Friendship
A New Way to Retire in the Imperial Harem
My best friend and I transmigrated together.
She became a princess consort, while I became… a lynx.
“Save me, save me, save me…” I begged.
“Hang in there!” my best friend said. “I’ll fight for custody!”
Then I demonstrated that I could use a toilet all by myself, and Her Majesty the Empress chose me instead.
Later, when my best friend’s husband rebelled and nearly got her killed, it was her turn to beg, “Save me, save me, save me…”
So I-I sprang up and sank my teeth into the villain’s thigh.
The Day Savory Flatbread Arrived
On Mars, every breath costs money, wanting is treated like a moral failure, and Chen Xiaoba has spent her life longing for one impossible luxury: savory flatbread from Earth.
After that longing costs her job and home, a reunion with her childhood friend Ah Zhi leads them to Black Rose Street, where Earth’s discarded scraps can still be traded for hope.
Together they build a food stall, save for passage to Earth, and discover that the road to freedom may demand far more than money.
In a world designed to make the poor stop dreaming, Xiaoba must decide whether a seemingly wasted journey can still be a life worth choosing.
Lou Xiao
The first time criminal investigator Lou Xiao met Qiao Xia was at a wedding that had descended into total chaos. Years later, the two reunited on a blind date. From testing each other and misunderstanding each other to slowly drawing closer, one clumsy but sincere, the other clearheaded and independent, they learned, little by little, amid entanglements with people from the past, the pressure of work, and sudden danger, to put their love into words and to make room for each other in their future.
I Heard You Like Me
In the seventh year of having a crush on my childhood friend, encouraged by my best friend,
I carried flowers and a cake onto an overnight train to confess my feelings to him.
But on a basketball court roaring with noise and people,
I ran straight into the sight of the two of them kissing.
With his arm around my best friend, my childhood friend asked coldly, “What are you doing here? Can’t you see I’m busy?”
Disheveled and humiliated, I was just about to explain
when his roommate beside him let out a soft laugh. “My girlfriend came to bring me a cake. What’s it got to do with you?”
While Others Fall in Love, I Go Crazy: The Supporting Female Character Smashes the Entertainment Industry
introduction:
[1v1 guaranteed sweetness + romance reality show + playfully going wild with memes + heartthrob + romantic battlefield + male lead]
Ning Xi lived for 21 years before realizing she was the universally disliked fake heiress in a novel where the rich family dotes on one child-a foil and stepping stone to the Real Heiress.
In the book, everyone who adored the Real Heiress got everything they wanted and became wildly successful, while anyone who went against her ended up miserable.
Ning Xi was silent. Ning Xi had an epiphany. Ning Xi got excited:
“I get it! I should chase after the Female Lead too! Be good to the Female Lead!”
So –
When the Real Heiress put on a brave face and spoke gently in front of Ning Xi’s fiancé, Ning Xi looked at her with genuine concern: “I know you want to be strong, but you don’t have to be strong anymore – I’ve got you!”
When the Real Heiress shed tears in front of Ning Xi’s Childhood Friend, Ning Xi yelled at him: “If you make her shed a single tear, I’ll make you bleed! If you break my sister’s wings, I’ll bring down your entire heaven!”
When the Real Heiress fainted in the arms of the Prince of Xiangcheng, Ning Xi swooped her up and warned him: “My girl – don’t touch, don’t steal, don’t even think about her. If you lay a finger on her, 110 takes me away, 120 takes you away!” (110 = police, 120 = ambulance)
When the Real Heiress was exposed for dating multiple guys and her reputation was ruined, Ning Xi fumed: “Even if we take ten thousand steps back, are those guys totally blameless?”
After going wild, Ning Xi’s whole mental state improved a lot.
But then, everyone else started acting weird.
The hot-tempered, sharp-tongued Childhood Friend started sending her abs workout videos; the cold fiancé’s eyes turned red and his voice shook as he begged her to get back together; the Villain Boss was willing to play the third for love.
Even the Real Heiress, who always put her down, was teary-eyed: “I thought I was just clever, but I didn’t expect you to truly love me.”
Ning Xi: ?
Everyone’s lost it…
Advising Breakup Eight Hundred Times, Finally Drinking at the Best Friend’s Wedding
I tried to persuade my best friend to break up eight hundred times, but in the end, I attended her wedding and drank her wedding wine.
On the wedding day, I sat at the main table with the guy’s strategist, both of us checking our phones and comparing notes.
We realized that every time the couple threatened to break up, it was always the two of us who got dragged into it.
Our chat histories were eerily similar.
[We broke up. This time it’s for real.]
[But what about him/her? What should I do?]
Guy’s strategist: [Maybe you should change jobs. You’d make a great clown in a circus.]
Me: [Pay me some compensation.]
My Oblivious Boyfriend Is Green-Tea-Proof
My boyfriend’s manipulative junior had tried to steal him away from me one too many times. Finally, I reached my breaking point and gave him a piece of advice.
My boyfriend replied, “Got it.” The next day. The junior said, “Good morning, Senior! What a coincidence, seeing you here again.”
My boyfriend replied, “Good morning. I’m gay.” The junior: “?”

My son was being pestered by another boy.
The teacher called and asked me to come to the school.
When I arrived, he shouted at me for the first time. “Mom, what’s wrong with me liking boys?”
I looked at him, feeling neither anger nor resentment.
I crouched down and asked him in a low voice, “Then how can you be sure that you like boys?”
Little One
My sister was beautiful and brilliant, always effortlessly winning people over.
Compared to her, my plain self was like a timid little mouse.
My parents used to say, “How can you even compare yourself to your sister?”
My childhood friend said, “Jiajia and you don’t look like sisters.”
I asked him, “Then what do we look like instead?”
Sniffling, he replied:
“Like a princess and her maid.”
That was until I met Cen Yi.
My parents were clinging to my sister, introducing her to his family and boasting about how exceptional their daughter was.
I stood off to the side, stealing glances at the cookies on the table.
But he bypassed everyone else and pulled me into a tight embrace.
“Mine,”
he said.
Best Friend
When I was eighteen, I didn’t dare push open that door. Behind it, my best friend was playing adult games with the male writer I secretly loved.
I remembered that moment for ten long years. In that decade, my friend died, the writer stopped writing, and my life was ruined.
I respectfully composed a letter and mailed it to the man I had once loved from afar: Chen Song.
