Lydia, who grew up with her grandmother in a remote village, was finally taken back to the wealthy mansion. Only then did she realize that this was the result of her sickly grandmother kneeling down and begging her mother, who had long become a wealthy lady. However, her mother warned her sternly in private, "You can never call me mom! You can only call me auntie! Remember that?" The moment she entered the house, her mother's son and daughter, who were born in a wealthy family, took turns picking on her and humiliating her. What greeted her was always her mother's mocking words, "They are my babies, and you are just my niece. We eat and drink well, so what if you give in to them?" She knew that her mother might do something crazy to hide her secret. Good! Nobody can be relied on! I'll rely on myself! After surviving university, the female protagonist packed her luggage and exclaimed, "What rich family? I don't care anymore!" The female protagonist ran away from home and entered the entertainment industry! With her superb acting skills, an experienced director offered her an olive branch. Thousands of fans went crazy for her. She was invited to a charity dinner by the wealthiest man on the Fortune List. Someone even bought a big screen at Times Square to celebrate her birthday. While everyone was crazy about her, a mysterious man bought all the headlines and announced, "Thank you for liking my fiancée! But, I'm the one who loves her the most!"

The dust of a small Texas town settled around Tessica Raleigh, a world away from the familiar outskirts of Dodge City, Kansas. She didn't expect much from this "Podunk" place, certainly not excitement. Her life revolved around the rhythm of the seasons, the annual harvest of wheat and corn that her family meticulously managed. Her true sanctuary wasn't a quiet room or a bustling city street; it was the cab of a combine or a tractor, the steady hum of the engine a comforting presence as she plowed and harvested the crops. Romance was a distant, practically nonexistent, concept in her demanding schedule. Her parents, meanwhile, basked in their perceived wealth from the successful harvests, seemingly oblivious to anything beyond their financial comfort. On the Triple R Ranch, Logan Ray was living a different, yet equally focused, life. His days were steeped in the traditions of the ranch, a legacy passed down by his dad and uncles. His sophomore year had been smooth sailing, and he felt no anxieties about stepping into junior year. The only real pressure came from his friends, who relentlessly teased him about getting a girlfriend. Logan, however, had his priorities set on his studies and the demanding work of the ranch. He found far more interest in the intricacies of cattle and crops than in high school dating. This focus, however, sometimes made him a target for Kale Edwards, Sawyer Edwards' oldest son, whose animosity often manifested in physical blows.

“Clear!” The word hit the air like thunder. The room snapped with light as the defibrillator pads slammed against my chest. My body jerked once—hard—then fell back against the cold hospital bed. A sharp beep spiked, then flattened again. Somewhere beyond the white glare and noise, I heard her. “Ethan!” Clara’s voice cut through the static, raw and terrified. The sound of it was enough to drag me halfway back to life. I tried to move, to reach for her hand, but my arm wouldn’t listen. “Mrs. Vale, you need to leave.” The doctor’s tone was steady but firm. “No—please, I can’t—” Then her voice broke. A nurse’s shoes squeaked against the floor as they pulled her away. I caught a glimpse of her through my half-closed eyes — her hair messy, her face streaked with tears, her hands reaching for me until the door swallowed her. The air smelled like antiseptic and burnt plastic. I could hear the machines shouting numbers, the doctors muttering commands I couldn’t process. And in the middle of it all, her last words echoed in my head. Words she had whispered only minutes before the world went white. “Ethan, I’m pregnant.” Pregnant. The syllables fell through me like stones. The kind of secret that should have been the start of everything — not the end. My chest burned. The room blurred. Somewhere in the haze, I tried to form the words, I love you. Maybe they came out. Maybe they didn’t. The heart monitor screamed again. Hands pressed against my ribs. The rhythm of life — forced, mechanical, desperate. And still, all I could think of was Clara’s face. The way she smiled when she was trying not to cry. The way she looked at me the day we stood in front of that register, signing our names into forever. If this was the finish line, I wasn’t ready to cross it. Not yet. Not when she had just told me there was more of us out there — growing, waiting. My breath stuttered once. The light dimmed around the edges. And as everything began to fade, I swore I heard her voice again, just outside the door. Soft. Breaking. “Don’t you dare leave me, Ethan Vale. The beeping flattened into one long, steady note. And then — nothing. I thought I had died. But, then I woke up... I wasn't me anymore...?

The whole internet is shipping me with my ex-boyfriend National film emperor, Chi Yu, lived up to his name, like a gentle breeze or bright moon. One day, rumors spread that he had a girlfriend whom he pampered for years. Media reporters scrambled to interview him, but his indifferent face in front of the camera said: Just rumors. Entertainment industry big shot, Gu Yuan, is rich, beautiful, well-connected, and has a boyfriend who loves and spoils her, Chi Yu. The outside world doesn't know that Gu Yuan had once spent a fortune to support Chi Yu's debut, making him quickly rise to fame, only for him to now turn around and dump her, truly heartless. - Not long after, Gu Yuan healed herself, quickly moving on from the emotional shadow, becoming indifferent and cold-hearted, never considering any man again. Chi Yu stood by the seaside, still like a gentle breeze or bright moon, but there was a persistent emotion in his eyes: "What will it take for you to forgive me?" Gu Yuan responded with a smile, pointing at the tumultuous sea: "Jump in. If you die, I'll forgive you, after all, the dead deserve respect." Chi Yu: "..." - That day, a video went viral all over the internet—a clip inadvertently captured Gu Yuan showing up on an outdoor reality show for a few seconds, where she was lying on a tree asleep, while Chi Yu gazed up at her affectionately. Initially, the whole internet was calm: Not shipping! Absolutely not shipping! Eventually, the whole internet exploded: Please, someone hold my head down and let me ship fervently!
