It wasn't that China didn't have mystery novels like Sherlock Holmes, but that the creation of mystery novels in China was relatively late and not as developed as in western countries. The development of mystery novels in China can be traced back to the 1950s and 1960s, but at that time, for various reasons, this kind of novel did not receive enough attention. Later, with the rapid development of China's economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the creation of mystery novels gradually received more attention and support. There might be some differences in terms of subject matter and content between Chinese mystery novels and Western mystery novels such as Sherlock Holmes. For example, Chinese detective novels usually focused more on the construction of the plot and the description of the characters rather than emphasizing mathematics and logical reasoning. In addition, due to the different cultural background and social environment, the creation of Chinese mystery novels also had some challenges. Although there were no detective novels like Sherlock Holmes in China, there was still a vast space for the development of detective novels in China. With the continuous development of China's economy and culture, it was believed that the creation of Chinese mystery novels would become more and more exciting.

Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Ysavel, an aspiring writer, wakes up one day inside the world of her own novel. She thought it's those typical transmigration story she have read. However, she was shock when she discovers that she's been cast as the villainess in her own story. "DON'T TELL ME I BECOME THE VILLAINESS OF MY OWN STORY?!" Shocked and dismayed, she realizes that the only way to return to the real world is to live out her role in the story. Initially, she accepts this fate, but things take an unexpected turn when the characters start deviating from the script. "I don't want another Queen. Youare the only one I want as my Queen, Csille." Prince Fraser whispered. The male lead, who was expected to be annoyed by her constant pestering, instead becomes affectionate and attached to her. "It's inevitable, Lady Lauretré. You will still be the Queen, so I don't see any harm in what I said. Besides, I doubt the King or even the Crown Prince would be willing to change their minds about your engagement." The female lead, who was supposed to separate the male lead from her, begins to play matchmaker between the male lead and the villainess. What should she do? She couldn't get back to the real world if she didn't finished the story as the villainess. But how can she finished it if the two leads are not following the script? Help!!! Still under revision but once done updates will be posted daily at 12pm ( GMT +8 ). Also, please check my other novel, Dimensions Apart. It’s a lighter novel compared to this one. Credits to the rightful owner of the picture I used for the cover.

Why am I holding on you

Why am I holding on you

Him - "You took away my first kiss, you have to be responsible for it" Her - "That was my first kiss too Senior. Am I asking you to be responsible?" Him - "Ask me... I am waiting" Her - "Shut up, get away otherwise I will call my brother" Him - "I am sure he will support his friend, atleast for this" Her - "You- BROTHER" Bro - "Yes my lovely sister" Her - "Brother this friend of yours is asking me to be responsible for his first kiss" Bro - "Serene I taught you since we were young that we should be responsible for our deeds" Her - "But that was just an accident, you told me too, that I shouldn't be bother with it!" Bro - "Well I didn't knew it was him" Him - "Love can you stop getting angry" Her - "Who is your love!!" Him - "Except you, no one was, no one is, no one will and no one is allowed to be." Her - "Ahhh... Don't talk to me." (Not a part of story but how the character is designed and how story it would be.) A love story between two college students Serene and Soham. Serene's childhood was messed up because of her struggled childhood with her brothers in orphanage. And Soham's life was too peaceful that it irritates him. There first encounter was not good but the last will be sweetest. There story doesn't have those lots of up and down in relation or life but it do have some spice. This story isn't like FL settings up an empire from scratch or anything related to business or revenge or creating her identity to show to the world (because she already have everything) but a cute love story with some love hate relation initially and then about persuading someone to accept him. This is more or less all about love. How a egoistic man fell in love with her who don't even give a damn about his presence even though they both are each others first kiss. ML hated her for snatching away his first kiss but in span of time, he was the most grateful person in the world for having that moment with her. But he wants her to be around him only... But she didn't even recognized him as a acquaintance in her life, leave, not even a human being relate to her in her life... poor him.... Initially it was love hate and later it was love in the air. Initial chapters will be little fast to show her and her siblings love for each other. Later it will be cute little love story. Hope you will like it. If you can than just try 10 to 15 chapters. Might you like it #I am writing another book too... please check out... OPPOSITES ATTRACT MY LOVE... #English is not my first language. And I can't afford to say it as my second one either, so don't be pissed by it. It is at least bearable. #Cover photo doesn't belong to me.
