Wenyan leyó un libro en el que un personaje secundario que compartía su nombre era una falsa heredera. Después de que la verdadera heredera asumiera su posición, la impostora intentó asegurar su lugar en la familia adinerada drogando al hijo mayor y haciendo un hecho consumado de un arroz cocido, solo para ser desenmascarada por la Familia Shen y terminar suicidándose en la desesperación. Wenyan estaba furiosa de ver tal final. ¿Cómo no se podría sobrevivir sin el respaldo de una familia adinerada? ¿Acaso la familia no le había proporcionado una casa de lujo y un sinfín de artículos de lujo? Solo vender esos le reportaría decenas de millones. ¡Ella era simplemente un caso perdido! Si ella fuera la Wenyan del libro, habría renunciado a su posición y simplemente habría vivido relajada como un pez salado! Pero cuando despertó de su sueño, realmente transmigró al libro. Fiel a su palabra, dejó de conspirar. De la noche a la mañana empacó sus maletas, vendió su casa, coche y bolsos, y buscó un trabajo. Toda la Familia Shen notó el cambio en Wenyan, su hija adoptada. No solo se había mudado obedientemente, sino que también nunca causó problemas de nuevo. Aún más extraño fue que ahora podían ver sus pensamientos más íntimos. «Papá, Mamá, nunca quise usurpar su nido, pero los resultados de la prueba de ADN de la verdadera hija tienen problemas. De hecho, ella es incluso más falsa que yo, la supuesta heredera.», pensó. Padres de la Familia Shen: ...... Entonces, la 'hija' perdida y encontrada fue expuesta como una impostora y llevada por la policía para ser interrogada. «Hermano mayor, ese compañero de colegio tuyo no es bueno, es un espía corporativo, el hijo ilegítimo de los archienemigos de la Familia Shen.», pensó. El hijo mayor de la Familia Shen: ...... Después, el compañero fue sorprendido robando documentos confidenciales y también fue llevado por la policía para ser interrogado. «Segundo hermano, eres una persona tan pura y noble, no debes estar con la hija de la Familia Qin, ella solo te está usando, su corazón en realidad está puesto en alguien más.», pensó. El segundo hijo de la Familia Shen: ...... Gracias, lo investigaré. «Y tercer hermano, cuarto hermano......», pensó. Al final, nadie podría haber predicho que la hija adoptada menos distinguida de la Familia Shen se convertiría en la mimada nuera.

Dragonic Scales RR In a world where duels determine everything from power to prestige, Jarek stands at the crossroads of revolution. His unique ability to craft cards, specifically tailored to a duelist’s soul, makes him a rare and dangerous player in an underground system controlled by corporate monopolies. These corporations dominate the legal production and distribution of cards, making it nearly impossible for rogue creators like Jarek to thrive. But a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is about to change that. The story begins with Jarek trading his custom-crafted cards to Benji, a nervous young duelist whose soul card—Chaos Rabbit of Trickery—has great potential but lacks the necessary support. Jarek sees an opportunity in Benji, not just to test his creations, but to use him as part of a much larger plan. The annual Card Kings tournament is approaching, a high-stakes event where the winner gains a coveted prize: the freedom to legally produce and distribute their own cards without interference from the corporations. For Jarek, this tournament represents his chance to dismantle the system that keeps independent card creators in the shadows. By partnering with powerful duelist and others, he plans to showcase the power of his custom-made cards and disrupt the carefully controlled market. But the tournament is no easy feat—it’s a brutal, cutthroat competition where duels are not just about winning, but survival. And with some of the most powerful duelists and corporate-backed teams entering the fray, the stakes have never been higher. Jarek’s strategy is to introduce chaos—literally. His custom cards, like Moonlight Chaos, turn seemingly weak, multiplying rabbits into rampaging, unstoppable forces, reflecting the unpredictable nature of his approach. He knows that if his partners can make a strong showing in the tournament, his reputation as an underground card creator will explode, drawing more attention to his abilities and challenging the monopolies. As the tournament progresses, alliances are made and broken, duels are fought in brutal arenas, and Jarek must not only outwit his opponents but also navigate the dangers of the underground world. If he can pull off his plan, he’ll gain not just the freedom to create, but the power to reshape the entire dueling world. However, failure means more than just losing—it could mean the end of his career, his freedom, and possibly his life.
