“Hello, have you ever been in a relationship?”“Of course not.” Tenkuji Yuu shook his head, “I genuinely have never had a girlfriend. If you don’t believe me, ask my system. If anyone has memories of being my girlfriend, I’ll admit defeat, okay?”“Then who are they...?”Yuu turned and saw Yukinoshita Haruno, Yuuki Asuna, Natsukawa Masuzu, Yukinoshita Yukino, and Kasumigaoka Utaha walking towards him, with expressions as if they were ready to confront him.“Yuu-chan, I’ve remembered you just abandoning me at the hotel.”“Yuu-kun, I told you, I won’t forget, I will definitely remember you, and I definitely won’t forgive you!”“Yuu, boyfriends can be ‘Ora Ora’-ed for three pages... are you ready?”“Tenkuji-kun, as long as we haven’t broken up, you and I are still a couple.”“Heroine with amnesia, hero leaves... I don’t like these old-fashioned, stomach-churning plots, Yuu-kun.”“...You guys are weird.”Yuu maintained a calm expression, but inwardly he was panicking and getting ready to run.“System, get out here and explain this to me!”System: [Meow]Author: A Passing Chūnibyō Youth

Ananya never expected death to bring her into another life.One moment, she was running her parents’ restaurant in the modern world.The next, she opened her eyes in silk robes, surrounded by hostile stares — the Queen Consort of the empire.But this body was cursed in everyone’s eyes.The Emperor loathed her.The mistress laughed at her.And the court whispered behind her back.Only she wasn’t truly alone.> “Finally, someone can see us!”“What kind of Queen Consort are you, so calm even with ghosts in your chamber?”“Shut up, Wei Rong, let her breathe. She looks like she’s about to faint.”Three ghosts — a stoic scholar, a brash general, and a mischievous noble girl — lingered at her side. They were invisible to all but her. And with them, she learned to survive the poisonous palace.When rumors spread that she was cursed, Ananya stood before the empire’s court.Instead of tears, she offered proof. Instead of fear, she offered dignity.> “If Heaven believes I am cursed, let the fire and smoke betray me. I will not hide.”And Heaven sided with her.Outside the palace, crises struck — starving soldiers, missing supplies, merchants growing fat from stolen grain. Inside, Lady Zhen, the Emperor’s favored mistress, grew bolder by the day, flaunting her beauty and mocking Ananya’s quiet grace.> “Sister, do you still dream of winning His Majesty’s heart? Look at you — plain, dull, unworthy.”“If simplicity is a crime, then let it be mine,” Ananya answered, unshaken.The Emperor indulged Lady Zhen openly… but in the silence of night, he tasted Ananya’s food, lingered at her table, and found himself unsettled by her calm.> “This is not palace fare,” he muttered.“It is lighter,” Ananya replied softly. “Easier to sleep after.”Step by step, conspiracy thickened. At a grand banquet, a poisoned cup was placed in Ananya’s hand. But a ghost’s laugh echoed in her ear — and the cup was swapped. A dancer collapsed instead.From that night on, the Emperor’s gaze changed. He began to notice the woman who never begged for favor, never fought for attention, yet always endured.Still, war brewed at the borders. Betrayals reached even the throne. Assassins crept through the palace halls. And the one person who seemed weakest became the calm at the center of the storm.Through whispered secrets, mischievous hauntings, and quiet resilience, Ananya carved her place in the empire.She would not simply survive.She would rise.And the Emperor who once despised her would one day whisper only her name.

That lonesome night as he lays dying in the hospital, fearing of death and desiring the taste of life, his mind became unprecedentedly complex with mixed emotions.

Gu Xingshen! Your sister grabbed my man, you helped your sister grab my man! Your family is not anything good!
