bodies in the river

Su Ziyu has a golden hourglass of time. Every time the sand runs out, Su will be transported to a different world.

Before time travel, Su Mu worked as a reservoir guard. Life was easy—stable benefits, daily fishing, and not a care in the world. Until one day, during a wild fishing trip, he accidentally touched a high-voltage line... And woke up in another world. After time travel, am I still guarding a reservoir? Wait—this doesn’t look like a reservoir at all?! It's the River of Time.

By day, Joon-ho runs a discreet, high-end massage clinic in Seoul, specializing in pain relief and body alignment. But behind the soundproof doors, his true gift lies in reading the deepest cravings of the women who walk through his door—and giving their bodies exactly what they need. From overworked executives to national celebrities, no woman leaves untouched—or unchanged. When Harin, his former campus crush turned office worker, reenters his life, one night of pleasure turns into something far more dangerous: connection, obsession, and a partnership that blurs every boundary between business, pleasure, and possession. Now, she’s not just in his bed. She’s in his clinic. His lap. His world. And she wants to watch everything.

Jian Tian transmigrated into a Mary Sue school novel and became the cannon fodder female supporting character. Although she is cannon fodder, her entire family is full of villains. The villainous eldest brother opposes the male lead and leads the company to bankruptcy. The villainous second brother opposes the female lead and ends up with crippled legs. The villainous third brother is a love-struck fool and ends up on the streets. And she has it worse, being implicated and sent to prison. Why should she be the only cannon fodder in a family of villains? She wants to turn the tables! She wants to rise! However, just as she ignites her fighting spirit, she discovers she’s bound to a system that will obliterate her soul if she doesn't slack off. Jian Tian: "..." Lies down. And she even persuades her whole family to slack off collectively. Seeing the eldest brother working overtime at the company: "Stop working overtime; after all, the company won't be yours in the end! Trust me, first lose 1 billion!" Seeing the second brother busy with his medical career: "Don't work too hard, after all, you're ultimately making wedding dresses for others. Why not research a cure for crippled legs instead?" Seeing the third brother running errands for the female lead: "Isn't being a happy bachelor nice? Why must you suffer for love? Wake up, licking the boots will get you nothing in the end!" The three brothers of the Ji family: "..." Has our little sister gone crazy? Later, after experiencing the joy of slacking, the three brothers: "Hmm, this is nice..." However... We agreed to slack off together, so how did you quietly become a top boss?! Jian Tian awkwardly scratches her head: "There’s too much development in my field; I can't help it." And the dark villain lurking in the shadows, aggressively wrapping his arms around her waist: "Hmm? How about including me too?" Jian Tian: "..." Don’t come near me!

This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition and the early world and character building, BUT everything kicks into gear after the turning point in the latter half of Volume 1, and especially Volume 2, where the tone of the novel shifts.

Mo Yu transmigrated from the end of the world into the body of a cannon-fodder female supporting character in a novel about a rich family. In the original novel, Mo Yu was the real young lady who lived in a village as a kid. Meanwhile, the fake young lady, Mo Xue, who lived as the young lady of the Mo family, had a baby with the strongest business mogul in the novel, Gu Lian. For that reason, other young ladies were always envious of her. However, Gu Lian entered a state of coma due to an accident. As the cannon fodder in the novel, she was responsible for serving the female lead. On top of that, she didn't even experience a single good day. When her rich family found her in the village where she lived, she was forced to marry a comatose man as soon as she returned with them. She felt deeply twisted. On most days, she would torture her unconscious husband to vent. However, by now, Gu Lian had actually regained consciousness. He would wake up anytime now, and the first thing he wanted to do was to annihilate Mo Yu, the evil female supporting character. Mo Yu looked at the needle in her hand, which she was prepared to torture Gu Lian with, while she thought about how to survive. However, she realized she had swapped souls with her comatose husband! She could actually initiate soul-swapping with another person! Gu Lian looked at Mo Yu, who was in his unconscious body, and smiled devilishly. "How does it feel?" "This bed feels very comfortable. I'm willing to switch places with you. You can have the freedom!" Mo Yu exclaimed. "Huh?" Gu Lian was confused. After occupying Mo Yu's body, Gu Lian realized that Mo Xue, who seemed gentle and elegant at first, was full of evil. His father-in-law and mother-in-law were also cunning folks. Those who behaved kindly toward him all showed their ugly sides in front of Mo Yu. On the contrary, the wife he thought was cunning and evil was the kindest of them all.
