“Who are you?” The voice said who stared at Roselina with curiosity in his gaze. Roselina opened her eyes and saw the man's face and jumped to sit upright on the bed with a scream. She tried to get off the bed but felt soreness between her legs and realized she had slept with the man and lost her virginity to him. “Go away.” She screamed without looking at the man's face as he left the bed for the bathroom.

She met her father with his wife. “Where have you been since yesterday? Look at you, you spent your night out there with whom?” Her father yelled at her. “And who are you to ask me that? You're not my father, why yell at me like that, do you even care?” Rosalina yelled back with tears. 20 hours ago...(Yesterday)... “Don’t worry, father, I'll disappear as you want,” Rosalina yelled to her father, who was fuming with anger, his eyes all red. “How dare you raise your voice at me, you unfilial daughter.” Mr Kim Hyun Woo yelled at Rose, who was not going to engage with whom he wanted her to marry. “I dare, father, I have told you I don’t love him, U-Jin is just my friend and yet you’re forcing me to get engaged to someone I don’t love for your reasons… you can just choose your second daughter to marry him, okay.” Rose yelled and ran to her room, locking herself up. “Honey, why don’t you just leave her since she won’t listen, after all, she’s not your daughter.” Mr Kim Hyun Woo's wife, whose name was Yeri, said, rolling her eyes. “If she’s not going to do what I want, then she should leave my house.” Mr Kim Hyun Woo said angrily while Rose came out of her room and unknowingly, heard them. “What! Did she just say I’m not your daughter?” Rose said, shocked and unable to believe what she heard. Mr Kim Hyun Woo was shocked to see her because they thought she was in the room. “Huh… well… uh” Mr. Kim Hyun Woo didn’t find suitable words as he stuttered, but Rosalina stormed out angrily with tears, entered her car, and drove with speed as she couldn’t believe she was just a bastard of the Kim family. “I’m not going back to that house,” Roselina muttered to herself with tears as she tried calling her friend’s number, but it was off. Then she decided to go to her house, but she didn’t find her at home as her door was locked.

I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.

Six years later, Chu Wei was waiting for her twin daughters to finish school at the school gate. At the same time, she received news that Chen Ji had won and was about to return to the city. It was obviously good news, but Chu Wei did not have a smile on her face because she had a dream. In the dream, she was a supporting role in a book, and Chen Ji was the main character in the book. He was an iron-blooded and proud military general, the biggest backer of the female lead's family, and the stepfather of the female lead's children. In the book, she would die from childbirth. Her cute twin daughters would die early as cannon fodder. Her existence with her daughters was only to show how outstanding the female lead and the female lead's children were.

As long as she did not die from childbirth, she would be able to protect her two daughters well. After six years of separation and reuniting, Chen Ji realized that his wife was different from before.

Chen Ji, who finally coaxed his two daughters to sleep in the next room, was speechless. ""…??"" He could choose not to have a son, but he had to sleep with his wife! "

"Su Yu was tired of the high life in the city. He quit his job and went back to the countryside. He linked himself to a webcast system focusing on country life. He would livestream his carefree country life every day. Growing flowers, walking his dog, and raising a giant white snake. Life was good. However, as time went by, his audience found him to be an unusual network anchor. Fighting against tigers barehandedly. Pulling up trees hit by lightning. He even livestreamed how he conquered a group of robbers through the fire magic. His audience asked, ""Anchor, be honest with us. Are you cultivating behind our back?"" Su Yu answered, ""Of course not. Cultivation is only an illusion. How could it be real? Have some faith in the science, please!"" The audience went on, ""So, could you explain what happened to your yellow dog and white snake?"" Su Yu looked back. Not until then did he find his yellow dog had suddenly learnt to float in the air. It was right in the air at this moment. As to that white snake, it had started to shed its skin, and dragon horns and limbs were growing out. Su Yu said, ""Okay, believe me. I will find a scientific explanation for this!"" The audience said, ""Forget about that for now. Look at the thunder clouds over your head. Why don't you just admit you are going through a calamity? Don't claim it is a thundershower to lie to us. How come the lightning over your house is golden?"" Su Yu was embarrassed. He did not expect his audience to find his secret out. Since they had found it out, Su Yu would stop pretending. ""That is right. I am a cultivator. I have come clean!"" Then, in the face of the whole world, Su Yu went through the thunder calamity successfully and flew up to heaven at daytime! "

How will she react to that secret? And why does everyone keep calling her" Rosalina"?

She was a cute and tomboyish girl attending a prestigious national university in the 21st century.

The netizens were shocked, but it's true: the tsundere stepsons were extraordinarily close with their stepmother!
