Shortly after the Duke’s daughter Melissa turned ten, her cousin Amelia, who was the same age and had lost her parents, was taken in by the Duke’s family.

They were told to live apart until they could control their magic. Melissa’s father said to her, “Considering Amelia’s grief from losing her parents, could you go move to the estate?”

Melissa put in a tremendous effort to master perfect magic control, but despite her efforts, she was never called back to live back home with her family in the capital until she turned sixteen, when she was obligated to enroll in the magic academy for those with magical powers.

This is the story of Melissa, who realizes that instead of trying to win the attention of those who don’t see her, she should cherish the people who value her, and live true to herself. <<less

So, is there someone who has feelings of love for me?... more>>

People confess their feelings to Raymond, but the Demon Lord, who knows nothing about love, finds their emotions confusing. Will Raymond ever understand them? Where will his choice lead him?

“I see.”

Hmm, Ardian let out a long sigh, then looked up at the sky. As the murmurs of humans watching falling stars felt like a giant wall, Ardian muttered almost as if passing by.

“I hope you don’t do that kind of thing with someone else.”

That kind of thing?

“What do you mean by that?”

When I asked back out of pure curiosity, Ardian, who had been looking down at me, tilted his head. The breath gently breaking over my face was so close. By the time that thought crossed my mind, it was already too late. I couldn’t stop the unfamiliar, soft flesh from gently brushing against the side of my lips before it quickly pulled away.

“Something like this.”

Before I knew it, I had taken a step back. The sudden act was so shocking that I couldn’t make sense of it. The guy, without a care, narrowed his eyes and smiled as usual. <<less

Her best friend Liu Sijia’s birthday party was grandly organized and held in a brightly lit villa. The young lady clasped her hands together, her radiant cheeks slightly flushed. “I hope he comes.”... more>>

All the surrounding classmates knew who she was talking about, and responded with a series of ‘oh’s. Whether or not he would come depended entirely on his mood.

Midway through the party, Ban Sheng walked in carrying a cake, extinguished his cigarette, and said, “Happy birthday.”

The young lady was overjoyed and ordered the candles to be relit so she could make another wish.

Afterward, everyone was mingling and having fun, while Lin Weixia went to the kitchen alone to help by grabbing some fruit. When she turned around, she nearly bumped into someone’s chest and instinctively stepped back.

Ban Sheng had one hand in his pocket as he slowly approached, his shadow falling over her. When he saw the cream on the tip of her nose, his gaze shifted slightly, and he looked at her.

“What are you so flustered about?”

During a grand school carnival, five people escaped to the seaside to play a card-drawing game. Lin Weixia drew the card that gave her the chance to ask Ban Sheng a question.

“What do you want to become?”

“A shark.”

He paused for a moment, then asked, “What about you?”

“A fish tank.”

“Erica, make a fixed pair with me. Make a pair with me, just with me.”

“Why do you want to do that with me?”

“Because it pisses me off.”

“…?”

“Just the thought of you hanging out with some other mediocre guy instead of me gets on my nerves and keeps me awake.”

Same age. S-class mercenaries. Their personalities were equally disastrous, which seemed to create an underlying sense of camaraderie.

They seemed to have become close in the blink of an eye.

“Erica, there’s something I really want, and if I can’t have it, I might go crazy. If someone else takes it from me, it’ll be war, seriously.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but why are you staring at me like that? Did I take something from you?”

“Every time you do that, I feel like crying.”

As time passed, Erica couldn’t help but be taken aback.

“W-why are you acting like this?”

“I told you, Erica.”

Gu Jia Nian failed the college entrance exam and went to her grandmother’s house in the countryside for summer vacation.... more>>

She accidentally entered a villa covered in creeping plants and inhabited by a recluse known by the villagers as someone who never left their house and avoided the light.

Children even secretly called him a vampire behind his back.

As the vacation came to an end, she did two things: discussing with her parents about retaking the exam and confessing her feelings to him.

One succeeded, the other failed.

Two years later, Gu Jia Nian studied diligently in the competitive Chinese literature program at a prestigious university.

In a literature appreciation class, the professor assigned a reading list, with nearly half of it coming from a rising star novelist—who had won major literary awards with a full-length novel and a series of medium-length novels.

Gu Jia Nian sat in the library at 2 a.m., opening the preface of that full-length novel.

It began:

“Rough start, with over a dozen interruptions due to the erosion of romantic fantasies by harsh reality. Until one day, she knocked on my door, cleared the messy Chinese hawthorn outside, and handed me a box of pastries. From then on, light poured in.”

Guide for newcomers:

The male lead falls for the female lead after she comes of age.

They get together after she retakes the exam.

Six-year age gap, Student-Teacher Relationship (SC).

Told from the perspective of Chi Yan.

After deleting the twelfth draft’s beginning, someone with no sense of timing suddenly knocked on his door.

He opened it with a frown and found a shy high school girl standing outside, with big eyes, fair skin, and a box of cookies in her hands.

Due to family obligations, he reluctantly put an end to his reclusive life and started taking care of this girl who had been crushed by the pressure of the exam.

He let her read at home.

Gave her a key.

Accompanied her to doctor appointments.

Accompanied her on shopping trips.

Comforted her, encouraged her, praised her…

The girl was polite and sensible, but she never called him “brother.”

Finally, as her summer vacation came to an end and she was about to start retaking the exam, she awkwardly confessed her feelings to him.

“…”

Chi Yan glanced at her. “Let’s talk about this after you finish your exam.”

After the second year’s exam ended, Chi Yan sent her a text on WeChat, calculating the time the results would be released.

“How did it go?”

A long while later, she replied, “Well, I did great.”

Followed by another message: “Thank you, Brother Chi Yan.”

Chi Yan, brother.

“…”

Damn, it’s easier to be deceived as you grow older. <<less

But that child is barely ten, isn’t she?

“It is an undeniable fact that I’m a political enemy that threatens the throne.”

Jesters are supposed to protect the innocence of children, always.

“I swear to God, the child’s existence will surely be erased.”

Lu Ze x Gu Yan... more>>

Lu Ze never emerged gently from that long night. He was a chilling silhouette, standing alone in a boundless wasteland. When did those monotonous, flavorless days begin to change?

Probably at seventeen, when a guy named Gu Yan suddenly appeared and, without a word, bit his shoulder, leaving a permanent mark. Since then...

Little Gu, who had always been ahead for the first seventeen years of his life, became the perpetual second-place after transferring schools. The top student not only crushed him academically, but was also taller than him, and, most importantly, was a master of acting cool. He skipped classes, the teachers didn't bother with him, and the classmates didn't dare to ask him anything.

So Little Gu's attention was completely fixated on this person, unable to look away.

There will always be someone who firmly accompanies you to the end of time, saying goodbye to the loneliness of this world again and again.

My younger sister, who can’t even retrieve a stolen dress, grows up to become a villainess who pours wine on the female lead’s dress.

“Just trust your older sister. I’ll take care of everything. (You idiots.)”
