Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

That summer afternoon, spent beside the being who had become the heaviest in my world, with the verdure of the season deepening within the confines of my lone space, self-isolated from others. Solitude was no longer an option for me. A life without Woonu only promised loneliness.... more>>

I lost my family and experienced the loneliness that lingered in their absence, living a lonesome life without holding anyone close to my heart, stewing in my solitude. Loneliness and solitude cannot coexist. Only those who have chosen solitude know of this truth.

Solitude is a blank, and loneliness is a dearth that seeks to be filled. Because solitude is closer to nonpossession than it is to resignation, while loneliness is like a jar with a leaky bottom. That imperfectly solid blank of mine, built from my fleeing of loneliness, became desperate to contain a whole being.

Woonu, having felt the rain at the tip of his fingers, arm stretched beyond the eaves, suddenly straightened his legs and leaned his upper body forward.

“Huh? A green frog!”

“Where? Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

“There, over there! Oh, oh, it’s jumping!”

“Oh, there really is one.”

“Where did it come from? Has it always lived here?”

I quietly gazed at the side of his face, his mouth agape with a bright smile adorning it.

Where did you come from? Where did you come from for it to feel as though you’ve always been here? <<less

In the mansion of the Duke of Tang in Jinyang, a pair of twin brothers resided. The elder brother, Li Shimin, was physically robust and excelled in martial arts, while the younger, Li Xuanba, had been consuming medicines from the time he was born. It was often said that twins shared a mysterious telepathic link. Li Shimin, the second son of the Duke, confirmed these rumors to be true.... more>>

After several moments of shock caused by the astonishing words originating from Li Xuanba's mind, Li Shimin decided to confront his twin. "Xuan, do you know that each time you focus your mind, I can hear your thoughts? Can you possibly stop doing so? I prefer not to listen." Li Xuanba, known far and wide as the fragile son who was always under the weather retorted, "No. If you're dissatisfied, you can talk as well." Li Shimin, though physically healthy but mentally not as robust as Li Xuanba, tried with all his might to conjure a mental expression, only managing to squeeze out a single character after turning a shade of purple. "Ah!!!!!!!" This left Li Xuanba almost laughing himself into convulsions.

In his previous life, Li Xuanba worked as an editor for a historical marketing account. He had specialized in trolling Li Shimin to gain traffic. However, after overworking himself to death one night, he was reborn as the fragile twin brother of Li Shimin, a character from a historical fiction novel famous for a bravery akin to that of Xiang Yu, but in reality died of illness at the age of sixteen. Li Xuanba thought, "Oh ho, this is retribution." Regardless, he decided to go with the flow, even telling his brother, "Hey, if you want any spoilers, I'll tell you!" Li Shimin, exasperated, retorted, "I don't want to hear anything!!"

Years later, Li Shimin was adorned in dragon robes, his hands stained with fresh blood. Li Xuanba, frail as ever, was still alive. One day, after Li Xuanba fell onto the ground pretending to faint after an argument with Wei Zheng, Li Shimin hoisted his brother onto his back and set off running, just like when they were children. "Hahaha, brother, you should have seen how twisted old Wei's face was!" Li Xuanba laughed. "Shut up!" replied Li Shimin. "Congratulations, brother. You can finally say two words, hehe." Once again, Li Shimin displayed a grimace of annoyance, carrying his bothersome brother forward with each step.

Footnote:
This is a story that the author enjoys writing, filled with palace intrigue, sibling rivalry, and acts of patricide. It's an alternative history, filled with many unfounded rumors and private settings. The dialogs and appellations are more modernized instead of being authentic to the Tang Dynasty. The main characters are far from perfect: Li Shimin has his flaws as a feudal emperor; Li Xuanba is even less of a good person, his main priority being his own well-being. Updates are daily. If any changes, an announcement will be made.

Next up is the lengthy novel "Ren Xiaojun Liu Ying Ye of the Great Han Dynasty". Please add it to your favorites! In this story, Liu Ying awakens his memories from a past modern life at the age of five. He knows his "history". He remembers his father, Liu Bang, tried to depose him, and his mother, Lü Zhi, attempted to scare him to death. All these memories ignited his anger towards his cruel parents.

Adelaide had risked her life in exchange for playing the role of the Duchess, but she never had any intention of loving Klaus.

He was a Northern noble with an elegant facade, yet lacking in any true nobility. Dealing with such a Duke was always a source of embarrassment for Adelaide, who had lived her whole life as a noble lady.

They were merely using each other. So there was no way that this could be love, just something as insignificant as that.

“You mean something to me.”

The more she fell for him, the deeper she fell, everything became a mess. Like an uncontrollable fire.

“Do you have any value other than yourself?”

Klaus sharply rebuked her with his lips against her throat.

“I want everything from you, even your very breath. How is this not love?”

“You’re completely insane…”

In the worst possible way, you made me realize. The fact that all we have left between us is nothing but hatred. <<less

In the prosperous Jianglong City, women and children disappear every day, and strange clouds gather over the city.... more>>

A puzzle piece was sent to the police station, and the clues pointed to the recent frequent disappearances.

The police discovered that this was not an ordinary puzzle piece but human skin, and it came from the mu*derer of another case.

Is it the mu*derer? Or the victim? Who is the perpetrator?

Yu Jing, the leader of the Serious Crime Team Two, grew up among gangsters and made jokes on weekdays, but when it comes to serious matters, he immediately becomes serious and leads his men straight to the scene. He discovered that the clues in the case were very similar to an old case from fifteen years ago.

This case was inextricably linked to the major child abduction case fifteen years ago.

In order to solve the case faster, the city bureau called in a helping hand. They heard it was the forensic section chief from the city bureau next door, “Lu Yidao”*, who claims to be able to make the dead speak.

Accidentally, the two met at the crime scene, and both thought the other was a gangster. After a few rounds of fighting, both of them were impressed.

Even if the misunderstanding was resolved, the relationship was still forged.

The appearance of mysterious puzzle pieces actually formed a mysterious sun totem.

Although the two of them started fighting each other as soon as they met, in the face of the sudden case, they made a tacit agreement to temporarily reconcile and joined hands to face the sea of blood and avenge countless dead souls.

“The sun means rebirth and burns everything. I am willing to use my mortal body to withstand all kinds of difficulties and dangers. Even if it turns into embers, I will have no regrets.”

“Even if the night is endless, as long as faith never goes out, I will be the fireworks that light up the way forward.”
