All Novel
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.
When I Will Never Think of You Again
The tattoo on the back of Wei Yan’s neck was the initials of his ex-girlfriend’s name.
The only reason he had spared me a second glance in that vast sea of people was because my eyes and brows bore a striking resemblance to hers.
Annual Report of the Imperial Harem
I am the most indolent concubine in the Imperial Harem.
The Emperor is currently reading my Annual Slacker Report.
“This year, your name tag was flipped nineteen times. Of those, you were intercepted thirteen times. You actually served in the bedchamber six times, during three of which the Emperor couldn’t perform.”
“This year, you knelt over a thousand times. You called the Noble Consort a ‘bitch’ over ten thousand times, but the number of times you actually said it to her face was zero.”
“Do you remember the Mid-Autumn Banquet?”
“The talent you performed was balancing a pot of wine on your upturned backside, which resulted in half a month’s stipend being docked.”
“This year, your rank and salary have seen no change from last year. In fact, this situation has persisted for three years now.”
“Your keyword for this year is ‘Trash.’ Please keep it up next year.”
Oh no. Am I about to be slacked all the way into the Cold Palace?
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?”
Running to You, Zhizhi
On the day I confessed to my crush, I suddenly discovered that I was just cannon fodder in a novel.
A sudden System notification informed me that the man standing before me was the Male Lead.
The plot was about to kick off, and the Female Lead would soon be making her grand entrance.
It was destiny; I was fated to be nothing more than a background character.
Suddenly, my rebellious streak flared up.
Before anyone could react, I leaned in and planted a loud kiss right on the Male Lead’s cheek.
Both the System and the Male Lead were frozen in shock.
When the Flowers Fell Again
By the time the Female Lead appeared, I was already pregnant with Zhou Shiyu’s child.
I failed to fight against fate. He once risked everything to break off his engagement with her for my sake, but eventually, he grew to hate me to his very core. Even a single glance at me filled him with nothing but disgust.
Finally, I grew tired of it all. I let go of our tangled emotions and even gave up on the child.
It wasn’t until an evening six years later.
A young child knocked on my door.
With a stern, stoic expression that mimicked an adult, he said, “My dad doesn’t want me anymore. Can I stay with you?”
Redemption Fairy Tale
During our sophomore year of high school, the underprivileged student my childhood friend had been sponsoring transferred to our school.
She was plain, rustic, and awkward, yet her eyes carefully concealed a crush on Xiao Yunzhou.
Everyone at school mocked her for her wishful thinking, and they warned me with heavy hearts:
“Huaishan, you’d better be careful. Having Wei Xiaoyun stick to Xiao Yunzhou is like getting a piece of gum caught in your hair-you’ll never get rid of her.”
“Having someone like that hovering around your childhood friend every day is honestly disgusting.”
“Exactly, Huaishan. It’s not the thief you should fear, but the one who’s always watching. Sooner or later, you’re going to suffer at Wei Xiaoyun’s hands.”
Midnight Phoenix
The night before last, I hooked up with a younger guy, only to find out the next day that he was the precious son my client wanted me to escort.
Before leaving for the airport, the young man turned to his mother and said, “You can rest easy with Auntie Que here. No one would dare mess with me except her. Oh, by the way, I finished all the liquor at home yesterday. Remember to buy some more for Grandpa.”
“You silly child, why did you drink so much?”
“…Too much pressure.”
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.”
I Run a Snack Stall in a Horror Game
After being selected by the Horror Game, I took over a snack stall at the village entrance.
An Eerie opened its bloody maw to take a bite out of me, but I reached back and stuffed a meat-filled Mo into its mouth.
He chewed thoughtfully. “Forget it,” he muttered. “Since there’s Mo to eat, I’ll kill you tomorrow instead.”
The next day, it was fresh, fragrant wontons, stir-fried snails with perilla, peppery pork tripe soup, fried skewers, and spicy Malatang…
Every Eerie that passed by abandoned their hunt, burying their faces in the food and eating like possessed creatures.
The viewers in the Live Stream watched in shock as I survived until the very end, all thanks to a single cooking pot.
