I Became Rich by Eating Melons in the Era of Literature (1970s)

  As a melon eater in the new era, Jiang Youtao is like a melon in the melon field. She is there wherever there are melons. So on a thunderstorm night with lightning and rain, she traveled through time and became a poor little girl with the same name in the 1970s.   The poor little girl lost her mother at an early age, and her scumbag father remarried. Not only did she not have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, but she also had to do endless housework and endure endless beatings and scolding.   The time when Jiang Youtao traveled through time was the moment when the poor scumbag father forced the original owner to go to the countryside to take over his stepbrother's place in order to have someone to take care of him in his old age and to smash a pot after his death.   Thinking about the environment of hunger and cold in this era, Jiang Youtao's eyes went dark. In the last second before she lost consciousness, a voice appeared in her mind:   [ Ding ~ The melon-eating system is at your service. As long as you complete the melon-eating task, you can exchange it for supplies~~]   In order to have enough food and clothes, Jiang Youtao tried hard, so she ran around in the bloody world that was a fusion of many contemporary literatures, either eating melons or on the way to eat melons.   A certain educated youth from the same educated youth point traveled through time with space supplies, but ended up being a poverty alleviation stepmother;   "The mission is here ~ Watch and mess up the first meeting between the male and female protagonists, and the rewards are: 3 meat buns, 500g beef jerky, 1kg butter melon seeds."   A young wife in the village who had just been married for one day woke up and wanted to divorce her husband and marry her ex-husband's uncle;   "Ding ~ Watch the famous scene of the heroine getting divorced and applaud in public to receive 5kg of rice, 250g of pork, 5 feet of cloth, and 1kg of salt and pepper melon seeds."   The accountant's eldest granddaughter is a well-known lucky bag, while the second granddaughter is a jinx who is plagued by bad luck;   "Ding ~ Watch the jinx star commit suicide and help her, and you will get 5kg of white flour, a chicken drumstick, and 1kg of green tea flavored melon seeds."   Jiang Youtao enjoyed eating melons, and the melon seeds in her hand kept increasing. She had to go out to sell them. Before she knew it, she had made a fortune by selling melon seeds and became a famous roasted food king after the reform and opening up. The courtyard houses in Beijing and the small houses in Haishi were no longer a dream for her. She could go wherever she wanted.   But while she was eating the melon, a figure suddenly appeared beside her. Jiang Youtao reluctantly grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave them to him: "Big brother, do you want some melon seeds?" ♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤ One-sentence summary: There are too many melons, and the melon-eating crowd is very busy.

Awakening A New Generation of Hunters

In a world where the boundaries between the supernatural and human heart blur, Zuria and Zoe are two women caught in a war between love, power, and an ever-encroaching darkness that threatens to destroy everything they know. Zuria, once a hopeful soul, is now broken by betrayal. Her heart is chained to Fin, a vampire whose promises of love and power have bound her to a life of torment and manipulation. Possessing the ability to control life energy itself, Zuria's powers grow uncontrollably, fed by the torment of her heart and the dark desires of the man who claims to love her. Trapped in a cycle of abuse, Zuria must confront the horrifying choices laid before her—sacrifice her humanity to survive, or surrender herself to the darkness threatening to consume her from within. With each passing day, the line between love and monstrosity blurs, and Zuria’s desperate need to escape becomes a race against time before she becomes the very monster she’s afraid to become. Zoe, a young woman grieving the sudden deaths of her mother and father, is left adrift in a world that no longer makes sense. Consumed by questions of life and death, she stumbles upon a hidden power within herself, awakening the ability to absorb the life force of nature. But with power comes corruption. As Zoe delves deeper into her newfound abilities, dark forces begin to stir, threatening to unravel her sanity and push her to the brink of self-destruction. As she unlocks the secrets of her power, she discovers a deeper connection to the supernatural world—and to Zuria—than she ever could have imagined. Their fates are bound together, unbeknownst to them, as dark forces from both sides of the supernatural realm collide. Christian, a demon scarred by a past of betrayal, is drawn to Zoe, tasked with protecting her from those who seek to use her as a weapon of destruction. But Zoe’s power is not the only thing that attracts Christian—something deeper, something fated, pulls him toward her. Meanwhile, Loki, the prince of Hell, watches from the shadows, his eyes set on Zuria. He believes her power could tip the balance of the war between Heaven and Hell, and he will stop at nothing to claim her as his own. As the battle lines are drawn, each woman must choose her path. Will Zuria escape the grip of the vampire who holds her heart in chains, or will she embrace the darkness that has taken root within her? Can Zoe harness her power in time to stop the ancient forces closing in on her, or will she be consumed by the darkness threatening to swallow her whole? The world as we know it teeters on the edge of destruction. A war is coming, one that will see realms clash, and forces of light and dark vie for control. Allies will be tested, and betrayals will shape the course of history. In a world of broken promises, blood-soaked contracts, and impossible choices, love will be the greatest weapon, and survival the ultimate prize. Will Zuria and Zoe save the world from the impending war between Olympus and Hell, or will their powers become the very thing that shatters it? In a final battle where every soul is at stake, both women must confront their darkest fears, confront the monsters within, and decide how far they are willing to go to claim their fates. Light and dark, love and betrayal—only one can emerge victorious.
