Novels you'd like to see translated

Greetings, my fellow lily lovers! For context, I just started university this year. Usually, I'd have to go five years (1 preparation year + 4 years), but I passed the exam for the first year and skipped it!

My major is Chinese translation, and one of the reasons I chose it is because I want to read my favorite Chinese novels. I might get a second degree in the future, but that's currently not important.

I have always liked to read danmei, and then went on to read baihe. However, I noticed that the translated baihe novels were way less than danmei, and therefore I couldn't read too much of them, as I always prefer human translation.

I'm hoping that by the end of this first year, with the university teachings + my own independent studying, I can somehow translate a baihe for my own! I hope to be a loyal servant to the lily agenda!

I wanted to post this when I felt that I'm ready to translate immediately, but I just couldn't wait! So I'll ask now, and do later.

Please tell me any baihe that you liked or know about and would like to see translated into English, 100% by a human, no MTL whatsoever!

Any genre is okay, but I'd prefer not much historical for now, as it might be hard to translate. But still, even if it's historical, if it's interesting enough, I might give it a try! So write whatever you want from me!

I will choose whatever I find interesting, then choose maximum 6 baihe that I might want to translate. And when I'm ready, I will do a poll to ask what everyone here to choose from one of them!

Please go ahead, don't be shy! I'll look at everything you write, pinky promise! ^-^

tl;dr: Write a baihe novel that you want translated, and I will choose out of one of them to translate sometime in the future.

Monthly Recommendation Requests Megathread - October 2026

To streamline posts on this subreddit, please use this monthly megathread to request for recommendations. Please try to be as specific with your requests as possible (it is much more likely that you will receive a recommendation that you enjoy if you gave examples on the kinds of works you've loved as compared to simply stating a genre) and please keep your recommendations relevant to the request!

If you are new to baihe, this is a good introductory post to the genre, and you can find recommended works by genre here and here. There is also a "if you liked this danmei, you might like that baihe" post here for those taking a peek from the danmei fandom. And if you would like to support passionate fans who translate without the use of MTL as we see more and more "translators" who simply upload their LLM output just to lock them behind a paywall, check out this list of human translated works here.

Use spoiler tags generously, especially if you plan to discuss any story details. Please also ensure that it's clear what you are tagging and that they are correctly formatted as in the example below:

New Reader

Hi.
This is a person who is wanting to get into Baihe. I've read chinese novels before, action driven, hetero romance, even danmei. So I believe I'm familiar with the culture and all a bit (won't call myself a pro or anything but I am acquainted). I got a copy of 'Female General and Eldest Princess' as well as 'The Beauty's Blade' without thinking. I admit I've read like 20% or so of each book but I've not been able to move forward. here is why:
FGAEP- my copy doesn't have any a map or anything (i don't know whether it is supposed to) and I find it hard to follow with the world building. if someone could explain, tha would be wonderful.
Beauty's Blade- Too many names and plot is confusing. do the leads know each other from before? is it their first time meeting? why are they acting familiar and then saying 'this was their first meeting'. and then the names are spinning around.
Please either explain this
thanks
Edited to remove the part asking for recs

Is there an ebook version of at the world’s mercy?

What the question says. Is there a digital version of At the World’s Mercy by Ning Yuan? The physical copy is a little hard to get a hold of. Some websites say there’s a digital version but I can’t find a way to access it for purchase. Please help me out a bit.
