Divorce Countdown

After passing the county-level imperial examination, Liu Yi'an's parents arranged a marriage for her. As it happened, her betrothed was the second young master of the Qiu family, Qiu Chuanbai, whom she had admired for a long time.

On their wedding night, she eagerly pushed open the door, only to find him tied up from head to toe and thrown onto the bed, his whole body trembling as he wept.

It turned out he had never wanted this marriage.

What she had thought was a match made in heaven, he saw as a calamity that had befallen him for no reason.

Unable to bear seeing the person she loved so miserable, Liu Yi'an agreed to his request for a divorce. To protect the reputations of both families, they set the date for a year later.

"Maybe he'll change his mind within the year," Liu Yi'an told herself.

Life is unpredictable. An accident sent her tumbling down a cliff, leaving her fate uncertain.

Qiu Chuanbai braved wind and snow to rescue her, then watched over her day and night without a moment's neglect.

Liu Yi'an took this as proof that he had fallen for her. Overjoyed, she gathered her courage to confess, intending to tell him she had fallen in love with him long ago.

But before she could say a word, Qiu Chuanbai realized how she felt and rejected her first.

"I did all this to repay your kindness. Please don't spend your efforts on me, or it will be difficult for me to repay you."

Not only that, he personally took a young attendant for her: his cousin, Fang Qingchen.

Liu Yi'an's heart turned to ash. She finally gave up on a love she could never have.

But just before the divorce took effect, Qiu Chuanbai changed his mind.

"I won't divorce you. I'm not leaving."

By then, all she wanted was to have nothing more to do with him.

Later, after narrowly escaping death, Qiu Chuanbai stood before her once more, only to find she had another husband: the very man he had personally sent her.

Watching the two of them living in harmony and treating each other with tenderness and respect, Qiu Chuanbai could no longer control the jealousy surging within him.

"He can stay by your side..."

Qiu Chuanbai pinned Liu Yi'an beneath him, his eyes red at the corners and his breathing ragged.

"But you will always be my wife."

Matriarchal setting, men can bear children (this is only a setting while writing; no childbirth appears in the main story or extras). Qiu Chuanbai is not the male lead.

Neither the female lead nor the male lead is a perfect character.

"Master, She Took a Forgetting Pill" (also known as "The Apprentice's Prisoner"). One-line summary: After losing her memory, she is imprisoned by her yandere disciple.

Starts 6.30

Yu Qinglan, the youngest peak master in the Bixiao Sect, was an untouchable figure in the eyes of countless cultivators. Yet after waking from a night's sleep, she had lost a full ten years of memories.

Before she woke, she had been the pride and glory of the whole sect. After she woke, she became a disgrace in everyone's eyes.

She asked others why she had lost her memory, only to learn of something outrageous she had supposedly done: she had set her sights on Shen Yuan, the sect's sword-cultivation prodigy and her personal disciple.

She had imprisoned Shen Yuan in a forbidden area for years, trying to turn him into her own captive lover and sullying the sect's thousand-year reputation.

According to sect rules, Yu Qinglan should have been expelled. But since Shen Yuan had yet to master the Shattering Cloud Sword Art she had created, she was merely punished by being made to take a forgetting pill, so she could put this absurd relationship behind her for good.

So she swallowed the forgetting pill Shen Yuan had personally refined and forgot her past with him.

Her memories could be erased, but the harm she had done Shen Yuan could not. To restore peace to the sect, she voluntarily accepted the exorbitant betrothal gifts sent by the Tianji Manor and agreed to leave the mountain to marry.

Shen Yuan was a once-in-a-century natural sword prodigy, the most promising young disciple of the Wushuang Sect and the one most likely to ascend.

He joined Yu Qinglan's lineage and regarded her as the most worthy of respect among masters. Then he discovered that she saw him as nothing more than a cultivation furnace.

The respect he had once felt turned to hatred. He wanted nothing more than to make her repay his humiliation in blood. But to master the Shattering Cloud Sword Art she had created, he had to bury all his hatred and pretend to be a magnanimous, obedient disciple who had never once harbored resentment.

But before he could take his revenge, he learned that Yu Qinglan was going to leave the mountain to get married.

Only when Yu Qinglan donned her wedding robes did he remember that she was not the only one who had lost her memory. He had lost his, too.

He wound the chains that had once imprisoned him around Yu Qinglan, inch by inch.

"Master once said that after keeping me imprisoned for a thousand days, she would grant me one wish."

Beneath an apricot tree, the young man's fingers brushed over her trembling back. His eyes churned with a darkness she could not understand.

He murmured, sounding almost as if he loved and hated her at once:

"Now it's time for you to keep your promise."

"Plant a Succubus in Spring," reap a battlefield of rivals in autumn. A sweet, everyone-loves-her story.

Ning Xi grew up eating meals provided by the neighbors in a small mountain village with simple, honest customs.

The village elders all felt sorry for her, an orphan with neither father nor mother. Everyone chipped in to give her a small plot of land, so she would have something to rely on.

One night, as rain poured down, Ning Xi kindly took in an old woman who had been passing by. To thank her, the woman took out three beans.

"Good child, would you like this golden bean, the silver one, or this ordinary green bean?"

Seeing that the old woman was dressed in rags, Ning Xi accepted only the ordinary green bean.

"This green one will do."

The old woman looked at Ning Xi with approval. Before they parted, she repeatedly reminded her, "That's a very good seed. Remember to water it every day."

A year later, the bean had grown into a long vine, and at last its first flower bloomed.

That night, a handsome man knocked on Ning Xi's door.

"Are you my master?" The man knelt on one knee and looked at Ning Xi reverently. "To repay your kindness, I'll do anything you ask."

Ning Xi was delighted.

"Help me plow the field."

A month later, a second flower bloomed on the vine. That night, another man knocked on Ning Xi's door and asked the same question.

Ning Xi was delighted again.

"Help me wash clothes and cook."

Another month later, the third flower bloomed.

Ning Xi was overjoyed, thinking she would never have to work again. But things unfolded in a way she had never imagined.

The three men were fighting each other, and not one of them had done any work.

"Hey, you lot! If you don't want to work, then get out!"

Thesis: May you find the one who loves you wholeheartedly, and cherish the person by your side.
