Wyatt a young boy of 16, well built muscular body, nice hair which he changes its color steady you will never know the color of his, got dark brown eye contact, red lips, just call it a sexy looking guy lived with his rich granny who provided all he needed ever since his parents went to rest (die) which made him spoilt.

 Wyatt's grand mom Mrs cressida owns one of the richest schools in new York, Mrs cressida is a retired teacher.

 Mrs cressida made a decision of registering her grand son Wyatt in her school ROSEY GOLD HIGH, she never liked the fact that her grand son was far from her in a boarding school and she was damn tired of reports from the school authority about her grand son molesting girls.

 Alizeh is a young pretty average height girl of 15 with a shinny brown hair, brown eyes, pink lips, neatly curved hips and nice butt.

 Alizeh lives with her rich parents and lived comfortably but alizeh never showed off, you could only see richness in her crazy dress sense, her looks and the way she styles her hair.

 Alizeh attends Rosey gold high and she never had a friend if not lux her only friend who understands her mode, alizeh is a very calm girl but strict and mean.

 Alizeh having only one friend and talks to no one never stopped her from having an enemy.

 Cyrus the head of the red lipstick girls never stopped making alizeh's life miserable, because she thinks her eagle and pride will fade because of her, not until Wyatt as every girls prince charming came.

Claire Dixon is the one woman that can win a game of hiding the salami without having ever set foot in a delicatessen. It all comes down to a good imagination, an extensive collection of romance novels, and a faceless partner on the other side of a seedy internet chat room.

It's me again, Lemon Grenade. After creating the story Reincarnated into a Shingle Sea Urchin, I realized how fast I did things and how I didn't put much effort into the story. I've spent my time thoughtfully contemplating on how to improve myself this year before I came up with a new story.

I originally promised another story that involved aliens and game elements, but I got extremely lazy during that time and temporarily gave up. But I've been working on others in secret during my silence. This time I came up with one that's unique and something I'm willing to invest more time in compared to my first one which was a prototype.

This time I won't try to speed run things. I'll try to put effort into the storyline and plot. I'll try to personalize characters and put effort into them. Unlike the first time, I have a relatively good path that I plan on following. Yes, I said that for my first novel, but complications rose so I ended it prematurely.

But I won't start releasing chapters for a while. If I do, the pressure will bring up my habit of speed running things. Once I've completed a portion of it that I've deemed satisfactory, I'll start releasing chapters.

PLEASE READ (But please don't be offended with my passionate rant)
------------------
I have reasons as to why I chose the main character to be a female.
The first reason is because I feel more enthusiastic when the character I'm imagining is female.

The second reason is because I'm tired of almost all the female Wuxia/Xianxia novels that I manage to find and read. It's very hard (and rare) to find a legit cultivation novel with a female protagonist that cultivates seriously.
Almost all female cultivation novels have a main male character that goes after them. It results in a lot of romance and little cultivation. The same could be said to multiple male characters going after the single female protagonist. It just results in too much comedy and romance, with little cultivation time taken seriously.

Examples would be Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss and The Demonic King Chases His Wife. Although I've read the first to 300 and the second to 500, which isn't the whole, I stopped because of the romance. Although yes, there was a period of time where they separated, but even then, cultivation wasn't really taken seriously. 
(Correct me if this changes past what I've read. I'm kinda judging, but what I've said is mostly true for what I've read so far. So you can't blame me)

The ones that I can really appreciate are Kumo Desu Ga, Nani Ka? and The Good-For-Nothing Seventh Young Lady.
The first one has almost no romance with the female character and is all about evolving to become stronger in order to survive. 
The second does have multiple males going after her, but she takes cultivation very seriously and puts in effort to cultivate. If not, she's usually doing important business stuff or figuring out problems. She's not even in love with any of the male throughout the entire story, only friendship. It's extremely slow romance as she slowly falls for a guy that only has a soul, but has a personality that I like very much.

You can find plenty of male cultivation novels, and a lot of them are famous. Almost all of them seriously focus on cultivation; pursuing the Dao with not a lot of romance. Even the ones with female leads still do cultivation seriously even if the male protagonist falls in love.

But NO! When it's a female, the cold and dark world of cultivation suddenly becomes all happy and vibrant! It's all about the male guy! Yes, I have seen darkness and coldness in female cultivation novels like the ones above, but definitely not as much as one with a male MC. It's like the whole world has to be nicer just because the MC is a girl!

For male MC's, most of them struggle to the top. They have to work their way to advance by slaughtering enemies and using them as stepping stones in pursuit of the great Dao. They always severely injure themselves while approaching the brink of death just to survive. There's always gore, evil, and darkness that the MC has to traverse through while maintaining their sanity.

But NO! It's different for a female MC! They do struggle, but definitely not as much. Enemies are slaughtered and used as stepping stones, but I've never seen a female have a Dao they want to pursue. Yes they injure themselves, but definitely not as bloody and gory. Life or death situations are way less compared to the latter. Things are seemingly brighter with a female MC.

The best part of it all is that they're buffed with their seemingly harsh past life. Almost all female MC's in cultivation novels have OP medical skills, assassin skills, and military skills from their past life. I've never seen a female MC cult. novel where she was originally born in a cultivation world and has to work her way up. I've seen several male MC novel's like that, but no female.

Yes, I know male MC's are like that too, but not a lot of them actually have the female tropes. A good portion of them are just male MC's who are in high school or college, or just an average worker. They have to learn harsh things and go through mentally insane things. On the other hand, females are granted buffs and don't start this way out when they arrive. (Correct me if there is a female cultivation novel like that)

In conclusion, the males usually have the tough life while the females can just relate to their past life to get things done. Not to mention getting help from the leading male(s) character(s).
 
You really can't sympathize with the female MC's suffering in their past life as they usually do a brief overview of what their other worldly harsh life was like (sometimes male as well). The males usually have to go through hardships throughout the novel which immerses the reader (most of the time).

Well, as a person who believes in gender equality, this is a frustrating problem for me. I just wish there'd be more novels where the female has to suffer hardships physically and mentally like the male trope does without the buffer and external help from their lover. I also just wish the female would pursue the Dao and not crazily fall in love.

I know you're all saying, "But Lemon! Those novels are to catch readers that love romance!"
I know! But do you think all males and females like romance cultivation novels? 
"But these are all romance cultivation novels!"
Where's the action filled, Dao pursuing cultivation novels with female MC's?!
Where's the female MC's that pursue a lonely road of cultivation like the male MC's?!
I bet there's tons of female and male readers wanting more action-packed, little romance female Xianxia/Wuxia novels!

To make matters worse, they make the males personality traits very annoying to other males! Only the Seventh Young Lady has satisfactory male traits including the leading male.

Yes this all sounds sexist, but hear me out. 
I know some like the romance part, but as a person who loves action-filled novels, the romance part isn't all that big for me. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy romance ones as well, but only if the MC is a male and the romance is kept in check and not exaggerated like the female ones. Very rarely will I enjoy a male lead in a female cultivation (Seventh Young Lady).

Yes, I am using past life experience for the female MC, but that's because I'm lazy. I can understand why the others use this buff of their female MC's, but apparently it's easy for the male and not for the female.
-------------------------
Phew! I've let out enough of my pent-up emotions. Let's end this rant about inequality towards male and female MC's.

I will try to do as little romance as possible in this novel and keep cultivation serious. There will be a little, but I don't know if I'll include a handsome male lead or multiple male leads. It all depends on the direction of this novel.

Well, I hope you all enjoy this novel when I start releasing chapters. 
Lemon Grenade signing off... [Insert Radio Music]

After being assassinated on the front-lines by a friendly soldier, Zeng Xinyue stumbled upon a mysterious golden wheel in purgatory. The wheel spun and landed on a mysterious golden symbol which was imprinted on her soul as "Telekinesis". Then her soul vanished and reincarnated into a place known as the Five Heavens, where cultivation isn't a fantasy.

Xinyue was awakened with no parents. She was given average looks and no talent for cultivation. On top of that, the orphanage leader didn't like her and kicked her out as a newborn baby! How bad is this luck?!

Will she survive as a newborn baby in civilization fraught with dangers? Will she be abducted by the forces of evil? Will this be another female cultivation love story?

Romance is a very popular genre in Webnovels. The first thing that come to mind when we talk about romance are the CEO novels. Even though we don't want to admit it, they are the mainstream romance stories in the Webnovel website. 

So why do people love romance stories? I hope you find the answer while reading this chapter.

----------------------------------

FattyBai: No worries, was just a bit curious. It's always amazing seeing how the Romance genre basically dominates the site.

Parasection: and CEO stories.

FattyBai: So I was sort of curious what the demographics on the reader's sex were. But yeah, it's a fair assumption to say that the ladies rule the site, lol

WWFire: Readers gender stats r ambiguous, it is manipulatable after all.

FattyBai: Unless there's this hidden group of guys who have been starving for CEO romance novels (which would actually be funny).

Parasection: But the sacred texts.

WWFire: All I see are genderless alien. *derp emoticon*

reinesse ♥: kek.

FattyBai: How do we pull in the female readers in if we can't write a romance story? *cry emoticon*

Parasection: No choice but to write yaoi then.

WWFire: We who read these kind of fantasy novels don't live our lives correctly pal.

CailinMatthews: *ghost hug emoticon*

Parasection: Give in to the demons.

WWFire: That's why we escape reality sometimes. 

FattyBai: It's like being offered a big cake and unable to take a slice.

Zehell2218: I think male reader have their own chance and market.

FattyBai: For sure, but it'd be nice to tap into both sides.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai I think I'll make fantasy romance so I can attract both.

FattyBai: I mean, it's not a bad idea, but how do you split it up? 50% romance/50% dragon ball z?


Parasection: The fuq that sounds like an abomination.

FattyBai: It does.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai No it's 80% romance 20% action. *joy emoticon*

Noveljunky: Besides Romance, what else do females like to read?

Parasection: BL, yaoi, drama.

Zehell2218: Still BL is romance.

Anjeeriku: horror lol.

reinesse ♥: @Noveljunky xianxia I think.

Noveljunky: Mmm.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Aww, man. But then you have to develop characters and write meaningful dialogue.

Zenith: I am probably gonna f*ck up my time trying to make a romance story.

FattyBai: We like blowing stuff up and fighting baddies.

Zehell2218: cmon it will be comedy. *laugh emoticon*

Parasection: The best thing in a novel is character development humor and action romance can be on the side.

Anjeeriku: Romance can be a great sub genre.

Parasection: how does one even write romance? I don't know where to begin with that genre.

FattyBai: I'm a simple guy, I see plot and I drown it in martial arts and manly stuff. Of course, I don't know what feelings are. Can you eat them to increase your cultivation base? *think smart emoticon*

Parasection: I've never experienced romance so i'd fail the moment i'd attempt a story like that.

Zehell2218: Actually, I like to write fighting scene but without romance my reader will kill me. So...yeah I tag it as romance! *joy emoticon*

Parasection: Fight scenes are fun to write.

FattyBai: I'm trying to break through into the "Immortal lonely sperg" phase~

Zehell2218: Very sloooooowww romance.

Anjeeriku: Please no abusive ML @Zehell2218 They're disgusting. idk why women like to read them.

Zehell2218: @Anjeeriku I don't know if girls who read xianxia will read apocalypse novel too.

reinesse ♥: And an actual xianxia novel with reasonable characters.

Zehell2218: But without the romance it's bland.

reinesse ♥: Like characters, especially main character who knows how to adjust because extreme pride is not good.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Baby Dragon Truer words have not been spoken, and that scares me.

reinesse ♥: Some villains are really brainless. they can scheme, but they don't have a reasonable reason to do so

Zenith: Kek.

Zehell2218: @Zenith gramps I have idea for fantasy romance lemme tell you after I finish writing and see if it's interesting or not.

Zenith: Get the MC u desire! Yeah @Zehell2218 

FattyBai: I fear becoming a more wholesome and fleshed out human being. Please no development.

Zehell2218: @Zenith It's ok. Just want to see if people will find this good or not. *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: I think there's a formula in getting famous as a writer.

[A/N: Oh? Such formula exist? Teach me Senpai!]

Totally Not Nano: Let's debate about it. *thinking emoticon*

Parasection: The formula is write romance and you're set.

Totally Not Nano: Any genre + xxxxxxx = top 1.

Anjeeriku: Write a lot. be a slave. Lol

Elyon knew that "Romance" is not his strong point. He writes a fantasy story with romance, but he can't tell if the romance will be able to attract female readers. Out of curiosity, he asked some of his fellow authors the question "Why do you read romance stories?"

Here are their answers…

Kyosei: Because I am single. 

Reili: To fill my empty void of a love life.

Minrei: Because romance let you feel what is to be loved, plus it is universal you dont need to learn magic or cultivation in order to read.

Bajj: Due to lack of romance irl.

Murakami: I read because I enjoy the friction and conflict between the FL and ML. The insistence vs resistance is naisu.

Qin: I reads romance only for ideas and info.

VlassisBehrakis: I don't read romance novels.

[A/N: Oof I asked the wrong person.]

Elyon then  ̶a̶m̶b̶u̶s̶h̶e̶d̶ asked some readers about their opinion about romance novels.

Yin: I read romance novels because I want that kind of drama to happen to me in real life. But I know it will never happen haha.

A Certain Irresistible Meowlin: I wonder why? And I do read romance novels. Though the chance of me dropping them is also the highest out of all the genres. Every so often I come across a scene that makes me just want to squeal and fangirl. 

----------------------------------

Elyon decided to dig deeper and asked a few of his senior "romance authors" some questions about their reason for writing romance stories.

The first question is… Why did you choose to write Romance Stories?

Anjeeriku: I'm comfortable writing romance stories compared to other genres. I'm a helpless romantic person and I like novels that can invoke other people's feelings.

Bajj: First of all, I like reading romance story. It was the reason why I read books before and reading other genres comes after. All in all, due to these romance fiction books, I got the opportunity to read more great books with different genre.

MishaK: That's what I read, so write that too.

Zehell2218: Because as reader, I want to read romance novel so when I write, I write romance since my motto is I write what I want to read.

Ikazainudin: The easiest genre. Everyone can relate.

End_of_Era: It wasn't a full on Romance, it was slice of life with romance which I feel was necessary with progression of the characters.

----------------------------------


The second question… When you were making your ML and FL, did you imagine yourself as the lead of your story at any given point in time?

Anjeeriku: I would be a liar if I said no. There were instances that I'd put myself in my FL's shoes. Whenever that happens, my writing feels more passionate and truthful that sometimes it was hard to know where my fl starts and where I end. 

Shen Yi, LMD's ML was based on a person I've lost, The One That Got Away so it was sometimes hard not to self-insert whenever there were scenes that need to invoke feelings from readers. 

Bajj: I believe that every character the author was making and breathing life into it, a part of him/her is added to its character. But me imagining of being the ML/FL, never. I'm too pure for that. Kek

MishaK: Yes I did but sometimes. Otherwise you can't infuse emotions in your characters. It is important to understand your characters.

Zehell2218: Yes, I imagine myself as the lead. Of course, I tweak it a bit, such as in age and appearance. But mostly, the characteristics is similar to me.

Ikazainudin: FL and ML character based on what I want to be irl. Yup. I imagine that will be my love story.

End_of_Era: Yes, my leads had some ocassional self insertion.

----------------------------------

The third question… If you were to choose some other genre aside from romance, what would you pick?

Anjeeriku: Fantasy. I always look up to those authors who can write fantasy stories/novels well. I believe writing a fantasy novel is harder than writing romance. 

[A/N: Ahem! 10 points to Griffindor!]

Bajj: Horror/thriller/Action. Read GGGB godamnit! [Good Girl Gone Bad]

MishaK: I am writing a Fantasy romance aside from regular vanilla romance *smile emoticon*

Zehell2218: Fantasy, magical realism, fan fiction.

Ikazainudin: Psychological/horror and maybe children story.

End_of_Era: The new genre I'm writing is fantasy/violent .

----------------------------------


The fourth and final question… If you were to give a message to your beloved readers, what would it be?

Anjeeriku: I'm sorry for not being inconsistent with updates. Y'all know I love you, but a little consideration and patience as I face this rough patch in my life would be very much appreciated.

Bajj: Vote me please :* mass release comes after, deal?

[A/N: Oof!]

MishaK: Be responsible in reviewing the book you are reading. Authors love to listen from their readers. So talk to them.

Zehell2218: Beloved reader, your author here is working hard to provide your daily dose so pliz pretty pliz, read my chapter using paid SS since I don't get even a penny for free SS. 

Tips: use free SS on translation novel. The translator still get money and use paid SS on original novel so we can get a bit money to continue living *wink*

Ikazainudin: I want readers to know, that love, hope and miracles exist. Be open and value each moment of your life like the MC's did.


----------------------------------

Author's Thoughts

Hello Guys! I hope you enjoyed this chapter of WWCG. Personally, I've read a few CEO novels myself. I also read some FL stories like A Slight Smile Is Devastating (Love O2O), Hidden Marriage, Doomed to be Cannon Fodder, Transmigrator meets Reincarnator, A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor, There Is an Angel in That Church (short story), Eight Treasures Trousseau, Grabbing Your Hand, Dragging you Away, A Mistaken Marriage Match: Record of Washed Grievances…

Ai~ there's a few more that I won't add to the list because it will create a wall of text. Well anyways, the reason why I read these stories is to get an idea on "WHY" the ladies love to read them.

Let's just say that it's a unique way to see a world in the eye of a lady (if you are a man of course). When done properly, the execution of the story can capture the hearts of anyone, even male readers. I believe that no matter what gender you are, as long as you find the story interesting then it doesn't matter whether you are a guy or a gal no?

Perhaps, when I'm not too busy to write my stories, I'll once again pick a romance novel to read. Hopefully, I will find another hidden gem that will bring unexpected surprises to anyone who are lucky enough to find them.

P.S I would like to thank my fellow authors, especially my senior romance authors who answered some of my questions regarding romance novels. 

To my senior authors, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Power Stones shine warm upon your face, and Spirit Stones fall soft upon your fields. (￣▽￣)ノ

Hugo comes back like she said at 3 and half pm with her computer bag and a plastic sachet. And she finds McCallister still watching the film. She gets very happy and asks him, without even saying "hello":
-Do you like Indian movies?!
-God!! (frightened) Elizabeth, you scared me! Ouf… My heart…
-Sorry… (she puts the plastic sachet and her computer bag on the kitchen table) Do you like Indian movies?
-Actually… it's my first time I watch an Indian movie and… Did the hero just kill a man with a banana?!!
-Ah! Why everybody must insult the Indian Action?! I know it's… out of logics and physics and… Anyway, I prefer romantic movies, more than action ones.
-And so, must the "lover" sing in different countries with his love? You see him in India, then suddenly in China, and then in Egypt!
-Ah… it's an old movie… Can't you see young Amitabh Bachchan there?!
-I'm not a Bollywood fan.
-Ah, forget that. Did you eat something while I wasn't here?
-Yeah, some sandwiches.
-Hungry?
-A bit.
She gets the plastic packet and takes what's inside and shows it to Jack; two boxes of Chinese food.
-Love Chinese food?
-Yeah...
And they sit together, eating and watching another film…
After they finish, Beth tells Jack, while she's washing some dishes in the kitchen:
-I'll sleep in my bedroom, there. And about you, sleep on the sofa.
-It's kind of comfortable…
-…
-By the way, I won't be idly by watching a little girl spending money on me: tomorrow, I'll start looking for a job… again…
-Ok, but don't sing in streets again; they're dangerous. You know how much a guitar costs?
-Yeah… it's expensive.
-Good. Your blanket is on that chair. If you need me for something, just knock my bedroom's door.
She gets in her room, and wishes for McCallister a good night before closing her door…
***
On the next day, about 10 am, Hugo and McCallister are having breakfast in one of restaurants, sitting outside. Jack's reading a newspaper while Elizabeth writes something in a notebook. He asks her:
-What's that?
-A notebook.
-For what?
-I write my ideas for my novels here.
-O… what's your novels' category?
-Mostly romance.
-Like Indian movies?
-Almost.
-I don't want to break your dreams but… Indian romance is despicable, and so your novels will be.
-First, Indian romance is not despicable. Second, my novels won't be despicable: I'm finding a little problem in publishing it, but they won't be.
-Well, good luck in your novels.
-Thanks.
-A… Elizabeth… I want to tell you… Thanks, and I'm sorry to be rude with you: I mean, imagine that a stranger comes to you, insisting on helping you.
-It's ok, Jack. Everybody needs help.
McCallister smiles to Liz and comes back then to the newspaper while Hugo shuts for a while then she starts singing "tee ta ta ta tee" loudly and she gets up and stands in front of Jack, singing about help and kindness. Then she comes to some customers and takes their hands and so they stand up and each one sings about his experience in helping someone or getting helped and it had a good and big effect, like meeting the true love, or achieving the goals, a solving some troubles etc. At final, they all dance in front of McCallister who's not interested completely in them and is reading the newspaper instead. The clients still dance on tables and sing the same song with Elizabeth. Each customer shows his talent; like playing violin, or flipping etc.
Finally, they finish their dance and everybody gets back to its table. While our Eliza looks to Jack who claps and then he stands up with his newspaper and says:
-Can we come back home? Also, you're late: your university.
-Oh… Right… The lesson will begin after an hour. Let's go.
Hugo puts some money on the table. And they walk together toward the little house…

Elizabeth Hugo, a dreaming woman in her 20s, started her career as a romantic novelist 8 years ago. She met by accident an old man in a bar, called Jack McCallister, in his 60s. He's guitarist and specifically a "classic, folk, country" composer. But when Liz realized that Jack is a failed musician, she tries every time she re-meets him accidentally to help him.However, he refuses, until he finally accepts after becoming homeless. Once he gets in her life, Liz survives incredible and imaginary moments with Jack, thanks to his music, through his famous secret "Close your eyes..."

As Jessica Magiting, I wasn't fond of reading and studying at all. I would always have a "barely" passing grade when I studied in school.

The only subject I had an exceptional grade at was physical education if it wasn't obvious. Also, the character development subject.

From the start of my education, I never cared about numbers so this wasn't much of a bother to me. However, I did start to care a little bit more because when I failed an exam back in elementary, I was immediately removed from the team in a national tournament. After that, I started to do my best to pass exams. It was quite traumatizing for the seven-year-old child that loved playing volleyball.

Well, it wasn't like I didn't fully care about academics but it was more because my focus was just for sports. My brain couldn't comprehend too much useless information. Everything taught in school would just go to in one ear and out the other. Even if I forced myself to listen, I just couldn't.

So, in that sense, Jessica and Nera are basically still the same person. Just in different eras, clearly, different worlds. It's amazing now that I think about it.

But from the memories that had just returned, there was one thing that Nera had a major difference in with Jessica.

As Nera, the only thing I care about is anything that involved knighting. That's it.

But as Jessica, I had two hobbies, rather unhealthy addiction, which were volleyball and romance novels.


Romance novels.

Why?

I despised reading but romance novels became an exception. It was my past time if I wasn't playing volleyball.

When I had injured my ankle in the first year of my high school life and was forced to rest for a whole month, my friend suggested me to read.

    "Me? Read? Do you even know me?" I said with my voice shaking, audibly shocked, matched with my facial expressions.

A friend, whom I had for 6 years, was suggesting me to read.

Placing her hand on my shoulder while giving a deep, disappointed sigh.

    ["Why? You can't even do anything else right now?"]

    ["Shut up."]

    ["Pfft. Just tell me if you aren't up for the challenge."] She snickered at me, quite proudly, while crossing her arms.

She was provoking me, quite obvious now that I recall.

But at that time, the naive me was restless, uneasy, and was desperate for something to do inside my hospital room.

My pupils shook and they swiftly glared at her. She was smirking. I heaved a breath out.

    ["Oh no, Jessica. I never thought that you'd be this weak."]

    ["You're mocking me now?"]

    ["Just try it! I won't force you again if you just try reading two chapters."] Giggling, she handed me a rather thin book, compared to what she normally brings at school.

    ["Hah. Just two chapters. Seems easy enough."]


And there, I fell into her trap.

She left the book to me then came back the next day. To her surprise, even mine, I actually read past two chapters.

    ["I thought you said you didn't like reading. How are you already past 50 chapters?"] With a wide grin on her face, she closed her distance to me and crossed her arms.

Almost glared at her out of annoyance but instead, I replied grinning back.

    ["Alright, I admit it. This is pretty fun to read. It's simple and enjoyable too."]

She jumped and hugged me.

    ["I can't wait to share my recommendations! I'm not gonna let you rest!"]

Before I knew it, I got addicted to these written literature.

During that time when I was injured, I didn't have anything else to do but read novels. I still had to go to school and do schoolwork but who cares about that.

Since I couldn't go to volleyball practices right after I was discharged from the hospital, my pastime was reading romance novels.

I got hooked to them because most of them were easy reads. Some did have heavy plots, descriptive paragraphs, and lengthy pages, but most of them were cliched plotlines. Which I came to love.

Most of them were cute and adorable, and at the same time, they were cheesy and easy to make fun of.

    "Pfft. What? How could he have fallen over her even though they were so far apart? And exactly on the lips too?" I laughed loudly.

Most of what I read was stupid that it made me feel smart for the while I was reading them. I enjoyed it way too much.

    ["The bad boy trope is so stupid."]

    ["Then why are you still reading that book?"]

    ["Because it's stupid."]

    ["What's that supposed to mean?"]

    ["It's fun to read cause I love how unreal these are!"]

There were romance novels that were exceptionally good and I had fun reading them too but what I read the most was the ones with the cheesy cliched tropes. I loved reading them because it fell under the 'it's so bad that it's good' category. I loved criticizing them with my friends.

    ["Why do they react like they're gonna die from that small wound? Going to the hospital from tripping over a rock? Really?" I chuckled again. "Haaa, I love these."]

I smile as I came back to recall my novel reading days.

As Nera, I didn't have time to check out books since I was preparing to be a knight. The only things I cared about were my body, specifically my techniques and strength, and upholding the honor of our family.

But now, I have regained my precious memories.

As well as my addiction to these written works of art.

Oh god, I can't wait to read all the romance novels in this world... I wonder how many of them are here in this mansion's library?

Ah, wait a minute! I got sidetracked!

I shook my head as I realize that I was far away from my original objective. That's not the problem right now!

I'm in a novel that I read before! I'm sure of it!

I closed the books in front of me. While sighing, I closed my eyes and sat down quite violently. Leaned on the backrest of the wooden chair and let my head rest back.

I stared at the ceiling for a while with no thoughts whatsoever.

After a few minutes, my hands covered my face then I shouted. A muffled scream was heard around the library but no one was around to hear it.

How the hell did I end up here?

I am Nera mi Ponterise, the third child of the Marquess Ponterise Family. One of the founding familes and sword of the Empire. 

We pride ourselves as a family of knights. 

All my life, I've trained to become a knight, living happily as the child of this great renowned family. 

But what I didn't know is that I was reincarnated in my favorite romance novel this whole time! 

I have been living with my favorite characters and I didn't even notice! How am I going to interact with them now that I know what's going happen between their relationship?

And because this world is a romance novel, I have an arranged marriage with the Duke? I'm going to be married with this smartass jerk! I've read too much romance novels to see where this is going but will it really go that way with this guy?

How is this happening to me?

Is my life ever going to be the way I wanted it to be before I realized I was reincarnated?

Lying on the bed on his stomach, Adam hummed a small tune as he wrote the words for a new song. High on happiness, Adam had been on a roll since this morning and writing all songs he could about love and euphoria! Just then he felt a heavy weight on his back and the next moment, a few hair fell near his face. Alice nuzzled her nose into the back of his neck making him feel a little ticklish. Making his face fall forward, he let her breathe in and smiled happily. Placing her cheek in the middle of his back, Alice glided her toes over his bare calves, smiling a bit as he tried to move away without throwing her off. Finally, his foot caught her errant foot and hooking his foot behind Alice he rolled over taking her beneath him.  
The next moment, it was his toes that were gliding up and down over her calves, tickling her as she protested over this. Finally after fooling around for a bit, Alice looked up at Adam and asked, "What are you doing?"
Rubbing his nose against hers, he said, "I was writing some songs. But you are up to something naughty, Miss Alice."
Biting her lower lip, Alice grinned a bit and said " I have a list."
"A list?"
" Shopping list?"
"No! Guess!"
"Mmm, I pass!"
"Adam Perry! How can I have such a boring husband!"
Before she had even completed her teasing sentence, Adam caught her lips in a kiss and then nipped her just a bit on the lower lip, adding a bit of pain to the pleasure. "It is your fault. Your little white teeth are biting like this and distracting him. So tell me, what are you thinking in the list?"
"I have a list from all the novels that I have read! You know how I used to love reading those novels. right? So, as I read them I thought.."
"You are planning to write a new novel yourself?"
" No! Silly! First get off me! Are you not tired?"
"No, I am not! I like leaning over you like this!"
"Really, then can you do pushups like this? With me under you?"
The next moment, a big grin graced his face as he slowly moved over, pulling her along. Soon, Alice was on the ground and above her was Adam, preparing to show off some of his witness.
After about ten pushups, he finally did what Alice had wanted and kissed her on the lips," So, Mrs. Alice Perry, you are a little romantic nerd."
A kiss.
"Your list includes"
A kiss.
"All those cheesy things"
A kiss.
"that those leads do in the"
A kiss.
"novels."
A kiss.
"Am I right, Mrs. Perry?"
A kiss.
A blush gracing her face, she nodded and then raising her neck a bit kissed him the same way.
"You are absolutely right, husband mine."
The husband word from Alice made him smile widely and he continued to do a few push ups, kissing her every time he went down, teasing them both, until he finally fell sideways and pulled her into his arms.
"What else is included in your naughty list madam?"
Snuggling even closer, Alice looked at Adam with shiny eyes and started counting, "We need to go to the amusement park and sit on dangerous rides together!"
"We need to share an ice cream."
"We need to look at the moonlight and stars at a camping ground."  
"We need to hold hands and walk along the shore."
"We need to cook something together and fail miserably at it."
"You need to sing me a song but since it is your profession, I will settle for reading me a few stories!"
"We need to snuggle under a blanket and roast marshmallows."
"We need to.."
But her list was interrupted by Adam who stole the words from her with a kiss.  
"Did you read romance novels or children fairytales. Mrs. Perry, let me tell you something that romantic novels should have. "
"According to the novels, we should be making love everywhere. We should make love under the stars and the sky. We should be making love while working out. We should be making love on the beach. We should be making love when we are on the Ferris wheel. We should be making love by the pool side. In the pool. That is what romance novels are all about."
For this cheekiness, Adam received a love bite as punishment as her small teeth closed near the crook of his neck and bit down in protest," That is not romance! That is smut."
"Hmm, I don't think so. Let me do more research on this since I do not like reading much. But you remember the romance novel that you had me read last night? Do you agree that was a romance novel?"
A slight nod.
"Good. Then let me show you how the male lead wooed his partner in the novel. I am pretty sure I remember it word for word. First he took off her lcotheds, kissing every inch of the skin he exposed. And then the small triangles that covered her breasts were next to fall on the ground before his mouth slowly slipped over her stomach towards the area that was forbidden."
Scandalized, Alice tried to stop Adam from following his words and protested, "Adam! That was not there in the book!"
"Of course it was there. You can check page 182 later and you will know. Now, let me give you the demonstration. Your list has inspired me to a great extent and I have decided that since I follow the instruction of this book ,I will definitely read more such romance novels. After all how can I not support my wife whole heartedly? Now let's stop talking and begin the demonstration..."
And soon, Adam did just that as he showed the power of actions over words. A long while later, he then started to fulfilling Alice's wish list and the couple ended up sharing a double scoop of ice cream, which also ended up melting on Alice as Adam was obsessed with making everything as smutty as he could. Finally he decided he really really liked messy.. Messy Alice with her half closed eyes, swollen lips and her hair spread out on a pillow, was the best.."
This was their honeymoon period and even if they were unable to go away, they were able to cut themselves from the outside world and stay safe in their own haven.
But this period was not to last too long and was just the calm before the storm. On the second day of their self isolation, Alice heard her phone and answered the unknown number cautiously, "Hello?"
"Alice? This is Kieran?"
Alice smiled a bit at hearing his voice which caused the man who was sitting behind her to pout and sulk as he heard the other man.
"I have a good news and a bad news. What do you want to hear first?"
"Mmm.. the good news."
"The good news is that Samual Faye has finally fallen into out clutches. His was arrested this evening."
A triumphant smile graced her face as she heard this and she turned her shiny eyes to Adam who hugged her hard, sharing in her happiness, He had actually wanted to beat that man to a pulp but had refrained because of Alice. And now that he would be behind bars, the man was going to have a brawl in the prison. It was no big deal. But then Alice remembered that there was a bad news also and she asked cautiously," Kieran? What is the bad news?"
"The bad news is that Samual Faye has refused to confess while James Faye has said that he had committed all the crimes in the name of Samual Faye. We will be bringing him in for questioning and if he is able to answer all the questions regarding this then there is a chance that Samual may come out of it with a hefty penalty only. I am going to try my best to have him fall but I just thought that you should know. He has wiggle room. However we are going to do our best to keep him caught."
Nodding and already thinking of a way to push Samual into the net, even more further, Alice thought even more and finally thanked," Thank you for the warning Kieran. I owe you one for this."
The other man laughed at this and refuted, "You owe me nothing, little Al! You can thank me with a simple meal next time."
"A simple meal? I can promise you that!"
After the call was disconnected, Alice finally breathed deeply and looked at Adam as if asking for reaffirmation, " Will everything be alright, Adam? I never once expected for James Faye to be able to be so big hearted and take the blame. That man is as selfish as Samual. How did he get those fatherly feelings for Samual?"  


Alice Faye has grown up seeing her parent's farce of a marriage and does not believe in fate or even love. Tired of her father's mind games and trying to sell her off to the highest bidder so that his illegitimate son can take over the business, Alice turns the tables thus earning herself the name Ice Queen for her ruthless ways!

Synopsis :
Empires rise and fall on the Yulan Continent. Saints, immortal beings of unimaginable power, battle using spells and swords, leaving swathes of destruction in their wake. Magical beasts rule the mountains, where the brave – or the foolish – go to test their strength. Even the mighty can fall, feasted on by those stronger. The strong live like royalty; the weak strive to survive another day.

This is the world which Linley is born into. Raised in the small town of Wushan, Linley is a scion of the Baruch clan, the clan of the once-legendary Dragonblood Warriors. Their fame once shook the world, but the clan is now so decrepit that even the heirlooms of the clan have been sold off. Tasked with reclaiming the lost glory of his clan, Linley will go through countless trials and tribulations, making powerful friends but also deadly enemies.

Come witness a new legend in the making. The legend of Linley Baruch.

POSITIVE REVIEW :

CD has a very special place in my heart, which is why I'm also a bit bias towards it, being one of the first Xianxia I read.
This is an amazing piece to begin with if you're new to Xianxia, reason being that it's a complete translation, no need to wait a day, or week for a new chapter. Just binge through it all.
What really makes this one great is the relationships the MC has with different characters, which just helps flesh out the personality of the MC. This story should've been a bit longer in my opinion, to focus a bit more on certain characters, because this story suffers greatly from ignoring certain character for quite some time, until they become necessary for the story again, which is a bit sad, because many of them has been a great part of the story, until they're not. It makes it feel a bit rushed.
The world, the adventures, everything is extremely well written, it's such an amazing joy to read, and you just wish you could experience something like it while reading it, it's simply amazing. CD has its flaws, but I'm uncertain if it's because I'm bias toward it, or that it's just simply that good, that I gave it a 5/5. The non-bias part in me would like to rate it at 4/5, but in the top tier of 4s, because I feel like there's the possibility it could've been even better with more chapters, exploring characters, adventures and romance more.
UPDATE:
So I've read CD again, for the second time. Why should you read this? Because I Eat Tomatoes, the author is simply a genius at tugging at your heart strings, and making up likable characters and creating an amazing world, which shares the same universe as some of his other works. Of course reading it a second time, you notice some of the flaws.
In general all of I Eat Tomatoes works revolves around "Luck" which can be noticable in CD quite a bit, but I didn't find it overly so, except for a few cases, where luck simply is the only thing keeping the MC alive, but I can let it slide, since I can't come up with a better way of making such a rich and interesting story to begin with.
Also, the fighting becomes more or less the same at a point in the story, but the Author has still done a good job at keeping it interesting, but it does become predictable as it gets closer to the end. The most serious "flaw" this novel faces, though, is still the abandonment of characters, as most are really well written and introduced and to just forget about them is really the big flaw of CD. Getting a conclusion of what happened to some characters at the end would've been the cherry on the top for this novel.
This is still one of the best written novels out there, and I can't recommend it enough.

NEGATIVE REVIEW :

Well, where should I start.. Okay~
Coiling Dragon (Panlong) is honestly.. my first Chinese Novel. People regard their first novel as 'The one that made them read more', but it wasn't the case for me.
First, I'll start with good points of Coiling Dragon:
Spoiler
1. CD is a good novel for beginners. Unlike other Novels like ISSTH and TMW, this novel doesn't use 'Qi' or any chinese power leveling. In return, the story uses our typical Four Elements + Other Add-in to rank their powers.
2. CD has a very good initial setting. The MC, Linley is a scion of Baruch Clan, which is known for their Dragon Bloodline. He was branded as a failure after a test, but all of these changed when he acquired the *tada* Coiling Dragon Ring. There comes Grandpa Doehring. He became his teacher and taught him ways how to improve his strength and to obtain a way how to activate his Dragon Bloodline.
3. CD has a good 'Early' Romance setting. The part when Linley chose Delia over Alice is the highest point of their romance, In my Opinion.
4. For people who likes to read long novels, this is the novel for you. It is the first one of the Xianxia Genre to be fully translated. The quality of translation is good also.
5. If you like astronomically large numbers, the Author likes to give those kind of numbers.

[collapse]
The bad points of Coiling Dragon
Spoiler
1. Coiling Dragon, in a sense, has a very ridiculous PLOT ARMOR. Like IET's Novels, ALL coincidences happen to him, as if the author inserts them just to make a new objective. His Luck is way past the luck of other lucky protagonist, that you'll think his survival along the story was due to luck. Yes, he is hardworking, but much of his strength comes from luck.
2. Romance and Family setting is also ridiculous. There is a part where the MC leaves his family for almost 10 years and just to see his son and daughter grown up. Yes, he is a peerless expert, but he is a bad father.
3. Battle scenes are very annoying. If you want to describe their battle scenes, It looks like two saiyans fighting together. You won't see anything because of their very fast movement. All the audience can say is 'How fast!' and 'Such Strength!'
4. CD's plot is just confusing. Many characters are introduced, but almost the same number was forgotten.
5. In short, CD is a story with OP MC that flaunts 'MY MC's Soooo OP that...' It's that kind of story.\\

[collapse]
All in all, CD is good for new novel readers in it's early parts, but there are MUCH BETTER Novels out there in translation. If you want uninterrupted reading, this one's for you. (If you can handle the repetitivene plot of story)

My thoughts : This novel is the first novel for many veterans here. It's also my third webnovel and first full webnovel. This novel is like DBZ for webnovels outside China. This novel is a good novel for those who are new webnovel.

In my library : No (completed reading this before even this site started.)

*currently in the progress*
I'm uploading chapters as soon as I complete them. So do keep this book in your library. 

Guys, there are stats for every TRANSLATED(no original) novel on this site in the book. 

Additionally I added synopsis for every novel.

I also added one positive review, one critical review, genres and tags for every novel (collected from novelupdates site or this site)

So when you feel like not finding a novel to read, check out this book and you might find something to read.

If you are new to webnovel, then this book would definitely be a good guide to you. 

Please drop a review and vote if you like what I'm doing. Thank you.

It had been 2 weeks since classes had resumed, I had started my job in the restaurant where I had been working for 1 year at Juliana's and the Volley Ball practices had started again. 
This year was decisive for me, I hoped to have a sports scholarship to be able to go to university because if I did not have this scholarship it was goodbye to university studies. 
It was 7 p.m. and I was at the restaurant, technically, I had to finish at 6 p.m. but I had agreed to replace Louis, a stay-at-home father who is raising these three children alone. 
Someone had just arrived and he was seated at table 4 which was in my command zone that day, I took my notepad and went to the client. 
To my surprise, I saw it was Mr. Blake, out of politeness I greeted him and asked him what he wanted to order. 
"Could I have pasta bolognese and garlic bread and a glass of water with ice cubes please" 
I wrote down the order and went to give it to the chef, I went to serve him some water and see my other customers. I don't know why but I kept staring at him, and I think he had noticed, he was reading a book when I went to give him his order. 
"Good appetite sir. " I said 
I wanted to leave when I noticed the book he was reading Promises of Passion, a book by Danielle Steel, an American novelist.
 
"It's a good book." Did I say
 "Have you read it, Miss Shane?" He asked 
"Yes, I read it, but romance novels are not my genre, but otherwise it's a very good book." 
"Don't you like romance?" 
"It's not my kind of romantic stuff, whether it's novels, Valentine's Day, or anything to do with romance."
 "I'd like to know why a teenager your age doesn't like romance, but I'm afraid to get you in trouble with your boss." 
"Uh yes, I have to go." 
"Tomorrow after school, stay in class if you have time, we can discuss your point of view if you don't mind." He proposed
" Oui bien sûre Monsieur." Ai-je dis en français
Translation: Yes of course sir. Did I say in French
"Good evening Miss Shane." 
"You too, Mr. Blake."
 Since I had finished my shift, I left to change and went home.

No one chooses the person they are going to love. 

It's often said that love falls on you, and well that's what happened to Astrid and Josh. 

Josh and Astrid are different in every way, but love brought them together. 

And none of them can resist to the call for love.
