In junior high, despite his excellent grades, he was bullied for a year by his eccentric classmate Tara. On the eve of graduation, he killed her in retaliation, only to be threatened by Tara over the phone. To avoid further trouble, he lied and applied to the West City High School but secretly enrolled in the City's No. 1 High School, thinking he could start a new life. However, due to his short stature and sensitive personality, he once again fell to the bottom of the food chain: he was ganged up on by the rich and handsome Shi Qing, manipulated by the class beauty Molly, and publicly humiliated by the thug Lin Rui. In despair, he learned to ambush, sow discord, and use others to do his dirty work: first, he orchestrated Ricky's betrayal and disgrace, then forced Tara to publicly acknowledge him as her "boyfriend" to establish his authority; he retaliated against Molly, slapping her to end their ambiguous relationship. Each counterattack was accompanied by even more ruthless revenge, transforming him from a victim into a "little devil" in the eyes of others. When Tara transferred to his school, old grudges and new hatreds piled up, and the two confronted each other in the classroom; at the same time, his only light—the gentle senior Sophie—was also dragged into the vortex because of a photo incident. Faced with attacks from the school, parents, a romantic rival, and a former friend, Luke must choose between "continuing to become a villain" and "self-redemption": will he become a new generation of school tyrant, or will he hold onto his principles and use wisdom and courage to end this cycle of violence begetting violence? The story, told with dark humor, depicts a teenager struggling to survive amidst violence, rumors, and loneliness, ultimately understanding that true strength is not about defeating others, but about daring to confront one's past cowardice.

This story tells of Alex Qi, an ordinary young man who, at the lowest point in his life, is unexpectedly chosen by the vampire butler Mike Nicholas Farrar and forced to accept the inheritance, becoming the sole heir to the fourteenth vampire clan, the "Arbitrators." Dumped by his girlfriend for not being able to afford a house, Alex Qi drowns his sorrows in the streets of Los Angeles, where he encounters the mysterious vampire butler Mike. Tempted by Mike's promises of "walking in the sunlight and possessing a vast fortune," Alex Qi accepts the inheritance, becoming a new vampire named "Wanxiang Nicholas Qi," and inheriting Mike's Sunrise Investment Company in China. However, he soon discovers that the alluring multi-billion dollar inheritance is far away in Europe, unattainable due to the hostility of other vampire factions, and he finds himself in a perilous situation, hunted down. During his first training session, Alex Qi's spirit unexpectedly enters the divine realm of the progenitor Cain, learning the true origin and mission of his vampire clan, and obtaining the divine weapon "Blood Drinker." Upon returning to reality, he, along with his maid Linda (a Gangrol catwoman) and bodyguard Jack (a werewolf), repelled assassins from the Asameth family. This battle resulted in Linda and Jack being severely injured while protecting him, their forms permanently locked into cat and wolf forms by a soul-binding spell. To stop another blood mage, Peng Simmore, who was indiscriminately killing innocents in America to lure him out, Alex Qi engaged in a fierce battle with him. The incident attracted the attention of the U.S. National Special Affairs Division. The division, on the condition of guaranteeing the safety and livelihood of his family, reached an agreement with Alex Qi: he would enter the supernatural academy "Shengjing University" as an "unofficial" to protect Crystal, a young lady from a cultivation family who refused to cultivate. Thus, Alex Qi, accompanied by his pets Sylvia and Jet, stepped into the campus, beginning a new life where he adapted to campus life, cultivated to improve his strength, fulfilled his protective duties, and secretly dealt with threats from various supernatural forces. His journey, from the disappointment of an ordinary person, is gradually moving towards a broader world of supernatural abilities and a heavier mission.

My Classmate， My Crimson Eternity
Reads
Under a gray sky and a light drizzle, young Luvian walked hand-in-hand with her father down a desolate street. She appeared to be just an ordinary middle school student—quiet, aloof, and often lost in thought. However, her ageless face, inexhaustible youth, and cursed, immortal soul already revealed that she was no ordinary person. She was thirsty, but water couldn't quench her thirst; she was hungry, but food was hard to swallow; she was weary, but the earth refused to shelter her in her eternal slumber. She was an anomaly walking in the sunlight, a lonely figure trying to hide her true identity in the human world. Luvian had a human father, David, a warm home, and a best friend, Alice. Alice, innocent and cheerful, was her only connection to the "normal" world. Luvian tried hard to play the role of an ordinary schoolgirl: going to school, eating, going to KFC with Alice, and daydreaming in the library. Yet, she always found herself involuntarily "silent"—not daydreaming, but immersed in the lingering memories and sense of alienation from her long life. Whenever she easily outran everyone in PE class, whenever she faced the praise and envy of her classmates, what welled up inside her wasn't pride, but self-loathing as a "cheater"—her extraordinary ability was a curse she couldn't escape, an insurmountable chasm between her and humanity. Night is the time when another world awakens. She once transformed a dying woman into a vampire on a rainy night, granting her immortality and a bloodthirsty instinct, leaving only the admonition: "Cherish other people's lives as you would your own." Her entanglement with the vampire world is far from over. A vampire calling herself Lisa, with a lifespan of over 1,500 years, haunts her, constantly intruding into her life with her piercing laughter and unpredictable intentions. And a bizarre "vampire murder" in the village drags Luvian into an even deeper vortex. The threads of fate quietly intertwine. Alice's brother, Kyle, a dedicated vampire hunter, accidentally stumbles upon Luvian's ancient castle—once the legendary home of Count Dracula—while hunting vampires. Kyle is deeply suspicious of Luvian's identity, yet captivated by her calm and mysterious nature beyond her years. At the "Vampire Diner"—a sinister place truly open to vampires only at night—Luvian not only encounters Lisa and the young vampire Bourne she "picked up," but also meets the charming but equally vampire Sinmo. Here, she learns that the diner's owner is a powerful member of the Camarilla, and that Lisa, the diner, and the table called "The Feast" share a bloody past spanning millennia—she was once a sacrifice in a pagan ritual, reborn as a vampire after being drained of her blood. As the Camarilla's activities increase, the millennia-old balance between the Camarilla and the Camarilla is threatened. Kyle and his fellow hunters sense the impending crisis. Luvian, a girl who walks between sunlight and darkness, between humans and vampires, is forced to confront her past and true identity. The necklace she gives Alice, named "Blood Eye," hides the curse and power of a second-generation vampire; her seemingly adversarial relationship with Lisa conceals a far more complex and ancient past; her guilt and memories of her deceased human boyfriend are wounds she refuses to reopen. Luvian stands at a crossroads. On one side lies the warmth of humanity she cherishes: her father's love, Alice's friendship, and Kyle's growing protectiveness; on the other, her inseparable vampire nature and the turbulent conflicts of the vampire world. She longs to become a true "Luvian," a girl who ages, dies, and experiences ordinary happiness, but the shadows of the past and the current crisis surge forth like a tide. As the threat of the Camarilla looms close, as her human friends are in danger, and as hunters, the Camarilla, the Camarilla, and vampires like Sinmo with unclear motives all appear, Luvian must choose: to continue hiding and escaping, or to confront her cursed power and destiny, and to step into the lonely and eternal war that has long been prepared for her, in order to protect her loved ones and the balance of two worlds. This is a story about loneliness, identity, and choices. A vampire girl who longs to be human, under the sunshine of youth, burdened by a thousand years of shadow, searches for her own meaning of "existence."

Steel Rose, Black Thorns
Reads
Before she turned sixteen, Hannah Zhao was the sole heiress of the Zhao Group Corporation. Her father, Martin Zhao, was a self-made “steel magnate,” and her mother, Sophia Song, was a renowned businesswoman. The family of three lived in the most opulent estate in City C. She attended the best international school and was admitted early to the history department of A University at the age of sixteen, with a promising future ahead of her. On her sixteenth birthday, during the height of a lavish pink castle-themed party, her father was arrested by the police in front of everyone, charged with “embezzlement.” That night, her mother died in a mysterious car accident while rushing to the scene. Hannah Zhao, still a minor, was suddenly thrust from being the apple of everyone's eye into the role of an “orphan.” What was even more cruel was that she witnessed her childhood sweetheart, Jason Zhang, embracing her cousin Sierra Zhao and casually telling her, “I never loved you.” All the love, trust, and pride she had known were shattered, and she fainted in the pouring rain. Her mother's twin sister, Quentin Yue, a renowned lawyer in Chicago, rushed back to China and took her to the United States as her guardian. At the airport that day, Hannah Zhao looked back at her hometown, her eyes filled with a blood-red vow: one day, she would reclaim everything she had lost. After arriving in the United States, she abandoned her beloved history and switched to finance, enrolling in the ST Business School adjacent to Wall Street. She spent day and night poring over piles of annual reports and code, determined to understand how capital could be so ruthless. One rainy night, she was nearly harassed by a drunk man on the street but was rescued by Quentin Yue, a genius programmer from the same school—this young man, who had cashed out from a small game at the age of twenty but then stepped back at the peak of his career, became her most important ally thereafter. Quentin Yue, on the surface a math PhD and tech geek, was actually well-versed in capital markets. He discovered Hannah Zhao’s remarkable intuition for numbers and trends and invited her to test his self-developed big data financial model. The two rented an apartment as a studio, attending classes during the day and monitoring the markets at night. From shorting retail stocks to targeting oil futures, their first attempts yielded millions in profits. Meanwhile, Hannah Zhao leveraged her aunt's legal network to commission a credit investigation agency to uncover the truth in Singapore: the whistleblowing materials from her father's case were authored by her uncle Miles Zhao; her mother's car accident was a “accident” orchestrated by Miles Zhao by bribing a truck driver; and Jason Zhang was merely a pawn used to disrupt her emotions. As the evidence mounted, she remained inactive—she was waiting for an opportunity to take down all her enemies at once. Two years later, Hannah Zhao turned eighteen and formally inherited all the shares under her parents' names, becoming the invisible major shareholder of Zhao Group Corporation with over 51% of the shares. At this time, a steel crisis hit Singapore, and Miles Zhao, who was mismanaging the business, was desperate to push for the Zhao family's IPO to raise funds. Hannah Zhao instructed her legal team to “cooperate” with the IPO process, but at a critical moment, she revealed a secret offshore trust established by her mother before her death, freezing all shares and forcing Miles Zhao to publicly admit fraud during the roadshow. The stock price plummeted, brokers abandoned their positions, and the market value of Zhao Group Corporation evaporated by 70% overnight. She took advantage of the low prices to acquire shares in the secondary market, then returned to the board as a “strategic investor” and used forceful measures to remove Miles Zhao, expel Zhang's affiliated companies, and recall all of her parents' former associates. Miles Zhao attempted to fight back, but discovered he had already been abandoned by his partners—those “allies” were creditors who had been secretly bought off by Hannah Zhao using overseas funds.
