Nan Xi is a mermaid.

She is captured by greedy pirates, who plan to sell her to an illegal organization for experimentation.

A kind sailor saves her.

But the sailor loses his life because of it, and his body is cruelly dumped into the sea.

She takes her benefactor’s body to a witch. The witch tells Nan Xi that to bring the sailor back to life, she must weave ten dreams for him. The price is that she will turn into bubbles when the dreams end.

Nan Xi agrees...

In the first dream, Nan Xi gives the sailor endless wealth, but the witch uses a spell to take away his legs.

In this dream,

she is the unloved daughter of the Nan family. Her mother, Mrs. Nan, died in childbirth, and before the seventh day after her death has even passed, her father brings his mistress and illegitimate daughter into the family home.

The Gu and Nan families arrange a marriage alliance, but the head of the Gu family is in a car accident on the eve of the engagement and is left seriously injured and disabled. The beloved illegitimate daughter refuses to marry a man who is paralyzed from the waist down.

What will Gu Zhou be like in the dream?

The man who risked his life to save her must be gentle.

He really is gentle, and... utterly enamored with her.

P.S. The leads only get together after they are adults.

The high school fangirls who adore Gu Zhou could circle the school track three times over. Others see him as a bright moon, forever beyond their reach.

Only Nan Xi knows that this bright moon fell to earth long ago.

The campus couple-shipping board at No. 3 High School never pairs Gu Zhou and Nan Xi, because everyone knows the two are bitter rivals fighting for the top spot in school.

But on the day of the college entrance exam results and graduation dinner, a classmate sees with their own eyes as the top student Gu pulls Nan, the campus goddess, into his arms and comforts her.

His voice is tender and patient. “It’s okay. I picked C for the last multiple-choice question too.”

Genetic mutations caused by the zombie virus give the little girl supernatural abilities, incredible strength, and an extraordinary ability to recover.

Under Gu Zhou’s guidance, Nan Xi joins the front lines to fight the zombies at eighteen.

The young woman racks up remarkable military achievements and makes a name for herself.

The survivors in the city all think Nan Xi is the leader’s heir, unaware that she is both the heir and the leader’s wife...

For a time, people cannot decide whether to pity a talented young woman who has entered the Eastern Palace or feel sorry for the prince who has married a mute.

Years later, when the new emperor ascends the throne, there is only one woman in his harem: the empress. He enacts new policies for the people’s benefit. Only then do they understand that there is no cause for pity. This is a strategist finding her lord, a crown prince finding his mentor. From then on, the nation enjoys peace and prosperity, and the weather favors the crops. It is a blessing for the country and its people.

The Pretty Supporting Female Character in a Period Novel Awakens

Blurb

Qu Lianyi is graceful and shapely, with skin as smooth as jade. Every gesture of hers is alluring and elegant, making her a standout in any social gathering.

The day she follows her father to move to the capital, she awakens to the memories of the original story. It turns out that she is a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a period novel, destined to have her heart deceived by a scumbag, serve as a stepping stone for the protagonists, and meet a tragic end...

Qu Lianyi: I refuse to accept this!

She has always held a grudge. The painful memories of the original story are still vivid, and this time she will not only avoid death and live a good life, she will also take revenge on everyone who wronged her.

She once turned down the blind date her family arranged, thinking the man was too dull. Now she sees he’s handsome, rich, and fit, and his family has a huge estate. Only an idiot would say no!

She is determined to win over this taciturn man

Standing by his car window and pretending not to notice him inside, bent over to straighten his collar.

Wearing high heels until her feet hurt, then acting coy and asking him to take her home.

Finding him on a rainy day in a fitted, pure-white qipao and asking to borrow his umbrella.

She pulls out every trick in the book.

After all that effort, the man merely responds coldly, “Please conduct yourself with dignity.”

Sorry, I’ll do it again next time :)

She has to win herself a good husband, and she also has to get revenge on those awful men. Qu Lianyi uses her knowledge of the plot to lead the heartless men around by the nose.

She thinks they’ll hate her after getting what they deserve, but instead

Her sharp-tongued childhood friend kneels to apologize and showers her with sweet words. Her rotten white moonlight cleans up his act and turns over a new leaf for her. Her obsessive first love threatens self-harm and swears he’ll love only her...

The heartless men are eager to serve her, and Qu Lianyi can’t get away from them fast enough.

The men she wants won’t give her the time of day, while the ones she doesn’t want swarm around her.

As she frets over how to win over the icy big shot, he pulls her away from the crowd and pins her in a narrow alley, kissing her almost savagely until she cries out in pain. Afterward, he lingers over a kiss to her lips and gently rubs her aching waist as he apologizes. “I was too forward. I just wanted to remind Miss Qu who got here first.”

Qu Lianyi, kissed senseless: Huh? Big shot, where’s your self-restraint?

/

Mu Qingyue is a young special operations brigade commander, stern and reserved, strict with himself. His aloofness comes naturally, and everyone around him describes him as an iron wall, devoid of love and feeling.

According to a former subordinate, when someone once broke the rules and left without permission, Mu Qingyue punished the entire company. They had to do an extra sixty kilometers of weighted cross-country training and copy the regulations ten times. That night, a whole company of grown men wept bitterly.

Even more, a new young woman in the cultural troupe once secretly fell for Mu Qingyue. She made only the slightest attempt to pursue him before he sternly rejected her. The next month, she was transferred out of the unit, crying.

The soldiers shook their heads. The brigade commander would probably be alone for the rest of his life.

His reputation for coldheartedness precedes him. Who would dare get close?

No one expected a tall, leggy beauty with a tiny waist to show up at camp one day.

The beauty uses some hilariously bad acting to pretend she is injured, falling into the battalion commander’s arms and asking him to hold her.

They can only imagine how badly things will end for her.

But the usually stone-faced brigade commander bends down, sweeps the beauty into his arms, and carries her off the training ground.

Everyone around them: So he’s only uninterested in women who aren’t his type!

/

When Mu Qingyue first meets Qu Lianyi, he really can remain unmoved by her flirting.

But gradually...

More and more of a woman’s belongings appear in the passenger seat of his car.

Her lipstick ends up in the pocket of his uniform.

A mark the color of her lips appears on his shirt collar.

She is slowly taking over his whole life.

When Qu Lianyi gets close to another man, Mu Qingyue’s hand, tucked in his pocket, unconsciously tightens around the little steel tube.

For the first time in his nearly thirty years of living by the rules, the man wants to grab someone and make her his.

He knows she is a woman who lies through her teeth and behaves outrageously, but he still cannot stop himself from falling for her.

Theme: Keep your heart turned toward the light, and believe in hope.
