DESCRIPTION:

A blind concubine lives in the cold palace. 

The blind concubine has a snow white cat. 

Day after day, year after year, he lives quietly in the courtyard of the cold palace. 

It is as if he has already been forgotten by the entire imperial palace. 

Until one day, the young emperor accidentally chances upon him…

This is the translation of the Chinese BL Novel, Counterattack.

Let's discuss the problem with the Qi Generating Pill's value.
As mentioned previously, a pharmacist's cultivation wasn't easy. The rate of successful pill refinement wasn't high. Even though the Qi Generating Pill was the most common one, one pill was worth one gold. With such a large Gongyi Clan, not to mention a lone martial artist, the numbers of attracted martial artists were not small. If one wanted to supply the Qi Generating Pill, how could there be an unlimited amount to offer? 
Their salary was like this:
If they were of the Gongyi Clan's younger generation, a Blood Forging Realm would get one Qi Gathering Pill per month, a Bone Forging Realm got two per month, and a Meridian Condensing Realm would switch to using one Qi Linking Pill per month;

If they were a martial artist attracted to the Gongyi Clan, then a Blood Forging Realm wouldn't receive any Qi Generating Pills, a Bone Forging Realm got one Qi Generating Pill per month, and a Meridian Condensing Realm got two per month.
Even though it was like this, wanting to support so many people heavily bled the Gongyi Clan's resources. Calling this a salary was already very generous. If it was a small family, only the younger generation of the innermost core would receive this kind of treatment. It was basically impossible for outsider martial artists. 
One had to realize that medicinal pills were in short supply!
 
 
In addition, for martial artists who consumed Qi Generating Pills, no matter how gifted or extraordinary, the absorption limit was two to three pills per month. It simply wasn't possible to completely rely on Qi Generating Pills for cultivation.
However, Gu Zuo discovered that his patron could do it.
Other martial artists could digest one pill in about ten days. Gongyi Tianheng eating a pill was like throwing a pebble into the water without even the sound of a splash. It would take at most fifteen minutes for him to completely absorb it.
 
 
Perhaps this was another powerful point of the Tiandu Body?

Similarly, it was because of this that Gu Zuo dared to maintain his confidence in his patron and did his best to refine medicine like an old ox, following him on this gamble.
Ah, on second thought, he still had crazy fits of rage and jealousy…
Naturally, after Gongyi Tianheng heard Gu Zuo's proposal, he cheerfully agreed. When he saw through Gu Zuo's concealed thoughts, he smiled and didn't mention it. 
The truth wasn't what his little pharmacist imagined.
Digesting the Qi Generating Pill… The Tiandu Body definitely wasn't the reason, or rather, it wasn't the entire reason.
From the first time Gu Zuo refined pills, he obtained the top grade Qi Generating Pills. He himself hadn't yet sampled different kinds of Qi Generating Pills. So he didn't know that the Tianlong Guard under Gongyi Tianheng's administration received the benefits of a top grade Qi Generating Pill each month. Their senses couldn't be more clear.
The higher the grade of the Qi Generating Pill, the easier it was to absorb and the ampler the energy within. After using a top grade pill, being unable to use a top grade pill again was simply a kind of torture. 
Gongyi Tianheng once used a dose of high grade Qi Generating Pills, and contrasted its effects with the top grade pills.
The medicinal power of those high grade Qi Generating Pills simultaneously promoted the gathering of his true qi and also brought about a slightly woozy sensation. In the process of continuously using his cultivation method, the things that caused this woozy sensation were slowly expelled through his pores. At this point in time, he developed a theory.
Although taking medicinal pills was faster than absorbing ambient qi for cultivation, there were, nevertheless, impurities within the pills, which needed to be expelled by using a cultivation method. The higher the grade of the medicinal pill, the less impurities there were and the faster one could absorb its medicinal powers.
Martial artists in the past definitely weren't incapable of digesting even more Qi Generating Pills. Rather, they would just accumulate qi and simultaneously expel impurities. Thus, they wasted a lot of time… However, this method was still faster than simply absorbing ambient qi for cultivating, and it made martial artists scramble for medicinal pills.

Seeing Gu Zuo busily rush about, Gongyi Tianheng faintly smiled.

Soon after, there was the sound of a bang and that huge rock suddenly exploded into pieces!
Gongyi Tianheng, who stood on the side, saw this and praised: "Good!"
Gu Zuo's expression immediately turned joyous: "Young Master Tianheng, I did it!"
Tianheng laughed: "Sure enough, the Spirit Piercing Awl is fearsome. That strike just now is comparable to a full-powered strike of a Houtian stage seven martial artist. Moreover, it's completely silent. Even if it was me, if I didn��t pay complete attention from the start, I couldn't have easily discovered it." 
Gu Zuo's face reddened: "I also didn't expect that using a bit of psychic power in the Spirit Piercing Awl would have this kind of might. If I could've layered the psychic power before, it should've been even more powerful!"
The current him was now a person with the ability to defend himself! Although his martial technique was no good, the Spirit Piercing Awl could be considered an essential ambushing tool for killing and pillaging in any situation!
Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.
Tianheng asked in a gentle tone: "That Spirit Piercing Awl…"
Gu Zuo said with some pity: "The one I used no longer exists." 
He wasn't resigned to it, but he didn't think it was odd. A martial artist attacked with martial skills full of true qi, and the true qi within couldn't be reclaimed. When he examined his patron's body and condensed medicinal properties within his eyes, he used almost none of it. This was already very good, so he couldn't insist on even more.
He also wasn't a person who was too greedy.
Gongyi Tianheng pondered for a moment: "How many Spirit Piercing Awls can Ah Zuo condense with his remaining psychic power?"
Gu Zuo assessed: "Eighteen awls." 
Tianheng nodded: "Since we know about the Spirit Piercing Awl's power, Ah Zuo, you just need to upgrade your application speed. You must accomplish this move with a thought so that the Spirit Piercing Awl can travel according to your will. As for double layering or the might of several layered awls, you should take advantage of careful familiarization. In my time as a martial artist, whenever I emptied my true qi and later restored it, my tolerance grew larger and my recovery speed became faster. A great number of things are interconnected. We may assume that psychic power is also just like this."

Gu Zuo answered straightforwardly: "Rest assured, Young Master Tianheng!"
Gongyi Tianheng smiled as he ruffled his hair. He took a Qi Generating Pill and quickly went back to practicing.
Time quickly passed. In the blink of an eye, it was several months later. 
From taking one Qi Generating Pill per day, Tianheng would later take ten per day — Then dozens of pills per day. The acupoints within his body were like gluttonous monsters that were never satisfied, like whales voraciously swallowing all the ambient qi available.
This kind of spectacle was thoroughly shocking. In particular, Dragon One, who stayed beside Gongyi Tianheng from the very beginning, was beyond astonished.
Gu Zuo steadily supplied Qi Generating Pills, mostly for the Tianlong Guard — Apart from the arrangements of a small number of major affairs, all other missions were halted and changed to collecting all kinds of medicinal ingredients from across the Cangyun Empire and amassed at the villa. Because they worked cautiously, the business deals between the Ghost Division and Gongyi Tianheng were on the right track. At this time, the Ghost Division made several attempts at tracking him down, but ultimately, all clues were eliminated and vanished under the chess pieces of Tianheng's administration…
The value of Tianheng's martial strength also rose to an inconceivable degree. 
Gu Zuo clearly saw that his patron's body had already condensed four hundred fifty-nine bone pearls, with only a hundred fifty-three left. Then he'd reach his body's limits and would have to prepare to advance to the next stage.
This seemed like too much, but one only had to remember that the previous four hundred bone pearls were condensed within a brief couple of months, then one wouldn't feel it was so difficult.
Besides, as time passed, the condensation of bone pearls sped up and the stockpile of true qi increased in size.
The current situation was that the true qi within Tianheng was incomparably vigorous. He prepared to develop six sets of bone pearls within his body. With that in itself, his strength would be multiplied six times over — And his strength would be far stronger than the great majority of martial artists of the same rank. 
If the current Gongyi Tianheng went to the Ghost Division stronghold to take part in their training of killing machines, then it'd probably just be "killing people like slaughtering dogs".
What's more, Gu Zuo's progress wasn't the least bit small.
He could simultaneously carry out all three steps of the Spirit Piercing Awl. He could use Spirit Forging to quickly turn the smoke-like psychic power into gelatinous psychic power. He could use Spirit Congealing to extract the psychic power and turn it into a silver awl. And he could use the Spirit Piercing to… Gu Zuo could already achieve what Tianheng stated. The silver awl followed his will and, with a thought, he could shoot the awl from any direction, angle, or trajectory.
If you're reading this, this translation is stolen. Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden.com
He also discovered that the silver awl was merely the first stage. When he amassed countless silver awls, it formed a sharp silver needle-like device. It could bring about great destructive power that far surpassed the silver awl. 
This Spirit Piercing Needle could be used to attack physical objects as well as be turned into a partially intangible attack on an opponent's Tianfu Acupoint!
Once the Tianfu Acupoint was damaged, the opponent would be turned into an idiot!
After Gu Zuo thoroughly understood that the <<Spirit Piercing Awl>> was as awesome as the Thirteen Gates of Enlightenment, he sunk into a fit of giggles.
This was practically a weapon that could save his life! Unless he lost consciousness or if it was a Xiantian martial artist, no one could approach him! 
Finally, now he didn't lack the strength to truss up a chicken… Although he wasn't yet an adult, he finally had a sense of satisfaction in having power. Perhaps, this was the feeling of a powerful man? Even if he wasn't a warrior who fought for a cause, he was still considered to have some sense of security.
After this, Gu Zuo's enthusiasm amplified. He used his cultivation method, practiced the Spirit Piercing Awl, and refined medicine around the clock, all for the sake of nursing his patron's health — If this kind of continuous upgrading continued, then the journey back to the modern era wasn't so unattainable.

However, the time that the Blue Dragon Pool opened was fast approaching.
It was to be on the afternoon of the third day from now. 
The top eight fighters of the Clan War who previously received permission had to go to the Cangyun Imperial Palace tomorrow. They had to pay their respects to the Cangyun Emperor and accept the Royal Family's test.
Only those who were finally capable of passing were then able to get a placement!
The allotted placements of the Blue Dragon Pool were priceless. So long as a martial artist devoted their heart to the martial path, then they wouldn't easily give up.
This year, Gongyi Tianheng gave it everything he had. All of it was precisely for this one day. 
 
In the afternoon.

Dragon-Scaled Horses were gathered just outside, and the bronze chariot was made ready.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Gongyi Tianheng walked out. Dragon One and Gu Zuo walked behind him to the left and right.
In a secret location, Dragon Two lay in wait. Out in the open, two hundred Tianlong Guards stood before their horses and bowed in greetings! 
At this time, they would leave for the Gongyi mansion!
Dragon One took the lead and marched in front. He turned around and kneeled, fanaticism etched across his whole face. In a clear voice, he shouted: "We wish for the young master's great victory and return home!"
Numerous Tianlong Guards also identically kneeled: "We wish for the young master's great victory and return home!"
Gongyi Tianheng smiled: "We march!" 
Many Tianlong Guards said: "We obey — As the young master commands!"
Gu Zuo saw this clearly, and his heart welled with passion.
At long last, this day was here.
If his patron was able to succeed… He had a premonition. 
Gongyi Tianheng was just like a hidden dragon who'd been silent for so long. Once he broke through the abyss, he would soar above the highest heavens!
 
T/N: Attention to new and old readers alike. This volume has been completely edited as of May 22, 2020. I devote more of my attention to translating new chapters than editing the old ones, so it's only now that this volume is up to speed. Don't be alarmed if there are different terms moving forward.
First of all, thank you everyone for keeping with me so far. This is the final chapter of the first volume! It has been a pleasure to translate this story. For the next few days, I'll be taking the time to review, edit, and standardize my translations thus far. If there was anything you read that you feel that I could change, please let me know in the comments.
For example, I'm considering how I should be capitalizing certain named objects. Things like people, cities, or certain attacks are already capitalized, but should I extend this to all named objects? Let me know about this or other things down below. 
Second, I read each and every one of your comments. And though I don't respond, it's mostly because I want to avoid clogging up the comments section and over inflating the number of true comments. Nowadays, I usually reserve replies to direct critiques or suggested corrections.
Third, I'm not sure if it's more conducive to generating a discussion here on this blog, or creating a thread on Novel Updates. It'll be up to you guys to decide.
Finally, as this is another milestone for me, I'd like to remind everyone that this translation is based on the hard work of the original author. Please consider supporting them!

Gu Zuo: Are you sick?
Gongyi Tianheng: You have medicine?
Gu Zuo: You’re sick!
Gongyi Tianheng: If I say I’m sick, can you cure me?
Gu Zuo: If I say I have medicine, would you want it?
Gongyi Tianheng: However much you have is how much I want.
Gu Zuo: However much you want is how much I have.
Gongyi Tianheng: Then bring it all out.
Gu Zuo: …

Simply speaking, a scaredy-cat shou transmigrated and had to think of a way to survive. He had a golden finger called Medicine Refining System, but unfortunately, he didn’t have the ingredients needed to refine medicine and level up.
A great young master to an empire’s preeminent clan had a super high IQ, but his potential for cultivation was low. Unfortunately, pill refiners were too hard to develop, and weren’t restricted to his personal service. But he could acquire plenty of ingredients.
Two people, one was sick and one had medicine. Therefore, the one who was sick kept the one who had medicine, and everyone was happy.

Romance is a very popular genre in Webnovels. The first thing that come to mind when we talk about romance are the CEO novels. Even though we don't want to admit it, they are the mainstream romance stories in the Webnovel website. 

So why do people love romance stories? I hope you find the answer while reading this chapter.

----------------------------------

FattyBai: No worries, was just a bit curious. It's always amazing seeing how the Romance genre basically dominates the site.

Parasection: and CEO stories.

FattyBai: So I was sort of curious what the demographics on the reader's sex were. But yeah, it's a fair assumption to say that the ladies rule the site, lol

WWFire: Readers gender stats r ambiguous, it is manipulatable after all.

FattyBai: Unless there's this hidden group of guys who have been starving for CEO romance novels (which would actually be funny).

Parasection: But the sacred texts.

WWFire: All I see are genderless alien. *derp emoticon*

Zehell2218: @FattyBai I think I'll make fantasy romance so I can attract both.

FattyBai: I mean, it's not a bad idea, but how do you split it up? 50% romance/50% dragon ball z?


Parasection: The fuq that sounds like an abomination.

FattyBai: It does.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai No it's 80% romance 20% action. *joy emoticon*

Parasection: how does one even write romance? I don't know where to begin with that genre.

FattyBai: I'm a simple guy, I see plot and I drown it in martial arts and manly stuff. Of course, I don't know what feelings are. Can you eat them to increase your cultivation base? *think smart emoticon*

Parasection: I've never experienced romance so i'd fail the moment i'd attempt a story like that.

Zehell2218: Actually, I like to write fighting scene but without romance my reader will kill me. So...yeah I tag it as romance! *joy emoticon*

FattyBai: I fear becoming a more wholesome and fleshed out human being. Please no development.

Zehell2218: @Zenith It's ok. Just want to see if people will find this good or not. *joy emoticon*

Elyon knew that "Romance" is not his strong point. He writes a fantasy story with romance, but he can't tell if the romance will be able to attract female readers. Out of curiosity, he asked some of his fellow authors the question "Why do you read romance stories?"

Here are their answers…

Kyosei: Because I am single. 

Reili: To fill my empty void of a love life.

Minrei: Because romance let you feel what is to be loved, plus it is universal you dont need to learn magic or cultivation in order to read.

Bajj: Due to lack of romance irl.

Murakami: I read because I enjoy the friction and conflict between the FL and ML. The insistence vs resistance is naisu.

Qin: I reads romance only for ideas and info.

VlassisBehrakis: I don't read romance novels.

[A/N: Oof I asked the wrong person.]

Elyon then  ̶a̶m̶b̶u̶s̶h̶e̶d̶ asked some readers about their opinion about romance novels.

Yin: I read romance novels because I want that kind of drama to happen to me in real life. But I know it will never happen haha.

A Certain Irresistible Meowlin: I wonder why? And I do read romance novels. Though the chance of me dropping them is also the highest out of all the genres. Every so often I come across a scene that makes me just want to squeal and fangirl. 

----------------------------------

Elyon decided to dig deeper and asked a few of his senior "romance authors" some questions about their reason for writing romance stories.

The first question is… Why did you choose to write Romance Stories?

Anjeeriku: I'm comfortable writing romance stories compared to other genres. I'm a helpless romantic person and I like novels that can invoke other people's feelings.

Bajj: First of all, I like reading romance story. It was the reason why I read books before and reading other genres comes after. All in all, due to these romance fiction books, I got the opportunity to read more great books with different genre.

MishaK: That's what I read, so write that too.

Zehell2218: Because as reader, I want to read romance novel so when I write, I write romance since my motto is I write what I want to read.

Ikazainudin: The easiest genre. Everyone can relate.

End_of_Era: It wasn't a full on Romance, it was slice of life with romance which I feel was necessary with progression of the characters.

----------------------------------


The second question… When you were making your ML and FL, did you imagine yourself as the lead of your story at any given point in time?

Anjeeriku: I would be a liar if I said no. There were instances that I'd put myself in my FL's shoes. Whenever that happens, my writing feels more passionate and truthful that sometimes it was hard to know where my fl starts and where I end. 

Shen Yi, LMD's ML was based on a person I've lost, The One That Got Away so it was sometimes hard not to self-insert whenever there were scenes that need to invoke feelings from readers. 

Bajj: I believe that every character the author was making and breathing life into it, a part of him/her is added to its character. But me imagining of being the ML/FL, never. I'm too pure for that. Kek

MishaK: Yes I did but sometimes. Otherwise you can't infuse emotions in your characters. It is important to understand your characters.

Zehell2218: Yes, I imagine myself as the lead. Of course, I tweak it a bit, such as in age and appearance. But mostly, the characteristics is similar to me.

Ikazainudin: FL and ML character based on what I want to be irl. Yup. I imagine that will be my love story.

End_of_Era: Yes, my leads had some ocassional self insertion.

----------------------------------

The third question… If you were to choose some other genre aside from romance, what would you pick?

Anjeeriku: Fantasy. I always look up to those authors who can write fantasy stories/novels well. I believe writing a fantasy novel is harder than writing romance. 

[A/N: Ahem! 10 points to Griffindor!]

Bajj: Horror/thriller/Action. Read GGGB godamnit! [Good Girl Gone Bad]

MishaK: I am writing a Fantasy romance aside from regular vanilla romance *smile emoticon*

Zehell2218: Fantasy, magical realism, fan fiction.

Ikazainudin: Psychological/horror and maybe children story.

End_of_Era: The new genre I'm writing is fantasy/violent .

----------------------------------


The fourth and final question… If you were to give a message to your beloved readers, what would it be?

Anjeeriku: I'm sorry for not being inconsistent with updates. Y'all know I love you, but a little consideration and patience as I face this rough patch in my life would be very much appreciated.

Bajj: Vote me please :* mass release comes after, deal?

[A/N: Oof!]

MishaK: Be responsible in reviewing the book you are reading. Authors love to listen from their readers. So talk to them.

Zehell2218: Beloved reader, your author here is working hard to provide your daily dose so pliz pretty pliz, read my chapter using paid SS since I don't get even a penny for free SS. 

Tips: use free SS on translation novel. The translator still get money and use paid SS on original novel so we can get a bit money to continue living *wink*

Ikazainudin: I want readers to know, that love, hope and miracles exist. Be open and value each moment of your life like the MC's did.


----------------------------------

Author's Thoughts

Hello Guys! I hope you enjoyed this chapter of WWCG. Personally, I've read a few CEO novels myself. I also read some FL stories like A Slight Smile Is Devastating (Love O2O), Hidden Marriage, Doomed to be Cannon Fodder, Transmigrator meets Reincarnator, A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor, There Is an Angel in That Church (short story), Eight Treasures Trousseau, Grabbing Your Hand, Dragging you Away, A Mistaken Marriage Match: Record of Washed Grievances…

Ai~ there's a few more that I won't add to the list because it will create a wall of text. Well anyways, the reason why I read these stories is to get an idea on "WHY" the ladies love to read them.

Let's just say that it's a unique way to see a world in the eye of a lady (if you are a man of course). When done properly, the execution of the story can capture the hearts of anyone, even male readers. I believe that no matter what gender you are, as long as you find the story interesting then it doesn't matter whether you are a guy or a gal no?

Perhaps, when I'm not too busy to write my stories, I'll once again pick a romance novel to read. Hopefully, I will find another hidden gem that will bring unexpected surprises to anyone who are lucky enough to find them.

P.S I would like to thank my fellow authors, especially my senior romance authors who answered some of my questions regarding romance novels. 

To my senior authors, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Power Stones shine warm upon your face, and Spirit Stones fall soft upon your fields. (￣▽￣)ノ

P.S The Cover Drawing is not mine. I just find it nice so I used it. Full credits go to the owner.

The first questions were still pretty normal:
[How many hours do you dedicate to writing daily / weekly / monthly?]
[What have you written so far?]
[What is the average rating of your stories?]
[What were the readers' reactions?]
[Which part of your stories got the best / most / worst / fewest reactions/ratings?]
[Which part of your stories took you the shortest / longest amount of time to write?]
There were several more questions and they got a little more detailed the further he got but after twenty or so questions the content suddenly got … strange.
[Have you had a crush on someone? If yes, what was that person like? If no, what kind of person would you fall in love with?]
[Have you ever kissed someone? If yes, what kind of kiss did you share?]
[Have you been in a relationship? If yes, for how long? And how far have you gone?]
[Have you ever had sex? Were you on top or —]
Su Yan instantly stopped reading. By now, his whole face was red. Who would ask such questions when trying to set up a test for writing?!
One might suspect that this was the doing of a certain fujoshi in the headquarters of Heaven Corporation and, in fact, that wasn't totally wrong. It was just that Official Lu Shen hadn't set this up consciously. The problem was rather that she had written into the application form that the system was meant to help Su Yan further his skills and experiences. For a system related to an occupation, furthering skills would have been enough.
Now, with the addition of furthering experiences, the system had to somehow interpret this. And what were experiences related to being an author of bl stories? With the suggested prerequisite of only writing what you knew as long as you weren't an old-stager in the business, the Lovely Writing System had set 'experiencing everything related to bl' as one of the requirements for Su Yan's journey to success.
Ah, what one thoughtless entry of an official could cause …
Thankfully, Su Yan knew nothing of the inner workings of either the Heaven Corporation or the Lovely Writing System. He could only see the rather strange questions in front of him.
He seriously began to wonder if this thing was really something dirty and was just disguised as a tool to help writers. He looked over to Nie Chang and wanted to ask what he thought but finally decided against it. Nie Chang loved to tease people. If he showed him, he'd probably have to answer all these questions. Where would his face be then?
Nah, let's just answer it in case it's really something related to writing. And it's Nie Chang's notebook anyway. If something happens he can just repair it again. Yes, Su Yan had complete trust in Nie Chang's skills and didn't mind giving him a bit more to do.
He started answering the questions with a serious attitude. Who knew? It might have something to do with writing romance subplots or something like that. Unfortunately, Su Yan had to admit that he might really need some help with that. He actually had to answer most of the questions with a decisive no.
Finally, he answered the last question. He sighed with relief. Any more and he wouldn't be able to take it anymore. What was it with women nowadays? He had a stable job and, if he might say so himself, he wasn't bad-looking. Why none of them take him into consideration?
The Lovely Writing System didn't pay any attention to Su Yan's inner turmoil and just started to work:
[Processing data.]
[Setting up test.]
[Issuing task.]
The [Getting started] task was checked and a new line appeared below: [Read the following web novel and write one new scene of no more than 2000 words that features a romantic encounter.]
Su Yan's face lit up. So that strange test had really been to find out where his problems lay! Maybe romance was something a lot of people had problems with so it was one of the possible first tests? And if he had answered yes everywhere then he probably would have gotten some additional questions to figure out if he had other areas he was bad at.
Su Yan had managed to explain to himself what all this was about. It seemed perfectly normal to him but he was in for a surprise.
He opened the web novel the Lovely Writing System had provided and started with chapter 1. He didn't even read the synopsis. After all, a story chosen by this awesome program that was supposed to help him become a better author should be a great work of fiction, no?
Thus, he started reading right off the bat and tried to take note of every possible pairing. After some chapters, he began to frown. This was somehow … strange? This was obviously a romance web novel but … Why did it seem like the main pairing were two men?
The poor Su Yan who had never even heard of bl novels before was suddenly confronted with something like this. He really couldn't understand. Thus, he just read further. Maybe there would be some great revelation that that supposed 'crown prince' was, in fact, a crown princess. Hadn't he heard of that somewhere? What did they call it? Gender bender or something like that? It seemed one of his co-workers had mentioned that once. He hadn't really paid attention, though. It just wasn't the kind of story he would like.
But the web novel suggested by the system seemed to lean toward the funny side anyway so maybe the author had thought that would get a few good laughs from the readers? Su Yan read chapter after chapter until he hit the end of volume 1 but the big revelation never came.
Frowning, he went back to the front page and had a look at the tags. There were some and most of them weren't anything he knew. What was that 'yaoi' and what did the acronym 'bl' mean?
Su Yan opened Baidu and typed that strange acronym in. Then, he got the second shock that night. He had clicked on the images and videos since he thought he might get it faster that way. Indeed he did. There were actually quite a few search results and all of them had one thing in common: They showed two men. And they were doing it with each other.
Su Yan forcefully closed the notebook. Somehow, he felt corrupted now.

Su Yan always wanted to be an author. Being moved by his determination (Well, in fact, she was just an avid reader of his fan-fictions and wanted him to write full time …) official Shen Lu grants the aspiring author a system: The Lovely Writing System!
Finding a strange app on his beloved notebook, Su Yan is sure he has fallen prey to a hacker. But why is this strange app issuing tasks related to his favorite hobby? Wait … What? He is supposed to write BL?! And what is this shitty task about experiencing story immersion?! No! He’d rather not become an author if that means he also has to become a shou!

Follow Su Yan on his path to becoming the world’s greatest BL author … and to reluctantly becoming a beloved shou thanks to a shitty Lovely Writing System!

Release schedule: The story is finished.

Shi Sheng was an author. An author who loved cliff-hangers and dropped countless books. A stepmother-styled author who killed off countless protagonists. On this beautiful day, she finally understood something.

Authors who write cliff-hangers will be punished.

She was currently squatting in front of a book-shaped crystal half the height of a person and suffering from a bit of a headache.

She had clearly been 'debating' with her readers about how the male lead was turned gay by one of the side characters but said side character was 'straightened out' by the female lead. This of course led to the male lead being forced to live a lonely life of misery. So… How did she end up here?

'I want to go back!'

[I have already stated the conditions for returning. You have 5 seconds to consider. If you have not decided by then, you will be terminated.] A robot-like emotionless voice sounded.

Shi Sheng, "…"

'As expected of a System! Terminate this, terminate that… How cruel ah!'

At this moment, a countdown timer was displayed on the crystal screen, [5… 4… 3…]

"Okay, okay!" For the sake of survival, Shi Sheng surrendered all her dignity.

'I want to go back to write cliff-hangers… with twisted plots… and kill off my protagonists… *sob* Who told me to be a stepmother author?'

Being an author, she couldn't be any more familiar with System-genre novels. After all she had once written- *cough* She seemed to have dropped that one. But she was still familiar with the genre!

At this moment, the countdown on the screen disappeared, to be replaced by a few lines of data:

Name: Shi Sheng

Morality Points: -100,000

Contribution Points: 0

"Nani? Just these? Where are the 'wisdom', 'battle power' and 'mental strength' stats? This doesn't fit with the System-genre! Also, why is my Morality Points at -100,000?"

Looking at that long string of 0s, Shi Sheng got even more of a headache. She had to eliminate this many 0s in order to return… When was she going to get back?!

'I didn't kill people or commit arson! Why is it so far in the negatives?!'

[Authors are gods. They grant their characters everything, from their life to their personality as well as create a world. And these worlds will grant heaven-defying luck to those protagonists.

However, not every protagonist has the morals and character to use it wisely. The result being the deaths of the side characters, resulting in resentment which causes the collapse of their worlds.

Your job, as the Host, is to enter these worlds as a side character and fulfill their wishes in order to clear out their resentment.]

'To put it simply, the protagonists aren't being good protagonists!'

"You still haven't told me why my morality points are at negative 100,000?" This was more important since it concerned when she would be able to return.

[Once the Host's Morality Points have sunken below negative 200,000, the Host will be terminated.]

'Nani?! There's a limit?! You've gotta be kidding me!'

[Initialising transfer…]

"Fuck!" 'Why is this System so abnormal? Hey, aren't you going to tell me the reward for completing tasks? Don't I get a Beginner's Package? Aren't you going to give me some guidance? Also, where are my cheats?'

Shi Sheng only had time to curse before darkness engulfed her vision.

"Young Miss, we have arrived." A delicate female voice sounded from beside Shi Sheng's ear.

Shi Sheng's eyes shot open and she found herself sitting in a car. A woman was standing outside the open car door and had bowed down to look at her.

At this point, Shi Sheng was very speechless.

'That damned System didn't even explain anything properly before tossing me into a scenario? Fuck I am so giving a bad customer review!'

"Young Miss? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Seeing that Shi Sheng's expression wasn't quite right, she immediately got a bit anxious. "Would you like to rest in the car for a bit? The party won't start for a while yet."

"En." 'Calm down, calm down. I(bbb)[1] am probably just using someone else's body right now.'

The woman's words granted Shi Sheng a chance to go over the plot and the memories of this body.

The woman closed the car door and went back to sit in the passenger's seat. Shi Sheng hurriedly shut her eyes to receive the plot.

[Do you want to look at the plotline as well as this body's memories? Yes/No]

System's icy-cold robot voice filled her mind and Shi Sheng took a deep breath before replying in her mind, 'Yes'.

[Transferring plotline…]

Shi Sheng's brain felt like it had suddenly been shoved full of pieces of iron; dulled, heavy and aching very badly as countless pictures flashed in her mind. She gritted her teeth so as not to let out a cry of pain, lest the person sitting in the seat in front notice.

The original owner of this body was called Xu Chengyue. She was born into a wealthy family who doted on her excessively. She had gotten engaged to Nangong Jing just as she entered University.

The Xu family naturally could not compare with the Nangong family in terms of wealth. That she even managed to get engaged with Nangong Jing at all was due to an agreement between the older generation of their respective families. However, Nangong Jing did not like this new fiancée of his and so had always given her the cold shoulder.

However, Xu Chengyue truly liked Nangong Jing. Despite how she had been rejected so many times, she had never given up. The pride and conservatism typical to a rich family's daughter were all hidden away by her whenever she faced him. She remembered Nangong Jing's every like and dislike as well as his every sentence.

Xu Chengyue thought that her efforts would manage to move Nangong Jing one day. However, even until Su Yiyi showed up, Nangong Jing never liked her back.

The cold and aloof Nangong Jing was a warm and considerate person to Su Yiyi. Xu Chengyue was not willing to just give up and admit defeat so she confronted Su Yiyi with her status as Nangong Jing's fiancée and warned her to distance herself from Nangong Jing.

Once she knew that Nangong Jing had a fiancée, Su Yiyi began to distance herself from him. Once Nangong Jing found out it was because Xu Chengyue had confronted Su Yiyi that she was keeping her distance from him, he wanted to break their engagement.

Of course, Xu Chengyue was unwilling to. She cried and put up a huge fuss yet none of it changed Nangong Jing's mind about dissolving the engagement.

In the meantime, Su Yiyi had been cajoled back to Nangong Jing's side. When faced with Xu Chengyue's accusations, she would always act like she was wronged, like an innocent white flower and always expressed that she would leave Nangong Jing. However, even after saying all these, nothing changed. If anything, the two became even more outrageously open with their flirting.

Unable to bear it any longer, Xu Chengyue revealed Su Yiyi's existence to Nangong Jing's parents. Su Yiyi's background was only that of a normal household so his parents, quite predictably, didn't agree to their relationship.

Nangong Jing's patience for Xu Chengyue had finally dropped to rock bottom. Her revealing Su Yiyi's existence to his parents was the final straw which caused him to make a move on the Xu family. The Xu family faced utter bankruptcy. Due to Nangong Jing's unspoken warnings, no one dared to lend a helping hand to the Xu family. Some even started throwing stones down the well.

Xu Chengyue's parents died in a car accident, leaving Xu Chengyue to clean up the mess that the Xu family had become. Having been a young lady pampered all her life, how would supporting the fallen Xu family on her own be easy?

So, Xu Chengyue went to plead Nangong Jing for help. However, she hadn't managed to see Nangong Jing, but met Su Yiyi instead. Due to her grief and heartbreak, Xu Chengyue's mind was in a muddled state. This lead to her not standing stably and bumping into Su Yiyi, causing her to fall down the stairs. Who knew that Su Yiyi had been pregnant with Nangong Jing's child and this fall caused her to have a miscarriage.

Nangong Jing was stunned and enraged. This matter caused the last bit of feeling between them to completely vanish. The Xu family completely fell into decline and Xu Chengyue was humiliated to death by the creditors who the Xu family had owed money too.

On the moment of her death, Xu Chengyue realised that her fate was because she had fallen for Nangong Jing. Had she been more logical and stopped chasing him earlier when it was clear he wouldn't like her back, the Xu family wouldn't have gone bankrupt and her parents probably wouldn't have died. She probably also wouldn't have had such a miserable fate.

[1] The raws state '本宝宝' and as with all addresses beginning with the word '本' or 'ben', it is meant to address oneself, often in a lofty manner and to separate oneself from the 'peasantry'. In this case, Shi Sheng, is somewhat calling herself 'This baby over here'. However, since it sounds awkward and would probably ruin the flow of the translation, I will just use I but differentiate it with the short form of the pinyin, '(bbb)' or just leave it out unless the context requires me to differentiate it.

 


Author's note:

About the main character: Shi Sheng is not a good person. She has a grudge against society. If she's not doing well she'll damn well pull others down with her. Not all protagonists are good people. You have been warned.

Dear readers that have been reading this translated novel. I have read all the comments and reviews from all of you. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. However, I would like to clarify one thing. This is a translated novel, and yes it is true that I got it from novel updates But I do not copy any of the translation from the translator webpage. And as a reader said that I stole from that webpage, I am sorry, I have read the novel long ago from the webpage but the translator has been on hiatus for long, and I am also waiting for her update but because of the waiting is too long, I decided to translate it myself. So, I started translated using this platform. Therefore, it is not allowed to translate the novel, I will completely cut of this translation novel and give way for the other webpage. Hence, I am still new to this industry of writing, translating, and reading, so please forgive me for my mistakes. Sincerely, thank you.<3..

p/s: I am not a native English speaker neither I can speak Chinese, what I translate is actually from google translate and with me editing the sentence structure.Heheheheh.
