouldn’t get in his way of getting stronger once the apocalypse begins, it was for his own good.

She has completed all her tasks now, so she happily asked the system: Can we prepare the time machine to go home now?

The system, however, spluttered: … That, it’s that…

Tang Tang panicked: What is ‘that’?

The system: Report, host! I received the information that, that your original body is gone.

Gone, gone….

Tang Tang looked at the close by male lead and cried: Dalao! Wait for me! <<less

Duan Yuche's father sponsored a poor student from the backwater mountainous area.... more>>

The poor student's parents were both dead, and he was taken home by Duan Yuche's father to live together and attend the same school.

This uninvited guest was extremely rural, with holes in his socks and patches on his clothes.

The worst part was that the poor student was a Tsinghua University preparatory student, and his father kept asking the poor student to tutor him.

The sickest thing was that the poor student said he liked him???

Subsequently, Duan Yuche went to study abroad and had no further contact.

A few years later, his father went bankrupt and died of illness. Duan Yuche went home dejected and depressed.

Indifferent younger Alpha × Teasing and seductive beauty Omega.

Yu Yang felt that the summer after graduating from high school was too long.

That omega, who claimed to like him and wanted to pursue him after just one meeting, left the country after spending a few months together. He only left behind a red envelope for further education and a simple note.

Four years later, Jin Wuqi returned to the country, standing in front of him with a smile. It was as if nothing had happened.

But Yu Yang didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes.

“You are a rose, the moon, the ocean. And you are also the wall filled with all the ironic past of my eighteen years of age.”

“The flowers you gave me have been stored away. They won’t grow beautifully again, having long withered.”

In the corner of the third floor of Kanghe Hospital, there is a forensic clinic with a schedule posted on the door:... more>>

Monday, Wednesday: Municipal Public Security Bureau
Tuesday, Thursday: District Public Security Bureau

Of course, that's just what ordinary people see. In fact, underneath lies another intriguing phrase discreetly concealed beneath the seemingly mundane information.
"Every fifteenth of the month, the Yin guest arrives. No exceptions. Find other arrangements if late."

On a certain fifteenth of a month, Yin Wushu stood on a black stone by the bridge and shouted at Xie Bai from a distance, "Since you moved to this ghostly place, you haven't let me in again."

Xie Bai gripped the door, expressionless, "Is that all?"

Yin Wushu continued, "After all, I've raised you with blood, sweat, and tears for nearly a hundred years."

Xie Bai's face remained cold, "So what?"

Yin Wushu suggested, "Should we go easy on the door?"

Without a word, Xie Bai raised his hand and with a loud "bang," slammed the door shut, causing even the stone bridge to shake.
Yin Wushu: "..."

Yin Wushu, dumbfounded and at a loss for words, gazed in disbelief, realizing that his heartfelt plea had been met with an indifferent and powerful rebuke.

In this complex and intricate narrative, we witness the tale of two individuals caught in the clutches of their twisted circumstances. One, the “Lived for too long and accidentally became twisted” pursuer, finds themselves entangled in the web of their own existence. The other, the “Lived too close to that twisted person and couldn’t avoid becoming twisted too” vulnerable and fragile recipient, narratively misleads us with their outward appearance, concealing a deeper fragility within. <<less

Three years ago, a grievous news came from the distant stars, Crown Prince Ryann died so heroically on the frontier that even his remains couldn’t be found and returned home. ... more>>

The Empire has lost its handsome and dazzling prince, as well as one of the strongest new crystal human beings in this century.

It was said that the prince left a poor widow behind.　　

… At the funeral, the young widow had black hair and white skin. He lowered his head in silence as he held the coffin.

The royal family and high-level officials of the empire couldn’t help frowning greatly: The person who made His Highness fall in love during his lifetime was actually such a vulgar creature.

******

Jiang Jianming worked like a salted fish in the imperial military academy for three years, and he was unremarkable to the extreme.

In the graduation season, he calmly rolled up his baggage and stepped into the cruel distant star battlefield to collect the body of His Highness.

Everyone knows that disabled humans are weak, and they have no fighting ability at all. How many people either sneered or regretted, just waiting to wrap the corpse of this young man who had exceeded himself?

Until later, the pale young man scoured the scorched earth covered in blood, and when he raised his hand, the sound of gunfire broke through the long night. The Milky Way was reflected in the bottom of Jianming’s eyes, and the blade of the mecha was bathed in crystal and starlight.

Behind him, countless new human beings were convinced by this ‘proud son of heaven’, and they all called him “commander” in unison.

The alien creatures were frightened and trembling;
The rich and glorious dominion star-lord treat him as a guest;
The mu*derous space pirate love and hate him…

Jiang Jianming smiled slightly: “Don’t be so exaggerated, I’m just a weak and sickly disabled human being.”
Imperial people: “?”

So when the monarch came back from hell to the world, facing the legendary story that his lover had turned the distant star upside down for him, the monarch raised his eyebrows coldly: “Nonsense. The commander is just a weak and sickly disabled human being… Tell me, who encouraged him into a mecha today?”
Imperial people: “???”

At the age of ten, Jiang Qi had black hair, shallow pupils, and a pale, delicate appearance. He often got injured, with blood flowing from his head. He was the son of a 'notorious' mu*derer in Chen Kong Alley, and people cursed him, saying that he had vile blood running in his veins. Except for Zhi Qi, no one paid him any attention.... more>>

Zhi Qi often cried while bandaging his wounds, her voice soft as she asked, "Why do you always get hurt? Does it hurt a lot?"

Jiang Qi smiled, the cold and rebellious boy appearing particularly obedient in front of her: "If you comfort me, it won't hurt anymore."

By the time he reached high school, he had become the most famous madman, cold and ruthless in all Lin Lan. Zhi Qi remembered Jiang Qi once saying that most of his life was lived like a dog. He would rather have everyone fear him than let anyone bully him.

Even though everyone feared him, Zhi Qi was not afraid.

Unfortunate people spend their entire lives healing from childhood, and Zhi Qi wanted to heal Jiang Qi with her own efforts. She would make a promise to him on the rooftop of the school, where he brought her to the top: "Jiang Qi, take care. When I reach the legal age, I can marry you."

The boy's response was a faint smile, his gaze clear and clean like the stars in the sky, filled with rare yearning for the future.

Zhi Qi didn't know that a simple promise saved Jiang Qi's life, pulling him out of hell.

Unfortunately, 'redemption' has an expiration date. When the clock strikes twelve for Cinderella, he remains the sick dog with nothing.

A crazy boy, and all the sweet names in his obscure life are called 'Zhi Qi'. <<less

In his previous life, Mu Zhiming was deceived and persecuted by the man he admired the most, dying tragically on the road of exile.... more>>

After being reborn, he was determined to change the course of events and have a peaceful life.

However, just when he started to seek power, come in contact with the mysteries of the Capital, a raging war, and the Princes disputing their claim to the throne; he caught a glimpse of a sincere love. Mu Zhiming fell into it, unable to stop himself.

Despite that, on their wedding night, the first thing Gu Heyan said to Mu Zhiming was: “I know that I’m nothing more than his replacement.”

Mu Zhiming: “….?? Husband, is there something wrong with your brain?”

Gu Heyan: “I don’t mind.”

Mu Zhiming: “….”

Gu Heyan: “When things are over, you can go find him. I won’t pursue you.”

Mu Zhiming: “….”

Gu Heyan: “I’m willing to be used by you.”

Mu Zhiming: “….”

Gu Heyan: “I’m already satisfied with your companionship, I won’t ask for anything else.”

Mu Zhiming couldn’t bear it anymore and dragged Gu Heyan towards their wing room.

Everyone in the world knows that Demon Lord Hua Che was cruel and vicious. A single disagreement could cause him to slaughter someone’s entire family. ... more>>

What raised everyone’s hackles, even more, was how he had kidnapped the Immortal Lord Chu Binghuan, before shamelessly forcing him to become his Daoist companion!

Everyone cursed him, calling him shameless and disgusting, but he completely disregarded them. Hua Che only gently and cautiously tried currying favour with his crush, his white moonlight.

However, even until death, the only things he managed to obtain from Chu Binghuan were the words “shameless”, and “we’re irreconcilable enemies”—these kinds of hurtful phrases.

Luckily, after being reborn, Hua Che finally understood: that stolen melons were not sweet. During such an excellent era, wasn’t strolling with a cat or teasing a dog also fun?

First, he had to go to Chu Binghuan’s family to break their arranged marriage.

However, the lofty Chu Binghuan, who was originally devoted to cultivating and always disdained his wooing, suddenly had a huge personality change. No matter where Hua Che went, he would follow, and it was impossible to lose him!

Hua Che borrowed a certain person’s words and said, “Shameless!”

Chu Binghuan: “You and I have long had an engagement, and we’ve even slept in the same bed. This is a matter of course.”

Hua Che continued borrowing someone’s words: “We are irreconcilable enemies who cannot live under the same sky!”

Chu Binghuan: “Then the two of us should travel beyond the sky, becoming the perfect immortal couple.”

Hua Che: “……” <<less

Shen Xingcong transmigrated into a specific starting point of the cultivation script and became the cannon fodder senior brother of Xiao Lin, the main villain in the text.... more>>

At that time, Xiao Lin was still an unworthy junior brother, but Shen Xingcong knew that this person would one day slaughter the whole family completely. Even his fellow teachers, who treated him very well, won’t be let off!

Therefore, when he woke up and saw his junior brother had been bullied and humiliated by the original owner, there was only one thought in his mind.

Well played!

Beat him to death, beat him to death!

Xiao Lin was born with an antisocial personality. Since it couldn’t be changed, it would be better to retaliate (cross out) and educate bluntly!

Shen Xingcong was no longer afraid.

.

Until one day, he came back home.

The baleful Shura stood among the sea of blood with a sword, his eyes were bright red, and he looked back at him.

Shen Xingcong straightened his neck firmly and waited silently for the sword to penetrate his chest. Unexpectedly, the man smiled.

“No one will hinder us again.”

His face was stained with blood, but his tone was utterly inconsistent with innocent.

“After I take over the sect, you will be the wife of the sect leader, okay?”

.

Xiao Lin was defective in human emotions and desires since childhood. He was unable to feel happy and never even feel pain. Only the sense of emptiness spreading unceasingly in his body.

Until that person appeared, a dark heart finally burst into waves.

He ignored the man’s terrified look. He pushed the man to the bed forcefully and brushed the corner of his reddened eyes with his cold fingertips.

“Senior brother is the one who provokes me first.”

His eyes were slightly curved, yet they seemed to sink into the mud, and the bottom couldn’t be seen.

“So, you should also be responsible to the end.”
