The Ceo‘s Caged Melody

Li Buyan
Black-bellied, sharp-tongued business tyrant vs. adorably cunning, deceptively soft beauty 【Let the evil meet their fate, and if fate doesn't take its course, I'll do it for you】 It was rumored in C City that the merchant Gu Jiangnian was a master of strategy and profit, where every move was made for gain. But everyone at Junhua knew, Director Gu sought not only profit but also people. To what extent? Want money, send money; want someone, send someone; you fight, I guard the door; you brawl, I support you. Before marriage, she was the least favored miss of the Jiang family, battling alone against her cruel stepmother and adulterous father, with her daily work: brawl! Brawl! And brawl some more! After marriage, she was the beloved little ancestor of the Gu Mansion, pampered and protected in the palm of the master's hand, too precious to let others bully, with her daily work: cling to powerful coattails! Cling! And cling some more! 【Post-marriage daily life one】 One day, Mrs. Gu was ill and had lost her appetite. Mr. Gu canceled his appointments to return home, sat in front of her, and coldly stared, his words icy: “Didn’t you say I was a feast for the eyes? Eat!” 【Post-marriage daily life two】 Mrs. Gu found herself in a tight spot, attacked by the public, when a reporter relentlessly pursued Gu Jiangnian asking, “As Junhua’s director and C City’s wealthiest Mr. Gu, what is your opinion on Mrs. Gu's attempt to run over her own biological father?” The man paused abruptly, his face cold as he slowly and deliberately said, “She's spoiled by me. What’s it to you?” Without waiting for the reporter to answer, he arrogantly continued, “Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. My woman, Gu Jiangnian’s woman, is not subject to your criticism.”

The Last Marine

WHEN THE WORLD ENDED, HE WAS ALREADY DEAD. Marine Sergeant Quinn Carter wakes up on a highway littered with the wreckage of a military convoy—burned-out husks of vehicles, torn bodies, and a silence so heavy it chokes him. The last thing he remembers is kissing his wife, Anna, goodbye before deployment. Now, the world is a graveyard, and the air reeks of blood and rot. But he’s not alone. The things that move in the ruins aren’t the shambling dead of old horror stories. They’re fast. Smart. They mimic human voices to lure survivors out. When Quinn hears a child’s desperate cry for help, he almost falls for it—until he sees their milky-white eyes and the way they move like a pack. THE FIRST BITE ISN’T THE END. IT’S JUST THE BEGINNING. Fighting his way through the wreckage, Quinn finds a lone survivor—Sarah Monroe, a fellow Marine with a tire iron and a haunted past. She tells him the truth: the world didn’t end with bombs or a virus. It ended with Systemic Immune Failure (SIF)—a plague that didn’t just kill people. It turned them into something worse. Now, the infected hunt in packs, using eerie mimicry to draw out the last survivors. And they’re getting smarter. ESCAPE ISN’T AN OPTION. IT’S A LIE. Trapped in a decaying city with the horde closing in, Quinn and Sarah must navigate a landscape of betrayal and desperation. The military remnants—led by a shadowy figure named Vance—aren’t here to save anyone. They’re rounding up survivors for reasons Quinn can’t fathom. And every step towards home—towards Anna—brings him closer to a truth more horrifying than the infected. BECAUSE THE REAL MONSTERS AREN’T THE ONES WITH THE MILKY EYES. With time running out and the horde learning from every attack, Quinn must decide: Does he fight for a world already lost? Or does he run—straight into the heart of the nightmare—to find the woman he loves? A PULSE-POUNDING, UNFLINCHING THRILLER THAT REINVENTS THE APOCALYPSE—WHERE THE REAL TERROR ISN’T THE INFECTED… IT’S WHAT THEY LEAVE BEHIND. PERFECT FOR FANS OF THE LAST OF US, BIRD BOX, AND THE ROAD. WILL YOU SURVIVE THE FIRST NIGHT?
