Tan Yin's luck had taken a dire turn recently. Not only had she severely offended Chu Hang, the heartthrob of the architecture department, who had just returned from a short-term exchange programme abroad, but she also got struck by lightning while walking in a thunderstorm! Somehow, instead of killing her, it gave her a new, strange ability: invisibility.... more>>

As the chosen one anointed by lightning, Tan Yin was ready to take on a huge task. Her plan was to make the most of the next thunderstorm to quietly destroy the incriminating evidence that Chu Hang held against her.

However, things didn’t go as planned.

When she stealthily approached Chu Hang as he took a shower, she saw him holding the incriminating evidence, staring at it coldly. It was a comic book that had recently taken the entire school by storm. In it, Chu Hang, as the male lead, embarked on romantic affairs, one after another.

Unfortunately...

They were all with men, and he was the submissive one.

Just as Tan Yin was about to steal back the comic from Chu Hang in the shower, the rain stopped, and her invisibility wore off...

Tan Yin stuttered an explanation, "Chu Hang, I…I can explain, It’s all a misunderstanding."

Chu Hang, his face devoid of expression, said, "A misunderstanding? I don't think so. The comic is well-drawn, full of variety, and undeniably stimulating. And now, you want to sneak a peek at me in the shower? Will you leave on your own, or do you prefer I escort you out?"

Tan Yin felt like crying but no tears came. She had pursued Chu Hang for half a year without so much as a glance from him, and now, through the worst possible fiasco, she had finally caught his attention.

Many days later…

Tan Yin pleaded, “I really made it all up in my head, you have to believe me...”

Chu Hang, holding the comic up, replied, “Oh, if you want to draw even better, imagination alone won’t suffice. You must also practice each scenario in reality.” <<less

Lin Shu took over a new team at the law firm. Aside from the old, weak, sick, and disabled, the team was full of slippery veterans. ... more>>

There was also the "Prince" from the family of their biggest client, who accounted for 80% of the firm's revenue—he was the youngest son of the CEO of Xinhe Group and was rumored to hold grudges like no other. Offending him was out of the question.

The only person who seemed somewhat manageable was a small-time connection hire, Xu Shijia.

Despite the internal and external challenges, the "Prince" surprisingly behaved well and treated Lin Shu with respect. Ironically, the most rebellious one turned out to be Xu Shijia.

How could a minor connection hire act so arrogant?

In order to assert her authority, Lin Shu didn’t hold back at all and refused to tolerate Xu Shijia's bad habits. She fiercely put him through a "re-education" process, completely putting him in his place.

Until, at a banquet half a month later, Lin Shu watched as Xu Shijia calmly walked up to the CEO of Xinhe Group and casually called out, "Dad."

What?

She had mistaken the "Prince" and disciplined the wrong person!

Thankfully, fate hadn't completely abandoned her. Lin Shu unexpectedly discovered that this "Prince" was actually her high school classmate.

"Lin Shu? I’ve always remembered you. We were high school classmates."

High school classmates? And he still remembered her? No wonder he had seemed somewhat familiar!

Now that he had brought this up, wasn’t it just giving her a way out of the awkward situation?

It’s fine, he could still be useful! Maybe he wasn’t as vengeful as she had thought!

Lin Shu sincerely said, "In that case, we classmates should take care of each other from now on."

Later, the "Prince" certainly did "take care" of her—so much that Lin Shu felt like she could barely go on living.

It was only then that she realized what he hadn’t finished saying back then:

“When you were the disciplinary committee member, you caught me on purpose over a hundred times, didn’t you?”

“And even after graduation, you kept teasing me. It wouldn’t have been so bad if it stopped there, but that night, after hooking up with me, you just left—what was that supposed to mean?”

“Luckily, I’m not someone who holds grudges too much. Even if you’ve offended me, I’ll only remember it for a few decades or so.”

Lin Shu: …???!!!

Damn it, this guy holds grudges more than she ever imagined!

Much later, Lin Shu and Xu Shijia were in the middle of an argument.

Lin Shu, furious: “Aren’t you supposed to hold grudges? After all I’ve done to offend you, why are you even in a relationship with me?”

Xu Shijia coldly refused: “I won’t break up with you until I’ve fully avenged myself.”

Lin Shu: “When exactly are you going to be done with that?”

Xu Shijia: “I only hold grudges for a few decades, so avenging them should take, what, a few centuries?” <<less

Yan Ming is wealthy, handsome, and has a line of admirers stretching from one end of the hospital to the other.... more>>

Yu Tian wants to share the same household registration book with Yan Ming so badly that she treats him like her VIP client.

When Yan Ming doesn’t like the food in the hospital cafeteria, Yu Tian makes homemade meals and brings them to him every day; when Yan Ming mentions a trendy internet-famous cake, Yu Tian queues up at dawn to buy it for him. Yan Ming remains cold toward her, curious about how far this scheming woman will go—until…

Until Yu Tian’s widowed mother and Yan Ming’s divorced father disastrously fail their middle-aged matchmaking attempt. Yu Tian quickly packs her things and leaves.

The homemade meals stop, the internet-famous cakes vanish, and even the enthusiastic “Brother Yan Ming” becomes just plain old “Hey.”

The first time Cheng Yao met Qian Heng, she couldn’t believe that this tall, handsome man with an air of elegance was the same "cancer of the industry" everyone warned her about.... more>>

His deep, captivating eyes made it even harder to believe.

Cheng Yao was skeptical—how could someone who looked this good be a cancer?

Until reality hit her hard—

She secretly observed Qian Heng’s every move, hoping to learn from him.

Her boss, expressionless and blunt as ever, remarked, “Stop staring. You've been watching me for days. If you have time to admire me, why not spend it reviewing case files?”

"……" Dude, you're overthinking this.

When she asked for a raise—

Qian Heng gave no direct response. But that evening, for the first time, he showed up at a company gathering and personally dedicated a song to her—"When Dreams Are Shattered."

---

[Mini Theater]

Cheng Yao had too much to drink at the annual party. She ran up to the stage, grabbed the microphone, and shouted:

"What’s so great about Qian Heng? Just because he’s a partner?! One day, when I make it big, he’ll have to listen to me! From then on, I’ll be the one calling the shots! I, Cheng Yao, will make sure he knows what it means when I say— Your! Turn! Has! Come!”

That day, no one could forget the terrifying expression on Qian Heng’s face from the audience...

But what they didn’t know was—

The next day, Cheng Yao was cornered against a wall by Qian Heng.

With a blank expression, he said, “Don’t I already listen to you at home? In private, you call the shots. But at work? No. You still have to listen to me.”

Jiang Xiaoyi had lived for over twenty years, and if she had any special talent, it was being unbelievably unlucky. Her life was practically a pile of dog crap.... more>>

The most hopeless part of it all was her boss, Ye Zhen—an absolute nightmare of a man whose face and legs both looked appetizing, but whose personality was pure sadism. Every day, he tormented her without mercy—

"This latte art is slightly off. Dump it and make another one."

"You have one hour to change out of that purple jacket. Why? Because I hate purple."

…

Jiang Xiaoyi swore she had never met a more insufferable, unreasonable, garbage-tier man than Ye Zhen.

And yet, her luck somehow managed to get worse—due to an unforeseen accident, she and Ye Zhen got tangled up together and transmigrated into a parallel universe.

But soon, Jiang Xiaoyi realized that this world wasn’t all that different from their original one—except for one huge change—

Here, she was a young, successful executive.

And Ye Zhen? A broke, low-level employee under her command!

After twenty-some years of suffering, transmigration finally turned her luck around—she had gone from a miserable assistant to her boss’s boss!

Ecstatic!

Everything Ye Zhen had put her through before? Time for some well-deserved justice—

"This latte art is slightly off. Dump it and make another one."

"You have one hour to change out of that black jacket. Why? Because I hate black."

"From today onward, your zodiac sign is Sagittarius. Why? Because Capricorns and I don’t get along."

Jiang Xiaoyi thoroughly, completely, and mercilessly tormented Ye Zhen…

…And then… they transmigrated back.

【Mini Theater】

Staring at Ye Zhen, who was once again in power, Jiang Xiaoyi burst into tears, full of regret. "President Ye, please listen to my explanation! I swear, I’d be honored to be your assistant for life—"

"I’m not looking for an assistant."

Ye Zhen smirked darkly. "I am looking for a wife, though. You seem like a good fit."

No, help! I’m NOT a good fit, I swear I’m NOT! <<less

By a stroke of fate, Bai Tao “travels” five years into the future and discovers she is married to her cold and distant nemesis, Pei Shi! She opens her phone to find the news flooded with stories about their loving relationship—... more>>

“Pei Shi, head of the Pei family, humbly pursued love, finally winning over the beauty after being rejected thirty times.”

“Pei Shi personally planted peach trees just to make his sweet wife smile.”

“Pei Shi’s five-year secret crush and persistent pursuit finally bear fruit.”

…

That night, Bai Tao read all the online reports, moved to tears. Who could have imagined that the high-and-mighty Pei Shi had secretly been crazily in love with her! Considering Pei Shi’s family background, looks, body, and his deep love for her, Bai Tao decides to let bygones be bygones and live well with Pei Shi.

However…

Every time she looks at Pei Shi with deep affection, why does Pei Shi look at her so strangely?

Half a year later, Bai Tao finally learns the truth—

First, she and Pei Shi are in a contract marriage with no real feelings involved.

Second, all those touching stories about Pei Shi’s devotion were fabricated by herself to save face.

Third, the contract marriage is about to expire, and they are supposed to get divorced.

She made a fool of herself and created a huge misunderstanding. Furious, Bai Tao goes to Pei Shi for a divorce, only to be coldly rejected.

“Pei Shi, are you even a man? If you have guts, go divorce me!”

Pei Shi, with a bland tone, replies, “Don’t you know best if I’m a man? As for having guts, of course, I do.” He glances at Bai Tao’s slightly rounded belly, “Isn’t it right there inside you?”

Based on the context, the title "白桃乌龙" can be translated to:

"White Peach's Great Fiasco" or "Bai Tao's Big Blunder"

The title suggests that the protagonist, Bai Tao (白桃), has gotten herself into a messy situation, which is reflected in the synopsis where she discovers that her marriage to Pei Shi is a contractual agreement and that she has been fooled by her own writings. The term "乌龙" (wū lóng) specifically implies a big mistake or a blunder, which fits well with the plot twist in the story. The term "乌龙" also means Oolong (tea). In slang, "tea" is a term used to refer to gossip or inside information. <<less

Not long after Ning Wan was ‘banished’ to a rural neighbourhood by Zhengyuan Law Firm headquarters, a second victim was exiled to join her.... more>>

Vivacious, tall, handsome, a complete gentleman, he exuded the unique aura…

…of a character likely to die off-screen in a historical drama. Were he to become a community lawyer, he would surely end up berated by middle-aged aunties until he cried a river and came to doubt life. He was a big, silly softie, a newbie easy to pick on!

Ning Wan decided that she would beat this poor neglected novice into shape—

“Fu Zheng, isn’t it? Newcomers here must be obedient and discerning.”

“When I dig a pit, you’ll fill it in. When I eat meat, you’ll drink the broth. When I head east, you can’t head west. In short, consider me your God in this remote wilderness beyond the reach of the government.”

Although a little silly, the newbie was handsome, obedient, and tactful. She developed a soft spot for him and decided to impart the ultimate skills she had cultivated for a lifetime: how to shift the blame; how to loaf on the job; how to pay lip service to the boss.

She was very sincere, holding nothing back—

“Truthfully, my unique skills are not without cost. I advise you to like me as soon as possible. Let me analyze the advantages and disadvantages of liking me…”

That big, silly softie, Fu Zheng, succumbed to her coercion and temptation. From that day on, he devoted himself to Ning Wan.

Half a year later, Ning Wan attended the annual meeting at headquarters. There, she was introduced to the new senior partner…

A vivacious, tall, handsome gentleman.

“Hello everyone, I’m Fu Zheng,” he grinned. “I joined this firm to get rid of the bad atmosphere, such as: shifting the blame, loafing on the job, and paying lip service to the boss…”

‘Fu Zheng, you—! Goddammit! This is fraud!’ <<less

Lan Xi made a mistake during her interstellar travel and landed on Earth.... more>>

As the princess of Planet Moyi, she decided to save herself. First, solve the money problem.

So she took out the "Guide to Conquering Earthlings 2003 Edition" that experts from Planet Moyi had carefully compiled years ago -

"Chapter 1 How to Elegantly Make Money":

"Beginner's Guide: Find a high-end building, take a broken bowl, and sit there for a day to elegantly make enough money to spend for one day."

However, after sitting bitterly for a day, Lan Xi didn't make a penny and was driven away by security guards -

"Don't sit here begging, President Xie already criticized us for negligence! Besides, it's not that era anymore, beggars use QR codes now!"

No problem, there's still -

"Intermediate Guide: Find a luxury car, pretend to be hit by it, lie on the ground paralyzed, and you can elegantly make enough money to spend for three months."

However, before Lan Xi could lie down, a driver got out of the car -

"We have dash cams installed! Move away quickly, President Xie is in a hurry. I'll sue you if you try this scam again!"

This tactic also failed. But no worries, there's still -

"Ultimate Guide: Find a rich Earthling, conquer him, marry him, and you can elegantly make enough money to spend for a lifetime."

Very well, might as well go all out and get it done once and for all!

Lan Xi already had a perfect candidate in mind, the boss of the company she begged at on the first day, the owner of the luxury car - Xie Cheng!

Xie Cheng met a strange beautiful woman.

On the first day, she begged at the door of his company;

On the second day, she staged a car accident scam on him;

On the third day, she blocked him in an alley, with a face of great mercy -

"I really like your money, I hope it becomes mine."

"So I've decided to marry you."

She coughed -

"Are you going to voluntarily be conquered by me, or be forcibly conquered by me?"

Qian Wei’s last regret in her life was at the age of 19, when she offended Lu Xun, known as the “Light of the Law School”. She helped her brother Qian Chuan to pry at Lu Xun’s corner and robbed Mo Zixin from him. Who knew that Lu Xun would become her boss one day, and Qian Wei could only work like a cow or horse for atonement. But now God gave her the opportunity to return to the age of 19.

Lu Xun: Today, don’t work overtime. Come to my house.

Qian Wei: ???

Lu Xun smiled indifferently: A good boss should not let employees always have doubts. Tonight, I will show you personally that I don’t have kidney deficiency. <<less
