- 2 A Poor Man's Two Thousand Years 穷鬼的上下两千年 She had experienced the Battle of Changping and witnessed the massacre of hundreds of thousands. She had once led Great Qin's iron cavalry in its struggle for supremacy against the Six States. She had seen the realm divided into three and the mountains and rivers shattered. She had also heard the soft, lingering music of the zither in Longzhong. During the golden age of Zhenguan, she once drank herself drunk on the present day. How radiant was that eternal female emperor in her youth? She had ri 61Votes1.2MRecs1.6MFans

“I want the heavens to never again block my sight, and the earth to never again bury my heart,” the Monkey King roared with indomitable pride. Tang Ming smiled faintly. “Sure, no problem. I'll make sure your wish comes true.” He turned his head and snapped his fingers. “Heavenly Dao No. 10086, arrange that for our guest right away.” Countless worlds converge at a single point, and prodigies from different planes gather together.

- 5 The Conscience of the Entertainment Industry 文娱的良心 Some say he is the conscience of the entertainment industry. To whoever said that: doesn't your conscience hurt? Many years later, people won't remember how Shi Yi left his plotlines unfinished, or killed off the female lead and the male lead... They'll remember only his kind heart. PS: This novel is toxic. The protagonist has a serious illness, and a strong desire for revenge. It's all for entertainment, so don't take it too seriously... 0Votes198.4kRecs237.3kFans

The Gourmet’s Supplier 美食供应商
“In the distant East, there is a strange little restaurant that has turned down Michelin three-star ratings several times. It’s expensive: a bowl of egg fried rice with soup costs RMB 288. Oh, I forgot, it also comes with a plate of pickles. Even so, plenty of people line up for a table. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations. You have to queue in person, and countless people fly in on private jets just to get in line. Of course, there’s no place to park your plane or your car. The service is
