[Quest 1: Slay a demon beast.]
Yue Moyin, sitting in a conference room, looks first at the System quest floating in his field of vision, then at the monster hanging upside down from the ceiling behind the quest panel. His feelings are complicated.
Where the hell have I been brought? Is this still the modern world?
[Quest 2: Pass the entrance trial of any demon-slaying sect or clan.]
Yue Moyin carefully chooses his words and casually, vaguely asks the mentor assigned to him by his superiors about demon-slaying clans and sects online.
He expects an enigmatic answer like something out of an urban legend, but the other person types back in a near panic: "Don't worry. Demon slayers are now managed collectively by official agencies. There will absolutely be no plotlines about sects and clans scheming against one another."
Yue Moyin thinks that if his System could talk, it would now be silent with utter embarrassment.
[Quest 3: Obtain a suitable magical weapon. (Recommended weapon: Sata.)]
After his previous experience, Yue Moyin has given up hope of completing System quests by ordinary means. But he wants to find an excuse to chat with his long-acquainted mentor, whom he's never actually met.
This guy is kind of fun to tease.
"Sata?"
Oh? Looks like the plot is going to develop differently this time.
"That magical weapon was sealed underground eight hundred years ago. No one can get it out."
Yue Moyin: Oh.
Wait, who was the mysterious person at the company who helped me slay the demon beast?
Wait, how does answering the demon-slaying mentor's basic questions count as passing the entrance trial?
Wait, as everyone knows, Sata actually has two parts, and the other half just happens to be an apology gift from my mentor?
Finally, putting all the other questions aside, why is my executive assistant also my demon-slaying mentor?
A scheming CEO who won't give in to force, and strikes first if anyone comes after him x a laid-back, adorable, capybara-like employee who's the strongest demon slayer

The Con of Zhao Yao
[Launching in October] [Unlimited paragraph comments] [One-on-one]
Ultra-short blurb: Three hundred days of a fake eunuch and a fake consort fooling everyone
■ Genuine amnesia turns into fake amnesia | Eyes open, and the lies begin | A survival guide to the former court and the imperial harem
● Rustic, pure-hearted, stubborn little dog top x worldly and sophisticated, black-turned-white-turned-black, alluring and beautiful bottom
After adjusting her hairpins, Yu Sizhao enters the bedchamber in an elegant gown.
As stipulated in their deal, for the next three hundred days she must play a consort, born to nobility and carrying the emperor's child.
Yu Sizhao thinks that, with her abilities, pretending to be a woman will be a piece of cake.
Who knew the imperial harem would be so dangerous?
If Nie Yao, the man currently unconscious on the bed, hadn't accidentally drunk that poisonous soup meant to protect a pregnancy,
then she would be the one lying there now.
To ensure her safety from now on, Yu Sizhao needs to find a trustworthy ally as soon as possible.
But where can she find someone she knows well...
Just then, Nie Yao slowly wakes up.
In the face of the interrogation to come, veteran con artist Yu Sizhao has already prepared a flawless explanation.
But before Yu Sizhao can say a word, Nie Yao speaks first: "Thank you. May I ask who you are?"
Nie Yao's eyes are clear as he says this.
He's nothing like the second young master of the Qingshan Sword Sect who tried to drag Yu Sizhao to the authorities outside the palace just days ago.
Yu Sizhao freezes, her pupils trembling.
What's going on?
After testing him, Yu Sizhao realizes Nie Yao has really lost his memory.
Well, this couldn't have worked out better!
Quickly sorting out her new plan, Yu Sizhao gives a light cough and puts on a feminine voice. "What are you talking about, Eunuch? I'm your mistress of many years. You had a spell last night and collapsed without waking up. I was worried sick."
Nie Yao lowers his gaze. His eyes pause briefly on Yu Sizhao's hands, their prominent knuckles hidden beneath her gauzy, wide sleeves. He replies, "I will never forget your life-saving kindness. I am willing to serve... Your Highness with all my heart."
-
Yu Sizhao never expected that Nie Yao would be even more trouble after losing his memory. His personality has turned completely upside down.
He has gone from a refined young gentleman who knows how to read the room to a meddling hothead.
Whenever he encounters injustice, he steps in, no matter which powerful nobles he might provoke.
And he refuses to do anything that goes against his sense of righteousness.
Even if the order comes from his mistress, Yu Sizhao.
With no other choice, Yu Sizhao has to keep putting her cleverness to work to protect herself.
By day, she deals and bargains with the many factions in the imperial court and harem.
By night, she carefully dresses up every shady scheme as something noble, tricking Nie Yao, the highly skilled and well-meaning stubborn mule, into carrying it out.
-
As day follows day, Yu Sizhao seems to grow accustomed to this life.
When she doesn't need to make up lies, she and Nie Yao look at flowers, drink wine, and talk about romance. It's not so bad.
One day, the imperial kitchen sends over another bowl of soup for the first time in ages.
After all that has happened, Yu Sizhao is now favored by the emperor and holds a position close to the empress. She is popular both at court and among the people, and no one dares poison her anymore.
As usual, Yu Sizhao picks up the bowl, takes a spoonful, and brings it to Nie Yao's lips.
To her surprise, Nie Yao, long accustomed to this method of food tasting, subtly leans away.
Yu Sizhao freezes, then sneers and forcibly pulls him back. Using the bowl, she pries open Nie Yao's mouth and pours in all the warm soup.
"When did you get your memory back?"
Now that the truth is out, Nie Yao stops hiding his resistance and lets Yu Sizhao do as she pleases, letting the soup spill across his clothes.
"...A month ago."
Yu Sizhao laughs bitterly.
You can't spend all your time by the river without getting your shoes wet eventually.
-
The land falls into chaos, the capital falls, and the two impostors seize the chance to leave the palace, one heading east and the other west, each going their separate way.
Yu Sizhao thinks this is the end of their relationship.
Nie Yao will go back to being the leader of the righteous sects, while she continues down her own unorthodox path.
As for the hazy feelings they shared in the palace, she assumes they'll remain nothing but a passing dream.
But less than half a month later, Nie Yao shows up at her door.
With nowhere to run, Yu Sizhao refuses to lose face and asks, "Second Young Master Nie, what brings you here?"
Nie Yao opens his sword scabbard and pours out a stream of clear liquor.
"To look at flowers, drink wine, and talk about romance."

I want to read content that everyone can understand, Sihasha
If I have to say it, Mr. Yue is also deceiving the teacher in a sense 🐶 🐶
Mei Linyuan's memories are probably in a fantasy world. Why does Tan know?
I just jumped through it and read the entire book, and then subscribed to support it. In fact, the overall design of this story is quite good, and the characters of Mr. Yue and Mr. Tan are also well portrayed. But reading the whole book makes me feel tired. I thought about it, and the main reason is that I wrote too much. What I mean is that there is no need to write some content, no need to write it in detail, or no need to write it in this place. For example, in Chapter 20, after Mr. Tan shuttles between high-rise buildings, a large dialogue between a woman and a child is added. This dialogue has no meaning here, and its removal will have no impact on the full text. Another example is the tense and fierce battle between Mr. Yue and Yu Mu, with a memory of Luo Kaihui added, which is very ordinary. Although the content of this memory contains a lot of information, when I watched it, all the tension of the battle and crisis suddenly disappeared. Another example is the entire third volume, which is so long and full of content, including battles, betrayals, sneaking into enemy camps, breaking through levels, and memory killings. So much content turns out to be just a mirage created by Mr. Yue alone. Although there is a lot of content, I was really tired of reading it, so the third volume was the one I skipped the most, and I basically skipped the second half. Although I skipped most of the third volume, I didn't feel like I was missing information at all when I read the fourth volume. However, the second and fourth volumes are much more exciting. The events are interlocking, the plot has ups and downs, and the reversal of things and subsequent development are very interesting. Overall, I quite like this story. I wish Mr. Yue and Mr. Tan 99, and I wish the author will write better stories in the future.
Still don't understand, what's the picture?
For a new author who wants to write a plot, the character of the protagonist is very important. Nowadays, people are a lot more impetuous due to short videos. It is actually very difficult if you don't have a certain fan base. It just so happens that the character of the protagonist of this article is too stable, which is very different from the popular style now. Including myself, I read half of this article and picked it up when I found the main text was finished... The best solution is actually to write unit articles or slow-travel articles first to accumulate a few fans, which is much better.
First of all, I apologize for my behavior of running away in the middle of the update... I came back and read it intermittently after it was finished. It is worthy of a sentence, and the logic is coupled. There is basically nothing to criticize. It is a perfect article, all the holes that need to be filled are filled, the characters are flesh and blood, and the young couple is also very sweet. After reading this, this is the second book. The ability is there, and the literary skills are there. The story is really great... But after reading it, I always felt that there was something missing in Dudu. After thinking about it, maybe it was Taiping, just like the perfect Mr. Yue, everything seemed to be perfect. The early emotions of some plots were not accumulated enough, and I was a little confused, and some could not empathize with the article. But overall, it is the best one I have read recently. Thank you to the author for creating such a world! [Three-flowered cat head]
Read this chapter carefully. Does this mean Xiao Tan was transformed into a demon????
How come Tan Zhi is no longer a human being (?) My heroic sister [changed]
I really admire Mr. Yue when I see it at the end. He is indeed a man who has been killed in the business war. His wisdom points have risen so high that he will test it out whenever he has the chance.
