    Reader note

    A few very satisfying short stories. The first one was a real treat for the gossip-loving audience. The second one was quite nuanced, subverting the usual tropes: a scumbag and a scheming woman transmigrate to a post-apocalyptic world, seemingly a star-crossed couple, but in reality, the woman is a heartless ingrate who betrays and abandons the female lead. The female lead is very cool and charismatic. The third one has a lot of truly awful characters who deserve to be taught a lesson.
