For anyone asking, university arc (2) will most probably be the next update with a progress of 80/106 pages, releasing this month!

The critical thing here though, and what separates her from so many other protagonists, is that despite having this knowledge she still makes some of the same mistakes because fundamentally she's still the same person with the same flaws and personality.

It's a common fantasy to imagine "if only I could do this all over again, I'd be better this time and learn from my mistakes". But realistically even in a situation like that, it's really difficult to change our own tendencies and behavior. If you know the exact circumstances and have thought about it over and over you can probably do something different in the moment, but to make long term changes to your own life it requires a lot of reflection and self awareness that can be really difficult, especially in the moment when emotions are running high and we're more likely to slip back into our old ways of thinking.

YOU GET ITTTT

So... this is basically all sponsored content now? Someone should teach the artist to be a bit more covert about this.

It's a little unfortunate, but since we're getting all chapters for free the artist's only source of income is through sponsored chapters + income from physical release sales. Besides, she's currently working on a 106-page chapter for university arc (2), so I'd reckon a guess that from now on we'll get huge long b/w chapters for plot, and short-sometimes-sponsored colored pages in the meantime.

So much for "Chinese censorship doesn't allow sexy yuri"

Unless the author actually lives in Taiwan or something.

It's censored on Weibo. I'm blindly guessing the crabless version was posted briefly somewhere for grabbing or PMed to the interested parties.

both! the minimally censored versions with the nips black box'd was briefly posted on weibo for the rest while the fully nude ones were PMed to us

Those blushes were so heartfelt.
Also a wild and hot rival (or at least, troublemaker) appeared!
Thanks for the chapter!

President Tao? She's Ningwei's girlfriend and Youyan's boss. She appears in chapter 2.

right on!

the opening lines sound like they were aiming for dickens.

That's what I thought too! The juxtaposition stood out a lot

I'd honestly say Manhua : actors, murderers.

The number of really weird Chinese comics about Yuri killers is staggering.

Just off the top of my head:
Savior
Kill Me Now
Killing Mr. Park
Let's Kill My Husband
Killing You

If you add in webnovels, it skyrockets way beyond that list too.

Uh what? All of those series are Korean.

That's what I was thinking too.

As far as I can tell the raws haven't updated since April which is a huge bummer cause this was a huge chapter.

A new chapter with a whopping 86 black/white pages just dropped yesterday, sooo ;)

On another subject, that Yu Bai is a real piece of work. His wife just died, he has just buried her, and he's already seducing other women and stealing kisses from them!? Screw mourning, I see...

It's revealed in the next chapter but he kisses her only because he realises that celestial lu yao is his newly reincarnated wife

Is it just me, or Chinese artists are producing new yuri series every other week? That, or they are being picked up for translation than before.

I'd say both, but that's only because there was a huge surge (10+ iirc) of new and upcoming GLs that were announced/released during August.

So the protagonist, while half blind, did not recognise the emperor and just thought it was a random woman as she called her Jeijei, which i google tells me is a term for an older female friend basically calling them big sister.
Is that right?

Yep, generally speaking. We put a TL note in ch1 about this already, but in some cases jiejie is used to flirt, just like used the same way as unnie and onee-chan. It's especially popular in Chinese wlw circles.

The art is gorgeous, but I must admit I'm having a bit of trouble telling the characters apart at times. Just to make sure, the woman(?) in the first two pages of Ch. 2 is the "emperor" and the one that gives our sickly protagonist the fluffy scarf is the wife who defended her in Ch. 1?

The woman in the first two pages of ch2 is indeed the emperor, and also the same person who gave MC the fluffy cloak! The lady who defended MC in ch1 is Xiao Qianxue (the original FL of the novel MC transmigrated into), who doesn't appear in this chapter.

Don't tell me the corpse she transmigrated into, is the body of the lady the Emperor loved before?

That would cause some... drama, to say the least.

The corpse is just a corpse (lol), no relation to the overarching plot whatsoever! But there /is/ a subplot about the Emperor's dead love relating to MC

whoever jeijei is I’m rooting for her, that was fricking cute

We'll know in chapter 3!

I’m wondering if she was faking it or if the “debuff” from her soul and body not being integrated fully just has a bad effect on her eyesight

It's the latter! That's why she keeps coughing and can't see at night lol

On another note, MC was transmigrated into this mission world through the body of a suitable corpse, so the higher her fusion levels, the more she'll grow to look like her original body

And like you've described in your comment, this chapter 1 in particular didn't even really explain anything that would give us a hint of what the real story is about so I kinda fail to see the reasoning for it here.

I feel the pacing will prob be better once it gets to what the author actually wants to write about, but yeah these sudden starts are always just so jarring for me

3 chapters were released at once in the raws, so there were enough to explain the general plot and such. It's just that the translations came out 1 by 1 so it feels a little "...that's it?"

I'm guessing this was to prevent the first chapter from being excessively long so readers don't complain about the normal chapters being short.

I bet you a donut that the girl at the balcony in the final panel is a werewolf demon.

More like a succubus with an alternate form, which is a dog with horns.

Anilist only had 12 chapters listed soooo yeah ;-;

That's referring to the CURRENT raws, and there's only 11 up till now. Ch12 is predicted to release in a couple of days so don't worry, this will still go on.

“China” is a black-list word to me—mangas published there are not worth the time to read.

Ngl you're just punishing the artists for things that are out of their control. Everyone wants the freedom to create, and when that freedom is compromised, they have to make (minor) sacrifices, and it's our job as readers to keep supporting them despite that if you ever want more GLs to read in the world.

Because fyi, GL is not a money making machine in China as compared to BL, so creators are literally making themselves poorer to tell stories that they want instead of doing whatever puts food on the table (which I wouldn't blame them for).

Aaaaand due to censorship in China, this story won’t go anywhere.

Is this all online? Posted In which country?

Tell me you know nothing about chinese censorship without telling me you know nothing about chinese censorship.

Besides, I'm like 99% sure that this comic is not from mainland china because its 1. Not long strip, and 2. Has literal uncensored tits and sex scenes throughout the story. If I had to guess I'd bet this was taiwanese.

God, I'm so sick of comments like the op showing up in every single GL manhua on here lmao. But whatever, I'll answer those questions.

This is a personal project, the only thing that's getting censored is the occasional nudity and homo kiss scenes. Yes, this is all online. Yes, this is also posted from mainland China, just not in the usual format you'd find it in.

The artist used to post this on pixiv (one of the many workarounds to censorship), so that's why the scan group was able to rip it without needing to decensor anything. However since subsequent chapters are not (due to reasons not related to censorship), they'll be posted on weibo instead and will require decensoring.

I wouldn't put Chen and Ren at the same level here. Ren is just a friend that Youzi ships with her mom but Chen actually seems really close with the mom.

Oh boy do I have news for you in the next chapter ;)

What? What??? Don't tell me Mom x Ren turns out to be a thing!?

well, you could look at the last line of text in chapter 3, bottom right :)

One last thing: if youve ever read about bl authors being allegedly jailed for simply writing bl, it's not true. Those are either 1) slander from antis of said author 2) fearmongering "china is terrible!" tactic targeted towards western ppl like you
