Lancer Servants

An Imperial Concubine’s Fight for Survival in the Modern Age

Hua Yanrou is no ordinary woman. A trained assassin since birth, her mission alongside her partner, Jia Xin, was clear: infiltrate the royal palace, eliminate the emperor, and steal a priceless gemstone. Posing as servants in noble households, they worked their way into the lives of two powerful princes—Lei Chen, the Second Prince, and Lei Feng, the Sixth Prince—all while keeping their deadly secrets. But after carrying out their mission and striking the emperor down, things don't go as planned. Captured and on the brink of death, Hua Yanrou and Jia Xin activate a poison to protect their identities… only to wake up in the future. Now, Hua Yanrou finds herself in the body of a fragile 16-year-old servant girl, her assassin's instincts clashing with the unfamiliarity of the modern age. Alone, disoriented, and desperate to find Jia Xin, she takes on a new role: the bodyguard of a mysterious Young Master. But the longer she stays, the harder it becomes to leave. The deeper she becomes entangled in her new life, the more she realizes something unsettling about the young master: he is reincarnation of the Sixth Prince, Lei Chen.  Why were they sent to this strange new world? What power lies hidden in the gemstone they risked everything for? And when past and present collide, will Hua Yanrou's deadly skills be enough to protect her secrets—or her heart? One thing is certain: in this new world, survival demands more than just cleverness. It requires the courage to face truths buried in time.

Standing in the Aristocratic Circle New to the Aristocratic Circle and Subjected to Bullying After crossing over, Dai Shi Ya found herself in a hostile aristocratic family. The housekeeper, Liu, treated her poorly, arranging for her to stay in the servants' quarters and providing her with servant uniforms as "daily clothes." The other servants also held prejudices against her due to her status, making life difficult for her at every turn. Faced with these difficulties, Dai Shi Ya did not choose to confront immediately but decided to take the initiative to try to integrate into the family. She began to help in the kitchen, learning various domestic skills. Although her efforts did not immediately win the recognition of everyone, she gradually won the respect of some of the servants. Shining at the Family Dinner In order to establish herself in the family, Dai Shi Ya decided to take advantage of the family dinner. She meticulously prepared for various aspects of the dinner, including venue layout and menu design. At the dinner, she encountered multiple difficulties from her cousin Dai Yue.

Between Wings

“In a house divided by status, secrets, and the whisper of wings, freedom feels as distant as the stars.” When Laura Charles takes a position at the prestigious Wyndham Estate, she plans to keep her head down, her past hidden, and her heart untangled. Among the polished silver and immaculate halls, she’s determined to play her part as the perfect lady's maid: quiet, diligent, and invisible. But nothing at Wyndham is as simple as it seems. From Amber, the exuberant housemaid, to Mrs. Hobbs, the sharp and rigid housekeeper, the servants' hall brims with personalities as complex as the estate itself. Among them is Aleksi, a towering, sharp-tongued footman whose presence stirs something Laura can't quite define. As their paths cross in unexpected ways, sparks fly—not of romance but of class tension and sharp disdain. Yet beneath the barbs and silences lies an unsettling intensity that neither can fully ignore. Meanwhile, the estate hides more than just its opulent splendor. Foreign servants whisper in a language Laura doesn’t understand, and the weight of expectations crushes everyone under the roof, noble or not. In a world where every glance and gesture is a battle for survival, trust becomes a dangerous luxury, and the line between ally and enemy blurs. As the seasons shift and the stakes rise, Laura finds herself trapped between two wings: the strict confines of duty and the yearning for something more—freedom, perhaps, or even love. But how far will she go to protect herself when her heart and her carefully constructed walls are both at risk of crumbling? Between Wings is a tale of class, romance, and survival, where every choice is fraught with danger and even the smallest kindness can have far-reaching consequences. For fans of slow-burn romance, rich historical drama, and characters navigating a world determined to define them, this is a story of transformation and defiance against all odds.
