Suki and Nico are best friends that are in love with each other. Both thinking the other doesn't see them in a romantic way. Suki is an author, while Nico is a soccer player. What do you think? Will they make a good couple?

The totally romantic book about a bunch of kids who do space things.  It awesome, you should read it, because this is the most romantic book you will read on this site lol.  Also follow my Wattpad account “@mr_writer999” for more totally romantic books.

this chapter is specifically for notes about reader, about this book, and background knowledge on scp's if needed by the reader. my descriptions on the scp's are short, just having the necessary information. if you want the full descriptions, find them on the scp foundation's website. 

notes and stuff that readers need to read for background will be lowercase and the actual story will be normal. [REDACTED] chapters are author's notes or chapters not related to the book.

in case some don't know, a thaumiel in the scp foundation is an scp that assists in keeping other scp's locked away or help learn more about an scp thanks to their abilities. 

reader will always be referred to as scp-1768, the original scp-1768 being a crack scp, literally. the original scp is a trope on the whole "step on a crack, and you break your mother's back" thing. what type of scp the reader is (safe, euclid, keter, or just thaumiel) will depend on the chapter.

in certain chapters, the reader might be a doctor or a guard or a random human for story purposes, and i will specify which chapters those are. 

some scp's will be a platonic love and other's might be romantic love, it depends on the scp and logically if a romantic relationship could happen with the scp.

also with certain scp's, the love will not always be a good and healthy love. there will be topics like obsession, abuse, stalking and things that pertain the yandere trope. some chapters will include dark topics like murder, ****, suicide and other things bad. i will put a warning on the chapter and what it will include, but it is up to you to not read those if they could trigger you.

some chapters may have a title. for instance, 073's oneshot has a title, "His Touch". it's based on the theme of what his touch feels like for the reader, and not in a sexual way, jesus people. like how his touch is scary, then it's comforting. that type of thing. most won't have titles unless they have an actual plot to it.

you have a fascination with abandoned places and demons, and your brother had just happened upon an abandoned above-ground bunker with a history of demons. so you go exploring, intrigued by the demonic stories.

but you accidentally set free two demons locked away in this abandoned bunker. one seemed to take a liking to you, and the demon was nice to you.

you were a naive little one, awfully sympathetic to the demon that was locked away for many years. maybe you liked him? time would tell.

With a lighthearted atmosphere, the three delved into knowing each other more; gone was the previous feeling of agitation of making sure that the first impression wouldn't end up in turmoils. 

Han Taiyi was doing most of the talking while Chu Lizheng would occasionally add something to her stories and nod when she would look at him for affirmation. 

Lillie listened earnestly as Han Taiyi tells her of the things that happened in the academy since she left and gratify her questions with almost truthful answers.

"So, for how long were you married? How did you two met? Do you have children already? Oh my god, are you pregnant—not to be rude or not that I'm saying you're—"

"One question at a time." Chu Lizheng was quick to cover his friend's mouth before she could complete what she was about to say. He came closer to her ear and muttered, "You were being rude."

"I'm sorry!" 

Chu Lizheng resisted the urge to facepalm. 

Lillie laughed, "No, no, it's alright. To answer your questions; we've been married for almost a year now—"

"Oooh! Newlyweds?!"

"—and he's actually my childhood friend—"

"Aww, so romantic!"

"Taiyi, don't cut her off."

"—we have no children and I'm not pregnant yet, sadly." Lillie finished, not bothered by Han Taiyi's interposes between her sentence. 

Her last answer seemed to have saddened Han Taiyi. Well, Lillie had casted a crestfallen expression that's why she did, too. 

The expression was, by far, the most genuine one she ever made since she wore this fake face. 

"Don't worry, you and your husband are still young and new to marriage life. People will understand that you two are still on the honeymoon phase. They wouldn't expect you to have a kid early...maybe." Han Taiyi beamed, trying her best to send her positivity to their new friend. 

"Don't add maybe." Chu Lizheng sighed. 

"Anyhow, I'm sure you'll be blessed with one soon enough! It's guaranteed—just do more of that bedroom—"

"Alright, Taiyi." Chu Lizheng covered her mouth once again. "I'm sure she already knows that part."

Lillie observed their relationship with amusement. The smile that she kept on her face the whole time didn't feel heavy anymore as she finds herself genuinely enjoying their company. 

She likes these two.

"Speaking of which, where is your husband?" Han Taiyi noted just now that the other talk of the town was missing. 

"He's at our cabin, he'll join us shortly."

"His name is Jun Jihuo, isn't it? I don't think I've heard of his name in the Academy before." This sentence just proved that Han Taiyi was one of the people who was eavesdropping earlier at the harbor because Lillie haven't said Ethan's fake name to them yet. 

Han Taiyi realized her slip-up as her breath was stuck in her throat and heat crept to her face. In her mind, she was crazily pulling her hair and spewing all of the very, very colorful words she knows. 

Thankfully, Grand Disciple Life spared her from further embarrassment and didn't pried into it. "He didn't attended the Academy." She said. "His family moved at another country to pursue his study on business management."

"Aw, that's a shame. You two would've been the cutest couple at school—"

"If the school ever allows it, that is." Chu Lizheng chimed.

Han Taiyi's head dropped. "Ay, you're right."

"But you guy's love story is really romantic!" Han Taiyi gushed, holding her face dreamily. "I would like that kind of love story with my future hubby too. Imagine being separated from your childhood friend, who was also your first love. Then when the two of you reunited after many years, the flame of love persists to burn brightly. And while catching up, you two confessed your undying love for one another and decided to get married! It's as if it came straight out of a romance novel."

"You might've changed a few details and exaggerated the story too much. Also, who would marry a brute like you—oof?!" Han Taiyi karate chopped Chu Lizheng's side. 

"I wasn't talking about Ah Ming's love story! It was from a book I read before." Han Taiyi glared, her hand clenched into a fist. "And who are you calling a brute, you sissy boy?!"

Lillie was silent. 

Unnoticeably, she bit the inside of her cheek—but not out of anger, rather, out of sheer amusement at the accuracy. Her's and Ethan's love story really did came from a cheesy romance novel she read once when she was a teen—with, more or less, details rewritten to make it sound realistic and believable. 

While they were brainstorming an anecdote for their fake background, that certain book just popped up from her mind. Lillie thought it was perfect, so she adapted it.

It was nice to know that this new friend of hers share the same interest of her young self. Hmm...reading those kinds of novels again was actually not a bad idea, now that she think of if. She could probably get a few...lessons that might help her 'tremendously' improve her relationship with Ethan.

“Mr. Li, please keep your hands to yourself.” 

“You’re my wife, so why won’t you spoil me a bit?”

“You want me to spoil you?”

“Yes.”

“Then here’s my credit card, go shopping.”

“...”


***


An aloof man married an even more aloof woman. Ethan Li struggles to make his wife fall for him while Lillie Bai struggles to free herself from his ‘clumsy’ hands. 

“If you don’t get your hands off me, I’m going to cut them off!”

“But then I won’t get to keep you warm!”

"Why isn't she a fan of office romance, by the way?"
Tohru James looked up from the sofa towards the speaker. He was a man in his late twenties with a playful demeanor. Alex Li, Hong Kong's business king grinned at him as he stood behind Kang Jinho with his cue stick, waiting for his turn.
"They're a natural phenomenon, aren't they?" he added with a wink.
"Well, not all are office playboys like you, you know?" their eldest, Park Yushin, a handsome man in his late thirties teased.  
"That's right big bro Alex. An ultimate playboy like you can't understand," Michael Chen, another hunk in his late twenties teased.
The others in their group, Liam Kang, Alvin So, Jason Tan, Peter Choi, Henry Song, and Jung Yunho, all dashing and successful young men joined in on the bullying. After all, among all of them, Alex was the Casanova with a reputation – but that was before he met and married his wife.
"Hey, stop ganging up on me and just answer the question," Alex countered as he pointed at Tohru. "We're trying to help you out here, Little Brother. But we can't do that if we don't know the history."
With that kind of reasoning, of course, nobody would try and tease him anymore. Tohru James, on the other hand, sighed heavily, and so the others' interest in knowing the story became stronger. All eyes were on their youngest, waiting for him to speak. They all knew that after Yanee Lee did her interview, Tohru immediately had someone investigate her background to know more about her. Why?
The lovesick fool couldn't ask the girl about herself in the entire week they spent time together during the interview…
"Well?" Peter prompted, and Tohru sighed again.
They were right anyway. He couldn't keep things from them since they'd literally crossed continents to help him out. Most of these men were abroad on their business trips when their wives called and asked them to give their youngest the "godly assist". Well, Tohru also knew they mostly got threatened by their wives too if they didn't cooperate, but nevertheless, he appreciated them.
All ten men were his big brothers – close friends he treated like family.
"Bad experience," Tohru James answered blandly.
When they talked about relationships during the interview, Yanee had immediately unknowingly shot his plans of normal courtship. The moment she said she's not interested in romance – most especially the ones at the workplace, Tohru got curious as to why. To understand her better, he had resorted to a security agency to check her background.
Lo and behold, the girl he had taken an interest in was highly allergic to romantic relations due to a jerk at her former office. She had been green in the field of work and romance then. She had started working at a small publishing company in Nagoya and was assigned to help out at an editor's office for her training.
"A former superior took advantage of her naivety in her former work. She fell in love but realized too late she was nothing but a game to him,"Tohru told his friends with a grim expression.
"What a jerk," Henry commented with a scowl.
"The guy flirted shamelessly but he was already engaged to be married," Tohru continued the story blandly.
"Death," Peter announced. "Do you want us to kill the jerk?"
"Why would you bother?" Jinho countered. "If the guy wasn't a jerk then Yanee would have been with him and our Little Brother's love life would be nonexistent."
Tohru sighed. He already thought about that. He initially wanted to hunt down the guy and punish him on Yanee's behalf, but didn't because if he was a nice guy then she wouldn't have transferred to Tokyo where they met.
And she would have been another man's girl right now.
Tohru read in the report that Yanee was obviously taken with the guy and worked really hard for his sake. He also read that she fell into depression when he got married.
"Anyway, what are we going to do again?" Alvin asked.
Among all the guys, he was the only one whose wife was not able to explain things well. He just knew that Tohru needed help, but as to why and how, he had no idea.
"Yunjae and the girls will be doing interviews with Yanee for the book anthology. It's called Office Diaries," Yushin explained.
"And the book is for?"
"It's to make Yanee realize that Office Romance can be real by sharing our stories," Jason quipped as he popped a cracker in his mouth and chewed. "We're going to be characters in a book."
Alvin was amazed as he looked at Tohru. "You really are publishing this book?"
Tohru snorted and nodded his head. "It's going to be a secret project, alright? Can you imagine my name having to do with anything romantic?"
All men in the room shook their heads. Tohru James was a celebrity editor, but he had never, ever made a project related to romance before. His cool image would be forever shattered.
"Poor girl. She'd be mad when she realizes what she's working hard for," Alvin commented.
Kang Jinho, however, had a different take on the situation. "She's working hard to realize that happiness can be found with her boss – the boss who's crazy in love with her."
"Not bad," Alvin remarked afterwards. "What else do you need Little Brother?"
With this Tohru smiled. "Your wives already arranged for everything. All I need is for that woman to notice me," he said sulkily, making everyone laugh.
"Well, good luck on that," Jason stated, just as Tohru's phone rang.
Tohru saw Yanee's name on the caller ID and he signaled for the guys to be quiet. "Yes?"
"Boss, is there some kind of a mistake here?"
Yanee's voice sounded confused, making Tohru smile. By now, she's already at the hotel, and she's probably wondering why she's being treated, first class.
"What mistake?" He kept his tone casual and cool, making his big brothers smile.
"The accommodations are over the top. I feel like Cinderella here," she confessed, making his smile bigger as he continued to listen to her story about the manager personally picking her up from the airport and so on.
"Don't worry. The accommodation's all from our sponsor. They're eager for this project so you have to work hard in return," he added as he gave a salute to Yushin, the sponsor who owned Grand Blue Hotels.
After that, Yanee seemed to calm down and said goodbye.
"She's freaking out?"Yushin asked with amusement dancing in his eyes.
"Big Sis Jisoo gave her the presidential suite. Who wouldn't freak out?"Tohru laughed as he reached for his drink and raised his glass.
The others followed suit. "To the greatest project of Tohru James," Kang Jinho announced, and they all clinked their glasses for the toast.  


An Office Romance Anthology...

Yanee Lee was a budding lifestyle writer. She was always aiming to become the best in her chosen field. Sadly, a brutal take over in the publishing company happened just as she was about to get it big. 

Worse, she found her dream job snatched away from under her nose, and she was transferred to the novel department with an ultimatum handed out by the new cold-hearted Editor-in-Chief: Write an anthology of work-related romance that would sell or get out!

With the help of her friends and family, Yanee would go on an adventure to research about the best stories for her series: The Office Diaries. 

Join Yanee as she interviews many different people, and learn about different tales of love and life. 

Who knew, through this, she would also find her own love story in the form of her irritating boss, the Editor-in-Chief who gave her the ultimatum, Tohru James?


update schedule: 2-5 chapters/week

As I previously said , the purpose of this book is to free myself . From my thoughts . By thinking them over before writing them , and analyzing them with the cold reasoning Sherlock Holmes himself uses . Without being emotional . Because everything that is emotional is opposite to that cold judgement . I know one of the chapters made me cry so bad , but that is because that wound is this open . It hasn't healed yet . And it won't so soon . But the others were long healed . I just wanted to remember and to live throught those moments again . Those were made to make me more understandable by you , my reader , and to feel like I'm really getting rid of any hate for them . 
This is the first book I've ever published , and I'm doing it every day . However , this isn't the first time I write my thought . You name it : diary , notepad , lines , songs , poems . The most disturbing ones were for the notepad on my computer . I usually cried while writing them , for I put my very heart and opinion into them . But as time flew , I deleted some of them , scared someone could find them , but even more because they were impulses . That short impulse made me feel so many emotions , which gradually calmed me by writing them . So I deleted them . I kept only 2 . Which are my general opinion about daily topics . I will gradually repost them here , so you can see how a short impulse can generate so many words and so many emotions . 
This book also serves as an exercise itself . Funny , right ? It's like a track daily diary , were I put my most personal opinions and give the earnest pieces of advice , leaving a mark on this earth and life , while learning how to love myself . It's the evidence that I'm trying everyday to stop procrastinating , to growing , to glowing , and to improving more other things . This is also my way of communicating deeper topics , which I cannot bring myself to say with my own mouth . As a surprise , this is my first attempt of writing something freely , before getting into designing characters . I want to make a story composed 100% by me . I don't aspire to be a miracle writer , like JK Rowling , but at least I can do something that pleases me , and others , without feeling like I should put the latter one on a pedestal . How I actually do . I don't want to pursue a writing life , because in the future I would be feeding some mouths , so I need to make a living . I'm not saying writers don't earn much , but before that there are lots of ups and downs , and I need to take care of people who took care of me . 
So what kind of book would you be interested in ? A thriller ? A drama ? A romantic comedy ? Strange enough , I'm an incurable romantic , but also an action lover . Be prepared for everything . 
Just you wait . Tell me the blessing you had today . For me , it might be the chance to make things as I want them to be . For being completely in control . For having parents that understand that I can purchase anything wisely . 

a book without a genre . it's genre depends on you . if you are in love , it'll be romance . if you are sad , it'll be a tragedy. if you are happy , it'll be a comedy . it's not a will nor a diary , but it's made to free both the writer , and the reader .

This beautiful line was probably done by Miss Margaret. It seemed the note was never sent out, so this Augustin did not know that Margaret loved him too. The unspoken love was buried here forever, never to see light again.
An image appeared in Angor's mind. Two lovers, who adored each other, could not express their love for some reason. In the end, a disaster came and separated them forever, leaving no fruit, but a wilted and priceless sentiment behind.
These notes told the brief but romantic story of two secret lovers. Unfortunately, the story did not have a happy ending.
Angor commented "how destinies fool people around" and put the notes back.
Angor was an outsider. The Nether City[1] was discovered tens of thousands of years ago, so the lovers' story had to come from that age as well, if not earlier. There was no point minding the grand finale of such an old story.
Nothing else worth noting in these letters. He needed to search the other places.
Angor checked around Margaret's room again. He did not find anything, but he had a question about some details in the room.
Ever since he walked the stairs and explored the rooms, most objects rotted away or decayed over time, apart from some special items.
However, he did not find anything like that in this room. The surface of the desk was bright and clean like new, and the silk blanket on the bed was smooth and comforting to the touch, which still released a mild fragrance. Even the more fragile items like clothing and make-up powders were in good condition as if Margaret was caring for herself just a moment ago.
Did time show mercy here? Or did the Nightmare Realm "projected" the place like this? He would never figure these out now.
Angor left Margaret's room and entered the other bedroom. Telling from the decorations, this belonged to the original owner of the "house".
Angor searched the room for quite a while without finding anything. Being someone who lived in a noble family for many years, he believed the bedroom of a big family should have somewhere to hide things. His deceased father had such a secret section in his bedroom to place valuables.
This was why Angor did not stop looking despite not finding anything in his first attempt.
In the end, he did find a secret passage.
It was located under the bed, hidden under a square cover. A deep and dark tunnel.
Angor crouched into the tunnel and reached a concealed place soon. It was narrow, about three or four square meters. There were a bookshelf and some unknown items inside.
This had to be a "hidden stash" of the owner. With a bit of excitement, Angor went to the bookshelf first.
There were three levels on the bookshelf, full of books. Angor picked up a random one called Comments on How to Extract Valuable Materials (1).
"An alchemy book… Teacher didn't have this one," Angor thought to himself and read several pages. There was deep alchemy knowledge in the book, intended for experienced wizards.
Angor took out some more books, which were all alchemy ones. Most of them were valuable, unique copies which could not be found in Sunders' collection.
He was filled with joy. Now, this was an unexpected treasure!
After recording all of the books, Angor realized they were more valuable than he thought. Some of the alchemy theories were only applicable to legendary wizards or someone in higher ranks. He was sure these books were beyond priceless. Whoever could have collected these?
After finishing the books, Angor walked to the other items with a happy mood. He did not know what these were before, but after seeing some of the alchemy information in the books, he recognized that these things were mostly related to alchemy applications. High-quality ones.
It was a pity that he could not take them away. For one, they might just disappear like all the other previous items. Besides, they were pretty large, he could not possibly carry them with him.
So he had to give up in the end. He was still happy about acquiring valuable books.
Leaving the bedroom, Angor stepped into the last room on the second floor.
The room was to the left. Angor knew that nobles tended to regard "left" as "important", so he was most interested in this room.
The first thing that came into his view in the room was a large bookcase.
Angor's eyes shined. The last room was a study!
The design was simple. One bookcase, one desk, several oil paintings on the wall. Angor rushed to the bookcase and opened its cover doors. However, he was disappointed after checking some of the books.
There were a lot of books. But… most of them were official files about the Nether City, such as construction approval documents, gardening files, books about the arrangement of main traffic roads, and city defense structures. These occupied the entire bookcase.
Angor sighed and returned the books. At least he now knew that this place was called the "Nether City", not the Garden of Labyrinth. At least that was something.
As for the owner of this place, Angor had an idea that he was a high officer of some sort since he took care of such important files. He might even be a core manager of Nether City.
These were unimportant though. Nether City was a bunch of ruins now.
Angor closed the glass doors of the bookcase and slowly moved to the desk. He saw an opened book and a quill placed in an ink bottle when he entered the room. Seemed like someone was writing on the desk.
Angor sat on the chair and read the book.
It was a notebook. The current page was half-finished. Its owner had probably left it here for some reason.
Angor flipped to the first page to check what was written.
The first line on the front page of the book surprised Angor for good.
Singularity Dispersive Meditation.
This was a meditation book?! And the first of its kind Angor ever saw in the Nightmare Realm. This was the center of the underground maze, so could it be the special channeling method book Sunders mentioned?
Angor became excited. If so, he would begin his path of wizardry with the help of this book!
He wanted to read on. However, his teacher's words reminded him that even if he memorized the book down to every single word in the Nightmare Realm, he would forget everything upon returning to the wizarding world.
Angor calmed down, and carefully photographed every page of the book with his hologram tablet. Once this was done, he finally sat down to read it.
[1] The author mentioned the name of this place for the first time here. Maybe he thought he already did in previous chapters?


A young traveler who receives enlightenment from another civilization is on a mission to save his beloved mentor. In his journey to seek the ultimate truth, he travels extensively and along the way, he experiences some unpredictable encounters. Will he be able to save his mentor or will his path be derailed?

"My name is Shu Yidan of the Heavenly Wind Sect, hailing from the Shu Clan of River Shu. The clan was exterminated about 7 years ago, and my parents and relatives died in that tragedy. My grandfather is the only blood relative remaining….
I do have a Dao Companion, she is named Feng Shiyao. Our engagement was arranged around 5 years ago.
Marriage before you seize the throne will be inauspicious by its very nature. As for dowry… Well, my familial records state that pearls are preferable…" One by one, Shu Yidan answered all of the princess's questions.

"How tragic… Seven years ago, there town beside the River Shu was exterminated of all life, and even the River Shu was dried out in that incident. It was shockingly tragic…" Saying her condolences, Xiahou Shangyue asked the next question.

"So, how is your Dao Companion?" Her tone was carefully neutral, but Shu Yidan could still detect an undercurrent of jealousy.

"She is a good consort – quiet, obedient and faithful." That's mostly due to being ignored for half a decade… 

"She is a gifted talent in cultivation as well. Our relationship was arranged, yet it has been quite harmonious – I would be lying if I say I don't have affection for her." I am lying to your face!

"I honestly was surprised when my divinations told that my fated love was facing danger. I broke out of my seclusion yesterday and spent the entire day meddling into Feng Shiyao's business… I kind of made a ruckus with Feng Shiyao's master…" This one is mostly true, though divinations are redundant due to future knowledge…

Portraying Feng Shiyao as a girl tied to him by arranged marriage would make her more sympathetic to Xiahou Shangyue. As for himself, Shu Yidan tried to give the best impression of being an immortal cultivator who lacked common sense.

"…So, when do you plan on introducing me to her?" Saying this, Xiahou Shangyue dropped the bomb.

"Not anytime soon. What if you bully her too hard? She is a sheltered girl raised by her master… A misspoken word might lead to her Dao Heart being crippled." Shu Yidan said while shaking his head.

"…Why do you think I would bully your Dao Companion?" Xiahou Shangyue said with an expression that indicated her thoughts: You think I have the guts to bully a immortal?

"…I have heard of what goes on in harems in the Imperial Palace! Don't think that I am naïve!" Saying this, Shu Yidan began. "I once read a story about the palace… Do you want me to tell you?"

"If it is such a story… then why don't you tell it to me?" With a seductive voice, Xiahou Shangyue pressed herself upon Shu Yidan's side.

Xiahou Shangyue didn't really care about the story, for she only care about having this man beside her. He would be leaving soon. So all she wanted was to increase the limited time they had together, to create more memories with him.

She knew that her affection for him was developing too fast as they hadn't spent even a day together. Yet it seemed only normal.

If destined love took months of courting to develop, would it be worth calling 'destined'?

Meanwhile, Shu Yidan began speaking. "Okay. I'll warn you – I am not that good at narrating stories so this might sound rough…" And this isn't that good of a story, plus I don't remember much of it as well…
Keeping his thoughts private, Shu Yidan began.

+++

There were all kinds of stories Shu Yidan had read on his time on Earth. Being a avid Chinese xianxia novel fan, he once tried to read romantic novels but they seemed unappealing. One day, a certain romantic novel that began with timetravel piqued his interest…

"In the Palace of the Kingdom, the Empress faced the Emperor, but his attention was on his favored concubine…"

…

"Facing the man who had forced her into death looking unfeelingly at her and his favored concubine smirking, she decided that if there was another chance, she would repay these ingrates with fire and blood!"

…

"Unexpectedly, she found herself back in time! A week before her marriage! The Emperor was a Prince, still weak and without backing – the backing he had gained from her marriage…"

…

"She failed to break the engagement and yet, she didn't wish to marry this ingrate again. However, it was now their wedding night, and even though they were lying in the same bed, the man looked coldly at her."

"In the past life, that man didn't touch her. Looking at how things were going, it seemed that it would repeat…
Turning away, she closed her eyes… and didn't see the man's cold look transform…
In a blink, she found herself pushed down…"

…

"Looking at his young face and the way he entreated her, she decided that he deserved another chance… This man was, after all, her only love…"

…

The Prince gave the protagonist a good fucking and she suddenly decided that he was a man that could be forgiven.
All kinds of things happened after that. Concubine got a face slapping and thrown out of the harem, but after that came Concubine #2 and after that, Concubine #3… the man had like hundreds of them and all of them hated the protagonist to the bone.

Loads of horrible things happened to the protagonist…

Like her pregnant stomach getting beaten by her man after he got drunk and losing her baby…
After that, she got pregnant again, but her drink got spiked with an abortion drug and lost her baby …
Or that time she got pregnant, but she was imprisoned and lost her baby…

Speaking of the Prince, he still became the Emperor. And he remained coldly indifferent, never caring about the protagonist for more than her body…
There was her childhood friend of a General who had affection for her, but being a virtuous lady, the protagonist didn't have the guts to cheat… The childhood friend was willing to rebel against the Emperor for her yet he died a virgin, still bearing a torch for the protagonist…

The epilogue was trash as expected – she finally gave birth successfully for once. The time travel was meaningless and the future knowledge was useless…

The story was the only romance novel he read – and he hated every chapter of it.
It was a horrible novel.
The only reason he completed reading it was because he had spent too much time reading most of the chapters so he felt obligated to complete it.

Why was he telling this story to Xiahou Shangyue anyway?
It was to reinforce her perception that Shu Yidan, being a book scholar, was a little uninformed about the mortal world.
It certainly wasn't because he had time travelled and wanted to go over what not to do, no, not at all!

+++

"…And they lived happily ever after, the end." Shu Yidan licked his lips, dry from the long story. The original work was 100x the size of a paperback, and even after rushing through most of it, it still took a few hours.

Looking at his princess, Xiahou Shangyue's face seemed like she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"How did you like the story? Was it as terrible as I thought?" Shu Yidan asked her.

"Yes, it was a horrible story. The protagonist was so retarded, it was as if she wanted to die. The antagonists were even more retarded, as they couldn't even kill her. The prince was trash and I have no idea what made him appealing to the protagonist. Who the hell keeps a harem of nearly a hundred restricted to a small space and hope for them to conflict against each other?" She couldn't help but rage.

"Glad to think that we share the same opinions. By the way, if you were in that position, reincarnated with knowledge of the coming future, what would you do?" Shu Yidan casually asked.

"Meet the prince and covertly poison him before the engagement. That would solve most of the problems. After that, get closer to the childhood friend to use him to get a backing. After that, the struggle for rising atop the path of nobility begins…" Hearing the serious answer, Shu Yidan couldn't help but smile – tackling all the problems one by one was the best!

"…By the way, do you have any childhood friends like that?" Shu Yidan knew that she didn't, but asked for the effect.

"Nothing like that, unfortunately. All my childhood acquaintances are people that I would love to poison…" Hearing her answer, Shu Yidan sighed – this world had lost an infamous Black Widow, a woman of peerless poisoning skills.
What a pity – not!

"Seducing girls? System you don't need to interfere, I don't need a fucking walkthrough to chat girls up!"

"Just give me missions! Nice, detailed missions! Missions that have a clear objective to fulfil! I don't even need any rewards for completion, I just need the ability to clearly know what I need to do... to kill those bastard protagonists that I am fated to oppose!"

Auspicious Date

The Prince was twenty years of age when we were married. Therefore he looked more mature than I was, he was well-knowledge than I was and he was better at reading person than I was.

When the auspicious date to 'share room' was decided, the Prince was supposed to come to my room and the event will be heard rather than witnessed from the court ladies and eunuchs from outside.

The court lady dressed me in bedclothes and left me alone in the room after that. 

Later, Eunuch Han came and told Court Lady Kim that the Prince was feeling unwell so he will not come that night. 

Thus the Royal Astronomer had to determine another date for the event. 

The next day I lied down near the tree while reading a book I borrowed from Court Lady Song, a romantic love story. 

I wanted to learn about love and affection, then she excitedly showed me her collection of love stories. I picked the thickest one as I had so many things to learn.

I was consumed in my reading that I didn't notice the Crown Prince was lying beside me and tapped my book. 

"What are you reading?" He asked, while he read the pages I was on.

I was startled and sat bolted and threw the book behind my back.

"Your Highness," I said, flabbergasted.

"What's with the reaction? Are you reading something indecent?" He squinted his eyes suspiciously at me.

"No... I'm not," I stuttered and he grew more suspicious that he tried to take away the book. I tried to stretch my hands further but he has longer hands than mine that he reached the book easily. I struggled to get it back and this time he stood up and stretched his hand up, he was taller than me. So I jumped but I landed on a wrong foot and stumbled toward him, I tried to hold on to him but made us both fell to the ground.

I was on top of him and his face inches away from mine. I could see his shining dark brown eyes – those eyes were staring into mine. I heard heartbeats pounded, gotten faster as seconds passed. 

Maybe I was heavy that he looked uncomfortable then I realised our awkward position thus I hurriedly took my book in his hand and put it between the layers of my clothes. 

He cleared his throat and sat  against the tree. He tapped the ground beside him, gestured me to sit. 

"Did you wait for me last night?" He asked.

"Are you feeling well now?" I asked back.

"I was trying to give you time," he said.

"Huh?"

"I would rather we do that because we wanted to not because we were forced to," he said. "I prefer mutual consent after all," he added.

I didn't really understand what he meant and took mental note that I should read all Court Lady Song's collections to grasp this kind of conversation faster.

"But I couldn't give the same excuses more than three times though, so I hope we find a way opening up and accepting each other because like it or not, we can't go back," he said with a serious face.

"Therefore, I'm asking you these," he said while he looked directly into my eyes, a sign for an honest answer, "Do you regret marrying me?"

Question one, "No."

"Do you dislike me? Both as a person and as the Crown Prince."

Question two, "No."

"Will you stay with me until the end of the road?"

Question three, because I'm his wife, "Yes."

"Then that's good, anything else can come later," he smiled and patted my head softly. "I'm satisfied for now," he added.

When I came back to the residence later, I told Court Lady Song about everything then she was suddenly excited and kept asking 'Really?' and said 'So romantic' that I had to stop my story because she took her book and jotted down my story and said it was for safekeeping.

Then she said, "His Highness wanted you to open your heart and accept him."

"I had already accepted him, I'm married to him," I said.

"Accept him for he is, not because you are compelled to do so because you're husband and wife, accept him as a man and a person you would give all your affection to," she explained.

"All my affection?" I asked. She nodded.

"How do I know when the feelings come?" 

"Those feelings come naturally." She answered. 

"As of?"

She rubbed her chin and pretended like a scholar reciting a poem, "Your heart beats fast when he's around, your face feel hot when he looks at you or everything feels nice just by being with him."

I recalled moments from that evening then my face blushed unexpectedly. 

Court Lady Song hid her smile and said, "Those feelings are already here." Then she excused herself to prepare me the evening meal. 

She was a Queen and he was a King but why he's the only one got reincarnated while she became a ghost?

King: "They say you want the throne and I shall kill you for treason, do you have any reasons for me to spare you?"

Queen: "My dear, you are not only my husband but a King to this nation. I will not resent you, please do whatever you think is the best for this nation."
