Lin Yuhan died in the most tragic way imaginable—betrayed by the two people he had trusted most. His fiancé, Shen Mochen, orchestrated the crash that ended his life, with help from the person Yuhan once called brother, Li Meile, a charming liar who wormed his way into Yuhan’s family and heart. His company, stolen. His name, ruined. His heart, shattered. But fate grants Yuhan a second chance. He wakes up seven years earlier—on the very day of his engagement party to Shen Mochen. The same man who would smile into his eyes while plotting his ruin. This time, Yuhan isn’t soft. He isn’t naive. He isn’t the boy who loved blindly. Now, he's calm. Cold. Calculated. A strategist with a mind like sharpened glass. He severs ties with Li Meile first, exposing the manipulative brilliance beneath Meile’s affectionate mask. Then, with precise knowledge of future markets and corporate shifts, Yuhan reclaims what was once his—making bold moves in tech and finance that rock Shen Mochen’s world before the man even understands he’s at war. But Shen Mochen notices. Yuhan, once warm and gentle, is now guarded, unreadable, commanding. The spark is still there—more dangerous and magnetic than ever. Mochen becomes obsessed with understanding this new Yuhan, not realizing the clock is ticking on a future he's doomed to repeat unless he changes. Haunted by memories he hasn’t lived and drawn to a man he can no longer control, Shen Mochen spirals deeper. Was it love? Was it ambition? Is it too late? Yuhan doesn't give second chances freely. If Mochen wants redemption, he must earn it. He must break himself open to become the kind of man who’s worthy—not of the past, but of the present Yuhan, who refuses to waste his tears or time on anyone unworthy again. The Billionaire’s Ex-Fiancé Reborn is a taut, emotional BL drama of vengeance and vulnerability, power and pride, where a wronged lover returns from the edge of death—not to beg for love, but to take back everything stolen from him. And in the ruins of betrayal, something unexpected may yet bloom again.

“I beg you, Mia. Please tell me that this child is mine,” Henry begged as he looked at the woman holding the little boy in her arms. But, just as he reached forward to hug her— “Dear brother, just what do you think you are doing? Why are you trying to hug my wife and son?” Lucas stepped in between the two with a cheeky smile on his lips. He pointed to the boy and said, “Look carefully; he is my son.” Mia snorted upon hearing the two men fighting over her son.

By favorable vote of an exceptional world summit composed of kings, emperors, and ancient mages, millions of earthlings reincarnated into an alien, medieval world governed by swords and magic to save its prophesied doom. Chained to their rules, slaves of their whims, they forgot about their civilised lives. Was it a curse or the last blessing from their original world? However, one reincarnation failed to follow the summoning—an anomaly born in error… or by design. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby: the body he should have reincarnated into. Confused and worried by the remarks of his snarky system about his heavily damaged soul, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. Armed with his mind, he'll educate the baby, watch him turn into a good youth, and weave relationships with this world's magical natives, learning their crafts and skills. However, the moment to choose loomed: Would he suffer as a ghost until he found an alternative that might not exist, or reclaim his life at the cost of the boy’s? He was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be, prompting him to question everything he knew...

When they met again, Jonathan Serge Drucker saw her with her daughter who had been diagnosed with mild autism. He coldly taunted her, 'Clarisse Balas, a daughter from another man, no wonder she's not healthy!' She indifferently replied, 'And who are you?'

He never thought that one day, after enduring the hurt he had inflicted and the trials of life, she would finally become what he desired but was no longer his.

To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water. But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face. He even had his eyes on another woman. It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love. Su Mu expressed her disdain. This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away. She also wanted to embrace Xie Yi, who had silently stayed by her side in her previous life and committed suicide by taking poison after her death. Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family. Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him. “Let’s divorce!” —– Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth. Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu? But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man. Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi. Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship. In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu. Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?” Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings. He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.” [Reading Guide] 1. True divorce, chasing the wife to the crematorium, the female lead doesn’t look back, the male lead is Xie Yi. 2. The ex-husband did not cheat, he just realized too late and didn’t realize that he liked the female lead.

“Congratulations, you have been hired as the personal assistant…” “Really!” Grace exclaimed even before Jace Brandon, the CEO of Brandon Corporations could finish his statement. The growing sparkle in Grace’s eyes did not escape the keen sight of Jace. “To my son,” he completed. “Yes, I’m very much delighted to take up the position of the personal assistant to … your what?!” Grace’s eyes almost popped out of their socket as she completed “son?” listlessly. “You heard me right,” Jace replied coldly as he stared at Grace. “Is that not the same as being employed as your child’s nanny?” Grace asked doubtfully. “If you want to put it that way, yes.” Jace replied nonchalantly. “In other words…” Grace began. “You are officially my son’s nanny, if you accept the offer,” Jace Brandon completed. “If there is nothing else, this interview is officially over.” ********* Grace Fowler, who had always dreamt of becoming a top designer in the biggest designing firm in the country was blacklisted for exposing sensitive company information due to a set up by the ones she trusted the most— her boyfriend and her kid sister.

For eight long years, Lin Shuyin waited. Five years, she loved him silently as his junior. Three years, she waited patiently as his wife. If not for the night she turned eighteen—when he, drunk and distant, took her first time—she might’ve walked away before ever becoming his wife. But instead, she stayed. Hiding her true identity behind the mask of the perfect, obedient spouse, she remained by his side like a shadow no one noticed. In all that time, he never once looked back. He built an empire while turning a blind eye to her loneliness, to the whispers behind her back, to the way the world mocked her as the shameless woman clinging to a man who never cared. Night after night, she smiled through rejection, humiliation, and the suffocating silence of a cold marriage. Until one day, she snapped. She packed her bags, signed the divorce papers, and walked out with her dignity intact and her secret—one that had shaped everything—still buried deep in her heart. But peace was short-lived. Her nausea was getting worse. Her cravings were out of control. And her suspicions were growing. Was she... pregnant? As if the universe wasn’t cruel enough, suddenly— “Shu, you haven’t eaten. I made your favorite—spicy hotpot, no cilantro.” She blinked at the towering CEO holding a soup bowl and wearing her pink apron. “What are you doing in my apartment?” “I changed your locks for safety,” he replied with a straight face. “You broke in, didn’t you?!” And just like that, the cold man who once couldn’t remember her birthday was now folding her laundry, driving her to prenatal checkups, and glaring daggers at any man who looked her way. At her OB-GYN appointment, he growled at the doctor, “You’re looking too long at her belly. Eyes up.” When she went on a blind date (forced by her best friend), he showed up with a bouquet... and a baseball bat. “Why are you following me?!” she screamed. “I’m not following. I’m just coincidentally everywhere you go,” he said, deadpan. “Coincidentally hiding behind a tree?!” She caught him once reading Pregnancy for Dummies upside down while nervously sipping her bubble tea—one he had memorized the sugar ratio for. “Are you sick?” she snapped one morning. “I miss you,” he whispered. She almost threw a slipper at his head. Worst of all? He sends her voice messages now. “Don’t forget your vitamins. I warmed your milk. Left your pillow on the cool side—just how you like it.” She stared at the screen, fingers tightening. Where was this man when she cried herself to sleep in that same cold bed for three years? Now he wants to tuck her in from afar? Is he playing a game? Is this guilt? Or... is her ex-husband actually falling in love with her now—now that she’s done loving him? Whatever it is, Lin Shuyin swears she’s not falling for it. No matter how good he looks in that apron. No matter how he holds her when she’s too tired to stand. No matter how much he whispers, "Come back home. Come back... to me."
