The Beautiful Madwoman Is a Big Shot [Infinite]

[This story is on hiatus with no set return date. Please consider carefully before starting.] The summer after graduating from college, Shen Qianqiu entered an infinite game that called itself The Forbidden Book. What do ghosts look like? The ghosts Shen Qianqiu encountered in the game came in countless forms. They were cunning and deceitful, using exquisite faces to beguile people, lurking and spying in the shadows, luring people into bloody battles in the open... They seemed to be especially fond of him. As it happened, he was very interested in them, too. Qi Wu told him, "You're asking for trouble." Shen Qianqiu disagreed. The blood splashed across his face was cold. How amazing, ghosts could bleed, too. The ghost before him crashed to the ground. The elegant man wiped the blood beneath his eye with a faint smile, leaving a red streak. He winked at the other man and said slyly, "The law grants us the right to fight back when we're in danger. This is self-defense." Yes, his attacker was a ghost. Qi Wu had no idea where his interest in Shen Qianqiu came from. Perhaps it was the other man's extraordinary sensitivity to ghosts, or perhaps it was how he always chose to secretly court death whenever he was alone. Their meeting was an accident, but the abnormality was the bridge effect. He was nervous, worried that Shen Qianqiu might do something dangerous at any moment. That was why his heart raced whenever he saw him. ☆ A beautiful bottom who loves courting death but somehow can't die x A top-tier expert who loves life, usually aloof and occasionally sharp-tongued ☆ Not horror-focused, more about missions, puzzles, and escape ☆ Has a subtle golden finger ☆ Cover art by the artist @Zhenjun~~ [Coming soon: Strong-Kissing the Male God After Being Reborn.

But a "transmigrator" had meddled, and after graduating from high school, he and Fu Yihan had gone their separate ways! After being reborn, Mu Chen was furious.

[Coming soon: After Games Invaded, the Country Helped Me Handle My Love Triangle. Please add it to your reading list~] Three months ago, games invaded the world, though most people knew nothing about it. That same month, Shen Yu woke up to find an irregular black crystal by his pillow. It looked a lot like the game-clear reward he'd just received: the Demon King's Heart. Three months later, the world was transformed. The truth about games invading reality could no longer be concealed. The internet was flooded with information, and Shen Yu was bewildered when an armed unit burst into his home and took him deep into the mountains. In the room, a row of bigwigs he'd only ever seen on the news asked him with grave expressions, "How exactly did you steal the Demon King's Heart?" Shen Yu: "What? The Demon King gave it to me!" Bigwig: "Why would he give it to you?" Shen Yu: "Because I maxed out his affection level?" "..." The bigwig looked at him and sighed heavily. "You don't know yet, do you? The Demon King says he's lost something important, and he's about to attack!" Shen Yu's head was full of question marks. He gave it to me, then says it's lost? What an shameless man! Sasnal was the uncrowned king of a fantastical world. Rumor had it that this newly appointed Demon King was young and impossibly handsome, and that beauties of countless races were drawn to him, yet no one dared to kneel beneath his royal robes. That was because his explosive temper was as famous as his looks. They said every drop of the Demon King's blood was filled with a desire to fight and conquer. Then one day, the Demon King accidentally fell asleep in his palace. In his dream, Sasnal heard a siren's enchanting, melodious song. A figure rose and fell with the waves on the deep blue sea. His eyes and hair were like the pure, profound night sky, and the scales on his fish tail glittered like bright, dazzling stars. In the dream, he fell in love with a mermaid and even gave him a treasured trophy as a token of their love. When the Demon King awoke, he felt an inexplicable sense of loss. Then he realized that something really was missing. Demon King: "..." Theme: Treasure life and stay away from courting death.
