Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

Tan Rou only learned that she wasn’t the Tan family’s daughter when she was seventeen years old. She went from being a rich young lady to living in the slums. The parents she adored belonged to someone else, and this series of knockdowns was hard for a seventeen-year-old girl to accept. She wailed like a child for the sake of proving this was all a lie. The vicious words she spouted had hurt her biological family but she didn’t notice. She thought the Tan family was her real family despite them seeing her as an eyesore, and was even naive enough to want to befriend the Tan family’s real daughter, Tan Jing. Alas, the latter drugged her drink and arrange for a thug to rape her. Tan Jing even brought their classmates along to catch them in the act so Tan Rou was now tainted for life. After being reborn, she looked down at the man she was stepping on. Tan Rou swore not to be a useless wretch in this life or be bullied to death. She would stomp on those who wronged her and make it up to her real family. They wouldn’t have had to die tragically on the streets in the past life had it not been for her. Tan Rou turned completely evil after crawling back out of Hell. Everyone claimed that the real young lady was educated and talented, while the fake young lady was arrogant and incompetent. Tan Rou scoffed upon hearing this. She held back her brother from trying to stand up for her. “We have all the time in the world. Let’s just wait and see.” Just as everyone was waiting for Tan Rou to make a fool of herself… A top-class perfumer, a top scholar, a world champion… The fake young lady’s multiple identities kept getting exposed one after another, bumping her up to number one on the trending search, shocking the world. Wait, where was the promised humiliation?

Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me

Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me

One sunny day, Shen Jingwei, a Z-list actor, received an opportunity to attend an open-call audition the very next day. It was for the role of an antagonist in a new BL C-Drama, "Dance Of The Dragons", which was adapted from a novel of the same title. He agreed to join the audition due to several factors, among which his manager's threat to jump off the 20th floor, his dire need for money, and also the fact that his rank in the film industry could not go any lower. One look at the panel of judges made him want to turn on his heel to leave, but it was all too late. Because who would expect the poor Z-List actor to meet his mortal enemy/ex-boyfriend, Yan Renzhong, the A-List Actor responsible for his decline long before he even learned how to fly? ------------------ "You and I... are playing a couple of lovers, who will go on to get married and have children with each other." Shen Jingwei could sense blood coming up his throat. What was the point of saying it out loud, again? "Yes," he forced himself to agree nonetheless. Yan Renzhong pinned him with a stare. "We have unresolved issues from the past. I hope you won't let them affect your and my performance in the drama. Act the professional you are supposed to be." "..." "And don't call me 'Emperor Yan' anymore." Yan Renzhong left after delivering one blow after another, not even waiting to see if Shen Jingwei succumbed to his injuries or not. What? Whattt? Whattttttttt?

Tan silencioso como un ratón

Tan silencioso como un ratón

Estoy siendo cazada. Bueno, no exactamente yo. Alguien quiere poner sus manos sobre el genio detrás de Farmacéuticos A.M.K. Solo que no saben que soy yo. He descubierto una forma de negar el olor de cualquiera, cambiaformas o humano. Pensarías que no sería para tanto... los desodorantes prometen lo mismo, pero mi producto no es como esos. Mi producto hace a sus usuarios invisibles para los cambiaformas. No, no así. Pero los cambiaformas necesitan el olor más que casi cualquier otra cosa para identificar y encontrar a una persona. Sin olor, no pueden rastrear a su presa, ni oler a un enemigo acercándose por detrás. Originalmente lo creé para que mi padre adoptivo y yo pudiéramos evitar a la comunidad de cambiaformas. Nadie debía saber sobre ello. Hasta que un pajarito dijo algo que no debía a la persona equivocada. Ahora los humanos me persiguen y los cambiaformas quieren que esté muerta. Pero está bien. Eso no fue lo único que se me ocurrió. Y si soy tan silenciosa como un ratón, nadie me verá venir hasta que sea demasiado tarde. Esta será una novela RH, la FMC no tendrá que elegir.

Well, 'Two Kinds' is a story full of emotion. The mother wants her daughter to be great, like those child prodigies she sees. So she makes the daughter take piano lessons. But the daughter hates it at first. She doesn't see the point. There's this big conflict. As the story progresses, we see how both characters change. The daughter realizes that her mother's actions were out of love, in a way. And the mother also realizes that she can't force her daughter to be something she's not. It's a very relatable story about family and self - discovery.
