Synopsis

Urban comeback #multiple heroines #wealthy family feuds #power struggles #return after lying low #stepmother joins the game

In one night, everything comes crashing down. His father falls into a coma, and the Tian family loses its entire fortune. Tian Lengyin, once the pride of the world, plummets from the clouds into the mire, becoming a stray dog everyone can bully.

In his darkest hour, several stunning women enter the picture, weaving a web of entangled emotions and interests. His stepmother, Jiang Zhiwu, is beautiful as a poisonous serpent. Using her role as his stepmother, she gently works her way into his heart, partly to scheme for power and partly to test him. Su Yan, the beautiful head of the Su family, is cool, elegant, and distinguished; her quiet protection is a subtle expression of her affection. Wen Zhixia, his attending physician, is gentle in her white coat. She visits him late at night and carefully looks after his father, a ray of warmth amid the darkness, with feelings simmering beneath the surface.

The unruly heiress Xia Zhi is headstrong and passionate, stirring up trouble for him wherever she goes. His old friend Luo Qing is a computer and surveillance expert, watching his back with perfect understanding and serving as his most reliable ally. There are also intelligence consultant Yu Wantang and gang boss Jiang Ye. Whether they outsmart their opponents or stand shoulder to shoulder with him, each has her own agenda, yet all are captivated by him.

Tian Lengyin gives a low, cold laugh, fury and desire mingling in his eyes. “Want to play? I’ll play with you until there’s no way back!” This time, he will take back everything and seize control of the whole game!

Please Recommend Engrossing Tomato Novels Without Stupid Plotting

Villain, urban, or fantasy novels are all fine 😊 I'm a seasoned reader of ten years, so please don't recommend beginner-level novels; I can't get into them. I'm older now and hope to read something with a well-reasoned, tightly plotted story. I don't mind power fantasies, but I don't want everyone else to act stupid just to make the protagonist look smart.
