Bai Yuan is a magical little parrot that had just hatched out of his shell. With pristine peach-colored feathers, heaven-defying looks, and beautiful singing, he was the most popular pink glutinous rice ball in the Jiujiu community. One day, he was accidentally injured by a bear child, but fortunately, a pair of kind husbands rescued him and took him in. Since then, he has had two human dads. The little dad was a gentle and elegant doctor and the big dad was a handsome and rich boss. In return, he decided to be the real child of this family.

At the age of ten, Jiang Qi had black hair, shallow pupils, and a pale, delicate appearance. He often got injured, with blood flowing from his head. He was the son of a 'notorious' mu*derer in Chen Kong Alley, and people cursed him, saying that he had vile blood running in his veins. Except for Zhi Qi, no one paid him any attention.... more>>

Zhi Qi often cried while bandaging his wounds, her voice soft as she asked, "Why do you always get hurt? Does it hurt a lot?"

Jiang Qi smiled, the cold and rebellious boy appearing particularly obedient in front of her: "If you comfort me, it won't hurt anymore."

By the time he reached high school, he had become the most famous madman, cold and ruthless in all Lin Lan. Zhi Qi remembered Jiang Qi once saying that most of his life was lived like a dog. He would rather have everyone fear him than let anyone bully him.

Even though everyone feared him, Zhi Qi was not afraid.

Unfortunate people spend their entire lives healing from childhood, and Zhi Qi wanted to heal Jiang Qi with her own efforts. She would make a promise to him on the rooftop of the school, where he brought her to the top: "Jiang Qi, take care. When I reach the legal age, I can marry you."

The boy's response was a faint smile, his gaze clear and clean like the stars in the sky, filled with rare yearning for the future.

Zhi Qi didn't know that a simple promise saved Jiang Qi's life, pulling him out of hell.

Unfortunately, 'redemption' has an expiration date. When the clock strikes twelve for Cinderella, he remains the sick dog with nothing.

A crazy boy, and all the sweet names in his obscure life are called 'Zhi Qi'. <<less

"If possible. What kind of man exactly are you looking for?"

"A man who shines brightly but isn't clingy."

Da-hee gave a neat smile. The man tilted his head as if asking for more explanation. At the same time, his soft hair gently fell forward. He was truly a dazzling man.

"A man who doesn't believe in love, and even if he did, wouldn't easily succumb to it. Is there anyone like that around?"

"Yes."

At the man's words, Da Hee's eyes narrowed with interest. The man before her perfectly matched the physical criteria she desired. It was then that she thought, if such a man is introducing someone, they must be trustworthy.

"Me."

The man smiled sensually.

Chi Qiong was the only surviving ancient divine phoenix in the heavens and earth, having slumbered for billions of years before being awakened by a mediocre spirit contract master named Yun Xiguang in modern times.... more>>

He discovered that the wings that once overshadowed the heavens had turned into tender little wings, and his once majestic figure that towered over ancient beasts had become a round, chubby, fluffy body that could be held in the palm of one’s hand—a mere fledgling.

Chi Qiong gazed sternly at the spirit contract master Yun Xiguang with his tiny, bean-like eyes:

"Human, become my spirit-servant; lend me thy aid to restore mine ancient power, and I shall grant thee ten thousand years of glory."

However, when he opened his mouth, all that came out was: "Chirp, chirp, chirp!"

In order to show this ignorant human his might, Chi Qiong bestowed upon him a single phoenix feather.

Yun Xiguang picked up the downy feather that had fallen to the ground and sighed: "Sigh, the only spirit beast willing to respond to me is a little chick that sheds feathers. What else can I do? I’ll just have to dote on it."

Jun Qingyu pursues a novel with a protagonist that strives on his own, from an ordinary person to a high position as a marshal. He suffered from an accident on the battlefield that only a mermaid can heal, but because the injury caused the protagonist to have a violent temperament, the mermaids refused to treat him.... more>>

The protagonist’s family seized the opportunity to steal his token to start an interstellar war. The close friend of the protagonist kicked him when he was down. For a period of time, the protagonist became a target of public criticism. He was simply a model example of an unfortunate person with good looks and strong capability.

Initially, the protagonist should have risen at this time and started a series of face-slapping in line but the author ran off in the end, leaving the novel incomplete and directly sentenced the protagonist to death.

Jun Qingyu got so hung up over it that he dreamt of the protagonist of this book and after he woke up, he became a mermaid in that novel.

Fu Yuanchuan didn’t know how many times he had stood by the mermaid pond. The little newborn mermaids in the pond were no more than the size of his palm.

The mermaids rejected coming into contact with him very much. He looked at the pod of mermaids, who were originally close to the shore, quickly fleeing without any accident when he approached.

The sound of taunts and jeers fell incessantly in his ear.

‘How can someone like him still dare to buy a mermaid?’

‘If I were him, I would stay at home and wait for death instead of running around and scaring people.’

Fu Yuanchuan looked indifferent but when he was going to leave, he heard an exclamation.

‘What’s going on with that mermaid?’

Fu Yuanchuan looked down and saw a golden-tailed little mermaid struggling against the pod of mermaids to swim towards him. The little mermaid stopped when he was close to the shore. He raised his head and his golden eyes were full of his shadow.

After a moment of silence, he crouched by the side of the mermaid pond and tried to dip his hand into the water……

The little mermaid did not flee.

The little mermaid hugged his hand.

The little mermaid kissed his finger.

It was as if a beam of light had shone into the gloomy world, leading him back to the world. <<less

The transfer student with his usual expressionless, iceberg-like face handed him a letter, “Classmate Yu.”

Yu Fan internally felt that this top student is annoyingly fastidious, even handing out a letter of challenge to request for a fight. He proceeded to roll up his sleeves and stand up.

“Please accept my love letter.”

Classmate Yu immediately sat back down.

At the Shooting World Cup awards ceremony, the entire nation cheered.

As reporters approached for interviews, before the audience could recover from his godlike appearance, they heard He Xingwang’s clear and resonant voice:

“My next plan is to get married.”

Global media congratulated him and the unknown lucky girl.

At her graduation party, Chi Suisui showcased her exceptional cello skills, and the video of her performance went viral online.

Netizens dug up her old Weibo posts: “Today I’ll cook something extra for my family.”

The accompanying picture showed a small, ugly fish.

Netizens: How poor must her family be??

Not long after, leaked invitations for a dating reality show revealed that Chi Suisui had declined.

Her reason? Her family had arranged a childhood betrothal.

Netizens: Her fiancé must be some smelly, uncouth dude, right??

Later, at the Olympics, He Xingwang won a gold medal. During the live broadcast, the camera panned over the audience.

Chi Suisui was seen holding the national flag, her eyes smiling brightly.

This photo instantly exploded on the internet, earning praise both domestically and internationally.

After the Olympics, outdoor streamers at the airport captured He Xingwang cradling a sleeping girl in his arms.

Her coat slipped off, revealing a radiant and beautiful face.

The live chat erupted.

Netizens: Isn’t that Chi Suisui?!

Netizens: I want this kind of childhood betrothal too!

One day, during Chi Suisui’s concert, a billionaire CEO and his wife, a national treasure musician, attended together. When interviewed by an obscure tabloid, they lavished excessive praise on her performance, sparking heated online debates.

The next day, an interview clip surfaced:

“What’s wrong with me praising my daughter’s performance?”

To love someone deeply is to wish to imprison them with a golden lock.... more>>

When Duan Yelin first saw Xu Hang, he wanted to lock him up and hide his beauty in the golden house—in fact, he did so.

If he seized him by force, he is a robber; if he is being patient and indifferent, he will be meat in someone else's chopsticks.

Xu Hang was unwilling, but he wanted to live. There were still many things he had not done, so he finally entered Xiaotong Guan.

It's a long-standing battle.

Even after four years of entanglement, Xu Hang always seemed like a bowl of freshly brewed medicine, with a faint aroma, but only after drinking it could one know whether it was poison or antidote.

It was a long time later that Duan Yelin realized that what he had locked up was not a cold and arrogant golden sparrow but a cold and sharp golden hairpin. <<less

Su Lingyue was the treasured pearl of the Su family, notorious for her capricious and overbearing temperament, acting with unbridled willfulness. According to rumors from that sophomore year summer camp, she had publicly humiliated Ji Zhiyi in front of their classmates, calling her a beggar who was unworthy of sharing the same tent. Not long after returning to school, Ji Zhiyi quietly processed her withdrawal papers and disappeared without a trace. Many classmates speculated that she couldn't bear the emotional trauma, shaking their heads in sympathy and regret.... more>>

Years later, the Su Group underwent a sudden transformation—the company split in two, with half remaining in the Su family's hands and half falling into Ji Zhiyi's possession. Along with the company shares, Su Lingyue also fell under Ji Zhiyi's authority.

Everyone suspected Ji Zhiyi had come seeking revenge, eagerly waiting to witness Su Lingyue's downfall. Su Lingyue herself shared this belief.

On the day she brought Su Lingyue home, Ji Zhiyi personally designed a pair of princess shoes. Socialites in their circle buzzed with excitement, all vying to purchase them at premium prices. As the shoes' value soared to astronomical heights, Ji Zhiyi retrieved them from their display case at the company's annual gathering. Under everyone's astonished gaze, she knelt down and, with meticulous care, placed them on Su Lingyue's feet. <<less

When he woke up from sleep, Ruan Shiqing, a weapon R&D engineer, became a wanderer on Junk Star.... more>>

Start with a cub, and the equipment depends on picking up.

Ruan Shiqing: …. OK.

Raising cubs is not easy, Ruan Shiqing picked up his old business and devoted himself to the great cause of garbage recycling and turning waste into treasure.

On the junk star B3024, a repair shop hidden in the corner is famous among the stars. It is said that as long as the starting price is given, there is no weapon that the shopkeeper cannot make.

The owner, Ruan Shiqing, who never could afford food and brought five cubs with him, became the richest man on the Interstellar Black List.

He packed up his luggage and carried the cubs into the spaceship cabin one by one, preparing to take the cubs to the capital star to see the world.

However, just after leaving the port, looking at the wanted notices posted everywhere, a question mark slowly appeared above Ruan Shiqing’s head: ?

How come the five interstellar pirates on this wanted list look like the cubs in his arms?

…things started to go wrong.​​

On the eve of the succession ceremony, Rong Heng was attacked, and his aircraft crashed on Junk Star B3024. He was seriously injured and nearly died, returning to the most humiliating childhood.

The infancy of the Yomir family: white fur, brown eyes, no horns, weak like a puppy.

In a desperate situation full of resentment, he picked him up from the dirty garbage heap with both hands, and said softly, “Whose puppy is it? Come home with me if no one wants it.”

If Rong Heng was able to, he would bite his wrist fiercely and tell him that the Yomir family was the most ancient and noble race in the entire universe.

But later, he became the emperor of the empire, but he was still willing to stay by his side in the weakest form, disguised as a little cub, just to monopolize the favor of the youth. <<less

When my daughter was 5 years old, her favorite phrase to say was, “I’m going to marry my daddy!” ... more>>

I was not happy to hear my beloved daughter say that, but I thought that when she grew up, she would forget about her daddy, get a boyfriend, get married, have a baby, and be happy.

But something was wrong with my daughter. Even when she was in elementary school, junior high school, and high school, she kept saying, “I’m going to marry my daddy!”, and each year she got more serious.

When she reached high school she even said, “I will become the prime minister and change the law so that I can marry my daddy!” She wanted to marry me, even if it meant changing the law. So no matter how long it took, I couldn’t say to my daughter, “You are my stepdaughter.”

His voice was as scorching as the hands that held her close. He said, “It's okay if you don't like me... but could you try liking yourself a little more?”

Years later, on a gentle and warm spring night in Rome, she appeared before him once again.

He pushed through the crowd toward her, presenting an entirely different demeanor—cold and brooding compared to his teenage years.

But ultimately, she touched his heart again and heard his lost murmurs in the darkness:

Toddler Shi Yi: “If you want to be a princess, then I will build a castle for you.”

Teenager Shi Yi: “Let’s go to outer space together. I’ll count the stars, but since you’re dumb, you can just count the moons.”

The year Yu Zhiyi was abandoned, Shi Yi took her to his home and protected her for the whole summer: “You are very adorable, worthy of being loved.”

The year they were 18, Shi Yi proposed; the year they were 22, she became Mrs. Shi.

Yu Zhiyi got picked to be the ‘mother’ when playing house, but it scared her playmate so much they cried, “Yu Zhiyi is so s*upid, I don’t want to be her dumb child.”

As such, she could only stand there and stare at the other kids playing together. Shi Yi who was passing by picked her up, “You are a little dummy, you need to find a partner that has a high IQ to save your future children.”

“Then…then who should I look for?”

“Since we’re neighbors, I’ll allow you to become Mrs. Shi when we’re older!”

When the young princess extended her hand, the servant’s son had no choice but to obey, bowing his head and kissing the back of her fingers. Even when her ball fell into the pond, he had no choice but to jump into the freezing water to retrieve it.

Qi Xiaochuan hated being manipulated by her.

But what he hated most was her indifference when he left. Luo Andi wished him a bright future without a trace of attachment, dismissing all those years of obsession as youthful ignorance.

Years later, Qi Xiaochuan built his fortune from scratch and became a newly minted tycoon. Meanwhile, the Luo family had long gone bankrupt, their fortunes reversed.

The former Miss Luo, now an ordinary employee, reunites with Qi Xiaochuan after many years. As he plots his revenge, she suddenly extends her hand toward him with a smile, just like before.

Before he realizes it, he reflexively kisses the back of her fingers, bowing low as if conditioned to do so.

Luo Andi: ? Sir, here’s your receipt.

Qi Xiaochuan: What’s wrong with me???

Qi Xiaochuan wants revenge on Luo Andi, but she only smiles at him.

“You seem upset?” she says softly, her smile gentle and harmless. “Do you want a hug?”

Qi Xiaochuan, his face dark with suppressed anger, remains silent for a long time. Finally, awkwardly bending down, he stiffly extends his arms and says curtly: “Hug.”

Tasha crossed over to a different world, and she transformed into a half-dead dungeon.

Yes, like in a game where you raise a monster ecosystem, hide treasure chests, and wait for heroes to come and fight.

Four hundred years after the Plane War, space cracks severed the connections between the divine realm, abyss, and human realm. Dragons and elves had long left the continent, the legendary hero who could move mountains and seas had become a myth, and the anomalies and hybrids that remained in the human world had become outcasts. At the peak of the expansion of the human empire, an ancient dungeon that could possibly connect to the abyss and summon demons had awakened.

The story of crossing into a dungeon, creating a grey new world that accommodates all races, beliefs, and lifestyles, with a self-serving female lead who has her own set of principles.

Management, upgrading, and an ensemble cast, with a focus on the plot, minimal emotions, the female lead transitioning later into human form, and the male lead being a demon who is dedicated to “digging pits” but ends up being persuaded by the female lead to advocate for world harmony. The protagonist is loyal to “golden thighs” and has self-created worldviews and societal progress, with accelerating gears; overall, it’s a healing genre. <<less
