Xia Qing died and was forcibly thrown into a book, becoming a sidekick to a tyrant. The system told him that as long as he took over the tyrant’s body and completed the plot, he could come back to life. Xia Qing looked at the unpredictable and cruel new emperor of the Chu Kingdom in front of him, rolled his eyes, and said, “Come back to life? Don’t you know I died poor in my previous life? Get lost, don’t stop me from reincarnating.”... more>>

The system shrank back, bracing itself, “Um… Host, how about I introduce the plot to you first? Maybe you’ll change your mind.”

Xia Qing reached out and grabbed it, “I don’t want to hear it. Shut up and send me back.”

However, the system didn’t shut up. Right in front of him, it talked non-stop, rapidly narrating a cheesy and popular story. The plot of the tyrant in the book was basically a series of suicidal actions in the early stages, followed by being hopelessly in love with the protagonist but unable to be with him, getting tortured and heartbroken to death.

The system cautiously asked, “Don’t you want to know the ending?”

What a joke. Xia Qing covered its mouth, “I don’t!”

“But I do.” A light laugh came from across the table.

Xia Qing and the system looked up at the same time.

The young emperor, who had been turning pages with his head down, finally put down the book and looked over. With his flowing black hair and snowy white robe, he placed his hand on the table and smiled gently at Xia Qing. His voice became tender and affectionate, as if whispering to a lover, “Go on, let him speak. I want to hear my own ending.”

Cold as ice, his tone was so light that it seemed capable of cutting through moonlight.

***********

For certain reasons, the two of them reached an agreement.

#What’s it like to have a double soul with the tyrant?#

#It’s a tale of surviving (suicidal) in the palace.#

***********

Lou Guan Xue was inherently cruel and sinister, with deep-seated hatred buried within his flesh and blood, like an evil spirit. When he first met the soul from another world, his mind was cold, and he only wanted to use him. But unexpectedly, due to a twist of fate, that person saw all his past — he saw the ugliest, most cowardly, and humiliating side of him, yet chose to rescue him from those memories filled with mud and blood.

Lou Guan Xue once thought about killing him.

But on the day when the tower collapsed, with merfolk turning into demons and darkness enveloping the world, that person put down his sword and his soul disappeared.

He knelt before the formation with bloodshot eyes, his black hair turning white, falling into madness overnight.

***********

Afterward, Lingwei flowers blossomed throughout the heavens and earth, in the blue sky and yellow springs, all in search of one person.

Author’s remark:

1. 1v1, very sweet!

2. The character setting for the attacker is actually quite satisfactory! And the receiver’s soul flying away isn’t caused by the attacker, mainly for the sake of returning to the original body (the synopsis feels like too many spoilers, whatever, it’s just a short story, love it or leave it)! Actually, there’s not much emotional turmoil in the plot. <<less

My boyfriend died when we loved each other the most.... more>>

He suddenly spoke gently in a tone I never taught him:

Jian Shu was sent by his family to the remote Yucheng to serve a "god" who has been worshipped for thousands of years.... more>>

It was a sham.

The "god" was a bloodthirsty evil spirit, not gentle and kind.

The large ancient mansion was dark and cold, and Jian Shu was the only living person there.

He didn't know that he was sleeping with an evil spirit that had been starving for a thousand years, but he brought offerings every day and worshipped him with fear. If he was afraid, he would stay in the ancestral hall and talk to the "god" in a low voice.

The boy's troubles and joys woke up the sleeping "god".

One day, he fell asleep curled up on a futon.

When he woke up, a clear hickey appeared above his collarbone.

Gradually, something changed inside the ancient mansion that didn't see the light of day.

It started out as a light to welcome him back.
An extra blanket on his body as he fell asleep.
A touch with a chilly air as he walked through the hallway.

Later, hearing the young man crying and praying in the ancestral hall, the invisible "god" in the ancient house finally appeared from the darkness.

"Come here." He stretched out a pale hand, helplessly and dotingly. <<less

As the grandmaster of demonic cultivation, Wei Wuxian roamed the world, hated by millions for committing acts of necromancy. Overthrown by the powerful clans he had attempted to subjugate, Wei Wuxian is supposedly killed by his shidi in order to save the cultivation world. ... more>>

Restored to life in the body of Mo Xuanyu, the local cut-sleeve lunatic, in order to exact revenge on his abusive relatives, Wei Wuxian quickly finds himself spiralling back into his old life when he’s taken away by the cold-hearted, stern, and ultimately quite boring Lan Wangji – who might be harbouring warmer feelings than contempt. Perhaps of the…romantic kind?

But despite his new beginning, Wei Wuxian begins to unravel a decade and a half long mystery that is set to undo the very fabric of the cultivation world as they know it.

“This baby isn’t yours.”... more>>

Simon’s eyes glistened coldly at my words. Apparently he’s smiling, but in a strange and spine-chilling tone, Simon asked me.

“…Oh, really?”

That low, shady voice, pretending to be gentle. The anger in his voice was cold and cruel enough to freeze his surroundings.

“Then, which bastard does that child belongs to?”

He’s angry. I’ve known him for a long time that’s why I could tell. That’s the voice that comes out when he can no longer hold back his anger. But then… why the hell is he so upset?

“If you’ll know, what are you going to do?”

“That jerk can’t even be a good father so…”

“…… so what?”

“I can’t let him live.”

Oh no. I’m in trouble. After seeing his golden eyes lit with fire, there’s no way I could tell him now that it’s his child.

As the owner of an ordinary bookstore, Ling PingAn’s biggest wish was to muddle through life and do absolutely nothing. ... more>>

However, customers that were right in the middle of their pubescent crisis kept visiting his store in the dead of night.

For the sake of his business, Ling PingAn had to mimic their childish tones, sparing no effort to promote the books in his store.

When he finally managed to sell his books after going through a great verbal tug-o-war, each and every one of them said that they don’t have money and that they wish to use various tools that were seemingly divine artifacts as pledge.

Looking at these customers, Ling PingAn could only agree to them resignedly.

But little did he know that every single book that these customers purchased from him had altered in appearance.

“Secrets of Cosplay” became “Lower Abyss Research Report”
