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."

Of course their fate it’s either life or death.

Xu Yang couldn’t remember how many years she had been a zombie. She wandered in the last days, self-conscious but unable to evolve.

Being a zombie didn’t bring her any change than when she was stil a human.

But the world is never fair.

When her head was cut off and the crystal nucleus in her head was removed, Xu Yang’s experience was clearly performed again in her mind, is this the rotating lantern? ——No.

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

There was a boy here who entered the school to support his beloved’s dream.

However, the boy’s ability, which he had only thought of, did not improve.

He was laughed at by the people around him, he had no friends, his lover was separated from him, and his steps stopped.

“When people fall in love and decide to choose true love, they take off their masks, break free from constraints, and with the sincerity that has quietly grown in secret, they hesitantly speak up.”... more>>

Yu Zhi Mei, a car media director, reads this sentence during a boring afternoon and finds herself unable to sleep. The person who said this is Jian Zhaowen, the founder of the social dating app “lovedate.” Jian Zhaowen, whose passion fades easily, encounters Yu Zhi Mei, someone completely outside his usual “match range,” and begins to question the algorithm and purpose of his own app. Meanwhile, “lovedate” influences those yearning for love: Ou Jinghe, unhappy in her marriage, chooses secret meetings to escape loneliness; Zheng Zeyan, who never binds himself with morality, decides to get married; Shi Rui, young but counting down her time, keeps confessing her feelings, only to be repeatedly hurt…

People fear falling in love, long for marriage, grow weary of raising children, and suppress their emotions as if love shouldn’t even be mentioned. Rationality and desire clash repeatedly, and when tired of societal constraints, they make the decision to seek true love—no matter the cost, they dive in without hesitation. <<less

Having a crush on someone and being their stand-in is a level of humiliation beyond compare. Only after seeing his white moonlight did Meng Ying realize she was a substandard substitute.... more>>

One day, she finally saw the light, understood, and let go. From then on, she became cold and indifferent, with no one catching her eye.

Under the pouring rain, Meng Ying held an umbrella and quietly watched the door.

Xu Dian, wearing a black shirt, knelt on the ground. He also quietly looked at her.

Those peach blossom eyes held deep affection, relentless.

A few minutes later, Meng Ying turned and went inside, umbrella in hand, leaving behind a slender figure.

Xu Dian, soaked to the bone, smiled and continued to kneel.

Lin Yi lived to thirty-five years old in his previous life. He became famous when he was young and was arrogant by nature. He sang and acted well. He died just as he was about to win various awards.... more>>

When he opened his eyes again, Lin Yi was in the interstellar era and has become a fragile omega that can be easily deceived and has lost their fertility.

At the Star Network press conference, a reporter cited Qin Nuo, the strongest Marshal of the Empire, as an example, contemptuously: “A low-grade omega like you can’t stand by the Marshal in this life, right?”

Lin Yi’s eyes drooped slightly, and his lips slowly opened: “Want to make a bet?” <<less

Omega Lu Zhao, known as the “Eagle of the Emperor” in military circles, married Bai Li, a retired Alpha who lost a leg.... more>>

Overnight, the Imperial Forum erupted in controversy. Countless omega cried for their idol marrying the wasteful son, and numerous Alphas gnashed their teeth in jealousy over Bai Li marrying a formidable military figure.

This marriage was no longer a bouquet of flowers in a cow dung fields, but flowers stuck on concrete – lacking not only aesthetics but also the nourishment provided by cow dung. On the wedding day, Bai Li received the title of “Empire’s Concrete.”

Fortunately, Bai Li must be the most handsome piece of concrete.

Many years later, Bai Li attended Lu Zhao’s celebration party as a family member.

Reporter: “Mr. Bai, what do you think of others saying that you’re living off your partner?”

Bai Li: “Living off someone is really delicious.”

Reporter: “Mr. Bai, how do you respond to criticism that you allow your Omega partner to work outside and even participate in mecha battles?”

Bai Li: “Living off someone is really delicious.”

Reporter: “… Mr. Bai, do you have any dignity as an Alpha?”

Bai Li: “You people, you’re just upset because you can’t enjoy living off someone like me.”

Reporter: “Mr. Lu, what do you think of others saying that you are too strong and not docile?”

Lu Zhao: “I can fight, can’t help it.”

Reporter: “Mr. Lu, how do you respond to recent accusations from the outside world about you being too prominent?”

Lu Zhao: “i can fight, can’t help it.”

Reporter: “You can do this too?”

Lu Zhao: “Well, he didn’t want to eat, but I insisted he eat.”

“For example?”

“Someone who was originally destined to die could have their fate forcibly altered, living happily ever after.”

“I don’t believe it. That’s too far-fetched. I know I’m nicknamed ‘Sweeping Star’ and have a fragile constitution, but I’ve worked hard to build strong muscles and put my all into work. Something like that won’t happen to me—I’m not going to die anytime soon.” By this point, Jiang Huan is already half-skeptical about the legend. “Are there other possibilities?... I mean, I’m already so unlucky. Shouldn’t I get some kind of benefit?”

Hae-in, who has been taking care of her sick younger sibling, receives an offer to become the daughter-in-law of the Taesung Group.

The only requirement for this position, which disregards one’s background or origins, is to marry Park Joo-hyun, the eldest grandson of Taesung Group’s Chairman Park, and conceive a child.

This obsession with descendants stems from Chairman Park having lost several close family members.

Cornered by her circumstances, Hae-in reluctantly accepts the proposal but faces fierce opposition from Joo-hyun, her future husband and senior at the same university.

“Do you even know how many people have died in this house?”

Joo-hyun’s hazel eyes darkened. They now gazed at Hae-in with an expression far more precarious than before.

People say that time dulls the pain, but it was clear that whatever he had buried deep within his heart hadn’t healed in the slightest.

“…Whether you want it or not, we’re… going to be married now… so as fellow sufferers…”

Before Hae-in could finish her trembling words, Joo-hyun tightened his grip on her chin, making it hard for her to breathe.

“…You’ve made up your mind, haven’t you?”

Joo-hyun spoke as he stared into Hae-in’s calm, sunken eyes.

“In that case, let’s see how long you can last.”

As his rough hand grabbed hold of her, Hae-in bit down on her lip. <<less

And now, Sa-hee was standing face to face with him again.

She had returned to two years ago, the night she first spent with him.

“Confusing, isn’t it? Why are you crying?”

“…I’m sorry. It’s nothing.”

“Ms. Yoon, I’m not s*upid. Don’t think you can fool me.

Are you hoping I’ll just let this slide?”

It didn’t matter how this could happen.

Sa-hee simply wanted to protect Ji-Hyuk.

To do that, she needed to change his fate—

Even if it meant helping him marry another woman instead of herself.

“Be honest with me, Ms. Yoon.

I’m asking if you regret sleeping with me.”

But with those same eyes that once dominated her,

With that same voice that made her heart race,

Ji-Hyuk bound her tightly once more.

Cruelly familiar.

“I’m not so out of my mind as to pretend nothing happened after we slept together.”

Na-yeon knew that what she was about to do was crazy. But she wanted to move forward. If she needed a deviation, she wanted to do it. She had a strange conviction that this man in front of her wouldn’t be a bad object for a deviation.

Na-yeon carefully placed her hands on his shoulders. She pushed through the dangerous pheromones emanating from this man and approached his lips. She placed her trembling lips on his red lips. Their breaths intertwined. Even though she had initiated the kiss, she felt a strong sense of pressure, as if she were being forcibly violated. She felt like an asteroid that had entered his orbit, unable to escape his gravitational pull. Should she back away before being drawn in further? Just as she was contemplating, their eyes met. He was smiling dangerously.

After being reborn at the age of 19, Su Ling vows to never repeat the mistakes of her past life. This time, she’s determined to protect her family, make a name for herself in the entertainment industry, and most importantly, avoid catching the attention of Qin Xiao—a man who once dominated her life as her obsessive lover.... more>>

Qin Xiao has a secret: he harbors a particular preference for pure, delicate beauties. And then there’s Su Ling—everything about her, from the tips of her hair to the soles of her feet, aligns perfectly with his tastes. Unfortunately for him, she despises him with every fiber of her being.

Under dim lights, as tears well up in her eyes, Qin Xiao licks the wound on his lip, staring down at her trembling form. His heart clenches.

Ryuuzen Yuki is going to kill someone.... more>>

Specifically, the three corrupt figures in the television industry who mu*dered his childhood friend. The need for revenge burns deep in Yuki’s soul. He is only able to keep sane by clinging to his three self-imposed rules for revenge:

No matter what happens, act alone.

Do not involve anyone other than your targets.

If you fail, admit your crimes without complaint.

The stage for Yuki’s revenge will be Kakuriyo Island, a small tidal island south of Kagoshima Prefecture whose population was wiped out long ago in the bizarre mass-mu*der incident known as “The Beast of Kakuriyo Island case”. Though officially solved, the Beast of Kakuriyo Island is still the subject of many unsolved mysteries, not the least of which is the sheer, inhuman brutality of the crimes.

A television production crew comes to Kakuriyo Island to film a true crime special in which Mikumo Echika, an up and coming singer-songwriter and the descendant of the island’s former head priestess, will visit her family’s former home and discuss the incident that claimed her birthright. Yuki, having infiltrated the production as an AD, plans to trap them all and kill all three of his targets on the island with his own two hands.

But his plans are derailed when his first target is slain – by something else. Burning with rage that one of the men who killed Naoko will never suffer for his crimes, Yuki vows to confront both the killer and the remaining victims.

But his new enemy isn’t a mere human. The Beast of Kakuriyo Island is very real, and if Yuki seeks to achieve his revenge, he must learn what it is, how it operates… and how he can work around it and still manage to get away with mu*der.

At seventeen, Xu Wu was taken by her mother from Jiangcheng to live in Linjing. Her mother had remarried, and her new husband had a child—a boy one year older than her. Their first meeting never happened because of a missed trip. One day, after returning home from tutoring, Xu Wu found a man leaning against the doorframe in the living room, dressed in black, exuding an air of carefree rebellion as he talked on the phone. Once he finished his call and raised his eyes to look at her, Xu Wu quietly pinched her fingers together and called him “Brother.”... more>>

Later, she learned that he wasn’t her stepbrother but his friend—Zhou Jinye, a prodigy blessed by fate. Reckless and untamed, Zhou Jinye moved through relationships like a breeze through flowers, leaving no trace behind. When asked curiously if there was anyone who caught his eye among all those women, Zhou Jinye smirked and replied nonchalantly: “She hasn’t been born yet.”

But then came that spring.

The pale cement ground darkened under rain, droplets mingling with mist and clinging to their faces. Drenched to the bone, Zhou Jinye tightly gripped her wrist, his voice hoarse: “Have you thought this through?”

________________________________________

Years later, they meet again—not just as neighbors, but also as colleagues. Zhou Jinye is now the founder of LUNAR New Energy Automobiles, adored by many and pursued relentlessly within the industry. He becomes her client. His close friends can’t help but wonder why, out of so many advertising agencies available for collaboration, he chose Xu Wu’s company specifically. Could it be lingering feelings?

With a careless flick of his wine glass, Zhou Jinye looks down pensively before responding indifferently: “Do you think that’s possible?”

What others don’t know is what happens behind closed doors—in a certain apartment bathroom where steam fills the air. There, Zhou Jinye backs her into a corner, hot water cascading over their skin, mingling with every inch of exposed flesh until their kisses leave them breathless. Before releasing her, he bites her lower lip lightly, almost punishingly, his voice rough and low: “Promise me you’ll never push me away again. Promise you’ll only love me.”

Round and round they go, endlessly drawn back to each other. For Zhou Jinye, there has always been—and will only ever be—Xu Wu. <<less

“That man is popular. He has no fantasies about love or people. I prefer casual relationships—they’re comfortable and fun.”

Ji-soo thought she wasn’t good at lying, but the subtle distortion in his usually calm expression suggested otherwise. The heavy air was broken by a monotone response.

“You have impure tastes. From now on, those tastes belong exclusively to me.”

That was the beginning of our contract.

Han Ji-soo, a contract announcer at Taesung Group, had been nursing a crush on Cha Tae-ha—her senior from college and current boss—for over ten years. During a company newsletter interview, they found themselves alone together. Amidst the sound of rain, they shared a meal, which eventually led to a deep kiss.

“I’m… I’m sorry. I panicked because it felt like everything was exposed…”

Before she could even finish her sentence, his long arms pulled her waist in close, and he hungrily claimed Joo-eun’s lips with his own. Overwhelmed by the sudden rush of heat and sensation, her wide eyes fluttered helplessly, unsure of what to do.
