1. Li Mu, a socially anxious shut-in from the modern world and a nationally protected level-one "useless person," transmigrated into an ancient romance novel. Within three seconds, she decided to become a complete recluse, feign madness, and play dumb—surviving day by day as best she could. But as time went on, the plot of the novel began to shift in strange ways. The villain turned into a ray of sunshine, the female lead got involved in political intrigue at court, and the male lead's ambition changed from seizing the throne to exploring overseas…

Li Mu: "...I swear, I didn’t do anything."

2. Everyone knew the fifth daughter of Minister Li was a fool. People said the Li family was kind-hearted for neither locking the little fool away in the courtyard nor sending her to a remote estate to fend for herself. Later, a royal decree suddenly declared the Li family's fifth daughter to be the future Princess Consort of the Regent Prince. From then on, no one dared publicly gossip about her. They only laughed in private: “A madman paired with a fool—what a perfect match.”

Later still, the Regent Prince stopped acting so outrageously and terrifyingly. Only then did the public realize something had changed. They began praying the Princess Consort would live a long life—at least longer than the Regent Prince’s.

Li Mu: "Why do I feel like people see me as the leash keeping a rabid dog tied down?"

Regent Prince: "Then my dear consort had better hold me tight. Don’t let me loose to go bite people."

Theme: One must learn to overcome hardships and be true to oneself.

Before Shen Wei's time travel, he had lived through a life of hardship and danger. Once he was born, his family was happy and carefree. He never expected it was all fake. His father's love for his mother was fake, and the marriage certificate he gave his mother was fake. He had only come to the Duke's Mansion to experience life, and Shen Wei and his brother and mother were just byproducts of that experience. That would have been fine, but this scumbag father also had a cruel and stupid wife. His brother died tragically, and his mother also passed away from illness. Shen Wei had no choice but to end up in the thorny Duke's Mansion. Forced to become a so-called concubine, trampled upon by others. Ha! It seems he can't be a good person anymore. There's nothing much to say, so let's set a small goal for now: send your family to heaven.

[Rebirth + Abuse + Sweet Love + Cool Story]

Only when Shen Tang died did he find out that his elder sister, who was the queen, was not his parents' biological daughter, but the murderer who killed his entire family.

Fortunately, God had mercy on her, and she was reborn the day before her elder sister was to get married.

In her previous life, her elder sister was afraid of being a widow, so she planned to marry her in her place. However, after the wedding plan worked, she changed her mind and made her bear the infamy of stealing her elder sister's marriage and was despised by everyone.

In this life, Shen Tang exposed his eldest sister's hypocrisy on the spot and canceled the good marriage that everyone envied, making his eldest sister regret it.

On the road to revenge, she would kill gods if she met gods, and kill Buddhas if she met Buddhas!

But unexpectedly, the man she had been avoiding came to haunt her, and she realized what she had missed in her previous life...

“Can you be useful to me?”

“I… I can be…”

The first time they met, she knelt trembling before him, begging for shelter. The slave caught his interest, and he brought her back to his palace.

She could’ve never imagined that in one night she’d go from a spoiled little slave princess of a defeated kingdom, to becoming a powerful prince’s pet.

He kept her by his side… spoiled her, cared for her, loved her, and gave her meticulous care and high status. Whatever she wished… she could do so under his name.

But, she angered him and chose to run away. He captured her within a day.

“Don’t forget, my little dearest, everything I have given you can be taken back…”

In a spur of anger, she hit him, her feeble hands striking against the flesh of his cheek. Gnashing her teeth in anger, she said, “Do you have the ability to take my child back?!”

When Imperial Grandson Liu Zhao chose his future wife, with a wave of his pen, he circled Gu Jiu’s name. He said resolutely, “I want her!”

With a decree, the emperor bestowed marriage.

One after another, everyone dropped by to congratulate Gu Jiu. Sure enough, it was her dumb luck to marry the Imperial Grandson. Facing everyone’s blessings, Gu Jiu smiled on the surface, but in her heart, she was cursing fiercely.

In her lifetime, the luckiest thing that happened to Gu Jiu was to die of illness but unexpectedly traverse to the ancient times and live a second time. And the most unfortunate thing that happened to her was meeting the Imperial Grandson Liu Zhao.

—

It was rumoured that Imperial Grandson Liu Zhao was graceful, elegant, gentle, refined, humble, polite and courteous.

Gu Jiu: Hehe!

The world was blind. That man was obviously two-faced, cunning, deceitful, treacherous, with the ambition of wild wolves and a great villain. He was like the tyrannical male lead who is written by the screenwriter to die in the finale but fans still feel distressed for him.

—

It was rumoured that the Gu family’s second daughter Gu Jiu was soft, gentle, virtuous, frail and tender.

Liu Zhao: What? Gentle, virtuous, frail and tender is all fake.

That woman was obviously aojiao, selfish, bad-tempered and narrow-minded; a little foodie with a soft and delicate body that wasn’t easy to push over.

—

The first time they met:

When Liu Zhao tried to misbehave with Gu Jiu, her mind came up with 108 ways of murdering him.

Gu Jiu defended herself, pointing at Liu Zhao and said, “You won’t do!”

Pfft!

Liu Zhao was completely defeated.

—

The second time they met:

Gu Jiu fell into the lake. Liu Zhao heroically rescued the beauty.

Gu Jiu slapped the back of his hand, “Spoiling my good deeds!”

Liu Zhao was completely defeated once again.

—

At last, there came a day when Liu Zhao married Gu Jiu back home.

The little foodie with a soft and delicate body that wasn’t easy to push over was finally locked up in his embrace.

He said lovingly, “Wife, it’s not early. Let’s enter the bridal chamber, ba.”

Gu Jiu smiled bashfully, “Husband, my body is uncomfortable. I’m afraid we cannot enter the bridal chamber tonight.”

Pfft!

Liu Zhao once again suffered 10,000 points of injury.

An engagement paper to lock one’s destiny. With her family facing financial difficulties, she marries into the family of the richest man in Qingzhou as his wife. Her Mother-In-Law’s doubtfulness; her husband’s childhood sweetheart; her mean elder sister-in-law; her narrow-minded younger sister-in-law… Being inferior, Sang Wan withdraws without a choice. As time passed, she ended up being lonely and died tragically.

Reborn on a sedan chair, how shall she proceed? Standing right at the cause of the tragedy when everything restarts, can she change her fate and find her beautiful melody?

Wen Qi Qi was just a stand-in actress who wanted to make a name for herself in the acting world. But when she opened her eyes, she became the cannon fodder ex-wife of the Regent in the book.

In order to change the ending of the tragic death, she decided to capture the regent.

The regent, who was ascetic and reserved and not close to women, looked at the women who had come up to him. He was expressionless and his voice was cold: “Stay away from this king!”

The noble ladies snickered, how could His Highness the Regent be interested in such a cheap woman as Wen Qi Qi?

Everyone was waiting to see her being abandoned.

Later at the palace banquet, looking at the woman who was a hundred thousand miles away from him, the Regent was still expressionless, but his voice was coaxing: “Qi Qi, come closer to this king.”

A group of civil and military officials: where is the so-called pure heart and soul and not close to women?

The women were looking forward to the day when Wen Qi Qi was abandoned, but instead, they watched her being spoiled by the regent all the way to the sky.

The women’s faces hurt badly.

Song Jinxiu transmigrated into the body of a peasant girl. Her s*umbag Father had taken a new wife, her Mother had been cast aside, and now Song Jinxiu was left to fend for herself while caring for her crippled Brother, young brother, frail Mother, and Meimei (Little Sister). Determined to carve out their own path, she split from the family and started anew.

With a magical space at her fingertips, she struck it rich overnight. Strategic and resourceful, she led her kin in transforming their fortunes and elevating their status.

Yet—

How could a golden-scaled dragon remain in a shallow pond?

At the first sign of wind and cloud, it would soar to the heavens!

Jiang Wanning traveled into a book.

She was reborn as the mother of the scumbag male protagonist, and helped Bai Lianhua abuse the female protagonist's wicked mother-in-law.

Thinking of his own frustration at not being able to slap someone in the book while reading, Jiang Wanning rolled up his sleeves and slapped his eldest son, who was asking to marry Bai Lianhua as his concubine. "Pa!"

The eldest son was stunned: "Mom, you hit me?"

Jiang Wanning: "You favor your concubine and kill your wife, and the one you're slapping is you!"

"?"

As soon as the second son rescued the little sister from the water, Jiang Wanning slapped him—"Pa!"

The second son was confused: "Mother?"

Jiang Wanning: "Who told you to leave your pregnant wife behind and save another woman?! I can't wake you up even with a slap!"

"?"

The youngest son took his bride forward and was about to introduce her joyfully, "Mother, A Wu is the girl who saved me on the battlefield..."

Jiang Wanning slapped him mercilessly again—"Pa!"

The younger son was confused: "Mother?"

Jiang Wanning: "Even a lifesaver can admit his mistakes. If I don't slap you, who else can I slap?"

"?"

midnight.

The Marquis held the divorce agreement, puzzled.

"Butler, I don't have a concubine, I don't have a junior sister, and I don't have a lifesaver... Why does my wife want to divorce me?"

The third branch of the Old Han family was paralyzed.

The wife fed blood to her son daily, her face as pale as a ghost. The youngest daughter was a cripple, and only the eldest daughter was somewhat pretty.

Old Madam Han wanted to trade her for food. Han Luoxue woke up to a hellish start.

Of course, she first used a scheme to split the family, even if it meant living in a haunted house!

Everyone in the village was waiting for the third branch, who had left with nothing, to starve to death. But why was their life getting better and better?

Not only did they eat chicken, duck, and wild boar meat every day, but who could tell me where they got so much grain to sell?

Later, the youngest daughter was no longer lame, Han Lao San could hunt again, the ghost-like wife became graceful and stunning, and the son, who was so thin he looked like he could drop dead at any moment, was as strong as a pony.

Even the ugly, crippled man the eldest daughter married became a handsome young man?

What? Han Luoxue’s husband ran away?

The Old Han family came again to mock them, but a luxurious and noble carriage stopped in front of Han Lao San’s door.

Hundreds of iron-blooded soldiers knelt on one knee: “Respectfully invite the Crown Princess back to the capital!”
