   The first one is an ancient romance novel where the male lead is 7 years older than the female lead, a "raising-the-woman" type. The second one is a modern romance, a lighthearted story of life in a wealthy family, featuring business, film stars, hilarious comedic moments, an ensemble cast, love, friendship, and family affection—a heartwarming tale. Of course, there's also a villainous female supporting character, the kind who's seemingly innocent but actually ruthless. The third one is about raising an ancient empress, a modern 996 workaholic transmigrated to another world. The female lead is independent and ruthless, a master of both medicine and poison. The male lead is a crown prince who later becomes emperor, a yandere with a mental illness, usually gentle and refined, but with a fear of women. He is devoted only to the female lead, body and soul.

    Reader note

    "After Part-Time Assassin, I Discovered My Boss Was My Husband" By day, she lazed around like a couch potato; by night, she was a fiercely competitive assassin. Until she discovered—her boss was none other than her handsome, lame husband?! Yu Xiaoyu, a sickly rich girl, was "abducted" to the mountains by a white-haired beauty at the age of twelve. For five years, she was fed wild vegetables and honed her martial arts skills, finally "graduating" and leaving the mountain—only to find her master was a wanted criminal, leaving her unemployed. Back home, she was forced into a bridal sedan chair and married the rumored lame third young master of the Shen family. Her husband was gentle and handsome, but his storytelling was so good that she failed to conceive every night. Until she rescued the assassin Mo Qi, starting her second career: a top agent in the Shadow Pavilion, codenamed "Rose." By day, she accompanied her sisters-in-law to lose money and do needlework; by night, she masked herself to assassinate corrupt officials—a fulfilling and paid life. Her only worry: the organization's big boss was elusive, and his eyes always made her heart race. Until she ran away pregnant… no, I mean, she was ambushed while on a mission with her baby, and the BOSS descended from the sky—removing his mask, revealing none other than her gentle, "impaired" husband! Shen Yan raised an eyebrow and chuckled: "Wife, performance bonus deducted, double the story tonight." Yu Xiaoyu hugged her nursing baby tightly: "Boss, can we settle the maternity leave allowance first?" Later, rumors circulated: that killer couple always carried out missions with their child. Nursing on the rooftop × slaying people downstairs, managing to balance career and family perfectly. Shen Yan sighed for the 108th time, looking at his wife who was pregnant again: "Madam, can I request permission to operate alone?" Yu Xiaoyu touched her belly, her eyes sparkling: "Next mission, I'll bring the fourth child along for prenatal education!" [Reading Guide] 1.
