[The full text is free and has ended! ! The male protagonist is paranoid and pets his wife VS the female protagonist is super short, and the two strong have vests]

“You dare to divorce, unless I die!” Fu Tingyao was cold and cruel, but he loved her to the point of madness, and he would turn black as soon as he left.

Before his rebirth, Mu Xingwan mistakenly regarded his benefactor as an enemy, and only when he died did he realize that he loved him to the bone.

Returning from the rebirth, Mu Xing started a counterattack late, hugged the man’s thigh tightly, slapped the face and abused the scum all the way! It is rumored on the Internet that Mu Xingwan’s heart is higher than the sky, and she stalked the popular actor Shen Yu, and recruited fans to scold “The toad wants to eat swan meat!” As a result, after the photos of Mu Xingwan’s makeup without makeup were exposed, she “slapped” her face! It was rumored on the Internet that the popular actor Shen Yu fell in love with the little fairy at first sight, but found that the little fairy was Mu Xingwan after she had no makeup… The whole network was shocked. Fu Erye, the dream lover of thousands of girls, immediately posted a group photo, and wrote @shen yu: my wife, understand?

It is also said that Mu Xingwan was timid and stupid, and all the ladies and ladies were looking forward to their divorce: the vase was not worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with the second master.

Then, the news headlines revealed that the top student in the college entrance examination, an expert in appraising treasures… When it was all hers, it blinded everyone’s eyes.

Fu Tingyao: “Who dares to covet my woman?”

In a world where power is dictated by gangs, cities, and families ranked from Tier 1 to Tier 6, only the strongest survive. In the Tier 4 city of Blackridge, fifteen-year-old Elijah struggles to find his place.

But strength in this world isn’t given—it’s taken. The gangs that rule Blackridge won’t tolerate competition, and even the weakest gang has more resources, manpower, and experience than they do. With no money, no reputation, and no clear allies, they must navigate a brutal world of betrayals, violence, and ambition, where every decision could mean life or death.But Elijah is different.

He plans to reign at the very top

“The masterminds are cooler than heroes,” I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game.Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit.Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not?***[Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.]What?[Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.]Wait, what?![Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.]And, why would I do that?![Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.]Why would I save him?![The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?]Ah! I give up...It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things.In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker.I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need?Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though.I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse!Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is...[Failure: Destruction of the World.]It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped.If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing.[Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.]“If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne.”And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.
