Song Zhijin worked herself dizzy and fainted from hunger. In a stroke of misfortune, she fell into a river—and was reborn more than ten years into the past.

The good news: she’s now strong, beautiful, and young—she has all the advantages of youth!

The bad news: her family is bankrupt, and the canary she ghosted and dumped in her previous life has come clinging back!

That face she used to love to death now corners her against the wall. One hand lifts her chin, eyes misty, voice pressing hard:

“Jiejie, why did you abandon me?”

Startled out of her wits, Song Zhijin reflexively slaps her.

But instead of getting angry, Jiang Lian lowers her gaze with a soft smile, pressing her cheek into Song Zhijin’s palm, voice full of tender sweetness:

“Jiejie, if you’re angry… it means you still care about me.”

—

As she cautiously mends their delicate, on-thin-ice relationship, Song Zhijin finally becomes Jiang Lian’s girlfriend.

But one morning, Jiang Lian suddenly wakes up—with the memories from ten years in the future restored.

Panicked, Song Zhijin turns to the internet for help:

Help! My ex-girlfriend lost her memory and we got back together… but now she suddenly remembers why I dumped her in the first place! What do I do? Asking online—urgent!

Replies (99+):

“OP… you’re on your own. Good luck!”

Ling Yu loves Gu Qing, and everyone knows that her love is both cheap and foolish.

She treats herself like a stone under Gu Qing’s feet, moving wherever needed.

On graduation day, it rained heavily.

Ling Yu’s hands were frozen red, pitifully holding a hundred balloons, rushing into the auditorium.

In the crowd, Gu Qing appeared mature and alluring, her curves accentuated by the bachelor’s gown. She was surrounded by a group of boys and girls vying to confess their feelings to her.

Ling Yu called out to her: “Gu Qing…”

Gu Qing’s eyes were filled with disgust as she stared at her wet body, her tone laced with hidden anger: “Is this amusing? Ling Yu, I could never possibly like women.”

The auditorium was silent as a tomb; everyone thought Ling Yu would force a smile and shamelessly cling to Gu Qing.

However, no one heard it. In Ling Yu’s mind, the system prompt sounded: [Congratulations, host. The female supporting character’s plotline has been completed. Task reward: Natural Death.]

After Ling Yu completely disappeared from Gu Qing’s world.

One time at a bar, a friend asked Ling Yu, “If you liked a woman as cold and elegant as Gu Qing, would you find everyone else dull in comparison?”

“Liked?” Ling Yu casually swirled her wine glass, her tone nonchalant: “Having liked a stingy straight girl? I’ll let you know once I fall for her…”

That night, the fragmented, colorful lights of the bar danced across Ling Yu’s face. She was surrounded by admirers, living life to the fullest.

Gu Qing sat in the adjacent booth, clenching her fists tightly.

[Dual Female Leads + Time Travel + Crazy/Unhinged + Coercion + Rebellion + Super Sweet Later On]

A cold, unhinged, and mature heiress & a pure and unique sweet university girl, Lin Wei:

"Student Mi, you can't escape!"

Mi Yuan: "Teacher Lin, you can't catch me!"

Lin Wei encounters Mi Yuan by chance while acting as a designated driver. She lures her into her home, and from then on, things spiral out of control.

Mi Yuan wants to break free from the control of the crazy Lin Wei, but Lin Wei refuses to let go.

Yet, as the chase continues… it unexpectedly turns into true love!

The Arrogant Noble Lady × The Sickly and Twisted Supporting Female Character

One day, Lou Wu transmigrated into a novel and was bound to a system with the mission of saving the sickly, twisted supporting character.

A yandere?! That’s the kind of high-difficulty mission where one wrong step could cost you your life!

But no worries—Lou Wu was very confident in her ability to win people over.

Just as she was preparing to make her grand move and rescue the supporting character from danger… she was dumbfounded.

She looked down—and saw the yandere girl kneeling at her feet, while she herself held a glass of red wine in her hand!

Aaaah! What kind of person transmigrates at this point in the story?!

Left with no choice, Lou Wu used kindness to slowly shatter all of Shen Songyue’s schemes. But in order to avoid breaking character, she had to play the part of the “vicious woman” while gradually melting Shen Songyue’s heart.

Before binding with the system, Gu Xia was a vicious female cannon fodder—so vicious it was off the charts. She did all the terrible things to bully the heroine!

But after binding with the “Vicious Cannon Fodder Self-Rescue System,” Gu Xia awakened!

She stopped doing the self-destructive things that came with bullying the heroine and had a complete change of heart:

When the heroine got caught in the rain, she held an umbrella for her;

When the heroine was in trouble, she rushed to the rescue;

When the heroine was tired, she offered her a pillow!

When the real heiress heroine was found by her wealthy family and brought back to the noble house, Gu Xia let out a long sigh of relief.

She had finally escaped the tragic fate that awaited every cannon fodder character: ruined family, destroyed reputation, and even getting “boxed” (killed off) and chopped into pieces by the male lead!

However, just when Gu Xia thought she was safe, the heroine—now returned to her rightful identity as the wealthy family’s heiress—came to find her.

She pulled out a diamond ring and proposed.

“Gu Xia, I’ve always liked you,” the heroine confessed deeply.

…Wait a minute, something’s not right!

Why did the heroine fall in love with her?!

“My name is Luo Ling.”

“I’m just an ordinary high school student.”

“I always thought so, until one day… I got sick.”

“After getting sick, the world seemed to become a little different…”

The girl muttered to herself, standing before a grotesque being that was only half there. In her hand, she held the other half of the grotesque being, slowly bringing it to her mouth.

Grotesque beings disguised as humans are running rampant, flesh-eating demons cry out in anguish, and a mournful songstress chants softly, awakening something dormant in the void.

“No one can escape this.”

“No… one.”

Lan Feng was summoned to a strange world by a terminally ill little girl's wish. Forced to accept a bargain, he must live on in her place.

She was reborn, but the price was to fulfill the girl's last wish. She experienced new things the girl hadn't experienced before, like making friends.

But she was first approached by a pink-haired, yandere little girl.

"Lan Feng, be my only one, okay?"

She then made many friends, but they didn't seem human.

Loli Mom: Mom doesn't approve. Want a hug?

Dark Loli: Lan Feng, fight me for five hundred rounds!

[Dual Female Leads / Double Madness / 1v1 / Pseudo-Sisters / Main Gong / OE]

[Not Biological Sisters]

Ji Xiangjue never expected that just as she decided to end her own life, she would inexplicably transmigrate into a strange world. And if she didn't protect this noblewoman, she would also die. Thus, she was forced onto the path of acknowledging a "younger sister" and taking care of her.

But who could have known that this pure sisterly bond would gradually begin to mutate...

“A-jie*, everyone says you don’t love me—but I don’t believe it.”

“That’s the truth. Why wouldn’t you believe it?”

“There’s only one possibility: you love me.”

Ji Xiangjue threw her to the ground, face indifferent. “I’m your A-jie.”

Jian Chuxun gave a wretched smile. “Can’t an older sister love too?”

“Ji Xiangjue, sooner or later, you’ll fall in love with me—just like I love you.”

*Note: "A-jie" is an affectionate term for older sister in Chinese.

Set in an alternate ancient world with no system. Don’t overthink the plot logic. This is a brain-off story.

Ji Xiangjue is pure madness; Jian Chuxun is driven mad by love.

Sweet story teaser:

I have never had emotions, nor have I ever known love.

I’ve loathed this world countless times.

I firmly believed no one could shake my truth.

But you... you are the only one who exists outside my order.

—Ji Xiangjue

Reborn into an excessively derivative Tokyo urban supernatural game, Natsuba Hanae gradually realizes she’s the second daughter of the Natsuba conglomerate from the original story. She’s that character: stunningly beautiful, utterly useless in combat, the ultimate flower vase. And a sacrificial lamb, destined to marry a fifty-year-old geezer upon reaching adulthood!

To save herself, Natsuba Hanae rises up in defiance, embracing her villainous side, and laying down schemes from a young age.

However, the limitations of having no supernatural abilities are too great. Just when she feels overwhelmed and powerless…

A cheat she created for this very game in her past life appears in her mind.

Natsuba Hanae: “Yessss!!”

[Thousand Faces Simulator Activated]

[You can now role-play as yokai, gods, and more]

[You have drawn the A-rank role-playing template – Ubume!]

Natsuba Hanae: “…”

How am I supposed to do that? Give birth to them?

When Ying Xu wakes up, she finds herself transmigrated into the body of the substitute Alpha lover of film queen Gu Qingzhu. She has only one mission: make Gu Qingzhu fall in love with her.

Gu Qingzhu is aloof and dignified in public, cold and proud. But in front of Ying Xu, her emotions fluctuate wildly. After every time they’re intimate, she always asks:

“Why?”

“Why is it you who lived... and not my sister?”

Gu Qingzhu’s childhood sweetheart—her deceased older sister—never smiled. So Gu Qingzhu demands Ying Xu must never smile in front of anyone.

Gu Qingzhu has a strong desire for control, so Ying Xu must stay by her side at all times.

No matter what Gu Qingzhu goes through, Ying Xu is the only outlet for her to vent.

In order to complete her mission, Ying Xu tolerates everything from Gu Qingzhu.

She’s kind to her, tender and considerate, protects her no matter what. Even if the whole internet curses her, Ying Xu does not waver—she plays the role of the perfect lover, neither too aggressive nor too distant.

When Gu Qingzhu’s illness flares up, Ying Xu rushes to her side, providing her with comfort and security.

When Gu Qingzhu is injured, Ying Xu carves the same wound onto her own arm.

No matter how Gu Qingzhu hurts her, Ying Xu only calmly says:

“I won’t blame you.”

Gu Qingzhu used to think she hated Ying Xu the most.

To her, Ying Xu was cold and calculating, and any display of innocence was just poorly acted. Every time she saw the woman blush, it disgusted her.

But at some point, Gu Qingzhu started looking forward to Ying Xu approaching her, clinging to her—she started longing for hand-holding, hugs, and even a shy kiss.

With Ying Xu by her side, Gu Qingzhu went back to see the therapist she had always resisted.

She began taking care of her health, traveling the world, even feeding kittens she used to fear.

And all of this... was because of Ying Xu.

Just as Gu Qingzhu was beginning to hate herself for craving tenderness she couldn’t control, letting Ying Xu take over her life—

The system notified Ying Xu that her mission was complete.

She could now choose how she wanted to die and leave this world.

Ying Xu chose—

to take a knife for Gu Qingzhu and die in front of her.

As she saw Gu Qingzhu’s face contorted in horror, Ying Xu sneered for the first time in front of her.

“Now I’m dead too. Between two corpses…

Who do you think mattered more?”
