Judith had once seen a living dragon.... more>>

His name was Serpion. A legendary archmage who, despite being born with ominous red eyes, had clawed his way to the top of Lumentia’s magical world through sheer ability. He stood as the shining master of the Ivory Tower, ranked No.1 among all magi. People praised him as though a mythical dragon had returned to life.

Just like that pristine tower that never lost its brilliance, everyone believed his name would shine forever. And oh, how that made her stomach twist with envy.

[Serpion Mirnoia. Dismissed by unanimous vote.]

But at last, the myth came to an end. Not just ended, completely and utterly collapsed.

[The criminal Serpion is hereby classified as a Tier 1 Threat. He is permanently expelled from all Lumentia institutions.]

The man who had once been Lumentia’s brightest star became a disgraced criminal overnight. Despite all his achievements, despite once being hailed a hero, Judith didn’t feel the slightest bit sorry for him.

If only he hadn’t cast forbidden magic. Or if, after doing it, he had shown even a shred of remorse. Or at the very least, if he hadn’t treated people like dirt his whole life. Then maybe people wouldn’t have been so eager to cut him off the moment he fell.

If not for all that, someone like Serpion, a man of such immense power, might never have fallen this far.

He had it coming. And he got what he deserved.

Judith, who knew better than anyone how insufferable he had been, laughed out loud at the news of his downfall.

“Hey there, Judith. Long time no see.”

She never imagined he would come looking for her himself. After eight years, he appeared, still brazen, still unashamed, and made her an outrageous offer.

“I’ll make you an archmage.”

He, a man who had lost everything, promised to turn her, a woman born without magical power and thus never even considered a mage, into a master of the arcane.

“But… you’re broke now, aren’t you?”

He had nothing left. And yet, he dared to make that promise. <<less

She believed Lin Che was a loyal dog to her, only leaving if she abandoned him, and never leaving on his own accord. So, on the day Lin Che left, she merely sat on the sofa, crossing her legs and mocking him, "Don't regret it, once you leave, you're not allowed to come back."

 "Alright." Lin Che didn't turn his head as he walked away. ...

Later, Qin Wei had a disagreement with her childhood sweetheart, Bai Yueguang(white moonlight.) Drunk late at night, she went to find Lin Che for comfort.

Qin Wei's eyes instantly filled with tears, realizing that the first person to regret and lose their mind was herself. <<less

Tsubaki Ichijou, the daughter of a distinguished family, has long harbored feelings for her bodyguard, Reiji Takano. However, due to their age gap and difference in social standing, she was never able to confess her feelings and ended up entering an arranged marriage with a man chosen by her father.... more>>

The man, the son of another prestigious family, seemed like a pleasant and good-natured young man, but after the marriage, his attitude drastically changed. He became an emotionally abusive husband who maintained a good facade in public, treating Tsubaki coldly as nothing more than a wife in name only.

Three years later, after having an affair, her husband declared she was no longer of use and ordered her to leave. Following the divorce, Tsubaki returned to her family home, where she was reunited with her first love, Reiji.

I hate bossam, really. It’s not just about disparaging bossam as a dish.... more>>

It’s the kind that’s been passed down through three generations—from the mother-in-law’s mother-in-law to the daughter-in-law’s daughter-in-law—supplying products to X-Ket Kurly, X-Pang, and convenience store ready-meals, with customers lining up endlessly on weekdays and weekends alike, my fingers swelling from counting cash, and paper allergies flaring up.

It’s this damned bossam hotspot, Maeng’s Jinmi Bossam, that I hate!

“I’m going to become independent!!”

There were two conditions for independence. Bring a spouse candidate. That spouse candidate had to be a respectable person who could live well and eat well without inheriting the bossam shop.

And the man in front of me was undoubtedly that kind of person.

“Hey, honey.”

“What, honey?”

“Marry me.”

The man called “Director” let out a snicker. A heavy, smoky wood scent emanated from him.

“How old are you?”

“So our honey’s conscience doesn’t crack, I’m twenty-one—already a whole year past twenty.”

“Twenty-one and worrying about my conscience too… Guess it’s about time I kick the bucket. Maybe I’ll have to bid farewell to life the day after tomorrow.”

“Then how about we stamp the marriage papers today, enjoy a one-day honeymoon, and wrap it up with widowhood the day after tomorrow—a perfect three-day course? How is it you already know my heart so well?”

Thud— A large hand landed on my round head and then pulled away.

“Go search up what ‘Daeho’ does for a living, or better yet, ask your mom about it. Stop looking at weird stuff online, okay?”

The name of the man who vanished like that was Cha Jihwon. He was an executive director at Daeho Construction, a company said to have grown from organized crime roots.

So, what am I supposed to do about it? I want independence—no, I want to get married. Can I really hold back from doing it?

A third-generation only son of a gangster family X a third-generation only son of a bossam hotspot,

How two third-generation only sons get married! <<less

"Marry a commoner? Why on earth would I do that?"

To make matters worse, the man in question is not only a commoner but also a widower. Despite his abundant wealth, there are values in this world far more significant than money.

The man says: “Touch Momo again, and I’ll cut your hand off.”

Xie Yan: “Excuse me, handsome, who are you?”

A few minutes later, Xie Yan realizes—he’s transmigrated into a novel. The man lying next to him is the villain in a melodramatic dog-blood romance, and he himself has become the side character who married the villain to help him steal the heroine away from the protagonist.

That night, the mighty head of the Qiao family in BeiCheng, Qiao YuChen, pinned her against the sofa.... more>>

“An Ran, you know that being married means that both parties must fulfill their obligations.”

“Our marriage is only a contract.”

“A contract still means legally binding, An Ran, you, can’t escape.”

An Ran was rumored to be the “evil adopted daughter” that decided to “backstab” the An family.

There were three things she regretted during her life:

Firstly, the night her mother passed away; she went to the wrong person for help. Not only did she lose her innocence, but she also had to endure four years of prison.

Secondly, after she got out of prison, to seek revenge on her father’s family, she gave up part of her liver and provoked Qian YuChen, who was still An Xin’s boyfriend at the time.

Finally, she shouldn’t have played with fire. She should have never fallen in love with that man. <<less

“If divorce isn’t an option, then I’ll get married!”

Little does she expect a deep, baritone voice to respond immediately:

“Then marry me.”

The man standing before her is none other than Lee Min-hyuk, the CEO of Seoul’s Le Soleil Hotel—and he’s drop-dead gorgeous. His proposal? A marriage within ten days, with one condition: no divorce, ever.

“I want to marry you within ten days,” Min-hyuk says bluntly.

“What? Ten days?” Dan-jung stammers in disbelief.

“And the condition is simple: no divorce, for life.”

When Dan-jung hesitates, Min-hyuk reveals another shocking detail:

“By the way, I’m sick.”

“Sick? What do you mean?”

“I can’t feel emotions.”

Thus begins their unconventional marriage—a union between a woman desperate for eternal love and a man incapable of feeling emotions. As they navigate their “no-divorce” agreement, their lives intertwine in unexpected ways, leading to laughter, growth, and perhaps even love. <<less

Bai Xu, a genius investor, suddenly finds himself transmigrated into a novel about the power struggles of a wealthy family, becoming the most despised adopted son of the Bai family.

The original host was an orphan who became the nominal young master of the Bai family only because a fortune teller once said his fate was strong enough to ward off disasters.

The original host had good looks but was timid and dull, holding the title of young master in name only, even the servants could bully him.

Things worsened after the powerful patriarch of the Bai family passed away. For business interests, the Bai family members forced the original host into a marriage with the third young master of the Shang family, who was in a coma due to a car accident, under the pretext of a ‘bringing good fortune’ wedding.

Within less than a year, the original host was used and ultimately died in the Shang family’s power struggles.

Bai Xu, having just transmigrated for three days, found himself in the midst of a grand forced marriage scene.

Facing the scheming and calculating members of the Bai family, Bai Xu glanced at his unconscious fiancé on the hospital bed and proactively said:

“Marriage is ultimately a matter between the two families. Since my future fiancé isn’t available, just transfer the bride price and dowry directly to my account once you’ve settled everything.”

The Bai family members, caught off guard by his blunt demand for money: “?”

After the terms were settled and the ward door closed, Bai Xu hummed happily: “Tsk, tsk, tsk, good-looking but in a coma, wealthy family but can’t control me. Where else could I find such a perfect deal— an effectively null and transparent marriage? It’s practically free money~”

And there was no better match than the prim playboy of the Escalante family.

“After we get married, everything will be different. You will be more free than before our marriage.”

“What about you?”

“Under the duties as your wife, I will do what is justifiable. It will be done regardless of you.”

“So, you’re saying you’re going to have a child but you’re not going to do this kind of thing with me?”

This was because she didn’t need a decent husband, but a man who would someday be legally removed from her life.

When he can fill the petition up with the names of the women he fooled around with overnight, then she can become a successful Ortega woman.

“My feelings will never change, Angelica. I’ll bless both of you, so you can find happiness forever.”... more>>

A confession from a secondary male lead that wasn’t in the original novel. Rahil, who became emperor, vowed eternal love to the original female lead just before she went to the altar.

Now as the emperor, he needed to have an empress. But he wanted someone who wouldn’t torment his beloved Angelica. The perfect person for that role was Anais Ruol.

A woman who, despite her vow of eternity, dared to look down on the emperor with contempt. Indifferent to his love and clever enough not to hurt Angelica. A woman cold to love, cynical about it.

“There’s no one else but you. Someone who can stay by my side without wavering, who can play the role of a wise empress…”

“Let’s draft a contract. But before that… allow me just one slap.”

For Angelica, for the nation, his feelings towards Anais leaned more towards denial. Yet, strangely, every time he was with her, Rahil felt an unfamiliar and unbelievable flutter in his heart.

“You can’t… can’t kiss me!”

“Why?”

“Because my first kiss will be with another man!”

On their wedding night, Rahil was both shocked and betrayed by Anais’s explosive statement. But at the same time, he became even more determined.

For so long, her love for him was unrequited.

She did not wish for their marriage to be a transaction.

His impulsive actions, his unbridled desire for her—they were all too unfamiliar.

“You can also do it with the person you plan to marry.”

The delicate and lovable An Ruanruan was given to marry such a cruel Demon General as soon as she came of age. An Ruanruan, who had only heard of the General's name in her boudoir, saw her husband for the first time on their wedding night.

When Wei Chengze returned victorious from the war, he received an imperial decree for marriage. This tough man, who had been alone for twenty-five years, now had a beautiful and delicate wife.

An Ruanruan, as her name suggested, was soft and tender all over her body. He even suspected that she would die if he pinched her even lightly, let alone doing those things in bed.

His little wife was small in every aspect, she was young, her mouth was small, and even the mouth down there was small, except for her pair of plump and huge breasts.

An Ruanruan's soft and waxy voice was filled with a hint of crying, gasping for breath between sobs, "Wuu wuu husband...you, please spare Ruanruan...my little hole and my belly are going to burst..."

Wei Chengze realized that her moaning sound was so pleasant to his ear! Even if he were to die, he would make sure he f*cked her until she couldn't cry anymore and then die on top of her!
