Cen Lingqiu, a veteran agent of the Book Transmigration Bureau, takes on one last mission before retirement: to stop the female lead from committing su*cide.... more>>

The female lead is beautiful and frail, disabled in both legs. The male lead treats her as a stand-in for the woman he can never forget, locking her away in his mountainside manor and keeping her in total seclusion. Cen Lingqiu is transmigrated into the body of the male lead's older sister—a villainous side character who relentlessly torments the frail female lead.

The System informs her that the female lead has developed severe self-destructive tendencies. To advance the plot, she must prevent the female lead's su*cide and lower her self-destruction value.

Yu Mingjiao is beautiful but extremely world-weary and gloomy. Dutifully, Cen Lingqiu ignores her coldness, taking her to watch sunsets, nursing her back to health, and showering her with all kinds of kindness.

After faking her death to complete the mission, Cen Lingqiu is on the verge of retirement when the System informs her that the female lead has relapsed. Her mission is a failure.

Cen Lingqiu has no choice but to return to Yu Mingjiao's side, only to die again by accident.

When she returns to Yu Mingjiao's side for a third time, the once gloomy and taciturn female lead has completely descended into madness. Mentally unstable and plagued by hallucinations, she develops an intense possessiveness over Cen Lingqiu, whispering in a neurotic voice:

“Sister Lingqiu, if you leave me again, I'll kill myself.”

Cen Lingqiu: “...”

She realizes the plot has gone completely off the rails; the female lead is insane.

---

Yu Mingjiao finds Cen Lingqiu hypocritical and disgusting. She rejects the woman's kindness, wishing only for her death.

Later, when Cen Lingqiu really does die in front of her three times, it's as if Yu Mingjiao dies with her each time.

Throughout her life, Yu Mingjiao has hated this woman most of all, but she has also loved her most of all. She never imagined that one day, she would be the one crying and begging her not to go.

She would die. <<less

Lowly shepherd. Illegitimate daughter. Disgraceful duchess.... more>>

Although she had married her beloved Duke Izar, Freesia lived as though she was trapped at the bottom of a bleak, hapless abyss.

Her family took complete advantage of her, and the people of the duchy hated her for being a stain on the household’s honor.

And then there was her husband, Izar.

Even after she had suffered a miscarriage, he remained cold.

“To be born to parents like us—happiness would forever elude that child.”

At Freesia’s funeral, he had shed not a single tear.

But Freesia wished for one last thing.

Please, cry for me.

Shed even a single tear.

Dearly, I hope that your feelings might change.

Even if it means living for just one more year, that’s fine.

Once that time has passed, then.

Come and cry at my funeral.

*

For the first time, Freesia dared to glare at this man.

The dreadful document in her hand fell to the ground.

“How could you do something so cruel to me, to treat me worse than an animal!”

She was mistaken.

She thought, finally, this man held affection for her. That he trusted her.

That, perhaps… it could even be love.

But it was nothing like that. He deceived her.

“You ruined my life.”

There were only five months left before her demise. <<less

With a low mocking tone, the croquis book fell to the floor. His intense eyes bore into the woman in front of him. Her slender face turned pale like a blank canvas, then flushed red again.

"What do you mean…"

"Ms. Song Seorin, you don't have the money to pay off your debt, right?"

Unlike the frozen Seorin, Taejeong slowly examined her trembling face.

His pale-colored eyes flickered like a candle in the wind. His slightly pouted lips, which could easily be gripped with one hand, and his chin both vibrated incessantly.

“So let’s do this, then.”

Taejeong, who had let out a brief laugh at the absurdity, lifted the bottle again. Even as he poured into the glass, his cynical gaze never left Song Seorin.

“Until the debt’s all paid off, either your legs day and night in front of pig bstards old enough to be your father—”

This time, her neat front teeth bit down on her lower lip. She looked as if, with the slightest touch, she would burst into tears like a balloon pricked by a needle. He found her peach-tinted face oddly pleasing.

A large hand, knuckles thick with bone, picked up the glass. Taejeong pressed the cold glass to his straight lips and parted them slightly. The cruelty he had hidden behind his ridge-like smile surged along the prominent line of his Adam’s apple.

“Or crawl under me.”

He wanted to leave his footprints on the woman as pure as newly fallen snow. <<less

Yeah, it’s all my fault. Don’t worry, I’ll just die once I run out of money.

“Love is like water, taking on countless shapes. You may not be able to touch it, but it will gently surround you.” —The Shape of Water Movie... more>>

[Synopsis 1]

In a shipwreck, Yun Xi sinks to the bottom of the sea with the ship.

In the moment before she loses unconsciousness, a pair of soft lips presses against hers.

When she awakens again, she finds herself submerged in a dim pool, lying next to a woman.

The woman is completely naked, her long, wavy hair cascading like thick seaweed, her features strikingly beautiful with an exotic charm, and she has a pale blue fish tail.

The mermaid sways her soft tail, wrapping around Yun Xi’s body like a serpent, leaning close to sniff her scent and marking her with it.

Yun Xi’s eyes roll up and she faints again.

[Synopsis 2]

After a month of being stranded on a deserted island, kept by the mermaid.

Yun Xi can no longer hold on and decides to go on a hunger strike.

The innocent mermaid, thinking Yun Xi is ill, ventures up the mountain and into the sea, searching for everything edible. She carefully places the food beside Yun Xi, watching her anxiously, nudging her with her nose as if pleading. Eventually, she holds Yun Xi while crying uncontrollably.

Hearing the mermaid’s sobs, Yun Xi’s heart softens, and she ultimately abandons the hunger strike.

She must survive, just like all the other creatures on this island; survival is the top priority.

[Synopsis 3]

After a year of living together on the deserted island with the mermaid.

Yun Xi tries to leave the mermaid and live independently.

The mermaid doesn’t understand why Yun Xi wants to leave her. She believes she is different from humans, thinking that’s why Yun Xi doesn’t love her.

She cries and begins to tear off her own scales, bleeding profusely, wishing to become human like Yun Xi so they can be together forever.

Xu Zhaixing’s idol, Cen Feng, was a new star, slowly rising in the entertainment circle. She firmly believed that everyone would see the brilliance of her idol one day. But she could no longer wait for the day to arrive…... more>>

Cen Feng had committed su*cide at home because of depression. It was only after his death that the injustices he had suffered had been revealed to the public.

It turned out that he was an adopted orphan, and his biological father was actually a mu*derer.

It turned out that the reason he never touched the piano again was that his little finger was intentionally trampled by his teammates.

It turned out that the team was harassing him, and he offended a higher-up company, resulting in resources being divided.

It turned out that the treasure, which she had been so afraid to hold on to her palm in fear of breaking it, had been trampled on, had been beaten black and blue…

Six months later, Xu Zhaixing died in a car accident, only to be reborn as a high school student. She was just a freshman that year.

It was ten years before Cen Feng committed su*cide.

“What do you think would happen if we were to have a child, My Queen?”... more>>

The king asked, looking at his queen after an unexpected question.

“You claimed I was infertile. Is that truly possible?”

“…I’m just saying if it were to happen.”

“Such a thing will probably never happen.”

He chuckled, thinking of the tea he drank every day.

“Do you think I would allow the blood of a mere barbarian to inherit my throne?”

Gazing into the king’s icy eyes, she realized he was no longer the king who once cherished her. The child growing within her would never be embraced. Naturally, her value to him would diminish once she became pregnant.

“…Indeed, it is inconceivable.”

And so, she saw no reason to remain by his side any longer. <<less

A genius schemer, creating an emperor!... more>>

“Only when your brother is happy can you be happy.”

She committed all kinds of evil deeds to make him Emperor. However, Artezia’s devotion was repaid with betrayal. It was the Grand Duke Cedric, a righteous enemy, that gave her a hand of salvation at the threshold of death.

“Devise a plan.”
“…”
“I can’t think of anyone but you who can reverse this situation. Marquess Rosan.”
“…”
“Lend me your strength.”

There is no plan that can reverse the already declining power and save the fallen empire. However, there is a method. To turn back time before everything went wrong.

With tears of blood she sacrificed her body to an ancient magic. This time, she will not fall.

Artezia, who returned to the age of 18 before death, resolved to become a villainess for the Grand Duke Cedric.

Xia Mian transformed into a troubled sixteen-year-old girl, but there was an extra little dumpling by her side.

I thought my life might improve when I was later transferred to the South Korean Esper Center, commonly known as the 'K Esper Center.' But even there, I wasn't treated as a human. I was nothing more than a tr*sh can, collecting all the negativity. My human dignity crumbled. Both physically and emotionally, I was a receptacle for their waste.

As I began to forget who I was, my name, age, and even whether I was human, I made a choice for myself for the first time. I felt myself sinking as the blood drained from my body.

Just before closing my eyes for the last time, through the cracked door, I caught the horrified gazes of those watching.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back in the evaluation room where I was previously labeled a D-class guide. But this time, the result was different. I wasn’t a D-class, but an immeasurable class capable of ruling over them.

It would have been great if the esper I was supposed to guide was the person who saved me… But he too was an esper from the K Esper Center.

Although Nabin tried to hide it, deep down he hoped he might encounter him—S-class Special Esper, Telekinetic Lee Hayan.

That was the name Mr. Kim had used to refer to the one who had saved his life. With white hair and a matching name, he was as pure as untouched, freshly fallen snow. The kindness he showed Nabin was equally pristine. <<less

Jiang Heng lived a carefree life until he was eighteen, when he was suddenly informed that he was the fake young master in a switched-at-birth scenario. The pampered young master of the Jiang family instantly became an orphan with no one to rely on. Before he could recover from this news, an out-of-control truck overturned, crushing him on the spot and ending his life.... more>>

When he woke up again, he found that he had not only transmigrated to four years later, but had also become a stray cat.

A newly weaned, little over a month old, seriously ill kitten, one that could kick the bucket at any moment.

Jiang Heng held up his furry paw, bewildered in the wind, "..."

How can this meow live?

With no survival experience, after getting himself covered in dust and dirt, Jiang Heng, having learned his lesson through painful experience, decided to find a sucker – a human to scam.

So he snuck into the university he had applied to before his death.

He saw Lu Yichuan in the crowd, his childhood friend he grew up with.

The dirty little kitten darted out from the bushes, bumping into Lu Yichuan's shoes, then delicately fell to the ground, his intention to scam very obvious.

Lu Yichuan was about to leave, but when he saw the kitten's bright, star-like eyes, he paused, slowly squatted down, extended a fingertip and poked the kitten's forehead, his voice as gentle as always, "Do you want to come with me?"

"Meow~"

Top-tier meal ticket, activated!

****

Lu Yichuan, a second-year graduate student in the Philosophy Department of A University, is the university's recognized male god, with a reputation so good it's breathtaking.

He is gentle and reasonable, treating everyone with good temper, his words and actions impeccable.

Over the years, countless men and women have confessed their love to him, and he hasn't agreed to any of them.

Someone was curious about what kind of person he likes.

The man looked up at the sky, the sun dazzlingly painful to the eyes.

He smiled and said, "Someone like the sun, I guess."

It's just a pity that his sun sank to the bottom of the sea in his twentieth year.

Since then,

The world could no longer be illuminated by a single ray of light.

****

Jiang Heng felt that becoming Lu Yichuan's cat was the most correct decision he had ever made in his life.

The man never restricted his freedom, cat food was plentiful, canned food was readily available, and he could wander outside for days and nights without being noticed.

Until Lu Yichuan was suddenly hospitalized. When he woke up, he tied a red string around his neck, and everything changed.

The perpetually open window was shut tight, and the man, who often stayed out all night, now spent almost twenty-four hours a day in the dormitory.

If he felt stuffy, the man would take him for a walk. If he felt the dormitory was small, the man would take him to a large villa...

As long as he left Lu Yichuan's sight for more than ten minutes, the man could always pinpoint his location.

He held his favorite canned food in his hand, his eyes holding an unreadable darkness, "Rongrong, it's time to go home."

Jiang Heng: QAQ

He didn't want to go back either, but he had canned food! <<less

7 years of unrequited love and another 7 years of relationship.... more>>

Kyeoul believed that the love completed over a long time with Ithae would continue forever and beyond.

But.

“Looks like he’s out with that person again today.”

There was a reason why Ithae was diagnosed with fatigue syndrome.

Meetings with another person, continuing since last spring.

Ithae no longer smiled when looking at Kyeoul, and Kyeoul simply resigned himself to looking at such an Ithae.

“If it’s not fate, we need to break up.”

For both Ithae’s sake and his own. Holding onto each other was wrong.

Rather, we needed to let go and at least preserve our memories.

That brilliant youth once upon a time.

So that the past, which burned with a bright fire, would no longer become pitiful.

Kwon Ithae (32).

Lived a monotonous life. Until meeting Kyeoul. After meeting Kyeoul, his monotonous world began to move. With trembling excitement and beauty. This thrilling feeling that love gives cannot last forever.

Choi Kyeoul (32).

Even 7 years of relationship turned out to be useless. Constant communication and meetings with a person who is not me. Cold attitude, different from before. There were no more reasons to desperately cling to this relationship. I just needed to let go, but somehow it turned out to be so difficult. With age, he absolutely couldn’t stand fatigue.

When to read: When you want to see the outcome of love irretrievably destroyed by fatigue.

Gu Hua was raised by her concubine-born mother since childhood, all for the sake of helping her legitimate sister secure favor.... more>>

Her legitimate sister and brother-in-law were deeply in love—when they were done toying with her, she was left to die.

Only on the brink of death did she learn: she was actually the true-born daughter.

Reborn on the night she was to be gifted to her brother-in-law, the duke returned victorious from war.

He heard that his son’s little sister-in-law had beautiful calligraphy and invited her to the study to assist with ink.

The entire household was shocked—Duke Yong, who had never had a woman in his life and wouldn’t even let a female mosquito near him,

from that day on spent every day and night studying in the study with tireless diligence.

No one knew that in the dead of night, when all was quiet, the duke would clutch her waist and only release her at the third watch of the night.

Duke Yong had spent half his life on the battlefield and had stayed at home for less than a month in twenty years—yet now, he didn’t take a single step outside for over a month.

One morning, the legitimate sister came to pay her respects to the duke, only to see the concubine-born sister emerge from the study,

eyes sultry, hair tousled—this was a room no one was usually allowed to enter.

Soon after, Duke Yong grandly held a wedding banquet. Though it was for taking a concubine, the event was as lavish as marrying a wife of equal status.

A woman clad in splendid, noble red robes smiled as she placed red envelopes in the hands of the kneeling stepson and stepdaughter-in-law.

She said gently, “Dear sister, good children—this is a little red packet from your concubine-mother.”

She raised her banner, reclaimed her rightful identity, and made the cheating couple fall from grace and die miserable deaths.

Three months later, Duke Yong died in battle, and all his servants were granted freedom.

Gu Hua had calculated that if she got pregnant before his death, she’d inherit a large sum and finally gain her freedom.

From then on, the sky would be the limit.

Who would have thought that after giving birth to a son, the duke only grew more vigorous and full of life? <<less

After transmigrating, I found myself as Go Yeonwoo, a side villain who mu*dered the protagonist, Woo Jiyoo, only to be brutally killed by a group of S-Class Espers.... more>>

To make matters worse, the moment I transmigrated was right after killing Woo Jiyoo.

But unlike the original story, Go Yeonwoo awakens as an S-Class Guide.

The Espers, upon sensing Go Yeonwoo’s guiding energy, start acting differently from the original.

“This bastard, let’s take him and use him as our personal sl*t. Just killing him would be too easy a punishment.”

“We’ll make him regret killing Woo Jiyoo. I’ll have him begging for death by the end.”

The S-Class Espers fake Go Yeonwoo’s death and imprison him in a secret place, forcing him to guide them.

However, with his already twisted tastes, Go Yeonwoo finds the Espers’ obsessive behavior suffocatingly delightful.

He even pretends to resist, encouraging them to treat him even more recklessly.

But then…

“Hey, are you seriously stopping after eating just this much? Are you planning to starve yourself to death?”

“Get lost, Kang Taewon. Because of you, my sl*t can’t eat properly. I’ll feed him myself. Open wide, Yeonwoo.”

“Yeonwoo, is there something you want to say to me? You were jealous enough to kill Jiyoo over it, weren’t you? If you tell me now, I’ll listen. Go ahead.”

“You’re letting me hold you up? Does that mean you’re giving me permission now?” <<less
