O sistema da QI atualmente categoriza todos os romances provenientes do site chinês de novelas para mulheres (起点女生网) como 'romance' sem falhas, independentemente de serem verdadeiramente romances ou não. Então, se você está aqui apenas pelo romance, talvez queira encontrar um romance diferente. Haverá algum romance eventualmente, mas a maior parte deste romance é de ficção científica/Xianxia com muita construção de mundo e desenvolvimento de personagem. 2) Eu uso ortografia britânica. Então, por favor, certifique-se de que erros ortográficos são realmente erros antes de reportá-los. 3) Não importa o que a taxa de lançamento no topo diga, a taxa de lançamento garantida no momento é de 1 cap/dia (também conhecido como 7 cap/semana).

Son fils était également négligé. « Si je ne me trompe pas, nous sommes déjà divorcés. Tu envahis actuellement ma maison, mon cher ex. » Zhao Youlin releva son menton et s'assit au bout du canapé, les jambes croisées. Elle avait l'air fière.

Qiao Nian lebte 18 Jahre lang im Haus der Familie Qiao, bevor ihre leiblichen Eltern sie fanden. Plötzlich wussten alle wohlhabenden Familien der Stadt, dass die Familie Qiao eine falsche Tochter hatte! Eine echte Tochter einer wohlhabenden Familie wäre begabt, sanft und freundlich. Eine falsche Tochter wäre nicht in der Lage, irgendwelche Fähigkeiten zu erlernen und nichts zu erreichen. Jeder wollte sehen, wie unglücklich sie werden würde, wenn sie in ihre Schlucht zurückkehrte, nachdem sie aus einer reichen Familie hinausgeworfen worden war! Qiao Nian dachte auch, dass ihre leiblichen Eltern arme Lehrer aus dem Kreis Luohe waren. Wer wusste schon, dass ihr Bruder einen Phaeton fuhr, der dreihunderttausend Yuan wert war! Ihr leiblicher Vater war auch ein Professor, der an der Tsinghua-Universität lehrte! Der Big Boss der Familie von Abschaum wurde zum Schleimer und verbeugte sich vor ihrem Großvater...

Ihre Identität wurde aufgedeckt, und als sie in den Suchanzeigen der Stadt auftauchte, wurde die Familie des Abschaums grün. Die Anti-Fans spotteten: Was soll der Versuch, ein Bild zu fälschen? Hältst du dich nicht einfach jeden Tag an meinen Bruder? Qiao Nian antwortete: Es tut mir leid, aber ich habe bereits ein Spiel. Oberster Bruder: @Qiao Nian. Ich möchte sie allen vorstellen. Das ist meine Schwester. Wohlhabender Großvater: Meine liebe Enkelin, warum arbeitest du so hart? Wenn du ein Fahrrad willst, wird Großvater es dir kaufen! Die Reichen und Mächtigen in Peking verbreiteten das Gerücht, dass Meister Wang in seinem luxuriösen Haus eine Frau versteckte. Egal, wie sehr die Leute versuchten, ihn zu überreden, er ging nie mit ihr aus, um jemanden zu treffen. Wenn man ihn fragte, sagte er immer denselben Satz. "Meine Frau kommt vom Land und ist schüchtern." Bis eines Tages jemand sah, wie der edle und kalte Meister Wang die schlanke Taille eines Mädchens umklammerte, sich in einer Mauerecke versteckte und mit roten Augen murmelte. "Baby, wann wirst du mir einen Titel geben?" [Falsche Tochter, die aus einer wirklich reichen Familie stammt] + [Zwei große Bosse]

In a world consumed by eternal twilight, humanity wakes to a chilling proclamation from the Dread Sovereign: the ruler of life and death. The Abyssal Arbiter System is now active, and every individual receives 1 Abyss Coin, the currency of survival and power. All except for one—Jian Yu, who receives a staggering 1 Trillion Abyss Coins, a gift (or curse) granted by the Dread Sovereign for unknown reasons. This immense wealth offers Jian the opportunity to shape his fate—but it also places a target on his back. With only a single Abyss Coin to their name, the rest of humanity must struggle, trade, and survive. Meanwhile, Jian Yu navigates the depths of the Abyssal Arbiter System, using his incredible wealth and power to take on increasingly perilous trials, unlock forbidden abilities, and challenge the horrors that now roam the Earth. As apocalyptic trials descend and nightmares manifest, humanity is thrust into a macabre game. The Abyss Coins can be earned through blood, ingenuity, and survival but spent just as easily on desperate gambles and fleeting security. The line between savior and predator blurs, and only the cunning and the strong can endure this twisted gamble for survival.

Une menace. Un délinquant. Une déception. Si vous demandez à n'importe qui comment ils décriraient Jiang Yue, ce serait ces trois mots. Elle a une mauvaise réputation. Elle a quitté l'école à l'âge de 6 ans. Elle a laissé son père, qui était dans un état végétatif, pour semer la pagaille dans d'autres villes. C'est pour cela qu'elle est connue. Tout le monde pensait qu'elle passait ses journées à s'attirer des ennuis, à vivre imprudemment. Ce que les autres ignoraient, c'est que ces mots sont bien loin de ce qu'elle est réellement ! Un génie ! Elle a une mauvaise réputation car elle n'hésite jamais à utiliser la violence contre ceux qui cherchent à lui nuire. Elle a quitté l'école à l'âge de six ans car elle avait tout appris ce qu'il y avait à y apprendre ! Elle a laissé son père pour créer une machine qui pourrait l'aider à se rétablir et elle a erré pour trouver ceux qui ont blessé son père et les venger ! Elle n'épargnera personne qui a fait du mal à sa famille ! Elle trouvera ces bâtards qui ont tué son grand frère, causé à son père d'être dans un état végétatif, et blessé sa sœur.

Eine Bedrohung. Ein Delinquent. Eine Enttäuschung. Wenn Sie jemanden fragen, wie er Jiang Yue beschreiben würde, wären es diese drei Worte. Sie hat einen schlechten Ruf. Sie brach die Schule im Alter von 6 Jahren ab und verließ ihren Vater, der in einem vegetativen Zustand war, um in anderen Städten Chaos zu stiften. Dafür ist sie bekannt. Alle dachten, dass sie ihre Tage damit verbrachte, in Schwierigkeiten zu geraten und ihr Leben rücksichtslos zu leben. Was andere jedoch nicht wussten, war, dass diese Worte weit von dem entfernt sind, was sie tatsächlich ist! Ein Genie! Sie hat einen schlechten Ruf, weil sie nie zögert, Gewalt gegen diejenigen anzuwenden, die ihr schaden wollen. Sie hat die Schule im Alter von sechs Jahren abgebrochen, weil sie alles gelernt hat, was es in der Schule zu lernen gibt! Sie verließ ihren Vater, um eine Maschine zu bauen, die ihm helfen könnte, sich zu erholen, und sie streifte umher, um diejenigen zu finden, die ihren Vater verletzt hatten, und ihn zu rächen! Sie wird niemanden verschonen, der ihrer Familie geschadet hat! Sie wird die Bastarde finden, die ihren älteren Bruder getötet, ihren Vater in einen vegetativen Zustand versetzt und ihre Schwester verletzt haben. Doch die Dinge liefen nicht so, wie sie sollten. Sie ist zurück in der High School, um ihr Versprechen gegenüber ihrer Schwester einzulösen, aber warum hat sie stattdessen einen anhänglichen jungen Meister an sich gebunden? *** In einer bestimmten Nacht trafen sich Jiang Yue und Luo Zhelan in einer unerwarteten Situation. An diesem Tag hatte Luo Zhelan keine Ahnung, dass die Frau, die mit einer Waffe in der blutigen Hand vor seinem Auto stand, die Frau sein würde, die sein Leben vervollständigen würde. "Junger Meister Luo, die junge Frau ist wieder ein Trend auf Weibo!" Ein Untergebener berichtete. Der junge Meister kniff die Augen zusammen: "Was ist es diesmal wieder?" "Es stellt sich heraus, dass sie die Person hinter Allico Intelligence ist! Sie hat das Unternehmen gegründet und es zu einem der führenden Tech-Giganten des Landes gemacht!" Ein gewisser Untergebener berichtete. "Bruder Zhe, es hat sich etwas herumgesprochen!" Sein guter Freund rief ihm zu. Luo Zhelan fragte: "Was für Neuigkeiten?" "Schwägerin ist Shadow! Der Top-Assassine, der 'Fallen Vengeance' ins Leben gerufen hat! Die Liga, die aus allen gefürchteten Attentätern besteht!" "Junger Meister Luo, sehen Sie sich diesen Posten an!" "Sohn, warum nennt Direktor Wei Xiao Yue 'Schüler'?" "Bruder Zhe, Schwägerin hat Altersky erschaffen?!" "Junger Meister! Ich habe etwas über die junge Madam herausgefunden!" Ein gewisser junger Meister war verblüfft.

Jacqueline Kelly found herself compelled to sign a marriage contract in order to cover her father's mounting hospital expenses. However, this was no ordinary contract. Not only was the intended groom a notorious and domineering mafia don named Benjamin Turner, but Jacqueline also had to impersonate her twin sister, Jasmine Martin, who was rumored to be the sole object of his affection. If Benjamin uncovered her true identity, the gates of death would open for her. Jacqueline's grip on her skirt tightened as her hand trembled. Her gaze shifted from the marriage contract before her, to the polite smile of Madam Claire Turner, and then to Benjamin, who sat beside her. "Why the hesitation?" he murmured in her ear, then he poised his expensive fountain pen near the contract. Panicking, Jacqueline frantically picked up the pen, hoping he wouldn't find out she wasn't his Jasmine through her clumsiness. Will Jacqueline ultimately sign the contract, even with the dangerous mafia don as her prospective husband by her side? Will her true identity be unveiled by the man she's supposed to marry? And can she successfully fulfill the mission entrusted to her by Madam Claire Turner?

Kalypso "Kali" Brunn was searching. He was trying to find someone he once knew well, someone he'd lost without even realizing. Kali needed the man who could wholeheartedly love himself and the company of others yet live happily, even alone. That someone wouldn't need another leading their life, completely shaping every thought he had, each action he performed, and the emotions he'd felt. He simply had to see that man's lost smile once more, a smile so true and pure, and he believed the Black Manor was the best place to look. It was the perfect home for Kali to find himself again. A peaceful, private, and honest(deceptively so) abode for him to relax and heal in. It seemingly had the most perfect conditions. The only downside of the new arrangement would be that he's yet to shake off his loneliness. He's determined to get along with his new housemates, but it's proven to be hard, especially as half of them blatantly ignore him and the other half downright hate his mere presence. But who's to say the future won't change? Perhaps his clumsy, self-deprecating ways will finally garner him some much-needed attention. Maybe they'll see just how much he needs someone to stand by him, even if he happens to claim otherwise for pride's sake... Or suppose they could continue to ignore him until he stays forever stuck in his regrettable past. Kali doesn't want to think about the 'scumbag' he ran away from or the friends that hurt him. They didn't deserve his tears any more than he deserved the emotional turmoil he'd suffered through.
