Wenyan membaca sebuah buku di mana karakter pelengkap yang membagi namanya adalah seorang pewaris palsu. Setelah pewaris sebenarnya menempati posisinya, sang penipu mencoba mengamankan posisinya di keluarga kaya dengan mendoping putra tertua dan membuat urusan selesai dengan nasi sudah menjadi bubur, hanya untuk diungkap oleh Keluarga Shen dan akhirnya melakukan bunuh diri dalam keputusasaan. Wenyan marah melihat akhir cerita seperti itu. Bagaimana mungkin seseorang tidak bisa bertahan hidup tanpa dukungan keluarga kaya? Bukankah keluarga telah menyediakan rumah mewah dan banyak barang mewah? Menjual semua itu saja bisa mendapatkan puluhan juta. Dia hanya kasus yang tidak berharap! Jika dia adalah Wenyan dalam buku itu, dia akan menyerahkan posisinya dan menjalani hidup santai seperti ikan asin! Namun, ketika dia bangun dari tidurnya, dia benar-benar terpindah ke dalam buku itu. Sesuai dengan ucapannya, dia berhenti merencanakan. Semalaman dia mengemas barangnya, menjual rumah, mobil, dan tas, dan mencari pekerjaan. - Seluruh Keluarga Shen menyadari perubahan pada Wenyan, putri angkat mereka. Tidak hanya dia pindah dengan patuh, tetapi dia juga tidak pernah membuat masalah lagi. Lebih anehnya lagi adalah bahwa sekarang mereka bisa melihat pikiran terdalamnya! 【Ayah, Ibu, saya tidak pernah ingin merebut sarang kalian, tetapi hasil tes DNA putri sebenarnya memiliki masalah. Bahkan, dia lebih palsu daripada saya, si pewaris palsu.】 Orang tua Keluarga Shen: ...... Kemudian 'putri' yang telah lama hilang dan baru ditemukan terungkap sebagai penipu dan dibawa oleh polisi untuk diinterogasi. 【Kakak, teman sekolahmu itu tidak baik, dia adalah mata-mata perusahaan, anak haram dari musuh besar Keluarga Shen.】 Putra tertua Keluarga Shen: ...... Setelah itu, teman sekolahnya tertangkap mencuri dokumen rahasia dan juga dibawa oleh polisi untuk diinterogasi. 【Adik kedua, kamu adalah orang yang murni dan mulia, kamu seharusnya tidak bersama dengan putri Keluarga Qin, dia hanya menggunakanmu, hatinya sebenarnya tertuju pada orang lain.】 Putra kedua Keluarga Shen: ...... Terima kasih, aku akan menyelidikinya. 【Dan adik ketiga, adik keempat......】 Pada akhirnya, tidak ada yang bisa memprediksi bahwa putri angkat paling tidak menonjol dari Keluarga Shen akan menjadi menantu perempuan yang dimanja.

Wenyan leu um livro no qual uma personagem coadjuvante que compartilhava seu nome era uma herdeira falsa. Depois que a verdadeira herdeira assumiu seu lugar, a impostora tentou garantir seu lugar na família rica drogando o filho mais velho e fazendo um fato consumado de um arroz cozido, apenas para ser desmascarada pela Família Shen e acabar cometendo suicídio em desespero. Wenyan ficou furiosa ao ver tal desfecho. Como alguém não poderia sobreviver sem o apoio de uma família rica? Não lhe havia a família proporcionado uma casa luxuosa e inúmeros bens de luxo? Apenas vendendo-os já arrecadaria dezenas de milhões. Ela era apenas um caso perdido! Se ela fosse a Wenyan do livro, teria abdicado de sua posição e apenas vivido relaxadamente como um peixe salgado! Mas quando ela acordou de seu sono, ela realmente transmigrou para dentro do livro. Fiel à sua palavra, ela parou de tramar. Durante a noite ela arrumou suas malas, vendeu sua casa, carro e bolsas, e procurou um emprego. - A Família Shen inteira notou a mudança em Wenyan, sua filha adotiva. Não só ela havia se mudado obedientemente, mas nunca mais causou nenhum problema. Ainda mais bizarro era que agora eles podiam ver seus pensamentos mais íntimos! 【Pai, Mãe, eu nunca quis usurpar seu ninho, mas os resultados do teste de DNA da verdadeira filha têm problemas. Na verdade, ela é ainda mais falsa do que eu, a herdeira falsa.】 Pais da Família Shen: ...... Então a 'filha' há muito perdida que havia sido encontrada foi exposta como uma impostora e levada pela polícia para interrogatório. 【Irmão mais velho, aquele colega seu não é bom, ele é um espião corporativo, filho ilegítimo dos arqui-inimigos da Família Shen.】 Filho mais velho da Família Shen: ...... Posteriormente, o colega foi pego roubando documentos confidenciais e também foi levado pela polícia para interrogatório. 【Segundo irmão, você é uma pessoa tão pura e nobre, você não deve estar com a filha da Família Qin, ela está apenas usando você, o coração dela está de fato em outro.】 Segundo filho da Família Shen: ...... Obrigado, vou investigar isso. 【E terceiro irmão, quarto irmão......】 No final, ninguém poderia ter previsto que a filha adotiva mais discreta da Família Shen se tornaria a nora mimada.

Wisnu tak pernah menyangka bahwa pekerjaannya di sebuah toko roti akan membawanya ke sebuah pulau terpencil—tempat di mana laut biru berkilauan, angin membawa aroma asin, dan kehidupan berjalan dengan aturan yang jauh berbeda dari yang ia kenal. Di antara adonan yang mengembang dan senyum ramah penduduk lokal, ia berpikir bahwa ini hanyalah sebuah awal baru yang sederhana. Namun, ia segera menyadari bahwa pulau ini menyimpan lebih dari sekadar ketenangan. Dua suku utama, Ranaha dan Vahaya, telah lama terikat dalam hubungan yang rapuh. Dan kini, ketegangan itu semakin mendidih, memuncak di Festival Baranthaka—sebuah tradisi yang seharusnya menjadi ajang pelepasan, namun justru berubah menjadi pemicu tragedi. Dua putri dari masing-masing suku, Riana dari Ranaha dan Vaya dari Vahaya, berdiri di dua sisi pertentangan yang berbeda. Keduanya memiliki kepentingan, ambisi, dan rahasia mereka sendiri. Dan entah bagaimana, Wisnu mendapati dirinya terjebak di antara mereka. Ketika darah tertumpah dan peraturan yang tak tertulis dilanggar, Wisnu dihadapkan pada pilihan: tetap menjadi orang luar yang hanya menyaksikan dari kejauhan, atau melangkah ke dalam kekacauan yang kian tak terhindarkan—tanpa jaminan bahwa ia bisa keluar dengan selamat.

Abused and thrown away in a container, Mallory, eighteen years old, thinks that this is it; this is how her life is ending and what a tragic life it has been. But fate isn't done with her yet. Hunter Brown, a low-life gangster, is passing by an alleyway when he is alerted by the cries from a rolled-up carpet thrown in a container. She told him to let her die, but he decided to save her life. This is a novel about generations of secrets of the Wraith family being unfolded and an abused and broken girl who has to run for her life while trying to heal and start over. ________________________________________ Mallory walked into the dayroom, balancing a stack of dirty plates in her hands, each step echoing heavily on the floor. Seizing the moment, an uninterested Calvin Wraith decided to trip her as she passed by his seat, where he was engrossed in playing Snake on his phone. With a loud crash, Mallory stumbled and fell, sending the plates crashing to the ground and scattering everywhere. The commotion caught Mrs. Wraith's attention, and she rushed into the room, fuming with anger at the chaos. "Stupid girl!" Mrs. Wraith scolded and placed a hard slap across Mollory's face. With ringing ears and burning tears in her eyes, Mallory took a deep breath, striving to keep her voice steady as she pleaded, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Wraith. I'll clean this up right away." Lowering her gaze, she could hear Calvin snickering from the sofa, a smug grin on his face. "Yes, you will. I expect this room to be spotless in under an hour," Mrs. Wraith snapped, shoving Mallory aside before storming out. "Why did you do that?" Mallory asked, her voice strained as she looked up at Calvin after Mrs. Wraith had closed the door. Calvin stood up and moved closer, stopping just inches away from the frightened Mallory.

In the near future, "New Era Biology", a global giant in genetic technology, has developed a genetically modified drug named "Wolfblood Serum", claiming that it can cure terminal illnesses and enhance physical fitness. However, the drug accidentally activates the ancient werewolf genes in humans, leading to the emergence of the "Wolfblood" group on a global scale. They possess the form of wolves, superhuman self-healing abilities, and heightened perception, but are rejected by society due to their uncontrollable bloodthirsty instincts. The protagonist, Irene (a hybrid Wolfblood with half-human and half-wolf genes), is drawn into the "Genetic Hunting Ground" - a global survival competition manipulated by a dark web organization. The participants are required to hunt down other Wolfbloods to seize genetic fragments, and the final winner will obtain the "Perfect Serum" to lift the bloodthirsty curse. As the competition progresses, Irene discovers that behind the hunting ground lies a doomsday conspiracy of New Era Biology, and her genes are actually the key to unlocking the code of human evolution.
