    Summary

    Shen Yuan never expected to be transmigrated—who DOES expect that sort of thing!? But here he is, in the world of Proud Immortal Demon Way as some NPC demon child who is at the complete mercy of the cultivation world around him. When he runs into Luo Binghe it is like fate itself plucked him up and set Shen Yuan into the world to be with the Protagonist. Keep him safe. Make sure that Luo Binghe won't ever have to be alone in the world.

    But staying at Luo Binghe's side will be easier said than done, even if his mysterious heritage lands him in the good graces of the Scum Villain, Shen Yuan is still a demon. One living in the middle of a cultivation sect. Not to mention that something—something darker and stronger than Shen Yuan—seems to be messing with the plot, and not changing things for the better. Like Shen Yuan didn't already have enough on his plate to deal with.

    Summary

    “Then what’s the second quest?” Cyno asked. It couldn’t be that bad.

    [Oh, that’s the fun one]
    [New Quest: Make Alhaitham fall in love with you.]

    Cyno looked at the screen with a blank expression. He blinked once… twice… the words were still there. He lost it, “Are you fucking kidding me?!”

    [No lol]


    “What do you mean make the freaking antagonist fall in love with me?”

    Alternatively, the one in which Cyno transmigrates into a shitty novel and his mission is to make the antagonist fall in love with him. While doing this, he also unravels different secrets across his adventure related to his past life and discovering that this transmigration thing is not what he believed it was in the first place.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan doesn't know exactly what he should agree to now. It's already decided, isn't it? It's not like Shen Yuan can just say he doesn't agree, and his family will suddenly decide not to marry him off to the Emperor as part of a good business deal that will make the Emperor able to freely dispose of the Storm Fawns.
    He will marry Emperor Luo Binghe.

    ... Shen Yuan knows what happens to the flowers in the Emperor's harem. They are beautiful, worthy of his attention until their petals wither and the novelty wears off. He knows the same goes for husbands; Luo Binghe has collected a few, and now Shen Yuan is just one more, isn't he? Just a young man who was taken as a business marriage with mutual benefits.
    The eleven other men Luo Binghe has taken as husbands in the past don't agree with that. In the end, Shen Yuan is now part of them; the small harem of men, and, being all of them expert masters in their field, what else can the Emperor's eleven withered flowers do but teach Shen Yuan how to become the ruthless bitch who can take the Empress's place (and the Emperor's heart)?

    Summary

    There's an odd girl at the back of the throng.

    To the casual eye, she looks completely average. She wears the same soft cream and dull yellow uniform of the other girls around her. She is small and slight, and her cheeks are dotted with freckles. Among the other palace girls surrounding her, she blends in perfectly. She could be any girl from any far-flung village of Li.

    But her eyes—they are what catch his attention. They are what draw him in.

    Or: Snapshots of Jinshi and Maomao, throughout the years--of their scars, their mistakes, and a little red string that endures through it all. An exploration of love, fate, and the choices we make, told in twenty-six parts.
