Becoming a Big Shot by Collecting Rent

A Thousand-Year Empire, Drunk in the Jianghu

How could I meet you, at the moment when I was most beautiful? For this, I prayed before the Buddha for five hundred years, begging it to let us share a destined bond. So the Buddha turned me into a tree, growing beside the path you must take. In the sunlight, I carefully covered myself in blossoms, each one the hope I carried from a past life! When you come near, please listen closely: the trembling leaves are the passion with which I’ve waited! But when at last you pass by without a glance, wh

My Daily Reading List

A broad range of tastes

A Treasure Trove of Joy

Back when I wanted to read novels, I had to rely on print books and read whatever I could find. Whether they were gems or duds, I enjoyed them all. But once I could read online on my phone, the number of books available kept growing. The more readers read, the higher their standards and the pickier their tastes become. Many now stick to just a few genres, or even a single one. Take me, for example: these days, I mostly read lighthearted books that make me laugh without even trying. I made this l

Orange Marmalade

People make mistakes, and only then can they change. Only when troubled in heart and weighed down in thought can they achieve something; only when it shows in their faces and comes out in their voices can others understand. If a state has no principled ministers within and no hostile powers abroad to threaten it, it will surely perish. Thus we know that hardship gives life, while ease brings death.

Some Pretty Good Books

Books I personally think are good

Charming Bastards

The rustling parasol leaves carry the chill of autumn; the river breeze stirs a traveler's heart.

City Life, Reborn, and Entertainment

My tastes are pretty varied, and I've dabbled in lots of genres. The main thing is that I enjoy reading them. I mostly read urban fiction, especially stories about being reborn, business, and the entertainment industry.

Second Chances and City Life

The streets teem with traffic, flowing endlessly. Hidden talents lie in wait, and the world is full of upheaval. The city is the world we know best. It is home to extraordinary geniuses, veterans who have achieved their goals and retired, winners who can charm a crowd, and ordinary people who never amount to much. No one is willing to settle for a mediocre life, though most protagonists start out as ordinary people. A second chance at life: it's what most people dream of, but only a few achieve.

A Bookworm’s Personal List, Updated from Time to Time

I went back through my old reading lists. Some books have vanished, others got dropped, and there really aren't many that are still going strong 😜. After cutting and pruning, the list was nearly empty, so here we go again. These are all books I've been following, and I'll stick by them through gritted teeth 😚 Lately, I don't know why, but the review sections have been so hostile. I just wanted to browse reviews and find something to read, but ended up with nothing. If a book is truly awful and i
