Eligos, whose arm was wrapped around me, slowly stooped his head down, and we closely sensed each other's breath. His firm fingers dazedly rubbed my lower lips. The moment I looked at Eligos with reddened eyes, his arm that had been on my waist tightened. Eligos, who laid me down on the bed in an instant, gave me a beautiful smile.

“Ruby. I wish for you to have me tonight.” <<less

Waking up one morning, Xiao Wange found herself in a different time and place, she unexpectedly crossed over! Transported to the backward 1980s, she became a malnourished, emaciated village girl!... more>>

What’s terrifying is that this village girl was sold by her parents as if she were an object. She was sold to an elderly man who had lost his wife to be his bride. Even more frightening, this elderly man had a 3-year-old son, and she was supposed to be his stepmother!

Xiao Wange: “…”

Others who have crossed over usually become princesses or noble ladies, enjoying luxurious lives. Why did she, upon crossing over, end up becoming a bride to an old man? And she has to be a stepmother too? It must be because her posture when crossing-over was wrong!

When that tall, handsome “old man” stood before her, her eyes brightened, and she immediately rushed over to hug his arm: “Husband~”

Hearing her sweet call of “husband,” the “elderly man” couldn’t help but be speechless: “…”

My family happened to be a famous master swordsman family, that will also be shattered and destroyed by the main character in the early days.

There are three sons in this house. The first one is called a genius, the second one is called a mad dog, and the third one is hard to see even if they live in the same house.

Of all things, I’m the youngest in this family.

According to the original, she grew up immature and is destined to die by her older brother and is an extra, who claims to be the ninth wife of the novel’s protagonist.

‘Brother! I will help you!’

First of all, in order to avoid the death flag, I repaired the third older brother, who became a Villain due to a sense of inferiority.

As I got closer to my brother like that, it seemed like I was gradually creating a future that was different from the original, but-

“Hello, Lady.”

The first brother, who lacks character, brought her in.

When Qin Yan was five years old, she left the capital with her mother and went to the Pingxi Army under the command of her grandfather, Duke of Zhenguo, in the Northwest. When she returned twelve years later, things were different.... more>>

After the mother was attacked and disappeared, everyone in the Prime Minister Mansion only knew of Concubine Song, but not her mother, the honorable mistress. They only knew that there was only one Miss Nian in the mansion, and they did not know that there was also her, the only eldest young lady of the first wife.

The concubine took over her mother’s dowry and pretended to be rich and generous to win people’s hearts. The concubine-born younger sister, with the identity that belongs to Qin Yan, was mixed up like a fish in water in the circle of noble daughters in the capital, and she also intended to get involved with Qin Yan’s fiancé.

The people in Prime Minister Mansion thought that Qin Yan could only be at their mercy when she returned to the capital alone. However, they never thought that within a few days of returning to the capital, Qin Yan was granted the title of Princess of Zhaoren by the emperor and given a palace as the Princess Mansion.

When Qin Yan took back the dowry that belonged to her mother, only then did her father Prime Minister Qin and Concubine Song knew that Qin Yan was the owner of Yu Qingfeng, the first bank in Great Xia.

The City Master of Gu City, an important town outside the Northwest Pass, was known as the owner of Yu Qingfeng, the first bank in Great Xia which claimed to be able to reach half the national treasury.

Everyone in our family has their own secrets.... more>>

My mom is the only daughter of a former interstellar pirate, my father is a secret agent of the Old Century Allied Political Army. My adopted older brother has a special bloodline of beastmen, and the sister we picked up from the roadside is actually a master of witchcraft with mystical lineage.

And I, an ordinary eighteen-year-old male high school student, the only biological son of my parents, has no special bloodline, and has been a “normal person” since birth

The reason why I can know everyone’s secrets is because-

I transmigrated.

I was originally an ordinary person on the edge of the class, classmates couldn’t even remember my name occasionally. I refused all social activities that might attract attention, and kept to myself at school.

For some reason, I offended the tough guys in school, and they began to target me openly and secretly, but I never fought back.

Everyone thought I was timid and cowardly, and I never explained.

Because I just wanted to be an ordinary person.

Until one day, I intervened to save a classmate who was being bullied. I accidentally exerted too much force, causing multiple serious injuries. As they lay on the ground unable to get up, I personally took them to the hospital.

Since then, whenever the tough guys who call themselves the school bullies see me, they can’t help but feel weak in the knees—

Yes, as one of the members of this special family, I also have a little secret:

Before transmigrating, I cultivated for a hundred years, with profound cultivation, just a half step away from ascension.

In short, invincible.

The classmate I saved recently has been looking at me strangely.

One day, he found me, his beautiful almond-shaped eyes turning, and he stared at me and said:

“I know your secret.”

I immediately covered his mouth, pushed him into the corner, avoiding the sight of others, and calmly questioned him: “What do you know?”

He’s the antagonist of this book. Although it will be another ten years before he turns dark, if he finds out that this world is a book, many things will go awry

I don’t want to get involved in any trouble, so I must not let him discover me—

“You like me.”

Transmigrated.

The Alpha bigshot of the Federal Military, Huo Yan, took a liking to that obedient and submissive pretty little plaything.

No matter how Huo Yan treated him as less than human, he only lowered his snowy white neck, obediently kneeling on the ground, removing Huo Yan’s shoes and socks upon his late-night return, timely offering warm and palatable hangover soup.

What a convenient little plaything, Huo Yan thought.

Until one day, Huo Yan suddenly realized that he had the ability to hear others’ thoughts.

Upon returning home, the pretty Omega approached, gently and humbly kneeling as usual to remove his shoes and socks. However, Huo Yan heard a deeply annoyed sound from him, [“Tsk.”]

……

Huo Yan’s face turned ashen, he restrained himself, holding him to sleep. Although the Omega had a shy and delighted expression, that intensely repulsed voice in his heart struck his eardrums even more fiercely.

[“This frantic dog in heat!”]
Huo Yan: ?

Huo Yan raised the chin of the pretty Omega with his polished shoes, his lips curling with disdain, “Are you willing to do anything for me?”

The seemingly harmless thistle flower nodded docilely, forming a stark contrast with the gritted-teeth thought.

The self-assured Huo Yan smiled.

He played with this wild and unmanageable pretty plaything between his fingers, like a cat toying with a mouse, planning to torture it to the brink before ruthlessly crushing this fake and deceptive plaything!

He was too impatient to witness the despair in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, when the thistle flower turned its head, it tore off a chunk of his flesh.

Looking at the Gedo Mazo Pipe inserted in the back of ‘old age Madara’, he was silent and even wanted to laugh.
