In the thirtieth year, on a moonlit night, with the landscape adorned in splendor and the lotus pond full beneath the glowing moon. Princess Li Ying of Yong’an, gentle and kind-hearted, tragically drowned in the palace lotus pond at the age of sixteen. The Emperor, in his deep sorrow, nearly lost the will to live. Upon closer investigation, it was discovered that the princess had been pushed into the pond and drowned by her fiancé. In his rage, the Emperor executed the entire family of the fiancé, a noble family of high standing. This event severely weakened the power of the aristocratic families, while the commoners began to rise in power, leading to the commencement... more>> of the Taichang Reforms.

After the Emperor’s passing, history books later referred to him as the “Saint Ruler of the Renaissance” due to the Taichang Reforms. The mother of Li Ying, Consort Jiang, who had once been a palace maid, ascended to the position of Imperial Concubine, and eventually Empress, and later even crowned herself Emperor, alongside the Taichang Emperor, as two Saints. Everything they achieved was rooted in the early death of their beloved daughter, Li Ying.

Thirty years later, during a prosperous and peaceful era, while the people mourned the untimely death of the princess, they also found solace in the fact that her death had brought about so many changes. However, the soul of the young princess, still lingering in the mortal realm, appeared wearing the green silk gown she had worn when she drowned. Her face, preserved at the age of sixteen, with its delicate beauty, found the infamous and ruthless Minister of Affairs, Cui Xun, who was plagued by countless illnesses. She said to him, “I need your help to investigate a case.”

She continued, “I want you to find out who killed me.”

Su Tangxue transmigrated into a book—into the most popular novel currently trending—and she happens to have the exact same name as the vicious female supporting character in the story.

As soon as she opened her eyes, the world spun. She woke up to a chorus of curses and insults.

Can someone please tell her why her clothes are disheveled and there's a wound on her lip?

After receiving the original host’s memories, she realized what happened: the original Su Tangxue had unbuttoned her clothes on the street and forcibly kissed the male lead, who was about to go on a blind date with her stepsister. As a result, he harshly threw her to the ground.

The whole situation gave her a massive headache.

Of all times to transmigrate—why did it have to be now?

In this era, forcibly kissing someone on the street could get you charged with hooliganism. Just as Su Tangxue was wondering how she could get through this mess, a tall, cool-eyed man—estimated to be over 1.8 meters tall with broad shoulders and a narrow waist—suddenly appeared in the courtyard and announced to everyone that she was his fiancée. What was going on?

Later, Su Tangxue found out that the man was none other than the male lead, Lu Qinglin.

Ning Honglian, having been reborn, swore never to repeat the mistakes of her previous life. This time, she wanted to marry the son of the textile factory director. After all, in her past life, Lu Qinglin had become disabled during a mission two years into their marriage. They never had a proper married life, and Ning Honglian grew tired of it.

Meanwhile, Su Tangxue had a big, happy family and a thriving career. All her sons turned out outstanding, which filled Ning Honglian with envy.

So in this life, she was determined not to choose Lu Qinglin again.

But in the end… she regretted it.

Because—what was going on with that supposedly infertile man holding a baby in his arms? <<less

Married into the Marquis of Ningyuan’s household for over ten years, Shen Tangning believed she had done nothing wrong managing the household, honoring her in-laws, fulfilling every duty expected of her.... more>>

It wasn’t until the cold and distant heir of the family began an illicit affair with her now-sister-in-law (her once illegitimate younger sister), and the two joined forces to drive her out, that Shen Tangning realized just how horribly wrong she had been.

Given a second chance, she returns to the very day her illegitimate sister swapped marriage partners with her. Shen Tangning sneers coldly and decides to roll with the mistake—this time, she marries the useless, good-for-nothing second son of the family instead.

On their wedding night, the so-called wastrel husband lifts her veil, takes one look at her, and is so shocked he stumbles and falls to his knees.

Tears stream down Shen Tangning’s face, her eyes red.

"I was meant to be the heir's wife. Marrying you means my life is over."

Chi Yan feels a sudden tremble in his heart and fumbles around, utterly at a loss.

...And from then on—

He stopped gambling and idling and devoted himself entirely to his wife. <<less

When the news of the arranged marriage between the Su family and the Gu family came out, everyone said Su Shijin was unlucky.... more>>

Everyone knew that the eldest young master of the Gu family had been missing for 20 years and was found in a remote mountain hollow. His gland was damaged and he was definitely dysfunctional in that regard. He had a dark and ruthless personality and might be even a complete psychopath.

Su Shujin, on the other hand, felt that his arranged marriage partner was rich and handsome. He had a damaged gland, couldn’t perform in bed, and there would be no lifelong mark. They would divorce after one year and he would walk away with half of the family assets.

No matter how he looked at it, it was a win.

On the day of the wedding, Su Shujin laid down three rules with the alpha:

1. This is a contractual marriage—each gets what they want, don’t cross the line.

2. Separate bedrooms.

3. Handle your heat with suppressants on your own. Don’t come to me. See rule 1.

Gu Weiyang said nothing and nodded in agreement.

Then, one by one, all three rules were broken when Su Shijin unexpectedly went into heat.

The next day, Su Shijin, supporting his nearly broken waist and trembling sore legs, looked at the alpha kneeling by the bed with red ears while awkwardly handing him hot milk, and felt that something was off about the rumors.

What happened to the damaged gland, the dysfunction in bed, and the moody temperament??

The rumors were all fake!!

—

One day, Su Shujin was annoyed by the alpha who was in heat and he kicked backward with his foot pressing against the alpha’s face.

The alpha didn’t get angry. He just held Su Shujin’s ankle, gently kneaded it with care, and asked, “Why are you so cold?”

Then he casually tucked it into his own arms.

Su Shujin lazily glanced at him without saying a word. Seeing no reaction, Gu Weiyang quietly scooted over to him, wrapped himself around him like a big bear, and buried his face against him to sniff his pheromone scent.

Su Shijin’s neck started to itch from all the sniffing. He laughed and scolded, “Gu Weiyang, were you a dog in your past life or something?”

Gu Weiyang paused for a moment, then leaned in close to his ear and gave a low, “Woof.” <<less

Song Yun, a modern inheritor of ancient medical practices, accidentally transmigrates to the year 1973, becoming an unlucky girl unloved by her father and ignored by her mother.

She didn't even get to enjoy a single day as a capitalist's young miss before suddenly being thrust into the identity of one. Her once-devoted fiancé sends an urgent telegram demanding to break off the engagement.

Break it off? Absolutely—hurry up and do it!

A reborn woman thought that stealing Song Yun's fiancé would let her live the life Song Yun once had in her past life—becoming the wife of a high-ranking official.

But who would've thought that after getting married, year after year passed, and the man who had soared in his official career in his past life made no progress this time around?

What she couldn’t accept the most was that the adoptive parents she had ruthlessly abandoned didn’t die miserably in the countryside labor camp as before. Instead, after being cleared of their charges, they moved into a courtyard house in Beijing and now own wealth enough to last several lifetimes.

Meanwhile, Song Yun not only transforms into a **divine doctor**, but also marries the **most promising and youngest officer** in the military—completely overshadowing her on every level. <<less

He wondered if this emptiness was just what it meant to be a lifelong virg*n.

Then one day, he met a woman who made his mind and body finally wake up.

“Ara, let’s date.”

He thought dating would be easy — he’s always been showered with love anyway.

But reality turned out to be the opposite.

“Why are you suddenly asking me to date you?”

“Because… you made me react. Down there. A lot.”

“What the hell — you insane, perv*rted bast*rd!”

She dumped him. Brutally. That’s when he realized.

Oh. She doesn’t even know he’s that Kang Seohyuk.

If she saw his face properly, she’d say yes in a second.

Yeah — except that didn’t work either.

“If you really wanna date me, show me yours first.”

“Mine? You mean… down there?”

“What, can’t do it?”

For the first time ever, someone treated him like he was nothing — and it completely threw him off.

But his heart was pounding so loud he thought it might explode.

His whole body buzzed with a weird thrill he’d never felt before.

Why did he lose his mind every time she made that face?

Why did it feel so electric when she dug her heel into his thigh?

Even in the middle of humiliating shame, his whole body was screaming just one thing.

Don’t let her go. Hold on to her no matter what. <<less

The underworld’s information system was old, and her system was late in arriving. Song Jianzhi, oblivious and cautiously coasting along, ended up sleeping with someone.

System smiled: “Then do you know that Ming Xu is the female lead of this novel and your future mission target?”

Song Jianzhi: “What?!”

Song Jianzhi, who accidentally slept with her “love rival,” bravely began her work. She helped with scripts and variety shows, visited sets, and accompanied her on demanding tasks. Diligently fulfilling her role as the golden finger, she watched the female lead shine brighter and brighter, revealing a look of proud maternal satisfaction.

Later.

Ming Xu looked down at her, a strand of long hair falling across Song Jianzhi’s face: “They used to think we were love rivals; now they think you’re my…”

Song Jianzhi righteously interrupted her: “That’s their dirty minds! We’re just frien—”

Ming Xu’s voice was clear: “Girlfriend.”

Song Jianzhi: “Huh, huh?”
