Spyglass Rooftop

Sharing a Pavilion With You

Meili is a once-in-a-generation beauty raised in secrecy in the inner courtyards. To keep her safe from the palace concubine selections, her family conspires to make everyone, including her, believe that she's ugly. The secret's revealed when 3 peeping Tom’s get more than they bargained for spying on the 'ugly sister' bathing. The perverts are best friends, a young commander, the second prince, and an admired poet, and the 3 young men compete fiercely for her affections. As Meili emerges from 16 years in seclusion, her deeply rooted body dysmorphia has hilarious consequences as she misreads her interactions with men and proves to be a far more complex puzzle to woo than any of them are equipped for. A cdrama romcom where a young girl is a glittering prize trying her hardest not to be won. [#teen #lovequadrangle #historicalromance #romcom #cdrama #sweetromance] EXTRACT: Meili slipped out of her robe and sat on a ledge in the warm pool. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, tiny silver bells tinkled as she moved. It felt wonderful to be free of her chest binding. It was starting to get quite painful. She didn't dare stop wearing it in case it encouraged her already disconcertingly large breasts to keep expanding. It was onto this scene that the Commander, the Prince and the poet happened, as they soundlessly raised their heads above the peaked roofline. For a full minute not one of them moved or breathed. Her long hair covered her generous curves, allowing tantalising glimpses. She reached behind her neck to push back her hair. Commander Bai, realising what was about to happen, clamped each of his hands firmly over the eyes of the Prince and Tan Bowen. A fight broke out on the ridge-line as the men clawed and scratched in a panicked attempt to see what came next. Meili looked up in fright, just as the commander forcefully pushed his two friends, sliding them down the steep rooftop. For just a split second, the eyes of Commander Bai and Meili met.

How To Turn Down The Vampire Ex-Best Friend

Good looks. Successful career. Stable finances. And a ten-story apartment building in the heart of Seoul. Cedric Lim, an earnest and clean-cut 29-year-old novelist, has everything he needs to finally focus on writing his own love story. However, he cannot find the connection he wants with just anyone for some reason. His conquests during the recent years often take on a cheating plot, fubu-zoned plot, and I-like-you-but-I’m-not-into-monogamy plot. With successive failures in dating, Cedric finally decided to stop! He’s never the type to cry over failed relationships and never the kind who chases after someone who didn’t like him, so what’s the harm if he stopped going out, right? Time ruthlessly passed, and he didn’t notice that he’d been single and barren for five years! Now, Cedric Lim often fantasizes about himself miserably leaning against the wall, slowly falling down as he questions himself where he went wrong. “I'm the perfect combination of cute and handsome! I worked really hard to get these four-pack abs, and I am a freaking landlord in Seoul! Why isn’t there anyone who wants to date me!” Cedric roared on his rooftop during one of his rare drunken fits. “Then date me!” One handsome man with chillingly pale skin appeared seemingly out of thin air. He’s not just any hot stranger who happened to be hanging around the rooftop. He’s Dylan Kim, Cedric Lim’s new tenant and ex-best friend-slash-first crush from high school. The brute dropped him like a hot potato and disappeared after discovering he was into men. Dylan severely wounded Cedric’s trust, so now, even though he’s back in his life as a renewed man, Cedric swears he will never ever let himself be involved with his almost-first love. But what if there’s something more in Dylan’s disappearance? He’s not only back as a renewed man. He’s also back as a full-fledged vampire, and he’s not only here to suck Cedric’s blood. He’s also here to set things straight and resume the romance that is abruptly cut due to an accident his— untimely turning into a vampire. However, with Cedric being jaded with love and misunderstandings, can Dylan win Cedric’s trust? Will the unresolved misunderstanding for more than 13 years finally be corrected?

Urban Roots: The Farming System

You know how some people get super excited about their job interviews? Yeah, I wasn’t one of those people. Meet me—Kieran Vale, a broke college grad with a degree I’m still paying for (thanks, student loans). One day, I find myself in the middle of a totally normal scenario: unlocking a mysterious "system" that rewards me for growing organic produce in the city. I mean, who wouldn’t want a farming side hustle on top of their 500 tabs of nonsense? So now, instead of desperately sending out résumés (and failing), I’m out here unlocking farming tools, skill trees, and weather predictions like it’s a game. And guess what? Every time I grow a plant, I get some new gadget. It’s like if Minecraft and real life had a baby, and that baby was... well, me. The system’s even got automated irrigation and AI drones. I don’t know how to feel about that. Am I a farmer or just a tech geek with a green thumb? But wait—there’s more! Just when I think I’ve got it all figured out, city developers show up wanting to bulldoze everything I’m trying to build. Oh, and did I mention the rival farmers who are way too competitive about their rooftop kale? Yeah, there's that too. Apparently, being an urban farmer means playing a weird game of "who can grow the weirdest vegetables while avoiding getting arrested by city officials." Anyway, I’ve got a decision to make: build a farming empire out of thin air, or let the system’s rewards turn me into some kind of weird urban farming legend. But seriously, author, can we have a moment of honesty? Does anyone actually want to farm this much? Because I’m starting to think the system is less "helpful" and more "let’s see how much Kieran can handle before he breaks." So, yeah, this is my chaotic journey of turning dirt into something worth a whole lot more. Let's see where this farming adventure takes me.
