Overachiever Shen Wei traveled through time and found herself as the lowest-ranking maid in the grand residence of the Yan Prince.

The Yan Prince held a prestigious position, but his consorts were all content to live dull lives. The noble-born princess consort was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a life of monogamy; the reincarnated woman was utterly disillusioned with the Yan Prince and had given up on striving for anything; and the other timid concubines dared not make a move...

The queen of workplace competition, Shen Wei, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to outwork these unambitious slackers!

...

The Yan Prince had grown accustomed to the stagnant atmosphere in his harem, until a particularly skilled courtesan appeared.

This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.

Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.

Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...

After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"

Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"

Living is all about retirement!

The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections! <<less

Nian Nian found herself transported into a group pet novel, becoming the despised biological daughter of her foster father, who wields immense power. Her birth was steeped in conspiracy, a bloodline tainted by a wicked family.

In the original story, due to jealousy over the female lead effortlessly receiving all the affection, she commits a grave mistake, provoking her furious father to expel her from the Ji family. Eventually, she is treacherously plotted against by the male lead and dies a tragic death.

Nian Nian thinks: Who says this book is old? The plot is fantastic, with excitement hitting the roof!

To survive, she decides to cling to the unpredictable and temperamental father's thigh. When the female lead arrives, whoever wants to be the Ji family's eldest daughter can have it; she's saving up to run away.

Under Nian Nian's influence, the cold-hearted father learns to love, the future male lead who was supposed to have eight children with the female lead becomes indifferent, and even a future major antagonist is willing to be the third wheel, humbly submitting for love.

For the sake of his unrequited love, his ex-girlfriend abandoned him at the altar, indirectly causing the death of his parents.

Just when he thought his life was plunged into darkness, a clueless yet beautiful girl unexpectedly took him in.

Looking back, he realized how many hidden gems had always been by his side.

A childhood friend who had secretly loved him for over a decade, a stunning but socially clueless school beauty, a mischievous and playful girl who lived for chaos...

His ex, filled with regret, pleaded: "I was wrong—can we go back to how things were?"

Before he could respond, the girl stepped in front of Ye Shuang and coldly declared,

"If you didn’t cherish him, then he’s mine now."

"Wouldn’t we know if we could be a real married couple... if we did it?"... more>>

At that single remark from her friend, Shirley faltered.

After all, she was already struggling with the question of whether she and Damian, her fated fiancé since birth, could ever truly become a ‘real married couple’ rather than just friends.

"Of course, we’ll become husband and wife."

Her kind and gentle fiancé would always say frustratingly naive things, completely unaware of her inner turmoil.

"Then break off the engagement."

Her family gave her the chance to decide.

"So, you’re saying your fiancé doesn’t feel like a man to you?"

This man, who she didn’t even know, pierced through Shirley’s hesitations with startling clarity.

One sweltering summer night, while she lay asleep in her room, someone came to her.

"Let’s do something fun, Shirley."

Creak.

The bed dipped as someone sat down on one side.

"Something fun…?"

"Yeah, something fun."

Was it just her imagination, or was his voice filled with an intense heat?

"And what would that be?"

"You’ll like it, Shirley. I’m sure of it."

The hand that slid along her pale leg, illuminated by the moonlight, carried an unmistakable danger.

"What?"
"Whether we can or can’t, we’ll find out once we spend the night together."
The voice whispering in her ear sent a shiver through Shirley’s body.
"Show me that pretty thing." <<less

Due to health reasons, Shi Qi's family hopes he will fall in love with a highly compatible Alpha and ideally get married as soon as possible. However, Shi Qi turns a deaf ear to their wishes, finding all Alphas utterly boring.... more>>

That is, until recently, when he meets an intriguing Alpha who starts to change his mind. This Alpha’s pheromones smell particularly pleasant, he is good-looking, and, thanks to a certain part-time job, especially skilled at coaxing people.

To deal with his family’s constant pressure and indulge a small selfish reason, Shi Qi decides to ask the Alpha to pretend to be his boyfriend.

-

Shang Sui encounters an Omega he once met in childhood. Back then, Shi Qi had leaned against his windowsill and declared that he would marry him when he grew up, only to vanish without a trace and completely forget about him.

Now reunited, Shi Qi mistakes Shang Sui for a chat companion who uses pheromones to please clients. Strangely enough, Shang Sui goes along with it, unwittingly pulling off a full performance.

Apparently satisfied with his “service,” Shi Qi gets closer to him and even asks if he would be willing to pretend to be his boyfriend.

"All right, but don’t forget this time." Facing Shi Qi’s slightly puzzled gaze, Shang Sui says with a smile.

But He Lindi was dazzling, popular, and utterly unaware of Chi Yue’s existence, let alone her feelings.

So Chi Yue shifted her sights to another girl she secretly admired. Yet before she could make a move, she witnessed He Lindi embracing the sweet, quiet girl Chi Yue had just set her heart on—laughing, intimate, and radiant.

Chi Yue: What the hell is love anyway? Where’s my knife?

Everyone at Xinyue Company knows Chi Yue despises He Lindi from the upstairs firm. When asked why, her answer never changes—

“It’s just that weird magnetic field between women. I can’t stand the sight of He Lindi. Got a problem with that? Don’t make a fuss.”

Until one weekend, a colleague visits Chi Yue’s apartment to retrieve something.

The door opens to reveal He Lindi, her neck adorned with unmistakable strawberry marks.

Sang Lu has awakened.

In the original storyline, she was the villainous sister-in-law of a wealthy family—disdaining her mute husband, colluding with greedy relatives to embezzle the family fortune, and committing every evil deed imaginable.

Her husband ignored her. Her brothers-in-law slapped her. Her ending was tragic.

“Wait… so I’m the big idiot here?”

Absolutely not.

Her dreams are simple: safety and riches!

As long as she avoids becoming everyone’s least favorite person, her dreams are within reach~

She stays up all night drafting a Survival Guide:

★ Bring her arranged-marriage husband some calming herbal tea—his insomnia might slow down her money-counting speed.

★ Catch the brother-in-law’s swinging hand mid-slap: “Try that again and I’ll knock your head into orbit!”

★ Attend a high-society gala arm-in-arm with her husband: “My husband’s voice? Oh, it lives on my lips~”

Six months later—

The arrogant second brother races over on his motorcycle: “Big Sis, scold me again, please!”

The brooding third brother glares into the camera: “Anyone who messes with my sister-in-law answers to me first.”

The family patriarch, warm and blunt, shoves a stack of documents into her hands.

Qi An'an transmigrated into a wildly popular novel full of male protagonist angst.... more>>

In the novel, the male protagonist, Jiang Lu, is a stunningly beautiful and pitiful figure whose immense popularity stems from his tragic charm. Due to his lowly background, he had endured countless cold stares, and his exquisite appearance had become a shameful mark. During the dark years when he was crippled and abandoned by all, only the female protagonist had ever shown him a sliver of kindness.

The novel's fans unanimously believed that the tragic love stemmed from the female protagonist's actions. However, Qi An'an, who had been a diehard fan— a self-proclaimed mother fan who loved both the male and female protagonists dearly— firmly believed that all blame lay with the poisonous and wicked villainess!

And Qi An'an…… had transmigrated into the novel as that very villainess.

The villainess met an unimaginably tragic end. In her youth, she had fallen hopelessly in love with Jiang Lu but, unable to obtain him, had lashed out in a twisted act of revenge, utterly ruining his life. In the end, Jiang Lu rose to power as a dazzling new titan of the business world and repaid every humiliation he had suffered— with interest.

As a loyal mother fan who shipped the main couple, Qi An'an naturally chose to tear apart her original role.

──Baby! Mommy is here! I won't let anyone hurt you! You just focus on falling in love properly! Make it sweet, alright!

Relying on her identity as a wealthy heiress, Qi Anan played her role as a 'mother' to perfection, showering Jiang Lu with endless love and care, raising him to be gentle, pure, and heartbreakingly sweet boy. The number one good boy in the world!

After countless days of anticipation, the female protagonist finally appeared.

Qi An'an hid in a corner, clutching her camera to secretly fangirl over her favorite couple.

──They're here! They're here! It's official! Lock it in! Hurry! Wall slam and kiss! Mommy's going to record your most beautiful moment!

However, when Jiang Lu faced the female protagonist, he seemed like a completely different person. His dark eyes were filled with chilling hostility as he said, "I warned you long ago. Stay far away from me. Compared to her, you're not even worthy." <<less

Song Shihuan was reborn.

In her past life, despite being the legitimate daughter of the Crown Prince, she had been lost for ten years. After being recognized, she bent over backward to please her family, groveling for even a shred of affection.

But what did it get her?

The Crown Prince and his consort saw her as a disgrace. Her three elder brothers treated her with cold indifference. In the end, she died at the hands of her own twin sister—the favored legitimate daughter—and perished with bitter resentment.

Granted a second chance by fate, she found herself back on the day she was recognized by the royal family. At this moment, the Eastern Palace was doing everything in its power to rid itself of her, the "stain."

With icy calm in her eyes, Song Shihuan seized the opportunity to muddy the waters—and chose the notorious playboy Prince Qin as her father instead.

The crowd was stunned.

Prince Qin was not only a good-for-nothing but also the Crown Prince’s sworn enemy, a rivalry known throughout the realm. Was this girl out of her mind?

Yet Song Shihuan merely lifted her gaze to Prince Qin. A sworn enemy? Perfect.

This father was moldable.

...

From that day on, the disreputable Prince Qin gained a ten-year-old daughter.

When the Eastern Palace mocked Prince Qin for his lack of ambition, he suddenly buried himself in books and began studying diligently.

When the Eastern Palace accused Prince Qin of having a chaotic household, he swiftly cleaned house and disciplined his unruly servants.

When the Eastern Palace—wait, what? The Eastern Palace was gone!

Song Shihuan stared expressionlessly at Prince Qin, now clad in imperial robes.

Good heavens… she had actually raised her playboy father into an emperor! <<less

Fortunately, her system account had come along with her, and the skill books and equipment in her inventory were still intact.

However, there was a bug in her account information.

Year after year, Yan Luoyue watched as her health bar grew infinitely longer.

Every year on her birthday, an extra zero was added to her health bar.

In the first year after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue used all her divine artifacts to ensure her fragile self wouldn’t choke to death on her own saliva.

By the tenth year, she removed all her equipment and casually strolled through the forbidden grounds of her clan.

The sealed demons and monsters surrounded her, hacking away for three days and three nights, until they collapsed, foaming at the mouth.

A hundred years after her transmigration, Yan Luoyue looked up and realized her health bar now spanned the entire continent.

Someone once asked Demon Venerable Yan, "Does being invincible make you lonely?"

Yan Luoyue kindly replied, "Silly child, how could being invincible be lonely? It’s absolutely amazing."

Synopsis Two:

Wu Manshuang was covered in poison, the last of the Teng Serpent (celestial serpent) lineage in the world.

The closer anyone got to him, the deeper the poison would affect them.

So, Wu Manshuang wrapped himself up tightly. He hid in a pitch-black cloak, avoiding all living beings. He thought his life would pass in solitude, until—

A young girl’s slender, warm hand touched his cheek.

"Your health-draining debuff is pretty strong, huh?"

Wu Manshuang quickly pushed her hand away. "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

"Relax," the girl said with a carefree smile. "I’m way stronger than you."

From then on, the little serpent gently coiled around the turtle’s shell.

And then…

The world gained the divine beast Xuanwu.

This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game.

The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions.

However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game.

Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw!

To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards.

For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure.

Worried about characters losing affection points? No need.

With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back.

It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers.

However...

Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game.

His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes.

Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls."

Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes...

The type who will kill you if they can't have you...

Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left.

"I really just want to survive..."

Shen Que had two secrets.... more>>

First, he was mute—and also had a hidden medical condition that couldn’t be exposed.

Second, he harbored inappropriate, secret feelings for his lord.

He told no one about either secret. But one night, a stranger discovered the first one.

That man used Shen Que’s secret to coerce him, pushing him step by step into submission, into falling further and further…

And yet, Shen Que never noticed—this man was taking more and more from him, while his own prince was giving him more and more attention.

Then, one day… Shen Que discovered he was pregnant. Panicked, he fled in the dead of night, not even bothering to pack.

—

Xie Shiguan discovered a secret about his trusted bodyguard—and it hooked him, haunted him.

Every night he dreamed of the little mute man.

So he disguised himself, altered his appearance, placed a needle in his throat to suppress his voice, and infiltrated Shen Que’s quarters.

At first, he only wanted a taste of the mute beauty.

He wanted the thrill of bullying someone honest and obedient—like a loyal hound.

Just a plaything. Once bored or soiled, he could throw him away anytime.

But then… Shen Que ran.

Xie Shiguan was furious. He mobilized all of the prince’s forces to find him. But the final report said, “Shen Que fell into the river during his escape. He drowned.”

He was just a mute… just an object. So why did his heart ache like this?

He refused to believe it. As long as Shen Que’s body wasn’t found, he would not believe he was dead.

—

One year later, the regent prince heard of a villager in the south who looked a lot like Shen Que. He raced through the day and night, exhausting several horses, and finally—by a mountain stream—he saw him.

That little mute was carrying a bamboo basket on his back, and in his arms… a soft, tender-skinned child.
