After some mediation by Shen's Mother, a potential crisis for you was quietly resolved.
Although the three women were now back on equal footing, Liu Huijuan couldn't help but feel more favorably inclined toward Fu Nanzhi and Shu Yunyi, whom she had met first.
Compared to their ease and familiarity in the Shen household, Cheng Jun was noticeably less at home, her mannerisms still carrying traces of formality.
Cheng Jun was well aware that her late arrival put her at a disadvantage, but she was clever and charming, finding another way to win affection by bonding with Grandmother. Through this approach, she gradually earned the family’s fondness and approval.
After spending time together, Shen's Mother, who had initially harbored reservations, found herself increasingly impressed by the personalities and attitudes of the three women.
She took you aside for a private conversation, sharing her observations about their differences and her feelings about their interactions. With a meaningful pat on your shoulder, she left the final decision to you.
No matter what, everything ultimately depended on your choice...
In the days that followed, you continued your laid-back approach.
Thanks to Shen's Mother’s coordination, you were no longer as passive. Though the three women still disliked each other, they gradually accepted one another’s presence.
Each had her own expectations, but there was only one of you. The idea of any one of them monopolizing you was impossible—the other two would never allow it.
As tensions grew, they privately agreed to a three-way rotation: each would have you for a day, taking turns without interference, ensuring fair competition.
The proposal might have seemed absurd, but it was a practical solution. Constant bickering was making daily life unbearable.
Shu Yunyi was the first to agree—this way, she would take the first slot.
Fu Nanzhi soon followed, confident that with one-on-one time, she could win you over.
Seeing the other two had already settled it, Cheng Jun had little room to object and reluctantly accepted the last position.
Suddenly, the world became peaceful again.
The rotation system worked smoothly for nearly half a year. The three women rarely crossed paths, balancing work and personal lives without conflict.
Even during the New Year holidays, the rotation continued, effortlessly solving the headache of holiday visits.
You lived with each of them in turn—dining together, shopping, commuting to and from work.
The relentless cycle left even your robust physique exhausted, yet life felt fulfilling.
Days passed in a blur, everything seemingly smooth...
But no matter how passively you handled things, one critical question eventually surfaced:
Who would you marry?
Beyond parental and societal pressure, was this really how you wanted to spend the rest of your life?
In a blink, Shen Yi was pulled back into the scene by the text.
He awoke as if from a deep sleep.
The exhaustion of recent days had thrown off his biological clock, making him oversleep.
It wasn’t entirely his fault—Fu Nanzhi and Shu Yunyi had been competing fiercely.
Though they rarely saw each other, they had instinctively found a way to one-up each other:
Every time their turn came, they would go all out to drain him completely.
Shu Yunyi was in her prime, and Fu Nanzhi was even more relentless. Their alternating efforts left Shen Yi thoroughly worn out.
Their logic was simple—leave nothing for the other. The relentless pace took its toll, even on his stamina.
Rubbing his eyes, Shen Yi reached for the person beside him, only to find empty space.
The sheets still held residual warmth. His drowsiness faded as he opened his eyes to see a slender figure sitting at the edge of the bed, her back to him.
Her fair skin and delicate waist accentuated the prominent butterfly bones on her back.
She was fastening her bra, arms bent gracefully as she clasped it behind her.
Reassured, Shen Yi turned and wrapped an arm around her waist from behind, pulling her close.
Startled, she swatted at his mischievous hand.
"Let go!"
Turning, she revealed a delicate face, cheeks faintly flushed—Cheng Jun, caught between irritation and amusement.
"I'm getting dressed. Stop fooling around."
Shen Yi chuckled and withdrew, admiring her smooth, satin-like skin.
Half a year together had led to intimacy—Cheng Jun had given herself to him just before the New Year.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be this exhausted. On the surface, it seemed like two women, but in reality, it was three.
She had done so willingly, and it had felt like the natural next step.
During New Year’s dinner, Cheng Jun had mentioned Shen Yi again.
Though Cheng Tianwei remained skeptical, he held back his disapproval for the holiday’s sake, even inviting Shen Yi over for a meal.
He respected his daughter’s choice and didn’t want to interfere too much.
With this acknowledgment, Cheng Tianwei began paying closer attention, frequently asking about their relationship.
The answer was always the same: "Everything’s fine."
A businessman at heart, Cheng Tianwei believed nothing was certain until formalized. With Cheng Jun nearing thirty, marriage became a pressing topic.
Now dressed, Cheng Jun sat at the vanity, brushing her long hair.
As she combed through the silken strands, her thoughts wandered.
She glanced at Shen Yi’s reflection in the mirror, hesitating before speaking.
"Shen Yi, do you love me?"
He looked up from his phone.
"Of course I love you. Why do you ask?"
Cheng Jun set the comb down, murmuring,
"Nothing..."
Then, picking up a pair of earrings, she added softly,
"My dad asked about us again yesterday..."
"I told him everything was fine."
A pause.
"I’m twenty-seven now. Not young anymore. Thirty isn’t far off."
"Family pressure aside, I just want to know what you think."
Shen Yi slowly sat up, puzzled by her sudden seriousness. He had managed to keep the fragile balance between the three women—upsetting it now would be disastrous.
Marriage wasn’t an option. He could only stall.
"You know the situation... Nanzhi and Yunyi... they..."
"Just wait a little longer. I’ll give you an answer."
Cheng Jun stiffened, her back still turned.
Every moment she felt brushed off, she couldn't help but retreat further.
Taking another deep breath, Cheng Jun faced the mirror, attempting to put on her earrings—but today, they seemed determined to defy her. No matter how many times she tried, they just wouldn’t stay in place.
Frustrated, she flung them aside with a sigh, giving up entirely.
For the first time, she steeled herself and turned around, her eyes locking onto Shen Yi’s as she asked, clinging to a fragile hope:
"Are you actually willing to marry me or not?"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
