CompletedA female protagonist with a mollusk phobia meets a male protagonist who is a mollusk. This is a 1v1, SC story.
Everyone says not to pick up men casually from the roadside, but Mu Xingchen not only picked one up, she recklessly got involved with him. However, the man was incredibly handsome and terrifyingly powerful, so she had no choice but to pretend to be a delicate white flower, manipulating him into falling for her.
The man was overjoyed, doting on her immensely. He proposed to her, and she happily accepted. Unexpectedly, on their wedding day, Mu Xingchen eloped.
On a cliff, Li Jing pointed his sword at Mu Xingchen, trembling as he asked, "Why did you betray me? Didn't you say you loved me? Didn't you say we'd be together forever?" As he spoke the last few words, blood subtly seeped from the corner of his mouth.
Mu Xingchen fell silent. She had ophidiophobia, a fear of snakes. Snakes were damp, gloomy, cold-blooded, and preferred darkness. Their vertical pupils made her scalp tingle, and the glistening black scales on their bodies gave her goosebumps.
After a long silence, Mu Xingchen said, "When we fell in love, you were still human. But now, you're a snake demon." Li Jing spat out a mouthful of blood directly. It was in Bluestone Alley that she picked him up, she said it was love at first sight, and she said she would love him for eternity. Later, not only was he deceived out of his demon spirit, but he was also poisoned.
In a dark, gloomy room, Mu Xingchen's wrists were bound by heavy iron chains. He pressed her, asking if she loved him. Mu Xingchen thought, a snake wasn't worthy. She used a self-inflicted wound ruse to deceive him and taunted, "A single wound makes you so nervous; how could you ever win against me?"
Li Jing became consumed by darkness. The dark room was filled with torture instruments, and screams echoed all around. Yet, she looked at him with disdain, completely unmoved.
The third time news spread of Li Jing's death on the battlefield, Mu Xingchen only found a snakeskin when she arrived. Mu Xingchen stood dazed in place for a long time, so long that her racing heart slowed to an incredibly sluggish pace.
Not long after, an army of 100,000 soldiers mobilized to capture her. Li Jing sneered behind her, "Run, keep running." The entire world became his bait, solely to capture her. Mu Xingchen looked at his blood-stained legs and immediately fumed, "You harmed yourself!" "A self-inflicted wound ruse, haven't I learned that from you?"

Her beloved's true form cannot be defiled, but who wouldn't want a taste of her beloved's stand-in? Zhuang Rong'er: I do (?﹃?)
A Huai learns the story between Zhuang Rong'er and her prematurely departed beloved from others. That person's name also contained the character "Huai", and he looked ninety percent similar to A Huai. That person was the proud genius of the top sect a hundred years ago, a swordsmanship prodigy renowned throughout the world. That person had a gentle and reserved personality, a gentleman like the wind.
That person suffered from an eye condition and covered his eyes with a silk band... Others tell him that while Zhuang Rong'er seems to like him, she actually only sees him as a substitute and plans to use his body to resurrect her beloved in the future. A Huai nods.
He kills those 'others' with his sword. As they fall into a pool of blood, their eyes still gaze at him incredulously, seemingly questioning "Why?" A Huai sheathes his sword, lowers his gaze, and whispers: "Too talkative."
He wants to continue pretending to be ignorant, to deceive Zhuang Rong'er into giving him her hidden and guilty affection. Why did they have to expose him?
The female lead has an obsessive personality. The male lead is his own substitute. The 'others' in the synopsis are not innocent bystanders. 1v1 HE, Cold-faced Cute Girl X Gentle Cool Guy.
CompletedTrigger Warning: Not 1V1 (purity not guaranteed for FL), multiple male leads, all male leads are pure.
Su Yaoyao transmigrated, becoming the beautiful, useless, love-struck eldest princess of the Great Xia Nation, ignorant and unskilled.
To think, for a man who would rather marry a lowly woman than accept her, she nearly took her own life?
Su Yaoyao declared, with money, beauty, and a doting younger imperial brother, what kind of man couldn't she have? Why hang herself on a crooked tree?
Su Yaoyao flirted with all the officials in the court: the iron-willed general, the learned grand academician, the cold-blooded and ruthless Dali Temple Shaoqing, the invisible killer from the dark guard, and more.
The Princess's residence instantly transformed into an Asura field, descending into chaos.
Until one day, Su Yaoyao led the new top scholar into the inner chambers of the princess's residence.
Looking at the men vying for her affection, Su Yaoyao helplessly said, "He's here to join us, not to break us apart. You're all always my most beloved men... OK?"
The men of the princess, who had no official titles: ...

CompletedEmotional Version: Alice Bennet, the third daughter of the Bennet family of gentry in England, rapidly became famous after moving from the countryside of Longbourn to the metropolis of London. Everyone thought she was a true English lady, but unfortunately, beneath the facade was a jade hare spirit from the East.
Adrian Moran, the second son of the former Earl of Camden, obtained a teaching position with the help of his family, becoming a clergyman in London. However, as famous as his beauty in aristocratic circles was his sharp tongue.
When an unrestrained Eastern妖精 meets a stoic Western clergyman... Alice: "Mr. Adrian, you're a beautiful, fragrant little biscuit, let me have a bite." The most stubborn-mouthed gentleman said, "Miss Alice, no!" Progress bar for pushing him down: Completed!
Career Version: As a medicine-pounding jade hare, she took advantage of a heavenly realm exchange experience to reincarnate into the Bennet family in Longbourn, Western world, becoming Alice Bennet. With two older sisters and three younger sisters, she was destined to receive no inheritance.
To avoid ending up on the streets, she wielded her jade pestle and headed to London to resume her old profession. Mrs. Bennet: "Selling medicine? No, Alice, you are a gentleman's daughter, pity my delicate nerves!"
Delicate nerves? She has medicine! Alice smeared invigorating paste on Mrs. Bennet's face... "Have you heard about that Eastern pharmacy in London? The owner is actually a young gentleman's daughter."
"Who doesn't know now? It's so unfashionable not to! That's the magical pharmacy leading the new trend in Europe!"
Notes: The female lead is not a virgin, the male lead is. The overall plot line and emotional line content ratio is roughly 3:7; more plot in the early stages, more emotional lines after a dozen chapters. The female lead is semi-original, based on the original work.
She doesn't "collect" Darcy, doesn't break up official couples, and Wickham is unworthy. The story's background mainly references the Georgian era (George III) from the original "Pride and Prejudice"; it's fictional with private settings, so please do not scrutinize historical accuracy.
CompletedA wild and unrestrained Dali Temple officer (Shaoqing) meets a free-spirited, seemingly gentle but actually dark swordsman.
"I wasn't born fearless, but I also don't fear dangerous paths."
Rumor has it that Dali Temple Shaoqing, Lou Wanqiao, is untamed, cold-faced, and iron-blooded. Her one embroidered spring blade has determined the life and death of countless individuals.
Yet, no one knows that decades ago, her family doted on her, calling her Jiao Jiao. A wrongful case left over a dozen members of the Liu family without a resting place. Liu Jiao Jiao changed her name to Lou Wanqiao, climbing from the mud and mire to the high position of Dali Temple Shaoqing, determined to personally slay her enemies before the sun rises.
The path of revenge is long, and she proceeds cautiously, breaking through the situation with her own body. Along the way, she unearths the deeply rotten roots of the dynasty. As the saying goes, the Emperor's heart is unfathomable. If the monarch wishes his minister dead, then the minister shall simply replace the monarch!
Thus, Lou Wanqiao punished villains, overthrew the dynasty, supported a new emperor, set the world right, and saved all living beings—and also accepted a sword from a Jianghu knight-errant.
The first time Lou Wanqiao met Wen Xuechi was in the mountain forest outside the city. He sat on a tree, drinking wine while gazing at the moon, with only a sword by his side, and very kindly offered a helping hand. Lou Wanqiao looked at him and accepted one of the few "friends" in her life.
Later, she fell into a trap and used it to feign death and escape. She thought they would never meet again, only to see that long sword once more in the capital. The sword's owner stared at her, the ice and snow in his eyes melting.
Having seen through the darkness beneath his carefree facade, Lou Wanqiao looked up and asked, "Swordsman, if the law is unjust and your heart is uneasy, what should be done?" He pursed his lips and remained silent, so she drew her blade, answering for him:
"—Then, cut down the injustices in my heart!"
The white-clad young swordsman was unrestrained and free, wielding a long sword, living in solitude in the mortal world for several years. He once rode his horse across the world, watching sunsets, and also fought desperately on the battlefield against thousands of soldiers. No one knew that he had once stood in the imperial court, second only to one person, looking down at the distant Jianghu path.
The court was in ruins, beyond saving. He originally thought this life would be nothing more than watching flowers, moon, and the human world in Jianghu. He never expected that one day, someone would just carry a blade and break into the human world he saw.
She was not born fearless, yet she was unstoppable, unafraid of the treacherous path to heaven. His dormant heart surged anew; he changed his mind and decided to stand alongside her!
"Love me or hate me, I will only be myself. From now until eternity, the road stretches ahead!" "...Hey, all of you, what can you do to this official?"
Reading Guide:1. The female protagonist initially presents herself as her deceased elder brother. The position of Dali Temple Shaoqing was obtained by the female protagonist through her own abilities; it is merely a professional identity, and there are almost no detective elements in the novel.
2. The characters are not perfect. The female protagonist is sometimes vicious, highly intelligent, and highly skilled in martial arts. The male protagonist's personality shows a contrast before and after.
3. Suggestions are accepted, and revisions can be made at any time.

Chu Xuanyi examined himself three times a day: Was he exasperated by Ah Jiu today? (Yes). Did he clean up Ah Jiu's mess today? (Yes). Is the Imperial Advisor's mansion's roof still intact? (Barely).
Facing the startling words from his little oracle, such as "Emperor Uncle, you have pimples on your head," "Empress Dowager, your head isn't green anymore," and "That person with the least hair and biggest hat is going to be unlucky!" Chu Xuanyi clutched his chest, wanting to scream to the sky: Regent Prince... oh no, Your Majesty the Emperor! Empress Dowager! Ancestors! Please, take this living ancestor away!
This Imperial Advisor just wants to be a quiet, handsome man! "Master, master, that bad guy has many black bugs on his head, they're eating his big tigers!" Chu Xuanyi's vision went black.
