L'identité de Madame choque à nouveau toute la ville

Qiao Nian a vécu dans la maison de la famille Qiao pendant 18 ans avant que ses parents biologiques ne la retrouvent. Soudainement, toutes les familles riches de la ville savaient que la famille Qiao avait une fausse fille ! Une vraie fille de famille aisée serait douée, douce et gentille. Une fausse fille ne serait pas capable d’acquérir des compétences et n’accomplirait rien. Tout le monde voulait voir à quel point elle serait misérable lorsqu'elle retournerait dans son ravin après avoir été expulsée d'une famille riche ! Qiao Nian pensait aussi que ses parents biologiques étaient de pauvres professeurs du comté de Luohe. Qui aurait cru que son frère conduisait une Phaeton d'une valeur de trois cent mille yuans ! Son père biologique était aussi un professeur qui enseignait à l'Université de Tsinghua ! Le gros bonnet de la famille de canailles est devenu un lèche-bottes et s'est incliné devant son grand-père… Qiao Nian était sidérée. Euh… cela ne revenait pas au même que dire oui ! Après avoir été libérée de la famille de canailles, Qiao Nian a pu être elle-même. Elle était la première étudiante à l'examen d'entrée à l'université, une star des diffusions en direct et l'héritière d'un patrimoine culturel inestimable… Ses identités ont été révélées et lorsqu'elle a commencé à apparaître dans les recherches populaires de la ville, la famille de canailles est devenue verte. Les anti-fans se moquaient : À quoi ça sert d'essayer de feindre une image ? Tu ne fais que coller à mon frère tous les jours, n'est-ce pas ? Qiao Nian a répondu : Je suis désolée mais j'ai déjà trouvé chaussure à mon pied. Frère Aîné : @Qiao Nian. Permettez-moi de vous la présenter. Voici ma sœur. Grand-père fortuné : Ma chère petite-fille, pourquoi travailles-tu si dur ? Si tu veux un vélo, grand-père te l'achètera ! Les riches et puissants de Pékin colportaient une rumeur selon laquelle Maître Wang cachait une épouse dans sa maison luxueuse. Peu importe combien de personnes ont essayé de le convaincre, il ne l'a jamais emmenée rencontrer quelqu'un. S'il était interrogé, il répondrait la même phrase. « Ma femme vient de la campagne et elle est timide. » Jusqu'au jour où quelqu'un a vu le noble et froid Maître Wang tenir la taille svelte d'une fille tout en se cachant dans un coin de mur et en murmurant les yeux rouges. « Chérie, quand me donneras-tu un titre ? » [Fausse fille qui vient en réalité d'une famille véritablement riche] + [Deux gros bonnets]

Twisted Ways of Heaven

Fate knows that timid people won't amuse her, so she serves them plain death as a conclusion. Being a philosophy student, the sixteen year old Kanito Aramishi had a humble yet principled personality. But his dreams were rather jejune : living a decent and respectful life. If there was something he hated the most, it was standing out. He hated to become the centre of attention. However one day, his biggest fear came true, a life-changing event uprooted him from his sweet life of normalcy. Returning home one night from his high school's farewell party, Kanito finds himself struck in an array of supernatural events. He is stabbed in the chest by a mysterious man and as he is about to die, he sees ferrocious, otherworldly creatures appear out of countless red portals. "Please God, give me refuge in Heaven." is what he ponders on the brink of his death, but then, a saviour descends down from the skies who whisks him away to a different world. In this new world, Kanito finds out that a mysterious race called the "demons" have waged a war against possibly every life form in existence. He learns that the destruction of his world was not merely an apocalyptic event but a planned invasion by this race. This single event landed the first blow to the strong foundations of his morality. The night he bid farewell to his school became the night he bid farewell to his own world. He accquired the status of a refugee, a stain that he will carry forever. What is this growing cruelty inside? Is violence, hatred and horror justified in a cruel world? What will Kanito choose – the newfound cruelty or the long-cherished empathy? Will he stick to his beliefs or will he give them all an egregious definition? Those will answered as the march of time continues revealing the refugee's and eventually the world's true purpose.

A Wolf's Howl, A Fairy's Wing

This story is about love, revenge, the quest for power, and the right to exist. After being betrayed by his childhood crush and losing his loved ones to a human raid, Erik, a werewolf, ends up on another planet for seven years before he returns to a vastly changed, post-apocalyptic Earth. Originally a timid, unadventurous man, Erik has become far more dominant and assertive upon his return. Together with him comes his beloved but ruthless soul-bound partner and fairy, Elora, who wants Erik to rule and conquer with her by his side. Elora's presence alone makes Erik more powerful than others at this level, but will he find out what else makes him special? Follow them as they use the knowledge and strength they gained on Söl to navigate an Earth filled with magic, vampires, shapeshifters, and more. Along the way, Erik and Elora will meet a diverse cast of characters, some of whom Erik might have known in the past, and some he did not, but all with their own story and desires. Will Erik be able to take revenge for the betrayals of the past? And what else will he discover along the way? ****** Disclaimer: There will be some R18 scenes, but most of the time, they will be a part of character development and not simply smut. In other words, if you decide to skip them, you'll likely miss out on some character development, but I promise to keep plot development out of it. No NTR No Yuri (there might be interactions between girls when there is a scene with the MC and more than one woman, though the MC will always be the focus. To be clear, yuri means a romantic/physical relationship between two women, meaning no two women will ever have sexual interactions with each other without the MC present. That said, Elora enjoys serving women up to him on a platter, and watching him have sex with them. She enjoys dominating, observing. and playing with the other women in the MC's harem together with him, and thus will occasionally join him in such a way. I don't believe any of that is technically yuri, but I understand that my interpretation is debatable and if any of those things weird you out, I advice you to avoid this novel.)

These Babies Are Not Yours, Alpha Axton

[WSA 2025 ENTRY] MATURED CONTENT In Cinder Pack, one out of the seven superior packs, abandoned children on the streets are considered less than the pets owned by many households. They live from hand-to-mouth, covered in dirt and used however those from better families deem fit. As a result, many of them die from starvation at very young ages and those with good-looking appearances sell themselves off to better families in order to live.   While a select few resort to stealing food and taking the crumbs that fall off the table of those of noble birth. This is the case for Aurelia Night and her childhood best friend, Lydia Hayes. But her already miserable life takes a darker turn when she overhears a conversation she shouldn’t.  To hide from the evil men seeking to take her life, she spends the night with a stranger… who kept murmuring something about her being his mate.  The next morning, she is brutally betrayed by the only family she has and hauled off a cliff to die — but she survives. Though she loses her memory, she doesn’t lose the twin boys growing in her belly… Now, seven years later, she has become a reputable member of the rogue community, whose population was quickly declining.  Given the task to kill the head of the hunt itself, Cinder Pack’s twisted and ruthless Alpha, Axton Wolfe, a man who takes relish in the most gory things in life, she finds a way into his residence, working as a maid.  Unaware of the plot on his life, the usually conserved and ruthless man with a hatred for timid and weak things, is disgusted when he finds himself repeatedly drawn to the seemingly timid and weak maid in his residence.  But the harder he craves her, the more she despises him.  That is… until she finds out a shocking truth about him.  When ‘kiss’ comes to shove and she has to sink a knife into his heart to live, will she? … To clarify: There will be quite a number of grim things.  Male lead is more than morally grey, twisted, obsessive and possessive. Female lead is tough, thinks on her feet, can stand up for herself, but has no wolf… so a damsel in distress.  Enemies to Lovers? Definitely.  Smut? Well, male lead is OBSESSIVE AND POSSESSIVE!  (I don’t know how long this novel will be, but definitely over 300 chapters.) Welcome to Aurelia Night and Axton Wolfe’s tortured love story.

Raise Love

[Handsome and Mischievous & Sweet and Soft Girl] [Unrequited Love Comes True + Sweet Pampering + Both Pure] Ryder once found a pink love letter in a math book. The handwriting of the young girl was elegant, with shyness and youth between the strokes. The content of the love letter was very short, unsigned, and only one sentence: "Today I saw you, and suddenly I wanted to take you to Laguna Beach to see the sea." ... Aria has done two out-of-the-ordinary things in her life. One was writing an unsigned love letter when she was young. The second was secretly loving Ryder for six years, then gritting her teeth and repeating a year to get into the same university as him. She is not smart, and this is all she can do. People who know Aria say she has a reserved personality, beautiful but like a handful of ice and snow in the winter mountains, gentle yet aloof. Only Ryder knows that aloofness is just her protective color, the girl is timid and vigilant, squatting by the roadside in the misty morning to feed the stray cats of the school. He witnessed Aria's fear and helplessness when she was trapped in a nightmare. He saw her, after drinking, clutching his sleeve, her apricot eyes wet, looking as if she had lost the whole world. The girl's eyelashes trembled as she confessed her feelings to him, her voice soft and helpless, choking on her words: "I, I turned back, but he is just very good..." He is not good. Ryder thought, as if bewitched, it was her. Once fallen, there is no cure. Later, he took her to see the sea of "Kekexili", knelt on one knee for her, and gently kissed her ring finger under the girl's slightly red eyes. At the age of twenty-two, in the morning, holding her hand, the other hand held their marriage certificate. In this book, we will witness the two-way journey of a wealthy, handsome, and mischievous young man and a sweet, soft girl, six years of life, from middle school to high school, and then to university, starting from secret love and running towards the marriage hall.
