| Radiant captain x gloomy beauty
Mo Wan was ordered to head to Songcheng, which was surrounded by zombies, and rescue a research expert from the capital, Jing City.
But when the sealed basement was opened, all she saw was a woman in ragged clothes, her exposed skin streaked with blood.
“Where’s Dr. C?”
“I’m her.”
“What about the rest of the research team?”
“Dead.”
Mo Wan looked away and cursed under her breath. “Chun Chi, can’t you say one honest thing for once?”
The woman opposite her stiffened slightly. “Believe what you want.”
Mo Wan gritted her teeth. “I remember everything you’ve done. You really think I wouldn’t dare shoot you dead?!”
Chun Chi silently began to take off her jacket.
Mo Wan’s brow twitched. “Put your clothes back on!”
“You put them on me.”
“...”
Chun Chi: “Back then, when I left...”
Mo Wan: “My ex is dead. Once you’ve healed, get lost.”
Chun Chi: “All right.”
Mo Wan: “?? You actually dare to agree?”
A month later.
“Captain, did we rescue the wrong person?” a team member hesitantly ventured. “Maybe Dr. C is someone else?”
Mo Wan replied without batting an eye, “We got the right person.”
Team member: ...Maybe you should take another look at who’s standing behind you?

The Killer and the Scholar | Cold-blooded killer x noblewoman
Linghu Sun was trained from childhood by Old Ghost to be a killer. She had killed many people in her life.
Good officials and corrupt ones, ordinary folk and bandits alike.
She was the most prized blade in the entire sect.
But one day, a flower fell upon that blade.
“She saw it. Kill her,” a voice said inside her heart.
In the end, she still hesitated.
“Mingshu, you win.”
A thread of white light seeped into the darkness.
A young lady planted a flower in a killer’s heart, and threads of affection wound around her entire heart.
·
The sect was destroyed because of a traitor planted by the court, and in her previous life Linghu Sun died an undignified death as a result.
Reborn, Linghu Sun hated traitors and spies to the core. She vowed to root out everyone hidden in the sect who had ties to that damned court.
But before she could put her skills to use, she received an important assignment from the sect.
“Old Ghost wants you to infiltrate the court and find a way to bring down the rotten government from within,” the woman said.
Linghu Sun gave a cold laugh. “Does Old Ghost not know how many damned ministers I’ve killed? Does she not know the damned emperor hates me to death?”
The woman took it in stride. “She knows.”
Linghu Sun clenched her fists. “Ha. Then how does she plan to fool everyone and plant me in the court?”
The woman shook her head. “Plant you? The sect is so broke we can barely scrape together a coin. Where would we get the silver to grease the wheels? The autumn examinations are coming up, aren’t they? Old Ghost wants you to disguise yourself as a man, take the exams like everyone else, and become an official.”
They expected a killer to moonlight as a candidate in the imperial examinations?
Linghu Sun raised a sinister smile and said darkly, “Let her die too.”
As if she’d ever take those damn exams.
She’d never become an official for that damned court, even if it killed her.
Six months later.
The woman stared at Linghu Sun, who had been seized by a family seeking a son-in-law from among the successful candidates, and asked with a half-smile, “Well, who was it that said she’d never become an official for that damned court, even if it killed her?”
Linghu Sun: “...Get lost.”
