The Zhan family was wealthy and noble. Zhan Wuyou was the only child of the Zhan family. He could live a smooth life, but his father made mistakes that every s*umbag would make. He hooked up with a terrible xiao san (mistress).... more>>

Xiao san came from a 'special area'. In order to be with Zhan's father, she kidnapped Zhan Wuyou and transformed her and Zhan's father's children into Zhan Wuyou's appearance so he could become the only young master of the Zhan family.

His mother was sent to a mental hospital by the two of them and he was thrown into a special department and became a dog without fangs in the Zhan family.

Because the fake young master offended the big guy, he was driven to replace the fake young master to make amends, and finally he fell in love with the big guy.

He didn't want his lover to die tragically because of him. His life was completely ruined by the mother and son. Once reborn, he returned to his lover's bed. At this time his lover was still young and powerful, the eyes that looking at him were harsh, "Dare to climb my bed, who gives you the courage! Get off!"

Zhan Wuyou: "..." There was a kind of feeling don't ask me to go on! <<less

Makoto Takatsuki is a normal high school student and a hardcore RPG player.... more>>

However, “normal” goes out the window when his whole class is involved in a bus crash and whisked away to another world! Powerful gods rule this strange new land of magic and monsters, and every newcomer is blessed with strong stats and unique skills.

Well, not quite. Makoto’s stats turn out to be pathetic, and his skills are super weak compared to his classmates’…he’s even stuck as an apprentice mage. Worse still, he’s given only ten years to live!

Luckily, Makoto soon meets a minor goddess named Noah, who appears in Makoto’s dreams and asks him to become her first believer. With the help of Noah’s blessings and a divine weapon, Makoto seeks to become strong enough to rescue his goddess from the dungeon where she’s been trapped.

By training hard and using his weak skills in unorthodox ways, Makoto proves that, even when playing on hardcore difficulty, an RPG player always makes it to the end! <<less

“I’ll pay a high price,” said Seokju, the boss of the Taeho faction, to the crippled servant Ajin, marking the beginning of their relationship born out of a misunderstanding one night. “Like you have a leg disease. I have insomnia. Shall we help each other as patients?”... more>>

Using Seokju’s insomnia as an excuse, Ajin fell asleep in his embrace, becoming accustomed to his body temperature. “I want to work at your place until I die.” “Then just stay here.

After the heiress Mu Wan suddenly died from overworking, she thought it thorough and came to terms with her situation—let’s fully enjoy her second chance at life by indulging in food, drink, and leisure. To hell with work, scheming, and power struggles!... more>>

Then, because of her new carefree attitude, excessive indulgence, and idleness, her engagement was broken off.

Mu Wan: …

Then, out of the blue, an imperial edict came, arranging her marriage to the powerful but intimidating Marquis of Zhenbei—clearly intended as an insult to him.

Mu Wan: ???

Her reborn half-sister arrived, gloating: “So what if he’s tall, elegant, and handsome? Marquis Zhenbei is cold towards women, ruthless, and bloodthirsty. He killed the Empress Dowager and the puppet emperor to put his nephew’s on the throne, but he died on the battlefield later. Even if you don’t die, you’ll soon be widowed, my dear eldest sister.”

What Mu Wan heard amidst the unintelligent noises: Marquis of Zhenbei, put his nephew on the throne, and then died…

So, in a few years, she would inherit both an emperor nephew and all the Marquis’ wealth?

What a stroke of luck! She’s in!

***

Zhenbei Marquis Manor indeed needed a figurehead mistress, so Xie Heng made a strategical decision to marry the easily controlled daughter of a lowly merchant family. It was nothing more than a political move; he treated her as a convenient pet, like a house cat.

But to his surprise, this delicate little cat wasn’t one to be bullied. He couldn’t hit her, nor could he outsmart her in arguments.

Xie Heng began to suspect that she was out to annoy him to death.

One day, Mu Wan sighed: “The Chi Ling Tribe may be barbaric, but their gemstones are truly beautiful.”

Xie Heng, with a cold voice: “So you really wish for my death, don’t you?”

Mu Wan: ???

Later, Xie Heng led his troops to conquer the Chi Ling tribe and threw their royal family’s treasures at Mu Wan, sneering: “Sorry to disappoint you, but this Marquis will live a long life.”

Mu Wan: ???

That same day, Xie Heng lay in bed, flushed and gritting his teeth: “This Marquis will die at your hands sooner or later!”

Mu Wan: …

It was just a simple wound stitching. There’s no need to make it sound so suggestive—her medical skills are great, okay?

Everyone said Marquis Zhenbei Xie Heng was ruthless and cold, and the people he despised the most were those cowards who indulged in pleasures. Yet, when death loomed over him, his first thought was: If he died, who would bring home the tribute fruits for that house cat? Would she be bullied? Who would take good care of her?

He realized then that he must survive, so he could protect her, ensuring she would live a long life, filled with prosperity.

Chen Wan was very adept at dealing with people. Relying on his thoughtfulness and meticulousness to be reliable, he mixed with the group of princelings. As long as he was there, even the humidity of the air would feel just right.... more>>

He didn’t go through all this trouble in hopes that Zhao Shengge would like him. Chen Wan never left his name nor sought credit, keeping to the shadows. Zhao Shengge did not even have to know that he existed; glimpsing him from afar just once or twice was enough.

His friend, impatient at his low expectations, asked, “What are you playing at?”

“I’m not playing at anything,” Chen Wan smiled, holding on to his unbreakable oath of secret devotion. “I just hope that my presence would make him a little happier and more comfortable.”

Zhao Shengge was the favored child of the heavens, holding a high position and wielding immense power. Chen Wan was very self aware. He wouldn’t hold any hopes about something that was simply impossible, believing that his careful distance was maintained flawlessly.

When their paths crossed at the auction, Chen Wan would blend into the crowd, offering only the same greetings as strangers;

When he came across Zhao Shengge’s belongings, he would ask his friend to pass them on;

When someone tried using him to get close to Zhao Shengge through him, he’d apologize and say that they don’t actually know each other……

Or at least that’s what he believed.

Until that moment on the cruise ship, when the other person stared at him quietly, cigarette between his lips as he slowly said: “Chen Wan, I didn’t bring a lighter.”

On the surface, it’s the shou chasing the gong, but it’s actually the gong calmly orchestrating the chase, maneuvering the shou towards him.

Ming Qiao was a pitiful little boy in the world of cultivation. Born weak and sickly, he didn’t even have a mother.... more>>

His father left to search for medicine to cure him. Little Ming Qiao sat on the doorstep, chewing on a steamed bun, waiting for his father. He waited and waited. But instead of his father, he witnessed a great battle between the Demon Lord and the Celestial Sect.

The Demon Lord was strong. He fought fiercely for three days before self-immolating in an explosion. The cultivation world faced destruction. With a thud, little Ming Qiao collapsed and perished with it.

_______________

When he opened his eyes again, Ming Qiao found himself a hundred years in the past. At this time, the Demon Lord was still a child, and both his parents were young.

Clutching the corn bun that had traveled back in time with him, Ming Qiao set two goals for himself:

1. Find the young Demon Lord, keep an eye on him, and prevent him from destroying the world.

2.Find his mother and prevent his mother from dying.

_______________

The young Demon Lord was easy to find. Ming Qiao stared at the boy, who was slightly taller but looked even more miserable than he did. He fed the corn bun to the young Demon Lord, persuading him with patience.

“From now on, I’ll take care of you, okay? You must not turn to bad person.”

The young Demon Lord: “?”

_______________

The young Demon Lord ate a piece of the corn bun and picked up that small tagalong. The tagalong kept saying he would take care of him, but the little one needed to be carried everywhere. If he wasn’t carried, he would cough up blood, very scary!

As he was carried around, Ming Qiao clung to the young Demon Lord’s neck. He made a promise and tried to brainwash him.

“Big brother, when I grow up, I’ll carry you too.”

_______________

Ming Qiao kept a close watch on the young Demon Lord. After much effort, he finally learnt his parents’ names. But Ming Qiao was confused—

Why did his mother’s name sound the same as that of the Immortal General, the cold and unattainable flower of the Immortal Sect? And why did his father’s name match that of the notorious Demon Lord at the time?

Ming Qiao: “QAQ Help, am I really your child?”

And one more thing…

Would his parents even recognize their future-born child?

Cheng Zhanxi ran away from her wedding.... more>>

On her first day in Sicheng, she fell in love at first sight with a woman. Her studio was soon filled with paintings of her.

Their second encounter was at a bar, where the woman took the initiative to invite her to spend the night together.

Cheng Zhanxi: “Miss, I’m a decent person.”

Yu Qingtang turned and walked away without a word.

Cheng Zhanxi: “…Wait, please!”

After a night of passion, Yu Qingtang vanished without a trace.

Upon learning that the woman was a high school math teacher at Sicheng No. 1 High School, Cheng Zhanxi joined the school as a physical education teacher.

“Ms. Yu, would you like to watch a movie with me tonight?”

“Too busy.”

“Then should I give my class tomorrow to the English teacher?”

“What time tonight?”

…

Later, Cheng Zhanxi went to apologize to her fiancée, whom she had never met before. Arriving at the agreed-upon restaurant, she found her girlfriend, Yu Qingtang—the same woman she had parted with at her doorstep that morning—sitting across the table.

Yu Qingtang’s gaze was playful, almost teasing.

“Ms. Cheng, what a coincidence.”

“…”

The girlfriend I worked so hard to chase turned out to be the fiancée I ran away from.

Everyone said the Demon Lord had a green face and fangs, ate raw human flesh, and enjoyed transforming into beautiful women to bewilder mortals, then gouging out their hearts when they were off guard.... more>>

People also said the Senior Sister of the Chongxiang Sword Sect, Fu Lingyi, was gentle and kind, treated others with courtesy, and greatly cared for her fellow disciple sisters. Merely passing by her felt like basking in the gentle warmth of a spring breeze.

The two were like fire and water, completely opposite, absolute sworn enemies. To the death.

Until that day, the Demon LordYue Jin annihilated the entire Xuanyu Sect, sparking widespread outrage. Righteous path sects united to suppress the Demonic Path.

The Demonic Path was completely wiped out, and the Demon Lord vanished without a trace. However, in the forest not far from the Demonic Path's main stronghold, Fu Lingyi found Yue Jin, who hadn't managed to hide.

Yue Jin, whose cultivation base was temporarily crippled after suffering qi deviation, bit the bullet and acted: "Who are you? Where am I?"

Fu Lingyi wore a gentle smile: "Is that so? You don't remember me?"

"I'm your dao companion, my dear. Come back with me to complete our dao companion ceremony."

Yue Jin was speechless.

'My sworn enemy's words are too shocking! How do I even respond?'

As the largest sect, the Chongxiang Sword Sect's Sect Leader was in prolonged secluded cultivation. The entire sect was managed solely by Senior Sister Fu Lingyi.

The Demon Lord's favorite pastime was provoking the Disciplinary Hall Sword Sect every few days. Relying on her slightly superior cultivation techniques, Yue Jin always pushed Fu Lingyi back, forcing her to lose face completely in front of all the disciples before decisively ending the fight and leaving. She relished this.

That day, the disciples of the Disciplinary Hall Sword Sect watched Senior Sister leave to join the encirclement and suppression of the Demon Lord. She returned the same day, unexpectedly bringing back someone with amnesia.

That person looked exactly like the Demon Lord, yet the Senior Sister announced she would form a dao companion bond with this woman.

First, she subjected the woman to various humiliations, making her lie on cold ice during a heavy snow night. Then, she pretended to forget about her, not even providing food.

Seeing this, everyone gradually understood. They realized she was treating the woman as a substitute for the Demon Lord, venting her past grievances.

But later, the relationship subtly changed.

The Senior Sister began smilingly feeding the woman and dressing her. She even went so far as to warm her bed.

The woman also changed from her initial bewildered fury to becoming increasingly embarrassed and blushing, no longer daring to face the Senior Sister.

Unexpectedly, one day, she simply vanished.

The Senior Sister's eyes turned red; she searched everywhere like a madwoman, without finding a single trace.

Yet, a year later, she heard news of the Demon Lord reappearing. <<less

Everyone said Rong Zhen’s partner, Jiang Jili, was beautiful, talented, and virtuous, adored by a prominent figure.... more>>

However, only Jiang Jili knew the truth—he was nothing more than a plaything to Rong Zhen, to be used when Rong Zhen was in a good mood. Despite being married for three years, Jiang Jili had never stepped foot into the master bedroom. He wasn’t worthy. Even when they were intimate, it was confined to his room, with Rong Zhen looming over him like an emperor indulging in a fleeting whim.

In Rong’s household, Jiang’s status didn’t even surpass that of the fierce, unruly Tibetan mastiff. Everyone knew Jiang was terrified of the dog, yet no one intervened. Rong Zhen coldly watched on multiple occasions as the vicious dog pounced on Jiang, leaving him trembling with fear, so much so that he was bedridden with a fever for a week.

At a high-society gathering in Huai City, Jiang drank something tainted and collapsed in a hotel room, gasping for breath. Meanwhile, Rong Zhen, perfectly composed in his suit, toyed with his phone, recording the scene.

Rong Zhen had always considered Jiang a joke.

Later, when Rong Zhen’s grandmother demanded a grandchild, Jiang was discarded like tr*sh. Qin Family’s elegant heiress would surely provide the perfect heir for the Rong family.

Jiang laid the divorce papers before Rong Zhen.

Rong Zhen, leisurely but menacingly, warned him: “If you dare leave this house without my permission, you’ll regret it.”

Jiang left cleanly, without looking back.

By the time Rong Zhen realized what had happened, Jiang Jili had disappeared.

After Jiang disappeared, Rong Zhen became a mad dog.

Suspicious and brooding, his very presence felt like walking through a minefield. Everyone knew that the biggest taboo was mentioning Jiang Jili’s name. Rong Zhen missed Jiang Jili so desperately it nearly drove him insane.

Every night, Rong Zhen slept in Jiang Jili’s room, desperately trying to find any trace of him. But there was nothing.

As if to punish him, the only thing he had left of Jiang Jili was that video—

In it, the young man’s eyes were red, his fingers trembling as he clutched Rong Zhen’s pants, nearly choking on his words: “Help me…”

From the phone’s speaker, Rong Zhen heard his own cold voice:

“Jiang Jili, do you even deserve it?”

A child star named Jiang Chong quickly rose to fame, gaining immense popularity. Despite his young age, Jiang Chong carried himself with a maturity beyond his years. Observant individuals couldn’t help but notice a striking resemblance between the boy and that infamous figure in the Rong family.

Brave reporters sometimes asked, “Does Chong Chong take after his father or his mother?”

Jiang Chong: “My father, my father’s surname is Jiang.”

One day, a picture of Jiang Chong’s father was leaked—a delicate, handsome youth with soft features.

Many people were disappointed, but Rong Zhen went mad.

Cui Xisheng had chased Meng Jiangtian for three years, sharing the most intimate moments for just as long. He thought they had been in a relationship for three years.... more>>

But on the day Meng Jiangtian’s white moonlight ex-girlfriend returned from abroad, he left without hesitation. That was when Cui Xisheng realized he had only ever been a “regular friend” whom Meng Jiangtian called upon at will.

Heartbroken, Cui Xisheng ate three large bowls of food in one go, only to end up vomiting so badly that he was rushed to the hospital.

When the doctor congratulated him on being one month pregnant, Cui Xisheng nearly got into a fight with them. After all, he was a man—a pure-blooded man.

Yet, as someone who studied traditional Chinese medicine, Cui Xisheng ran multiple self-checks, all of which confirmed the impossible: he was indeed pregnant.

There was only one possible father—Meng Jiangtian. But Cui Xisheng chose not to tell him. Who needed whom, anyway?

That belief was shattered a month later when the apocalypse suddenly struck. As an ordinary person without awakened abilities, survival became nearly impossible for Cui Xisheng.

When he was on the verge of being bitten by a zombie, he instinctively shielded his two-month-old belly.

But the expected pain never came. When Cui Xisheng opened his eyes, he found himself staring at Meng Jiangtian’s cold, indifferent face once again.

At that moment, he wasn’t sure whether to feel relieved or devastated. <<less
