“Boss. Aren’t you too greedy? You are selling this husky mutt for 500,000?” A cute girl in a ponytail held a husky puppy, whose eyes looked exceptionally wise, in her arms as she glared at Lin Ye. Her gaze was accusing him of being a dishonest trader. Lin Ye explained, “Miss, I have to formally inform you: this is not a husky mutt.” The girl retorted, “Don’t you dare trick me.” “I’m serious. It has the bloodline of Cerberus. Its potential is limitless.” The girl was stunned by Lin Ye’s words. After pondering for a moment, she realized that what he said was absurd. Agitated, she yelled, “Are you sure? I don’t believe it!” Lin Ye gestured at the husky in her arms as he said, “Little fella, get down and show your future owner what you can do. Go!” “Woof!” The girl shrieked in horror as she witnessed the little husky spit out a fireball the size of a fist. …… Many years later, Lin Ye has crowned the Father of Beast-taming of the Blue Planet. When he was interviewed, he said forlornly, “It all started with a husky mutt.” At the same time, in a mansion, a gigantic red dog with three heads sneezed. Then, it barked at the television before it. “Woof!”

Family is a luxury not everyone can afford. Adelyn learned that the day Clara returned to the Scott family —and she quietly stopped belonging. No one abused her. No one hurt her openly. But the love that was once hers alone became divided. The attention that once chose her … became something she had to borrow. And whenever something precious stood between her and Clara —Adelyn was the one asked to let go. Not once. Not twice. But every single time. Her dreams. Her choices. Her place in the family. Her heart didn’t break in a single moment —it wore down slowly … until nothing remained worth fighting for. So, she erased herself from their world. Not in anger. Not in revenge. But to save what little of herself was left. ————— Seven years later, Adelyn returned. Not for the Scott family. Not for their love. She came back for the dreams she was once forced to abandon —and this time, nothing would be taken from her. No compromises. No sacrifices. Only her life. Her rules. She breathed in freedom. “No family…no shackles.” But just then— Two small arms wrapped around her legs, making her stiffen. When she looked down to check, she met a pair of familiar doe eyes staring up at her with unwavering trust. “Mama … Eira waited long for you. Don’t leave again.” …Mama? Before she could understand or react, a tall shadow fell over them. A man stood there —gaze sharp, cold, claiming —looking at her like she had belonged to him. “You dared to show up again?” Adelyn felt clueless. She would have asked him what he meant, however — Before she could speak — the ground vanished beneath her feet. A powerful arm lifted her effortlessly. “Since you dared …” his voice dropped —low, restrained, dangerous. “Don’t think of escaping again.

Thirteen Veins: Stars and Crescent – Brotherhood Across Borders In the shadows of global finance, geopolitics, and ancient alliances lie the Thirteen Veins—the invisible arteries connecting wealth, power, and survival across continents. This monumental epic saga weaves together the destinies of men from vastly different worlds: a European noble and jurist, a Southeast Asian strategist, a mountain tribal chieftain, a master of overland and maritime routes, a Middle Eastern tycoon, and an heir to steppe clans, among others—each holding a piece of an enigma that no single man could ever decipher alone. Bound by an ancient oath of brotherhood (Fair and Square), yet tested by ruthless commercial rivalries, political conspiracies, and secrets buried for centuries, they navigate between the opulence of imperial auction houses and the deadly peril of clandestine docks and isolated mountain gorges. What begins as a struggle for control over strategic resources and global trade routes soon transforms into a far deeper journey: the true meaning of camaraderie, loyalty, and unwavering trust. From the galleries and opera houses of Paris to the rugged peaks of Yunnan, from the Gulf deserts to financial hubs and the dark waters of imperial ports, each volume unveils new layers of conflict, wit, and sheer resolve. The Thirteen Veins are not merely financial networks or trade routes—they are the bonds of blood and honor that tie their fates together through every storm. Crafted with sharp precision, financial intrigue, and visceral combat, Thirteen Veins: Stars and Crescent – Brotherhood Across Borders is far more than a story about power and fortune: it is an epic of wisdom, presence of mind, and unbreakable fraternity, proving that even when the world demands you walk alone, true brotherhood never lets a brother fall.
