Tragedy
Ghost Mother
I am the most ferocious, terrifying entity in the horror movie world.
I had finally saved up enough points to visit the daughter I once had.
But when I found her, she had already been adopted into a wealthy family.
Bullet comments drifted across the air:
“Just a few of them, and the female lead takes them all with a smile.”
“What have they turned her into? She went from fighting for her life to crying and begging for it.”
“To be fair, she’s pretty unlucky. She ended up crossing these rich brats who aren’t afraid of anything.”
I looked at my daughter, clutching her backpack and trembling slightly, and the group of boys surrounding her.
They aren’t afraid of anything? I wonder if that includes ghosts.
The Lie of Platonic Love
My boyfriend insisted on a Platonic relationship, believing that carnal desire was a sin.
Just for trying to kiss him, he sent me away for “spiritual purification.”
The purification worked.
I no longer felt any desire for him.
However, my desire for other men doubled.
Later, as he stared at the hickey on my collarbone, he started acting like a lunatic in public again.
“Must you insist on falling into the abyss of sin?!”
His friend pulled me onto his lap, kissing my hand with a smirk. “I’ve committed a crime. Why don’t you call the police and have me arrested?”
I Carried His Rival’s Child
My husband holds the highest office in the land, and I am the most virtuous noblewoman in all of Shangjing.
The wives of the capital’s officials all claim I am blessed with good fortune, yet they have no idea that I have been neglected by him for years, my heart heavy with misery.
He finds me dull and is deeply in love with his concubines, with whom he has both sons and daughters.
Finally, after my mother-in-law had expressed her disdain for my inability to conceive countless times, I found myself pregnant.
But Cheng Wenting nearly lost his mind.
With bloodshot eyes, his hand trembled uncontrollably as he choked me. “Whose child is it?”
A gentle smile played on my lips. “My Lord, it is yours, of course.”
He Called It Love, She Called It Revenge
Everyone says my Little Aunt climbed her way to the top using her body.
They claim she used the excuse of caring for me to sneak into my husband’s room every night.
People curse her for being shameless, accusing her of defiling even her own niece’s husband.
But she simply handed me a piece of candy and said, “Yingying, in this life, we will survive together.”
The Replacement Sister
I was the unloved young lady of the Marquis Mansion.
My father gave me to my elder sister’s fiancé and forced me to bear his child.
I was compelled to write a breakup letter to the man I loved.
“How could a Mountain Village Bumpkin ever be worthy of a lady of my station?”
Later, the bumpkin from that letter had risen to the highest ranks, and he mocked me with disdain,
“And you, an Abandoned Wife – how could you ever be worthy of me?”
What If Your Rival Knows the Future?
In my past life, my sister was adopted by a wealthy family, while I was taken in by a street cleaner.
As it turned out, that wealthy family was plagued by vicious infighting. Her parents were cold, her brother was a bully, and she was eventually kicked out with nothing to her name.
My home, however, was full of harmony. To top it off, a wealthy young heir fell in love with me-the poor, innocent Little White Flower. My life was like something straight out of a romance drama.
Consumed by resentment, my sister killed me, and we both returned to the day we were adopted.
This time, she rushed forward and threw herself into the cleaner’s arms before I could move.
“Sister, this time, it’s my turn to be the leading lady of the drama.”
But what she didn’t know is that a leading lady is never defined by her background.
Killing Words
At our wedding, I whispered something in my husband’s ear.
Upon hearing it, he suffered a total breakdown and leaped to his death right then and there.
After he died, countless people-including the police-asked me what I had said.
I remained silent.
Five years later, while I was living in poverty, someone tracked me down. They offered a massive reward, wanting to buy those words from me.
He wanted to know exactly what kind of sentence could kill a man.
In that moment, I was overcome with excitement.
The person I had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Quirks
[Horror Romance + damp, unhinged, obsessive male leads with lots of strange quirks + dark otome vibe]
When Qiu Rongrong met Zhou Jingxing, she thought she could start over. Later, she realized it had only been an illusion.
The gentle “older brother” tore off his disguise and revealed his cruelty. The boy at school who always seemed to protect her turned out to be the one driving the violence. The murderer’s son took her hand and said he would save her-help her escape.
They all said she should atone.
But in this grand, feverish revel, she was the only innocent survivor.
She tried to claw her way out of the mire, to struggle up onto solid ground-only for them to drag her back down into the mud.
Her beginning with him started with deception.
“Remember what fear tastes like. I don’t just want you dead-I want you to die in agony.”
Her ending with him finally came from sincerity.
“Love is the most twisted form of revenge. If you hate me, then use love as your blade-drive it straight into my heart.”
The Tenth Chance
I’m the Sea Queen, and I’m all about living in the moment. (“Sea Queen” refers to a playful woman who has many boyfriends and enjoys a carefree lifestyle.)
Body and mind-I never shortchange myself.
One boyfriend isn’t enough; if one won’t do, I’ll make it two.
On a luxury cruise, I ran into true love again.
But even a Sea Queen can misjudge people. I realized I’d been scammed.
After seeing through the con, I thought I’d make it through the trip safe and sound.
I never expected a far bigger plot-one that would tear me to pieces.
Along the way, the killer gave me ten chances to save myself.
By the time I understood what was happening, there was only one left.
Scapegoat
A year ago, on a whim, I told my wife a story.
Because the content was bizarre and the details were too realistic, she was scared out of her wits.
Afterwards, I deeply regretted it and emphasized countless times that the story was made up. But her trust in me had already collapsed, and the look in her eyes was filled with fear.
That night, she ran into the bathroom, locked the door, and called the police.
As a result, I ended up in jail.
Now, I am sorting out the whole incident as follows.
