After Divorcing the Obsessive Emperor, He Regretted It

[This story will switch to a paid chapter model starting from Chapter 25 on Thursday, April 18. Thank you for your support!]

When they first married, Xuan Rong and Qi Gu were deeply in love, inseparable and affectionate. The officials of the court were used to seeing their emperor indulge his empress, granting every wish, no matter how impossible.

It should have been a beautiful love story, but then they suddenly fell out. The emperor and empress divorced, and Xuan Rong moved out of the palace.

Everyone had envied Xuan Rong when he was favored by the emperor. Now just as many people were waiting to laugh at him!

But Xuan Rong didn’t fall apart. Instead, he was the first to move on from the relationship and do something earth-shattering: he announced that he was going to take a wife!

Qi Gu considered himself an emperor whose heart belonged to the realm. He thought he wouldn’t care when Xuan Rong left.

But after the divorce, more and more people noticed that something was wrong with the emperor

For instance, when His Majesty was sitting there, staring blankly at the chair where Empress Xuan used to sit, the palace eunuch outside announced, as usual, “Lord Xuan requests an audience.” His Majesty dismissed him for being noisy and sent him off to scrub chamber pots in the night court.

Or take the new eunuch on duty. He put the hibiscus tree that Empress Xuan had pruned outside to bask in the sun, and His Majesty sent him to the kitchens to chop firewood for taking matters into his own hands.

More outrageous still, one official transferred from the border to the imperial city had the character Rong in his name. His Majesty issued an imperial decree and changed the man’s entire name, surname and all...

Anyone with eyes could see the source of Qi Gu’s strange behavior. Though Qi Gu wore a frosty expression all day, he kept pretending not to care.

It was only when news that Xuan Rong was remarrying reached the palace that the palace attendants saw the lofty emperor finally lose his composure and stride down from the dragon throne.

Late at night, beneath the stars, a swift horse galloped out along the palace road.

No! He still couldn’t live without him!

P.S. The gong is not chaste. A groveling-after-the-divorce story. The ending is undecided.

The Scum Shou Persona Must Not Collapse [Book Transmigration]

Su Luo transmigrated into an old-fashioned, melodramatic angst novel.

And he was the protagonist shou!

Fight back! He had to fight back!

He’d die if he deviated from the script, right?

He chose to lie flat!

If he was going to die anyway, he’d rather get it over with than suffer for longer!

But because he chose to give up, the System gave him a special feature that reset the story whenever he strayed from the script.

The story opens when the eighteen-year-old protagonist shou, short on money, sells himself to CEO Gu Chu as his lover. That very night, the two of them get intimate.

After going through eighteen resets, Su Luo shed tears of regret and gave in.

Fine, you win, System!

Su Luo had no choice but to accept that he was a scum shou and diligently play the innocent flower for quite a while, as instructed by the System.

This plot was ugly, awful, and endless!

Su Luo was about to suffocate.

Couldn’t any of these idiots open their mouths and talk?

Su Luo found a loophole.

The script said he couldn’t deviate from the plot, but it never said he couldn’t speed it up.

Su Luo kicked the plot into high gear, wrapping everything up in one go and going straight to the happy ending.

All the love and hate, spy games, and misunderstandings, as well as getting their marriage license, were settled in a single day!

Su Luo made a deal with Gu Chu: Su Luo would tell Gu Chu everything he wanted to know, while Gu Chu would follow the plot and get a marriage license with him. Afterward, they’d get a divorce certificate.

Who knew the bastard Gu Chu would go back on his word and refuse to divorce him!

After transmigrating into the book, Su Luo realized that things went wrong whenever he didn’t follow the plot, so he instantly became Gu Chu’s most devoted bootlicker.

“I’m willing to be Mr. Gu’s lover. Mr. Gu is my whole world!”

(Help, that’s so disgusting. Brother Luo is suffocating.)

“As long as Mr. Gu needs me, I can give my life for him!”

(You dog of a man. The day Brother Luo is free again is the day your head rolls.)

And so Su Luo kept sucking up to Gu Chu, looking at the liver-colored expression on his face every day and enjoying himself immensely.

He followed the plot, played the lovestruck fool, and annoyed Gu Chu to no end. Life was wonderful.

One day, he went to flirt with Gu Chu as part of his usual routine. He walked over to him and thoughtfully started massaging his shoulders.

Before he could say anything flirtatious, he saw the end-of-life plan he had personally drawn up for Gu Chu in Gu Chu’s hands!

Su Luo: “…Someone save Luo Luo.”
