Synopsis

Bankruptcy, divorce, wife's betrayal! At 35 years old, Yang Hao suffered a triple whammy! Yet, amidst such a desperate situation, he accidentally inherited a fortune from the game "Monopoly". From then on, life underwent earth shattering changes! Money, reputation, status, commercial empire. Ex-wife knelt down and begged for remarriage? Sorry, when I was in trouble, you left me. Now that I'm better, you want to come and enjoy the glory and wealth?! you do not deserve!

Chapter 1Monopoly-Game System

Entrance of the Jianghan District Civil Affairs Bureau.

Yang Hao tucked the divorce certificate he had just received into his jacket pocket, then took out his smartphone and opened the Kangaroo Delivery Rider app to go online.

Due to the divorce, he hadn't accepted a single order since this morning.

"Delivering food all the time isn't a long-term solution. You should find a stable job."

"And besides, Xixi is growing up. Having a dad who delivers food will embarrass her."

Li Manshu stood in high-heeled shoes, wore tight jeans, and a khaki-colored Goliya trench coat open to reveal a white knitted sweater underneath. She had a graceful figure that showed no signs of having given birth to a child.

At this moment, she stood atop the steps, while Yang Hao stood below, only able to look up at her.

This was symbolic of their relationship at home before their marriage ended.

"Earning money through honest work, without stealing or robbing, is nothing to be ashamed of."

"Xixi will understand me."

Yang Hao replied lightly.

He didn't hate the woman who had been a part of his life for six years, the one who had borne him a lovely daughter.

He just felt he had been blind, and had misjudged the person.

After all, it was Li Manshu who had pursued him intently in the beginning.

Six years ago, the 29-year-old Yang Hao owned two hot pot restaurants, each covering an area of two hundred square meters.

At that time, the business was booming, and his annual income was six to seven hundred thousand yuan; life was quite comfortable.

It was also that year he met Li Manshu, who worked part-time in his restaurant.

She was young and beautiful, seven years his junior, and she took the initiative to court him.

Yang Hao, of marriageable age, quickly took a liking to this hardworking, sensible, and gentle "little sister."

The two quickly became a couple, and Li Manshu went from being a part-time waitress to the boss of the two hot pot restaurants.

Not long after their marriage, Li Manshu became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter the following year.

At 30, Yang Hao felt like the proverbial winner in life.

With modest success in his career, a beautiful wife, and a newborn little princess.

To provide a better life for his wife and daughter, he began to expand the scale of his hot pot restaurants, and after some time, he finalized three new locations, increasing his business to five restaurants in total.

He became the owner of five hot pot restaurants and dreamt of expanding his business nationwide, aspiring to become a well-known national hot pot chain, much like Haidilao.

However, an unexpected "disaster" changed everything.

Initially, Yang Hao didn't worry too much, thinking it would soon pass, and even enjoyed the time he could spend at home with his wife and daughter.

Yet the disaster was far more severe than he had imagined. He struggled through the first and second years, but ultimately succumbed in the third.

All five hot pot restaurants shut down, his savings drained away, and he was left with a bank loan to pay off.

Then he discovered his once gentle and virtuous wife had changed.

She became harsh and critical.

She became solely profit-driven.

Her love and respect for him had vanished.

She would occasionally mock him with veiled insults.

To survive, Yang Hao started looking for jobs, but with just a bachelor's degree during a time when qualifications seemed devalued, finding work was hard. Fresh graduates struggled to find jobs, not to mention a 35-year-old man like him. Many job advertisements set the cut-off at 35 years old, a barrier he couldn't cross.

To make money, he had no choice but to deliver food.

Li Manshu, a married woman with an exceptional appearance and demeanor, managed to find a decent job.

As a result, there was a dramatic shift in their household status.

A month ago, Li Manshu, as expected, asked for a divorce.

Yesterday marked the end of a one-month cooling-off period, and today she couldn't wait to call Yang Hao to get the divorce certificate!

She perfectly exemplified the saying, "In times of prosperity, friends are plentiful, but in adversity, not even one remains."

It's easy to be with someone in good times, but sharing hardship is much harder.

When you are blessed with a wealth of material goods, 90% or even 99% of women can lead a happy life with you.

But when material wealth is scarce, that percentage drops significantly.

There will always be women willing to share a man's fortunes and misfortunes, but sadly, Li Manshu was not one of them.

Ding!

The Monopoly-Game System has been successfully installed...

Host: Yang Hao

Age: 35

Height: 182cm

Weight: 192 jin

Wealth: -215,000 yuan

Health: 68

Intelligence: 78

Combat Power: 65

Skill: None

Main Quest Progress: 0%

Ding!

You have a new task!

As a tycoon, you should have a healthy body. It has been detected that the Host's weight exceeds the standard, posing a potential health risk.

Task Content: Lose weight

Task Reward: The Host will be awarded 100,000 yuan for every jin lost; if the Host's weight drops to 150 jin, the main quest progress will increase by 1%!

This...

The sudden alert in Yang Hao's mind startled him.

The Monopoly-Game?

Is it the one I often play?

Yang Hao hurriedly checked his phone, only to discover that the Monopoly-Game that had always been on his phone had disappeared!

"If you weren't Xixi's father, I wouldn't bother saying another word to you!"

"One more piece of advice, for Xixi's sake, you should find yourself a decent job!"

Di di di...

At that moment, a black BMW parked by the roadside started honking its horn repeatedly.

The driver's window rolled down, and a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses gestured to Li Manshu.

"Take care of yourself!"

Li Manshu did not linger; she tossed out those words and walked towards the BMW 5 Series.

Ding!

You have received a new order.

At the same time, the familiar Kangaroo Takeout notification sound came from Yang Hao's phone.

He glanced at the order information subconsciously—the pickup location was a cake shop one kilometer away, and the delivery neighborhood was less than two kilometers from there, making it a quality order.

Right now, Yang Hao couldn't be sure whether the Monopoly-Game System was real or fake, but life had to go on. He took a deep breath and then mounted the electric scooter beside him.

"Bro, don't worry."

"I'll take good care of Manshu!"

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses stuck his head out from the driver's seat and boasted smugly.

Heh!

Ptui!!

Yang Hao couldn't be bothered to waste words with such people; as he started the electric scooter, he spat right at them.

Holy fuck!!

The two were fairly close, and the spit—a vintage product of '82—landed right on the man's nose.

The phlegm slid down and slowly dribbled onto his lips.

Li Manshu hurriedly took out a tissue to help wipe it away.

"What kind of quality is this!"

"What the fuck kind of quality is this!"

"CNMD!!!"

After wiping off the phlegm that nearly entered his mouth, Shen Mingshan burst into furious curses.

"My dear, let's not stoop to his level."

"Just a stinking delivery man, what kind of quality can he have?"

Li Manshu hurriedly comforted him on the side.

"You must have been blind to pick such a man," Shen Mingshan sneered and complained, then wiped his face with a wet wipe.

"I was young back then, I didn't understand..."

Li Manshu whimpered softly, looking pitiful.

"Alright, enough of the past. Let's go have a big meal to celebrate!" Shen Mingshan pinched the woman's cheek and then started the car.

PAMPERED BY MY THREE BROTHERS: THE RETURN OF THE NEGLECTED HEIRESS

Penny has three brothers: one is a billionaire CEO, the second is the youngest military lieutenant, and the last is a successful actor. These three successful men had only one common ground: bullying Penny, their sore-eye of a little sister. The sister they never wished to have, and the one who claimed to be their real sister, while the sister they treasured all this time was a fake. After living a life of maltreatment in her aunt's home, some people of high standing came to Penny with news of her real parentage. She thought she was finally saved from her aunt’s clutches, unaware that what awaited her was worse. At 13, Penny only wished for one thing: for her brothers to love her and treat her like family, just as much as they loved their fake sister. She worked and studied ten times harder than anybody else just to be accepted by them. In her desperation, she foolishly fell into a trap set by a malicious person, not knowing her actions would result in the downfall of her brothers and her ending up in jail with a death sentence. On her execution day, Penny had only one thought in mind: If she ever got to go back in time, her brothers could pamper their fake sister for all she cared! She wanted nothing to do with them! And much to her surprise, Penny found herself back on the day it all began: the day she was born. As promised, this time, she wouldn’t foolishly try to earn her brothers' love and affection. Never mind family! She’d just make a lot of money, live in luxury, and make a family of her own! But wait, why is it now that she didn’t want anything to do with her brothers, they kept poking their noses into her business? Weren’t they supposed to pamper their fake sister? Why won’t they leave her alone?! And how on earth was she married in this lifetime? To make matters worse, this husband she never had in her first life was suddenly volunteering to be the father of her children?!

Earth's Greatest Magus

#Top 20 Webnovel Best Sellers 2021, 2022, 2023, and in 2024 #### History is said to be written by the victors. If so, how about Earth's history? Two millennia ago, a young boy named Emery met a tragic fate. In his final moments, he was transmigrated and accepted into the Universe's most prestigious school of magic. “You are among the chosen few from thousands of human worlds. Whether you seize this opportunity or not, is up to you. You are at Magus Academy, the pinnacle of humanity's ingenuity. Magic, science, and might are all within reach for those who dare to pursue them." [Scan complete - Quadruple affinity. Water, Earth, Plant, and Darkness.] "A quadruple acolyte! Only one in tens of thousands of acolytes possess this!" Thus began Emery’s journey together with his 4 friends from the furthest corner of Earth. Each year they returned to Earth to grow, seek revenge, save the princess, conquer the world, and become Earth's Greatest Magus. Their names are still etched in our history books to this day. Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.
