His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

After a delirious first night together, Shi Guang found herself waking up to a cruel reality… a breakup initiated by him, ending their relationship! What? Why? How? These were the questions that bugged Shi Guang’s mind in the two years after he left without a trace. Just as she thought that she had finally managed to get over him, Lu Yanchen suddenly appeared before her and before she knew it, she had to get married to this man who had dumped her two years ago?! What? Why? How? These were the questions that Shi Guang were faced with after his mysterious appearance once more. Just what are Young Master Lu’s motives? Why is he always watching out for her even though he was the one that had dumped her? And worst still… What’s with that tsundere attitude of his…?! Translator’s Review: This is a really sweet novel about a couple that just annoys one another in the cutest ways. Lu Yanchen is a descendant of a powerful aristocratic military family. Cold, aloof, genius and sharp, this is a man that has it all – status, smarts and looks. But none of that matters when it comes to affairs involving his silly woman as everything melts away into an encompassing warmth. Purple-Red Beauty is someone that spends a lot of time building the settings of her novels. Earlier on, I too was rather annoyed at some of the things that Lu Yanchen did. But once the story gets on track… everything suddenly seemed even sweeter than before! If any of you have heard of the Japanese manga Itazura na Kiss or have caught any of the many Japanese (Mischievous Kiss), Chinese (It Started With A Kiss) and Korean (Playful Kiss) drama reboots made for it, you will definitely love it! :P

After rebirth, she changed the world

Sheng Jiao, who had been brought home by her biological parents but had her superpower taken away by her adopted daughter and thrown out of the base, was reborn after dying under the siege of zombies. He was reborn in a parallel universe. At this time, Sheng Jiao had not been taken away by the Ye family. She had not been framed by her adopted daughter, bullied, humiliated, and died with grievances. After her rebirth, Sheng Jiao decided to kick away her cold and heartless family and focus on being her savior. In the 13th year of the apocalypse, humans discovered a strange livestream room. There were zombies running amok in this world, but the situation was much better than theirs. The singer of the benefit performance did not commit suicide because of his brother's death. Instead, he wrote a song that had a healing effect and resisted the attack of the zombie tide. The base that killed superpowered people did not become a malignant tumor. Instead, it was completely annihilated when it was still in its infancy. The doctor who was bitten by the patient did not die with his precious healing power. He worked diligently to treat the patient and developed an antidote to resist the zombie virus. A man with a special ability who should have died of a serious illness in the early days of the apocalypse miraculously came back to life. Even the research institute that was forced to stop its research received funding from kind-hearted people and ended the apocalypse. The humans in the apocalypse were in an uproar. They wanted to find a way to end the apocalypse like the people in that world. The higher-ups of the base were ashen. Only they knew that the person who had changed the world had long been thrown into the zombie pile by them. They had destroyed hope with their own hands, and they had also seen Sheng Jiao break free from the shackles of fate and shine in the parallel universe.

The imperial concubine wants to climb the wall

The moment he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated to a different world, and he was lying in a mass grave with nothing on his body. It was so miserable! Her family had a white lotus sister who was biased towards her father. Her husband's family had unruly subordinates. The high and mighty white moonlight was jumping around one after another. When they saw her, they would step on her. What kind of trash were they? Shangguan Qian's hands were itching. She was a clean freak and had to clean up the rubbish when she saw it. As for that so-called husband? Sorry, a marriage without any emotional foundation is like a plate of loose sand. I won't serve you anymore!
