I THOUGHT IT WAS A COMMON POSSESSION

As if it wasn’t enough to be hit on the head by my co-workers and boyfriend, I died at the hands of my gambling-addict older brother. Without even regretting my unfortunate death, I realized that I had possessed a supporting role in a romantic fantasy novel, which I just read yesterday. To be precise, a villainess destined to die at the hands of her husband. I know it’s cliché! ‘Possessed a villainess in a romantic fantasy novel! So this is what it feels like?’ I thought it was pretty good for the price of my unfair death. Until I realize that no matter what I do, I can’t deviate from the flow of the original. For the female lead Rizé, it’s a delightful cider series, but it’s nothing more of a bloody story for Edith, the villainess I possessed. I am the protagonist in my life. If I’m going to die according to the original story, I should at least kiss my super handsome husband! In the original story, Edith is greatly despised by her husband, but who cares, I’m going to die anyway. However… “You pretended not to be, but now you’re so hot to play with. Well, that’s good.” “Yes…?” “Satisfy me like Rigelhof’s serpent. Well, who knows? I might be interested in that body of yours.” …why is the original story starting to change now? ***** P/s: The cover and the story are not mine. i just translate them to promote their story... but the translation are mine,Don’t use it without permission.

From Humble Origins to Common Man

For Shi Lu, a dual-system powerhouse born in the end times, nothing is more important than simply surviving. So, when she was struck by lightning and became Li Wu Ya, a daughter of a humble military household in ancient borderlands, she adapted well and quickly assimilated into the ways of the ancient people. To live, one must have some pursuits. Clothing: Fine silk and satin, and jewellery too, but not excessive. Food: A daily indulgence in bird's nest, shark fin, and sea cucumber, but not excessive. Shelter: Pavilions, towers, and elegant corridors, surrounded by serene bamboo forests and the melodies of birds, where one's home becomes a scenic spot, but not excessive. Transportation: Lavish carriages and luxury horses are a must, but not excessive. With an endless supply of money, no need to work, a loving husband, and children to warm her bed, life... perfect! Life is not easy, so one must love oneself dearly. Shi Lu is determined to experience everything she hasn't encountered or enjoyed in the end times. Unfortunately, reality dealt her a harsh blow. The borderlands are bitterly cold, plagued by years of war, and even getting enough food to eat is difficult, with constant threats to her life. Fine, let's roll up our sleeves and strive! Shi Lu abides by one motto: As long as you don't stand in my way, you're good, I'm good, and everyone's good. Otherwise!!! To secure her position, one must be assertive. In life's triumphs, one should indulge. Be a shallow yet happy commoner.

** Minor Spoilers about the book, but nothing specific, just general content/themes*** Great story, in line with the other stories by this author. If you haven't read her other stories, read them! She is awesome at writing romance stories that are light-hearted/feel good, for when you want to read something and don't want to deal with the bullpoop love triangles that are so common. There are the typical misunderstandings common in romance books, but they are usually resolved quickly and are not drawn out for 200 pages. READ THIS AUTHOR'S BOOKS!

I am a huge fan of this story. Though it shares many common themes with standard cultivation stories, there are key differences. One being that the MC has a clearly defined goal and knows what he has to do to get there. The world building and story development are excellent, with logical progression.

An interesting read with a few unexpected developments thrown in. That's hard to do well in trope writing but the author does a great job blending common themes with an engaging plot.

The host is lonely again

Song Wanyan was a diligent worker, racing against time to travel between different planes, collecting gold coins and slices of her sponsor's father. She sighed at the worker's spirit, the worker's soul, and the worker's superiority! When the cold and aloof top student looked at her flirting skills with disdain, he said," The people next door are still carrying trains and running through the night." When the mountain peak had no edges, Song Wanyan looked up at the sky 360 degrees and concluded with one sentence. " Being a worker is blissful and fulfilling!!" A certain sugar daddy was speechless.

After Zhiyi spread to various worlds, she wanted to take a vacation and experience the style of other worlds. The thing she wanted to do the most was to lie on her 800-square-meter bed and look at the sea outside. She also wanted to bully the honest and ignorant local Son of Heavenly Axiom. At some point, a person appeared beside her. Every part of his body was Zhiyi's ideal type. It was simply an ideal type that was tailor-made for her. Zhiyi wanted to stay away from him awkwardly, but she could not help but be attracted and want to get close to him. Yi Chuan deliberately created a character that Zhiyi liked the most, and knelt in front of Zhiyi to pray for love in a soft voice. Zhiyi felt that she could. Later on, the world fell into darkness, and all the things she liked disappeared. Zhiyi sensed that the person behind her was holding her in his arms. His arms tightened inch by inch, and his body trembled slightly as if he was afraid and excited. His almost infatuated words were gentle and creepy. He seemed to be sighing softly beside her ear and couldn't help but kiss Zhiyi's wrist. His voice was blurry and wet." Mine." "Ah Yi belongs to me…" A Yi: F * ck you. [Demining] 1.

Can Chenqie stay?" …… The stubborn tyrant was surprised to find that the little Jiao Fei who only wanted to leave the palace all day had suddenly become a little demon who tortured people.
