This is a spy's war, a story about how a group of ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things.

The Fragrance of the City 香色倾城
We eat and drink to live, and to live well, we must first eat and drink well. Put more elegantly, that means satisfying every aspect: appearance, aroma, taste, texture, meaning, and nourishment. But though we eat and drink to live, we shouldn't live just to eat and drink. Fun and pleasure matter, too. Even the sages said, “Food and sex are human nature.” In plain language, that means that after enjoying good food and drink, we shouldn't forget to find a pretty girl to keep us company. That way,

Ghost Stock 鬼股
The emerald sea and azure sky lie beneath a deep night, Why ask if the moon waxes or wanes, if fortunes rise or fall? A clear, sharp mirror of frost holds a pure reflection, A bright, polished ice vessel washes a heart clean. Among the flowers, tears fall, yet I raise my cup; Beneath the moon, an oriole sings, and I set my zither aside. In the shade of the parasol tree, I sigh for the noble one, His graceful bearing leaves me moved beyond words. What sort of person is he? Though he possesses no

For When You’re in a Reading Slump: Updated Whenever I Find a Gem
I favor urban, historical, slice-of-life, and fantasy novels. 👉 Classics, completed gems, and great web novels are shared in the comments. 👉 I don't update the list often. It can only hold 50 books from this site, so when I add new ones, completed gems may be moved to the comments. 👉 I like sharing works with sound values and solid logic. I hope someone can recommend some older books. The new releases are hard to stomach.
