Chapter 1059: Iceberg Doctor 8

Seeing the slight reluctance on Sun Zi’ang’s face, Tang Wan immediately stepped forward and hooked her arm through his, speaking in a relieved tone. “It’s fine as long as you’re not angry with me! But honestly, after saying it out loud, I feel much better. Actually, I never really liked sweets. I only kept coming here to get closer to you. Of course, I’m not saying your desserts aren’t good—you’re really talented—but I personally don’t have much interest in them.” After that, she shrugged lightly, as if finally letting go of a burden.

Sun Zi’ang felt the contrast hit him hard. Where was the soft, sweet girl he used to know? Still, not wanting her to think he disliked her now, he nodded. “It’s okay. Some people just don’t like sweets… and I’m glad you were honest with me.” Hearing this, Tang Wan immediately brightened. “I knew Zi’ang was the best! Let’s go to a bar today, okay? I know one where the bartender makes amazing drinks!”

Sun Zi’ang froze for a moment. She… went to bars? “Wan Wan, girls shouldn’t go to places like that,” he said, unable to stop himself. Tang Wan immediately widened her eyes. “Why not? I used to go every week!” That answer caught him completely off guard, and his impression of her dropped another notch. He forced himself to stay patient. “I’m not saying you can’t go. I just think those places aren’t very safe.”

“It’s safe! You’ll know if you come with me once,” Tang Wan insisted. Then she began describing the atmosphere of the bar in vivid detail, even mentioning dancing closely with others. As she spoke, Sun Zi’ang’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Of course, Tang Wan had no intention of actually going to a bar. Noticing his clear disapproval, she quickly waved it off. “Forget it, if you don’t like it, then never mind!” Then, as if suddenly inspired, she added, “Then let’s go to an internet café and play games? Do you play League of Legends? I’m super good—I can carry you!”

Sun Zi’ang rarely went online, let alone played games. Hearing this, he only felt that the gap between them was growing wider and wider. Taking a breath, he said, “Isn’t there a computer at home? Why go to an internet café?” “The atmosphere is different!” Tang Wan replied immediately, then added casually, “If you don’t like it, then forget it.”

Sun Zi’ang felt a quiet sense of relief. He handed her a small cake. “This is for you. A new dessert I developed.” “Oh,” Tang Wan replied flatly. She still took it, but her lack of enthusiasm was obvious. Only then did Sun Zi’ang realize that she truly didn’t like desserts, and he felt a bit awkward.

At that moment, a black car stopped in front of the shop. The next second, a long leg stepped out—and Tang Wan saw a familiar figure.

Li Sitong.

Cold. Abstinent. Unapproachable.

Tang Wan’s heart skipped a beat.

What is he doing here this early in the morning?!

This is bad—what if he sees me with Sun Zi’ang?

Almost instantly, she turned away in a panic. But just as quickly, she forced herself to stay calm and turned back to Sun Zi’ang.

“Then let’s go watch a movie!”

No matter what—

She absolutely could not let Li Sitong see them together.

Chapter 1: Got Dumped on the Day of the Wedding

 Translator's Note Before we begin—I'll just take a moment of your time! 🌸 I know this is a bit of a wall of text to encounter before the actual novel, so I'll keep it simple: please take a moment to read this first so you know what to expect from this translation. After this chapter, you can happily skip these notes unless there's something new I need to mention. I promise I won't make you read this before every chapter. 😂 I'm sharing this translation simply because I translated this novel for myself, enjoyed it, and thought that perhaps other readers with similar tastes might enjoy it too. I'm a huge fan of quick-transmigration (快穿) novels, especially the kind where the protagonist is already extremely capable—or becomes overpowered very quickly—and gets to go through different worlds, counterattack, face-slap, and generally make life difficult for people who deserve it. I usually don't gravitate toward QT novels that focus heavily on favorabi...

Chapter 2: Does It Matter If I Am Gay?

When the male makeup artist heard Tang Wan’s words, he was immediately stunned. The others around him looked at him with envy, wishing Tang Wan would casually point at them instead. That was five billion! After a while, the male makeup artist finally reacted. His face flushed red as he asked, “Is it okay if I’m gay?” “It doesn’t matter if you’re gay or anything else. As long as you hold a wedding with me, the five billion will be yours!” Tang Wan said. “I agree!” he replied excitedly, nodding desperately. Tang Wan snapped her fingers when she heard this. “Okay! You guys, hurry up and change his clothes and fix his styling!” Hah! Did they really think she absolutely had to marry Sun Wu? Three-legged toads were hard to find, but there were plenty of two-legged men in the world! ... Hearing Tang Wan’s words, the others immediately got busy, pressing the temporary groom into a chair while applying makeup and changing him into a suit. Half an hour later, Tang Wan wor...

Chapter 4: Diablo 1

Hearing this, Tang Wan immediately understood that this was a name given by the host, and the system had to accept it! Seeing this, she couldn’t help looking at Little Cutie dangerously. “Little Cutie, did you do that on purpose just now?” If she had agreed to call it the Daddy System, wouldn’t she have to call a little kid “Dad” forever? Hearing Tang Wan’s words, Little Cutie felt guilty for a second, but still said confidently: “I was originally called the Daddy System! I didn’t lie to you!” “I think it’s actually called the 88 System, right?” Tang Wan exposed him with a single glance. Upon hearing this, Little Cutie immediately stiffened his neck and said: “Yes! Doesn’t 88 sound like ‘Dad’?” Tang Wan was speechless. Did systems also play word games now? At that moment, Little Cutie was afraid Tang Wan would continue dwelling on the name issue, so he immediately urged: “Since the binding is complete, let’s head to the mission world now!” “Now entering the no...
