"I, Su Shi, and my younger brother, have come to Beijing from Meizhou to take the imperial examination. I miss the flavors of my hometown. Does your restaurant have Sichuan delicacies?"
"Yes! This restaurant is the Sichuan Restaurant!"
Ever since Wu Ming opened the door to 1056, he no longer had to worry about the restaurant's business.
...
"Wu Lou in the south of the state is the best wine shop in the capital, with more than a thousand drinkers. Everyone in the restaurant, no matter who they are, must queue up to enter. Even if one drinks alone, the cups are made of first-class glass. The fruits and vegetables are all exquisite, and cold water and tea are all refillable. They also have twice-cooked pork, fish-flavored pork shreds, and steamed pork with rice flour, all for only a hundred coins per minute."

A pure aquatic creature unable to understand others' emotions, Qingchuan Xiang quit the band she found puzzling. She was confidently enjoying her ever-changing daily life when she unexpectedly encountered a devastating blow from multiple black holes. Even free-flowing water can't escape the effects of being sucked into a black hole, right? "Hey, Tomorin, give me back my daily life!" "Xiang... can't quit the band!" An interesting experiment, a deeply romantic band journey. While on the road, perhaps we can also try visiting Qingchuan Xiang's small bar and ordering a non-alcoholic Sugar Rush.
After traveling through time for ten years, without cheats or talents, Kiyoshi Tousaka has already accepted his ordinariness, and now he has to live an ordinary life. Then he met this noble lady in a gorgeous kimono under the snow. "I need your help." That's what she said. In the rainstorm upstream, his ordinary life changed. Many years later... "Which of us is your first love?" Looking at the two girls in front of him who looked like twins, Kiyoshi Tousaka fell into a long silence. The current situation is not that he is trapped in the Shura field of twin sisters, but that his wife has become two. To be precise, these two girls are both his wives. But how can they meet? They are obviously not in the same world! "Haven't you thought of the answer yet?" "You'd better think it over before answering." Kiyoshi Tousaka rubbed his hair frantically. Can't tell the difference! I can't tell the difference at all! I can't do this question! "I choose death, why don't you just give me a knife."
(Not a plagiarist, the protagonist is an original writer) Listen, if you don't want to be stabbed by girls, you must abide by the following points: be particularly outstanding, particularly handsome, and particularly humorous. These advantages cannot be possessed anymore. You must try to avoid beautiful women, as women will only affect the speed of your sword drawing!
But what should I do if I, Hiroki Harada, have all these advantages? I am so troubled. On the way to becoming a writer, I am unknowingly surrounded by legal loli apprentices, beautiful girl samurai editors, and superstar queens?
I did everything as required but still couldn't avoid being stabbed. It seems that I didn't take enough wolfberry to nourish my kidneys. As expected, as long as my kidneys are well, I can start a harem, right?
After traveling through time, Xie Qingxuan found that the world was a little different. His online wife seemed to be the pink fairy Alicia. Kiana became his copywriter, and the happiest thing every day was to get his approval. Mei concentrated on writing code, and occasionally made him delicious food to thank him for his guidance. Bronya wanted to worship him as her master because the games he made were so great. Xier thought that her boss was the most powerful person, and it seemed that there was nothing he didn't know in this world. Xie Qingxuan's original goal was to make a few games to achieve financial freedom, but he didn't know that Alicia was actually the eldest daughter of the Fire Chasing Group. So in order to marry this rich and beautiful woman, he had to do whatever it took. "You bastard planner, he's really an orphan, he always guarantees the bottom line, I'm quitting! I'm definitely quitting." "What, the queen is coming, I'll still draw even if she heals the monsters." "Why, what did Kiana do wrong to be treated like this." "I heard that the director's game character is Otto, I just want to know when he will enter the game!" Carrying the resentment of countless players, Xie Qingxuan moved forward steadily, Honkai Impact 3, Genshin Impact, Honkai Impact 3rd, Black Myth... and this is just the beginning!
(Female A, male O, female attack)
After transforming from a delicate and slender “white young girl” of the 21st century into an alpha in an interstellar society, Jiang Yue struggled for a long time to adapt to her new identity.
For example—
Not long after her transmigration, her gender recognition hadn’t fully shifted. During her freshman year at the military academy, Jiang Yue subconsciously bought a pair of pink lace panties. Her roommates laughed meaningfully and quoted a classic line from Hong Shixian* to her.
Another example—
In her dormitory of six people, there were five male alphas and she was the only female alpha. The northern school’s bathhouse didn’t have private stalls, so to avoid her northern roommates inviting her to bathe together, she had to get up at 5 AM and sneak into the empty bathhouse to take a shower.
Yet another example—
During combat training class, Jiang Yue weakly threw a punch. The instructor scolded her in front of everyone: “Are you trying to act cute or something?”
…
…
…
…
As time passed, she gradually lost her sense of propriety.
In combat training, she could now deliver a flying kick that gave her roommate a concussion.
Her once shy and gentle heart had transformed into something as tough as polished stainless steel. She even used her 188 cm height to pin people against walls.
One day, in a fit of anger, she pinned her dorm’s military academy heartthrob against the wall, and just like that, love unexpectedly arrived.
“God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and thus, this world was graced with Jiang Yue. [doge] [doge] ”

The third year of Wanli’s reign, in spring.
The Grand Secretary Zhang Juzheng reinstated the practice of keeping the Veritable Records (Qiju Zhu), assigning the duty to the Hanlin historians on a rotating basis.
From that moment on—
Shen Nian, third-ranked Jinshi from the year Xinwei of the fifth Longqing reign, Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, Compiler at the Hanlin Court, Zhang Juzheng’s most outstanding disciple, and lifelong nemesis of the Wanli Emperor,
—thus began his career as court chronicler.
⸻
That day, the young Wanli Emperor got drunk and missed an imperial lecture.
Shen Nian straightened his back and wrote:
“His Majesty, drunk, missed the imperial lecture. The Empress Dowager and the Grand Secretary rebuked him sternly, even speaking of dethronement.”
That month, a large number of eunuchs were appointed as mining and tax commissioners, extorting wealth from the people.
Shen Nian raised his chin and wrote:
“Before the throne, I declared: ‘The disasters of monopolies and mining taxes are entirely the Emperor’s fault.’”
That year, the Wanli Emperor neither performed the suburban sacrifices, nor paid respects at ancestral temples. He refused audiences, ignored memorials, and ceased court lectures.
Shen Nian and his fellow historians cried aloud:
“Better to die speaking than live in silence. The greatest honor of a court historian is to be killed by the Emperor.”
⸻
Shen Nian said:
“I must be ill. I can’t sleep at all.
I have contracted Zhang Juzheng’s illness—the burden of holding up a collapsing sky—
but I was not destined for Zhang Juzheng’s fate.
In a daze, I saw the Grand Secretariat reduced to two people:
one drafting memorials—that was me;
one issuing imperial replies—that was also me.”
Four years after the divorce, Sun Wu ran into his ex-wife by chance, and she was holding a cute little girl in her hand.
"You have children already?"
"It's yours."
There was no complicated plot of chasing after his wife, and the two remarried soon.
Sun Wu, who was originally lying down, had to stand up at this time.
There's no other way, I need to support my family.
However, in the big city of Binhai, ordinary people cannot afford to buy a house just by working hard for a lifetime, and they also need a little bit of luck.
For example: bind a system.
With the support of the system, Sun Wu writes novels, produces animations, and makes movies...
He seems to be able to do anything.
Many years later, a reporter asked him, "Mr. Sun, what is the secret of your success?"
"It all depends on personal efforts, so don't be envious."
Sun Wu's answer was very shameless.

Chen Qi, upon entering a Japanese anime music series, once believed he would be the protagonist, that he could change the tragic destiny. Thus, by chance, he became the lyricist and composer for Crychic. Ultimately, despite his utmost dedication, believing he had done everything he could, he was unable to prevent the band's disbandment. His involvement and "efforts" even exacerbated the situation, leading to numerous conflicts and contradictions not found in the original story. The day the band disbanded, Chen Qi suddenly realized that perhaps he wasn't that special in their hearts. His forceful intervention might only lead to further upheaval, even disrupting the girls' lives and relationships. Perhaps he shouldn't have interacted with them in the first place; he should just remain a stranger. Ah, but... if I were given another chance, I'd like to tell you that I, too, would like to spend time with them sincerely, free of desires and burdens. Xiangzi: "In that case, come back soon! Didn't you say you wanted to form a professional band? I'm here to pick you up with my professional band!" Hongxia: "Aqi, can you agree to one request of mine? Form a lifelong band with us!"
