"Asshole, you're hurting me, be gentler…" "Heh, don't you like it rough?" ... Most fatally, she was wearing only a thin spaghetti-strap nightgown, revealing large swathes of lovely scenery with her damp hair draped to one side, holding a feather duster in her hand… On the bed was a man with a hood on his head, his hands and feet bound, much like a slave.

After marriage— On Valentine's Day, Han Jingnian asked, "How are we spending today?" Wrapped up in her blanket and close to falling asleep, Xia Wan'an mumbled, "Sleep." On Christmas Day, Han Jingnian asked, "How are we spending today?" With her arms around her pillow, Xia Wan'an casually replied, "Sleep." On their wedding anniversary, holding a cup of water, Han Jingnian asked, "How are we spending today?" Cozied up in bed, with sleepy eyes, Xia Wan'an looked at Han Jingnian, wary of the water he might spill on the bed. She thought for a moment, then replied, "With you... together."

Lu Wu, an aimless video game developer, had been feeling perturbed ever since he found out he was the direct descendant of a king from the underworld. Other than the title, His Excellency, his ancestor hadn't passed down anything else to him. On top of that, all of his ancestor’s subordinates had rebelled against him and completely usurped his inherited territory. Under the circumstances, Lu Wu built a battle game server with the help of his new mysterious friend and transported gamers from the real world straight to the underworld using virtual reality. They then created the main quest, the character classes, the Instance Dungeon, the storyline, and the non-player characters for the game. Relying solely on these video gamers’ strengths, Lu Wu began his expedition to reclaim his rightful inheritance. What could possibly go wrong?

Pei Yuhang finally managed to escape his identity as a Witch's Cauldron Slave, turning over a new leaf and joining the Renowned and Righteous Sects, becoming a revered and handsome Sword Immortal of his generation. He had two well-behaved and lovely female disciples and a good Dao Companion who would accompany him in his pursuit of eternal life. Pei Yuhang thought he was about to start a new life. Until his Dao Companion was grievously injured while Crossing the Tribulation, and his own Cultivation plummeted, those Fairies who had been coveting him for a long time finally revealed their fangs. Eldest Senior Sister: "Little Junior Brother, this Elixir can help Junior Sister Ye, but Junior Brother must also help Senior Sister in return~!" Female Disciple: "Master's gaze is always on Mistress. If only Mistress wasn't around..." And that Witch, who represented Pei Yuhang's past nightmare, also appeared before him. "Xiaohan, I've finally found you~" "You wouldn't want your Dao Companion to know about your unspeakable past, would you?"

I thought the masked stranger who fathered my son was a ghost of one reckless night. Then I walked into my new boss's office—and those ice-blue eyes found mine across the boardroom. Ivy Brooks only saw him once. One night. One mask. One underground auction that cost her everything—and gave her a son she'd die to protect. She never knew his name. Never saw his face. All she had were those piercing eyes behind black silk, a voice like gravel and velvet, and a secret she buried so deep she almost forgot it was there. For five years, she rebuilt her life from nothing—betrayed by her ex, abandoned by her family, raising her boy on stolen hours and stubborn hope. When she finally lands a legitimate job as Executive Assistant at Thorne Group, she thinks she's finally safe. Then she meets her new boss. Caleb Thorne. Billionaire CEO in a tailored suit. Don of the Thorne Syndicate in the shadows. A man who wears a different mask for every room he walks into—and the one who's been hunting her for five years. He doesn't recognize her face. But her eyes? Her scent? The way she flinches when he steps too close? He knows. And now that she's standing in his office—exposed, cornered, and carrying his secret—Caleb won't let her hide behind any mask. Not her professional armor. Not her single-mother walls. Not the lies that have kept them apart. He'll strip every layer until there's nothing left between them but skin, truth, and a fire neither of them ever put out.

[A Scheming Beauty Good at Flirting x a Domineering CEO, a Gentle Doctor, the Stoic Bigshot, and Twins; Male Leads Rivalry] Mia Grant stayed up all night reading a novel full of chaotic romance. Seeing an imprisonment scene in the book, she excitedly blurted out, "Please, protagonist! Let me in there to act for a couple of episodes!" After suddenly dying, she really did transmigrate into the novel, but not as the protagonist—rather, as the villainous side character. The original book didn't describe this character in detail, only mentioning that she was locked in a basement and starved to death for framing the protagonist. To survive, Mia Grant targeted the novel's several male leads and began her conquest. To the domineering CEO, she said with red-rimmed eyes, "Big Brother, the basement is so dark. Mia is so scared~" To the doctor, she cooed, "Second Brother, Mia’s chest hurts so much. Quick, have a listen." To the Stoic Bigshot, she looked innocent, "Mr. Keller, we’re in the same bed... My sister won’t be angry, will she?" To the aloof top student, she sobbed, "Am I just too stupid? I can’t compare to my sister at all!" To the puppy-dog-like boy, she blushed, "I didn’t come to watch you play! I-I was just passing by!" Having saved enough money, Mia Grant faked her death and escaped. Two months later, while she was on a tropical island flirting with eight male models, the System suddenly contacted her, "Host, I’ve finally established a connection with you! But can you tell me why all the male leads have gone mad? They even scattered your ashes into the sea!" "Forget it, you must go back and reduce their corruption levels! This world can still be saved!" "Not going." System: "A one-billion-dollar bonus!" Mia Grant whipped out her phone to contact a helicopter: "Yes, I need to leave the island. Immediately! Right now!"
