Synopsis
“Old Tang, you activated speed-related Genetic Base Points. What’s the direction of those Base Points?” This question caused Tang Ting to have a melancholic expression. “It’s… Hand speed…” “And the right hand at that!” Xu Tui slipped onto a daze. Hand speed and the right hand. This image… Didn’t the teacher say that it was easier to activate the Base Points of the areas you use the most? “Old Tang, just what do you use your hands for?” “According to that explanation, did I activate the Genetic Base Points in my stomach because I’ve eaten 18 year’s worth of meals?” Cheng Mo, who was on his way to becoming a glutton, looked up and sighed.

Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

Has the tyrant's gorgeous beauty turned black?

Du Zhiruo didn't know until he died that he was just a character living in a sadistic book. It was because of Bai Yueguang's early tragic death that the paranoid tyrant couldn't forget. However, she was already dead. What was ridiculous was that someone told her that she had put it on wrongly and had to put it on again. The script that truly belonged to her should be that vile, vile, and vile supporting actress who was greedy for vanity and could not get what she wanted! What the hell was this? She had been arrogant all her life and was not even afraid of death. In the end, she was going to be beaten into dust after being reborn? How could this be! So what if she was a vicious supporting actress? Want her to follow the script? That was impossible, impossible in this lifetime! This time, not only did she want to rewrite her own life, but she also wanted to rewrite the ending of the entire story! * The sadistic female protagonist who hated her the most was her strongest support. The cold-hearted second male lead who despised her the most was her best ally. Even the tyrant who had never looked at her in the eye would become her tool, change his tyrant habits, and become a wise monarch. She was the one and only gorgeous beauty in the book. She could go to the battlefield, take the head of the general among the tens of thousands of troops, and intimidate the barbarians in all directions. She could dominate the world, turn the tide, and turn the rotten into the magical. * Seeing that everything was developing in the direction she had expected, she wanted to retire successfully, but she was once again pestered by the tyrant who had turned over a new leaf. She carried the small bag that was ready to run away and said,"If you come any closer, I'll kill you!" In the end, he straightened his neck and smiled even more sinisterly than she did, thinking,'I've washed myself clean. Kill me!' Don't worry, I won't let you off even if you become a ghost! Don't even think about escaping in this lifetime!
