As the granddaughter of the wealthiest magnate in San Heith, Cynthia Shannon had been in a relationship with Joe Louise for three years, only to find her sincere affections spurned and left in the dust. Joe regarded her as a simple rural woman, and on their wedding day, he abandoned her to pursue another dazzling beauty, leaving Cynthia heartbroken. But once she decisively ended the relationship, she reclaimed her status as a wealthy heiress, inheriting a fortune worth billions. Her life then ascended to its pinnacle, yet there were always scoundrels who emerged to vex her. Amidst Cynthia's efforts to deal with these scoundrels, a certain Mr. Ford, known for inspiring dread in anyone who heard his name, stood by, applauding her with admiration. "My formidable wife," Mr. Ford praised. Cynthia Shannon replied, "Please mind your choice of words." Mr. Ford half-closed his eyes, leaning elegantly against the bed, his movements bewitching. "With this token as evidence, do you still want to deny our bond?"

Ding Shan had been a hot topic for seventeen years —from the time she debuted at the age of three with her pure and cute look, all the way until she was twenty years old. She even took home three golden actress awards at her coming-of-age ceremony when she was eighteen years old. Her life seemed so beautiful and filled with applause. However, behind that beautiful scene was a grave filled with lice. Since she was three years old, her family had treated her as their cash cow. Her parents’ wickedness caused her reputation to rapidly plummet when she was eighteen years old. What was more terrifying was that they even imprisoned her. They drugged her, beat her, used her younger sister as a threat against her, and turned her into a plaything for wealthy businessmen. Ding Shan endured the humiliation for her sister’s sake, then finally sent those beasts to prison two years later. Just as she thought she could finally clean up and live a good life with her sister, reality slapped her in the face. “Why?” Ding Shan asked her sister from where she was tied to a familiar iron bed.“No reason, really. I just hate you, so I drugged you two years ago. I’m the one who pushed you into hell. I’m also the one who posted that viral video which exposed you back then,” Ding Yuan said as she happily inspected her red nails.“Oh, by the way, you’re not my real sister either. My parents kidnapped you from some ravine. Your parents chased after you, but my father pushed them off a cliff and they died. I can’t really remember since it happened so long ago. Plus, I only heard about it occasionally, so I can’t remember the details anymore.“Also, you’re tied up here today because your boyfriend, Wen Xiu, sold you for 10 million. You’re still worth a lot of money, so you should perform well tonight. Ding Yuan reached out to pat Ding Shan’s face, then injected her with an aphrodisiac. The fiery burn that coursed through her body made Ding Shan weak, but the hatred in her heart kept her mind clear and awake. Drugged and left unsupervised, she ended her life with a knife she found in the room. As her life came to an end, Ding Shan swore that if she could start over, she would make all those who had wronged her pay all that they owed her. When she opened her eyes, she had gone back in time to two years ago! So, let’s see how she’ll turn the tide in this life!

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.

Consume, a passive effect that slightly boosts the potency of food and potions, earned him nothing but scorn. His family ignored him. The court mocked him. The nobles laughed behind his back.
