Latest Second Chance Novel

In her previous life, Bai Ying gave everything she had to the sect—her heart, her soul, her loyalty. But all she got in return was disdain.

Her Master despised her, her senior brothers abandoned her, and in the end, they even cut open her Golden Core for the sake of a newly arrived junior sister.

She died with her eyes open, full of resentment.

In this life, she cut off all her emotions.

She severed all ties with everyone.

But why were those who once looked down on her now kneeling one by one before her, begging for forgiveness?

Bai Ying stared coldly at them.

A heart that has died—how could it come back to life?

She would never forgive them.

Married into the Marquis of Ningyuan’s household for over ten years, Shen Tangning believed she had done nothing wrong managing the household, honoring her in-laws, fulfilling every duty expected of her.

It wasn’t until the cold and distant heir of the family began an illicit affair with her now-sister-in-law (her once illegitimate younger sister), and the two joined forces to drive her out, that Shen Tangning realized just how horribly wrong she had been.

Given a second chance, she returns to the very day her illegitimate sister swapped marriage partners with her. Shen Tangning sneers coldly and decides to roll with the mistake—this time, she marries the useless, good-for-nothing second son of the family instead.

On their wedding night, the so-called wastrel husband lifts her veil, takes one look at her, and is so shocked he stumbles and falls to his knees.

Tears stream down Shen Tangning’s face, her eyes red.

“I was meant to be the heir’s wife. Marrying you means my life is over.”

Chi Yan feels a sudden tremble in his heart and fumbles around, utterly at a loss.

…And from then on—

He stopped gambling and idling and devoted himself entirely to his wife.

Rainstorms, extreme cold, earthquakes, mutated plants and animals, extreme heat, acid rain, blizzards… various natural disasters come one after another, the established order collapses, survival supplies decrease, and animals and plants mutate. Everywhere is dangerous, and all of humanity faces a huge survival challenge.

With her previous life’s psionic ability, she is reborn one month before the apocalypse, and using the antiques stored in her space, she begins to frantically hoard supplies.

She wants to use these supplies to survive the natural disasters.

"What should I do if I go on a blind date with the man I've already broken up with? Urgent, waiting online."

The day Lin Tingyue broke up, she ran abroad to win back her boyfriend, hiding it from her parents. As a result of drinking too much, she got involved with an excessively handsome stranger.

Afterward, she left three thousand yuan as compensation and fled, not even daring to ask for his name.

Six months later, at a family blind date banquet, they met again.

The man was dressed in a suit, his eyes dark.

Coincidentally, he was the very person Lin Tingyue had paid three thousand yuan to as "compensation" that night.

Looking at the familiar face before her, Lin Tingyue forced herself to remain calm and said, "I'm not here for a blind date; I already have someone I like."

The man spoke slowly, "What a coincidence, me too."

-

Everyone in the capital knows that Chi Zhuo, the head of the Chi family, is cold and heartless, and hates being manipulated the most.

Yet, someone saw him grab a girl's wrist in a corner of the banquet hall, his voice carrying a hint of anger.

"Lin Tingyue, you think three thousand yuan is enough to send me away?"

"What kind of person do you think I am, Chi Zhuo?"

Lin Tingyue, being pestered incessantly, finally lost her temper:

"Then what do you want?"

His voice was low and hoarse, but his gaze was burning:

"Marry me, or I'll pursue you. Choose one."

#Help, if I meet a man like this, do I even have a choice?#

#You said it was a fake marriage, why are you taking it seriously?#

Sheng Xiao returned to Jiangcheng, and the first place he went was the bookstore next to his old high school.

As the glass door opened and the wind chime gently swayed, Jiang He, standing behind the counter, looked up.

Their eyes met, and the air froze.

It had been five years, and Jiang He hadn't expected to meet him again here.

Without a word exchanged between them, for the whole afternoon, Jiang He only heard the occasional sound of pages turning.

When Sheng Xiao left, he left her a piece of stationery.

Jiang He glanced at it and reminded him, "Take your things and leave. I don't accept things from ex-boyfriends."

Sheng Xiao looked at her deeply.

After all these years, she hadn't changed.

He tapped the stationery with his fingertips, his voice low:

"Your thing is still with me. It's been five years, it's time to return it."

Writer's note: I will post updates on my Weibo: @zzzleep

The producer vs. the top movie queen.

1.

One month before the new drama was set to start filming, the investor parachuted in a new young actress to replace Liang Kongxiang as the female lead.

The entire internet was waiting to watch the drama of the highly popular movie queen Liang Kongxiang being discarded. Under pressure from all sides, Liang Kongxiang drove to Jiang Jiao Ming's company.

At her wit's end, she had no choice but to beg her ex-boyfriend.

As expected, he refused her coldly and mercilessly.

“I really don’t like involving old lovers in work.”

The man’s cold gaze swept over her, but Liang Kongxiang was lost in memories of their past affection.

Liang Kongxiang knew he hated her.

2.

Without Jiang Jiao Ming’s backing, everyone in the entertainment industry knew Liang Kongxiang was nothing.

The media reported on the matter, and her agent was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

An old lover, an ex-lover with lingering ties. Yet Liang Kongxiang savored the phrase.

She wearily turned off social media on all platforms, put on her sunglasses, and ignored the outside world.

3.

Months later, on the night of the Golden Magnolia Awards ceremony, the crowd saw not Liang Kongxiang, who had fallen into despair after losing her role.

Instead, they saw Liang Kongxiang, who had risen rapidly and was handling everything with ease.

She walked slowly in her luxurious evening gown towards a dimly lit corner of the stage. Her peripheral vision caught sight of a man looking down in silence.

“I took the steps you offered,” he tightly gripped her wrist and pulled her into the dark embrace.

“Can we go back?” Tears fell with his words.

Liang Kongxiang wanted to ask him.

After so many years, why was he still crying for his old lover?

But she already knew the answer in her heart.

—————Coming Soon—————

Next, I will open “The Formula for Winning Mahjong,” a female chasing male story. A passionate and direct puppy vs. a cold and fatherly figure. She encounters her crush while playing mahjong and ends up in the hospital, and then her absurd actions actually lead to a relationship, haha.

Synopsis below:

1.

Since childhood, Ai Xijia has always taken detours when encountering difficulties. The world treats her cruelly, but she just sticks out her tongue. She acts on impulse with only three minutes of passion, regardless of the consequences—for example, falling in love with an intern doctor when she’s sick.

The doctor is perfect in every way: broad shoulders, long legs, and so handsome that women get their periods just looking at him. The only drawback is that he is not her husband.

The night she returned from the hospital, Ai Xijia immediately logged into her alternate Weibo account and posted ten tweets asking heaven and earth why the intern doctor in the x hospital’s x department wasn’t her husband.

She logged off immediately after posting and had long forgotten about it. Unexpectedly, a month later, when she logged back into her alternate Weibo account, there were five new notifications. Three were comments, and two were private messages.

“Which group are you in? I’ll give you some advice.”

“Is it the handsome guy from group x?”

“I know who it is.”

Regardless of anything else, the first thing Ai Xijia did when she saw a living person appear in the comments section was to delete all her frantic posts from her alternate Weibo account that night.

So embarrassing. It’s too embarrassing. The explicit fanfiction about the handsome doctor has never made her feel so ashamed.

2.

After tearfully deleting her treasured posts, Ai Xijia wiped her tears and began her pursuit of her husband.

“It’s raining heavily here, what about you…”

“The weather forecast doesn’t mention rain.”

“…”

“I think I caught a cold, please comfort me.jpg.”

“Is your poop loose?”

“…”

“I’m staying in a hotel alone, I’m so scared of ghosts.”

[Basic Principles of Marxism]

“…”

3.

Ai Xijia used all her strength and methods to pursue him online and offline for three months. This wooden doctor remained unmoved. She then searched the internet for a compilation of love confessions and tearfully prepared to give herself and him one last chance.

“I retreat, and this retreat is for a lifetime.”

“This maiden has no fate with the young master. I only wish to meet in the next life, to have pleasant conversations without emotional attachment.”

Just as she was about to pack everything up and move on to the next chapter of her life, a tall figure stood at her doorstep. Luan Xu’s gaze went past Ai Xijia, looking at the man who had just seen her home.

“Ai Xijia.”

Ai Xijia blinked, gazing at Luan Xu, who stood very straight in the night but had a cold expression.

“You are truly not well-behaved.”

The next second, Luan Xu took her hand and led her into the house. Before she could even change her shoes, he pressed her against the door and kissed her until she couldn’t breathe.

“Make him leave.”

One-sentence synopsis: A good horse only picks the回头草 (literally, grass that the horse turns back to eat; metaphorically, getting back with an ex).

Theme: Go with the flow.

When Meng Yutong was young, she lost her mother and was raised by her grandmother, who instilled in her a cautious and accommodating personality. After marrying into the Ji family, simply because her husband praised her as "gentle and virtuous," she poured all her energy into serving her mother-in-law and managing the household. She even pretended not to know about her husband's close childhood friend, going to extreme lengths to live up to that casual compliment. She thought that by being patient and making sacrifices, she would achieve a happy ending, but in the end, she met a tragic fate. On what she thought was her deathbed, her husband was still in the palace, treating his childhood friend. Reflecting on her life, Meng Yutong suddenly felt exhausted, wondering what she had been striving for with all her might.

The next time she opened her eyes, Meng Yutong was reborn to the year she was supposed to get engaged. She decided to live a different life.

She broke off the engagement with the Ji family and opened a medical clinic.

Ji Yun comes from a family of doctors that has been prominent for a hundred years. His demeanor was like a solitary crane in the clouds, detached and refined. From a young age, he was disciplined, never revealing his emotions, and disliked things that were beyond his control. Due to an old debt to the Meng family, he was engaged to Meng Yutong, who came from a merchant family. Meng Yutong had an ordinary background and was quiet and introverted, but her calm and gentle nature made her a good candidate to be a matriarch.

One day, when the family discussed his marriage, there seemed to be a plan to choose someone else. Ji Yun said, "The original engagement was fine. Why bother with all the trouble?" Unexpectedly, his mother suddenly said sarcastically, "She is good, but it seems like our Ji family is taking advantage." His father sighed, rarely saying, "Marriage is not something that can be forced." Even his younger brother, who had always admired him, shook his head, "Brother, wake up. She already returned the engagement notice." Ji Yun's brow twitched; something felt off.

The next book he is promoting and seeking collection for is: "My Wife is Eloquent." When Ming Shan came of age, a "Flower Blooming Mouth" system was inexplicably bound to her mind. She had to praise ten people daily, or misfortune would befall her, and everything would go wrong. To protect herself, Ming Shan force herself to become a praise-generating machine, speaking to each person according to their nature and pleasing everyone in the capital. Unexpectedly, at a palace banquet, she accidentally fell into the water, and in her panic, pulled Xie Heng, the cold-faced King of Hell who held immense power, into the water with her!

In front of everyone, their clothes were soaked. Xie Heng, who managed the prisons and had a heart as hard as iron, detested sycophants the most. With an imperial decree, they were betrothed. He believed this woman was manipulative and that her actions were merely to curry favor with power. After marriage, he watched coldly as she used all her tricks:

"My lord's majesty is heaven-sent, making one forget to breathe and forget the world!" Xie Heng: Heh, superficial.

"My lord's calligraphy is like iron and silver, powerful and penetrating, with a majestic aura!" Xie Heng: Uncultured.

"My lord's dining posture is also so elegant and noble, it is truly admirable." Xie Heng: ...Boring.

He patiently waited for her greed to be exposed, but instead, she praised the maid for her dexterity, the servant for his cleverness, and even the old man next door for his heroic-looking beard! Xie Heng finally felt something was wrong: Did she have some kind of mental issue?

It wasn't until a Duke's mansion banquet that he saw her smiling charmingly at the young master, her words skillfully uttered, making him inwardly tremble: "Young Master is so elegant; this jade crown complements you perfectly, surpassing all in the capital..."

—The wording was identical to how she had praised his jade hairpin three days earlier! Xie Heng's jade chopsticks in his hand snapped. That night, he trapped her between the brocade curtains, his eyes churning with a jealousy and possessiveness he himself had not realized, "Ming Shan, are you this 'deeply affectionate' with everyone? How much sincerity do you have for me?"

Ming Shan (the system's alarm blared wildly in her mind): !!! Sincerity! One hundred percent! You are peerlessly handsome, powerfully charismatic, wise, and mighty... (urgently accessed all praise phrases)

Xie Heng was exasperated and leaned down, sealing her lips, "...Be quiet."

One-sentence summary: How did everyone get reborn?!

Concept: Positive, self-reliant, and self-strengthening.

Two years after their divorce, Qiao Shu and Yu Zexu meet again at a press conference, their strained relationship evident under the flashing lights.

When a reporter asks if the divorce rumors are true and if it will affect the cooperation between the Qiao and Yu families, Qiao Shu replies, "It's fake." She then turns to Yu Zexu with a bright smile and asks, "Husband, what do you think?"

Yu Zexu leans back, his gaze cold, and replies dismissively, "What else? Who would call their ex-husband 'husband'?"

Initially, Yu Zexu flatly warns Qiao Shu to give up her attempts, stating they were merely using each other. He emphasizes that their public pretense was out of necessity, and he wanted nothing to do with her in private, believing distance was best for everyone.

Later, he grits his teeth and demands to know who the blonde, blue-eyed man by her side is.

Eventually, he forcefully silences her angry accusations by kissing her.

Late at night, Qiao Shu, pinned by Yu Zexu, can't take it anymore and asks, "Yu Zexu, is this how you maintain distance from your ex-wife?"

Yu Zexu holds her hands and retorts, "Isn't zero distance no distance?"

Friends warn Yu Zexu that this might be another deception, but he knows better; he wouldn't fall into the same trap twice.

They were just using each other, and would part ways once things were settled.

Late at night, Qiao Shu sits on the floor. The usually meticulously dressed woman now has slightly reddened eyes from crying, and she looks at him tenderly, "Husband?"

He wipes her tears and puts on her slippers, saying, "I'm here."

Even though he knew she was only calling him 'husband' when she needed something and 'Yu Zexu' when she didn't, he still fell for her.

Yu Zexu realized then that some traps, he was willing to fall into again.

---

Next up: "Burning Heat"

Jiang Ruan and Chen Zexu have been married for three years.

Like many wealthy families with arranged marriages, they didn't know each other before marriage and had no feelings for each other. However, their marriage was maintained with mutual respect for the sake of their families' interests.

Chen Zexu was the perfect husband candidate: tall, handsome, well-accomplished, and inwardly and outwardly refined. Though somewhat indifferent, he was respectful and considerate to others.

The only unusual thing was that they never shared a bed, no matter how passionate things got, he would calmly detach himself, return to his own room, and bid her goodnight.

Under normal circumstances, they would have continued like this forever.

Until Jiang Ruan accidentally pushed open a hidden door in his bedroom, revealing walls covered in her photos, from her student days to the present. On his desk lay an open notebook filled with dense writing:

Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan, Ruan Ruan Ruan Ruan Ruan, Wife, Wife, Wife, Wife, Wife, So fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, want to kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss...

【Calm and Sensible Female Barista VS Arrogant and Sharp-Tongued Psychologist】

The first time Su Fan saw Lin Xia, she was like a porcelain doll, wearing a beautiful dress and timidly hiding behind an adult. "Brother, hello."

The second time Su Fan saw Lin Xia was at the funeral of the Lin family's parents. Grandpa introduced the grieving girl to him. "Brother Su Fan—"

Due to a car accident, Lin Xia, the beloved daughter of the Lin family, became an orphan overnight. If it weren't for Grandpa Su's care, her life would have been ruined by those relatives and friends. But why did she feel that Brother Su family disliked her—

"Lin Xia, if you dare to give me love letters for those infatuated fans again, don't blame me for not tutoring you."

"Lin Xia, are you an idiot? Don't you look at cars when crossing the road?"

Although Su Fan always seemed very fierce to her, only she knew that this man also had a soft side.

She liked Su Fan; anyone with eyes could see it, except for him.

If it weren't for Grandpa Su, perhaps she would never have thought of walking into the hall with the man she adored in a wedding dress.

Su Fan never expected that a vacation trip would lead him to run into his ex-wife.

Seeing Lin Xia again this time, she seemed a bit different.

She was extremely unconfident before, but now she looks like...

Redemption/Wife-chasing crematorium/Prodigal son turns back.

Xu Jialan is a typical young master from an influential family, unrestrained and decadent, never taking feelings seriously.

To deal with his family's pressure to marry, Xu Jialan is forced to hide in the remote and desolate Dai County.

Chen Yaoan is completely different from Xu Jialan; she is quiet and aloof, never seeking trouble.

One night when the power goes out, he corners her.

He slowly leans closer to her ear, his tone condescending, and playfully asks, "How about being my girlfriend?"

Chen Yaoan's ears turn red, but her mind is clearer than ever.

She warns herself that this kind of man is untouchable!

And indeed, it turns out to be true.

Talking casually with his friends, one asks, "What do you like about her?"

He replies, "She's just pretty."

*

Who would have thought that not long after, Xu Jialan would eagerly chase from Jingbei all the way to Dai County, just to ask her:

"Do you like me?"

Chen Yaoan remains indifferent and distant, "No."

Xu Jialan's eyes instantly redden, and he corners her, firmly grabbing her shoulders.

His Adam's apple bobs, his voice trembling slightly, "Are you going to abandon me too?"

Finally, he cups her face, lowering his gaze, "I was wrong."

Xu Jialan never imagined in his life that he would fall for Chen Yaoan, and fall so completely.

Marriage of convenience, then love.

Free and independent VS Tycoon of a conglomerate.

Qiu Yan is suffocating under her family's pressure to marry. Di Zheng is her fifth blind date.

She takes a sip of coffee with a look of impatience and says, "I have marriage anxiety syndrome."

Di Zheng:?

"What is marriage anxiety syndrome?"

"Marriage anxiety syndrome means anxiety and irritability after marriage, and in severe cases, may lead to violent tendencies towards a partner."

Di Zheng ponders for a moment, then says slowly, "One million."

Qiu Yan: "Huh?"

Di Zheng: "Plus a house worth one million."

Qiu Yan: "Ah?"

Di Zheng: "And another million."

Qiu Yan: "I think my marriage anxiety syndrome has gotten better."

-

The contract marriage with Di Zheng is purely a financial transaction.

In front of others, they are a loving couple; behind closed doors, they do not interfere with each other.

Di Zheng is consistently aloof, and she is consistently perfunctory.

Until the contract expires, Qiu Yan cannot find her copy, but turns to see it in Di Zheng's hand.

"What are you doing with my contract?" she reaches to snatch it.

Di Zheng dodges her, locking her hands behind her back, "I can give it to you, but the marriage continues."

Didn't we agree it was only for six months?

Continue what continue!

I was a tool to highlight his deep affection for his childhood sweetheart.

Ultimately, I ended up with a tragic fate of a broken family and losing my life along with my unborn child.

After rebirth, I proactively suggested divorce. He, who had long been fed up with me, tore the divorce agreement into pieces.
