Wen Chi was getting ready to join a romance reality show. His randomly assigned partner? Jiang Siheng—the movie emperor who debuted at the top of the industry.... more>>

His manager cheerfully broke the news to him. Wen Chi’s reaction was to collapse on the couch with a deadpan face: “So thrilled.”

A few seconds later, his phone’s robotic voice chimed in: “Damn, time to work again :)”

Thinking of the breach-of-contract penalty, Wen Chi slung on his little backpack and tearfully left home to brave the journey ahead.

The other contestants on the show? Internet-famous starlets more popular than him, filthy rich CEOs, game streamers with more fans…

No way to win. So whatever.

Wen Chi lies down in peace.jpg

While everyone else showed up dressed like flamboyant peacocks, Wen Chi rocked a loose T-shirt, oversized shorts, slippers, and a mini water bottle hanging around his neck—he looked exactly like a kindergartener on a class trip.

At first, the producers were worried Jiang Siheng wouldn’t be interested in Wen Chi, and that the two might lack chemistry on screen. But they quickly realized they’d overthought it.

During game segments, other couples worked together to complete tasks. As for the HengWen1 CP, Jiang Siheng did every single task himself under the blazing sun, while Wen Chi sat comfortably in the shade, wearing a bucket hat while hugging his water bottle, gently patting his hands to cheer Jiang Siheng on.

New viewers: Why is Wen Chi just sitting under the tree doing nothing? I can’t with this. Poor Jiang Siheng.

Viewers who watched the entire stream: It’s not that Wen Chi won’t move—it’s that Jiang Siheng absolutely refuses to let him get even a little sun.

Jiang Siheng spoiled Wen Chi so much, it made everyone else look away… but honestly, it was so good to ship!!

After the show ended, fans thought that was it for the HengWen CP, and cried their eyes out.

Until one day, during a red carpet livestream, Jiang Siheng’s nanny van pulled up outside. Fans who’d been waiting forever excitedly turned to look.

The man got out—but instead of heading towards the red carpet, he leaned slightly into the van and started talking to someone inside.

Fans wondered who it could be—who could get Jiang Siheng to speak so gently?

Then, a familiar salted fish slowly shuffled out of the van—none other than Wen Chi, obediently holding Jiang Siheng’s hand.

The closest fans overheard their conversation.

“Jiang Siheng, I’m so tired…”

“There, there. We’ll go home right after we get the award.”

“This is all your fault. I told you not to do it so many times. My back is killing me.”

“Mm, I won’t next time. You were amazing, baby.”

Fans: …Is there something going on here that we’re not supposed to know about? <<less

Qin Yuan transmigrated into a novel and became the main villain. ... more>>

He also found himself as the devoted simp for the heroine of this world.

However, Qin Yuan decided to abandon the path of simping, as he knew exactly what the heroine was truly like, having full knowledge of the novel’s plot.

When the heroine told him, “I don’t like you,” he calmly agreed and canceled their engagement, one that had been arranged by his past self.

Who was he, after all? He was the Holy Son of the Heavenly Vault Holy Land, the Young Master of the Great Emperor’s Family!

He was exceptionally talented and undeniably handsome.

With all these blessings and multiple identities, why would he continue simping for a fake noble heroine? That was simply out of the question.

With the awakening of the Destiny Villain System, Qin Yuan embarked on a journey to seize the protagonist’s opportunities and torment the heroine relentlessly.

In the end, the protagonist realized that the heroine was useless and discarded her. It was only then that she regretted her choices and finally remembered Qin Yuan’s kindness.

“Qin Yuan, I realized that I still have feelings for you…”

“What? You want to enter my Human Emperor Banner?” <<less

Fight moderately and play well, this is the ideal life in another world!... more>>

The bastard sword is a sword of moderate length. It’s slightly longer than a short sword, making precise handling a bit challenging. Compared to a long sword its reach falls somewhat short, making winning in direct clashes difficult. Capable of everything, yet not particularly adept at anything. Embracing such a moderate bastard sword, I, Mongrel, a guild man and middle-aged fellow, had a dream.

A dream of living leisurely in peace.

With my abilities, I could use gifts to defeat strong magical creatures if I wanted, and with my modern knowledge, I could potentially transform this different world. However, I choose not to.

Working casually at the guild, immersing myself in cooking and fishing… and if I can occasionally be of help to others, that’s more than enough.

This is the tale of a moderately laid-back guy, an adventure that doesn’t seek too many adventures. <<less

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.

Era + Military Marriage + Space + Family Matters... more>>

Lin Xiangnan, having just transmigrated, found her family embroiled in a heated argument about going to the countryside on her first day. Initially, she thought, "It's just going to the countryside, right? I have billions of resources in my space, I'm not afraid of struggling in the countryside!"

After helping her second maternal uncle farm for two days, she changed her mind: "Going to the countryside is impossible. I'm just lazy and gluttonous, I can't stand any hardship."

To avoid going to the countryside, she had to face arranged marriage. Her eldest uncle enthusiastically recommended the handsome military officer next door, "Gu Zhenhua was a bit of a scoundrel when he was young, but he's much better now."

Everyone knew how reckless Gu Zhenhua had been in his youth. Even though he was now a military officer, no one dared to mess with him. <<less

Only to die the day before her fortune arrived.

Maybe her resentment was just too intense, because right before death, she got bound to a wish-fulfillment system, kicking off her journey across multiple worlds.

But after meticulously selecting her, the poor system regrets it every day:

Why is my host always so unpredictable?!

Shun Haiba, a self-proclaimed ordinary high school student, was hit by a car and died one day. When he woke up, he found himself reincarnated in another world as Marius Greylord, the villainous nobleman from a romance game he had borrowed from a friend. ... more>>

Although he didn’t remember the details clearly, he knew that the fate of villains was typically grim. Despite this realization, Shun, now Marius, couldn’t bring himself to actively change the course of the scenario due to his inherently lazy nature.

However, fate forcibly led him to the heroines. Not following the original storyline, but to the villain's route.

“I’m not trying to interfere with the protagonist!”

Time and time again, Marius would often accidentally interrupt the protagonist and the heroines' events. Rather than merely interfering, Marius ended up completing these events himself.

The princess, a childhood friend, a cousin, and the daughter of a merchant — before he knew it, many heroines had gathered around him.

This is not the story of a protagonist breaking through to a happy ending. It is the tale of a villain who unintentionally charms the heroines.

“I didn’t mean to do that... I’m really sorry.” <<less

Qi Xu was brought back to his wealthy birth family at the age of 18. At 28, he died in that same wealthy family.... more>>

Looking back on those ten years, Qi Xu realized he hadn't exactly acted like a decent human being.

To show that he was mature and understanding, he actually turned down the jewels, luxury cars, houses, and yachts his biological parents gave him—completely wasting their good intentions.

He spent his whole life trying to prove that he was in no way inferior to the fake young master, only to end up betrayed by everyone, cast out by his loved ones, and die a tragic death after falling down the stairs.

Now reborn, Qi Xu decided: this time, he’s taking everything with him.

On the first day Qi Xu was brought back to the Shen family, Mr. and Mrs. Shen prepared two sapphires for both the real and fake young masters.

The fake young master was so “understanding” it hurt:

“I already have plenty of gems, Mom. Can I donate this to help build a school for the kids in the mountains?”

Qi Xu, receiving a gemstone for the first time, stared unblinkingly:

“Mom, can you buy me a safe to store my gems?”

When college started, the Shen couple gave each of the boys an apartment in a good school district to make studying easier.

The fake young master politely declined as usual:

“Dad, I haven’t even stayed in the seaside villa yet. Let’s give the school apartment to someone who really needs it.”

Qi Xu accepted smoothly:

“Thanks, Dad. I’ll move in right away.”

While everyone was praising the fake young master for being sensible and not materialistic, Qi Xu was already collecting rent from the school apartment.

And the tenant? It was none other than the fake young master’s childhood friend — the golden boy of the Xie family, Xie Huai, born at the top of the pyramid.

On rent day, Qi Xu knocked on Xie Huai’s door:

“Time to pay rent.”

Xie Huai had just come out of the shower, casually drying his half-wet hair.

“It’s Valentine’s Day today. Any special discounts?”

Qi Xu replied coolly:

“Nope. Single dog like me doesn’t celebrate Valentine’s Day.”

Xie Huai leaned down and kissed the corner of Qi Xu’s lips.

“Can’t I at least get a discount on utilities and half-off the rent?”

Qi Xu gave a cold laugh:

“Keep dreaming.”

You can have the person, but the rent stays full price.

This time around, Qi Xu took with him everything he didn’t have in his past life — including Xie Huai, who in the previous lifetime, had barely exchanged a few words with him. <<less

In an exhilarating twist of fate, Jiang Chen traverse into a fantasy realm novel he read, taking on the role of the notorious Holy Son in a riveting tale. But here’s the catch – he’s pegged as the female lead’s obedient doglicker. Or so the story initially wanted…... more>>

Ding, another round of slacking off earns you: the Immortal Technique, Great Daluo Heaven!’

Ding, for successfully slacking off you received: Immortal Emperor Cultivation!’

But wait, there’s a twist in the tale! The world around Jiang Chen starts to unravel in the most unexpected ways.

Why don’t you take a good look at yourself when you get turned from a demon dragon into a blood princess maid by a Hero?... more>>

You got hit by a truck and transported to another world—how about blaming yourself for that?

You reincarnated as a villainous dragon that everyone wants dead—blame yourself for that too, okay?

You got turned into a purple-haired girl by the Hero, who then used all sorts of props to… ahem, “torture” you—can we talk about how maybe that’s also your own fault?

Why is it that the Hero is always picking on you?

Why are you the only one who got turned into a girl?

Why are you the one working all day only to go home and warm the Hero’s bed and fetch him hot water?

Maybe it’s all your fault, huh?

How am I supposed to beat a max-level Hero? I just reincarnated, haven’t even learned a single skill yet, and the guy shows up at my door in full god-tier gear—what am I supposed to do?

And then all my subordinates surrendered!

When they saw me getting beat up, they went nuts, laughing like maniacs, going, “Ahahaha!”

Then the Hero started showing off his magic combo like, “I’m gonna kill you!”

And all I could do was fall to my knees and beg, “It hurts! It hurts so bad!”

Played to death, schemed to death, and then you still ask me,

“Hey, why don’t you reflect on yourself a bit more?”

You’re so cute!

The craziest part?

When the Hero found out the truth, he actually said,

“Hey, we’ve lived together so long already—why don’t you just marry me?” (shocked face)

What the h*ll?!

He knows I’m a guy, and he still wants me to marry him?

I’ve already been turned into a woman, and you’re still talking about marriage? No way!

I’m a man inside! There’s no way I’d marry anyone!

Just then, a big hand lands on the purple-haired girl’s head.

“What? Marrying me is that upsetting?”

“No! I was just kidding… hubby~!” <<less

Yu Xiang had just resigned and become a landlady for less than a year before she transmigrated into a novel.... more>>

She transmigrated into the body of a female cannon fodder with the same name in a cliche, s*upid, domineering CEO story.

In the story, every time the heroine’s sister plotted against the heroine, the female cannon fodder was the one who got unlucky in the end.

The female cannon fodder was unwilling to become a laughingstock, and eventually turned evil. In the struggle against the heroine, she was killed by the hero.

Yu Xiang: ??? I’m tired, whatever happens.

After she transmigrated, she saw the hero’s elder brother as soon as she opened her eyes.

Good Lord! Are you trying to kill me?

The hero’s elder brother was the biggest villain in the whole story. He was born in a noble family and had a handsome appearance. Hidden under his abstinent and gentle appearance was a ruthless and unpredictable personality.

And this man was looking at her coldly at that moment. She was obviously suffering for the heroine again.

Yu Xiang looked at his beautiful muscle lines.
