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.

Xiao Jin transmigrated into a melodramatic angst-filled novel as a cannon fodder side character.

A strange woman who was disabled, disguised herself as a man, and obsessed with the male lead.

None of that mattered though, because she wouldn’t survive more than three chapters.

The cannon fodder was the third prince of the current dynasty—an accomplished war hero with a fearsome reputation that spanned the empire. Enemy armies trembled at the sound of his name. He was known as the “Ghost Rakshasa.”

Yet this god of war was gravely injured and crippled, coughing up blood after taking just a few steps.

He also developed tuberculosis and hovered on the edge of death.

There was only one reason for this: it was an angst novel. The male lead was the Crown Prince, and the female lead was a fallen princess from a ruined nation.

The cannon fodder’s only role was to destroy the heroine’s country, then die beautifully.

At this moment, Xiao Jin stared at her ruined legs and the pool of blood she had just coughed up. Her mental state completely collapsed.

She kindly told the butler to prepare a coffin—she’d lie down soon.

Then the mechanical voice of a system rang out.

“Warning! Host’s life has only 48 hours remaining. Please complete the first task as soon as possible to extend your lifespan.”

“Task 1: Interrupt the wedding — forcibly marry the heroine who is about to wed the second male lead.”

“Friendly reminder: Only after completing all tasks and getting killed by the heroine, Chu Shao, will your life countdown stop and you can return to your original world.”

Xiao Jin was silent.

In her mind, she pictured a terminally ill cancer patient in a wheelchair dramatically crashing the heroine’s wedding.

“…”

Xiao Jin: “Can I choose death instead?”

System: “Nope, Host.”

⸻

After many twists and turns, Xiao Jin finally completed all the tasks.

That day, the sky was vast and clear, autumn geese flew south.

Chu Shao stepped over the corpses of cannon fodder and returned to her homeland, ascending the throne in glory.

The whole empire bowed before her.

Xiao Jin, in prison robes, sat in a wheelchair, escorted by imperial guards, looking up at the new empress.

She was content.

Everything was ready—now she just needed Chu Shao to kill her.

Empress Chu Shao, with unparalleled beauty, stood with twelve ceremonial tassels hanging from her crown. Sword in hand, she descended the steps and gazed gently at Xiao Jin.

Just when Xiao Jin thought she was about to be stabbed through the heart, Chu Shao raised her sword and slit the throat of the imperial guard beside her.

The rest of the guards turned pale and fell to their knees.

Chu Shao, hands dripping with blood, crouched in front of Xiao Jin. As though gazing up at a deity, she stared at her for a long time.

She placed the bloodied sword aside and said in a trembling voice:

“Don’t leave me.”

⸻

[IMPORTANT WARNINGS!!]

1. While the tone of the story is marked as lighthearted, some parts are definitely not.

2. Chapters 138–140 and 77–80 involve side couples and previous-generation characters. They’re melodramatic, not pure (non-virgin), and written to tie together the story’s logic—please read the author’s notes for context before purchasing.

⸻

How to Enjoy This Story:

1. This is a cathartic fantasy story set in an alternate world—historical accuracy is not the goal.

2. The female lead, Chu Shao, is a yandere and mentally unstable. The system doesn’t do much—Xiao Jin mostly survives by being awesome.

3. The ending has a twist, but it’s a happy one. Timeline explanations are in the author’s note for Chapter 175.

, she has to face:

her ex-girlfriend who may nuclear-bomb the demon world at any time.

The rookie junior sent by humans to perform the mission.

[Dual Female Leads] + [Angst] + [Happy Ending]

After transmigrating into a novel, Jin Yao discovers she has become the pitiful merman second female lead, despised by the protagonists. She gets her engagement broken off by the male lead, who then tears off her fish scales to make a dress as a gift to the female lead—just to make her smile.

So, Jin Yao immediately chooses to lie low and grow stronger, clinging tightly to the most powerful character in the entire book: a cold, blindfolded beauty!

This blindfolded cold beauty treats her very well—gives her food, a place to sleep, and even protects her from being hunted by the protagonists.

But just as she’s starting to feel secure in this shelter, the blindfolded beauty lifts her chin and says—

"The merman race is born seductive. Would you be willing to form a cultivation bond with me?”

Turns out, the cold blindfolded beauty has fallen for her too!!!

Planet Zerus — a world where the strong prey on the weak, and the strong, in turn, are hunted by those stronger still.

In this ruthless environment, every primitive insect must evolve through its own efforts—sharpening its weapons, using its wits, and struggling to survive. Those who fail will simply become stepping stones for the strong.

This is the Law of Planet Zerus.

In reality:

Zerus System

Uhaka! “Please, go hunt something else!”

Uhaka: “No! I want meat!”

Author’s note: The previous work, I’m Not the Queen of Blades!, was completed at over one million words.

The day Xu Ziran went from being a successful adult back to a short high schooler, she thought: This has got to be a conspiracy!

But someone who’s succeeded once can certainly succeed again. Xu Ziran rolled up her sleeves, ready to rebuild her business empire. The result——

[Ding——Host is too far from the target individual. Please remain within 100 meters.]

[Ding——Host, your target individual is feeling very upset. Please raise their happiness level above 50 points.]

[Ding——Host, you need rest. If you continue overexerting yourself, you will be forced into a sleep mode.]

What the hell?! Other people’s systems help them reach the pinnacle of life—why is her system just here to cause her trouble?!

In short, it’s the story of a former life winner who goes back in time, sets out to win at life again… and ends up falling in love along the way.

Important Notes for Readers:

1. As usual, this takes place in an alternate world. If there are any bugs, that’s totally normal.

2. It’s 1v1. A literary, healing-type top student × A fake-loli, cheat-code-using life winner.

3. The golden finger (cheat) sparkles brightly.

4. Updates come before midnight. Any other time is just typo corrections.

5. A slow-burn slice-of-life growth story.
