The shoot this time took them to U City, a small city in the south. It was the height of summer, hot and humid; Qin Ting had never been anywhere this damp. She felt as if every pore on her body was sw...

“You thought you could scheme against me?” The voice above him was vicious. Yan Yu hit the floor. His forehead struck something hard, and warm blood began to trickle down his face. It didn't hurt. [Sy...

Chapter 4: The House Behind the House Valdieri House — 1:17 a.m. At 1:17 in the morning, lights were still burning in the Valdieri family's true Manhattan residence. It was not, of course, the detache...

Welcome to BR Corporation, the largest multinational financial group in the world. Black slogans. A black logo. And Su Mosheng, dressed in an equally deep-black suit. Only the chairwoman, Su Yue, wore...

Chapter 5: Hypnosis and Poison Mist Being the sect leader's disciple brought endless glory. Gifts poured toward Shang Zhu from every direction. Befriending him might win recognition from a Mahayana-st...

“A bargain?” Xue Miao leaned against his wheelchair beneath the moon, narrow eyes studying an unexpectedly interesting intruder. “What do you possess that could serve as a bargaining chip?” Cen Sheng ...

The hall went silent. Wang Guizhi steadied herself against the table, all color gone. Jing Shishi hid behind Xue Wenyan. Xue Wenyan snatched Xue Miao’s letter. “Mother, the censor is investigating the...

Cold sweat slid down Zong Wen's cheek. His fingers clamped onto the sofa's armrest as he gave a very low, muffled groan. “Mr. Zong!” Assistant Zhou was scared out of his wits. His briefcase crashed to...

Pain flooded every bone in Cen Sheng’s body. She tried to scream, but a rag stuffed her mouth. Gongs and drums thundered outside. A suona wailed through the winter night. “Seal the coffin!” The last t...

Ling Wu glared at his retreating back and let fly: "Who are you cursing, huh?! What do you mean, no next life for me! When I ascend, I'll make you regret it! Just you wait!" Cruel words wound the hear...

Two weeks later, Qin Ting received the film's script. “Doesn't everyone say his films always put the male lead together with the second female lead? I read the whole thing. Why doesn't anyone fall in ...

Chapter 3: Until One of Us Dies In this life, Lin Zijing would fight Mo Ruxuan until one of them died. Perhaps fate had favored him with a chance to begin again. He did not yet know whether this was d...

After fooling around on the forum, Shi Wei simply forgot about the student handbook. Shen Li only had a year left until graduation anyway. What trouble could a sensible, obedient model student like hi...

Lady Li’s every word carried the same regret: if she had spoken sooner, perhaps none of this would have happened. Murong Qing did not know how to comfort her. Everyone interpreted guilt differently. W...

“Minister Shangguan…you know the stories about the plum blossom, don’t you?” Murong Qing asked when she saw recognition in his face. Of course he did. The Plum Blossom Thief had committed another crim...

Night fell over Chang’an, and the Jinwu Guard began its usual patrol. The patrol officer led from the front. As he scanned the street, a cat cried somewhere nearby. Perhaps someone had startled it, or...

For the next several days, Shang Zhu’s movements were nearly restricted. Did He Yi’an, the sect leader, truly have nothing better to do than follow him? “Your Excellency,” Shang Zhu asked consideratel...

After living on Silent Reflection Peak for years, Shang Zhu knew exactly where its silence ended. He left the wooden house beneath trees older than Lingyun Sect itself. Each had developed a spirit—and...

“Heh…” Flames licked mercilessly over Shang Zhu’s body. There was nowhere to hide inside the pill furnace, and fresh kindling kept falling from above. His wonderful master and Bai Tiansheng had done t...

“Alpha.” The word echoed through Rain’s mind. This world recognized far more than the old binary of man and woman: Alpha, Beta, and Omega. The law forbade forced matches and denied anyone the right to...

Chapter 2 Rain looked up. Celestina’s smile softened again. “Would that be all right?” Her voice was quiet, almost tentative. Rain straightened stiffly, clutching the tissue in her hand. Celestina’s g...

Chapter 27: Going Public It was the tenth day when everything finally settled. All of the assets under Yin Rui's name completed their transfer and liquidation, the pushback from the Yin family's old g...

"Someone drugged her wine." His voice was flat, calm, and somehow the calmest thing in the room. "The men responsible are being held as we speak." It should not have worked. A stranger in an expensive...

Chapter 1 New York. A little after eight in the evening. The private dining room was on the top floor of an upscale restaurant. Beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, the lights of one of New York’s wea...

The smell of smoke clung everywhere, invading Sheng Linyou's nose and making him frown. He pulled Yin Xigui's slight body closer and inspected him from every angle—front, sides, then back. Yin Xigui h...

Sometimes the world is enormous. A few walls or floors are enough for two strangers to pass each other countless times without ever knowing. And sometimes it is very small. Once two people know each o...

Qiu Yang settled into the smithy. Before dawn the next morning, Old Liao was already hammering iron out front. Hearing the blows, Qiu Yang rose, washed her face, entered the shop, and crouched beside ...

In the video, Xiaoya sobs brokenly. The sound of the waves behind me becomes the background to her despair. “ Su Qing … what do I do … I signed last night … I really did …” She chokes, barely able to ...

My mother looked from me, to Victor, to my bag in Victor's hand, and back to me. For a long moment her mouth worked without sound. Then she cleared her throat, and the smile she'd been restraining esc...

She snatched the phone back and pressed the advantage. “Mr. Sheng, when Madam said 'it's nothing,' she didn't mean it. She said it because she believes you won't take her side.” Beside her, Lin Ting l...

Zhao Jian'an stared at Qiu Yang for a long time before saying, “Then leave tomorrow.” Qiu Yang noticed nothing unusual. She nodded. “All right.” That night, she packed her bundle. She folded her cloth...

Xi Yan was taken into an enclosed metal chamber for a series of examinations. From head to toe, inside and out, he underwent twenty-three tests in all. After each one, a new group of people took him s...

When Qiu Yang rose the next morning, Zhao Jian'an was already in the courtyard. Crouched beside the well, he splashed water over his face, then stood and shook it from his hands. “Come out with me tod...

The man was tied up inside the trunk of his own car. When they opened it fully and saw the entire compartment, they were astonished. It must have undergone concealed modifications; from outside, there...

That night, Qiu Yang lay in bed thinking over Uncle Zheng's words. She turned them over again and again. After several passes, she realized something: deep down, she was not surprised. It felt strange...

In the second month of the workshop ’ s operation, ASG added three more orders. Forty ‑ two blades in total. I worked alone, fourteen hours a day, non ‑ stop. Master Zhao came by once. Seeing me grind...

Life in the apartment building was like a dream. Su Mosheng no longer woke in the deep of night. He thought of that girl with the stubborn eyes. Their farewell had not been a grand one. Unlike Su Mosh...

Qian Yu was a thriving twenty-first-century college student, a helpful young citizen of the new era who practiced patriotism, dedication, honesty, friendliness, and every other core social virtue at a...

Cloudy days were like a crumbling, besieged city, and within that city, a torrential rain had begun to fall. The endless waves were about to swallow my heart. In this profound and beautiful illusion, ...

Fang Runing descended three floors before she truly understood what Fang Ru'an had meant by “there are more of them now.” The stairwell looked the same, but something stood on every landing: figures i...
