Chapter 1"As You Wish"

It was nighttime. Tonight was darker than any other night.

However, if seen carefully there was a star in the sky that seems brighter than any other stars from other night.

Black clouds were there in the sky, but those black clouds couldn't hide that star among themselves. As much as it looked beautiful, it made the night scarier and differently mysterious.

True that tonight was really different because it was the beginning to exposure of many secrets that remained hidden since a long ago. 

Amidst the thundering, Lian courtyard was so silent that even the crunch of a leaf could be counted as a nuisance. It looked like a deserted place.

Nevertheless, this was not true.

Inside the innermost room of Lian courtyard, its only source of light, a candle, was on the verge of losing its flame.

There was a bed in the mid of the room.

A man lied on that comfy bed. His face was very pale nonetheless it didn't lessen his beauty.

With a very smooth forehead, a sharp nose, a rigid jaw, he looked ethereal.

His body, from his legs to his stomach, was covered with a brown blanket. The left side of his chest was bound with many layers of white cloth. A red patch of blood could be seen above those layers of clothes.

The man seemed to be sleeping very peacefully.

Suddenly, a large wind blew outside, swaying the trees. The flickering candle got extinguished and the room lost its only source of light.

In the dark room, no one knew how a figure appeared at that instant.

The white hair from the top of his head flowed down until his waist. However, his strikingly handsome features were making him look very young. All of his clothes were of white color.

A smile lingered on his lips as he looked at the man lying on the bed.

With two or three small steps, he stood in front of the bed on which the wounded man was lying. He raised his hand and put his palm on the man's forehead.

The smile disappeared from his lips as he closed his eyes and stood there in the same position...with his palm on the man's forehead.

When he opened his eyes again, a glint of red light flashed in them for a second and he murmured

" As you wish. "

With these words, he removed his palm from the man's forehead and disappeared from the room the next moment...as of he was never there

After two minutes, there was a frown on the wounded man's forehead.

After one month and fifteen days, this was the first expression on his face.

The name of the wounded man was... Xi Ying.

------------------

Since long ago, Xi Ying could see only one thing. 

Endless darkness.

He didn't know how long it has been since the time he went unconscious due to his injury, but he was sure that a lot of it has passed already.

The time they were waiting for was coming soon. The time he couldn't waste in any situation, he was losing it in such a helpless way.

As much as he knew, his injury was not this serious. The arrow hit him in his chest, just near his heart. He would have died then and there if the archer had hit him successfully in his heart.

The archer was a very trained person. But he was fated to live that day. Since he didn't get shot in his heart, he was sure he would be saved.

However, he had never thought that things would turn like this.

Everything was going fine. He was on his way to set everything according to their plan with his shadow guards. What he didn't expect was the sudden attack.

Around twenty to thirty fighters attacked them together and all of them knew martial arts. It was fine as he and his shadow guards were able to fight with them. But there were archers hidden behind the trees. Amidst all this, when he was not focused an arrow suddenly hit him. After that, what followed was the... endless darkness.

After some days, he could feel that he was alive.

He could feel whenever his shadow guard, An Ping, or any physician came to check on him. But he couldn't open his eyes even after many tries.

He tried to move his body, but he couldn't move. His body was not listening to his mind. 

Xi Ying had never felt this helpless in his life.

He thought that after getting up from this bed, first of all, he would find the person behind this attack on them.

Like every day, An Ping came to check on him. The physician checked his pulse, cleaned his wound, and informed An Ping about no change in his condition.

But today different from everyday's routine, after An Ping left he felt one more presence in the room.

Since the person was alone, Xi Ying was not sure if he was sent by An Ping. As he remembered the last attack, Xi Ying thought that this person might be here to kill him.

In that case, he needed to save himself. When he was trying to think about what should he do, the man put his hand on Xi Ying's forehead and he couldn't think anything else. Suddenly he saw some rays of light within his closed eyes and heard three words

" As you wish ."

After all this, that endless darkness came again.

Like the light was his own hallucination.

But after a few seconds, Xi Ying suddenly found himself on his legs at a familiar place.

This place was one of the courtyards in his manor. It was surrounded by plum trees. Plum Courtyard, The most isolated courtyard in his Manor, just like a cold place.

On seeing the courtyard, Xi Ying remembered the person residing here. As he looked around himself, he found that he was in the garden area.

Hearing some movements, Xi Ying turned around only to come across a face he had not seen in four years. However, it had not changed in this long time but has become more beautiful only. Those clear and calm eyes, which once made him a fool were still the same.

And the owner of those eyes and a beautiful face was his wife, Li Rui.

The wife he despised from the depth of his heart.

last installment now serializing! just search 'The transmigrated Villainess after her fall' Add to lib and vote!!!! Thank you all!!!!!!! WARNING: MATURE CONTENT CHAPTER EXCERPT -- “Wait, someone might see.” Charlton said, recalling the glass window. “I’m prepared for that.” Serena replied as she bent to open her bag on the floor and then took out a film like looking sticker. “I found this at the market yesterday.” “I must say that I’m ill-prepared for this.” He noted as he furrowed his brows. Serena stood up and gave him the sticker. Then she placed her right hand on the bulge of his pants, directly gripping his erection. “Well, I must say that you’re not. Now, do place the sticker on the window.” — Serena Chen lived a life filled with love and success, while devoid of any hardship. So, when it was time to go, she went peacefully. However, as if fate was playing its game on her, she opened her eyes again only to discover that she has transmigrated as Serena Maxwell, the villainess in the novel "A Cinderella story in Victorian fantasy era" written by her very own granddaughter. Set in a Victorian-esque era, Serena Lilianne Maxwell was the only daughter of the Ducal house of Maxwell. She was rich, beautiful, a little haughty, and the fiancé of the crown prince. Every lady wants to be her, but sadly, the crown prince, Geoffrey, fell in love with Emily Evans, the daughter of an impoverished Baron. Seeing how young and beautiful she was again, her only thought was, since she already lived her past life as a normal decent lady, why not live as a semi-wanton lady of the era to fulfill her fantasies? Thus, she set her sights on her first target, Charlton Daniel, the only son of the duke of Suffox, cousin of the crown prince, and the original novel's second male lead. After some twists and turns, like any other sappy romantic story, the two inevitably fell in love. However, contrary to the novel's original plot, Geoffrey, the crown prince, who Serena was still politically engaged to, fell for her. It would have been less complicated if the engagement was not one ordained by the king, but it was. With this situation, what would Charlton and Serena have to do and what sacrifices must they make, to get to their happily ever after? Join them to find out. -- This novel will have romance, adventure, comedy, friendship, betrayal, politics, drama, smut, and so much more. (This will be a feast for historical drama and music lovers) Just for clarification, the world Serena transmigrated to is a Victorian-esque era so it's not exactly historically accurate. Timelines may be jumbled specially when it comes to some technological advances, but I try to keep them as realistic as possible. BTW, if anyone is curious about the age, this is more historically accurate. People in Victorian era marries on average, 26 for male, and never dropped lower than 22 for female. PS Cover art not mine, just edited by me PSS This is an original story I wrote — I also wish to thank Stephanie who made this MV for our Serena Charlton ship. If anyone’s interested, please just search in youtube: Serena charlton against all odds Or if you are geoffrey serena shipper she also made these MVs: Geoffrey & Serena part(1) Geoffrey & Serena part(2) Geoffrey & Serena part(3) and Geoffrey & Serena part (4) Thank you!!! — Volume 3 will be dark so if you dont like then just stop reading in volume 2.

Farm Girl's Manor

[Farming]+[Space]+[Heartwarming]+[Prosperity]+[Defeating Scum] Mo Yan, reduced to ashes by an explosion, was reborn in ancient times, becoming a little farm girl on the run from famine! Above her, a kind and handsome Scholar father - not bad! Below her, a lively and adorable pair of younger siblings - very good! But really, she felt like dying all over again, you know? On the run, going without food, drink, or shelter was one thing, but to always guard against bad guys who might capture her to fill their bellies was another! Luckily, her upgradable Space from the previous life followed her, but what the heck - that amazing Space with mountains, water, and meat to eat had been formatted! Faced with a desperate situation, Mo Yan reignited her fighting spirit: So what if it's formatted, I'll still make a fortune and build my wealth right at the foot of the Imperial City! Carving out mountains, planting orchards, buying shops, building houses... not one less! But... there are so many green-eyed troublemakers! Your farm is yours? Here, I'll trap you to death without discussion! Want to be my stepmom? Fine, I'll send you a bunch of widowers! Mother looking for you? Here, take the divorce papers, keep them, don't thank me! ... What? A handsome man is proposing? Uh, this... should I throw myself at him? PS: 1. Insist on farming without wavering + atypical domestic skirmish + no palace intrigue 2. The writing style is fairly serious, and values are normal (not excluding the occasional whimsy of the author) Links to completed works: [Abandoned Farm Girl: A Beautiful Countryside] Link: http://read.xxsy.net/info/527965.html [The General's Legitimate Daughter Not to be Messed With] Link: http://read.xxsy.net/info/473776.html

I’ll be honest here. I really liked this story the first time I read it. Even though I did not like Xi Ying at the beginning you eventually get to appreciate him a bit by the end. To me how he treated Li Rui was unforgivable no matter what, but I also did understand that they’re meant to be. The thing is I have read the book three times now and some things still do not set well with me till now. Whatever one may say you can’t refute the fact the Rui’s parents were not a good parents. They did not even believe her when the incident took place nor did they try to investigate what happened. Her father literally used his own daughter to protect his wife because in his eyes she was more important. He could not stand to see his wife in distress and unhappy, so he decided to sacrifice his daughter’s happiness for hers. Her mother is no better, until the end she could not even tell that most of the problems occurring in her daughters life and her family are related to her. Even Xi Ying said that she was a very stupid woman to not be able to see all of this. The emperor loving her was not her fault we all agree about that. But how could she not see that her daughter was the collateral of her naivety?? It’s because she’s how she’s that her husband dare take big measures without telling her. To me it’s like she was the real heroine of the story. All her life she got to be carefree and loved by everyone without having to worry about anything, while everybody else had to suffer and take the brunt of the stick for her to get a ressemble of happiness. I also believe that Yi Junjie deserved his chance with Rui. I know I said that Ying and Rui were meant to be, but I would have loved to see an alternate life where Rui and Junjie got a happy ending (that’s just a wishful thinking). The love of Junjie was more realistic and appealed to me a big time. He really did his best for Rui, be it before the incident, during the 4 years and after. As for Zhang Wei and Huiqin can’t say much about them. Was more engrossed in Xi-Li story. Sorry for the long rant just wanted share my thoughts.🙏

i usually do not pic historical dramas as i don't like myself to get frustrated. but i picked this one seing the tags but after reading 200 plus chapters, i understand that i was mislead. first its not rebirth, being unconscious/coma and roaming for a few months is not rebirth. i mean rebirth tag for webnovels, not literal meaning. there is no faceslapping as well. too much drama and sadness which is not my cup of tea. I was expecting face slapping so i did not expect it to be too tragic. I would like to read a mixed one, like some emotional scenes then some fun part, action etc. also the misunderstanding was dragged too much that it became annoying. because not a single character talks and leads to misunderstanding. nobody bothers to explain, especially the couple and second couple. if there is a creative misunderstanding, then it is understandable but here most of them are due miscommunication and dragged for long, still not a single thing is cleared. clearly several opportunities were there but it appeared deliberated so as to give mystery vibe. i doubt most readers will drop in the middle because of this. i because we have to wait for updates is one thing and too much dragging will lead to frustration. even while Bing reading i felt that. now pros of the novel, very nice plot and writing style is very good for except the things above. explaining of the emotions is too good and i loved it. grammar mistakes are minimal to zero in most chapters. though misunderstanding is dragged and annoying, the plot is captivating. i will buy another 50 chapters to see how it goes, because i read for entertainment and release my stress. if the sadness continues and misunderstandings are not cleared then i will drop. though its only around 10 to 20 percent, still there are a few sweet scenes. seing the writing talent of the author, I really wished to have read a more entertaining novel than sadness or at least a mixed one.
