[This was the author's first attempt at writing beyond an 800-character school essay. The pacing and character development weren't thought through, and everything is very rough and immature. Read at your own risk, darlings!]
Blurb:
Ming Li, a top talent in the Mary Sue Division of the Quick Transmigration Bureau, had spent years steeped in sweetness thanks to the nature of her work. Her blood sugar was so high she nearly died suddenly, so her colleagues suggested she try a few angsty stories and spread some of her sweetness around.
To save her own life, Ming Li happily agreed.
But the moment she entered an angsty story world, her blood pressure shot up and she nearly suffocated.
"A ventilator... Hurry! I need oxygen!"
But as the Queen of Mary Sues, how could she possibly let fear stop her?
1. A Powerful Partnership, Ruling the Apocalypse
Cold, formidable all-element esper vs. sweet-looking girl who's secretly a martial arts powerhouse
The male lead was a powerful survivor in the apocalypse. But after the girl he loved was harmed by zombies lured in by a pair of despicable lovers, he chose to blow himself up after saving the world.
His powerful soul energy caused the world to collapse. What should have been a wish-fulfillment story for male readers turned into a badly ended, tragic romance.
Ming Li: I, who's spent my whole life wandering through Mary Sue worlds, simply cannot accept this...
Then she'll take a little revenge for all the harm the original heroine suffered, and lead the male lead on a mad dash toward sweetness and satisfaction!
2. A Chase-to-Win-Her-Back Story? He Should Be Reduced to Ashes :)
Poor, aloof campus heartthrob vs. clever, spirited heiress
A boy as refreshing as a breeze and bright as the moon falls in love with a little princess from a wealthy family. He should have worked hard and won her heart, but halfway through, the author fell in love with chase-to-win-her-back stories and had a rich, heartless playboy win her instead.
The poor boy became a supporting male character who silently stood by her, only to be crushed to death. This badly ended, angsty story became an unresolved regret for countless readers.
Ming Li: "? Don't try to drive up the price of a pig, okay?"
A good boy deserves happiness. He should get everything he wishes for.
3. Watch Me Take Your Place as His Dark Moonlight
Cold, world-weary boy vs. alluring beauty with a seductive air
Abandoned in a small town, the boy endured endless humiliation. He had no love or desire, and was prickly all over. But after a small act of kindness from a girl, he revered her as his moonlight. He let others trample him into the mud for her, and never regretted it.
Years later, he became a remarkably talented genius painter, only to discover that all his sacrifices had been a joke. He grew dark and twisted.
But to make the world's setting fit, the author had him die of depression. He never knew real love, not even in death, and his ending left countless readers sighing with regret...
Ming Li: "He was satisfied with that? Looks like I need to bring him some candy!"

Wen Zhao came from a family of scholars and had been taught from childhood to follow the rules. Her cool, moonlit elegance made countless people keep their distance, afraid to profane her.
But in high school, Wen Zhao always felt that an unknown "snail girl" was by her side.
The blackboard she forgot to clean on her day of duty was spotless the next morning.
The perfect-score exam paper torn to pieces out of jealousy was carefully pieced back together.
The hooligan who, after being rejected, angrily threatened to corner her in an alley never appeared in front of her again.
There were countless things like that.
But that person hid so well that Wen Zhao never managed to catch sight of him.
Only once, on the eve of graduation, when a power outage plunged the classroom into chaos, did someone give Wen Zhao a very gentle hug.
When the lights came back on, all that remained in the air was a fresh, clean scent.
-
After starting university, Wen Zhao was still surrounded by admirers.
But there was one person who was always at odds with her.
His name was Qi Zhuo. In everyone's eyes, he was heaven's favored son: dazzling, carefree, and bold.
When they first met, he was helping someone perform CPR. Out of caution, Wen Zhao questioned him.
The boy replied in a lazy, irreverent tone, "Do you need to check me over, too?"
"I won't charge you."
At a basketball game, Wen Zhao softly begged Qi Zhuo to go easy on her for the honor of their department.
The boy fixed his ink-black eyes on her and smiled. "Sure."
But when the game began, he still crushed her completely.
Wen Zhao couldn't understand it at all: what had she done to offend this young master?
-
It wasn't until one day that she finally got her answer.
After mistakenly believing Wen Zhao was in love with someone else, Qi Zhuo's entire facade fell apart.
In a private room, shifting lights and shadows blurred together.
In full view of everyone, Qi Zhuo pulled her into his arms.
His dark lashes lowered. All his pride vanished, and he pleaded meekly, "Could you look only at me?"

[* The heroine is a bewitching, irresistible woman adored by everyone. She loves no one. A thrilling, feel-good story full of romantic rivalries.]
[* "I love you" is just an act]
Mu You was widely regarded as a master of romance, stunningly beautiful and effortlessly able to move among all kinds of men.
But all those men shared one trait: they were scumbags.
The scumbags she'd hurt grew to hate her out of love, determined to make her pay.
So, driven by the resentment of those scumbags, Mu You died one night. A System appeared and dragged her off to various worlds, where she would experience what it felt like to be betrayed.
-
The hapless System watched for fun, waiting for its Host to be hurt by scumbags until she was covered in wounds and utterly defeated.
But things spiraled further and further out of control.
World One:
Transmigrate into a pure-hearted girl who has her boyfriend stolen by her stepsister and can only hide in her room, grieving over her misfortune?
The man's suit was a disheveled mess. He dropped to his knees, his face stricken and his eyes pleading. "Youyou, from now on, can I love only you?"
Mu You's skin was white as porcelain, with a seductive red beauty mark at the corner of her eye.
At that moment, she looked down at him, raised her delicate foot, and ground her high heel against his suit trousers without the slightest courtesy. Her breath was sweet as an orchid. "I can't, you know, brother-in-law."
Then Mu You walked unhurriedly toward the man waiting quietly nearby for her response: the unattainable moonlight her stepsister had pursued in vain.
World Two:
Transmigrate into the true heiress of a wealthy family, whose fiance is lured away by a fake heiress and whose birth parents despise her?
Her former fiance was dead drunk and a complete wreck, waiting outside her home day and night for his beloved to change her mind.
Mu You wore a swaying red velvet gown and walked toward him, each step like a blooming lotus.
Right in front of him, she wiped away the last traces of lipstick on her lips and smiled with bewitching charm.
Then she turned, hooked a pale jade finger into the tie of the cool, dignified man who had just been holding up her train, and led him inside without a care.
World Three:
Transmigrate into a girl from a pitiful background, forced to become the pampered canary of a domineering CEO, when she's really just a lowly substitute?
After getting what he wanted, the CEO could no longer summon any interest. At a banquet, his eyes followed the woman he'd once discarded like trash, full of longing.
Mu You didn't spare him a glance. Her pale, slender fingers idly swirled a glass of red wine.
The next second, she fell into the arms of a tall, graceful man. He passed her a sip of sweet wine, and she leaned close to his ear, laughing with carefree abandon. "Was it really worth turning against your sworn brother for me?"
* Other worlds to be decided.
The System watched the plot veer further and further toward an unpredictable outcome, its pupils suddenly contracting.
All it could do was watch as Mu Wan, who seemed to be threatened into getting involved with all kinds of men, secretly manipulated the scumbags with ease and led them around in circles.
Theme: Even when faced with adversity, keep yearning for the beautiful things in life
