Abandoned

Betrothed to a Billionaire

--- Ariana was rooted to the floor outside of Anthony’s door her heart raced in her chest, like something was preparing to break apart her ribs. She had not wanted to come to a halt, much less listen in on the conversation that was unfolding before her. But the sound of laughter that came from Rachel was not new to her ears which suddenly had her face the direction of the voice like a pupet. “…you’re so bad, Anthony,” Rachel whispered sexily. “I never lie to you,” Anthony countered sullenly then suddenly grew smarmy, “I’m only bad with you.” Reaching out Ariana braced her back against the wall and her mind whirled round with confusion. Glancing around the corner she stopped breathing as she saw them. Rachel resting on Anthony laps, having her hand resting on Anthony’s arm. He leered at her, and from even his bearing suggest that he wanted something more than friendship from her. “She has not realized it yet?” Rachel asked me in low tones as if Shareen was a hopeless case. Anthony chuckled. “He realized Ariana was smart, as well as trusting in his team. That’s her weakness.” Such words are a shock for Ariana as if someone slapped her. [His fists clenched.]His hands shook, and for a moment she considered; she felt that nausea could overcome herself. Trust. That was what she had delivered to them – what she considered they deserved. And now? Now they were laughing about it, about her . She wanted to rush into the room and meet them eye to eye, look them into the eyes and scold them for every single angry word that rises within her chest. But she didn’t move. Not yet. She held a strap of her bag so tightly her hands became gloved. Indeed, she retreated sensibly, her breathing becoming light. It was not so strange they did not notice her go ; of course they did not. Why would they, if they reckoned she did not know any better? And when she came to the door of the house, shutting herself out on the cold evening, when the wind caressed her cheek like a slate, then in her soul something leaped. The heartbreak was still there, but it was buried beneath a wave of something new,rage. But she paused and with her head held high she walked away leaving her legs give away from her. The frosty night’s darkness embraced her when she tripped outside, onto the campus and grass., but the freezing air was no match for the icy sensation in her chest. She began to ponder vigorously various questions, accusations and processes of retaliation in her mind. But she didn’t see the car. This blaring of the horn was too late. There was the pathetic squealing of brakes and a moment of unbearable agony that filled her from head to toe. The world staggered, and the last thing Ariana could make out before everything went black was the night sky above her. Everything went black. ---

F**k it, I'm going to reincarnate all I want

Zhang Wei was once a disillusioned young man, a scholar who lived a life of monotony and regret. Always passed over for promotions, stuck in a dead-end job, and endlessly plagued by a lack of meaning, his world was a bleak one. Until the day he met his end—an absurd accident involving a runaway cart, a crate of fish, and a distracted street vendor. But death? It’s just the beginning. Reincarnated into a world of martial arts, mysticism, and ancient secrets, Zhang Wei discovers he's no longer just an ordinary person—he's been reborn with the soul of a powerful, long-dead sect leader. At first, it seems like a blessing. But then, things take a wild turn. The body he now inhabits is cursed, and every time he dies, he reincarnates into someone new. Each life brings new powers, new challenges, and a new chance to break free from the chains of fate. With every new reincarnation, Zhang Wei’s power grows, as does his disdain for the gods who’ve trapped him in this endless cycle. Whether he's a wandering swordsman, a ruthless martial emperor, or an assassin with unmatched speed, one thing becomes clear: he will reincarnate until he takes down the very forces that control his fate. But the more lives he lives, the more he realizes—each reincarnation has its own price, and with it, new enemies and complicated relationships. Will he break the cycle, or will he come to realize that maybe, just maybe, reincarnation isn’t as freeing as he once thought? Get ready for explosive martial arts action, mind-bending reincarnations, and a hero who's had enough of destiny.
