1. 1 从 Once Upon a Time, There Was a Mountain in Search of Immortals 从前有座寻仙山 Flying Bird Seal飞鸟印Ancient Style1.3M WordsCompleted Everyone in Lianzi Town at the foot of Xunxian Mountain knows there are no immortals on the mountain, and that immortals have never existed in this world. Du Yu figures he wouldn't object if a woman dressed in white and riding a white deer were called an immortal. Still, he doesn't think any immortal should need a disciple to wash her undergarments, or be so lazy that she spends all day lying motionless in a wicker chair. In his heart, his master is an immortal. 0Tickets8.2MClicks43kFavorites

   The writing is good, no major flaws. I'll add a review after I finish reading.

2. 2 差 I Almost Became a Hero 差点成了英雄 He Xue合雪丶Western Fantasy608k WordsCompleted Would you be willing to save the whole world for the person you love? 0Tickets5.5MClicks31.7kFavorites

   Curator note

   A harem anime with romance elements. The male lead is initially portrayed as a weakling who outsmarts the female lead, possessing various superpowers that allow him to do as he pleases, though these are mainly used for flirting (?). The ending feels rushed, but overall it's good.

3. 3 谎 After the Lies Fell Apart, I Faced Their Shivs 谎言破碎后我面临了她们的柴刀 Stealing a Fleeting Life偷来浮生Campus371k WordsOngoing "Lin Yan, let me finish this surgery for you. Then you'll belong to me. Be good, it won't hurt." "I love you, and I think you love me too. We should be together forever, so stay in this room and don't go outside. It's dangerous out there." "You're my friend. You shouldn't have to share me with anyone else. Here's a little punishment. I hope you'll remember: if you do that again... you'll die." Once the lies fell apart, everything began to crumble. The girls' intense, obsessive love slowly drowne 0Tickets2.4MClicks13.7kFavorites

   Curator note

   The previous book by the author of "Rebirth" had a terrible ending. The female protagonists are Gu (who shares the same surname as the female protagonist in the next book, so they might have some kind of relationship), Bai, and Su. The author attempts to use the second person to describe the female protagonists' psychology, and this is a trial work for psychological description in the next book. The male lead is a seemingly innocent but actually cunning character. The plot has good transitions and climaxes. Gu and Su's story has only just begun (?), And it's uncertain whether Bai's story will have any foreshadowing.

4. 4 泡 Instant Noodles, Twisted Love, and Everything About Us 泡面和扭曲的爱和我们的一切 Ghost Serpent鬼之蛇Campus1.4M WordsOngoing I ran into that girl at the supermarket, not yet realizing what fate had in store for me. I think people have no choice but to rely on others to survive. But in that moment, the girl took my hand, stardust glittering in her eyes. She said, "Let's escape from here." 0Tickets720.6kClicks3.6kFavorites

   Curator note

   First-person narration, rambling psychological descriptions, and the style of Japanese light novel translations require readers to be on the same wavelength; it offers a high degree of selectivity.

5. 5 哪 Where Can You Survive Without Sharing the Bed? 哪儿有不侍寝也能活的地方？ Bu Dang埗攩Western Fantasy484k WordsCompleted Forced to leave my home, I was surrounded by sorrow. Just when I'd finally enjoyed a few peaceful years, disaster struck again. My sweet, sensible “fiancees” were completely different after we'd been apart for a year... My dear imperial sister, upon learning that we were siblings by different fathers and mothers, started making a huge fuss about our marriage in Beidi... The female emperor of Chongling sent a hundred miles' worth of wedding gifts, which came rumbling all the way to the border... 0Tickets2.6MClicks18.7kFavorites

   I'll continue updating next time.

6. 6 我 The Girl I Love and the Girl Who Loves Me 我爱的女孩和爱我的女孩 Priest of the Troubled Times乱世祭司Campus618k WordsCompleted In 2018, I returned to my hometown for university. There, I met my "older sister," the person I fell in love with at first sight, and even my ex-girlfriend again. To avoid getting hurt again, I spent every day saying silly things to girls and keeping my distance from everyone. But the girls wanted more than that... (Dedicated to those who unexpectedly came of age.) 0Tickets221.6kClicks2.4kFavorites

   Curator note

   The story is told in the first person. The male protagonist and his sister are both somewhat introverted and rely on each other for survival. The psychological descriptions are very nuanced. This shouldn't be considered finished yet; I look forward to future updates.

7. 7 重 Even After Being Reborn, I Can't Escape Her Love 重生后也难逃她的爱 Stealing a Fleeting Life偷来浮生Campus1.0M WordsCompleted (Yandere story. Complete, so feel free to read and subscribe.) In his previous life, he was timid, incapable, and insecure, and grew increasingly distant from the people around him. But he had a beautiful, sweet girlfriend who treated him with tenderness. After they broke up, that girlfriend, who had been gentle with him for years, killed him with a single stab. He was reborn. Only after living again and seeing the terrifying truth gradually emerge did he realize that his downfall had been caref 0Tickets27.3MClicks139.7kFavorites

   Curator note

   The female lead is Xia He Gu, and she is characterized by strong possessiveness. In the early stages, she pretends, and in the middle stages, she is imprisoned and flirted with him. The imprisonment part is very psychologically impactful. (I started following this book from the previous one, "Lies." My initial impression of Gu was similar to Bai's, but the male lead is more delicate than in the previous book.)

8. 8 我 I'm Not That Naive a Child 我不是那样天真的孩子 Xing Xi星矽Campus78k WordsOngoing I realized that whenever I write in my diary, I always record dirty, filthy, hideous things. But what else can I do if I don't write them down? I'll go mad. Men who abuse girls deserve eternal damnation. What about women who abuse boys? I don't know. All I know is that I'm becoming cruel too. I'm guilty. This is the punishment I deserve. I can't write anymore. She's come to see me. I can only pray she won't do anything outrageous, won't hide behind some high-minded excuse again, and won't say an 0Tickets301.6kClicks2.8kFavorites

   Curator note

   It contains some personal biases, the writing is good, but the story was abandoned right after it started, so let's leave it for now.

9. 9 分 After We Broke Up, the Beautiful Girls Started Pursuing Me Like Crazy 分手后我却被美少女们疯狂追求 Luo Xiao落咲Campus600k WordsCompleted Ever since he met the idol he admired, Qian Luo noticed that the girls around him were getting stranger and stranger. Like the idol, whose possessiveness grew stronger by the day. Like his childhood friend, who turned from a fan into a hater because of his admiration for the idol. Like his former school beauty girlfriend, who started following him around. The young man's everyday life is gradually falling apart under the weight of their passionate "love."

   Curator note

   A blend of dark fantasy elements and pure love (?). Those who like yandere characters might want to give it a try.

10. 10 令 Your Buyback Price Is 2,100 Yuan 令爱的回购价是两千一百元 Xiao Yan硝衍Sci-Fi2.6M WordsOngoing The neon lights of Zion flicker on as girls wearing Santa hats chat by the roadside. In two days, it will be the last Christmas of the 2030s. This is an interconnected era where AI technology has become accessible to the whole world, and information devices keep everything connected. And I, an AI tuner, bought my own daughter at a black market selling cracked software. 0Tickets1MClicks5.8kFavorites

    Curator note

    A sci-fi slice-of-life story with an AI theme, it's heartwarming and has been gathering dust on my bookshelf for a long time. I'll add a review after I read it.
