Tóm tắt

[COMPLETED] It's a race against time. But the challenge gets even harder as there is a certain difficulty that they both have to overcome. With Bai Li facing his own inner demons, will their quest for truth spiral out of control? Will he get his honour back? Who is the enemy hiding in the shadows that Xin Lei and Bai Li would have to fight? Along this journey to find their answers, will it also spark the flames of love between them? *** Amidst the booming crack of ear-piercing gunshots, Xin Lei bumped into the ex-army officer, Major Bai Li, who recently got a dishonorable discharge. He was the only hope for her who could help her in digging the truth behind not only that syndicate chasing after her life but also to find about her father and brother who have mysteriously disappeared. Together, they set out to search for the truth, but it shapes into something much darker and sinister as they learn about the case Xin Lei's father was working on - to prove a father innocent of his little daughter's disappearance, plunging them into one of the dangerous worlds, hidden from everybody. --- Scene Excerpt --- My foot was stuck in the pit and I pushed Bai Li away from me who was trying to get me out. There was no time. The sounds of sirens were growing closer and closer. How can I let the police catch him? But my strength wasn't enough. I tugged his shirt. I begged him. 'Please go.' Bai Li grabbed my arms. "Don't push me away, Xin Lei. Soldiers never leave anyone behind. It's either we are caught together or we escape together." Before I knew it, his lips were on mine. "Whatever it is, sticking together is the only option I give you." #WSA2020.

Chapter 1Prologue : Little Fu Meili

'Is this how death looks like?'

"I want to go to mommy and daddy…"

I'm crying and crying a lot. My hands and feet hurt badly. I don't know why one of the uncles tied me. This place is so scary! It is dark, and I don't like it at all. Because monsters hide in dark places, and then they eat you up! That is how it is in every story that mommy tells me at bedtime.

I looked at all these uncles. They are bad, they are really bad. They were beating up a pretty sister, and I started crying for her. Daddy says it's bad to hurt others. But then they caught me.

"Mommy...Daddy…I want Mommy and Daddy…I want to go back home…" 

I cried hard, but the uncle is smiling, but it is not like how Daddy smiles at me.

"Sorry, dear, we cannot send you back home."

I think I have seen this in a movie before. 

The bad guy would laugh and look happy when he wants to hurt the good guy.

Is he going to hurt me? But it is really painful! I don't want to get hurt!

"No, I want to go back. Why can't I?"

"Because you have seen something you shouldn't have."

I understood because I'm smart. One day, my classmate, Qingyu, hit me on the head. I told my teacher, and she punished him for it. Qingyu was mad at me that I told my teacher.

"I won't tell anybody, I promise!" 

"We cannot do that little girl. You have to die."

"Die?" I have never heard of that before.

"Didn't your Mommy tell you? It is when you go to heaven."

I remember my neighbor's kitty who didn't come to my house one day. She said, "She is resting in heaven, dear. She is living in a better place so she won't come anymore."

I cried harder. I don't know where heaven is, but I know that you never come back again. "Mommy...Daddy…No, I don't want to go there. Take me to Mommy and Daddy!"

Then a light hurt my eyes. I see someone standing at the top. It is dark, and I cannot see that person clearly. But, there is a thing shining brightly, something at the side. I cannot make out its shape.

"Uncle, are you the king?" I have seen this in cartoons. "Uncle King, I want to go to Mommy and Daddy, please!"

But he didn't say anything.

"Nobody will help you here."

I am scared. I want to run away. Even the king is a bad guy! 

But then I remembered what Daddy said.

Every story has a hero who defeats the bad guy. And as the princess captured by them, I have to help him. I quickly and quietly drew the image of the thing shining I saw on the dirt. I'm not good at drawing, but I hope my hero will understand.

The bad uncle was walking towards me, smiling, and he had a knife in his hands. I am scared because knives hurt!

"If you don't send me back to my Mommy and Daddy, then my hero will beat you up!"

But everybody laughed.

"It's the truth! One day, my hero will come and beat you all." I am trying to be brave, just like my hero. But it is hard, and I'm still crying.

The bad uncle laughed loudly. "I will wait for him."

He raised his hand.

"You are a monster. Home... Mommy...Daddy..." I am shaking badly.

Suddenly, I feel pain, lots and lots of it, even more than when I had scratched my knee, even more than when I had accidentally bumped my head on a wall. I am scared.

In my mind, I saw my mommy and daddy. They were smiling at me.

Everything was spinning. I got more scared.

I want to go to Mommy and Daddy...

Then I saw the tall figure of a man. He looked big and strong, just like a superman. I couldn't see his face, but I felt happy, very, very happy.

I know who he is.

'My hero.'

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?

The wealthy stepmom became wildly popular in the parenting show

Li Xingwan had transmigrated into a book, becoming a D-list celebrity scandal-ridden and already married. Her husband was a bad omen. Rumor had it, he was a poor and elderly man with hemiplegia. Not only that, she also had to play stepmother. In effect, Li Xingwan was just like a widow. Regarding these rumors, Li Xingwan herself remained silent. The clamoring on the internet grew more intense. "That person who appeared on screen just now, couldn't have been a woman taking care of her hemiplegic husband, could she?" "And what about that ugly freak of a stepson?" "Won't this family put on some sort of tragic drama in front of the camera?" "Li Xingwan, she's just shameless. For money, she'd even marry a hemiplegic." But... As the camera panned, who was that cold and abstinent Buddha's Disciple? And who was that soft, adorable little bun?! Ahhh! I'm going crazy!!

I have to say that I struggled to write a review for this novel, I wanted to be objective about it, but I couldn't! Because this is exactly the type of novels that I like. The endings of your chapters are really hooking! I noticed that your writing balances between descriptions, actions, and dialogs flawlessly, something a lot of writers wish to achieve! Btw, I don't say this very often, but you cover is just too good to ignore, I love it! I wish if they add a cover rating system, I'll definitely give u 10/5! I really don't have any bad stuff to say, but some of the last chapters were shorter than the first ones, I hope this isn't a lack of motivation from your side stopping you from finishing the story. Because if you don't, the universe will never forgive you! You have to continue writing! Thank you for such a great novel!

An apt title for the storyline. The story starts like a spider web, beginning from different points, inching towards the centre. The progression is rapid but realistic. The thoughts, actions and behaviour exhibited by each character are professionally displayed, in vivid format. Personally, this book is my cup of tea. 👍👍👍

Took me a while to review because I got slowed down on reading!!! >.< So here it is: BEAUTIFUL. Story, pacing, plot, and concept are well-presented. Characters — simply dynamic. I don’t usually read these types of novels but this simply gave that vibe of both a mystery and an intriguing read. Grammar-wise, I don’t see much of a problem. Nothing much I could really critique. Thank you for making such a great craft! Keep on writing!

This fellow Author of mine never fails to amaze me with her writing style. I love the way she could intrigue and attract her readers with the cliffhanging and suspense scenes in the stories. I like the mystery and action in this story. Oh my Gosh, Bai Li is so cool. Both the MCs are very special characters. Their unique situation made me love them more. They have flaws but it made them more stronger. The story is well-written, matched with an interesting and exciting plot that would surely hook its readers. Keep it up, dear Author. Wishing you the best for the Spirity Events. This story is fantastic and truly amazing.

Oh God, I love this crime mystery story. It's too exciting to read. Each chapter has twists and turns and the plot is excellent. I feel like I'm watching a movie or a series. If this story is going to be a series or a movie, I'm sure I'll be the first to see it. It's wow no more than that, there are no words to describe it. And Author I love your every books but this will be in the top of your other books. ❤️
