[Status: CONCLUÍDO] “Feng Tianyi! Seu irmão destruiu minha família Tang! Há algo de bom na sua família?” “En. Você não está vendo como nossos genes de boa aparência são passados para nossos filhos? Quanto à dívida da família Feng, eu vou pagá-la.” Ele disse descompromissadamente. Tang Moyu zombou e cruzou os braços sobre o peito. “Como você vai pagar por isso?” “Que tal eu te pagar com o meu corpo?” “...” Tão sem vergonha! O homem sentado em sua cadeira de rodas explodiu em uma gargalhada ao ver a expressão feia dela. “Senhorita Tang, não adianta fingir que você não viu, já que você praticamente subiu na minha cama e se aproveitou de mim.” Cinco anos atrás, Tang Moyu era a imperatriz do mundo dos negócios e estava no auge de sua carreira antes de ser reduzida a nada quando seu noivo se apaixonou por outra mulher. Tudo bem, já que não havia amor entre ela e Feng Tianhua, mas quem diria que essa ‘Cinderela’ era um lobo em pele de cordeiro? Então há Feng Tianyi, o infame sucessor da família Feng, um autor aclamado pela crítica que constantemente balançava a lista dos mais vendidos com seus livros. Os boatos dizem que ele era de cabeça quente e temperamental. Ele era tão implacável, que nem homens nem mulheres queriam sua companhia. Os rumores até diziam que seu rosto era tão bonito e fora deste mundo. Ele era praticamente um deus entre os homens. Era uma pena que ele fosse deficiente. Os dois nunca deveriam se encontrar novamente, mas um par de pequenos bolinhos doces interveio. “Tio, nós não temos dinheiro para pagar pelos danos.” disse o Pequeno Bolinho mais velho. "Meus manuscritos são inestimáveis”, respondeu o tio bonito com diversão. “Tio, se você não se importa, podemos pagar com a nossa Mamãe? Ela também é inestimável.” E assim o par de pequenos bolinhos doces e o tio bonito entraram em um acordo, mas quem diria que a mulher em questão era uma rainha gelada do inferno que tinha uma estranha afinidade por doces? —— Editor/revisor: ninaviews Capa do livro: Bizzybiin / direitos autorais 2020 anjeeriku

Ava thought starting university would be exciting, but between getting lost on her first day, struggling with online classes, and surviving off snacks, she quickly realized she had no clue what she was doing. With her best friend Lydia joining her a year later, things started looking up—until a party changed everything. At the party, Ava comes face-to-face with her longtime crush—a ridiculously handsome, smooth-talking guy she’s only admired from a distance. He’s got silky hair, stunning eyes, and an effortless charm that makes everyone fall for him. Ava never thought he’d notice her… until he did. But when he finally approaches her, she panics so hard she chokes on her drink and embarrasses herself in front of everyone. Lydia watches in horror (or amusement), while Ava wonders if she can ever recover from the most humiliating moment of her life. With her current boyfriend, Elijah, giving off major red flags, and a crush who’s a known player suddenly showing interest, Ava’s university life is about to get way more complicated. Between friendships, romance, and reckless decisions, will Ava find herself—or just more trouble?
