struggle and success stories

In the 1960s, resources were extremely scarce. Thankfully, she had a personal space filled with supplies, ensuring she never lacked for food and clothing.

Having traveled to America in the year 1862, this was the beginning of a dream, the finest of times. What constitutes a true master of success? Having some notable descendants hardly counts for anything. To build an Oil Empire alongside Rockefeller To place Carnegie on the throne of the steel magnate To help Ford propel the industrialization of automobiles worldwide To lead Edison to monopolize the future of the electrical industry To be an Angel Investor for Morgan's capital Hear this, applause!

Imagine waking up as the villain in your sister's cheesy fantasy novel. Yeah, not ideal, especially when that villain is destined for hatred, and a grim end in some forgotten dungeon. That's Astrid's new reality. Her old life? Gone. Her new mission? Survive. And step one means throwing the original script out the window. But changing fate is way harder than it sounds. In a desperate move, Astrid makes the story's heroine, Lyra, her personal maid. Clever, right? Except teaching Lyra magic and treating her like, well, a person, backfires spectacularly. Lyra's gratitude twists into something intense, dark, and possessive. And she's not the only one. Astrid tries mending fences with her powerful aunt, only to find herself smothered by a love that feels dangerously close to madness. Even her ambitious half-sister, originally her rival, gets weirdly attached after Astrid shows her a bit of warmth and helps her gain power using some modern-world smarts. Astrid thought she was being clever, building alliances, creating intelligence networks, rewriting roles. She is changing the story, but it's warping everyone around her. Their loyalty? It's becoming obsession. Their affection? A dangerous fixation. Now, Astrid isn't just fighting the plot. She's drowning in a mess of her own making – caught between people who crave her, tangled in lies and affections twisted way out of shape. Everyone wants her, and sharing isn't remotely on their agenda.

#I asked you to survive in the wild, but you're raising a cat while doing livestreams?# #I thought you were here just to make up the numbers, but you're taking the entire internet by storm?# Song Qingyou transmigrated over a dozen times for the sake of survival before she finally returned to her original world. She wanted to laze around and do nothing, but she was forced to fend for herself in the wilderness due to her unfortunate circumstances. However, after finding a cat, her life turned out to be completely different from the rest. Other people started the game with straight knives and lighters... But she started with a cat. Other people exhausted themselves from climbing trees to harvest fruits... But she barbecued fish for her cat. Other people worked hard to build their own shelters... But she made a nest for her cat. *** Everyone waited for nature to teach Song Qingyou a lesson on how to behave like a normal person, but she was going through the survival game as if she was on vacation. She went viral on the internet. *** Song Qingyou thought her cat was just a little smarter than ordinary cats, but it turned into a human one day... Later, Song Qingyou was photographed going out with the CEO of Jiang Group. Song Qingyou clarified things during a livestream, "It's a coincidence. We're not dating each other." Before she could finish her sentence, Jiang Zhihan, who had transformed into a human again, walked past the camera. That, too, went viral. Song Qingyou quickly started to explain herself. "We're ordinary friends. We're not living together." Just as she finished saying that, Jiang Zhihan appeared again in a bathrobe and said, "We're out of shower gel. Don't forget to buy the same one you did last time." Song Qingyou subconsciously answered, "Okay." People who were watching the livestream fell silent. #You certainly aren't dating each other. You're practically married, aren't you?!"
