I m not a Taoist

Fang Ming isn’t a Taoist—at least, not in the traditional sense. Raised by a mysterious master in a remote village, he possesses knowledge of ancient metaphysics, face reading, and mystical arts. Armed with these skills and the teachings of his late mentor, Fang Ming embarks on a journey that bridges the worlds of the supernatural and modern society. His path leads him to Shanghai, where his unconventional appearance and cryptic warnings set him apart in a bustling city that thrives on skepticism. When a chance encounter on the subway allows him to save Jiang Yingying, a spirited young woman, from an ominous fate, their lives become intertwined in unexpected ways. Fang Ming’s journey takes him deeper into the city’s web of wealth, power, and hidden secrets, as he fulfills promises made by his late master. When he arrives at the opulent villa of the Liang family to deliver a protective charm, he discovers the weight of past obligations and the challenges of navigating a world ruled by ambition and doubt. Blending ancient wisdom with modern dilemmas, The Super Wizard explores themes of destiny, belief, and the clash between tradition and progress. In a world where the mystical is often dismissed, can Fang Ming prove the value of his skills while staying true to the principles of his master? And as he uncovers deeper conspiracies and unexpected allies, will his journey reveal not only the power of his abilities but also the truth of who he really is?

Mehrajān's heart is a fragile mosaic, pieced together by moments with the one person who defined her world—Muazam. In this reflective and raw exploration of love and loss, Mehrajān finds herself looking back at the memories of the boy she loved, the boy who was always just out of reach. Each chapter is a separate fragment of their intertwined lives, capturing a single moment that was forever marked by him. In one chapter, Mehrajān stands frozen in her kitchen, hearing a conversation between Muazam and her aunt that shatters her heart. His rejection of her—the very person who had quietly fallen for him—leaves her feeling lost and betrayed. Yet, this is only one of the many moments that have shaped her emotional landscape. Every recollection is a mixture of passion, pain, and nostalgia—memories of fleeting glances, whispered words, and unspoken connections that shaped her world. The narrative doesn't follow a linear path but instead unfolds like a scattered collection of thoughts and emotions, each memory tied to Muazam, each one a chapter of her heart. Through these fragments, Mehrajān grapples with the complexity of love, the sorrow of unrequited feelings, and the confusion of growing up in a world of family expectations and personal desires. [ CHOOSE ME ] is not just a love story—it's a tender journey through a girl’s heart, where love is never simple, and the memory of someone can change everything. Through each chapter, readers will find themselves drawn into Mehrajān’s world, feeling the weight of her unspoken love and the bittersweet truth that sometimes, memories are all that remain.
