Bad news: Xu Yanmiao traveled back to ancient times, but he himself is lazy and uninterested in anything but internet cybersecurity, which is useless in ancient times.... more>>

Good news: He's bound to a system.

Bad news: The system is called the Gossip System, not the fortune-telling kind, but the kind that contains other people's private information and scandals. Utterly useless.

More bad news: This system is also glitchy, and the extent of the bugs is unknown.

Even more bad news: This body is that of a minor official who can attend court meetings, while Xu, the time traveler... doesn't understand the classics, can't write with a brush, and is at risk of being exposed for cheating in the imperial exams.

Xu Yanmiao: "..."

Forget it, just lie low, wait to die, maybe dying quickly could lead to another time travel.

...

In the court, the emperor was furious about state affairs, and the courtiers trembled in fear.

Xu Yanmiao pretended to listen attentively but was actually focused on browsing the Gossip System.

[Wow, the emperor just took in a 16-year-old noblewoman yesterday! A beautiful addition! He's getting stronger with age! And he was tossing and turning in bed all night but still has such a powerful voice now! Amazing!]

[This noblewoman used to be the crown prince's concubine! And the crown prince even knows how to write passionate love letters!]

[Wow wow wow! The crown prince sneaked into the grandpa's harem... hiss—got intimate while the old emperor was attending court! Do it quickly! Why isn't there any video...]

[Huh? Why is there no sound?]

Xu Yanmiao cautiously raised his head and glanced around.

[What happened? Why is everyone kneeling? Where's the emperor?]

—The emperor went to catch adultery in the harem.

*

The "imperial exam cheating" bomb finally exploded.

Xu Yanmiao couldn't explain why his handwriting on the exam paper didn't match his usual handwriting, nor could he answer why he didn't understand the classics.

The evidence prepared by the ousted crown prince of the emperor hit the nail on the head, and his personal bodyguard was ready to drag Xu Yanmiao away to the prison, awaiting execution in the autumn.

Xu Yanmiao held onto the gossip that proved his innocence but was in a quandary:

How do I explain the source of my information...

[Say that I secretly met with the Chief Examiner, the Minister of Rites, three nights before the exam? Impossible, that night, the Minister of Rites was dressed as a woman, spent the night at the General's Mansion, with the general...]

The general's body shook, and he interjected: "Your Majesty!!!!"

"Although the evidence of exam cheating is solid, I believe there's still something fishy about this. It should be re-investigated! Especially Xu... Xu... Xu Yanmiao's attire is neat and tidy! Someone who cares so much about their appearance, how could they tarnish their reputation!"

The crown prince, who couldn't hear his thoughts: ??

[Also, what's with saying that the examiner faking yawning and tiredness was intentionally leaving me a gap for cheating? He spent the night before the exam in the pigsty without sleeping, how could he not be tired the next day? But, surprisingly, the Imperial Academy lecturer actually believed in pig's milk...]

The Imperial Academy lecturer's face went pale, and he burst out: "Your Majesty!!!!"

"I... I agree with the General's words! How could Xu Lang cheat in the exam! He... he... he deliberately drank a glass of pure water before the exam, believing that only good-hearted people can use pure things, such a kind-hearted person, how could he cheat in the exam!"

Thinking he had everything under control, the crown prince: ??

Xu Yanmiao was deeply moved.

[They're all good people, even if their brains don't work well, they're trying their best to find reasons and excuses for me.]

[But I really have no way to turn the tables, alas, it's a pity that I haven't finished watching the TV series I've been following. The old emperor angered the empress last night and got kicked out of the bedchamber, and now I'm going to die before seeing the ending. He seems to be planning to paint his face with ink and pretend to be a cat to cheer up the empress...]

"Bang—"

The old emperor slammed the table, forcibly interrupting the continuous stream of thoughts: "I believe Xu Yanmiao did not cheat in the exam! Release him, innocent!"

The civil and military officials couldn't wait to echo, fearing that if they were too slow, Xu Yanmiao might spill more gossip.

"Yes yes yes! Release him innocent!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please end the court session! Let Xu Lang go home and rest! You've tired him out by making him stand for so long!"

The crown prince: ??

Did Xu Yanmiao drug them with hallucinogens or something? <<less

Fu Chaoyun transmigrates into a GL ABO novel as the s*um Alpha.... more>>

According to the original plot, she was an uneducated bully who committed countless misdeeds… ultimately getting killed in revenge by the blackened Omega female lead, Pei Xuezhi.

To survive—

When Pei Xuezhi participates in a variety show, Fu Chaoyun immediately signs up too, taking care of her and never leaving her side.

One day when Fu Chaoyun gets drunk, she only recognizes Pei Xuezhi, wanting hugs and cutely singing "Little Jumping Frog" to please the beauty!

Audience: 【Ahhhh the childish top is the best! She only has eyes for her! ChaoyunXuezhi is so sweet!!!】

When Pei Xuezhi can't portray romantic gazes while filming a movie, Fu Chaoyun immediately calls the screenwriter.

"Adding one million to invest, change the script."

Film crew: 【Is Producer Fu jealous? Such a domineering Alpha doting on the cold beauty Omega… they're such relationship goals!】

Later, paparazzi catch them entering and leaving the same villa together.

Netizens: 【I get it! It's rut season! Seven days and seven nights non-stop!】

Though things develop strangely each time, Fu Chaoyun diligently acts as Pei Xuezhi's protector and good friend.

Until one day, Pei Xuezhi goes into heat, and Fu Chaoyun skillfully reaches for suppressants.

Pei Xuezhi knocks them away, "Fu Chaoyun, are you really an Alpha?!"

Fu Chaoyun: ???

The cold beauty's eyes are now tinged red, "I don't want those."

Her voice softens gradually, finally becoming coquettish, "I want your warmth, I want… you to mark me yourself."

Before Fu Chaoyun can consider whether to "hold back" this time, she's pulled down by the head, lips pressed against the other's nape, marking her again and again…

Waking up the next morning, Fu Chaoyun stares at the beauty's still smooth, flat belly and ponders.

As the great contributor to keeping this home, should she plan ahead… and ask the family for future baby formula money?

- - - - -

In her previous life, Pei Xuezhi endured endless torment, feeling only hatred and no love for that person in the end.

Living again, though she's black-hearted, that person unexpectedly changes completely, only knowing how to clumsily treat her well. At first, she found it ridiculous, but gradually Pei Xuezhi falls for her.

Except…

"Why are your eyes still empty of me?"

Snow-white cool fingertips brush against the other's cheek as Pei Xuezhi softly murmurs, "Sister~ In this life, your methods of ruining someone have improved."

In crisis, Fu Chaoyun looks up, plants a kiss on her lips, and Pei Xuezhi watches as that person freezes, then gradually softens.

This time, she's willing to fall in love.

Xu Yanqing, who tragically died young after staying up all night reading passionate comments and then angrily completing five test papers, just wanted to be a salted fish in this life.... more>>

Unfortunately, on the very day he transmigrated into a book, he was drugged. By a twist of fate, Xu Yanqing ended up sleeping with a beautiful Taoist priest. The Taoist priest's face was genuinely stunning, and his immortal aura made people want to bow in reverence.

The next day after sleeping with the Taoist priest, Xu Yanqing patted his bu*t and ran away, figuring he was free to live his life without anyone bothering him. Things were going great, but there was one tricky problem: why was his belly getting bigger day by day...?

*

All the civil and military officials in the court knew their Majesty was a Taoist priest with a pure heart and few desires. But then, at some point, a delicate yet lazy young man appeared by His Majesty's side. And then, without anyone realizing it, His Majesty started bringing a baby to court!

Shocked.jpg , the ministers were troubled.

His Majesty was also troubled, and so was the little prince.

"Father Emperor, when can Daddy play with me?"

"He can play with you once he wakes up."

"But when will Daddy wake up?!"

The little prince sighed and so did His Majesty. The father and son looked at the person soundly asleep on the bed, their eyes filled with resentment.

Xu Yanqing: Waking up is impossible, and taking care of the child is also impossible, unless... everyone sleeps together! <<less

Shen Liuxiang stayed up all night reading a novel about a white lotus protagonist shou and his easy road to power. Having finished it, he thumped his chest and stomped his foot in unhappiness. ... more>>

In the novel, there was a villainous shizun who shared his name.

He was as beautiful as a flower, but would rather ruin his own looks to imitate others.

He was infatuated with the Bingshan Sword Venerable, who had his heart set on the protagonist shou. Foolish and shameless, he continued to entangle with and chase after the other.

He severed his connection to his father, the Venerable Emperor, and renounced his ties to his senior brother in the Sect. He fought to the death with his blood brother, the Demon Venerable.

For the Sword Venerable, he was even willing to get rid of his toughest rival-in-love—his own disciple, who would later become number one in the cultivation world!

After going to sleep, Shen Liuxiang woke up to find himself transmigrated as the villain Shizun in the book.

"Strive to look like the protagonist shou? Wake up, this immortal is the most beautiful in the world!"

"Sword Venerable, who? Is he stronger than my father, the Venerable Emperor?! Is he more handsome than my senior brother in the Sect?! Is he fiercer than my blood brother, Demon Venerable?!”

Facing the protagonist's greatest backer in the future, Zhou Xuanlan, Shen Liuxiang decided to grab onto the opportunity, seize his good fortune, and stifle the danger in the cradle.

However, his disciple was too well-behaved.

"All spiritual treasures in heaven and on earth belong to Shizun. All ancient relics belong to Shizun. This disciple also belongs to Shizun."

Shen Liuxiang: "...Alright, I’ll give you a chance QAQ"

Initially an indifferent shizun, Shen Liuxiang slowly became fiercely protective of his disciple. His disciple, in turn, was upright, righteous, and increasingly loyal towards him. However, right at this time, Shen Liuxiang miscalculated. The Zhou Xuanlan from the original novel had returned!

"Shizun has changed so much," the man spoke with a dangerous air, hugging him from behind, the low voice resounding right beside his ear, “but I like it very much."

Shen Liuxiang cried. He wanted his obedient disciple back! <<less

Lu Ping, the Ninth Prince, is known for being a handsome but talentless “pretty boy” with little presence in the imperial court. On the other hand, Yan Ren, the dashing heir to a powerful noble family, is admired for his charisma and popularity. Their reputation is worlds apart.... more>>

When they first met, Yan Ren teased Lu Ping by playing with his jade token. Gritting his teeth, Lu Ping thought, “This Young Master Yan is such a complete scoundrel! I should avoid him at all costs. ”

Yet, no matter how much he tried, Lu Ping couldn’t escape him. In the warm drapery of the Huafen Tower, under the soft glow of moonlight, Yan Ren clenched Lu Ping’s wrist tightly enough to leave red marks and sneered, “Why are you crying? Weren’t you madly in love with me? ”

But fate has other plans. Despite trying to keep his distance, three years later, Lu Ping unexpectedly finds the imperial throne falling into his lap. Everyone says it’s pure luck that he got to sit on the dragon throne.

Soon after his ascension, an urgent report came from the border—the formidable General Yan Ren, the Marquis of the North, is returning to the capital to fulfill his duties.

The old ministers immediately exclaimed, “Your Majesty! Yan Ren is a cunning man with hidden ambitions! His return to the court surely means he’s plotting to seize power with his army. You must act decisively, Your Majesty! ”

Lu Ping feels like crying, “I’m not good at political scheming! ”

Then he hesitated and said, “How about… I seduce him with my beauty? ” <<less

I transmigrated into a novel, becoming the villain.... more>>

After dozens of attempts, I failed each time and couldn’t return to the real world.

Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger.

Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything.

Female Lead #1: “Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist’s opportunities. I just want to get stronger.”

Female Lead #2: “I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos.”

Female Lead #3: “What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?”

Yu Yan transmigrated into a cultivation novel as a stand-in for the beloved protagonist. Upon opening his eyes, he found himself in the “jumping-off-a-cliff” scene. In the original plot, he didn’t dare to jump—he was just bluffing to guilt-trip the people who once doted on him.... more>>

Everyone knew he wouldn’t jump, so they didn’t even spare him a glance.

Yu Yan jumped. Why? Because he knew his chance for a comeback was at the bottom of that cliff!

Down there was the novel’s ultimate villain, the Demon Lord Duan Lin. Armed with the knowledge that the Demon Lord was a certified fluff enthusiast, Yu Yan transformed into a cute little kitten and acted like he owned the place.

At first, of course, the Demon Lord was suspicious. He gave a chilling warning:

“If I find out you’re a human in disguise, you’re dead.”

But Yu Yan’s acting skills were top-notch. He played the part of an adorably clueless kitten so well that the Demon Lord ended up pampering him to the heavens.

Yu Yan’s plan was simple: take advantage of the situation and absorb the mysterious spiritual energy hidden in the depths of the cliff. With it, he could ascend and turn his fate around.

Unfortunately, ten years passed in the blink of an eye. Yu Yan had scoured every inch of the cliff but still couldn’t find his golden ticket. Instead, the Demon Lord started acting… off.

“Idiot, after all the spiritual pills you’ve eaten, you still can’t transform.”

“Why haven’t you taken human form today?”

“Are you too dumb to cultivate?”

“You’re not allowed to die!”

Yu Yan, the noble cat overlord, was rudely shaken awake. Annoyed, he meowed: Who keeps spreading rumors I’m dead? I’m just sunbathing! For the thousandth time, I’m not dead!

Faced with the Demon Lord’s increasingly extreme attempts at “raising” him, Yu Yan finally transformed into his human form… right in the Demon Lord’s arms. For a brief moment, Yu Yan swore he saw the Demon Lord blush.

Though Yu Yan knew his lies would be exposed as soon as he left the cliff, he couldn’t help but enjoy it when the Demon Lord, back on the surface, grabbed the protagonist and snarled:

“You imposter! Where’s my cat?! Where did you hide my precious cat?!”

Yu Yan thought to himself, This feels amazing. <<less

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

Jiang Wu is a wandering soul who has roamed the earth for a thousand years. One day, he finds himself in a body, reincarnated as a historically infamous and deposed emperor who was beheaded after a coup.... more>>

Jiang Wu: Hmm...

Being an emperor, a position he finds nightmarish, Jiang Wu, with his depressed outlook on life, just wants to hand over the throne and quickly return to his ghostly state.

To speed up the rebellion of the Yin family, he summons the Yin family's eldest son to the palace to serve him. Immediately, the court is filled with outrage, and the Yin family almost storms the palace to skin him alive.

That night, Jiang Wu lazily demands humiliating tasks from the fiercely glaring Yin Wuzhi: "Hold me, feed me, and lull me to sleep."

Finished, he sends Yin Wuzhi off to review documents.

The next day, the humiliation continues: "Hold me, push me on a swing, lift me up high."

Finished, he sends Yin Wuzhi off to review documents.

On the third day, the demands escalate: "Hold me, kiss me, and squat down to listen to what I have to say."

Yin Wuzhi, staring at the lazy, slumped figure on the couch: .....

This is too much!!!

If this Laozi doesn't kill you, I won't be called Yin Wuzhi!!!

He furiously reviews documents.jpg

Then, a year passes, two years pass, and despite Jiang Wu's daily humiliations and forcing Yin Wuzhi to review documents, the throne becomes more secure, the people grow richer, and the empire prospers year by year.

Jiang Juan had transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon fodder who had pretended to be sick for many years, and was forcibly married off to Prince Li, Xue Fangli.... more>>

However, no one knew that Xue Fangli wouldn’t live past three chapters. Jiang Juan only needed to endure him until he died, and then he would harvest a happy salted fish life.

On the day of their marriage,

Xue Fangli: “I don’t have much time left. I’ve wronged you.”

Jiang Juan: “You haven’t wronged me, Your Highness. It’s an honor for me to be associated with someone as distinguished as you.”

Xue Fangli: “How do you feel about leaving? Would you like that?”

Jiang Juan: “I am willing to accompany Your Highness forever”

After a moment of silence, Xue Fangli coughed lightly, blood seeping from his fingers. “In that case, I’ll come back in a few days to ask you again.”

Jiang Juan’s face paled, but inwardly, he was ecstatic.

—— You will ask me again in a few days? That’s impossible. You’ll die within three chapters.

Xue Fangli remained silent, quietly scoffing to himself.

— You are willing to accompany me forever? With your frailty, how long can you hold on?

*

Later, three chapters had passed, and although Xue Fangli frequently coughed up blood, he remained alive and well.

Several months later, while Jiang Juan’s heart condition often flared up, he remained unharmed.

Xue Fangli: ?

Jiang Juan: ?

Later on, as the plot took unexpected turns, Xue Fangli ascended to the throne, and both of them changed their minds.

—He couldn’t die.

On this day, a renowned physician from Jiangnan arrived in the capital. Jiang Juan immediately left the palace to find him. He kicked open the door of his room and said, “Physician, my husband often coughs up blood and is weak. I’m not ready to be a widow yet. Can you help…?”

Inside the room, Xue Fangli grabbed the renowned physician by the neck with one hand and lifted him up, his face darkened. “My Empress suffers from heart disease, and his condition often worsens. He’s frail and unable to care for himself. Will you treat him, or…?”

The two people’s eyes met.

“?”

Ruan Cha grew up in a small town where her family of three lived off rental income and farming, leading an easygoing, simple life.... more>>

Everything changed when her biological mother was recognized as the real daughter of a wealthy family, and Ruan Cha became the true heiress.

Suddenly, Ruan Cha realized that her life was actually part of a system-driven academic drama novel, where she, the girl praised for her beauty since childhood, was destined to be the clumsy, unattractive, and short-lived supporting character!

After her death, her parents' lives would spiral into tragedy-one losing their mind, the other meeting a miserable end. The whole family was nothing but cannon fodder!

As she pieced the plot together, Ruan Cha looked up at her reflection: stunning and adorable. Then she turned toward her parents, lying on the bed giggling after their meal, embodying peak "slacker" vibes.

Her feelings?

Complicated.

…

[Mini-Theater]

When Ruan Cha's parents accidentally discovered that their carefree and cheerful daughter had been bullied in her new elite high school, they were devastated.

Their thoughtful daughter didn't complain or cry-she just studied harder, her face growing thinner by the day. It broke their hearts.

Father Ruan: "At the last parent-teacher meeting, the other parents asked what companies we run. I said we're landlords."

Mother Ruan: "And at the last art festival, when they talked about their love for wine and jewelry, I said I love farming."

Father and Mother Ruan: "..."

The couple exchanged glances and sighed in unison.

Father Ruan: "So, even if you own a hundred buildings, being a landlord still earns no respect, huh?"

Mother Ruan: "And even if you grow cabbages worth 1,000 yuan each, farming still isn't a proper hobby, huh?"

After a long silence, they looked skyward and lamented together:

"Life in the big city is just too hard!" <<less

Su Su was a young shark who had just reached adulthood and often didn't have enough to eat because of his large food intake and poor hunting skills. Hearing that mermaids could be raised by humans, Su Su found the mermaid tribe in the sea and sought a way to become a mermaid.... more>>

The most beautiful little mermaid in the mermaid tribe escaped marriage and was originally promised to the imperial admiral, but he fell in love with a killer whale in the sea.

The little shark became a stand-in for the little mermaid and was packed into a huge fishing boat.

Imperial Admiral Qi Hanyi was forced by the empire to marry a mermaid, and when he returned from the battlefield, he heard that mermaid had been washed and sent to his home.

"No, I won't raise it, send it away immediately."

Qi Hanyi angrily hung up the phone and rushed back home: "Where is the mermaid?"

In the empty dark blue huge fish pond, a two-meter-long shark swung its tail and emerged from the surface of the pool.

He opened his mouth toward Qi Hanyi, showing a row of neatly pointed teeth, waving his fins to greet him cheerfully, and pointed to his mouth.

Then Qi Hanyi heard the shark in front of him stuttering to him in a not-so-skilled human language: "Honey, hungry, hungry, food." <<less

It's laughable that after a century of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it crumbled due to the decline of the royal heirs. Not only did a fool ascend the throne, but also a eunuch seized great power.... more>>

Wu Jing found himself in the shoes of the last imperial son of the Great Zhou, a recently crowned emperor who was perceived as a fool. He watched as people took advantage of his ignorance, serving him a meager meal of vegetables and plain rice.

Fists clenched, he grew angry.

Outside the palace hall, palace maids gossiped:
"That little emperor is quite handsome."
"If only he weren't a fool."
"The Ninth Thousand Years probably won't tolerate the restored normal emperor sitting in this position."

Wu Jing felt deflated.
He had to swallow his pride and continue pretending to be a fool.

Until one day, as he passed by the imperial garden, he accidentally saw the unpredictable and ruthless Ninth Thousand Years, known for killing without blinking, wearing a crane-patterned court robe. The red sleeves draped gracefully on the ground.

The Ninth Thousand Years squatted down, revealing a side profile with a smiling expression, extending a slender hand, feeding... a wild cat!

This cat was one of the wild cats in the imperial garden.
The next day, at the same spot, he saw the Ninth Thousand Years feeding a limping stray dog.

The third encounter was in the imperial study.
Wu Jing sat stiffly on the grand dragon throne, with a eunuch beneath his feet, a ten-year-old who accidentally spilled tea on the Ninth Thousand Years' robe, now frantically bowing.

Blood streamed down his face.

After a moment, someone came to take the little eunuch away, but the man sitting in the chief minister's chair suddenly spoke in a gentle tone, "Forget it, he's just a child."

Wu Jing shifted his black eyes.
Ning Qinghong turned his gaze, "Your Majesty, please let me review your lessons during this time."

"Gurgle—"
Wu Jing awkwardly looked at his stomach, a sudden insight striking him. The semi-grown teenager tilted up a pretty little face, his black eyes innocent, "Brother, I'm hungry."

Ning Qinghong narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up a pastry, "Come here." He fed the little emperor like he was feeding a kitten, coaxing him to finish.

Rumors spread that the Ninth Thousand Years suffered from a mental illness.
Sometimes smiling, sometimes cruel and tyrannical.

Wu Jing, who regretted hugging this thigh too late, hid in the wardrobe of the sleeping palace, hearing calls from outside.

Ning Qinghong, with a cold face, spoke in an oddly soft tone,
"Wu Wu, aren't you hungry?" <<less

There are no customers because this is right in front of a dungeon, but it doesn’t matter. All I want is to work two days and play five days. But.

[Class: I woke up as the cafe owner (F)]

[Skill: I have the coffee in my hand (Lv.1)]

[Mission: Brew 100 cups of mixed coffee (0/100)]

[Item: Mixed Coffee – Increases recovery speed by 100% faster]

After leaving my life as a wage s*ave, I became a coffee s*ave.

Also, the attractive regular customer who keeps bothering me is somehow unusual.

It doesn’t feel great. Isn’t it like the story of the main character of the RPG, who was just trying to run an errand, and ends up fighting the Demon after getting caught up in something annoying?

Yes, I will not. I can not. I have no intention of playing more than the role of a novice innkeeper. <<less

Xu Yinyin transmigrated into a wealthy family drama novel as the real daughter who was swapped at birth and destined to be cannon fodder.... more>>

Her predecessor harbored resentment toward her biological parents for favoring the fake daughter and constantly fought for attention, ultimately becoming a social pariah. She was cast out of the wealthy family and ended up on the streets.

With the "Melon-Eating System" now bound to her, Xu Yinyin declared, “Life in a rich family is all about enjoying endless food and fun. Why compete for love? Let’s just eat melons (gossip) and watch the drama—it’s pure bliss!”

Scene 1:

Mother: “I raised Yaoyao as my own and can’t alienate her just because you’ve returned. But I’ll try to be good to you.”

Xu Yinyin (nodding obediently): “Okay.”

OS (inner thoughts): “Oh my, this ‘sister’ Yaoyao is actually the daughter of your husband's white moonlight (first love). What a twisted love triangle! Well, technically, raising her as your own isn’t too far off.”

The mother, who could hear Xu Yinyin's inner thoughts, suddenly collapsed into a chair, weak-kneed.

Xu Yinyin: “Huh? Why did she suddenly give me a black card and tell me to spend freely?!”

Scene 2:

Father: “Yaoyao is kind and timid. Speak gently to her; don’t scare her.”

Xu Yinyin (nodding obediently): “Okay.”

OS: “My sister is timid, sure, but she secretly supports her biological mom and will one day transfer family assets to her biological father. You're just a big sucker raising someone else's wife and child. Your enemy must laugh themselves to sleep nightly!”

The father, who overheard her inner thoughts, flushed with anger and collapsed onto the couch.

Xu Yinyin: “Eh? Why did he suddenly give me shares in the company and tell me to spend more and worry less?!”

Scene 3:

Grandpa wanted Xu Yinyin to gain experience by joining the family business. The second aunt, a general manager, said, “Your college isn’t prestigious. If you join, start as a receptionist for credibility. Is that okay?”

Xu Yinyin (smiling): “No problem.”

OS: “You’re just afraid I’ll catch you and my uncle-in-law having an affair, huh? My, my, you’re quite good at sneaking around with family!”

“Wow, wow, my uncle-in-law doesn’t have any tadpoles (infertile)? Poor auntie blames herself and endures his cheating, even agreeing to adopt his illegitimate child. What kind of monstrosity is this? Auntie ought to go full villain mode!”

“Wait, why did Auntie suddenly slap Uncle and kick him out with nothing?!”

As Xu Yinyin indulged her gossip cravings, she became a regular at high-society events.

A month later—

The richest man gifted her an island.

An elite socialite gave her several mansions.

A domineering CEO begged her to have his child, unstoppable.

Xu Yinyin (confused): “Uh, what’s going on here…?”

Translator's Note: She's always invited to parties so they can eat melons (gossips). <<less

Tan Li was pulled into the world of infinite flow at the most immature and irritable age.... more>>

After successfully passing the level and returning, Tan Li, who had become loving, peaceful and calm, realized that she was still using the script of the control group of real and fake daughters in a novel.

As a real daughter, she was disgusted by everyone and ended up miserable because she was obsessed with competing for family property and love with the fake daughter.

Tan Li: ??? ?

With a seven-digit pocket money every month and extra subsidies from time to time, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

She has worked hard for so many years and finally has the opportunity to lie down. If not now, when will she lie down? <<less

Xing Shi accidentally transmigrated to a magic world and had a very bad life.... more>>

However, he was lucky. One day, he opened his eyes and found that he had returned to normal human society. His eyes filled with tears, and he decided to enjoy life.

Then at this time, a voice sounded in his mind.

[System 99, successfully bound to the host.]

One day, Fu Xiuning could suddenly hear the voices of the systems in other people. The systems and host had a common goal, which was to capture him. They surrounded him, all with evil intentions. He ab*sed batch after batch, like teasing a cat. Then today, he heard the familiar opening again—

[System 99, successfully bound to the host.]

[Host, please follow the requirements to capture the mission target, or you will be erased.]

Fu Xiuning inwardly smiled and thought about how to solve this problem. Then he heard the following dialogue.

Xing Shi: “Great! Noodles with soybean paste!”

System: “Host...”

Xing Shi: “It tastes like noodles with soybean paste!”

System: “Host, please...”

Xing Shi: Ahhhh! Noodles with soybean paste!”

System: “Did you hear me?”

Xing Shi: “Shut up. No one can stop me from eating noodles with soybean paste today!”

System: “Start the first level punishment program. The countdown is 3 seconds.”

Xing Shi stood there without moving. After a moment, he asked sincerely, “Are you not done yet? Is your time flow different from ours?”

System: “?”

Fu Xiuning: “?”

The system froze for a moment. “Are you okay?”

Xing Shi said, “Oh, this means the punishment is over. Is that it?”

He was happy. “Then I’ll go and buy noodles with soybean paste. Bye~”

The system was a bit confused. “...No, why are you okay?” <<less
