To care for her ailing sweetheart, college student Lu Chenchen gave up her white-collar office job and chose the higher-paying caretaker profession instead. Going around in circles, she ended up at the Mao family’s home.... more>>

The Mao family background was complicated. Old Madam Mao was not her son Yanning's birth mom, but his young aunt. His wife was Old Madam Mao’s first love's daughter, spoiled and pampered. Despite over ten years of marriage, husband and wife were distant.

To repay Old Madam Mao’s kindness in raising him, and for the sake of his three children, Mao Yanning endured again and again - not just a loveless but outright destructive marriage.

Lu Chenchen walked on eggshells among these people - carefully serving young and old, currying favor with the lady of the house without offending the man of the house, while also worrying about his sweetheart’s illness and missing “his” elders and children back home. Her heart was like a cookie flattened between the pages of life, living a difficult and cautious existence.

However, as the saying goes, "You reap what you sow." A life that has been polished will eventually shine with a brilliance that ordinary years cannot compare. <<less

"Liana, please caress me. It feels good when you touch me."... more>>

I transmigrated into an explicit 19+ novel as the villain.
And it happened to be at the moment when I was about to take over the Emperor on the bed.

Until then, I thought I had died without moving a muscle.
Enoch Philip de Harte. He was a tyrant who hated any contact with others.

But this man is strange.

"Didn't we promise to touch today? I even wore something easy to take off."

It seems he has a slightly unique taste.

"All my firsts were with you. So Liana, I hope you'll be that kind of person too."

It seems a bit affectionate.

And that's not all.

He even insists that I am the cure to melt the ice in his heart and follows me around...

Your Highness, is it really just melting the ice that you need?

"Liana."

"...."

My funeral has begun.... more>>

“How can she not shed tears when her twin sister died?”

“I heard she’s an idiot, so the rumors must be true.”

“I heard she has an inferiority complex. Who knows, maybe she is happy inside.”

I died of poison. And overnight I became Mergen’s burden, Irene.

You said you wanted to live like me? No, Irene. You shouldn’t live like that.

***

“You’re not going anywhere without my permission, Noona.”

Since when did Abel, who treated Irene like a bug, start calling me Noona?

“Keep your promise. Our deal isn’t over yet.”

My ex-fiancé, with whom I had a strictly business relationship, started treating Irene like the old me.

“I don’t care what it is. I’m a vulgar mongrel, unlike you, so I can digest whatever I swallow.”

Why does the Grand Duke, whom I thought was the enemy, do this?

The attitudes of the three men are puzzling. It is said that there are no permanent enemies or allies, but has there ever been a time when things were so unclear as now? <<less

‘If you want to kill me, be honest. I will die.’... more>>

As rumoured, the Fourth Prince, who had seemed frail and meek when he was berated during their first meeting, had a rather picky and eccentric personality.

“There is only one thing I want. Make a place for me to be by your side.”

It was a reunion after 6 years, and a marriage proposal.

“If I fulfil your wishes, what will you give me?”

“I’ll give you my everything.”

A knight who lost her family to an enemy spy, was praised as a war hero.

A half prince who inherited the blood of an enemy country, was ignored as a shame of the royal family.

The couple’s marriage caused a stir throughout the Kingdom.

* * *

‘There is no need for love between you and me.’

Reasonable distance.

Moderate affection.

A relationship where you know each other but nothing in detail.

“Adora, what’s really important is that I’m the only one who should know.”

It was like showing a beautifully wrapped surface.

The important part was cleverly hidden.

It was so pretty and so alluring that anyone could be tempted.

The man who reunited after six years was definitely different. <<less

In the Quaternary Period of the Cenozoic Era, humans became the Earth’s rulers.

Unfortunately, a great deal of humans from their birth to death can only make use of 3-5% of their brain. This is an incredible waste. The human brain has unlimited potential to be unearthed. As the depth of brain region increases, mankind can become smarter, become stronger.

Wait…

There seems to be something wrong somewhere… then what did she enter the palace for?!!

The new Emperor, Yu Wen Lan, has two secrets.

Since his ascension to the throne, he has gradually lost his male functions; yet at the same time, he can read minds.

Getting used to seeing their false words and hypocritical faces every day, he grew all the more unfeeling.

That was, until one day, he heard a special heart’s voice——

[Isn’t this a f*cking waste of natural resources?]

Yu Wen Lan paused, narrowing his eyes to look in the direction of a delicately pretty and pure looking girl.

[God, for you to make such a handsome hunk unable to XX, doesn’t your conscience hurt at all?]

[Is there any way to revive it???]

[Ten-fold complete rejuvenation of spring pill, restoration of a man of character pill; if those don’t work, then have you tried return of the yang acupuncture?]

Yu Wen Lan, “???”

Until she ascended to the position of Empress, Yan Shu also didn’t know how she had jumped unreasonably on the Emperor’s bottom line repeatedly, yet had jumped straight in, becoming the first person to be in his heart.

Perhaps, it was just her good luck. <<less
