He sat on the sandy beach, looking down at his hands.

He had five fingers on each hand, joined together by blue webbing. He stared at his hands. The webbing disappeared, seemingly absorbed into his body.

His skin became hard and dry. Textures began to form.

He sat there, pondering.

Who am I?

He seemed to be experiencing rather than thinking.

He could sense the damp heat of water vapour caressing his body; hear the quiet sloshing of water from afar, wave after wave; feel the grains of white sand digging into his skin.

He experienced things. But when he reached with his hand, he could not seem to grasp what they were.

He reached again and touched the corners of his mouth, noticing its upward arch. He made an expression known to humans as a smile.

Soon, the expression shifted into something else.

He sat there, cried and laughed, crying and laughing, as his chest rioted with brimming emotions. <<less

Shen Miao, the Di daughter of a military family, was pure, quiet, gentle, and gracious. Because of her foolish love for Prince Ding, she forced her way into becoming his wife.... more>>

After six years of assisting her husband, she finally became the mother of the world: The Empress.

She had stayed with him during the fight for dominion over the empire and during the efforts to expand its territory. She even went so far as to put herself in danger and be taken hostage by a neighboring empire. In spite of this, when she returned to the Imperial Palace five years later, she no longer had a place in the Imperial Harem.

That beautiful woman he kept in his embrace gave her a bright, stunning smile and told her, “Older Sister, the country has settled down. It is time for you to step back as well.”

Her daughter died tragically and her son the Crown Prince was deposed. No one in her Shen family, who had been completely loyal to the Emperor, were spared. With arrival of a new reign, everything was overturned!

Shen Miao never thought that all of the perils they encountered as husband and wife, all of the assistance they gave each other mutually, were nothing but a joke in his eyes!

He told her, “Because you have been with this Emperor for more than two decades, this Emperor will allow you to keep an intact corpse. You should be grateful for this kindness.”

Beneath a meter of white silk, Shen Miao established a malicious oath: Once the day of reckoning arrives, every single one of you will die!

Once reborn, she returns to the year when she was only fourteen years old, a time when tragedy has not yet befallen, when her family still lived, and when she was still the pure, quiet, gentle, and gracious Di daughter of a military family.

Close relatives conceal evil intentions, her cousins are vicious and merciless, the new concubine is like tiger watching its prey and that scum wants the previous life’s events to be repeated?

Her family must be protected, the great enmity must be avenged, and the prize must include the empire’s imperial throne. In this lifetime, let us see who comes out on top!

But that Xie Family’s young marquis, that tyrannical and arrogant spear-wielding young man on horseback, stays stubbornly on her side and proudly declares, “It is merely toppling the Imperial Family. Do not forget, the world belongs to you, and you—you belong to me!”

–

The Thirteen Capitals of You Zhou: This belongs to you.

Bian Yi was the antagonist of a BL Novel who got his body stolen by a transmigrator.... more>>

Bian Yi became aware of that fact only after being imprisoned for more than a decade.

In this book, Bian Yi and his childhood friend Kou Li, who also happened to be the Gong Protagonist, fell in love with each other and got married. However, when Kou Li suffered a decline in his business, Bian Yi left his son and ran away. The antagonist canon fodder who ran away didn’t expect that Kou Li would be able to rise again in a few days, nor did he expect that the son he abandoned would become an absolute genius in the future.

The transmigrator was sent to the moment Bian Yi left home. He, who was well aware of the plot, and had the same face as Bian Yi, brought big bags of gifts to Bian Yi and Kou Li’s home.

The door was opened and a storm brewed into the eyes of the man at the other side of the door.

The transmigrator tilted his head, smiled at Kou Li, and said to him: “What is it? You know how hard it is to raise a kid, right? Don’t be angry with me, I brought you a present.”

Since then, both his husband and son no longer belonged to Bian Yi.

Ever since that moment, the trapped Bian Yi tried everything to escape. However, he failed to free himself every single time. In the end, he died with great resentment.

Bian Yi thought that this would be the end of his miserable life, but he never expected that a voice, who claimed to be a ‘Revenge System’, would find him.

Bian Yi then returned to the first year after being replaced.

The first thing Bian Yi did, once he came back, was to buy a knife at a supermarket and rush towards Kou Li’s house. As he held the knife against his former husband’s neck, he shouted crazily: “Are you f*cking blind?!”

There was blood dripping on the floor.

Bian Yi was pinned against the wall, and his neck was bitten roughly by that man.

Kou Li, whose lips were still stained with Bian Yi’s blood, was acting even madder than Bian Yi. When suddenly, Bian Yi heard that man’s hoarse voice ringing in his ears: “After seventeen years, you’re finally back.” <<less
