Mia Luna Tearmoon, Princess of the Tearmoon Empire, muttered to herself as she stood shackled on the execution platform.

The faces of the spectators surrounding her were, without exception, filled with indignation.

Before long, Mia was executed at the hands of the revolutionists, who were fed up with the heavy taxation.

But the next moment, she unexpectedly found herself lying on her bed.

It was eight years ago, when she was just a mere kid.

For a while, Mia even wondered if she was hallucinating. However, what appeared on her bedside table was a bloodstained diary that she had written herself.

That day, Mia's screams could be heard echoing throughout the palace.

Mia was not a vicious person by nature. She was simply incapable of understanding the pain and hunger of others, and by the time she discovered it, it was already too late to do anything.

After she regressed back to her childhood, Mia struggled hard to trace back the events of the past with the help of her blood-stained diary and memories.

Was it to save the future of a declining empire?

Was it to save the soldiers who died in the civil war?

Was it to save the people from famine?

No, she had only one goal.

To avert her fate of facing the guillotine (execution)! <<less

Post-apocalyptic World, Monster Invasion.... more>>

Monsters, strange phenomena, and disasters are constantly looming… Humans struggle in agony on the edge of life and death every day.

—Ye Yunfan woke up in such a world.

Upon opening his eyes, the whole world was dark and gloomy, with towering waves that made it seem as if it was the end of the world.

At that moment, Ye Yunfan realized he had transformed into a small, palm-sized pink octopus.

…Although not human, at least he wouldn’t drown.

However, in the next second, countless terrifying monsters roared and crawled out of the huge waves. They opened their bloody mouths wide like sacrificial bowls, exposing their sharp teeth.

Ye Yunfan: !!!

The little octopus immediately turned its head, and its eight small tent**les turned into propellers.

In this critical moment, someone suddenly descended from the thunderclouds a hundred meters high and, with one stroke of his knife, cut the monster in half.

Cut.in.half!!!

Ye Yunfan: “…..?”

—This guy is the real monster.

Before he could finish complaining to himself, he was lifted up by the guy using the back of the blade. The youth with heterochromatic eyes stared at him for a long time, tilting his head in confusion.

“Pink…jellyfish?”

Ye Yunfan: …It’s an octopus!

It’s a small pink octopus!!!

Yuan Ye is the most powerful, gifted ability user in history, but he suffers from a severe phobia of physical contact. As a result, he wraps himself up tightly all year round, even wearing two layers of gloves.

His therapist suggested that he first find something similar to human touch to adapt to. So Yuan Ye searched for a long time and finally caught a small jellyfish to try it out. Unfortunately——

“The little jellyfish had too few tent**les, only eight.”

Baby octopus Ye Yunfan: “…”

However, the little jellyfish did have a miraculous effect, and Yuan Ye’s illness was finally cured.

It’s just that the effect of the medicine was a bit too strong, causing him to develop a craving for the touch of tent**les.

Ye Yunfan: “……” I said it’s an octopus!

Her parents favored sons over daughters, selling her off at the age of seven. She ended up in the Marquis' mansion, becoming a lowly maid, toiling tirelessly every day. Later, when she was transferred to the courtyard of the eldest son, the lady of the house feared that her beauty would seduce the eldest son and decided to marry her off to a servant who beat his wife. It was then that she actively resisted.

Using all means, she became the honored Lady Jin in the backyard, thriving even after the mistress of the house passed away.

Unfortunately, the Marquis' mansion fell out of favor, siding with the wrong master. With the ascension of a new emperor, all the men in the Marquis' mansion were beheaded, and the women were given poison wine to end their lives.

Jin Xiuzhu closed her eyes in relief, but little did she know that when she opened them again, she had somehow transmigrated to a completely unfamiliar dynasty, as a widow whose husband had just died. Not only that, when her husband's comrades came to visit the family, she resorted to tactics to latch onto them, all for the sake of leaving the impoverished countryside.

Looking at the bare walls of the house and the man lying next to her, Jin Xiuzhu made up her mind, closed her eyes, and lay down to continue sleeping. <<less

[Blind (fake), flirtatious shou x restrained (real), criminal investigator gong].... more>>

Ying Wan was a blind person nobody wanted. He was picked up from an alley by Yu Baiqing, who was eight years older than him.

Adult Ying Wan became a blind bartender, while Yu Baiqing smoothly graduated from the police academy and joined Fan City’s criminal investigation team.

Seven years later, there was a major transnational case in Fan City.

With their backs to the wall, the criminal group seized Ying Wan as a hostage and demanded for the captain of the criminal investigation team, Yu Baiqing, to give up on capturing them.

Ying Wan could not see, so all he could hear was the sound of a bullet being loaded.

On that day, in front of Yu Baiqing, the bandit pointed the gun at Ying Wan and pressed the trigger.

–

When Ying Wan came to, he realized he was no longer blind.

He’d returned to the day he was held hostage.

Having regained his sight, Ying Wan recognized the handsome, tall criminal investigator amongst the mass of people in an instant.

That was his ge Yu Baiqing, who had raised him for more than ten years.

Yu Baiqing’s bloodshot eyes were locked unwaveringly on Ying Wan, who was in the hands of the bandit. Sweat and tears intermixed as they slid down his cheeks.

“Captain Yu, shoot me if you can!”

The criminal yelled arrogantly at Yu Baiqing in the distance. “Do you dare to use the lives of a few thousand people in exchange for your brother?”

The reborn Ying Wan watched with his own eyes as Yu Baiqing raised the gun in his hands and aimed it accurately at the bandit’s heart once more.

“…I’m sorry, Little Wan.”

He saw Yu Baiqing mouth ‘I. Love. You.’

–

Yu Baiqing always thought that the little blind person would never know, even till the day he died, that he’d liked him for many years.

‘We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.’

– Plato

Author’s Notes:

– This is a suspense, mystery novel with a Hong Kong-style of criminal investigation, but as a whole, it is impractical.

– Both are bigshots. Two sockpuppet spirits putting on a show about their birth (lit cigarette.jpg)

– There’s both the gong and shou’s POV, but more from the shou. Gong and shou are not related by blood, they call each other ge and di only because there is an age gap.

– 1V1, HE. Plot is complex but romance is sweet!! Please read with peace of mind~

– One last nagging statement – this is my own creative work, there is no relation to reality. Please don’t self-insert without any research. It’s a difficult environment, may readers please leave me with a way out, many thanks. <<less

Wen Zhao mysteriously transmigrated as villainous Mozun, Wen Fengming, from a xianxia novel he had read.... more>>

In the original story, Mozun committed a lot of atrocities. Upon suffering from demonic backlash, he betrayed his shizun, injuring his legs and drowned the immortal sect in blood; caused his xiao-shidi’s cultivation to be half-ruined, then he even ripped out the inner core of the sect’s guardian beast. His actions caused the world of the immortals to fall into great chaos. Eventually, he was attacked from all sides, condemned by heaven and earth, his bones crumbling to ashes.

Wen Zhao: …I think I can still salvage this.

Just as he was about to fight to change his destiny, he suddenly discovered—

The above plot didn’t happen at all; he transmigrated to that night when he fell into qi deviation.

His shidi, exhausted from protecting him, tugged on his cuff with a tearful face.

The prideful huge sect guardian, who drained his entire monster qi to suppress demonic qi, turned into a pocket-size tiny beast and fell into his arms.

And his beloved shizun blocked a fatal attack for him, staining his white clothes with blood. With a fiery gaze, his shizun extended his hand to him and said, “Sinful disciple, come here.”

In the cultivation realm, rumor has it that Wen Fengming became demonised.

He also soared to become everyone’s favorite.

Yan Qing transmigrated into a melodramatic cultivation novel, and arrived during the childhood of the powerful and tragic villain, who was immensely popular among readers. When he grew up, the villain was brilliantly talented and incredibly handsome; when he was small, the villain was pitiful, and almost starved to death one year in midwinter. ... more>>

Danger lurked around every corner in the cultivation world. In order to survive, Yan Qing could only display all kinds of outstanding skills, pretending to be well-behaved when he was in a superior position, and pretending to be pitiful when he was in a subpar position. He lived with the lovely little villain as two souls in one body, from the time when they disdained each other to the time when they lived and died together. He relied on swindling and lying to stay alive.

Afterwards, he found an opportunity to slip loose of his bonds, and the two mutually-irritated men parted ways.

After Yan Qing died and his soul scattered, he thought he would be able to return to the modern world. He didn’t expect that he would reincarnate into a small sect, and become the harsh, malicious cannon fodder who had a tragic ending???

The cannon fodder had a crush on the villain, so he forced a marriage on him.

However, the villain seemed pure as the moonlight on the surface, but was dark and ruthless to his bones. He could love no one other than the main character shou. The cannon fodder died of illness in bed, in so much pain he didn’t want to live, while his husband, the villain, indifferently played the qin in the courtyard.

Yan Qing almost spewed out his mouthful of water. Wonderful, Xie Shiyi. If I’d known earlier that you were such a scumbag, back when we were in Blackwater Alley, I’d have drunk water from the chamber pot every day with your body.

Xie Shiyi had once fallen into the abyss, kneeling and begging, no better than a dog, losing all of his dignity for a chance at life. One other person had seen this pathetic manner of his.

When he was young, he was sensitive and proud, and they often quarreled because of their different views. In his heart, he vowed that he would kill him one day.

But once the other man really vanished, he sat on Southmount Peak for a long time in silence.

He sat there until the plum blossoms had fallen, the snow cleared and the clouds dispersed. Only then did he quietly take up his sword and leave.

From then on, the world no longer knew the boy who lived as humbly as an ant in Blackwater Alley, Xie Shiyi.

There was only the young talent of Desireless Sect, who was cold and untouchable, Xie Ying. <<less

"This... what on earth happened?"

When Seo Jin-woo opened his eyes again, he found himself in a world that was an August summer rather than a December winter! Moreover, it seemed like he had returned to a time before his junior Ha Sung-min stole his idea during a planning meeting?

Despite resolving to quit before the thought of wanting to die crept in after his return to the past, things didn't go as planned.

"Now that I think of it, I didn't get to give proper feedback on the proposal due to the meeting going awry just a while ago. ―You've probably all heard it in advance during the announcement earlier anyways."

Executive Director Baek Eui-hyeon became an obstacle to leaving the company.
