The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Making Money From A Game
Drake Reaching into his back pocket, Drake pulled out a small metal cylinder - a telescoping baton that he often used in his martial arts training. With a flick of his wrist, the baton extended to its full length, and he gripped it tightly, his knuckles turning white.Andrew eyed the baton warily, knowing that Drake's proficiency in martial arts could pose a serious threat. But he remained calm, his posture relaxed and his hands still clasped behind his back."This is becoming more interesting, I thought I wouldn't see some actions" Andrew smiled as he stared at the stick at Drake's hands. "If you think that little stick is going to stop me, you're sorely mistaken," Andrew said, a faint smile playing on his lips.Suddenly, Drake launched himself forward, the baton swinging in a vicious arc towards Andrew's head. "Take this!" Drake yelled.But Andrew was ready, he already stepped to the side, narrowly avoiding the strike. Then, with lightning-fast reflexes, he reached out and grabbed
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Revenge Taken
Andrew stared at the two couples as Elsa held Drake on her lap after Andrew had successfully defeated Drake."You've done enough by humiliating him. Please, consider letting him go," Elsa indirectly pleaded for Drake's sake, knowing that Drake would never admit defeat due to his pride."Haha... I guess your precious boyfriend can't even apologize for me to call off the debt," Andrew squatted down, smiling at Drake who was in pain and anger."And now you see me as the bad person. If I were the one losing... Do you know what your boyfriend and his crew would have done to me?" Andrew said to Elsa, recalling past memories of being humiliated by Drake."I know you must have forgotten so soon. I was the same boy who was tied to..." Andrew's voice trailed off as he moved swiftly to the basketball pole, gripping it tightly and looking up."Do you still remember when I was tied here, and your boyfriend, whom you think I'm bullying, was right over there?" Andrew pointed to a spot in the distanc
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Rival Dojo
Andrew had obtained the location of the Dojo beforehand, which was why he knew where it was located. As Andrew sped off in his car towards the Dojo, Hannah was clueless about what was happening. She asked Andrew, "What's going on? Are you being pursued by someone?" Andrew steered the wheel while replying, "I made a deal with Master Alec, your father's friend, and I have to be there as soon as possible."Hannah felt a bit perplexed, wondering what kind of business Andrew had with Master Alec. She knew that Master Alec was solely focused on martial arts.Anticipating her curiosity, Andrew decided to explain, "Let's just say it's a short-term arrangement where I'll be getting paid to fight.""Fight!" Hannah's anger flared up, and she clenched her hands. While she knew Andrew was a skilled fighter, she didn't like the idea of him engaging in fights. She didn't want to see him get hurt. "He doesn't always consider himself," Hannah whispered under her breath."Sorry? Did you say something?
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Andrew Finishes Them Off
The Black Dragon students rushed towards the Crimson student who had defeated their teammate David."We must finish them off" one of them shouted as he was infuriated."Hey, hold on a sec!" Master Alec tried to interject, but his words were drowned out by the sound of the students colliding in a flurry of strikes.The Black Dragon students, fueled by a thirst for vengeance, attacked without hesitation, disregarding Master Alec's advice. The Crimson student, a towering figure with bulging muscles, effortlessly caught the first Black Dragon student who dove at him. He grabbed the student by the collar and hurled him across the training grounds, sending him crashing into a stack of wooden practice dummies, which splintered on impact."You bastard, you must pay!" another Black Dragon student yelled as he charged forward, his fists launched towards him. The Crimson student sidestepped the attack, then delivered a devastating elbow strike to the student's ribs, eliciting a sickening crac
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Andrew Finishes Them Off-2
With lightning-fast reflexes, he dodged the first few strikes, his body moving with a fluidity that belied his years of training. He ducked under a spinning kick, then used the momentum to launch himself into the air, executing a backflip that carried him clear over the heads of his attackers.As he landed, Andrew pivoted on his heel, his leg snapping out in a powerful roundhouse kick that caught one of the Crimson students square in the chest, sending him flying backwards. The impact was so forceful that the student crashed through a nearby wooden shed, reducing it to splinters.The remaining Crimson students paused, as they were shocked at what was going on. They had not expected such raw power and agility from this an ordinary-looking young man.Andrew didn't give them a chance to recover, launching himself into a series of attacks. He bounded from one student to the next, his limbs were barely visible as he delivered mirages of strikes at one second.One Crimson student tried to
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Past Rivalry
Andrew was led into the wooden house in the middle of the dojo. Some injured students were being carried inside from the field to receive treatment.Inside, Andrew, who had contributed to their victory, sat next to Master Feng while they were served food.The inside of the wooden dojo was filled with writings about martial arts. The light was soft and gentle, reflecting off the wooden floor.The seating area featured comfortable cushions on mats, creating a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. They were low tables with intricate carvings in the center that held simple cups, plates, and bowls.Another corner housed a small garden designed in the traditional Japanese style. It included small rocks, a peaceful water feature, and bonsai trees. Andrew and Hannah sat on the mat while the food was being served. Andrew quickly began chewing on the food that had been placed on his table, unconcerned about what was happening. Andrew eagerly dug into the steaming dumplings in front of him, savoring e
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Love Rivalry
Andrew sat alone in his dimly lit living room, a half-empty bottle of wine clutched in his hand. Andrew had promised Master Alec that he would do something and he will have to do everything possible in other not to shame the Black Dragons dojo,"The Black Dragon dojo," he murmured, swirling the wine in his glass. "I have to find a way to help them, to give them the edge they need to defeat the Crimson Shadow." He took a long sip, the rich flavor doing little to quell the turmoil within him.Andrew shook his head, "But not today," he said, placing the glass on the table. "Tonight, I need to rest and clear my mind." Leaning back into the plush cushions of the couch, he closed his eyes, allowing the warmth of the flickering firelight to wash over him.The next morning, Andrew set out on his daily jog, his mind already focused on the tasks that lay ahead. As he turned the corner, he caught sight of a young woman jogging in the opposite direction. She was undeniably beautiful, her figure
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain What's Happening
Nora called her driver, and as she entered her car, she drove off immediately. She was determined to do everything possible to make Andrew hers.Meanwhile, Hannah pulled Andrew away from the chaotic scene. Andrew was still wearing his jumpsuit and canvas shoes, and his well-built physique and muscles were clearly visible. Andrew was quite curious as he walked along the pavement with Hannah. He had no clue where she was taking him.After a few minutes of walking, they arrived at a towering building that exuded luxury, appearing to be a grand hotel. Andrew, feeling slightly underdressed, hesitated at the entrance."Hannah, I think I'm not properly dressed for this place. Maybe we can come back later," Andrew suggested, attempting to loosen Hannah's grip on his arm."I told you that you're my boyfriend today, and you must act like one. And what does a gentleman do for his lady? He treats her to a nice meal. Since you can't do that, let me help you," Hannah responded, her cheeks blushing

Almost
The elevator ascended through Liu’s residential tower. Andrew stood alone, dressed in black from collar to cuff, shoulders square, eyes steady. The city below shimmered through tinted glass—clean, mechanical, heartless. Like the man he was walking toward.He had received the message less than twenty minutes ago:“Come to the residence. We need to talk.”When the elevator doors opened with, Andrew stepped out into the private hallway of Liu’s upper penthouse. It was like walking into another world—warm lighting, mahogany walls, soft classical music drifting from somewhere he couldn’t see. For a place built by a man with blood on his hands, it smelled like jasmine and eucalyptus.He turned the corner and almost bumped into someone.“Oh—Li!” a familiar voice called brightly. “I was hoping to catch you.”Andrew stopped mid-stride and softened. “Mama Mei.”Meilin Zhen—Liu’s wife—stood by a corner cabinet, placing a vase of fresh peonies into place. Dressed simply in a white blouse and bla
Antenatal; I Love You Like A Daughter
The rain that fell heavily at night had stopped by morning. Hannah stepped out of the hostel with a scarf wrapped tightly around her head.The coins in her pocket jingled softly with every step—her entire week’s worth of tips, spare change, and what remained from her last cleaning job.Just enough, she clutched the folded leaflet from the shelter in her other hand. It listed public hospitals that offered prenatal services in the city, and one of them, Red River Women’s Clinic, was circled in blue pen."Just get there....Just register.....Just try." They was crowded, too loud, too fast. By the time she arrived at the hospital’s main lobby, her palms were slick with sweat. She looked up at the signs—mostly Mandarin, with some awkward English translations beneath them—and approached the front desk where two nurses in white uniforms were checking papers from a young couple.When it was her turn, she stepped forward hesitantly.“Hello... I, um... I want to register... antenatal care,” she
My Inner Man
The elevator ascended through the tower. Andrew stood alone in the glass capsule, as he could see himself in the mirrored wall as he moved Forty floors beneath him, Shanghai.But here, on the way to the seventy-second floor, everything was muted. He adjusted the cuffs of his jacket and ran through the pitch in his head again. There were no second chances with Liu. A single misplaced word could tear everything apart. Still, Andrew's face was calm, unreadable. As the elevator slid to a stop with a soft chime, the reinforced doors opened into a private vestibule guarded by two men in black suits. Neither spoke. One waved a biometric scanner in front of Andrew’s eye. It beeped once.“You may enter,” the other said.Andrew stepped through the glass security gate into Liu’s sanctuary.The penthouse office stretched out like a blade—clean angles, matte black walls, a white marble floor that absorbed the sunlight pouring through windows.In the distance, the Huangpu River glinted like merc
My Guys Always Have My Back
Monitors lined the walls of where Taylor, Fredrick and Leon resided. Each was streaming security feeds, decrypted chatter, and scrambled comm logs. Taylor sat before them, expression locked in concentration.The fact that Taylor, fredrick and Leon not being arrested was a bit strange, despite the fact they were involved. To the public, it looked like an airtight case: millions rerouted through dummy accounts, data trails forged, and Taylor’s login credentials stamped across the audit logs.But inside the network, those who mattered knew the truth: Andrew had been framed.Taylor, Fredrick and Leon, weren’t charged—not because they were innocent, but because they were smart. They didn’t run. They didn’t hide. They stood still and watched the flames burn around them.They knew the moment they disappeared, it would confirm guilt. Instead, they played it slow—publicly cooperative, legally protected, and always one step ahead of the full investigation.The firm’s real players—those who orch
The Universe Wants Us Together
The next morning, sunlight bled through the broken blinds of Hannah’s cramped room. Her stomach cramped from hunger, and the ache in her back reminded her how little comfort she’d gotten from the stained mattress.She sat up slowly, holding her belly. “Okay,” she whispered, brushing a strand of hair out of her face. “No more crying. You need to work, Hannah. You need to survive.”She splashed cold water on her face from the rusty sink in the corner, changed into her cleanest shirt, and stepped outside into the city’s chaos.By mid-morning, she’d walked into six different shops asking the same thing:“Do you need help? I can clean, I can serve tables, anything—just for cash.”Most turned her away before she finished her sentence. A few didn’t even look at her.She stood outside a noodle bar for ten minutes watching the staff through the window. Finally, she mustered the courage and walked in.A stout, middle-aged man glanced at her with a scowl.“You speak Mandarin?” he barked.“Yes, I
I'm In Pains
The automatic doors of the Shanghai Pudong International Airport whooshed open as Hannah stepped into the city.Her boots hit the wet pavement with a squish. Rain had just passed. She looked around at the streams of people—tourists with luggage, businessmen tapping furiously at phones, taxi drivers shouting over the noise. It was chaos. Fast, unfeeling, uncaring.She had no plan. No address. No one waiting.She held her suitcase as she whispered to herself “I just need to find a place to stay. I’ll figure the rest out later.”Her phone was already dying, but she managed to open a travel app and search for cheap motels nearby. She found one on the outskirts and tried to book.Declined.She blinked. Tried again.Declined.“No… no, no, no…” she muttered. She checked her account balance.Just under 250 yuan. Maybe enough for food, maybe one night if she was lucky. Not enough for security deposits or ID checks.Before she boarded the flight to Shanghai, Hannah used a third-party agent to
I'm Pregnant With His Child
Hannah sat on the cold tile floor of her bathroom, the test strip trembling in her hands.Two lines.Positive.Her breath hitched. The world seemed to tilt, the walls closing in around her."No...This isn’t happening." She squeezed her eyes shut, her pulse roaring in her ears. This was supposed to be impossible.Her stomach twisted violently. She barely made it to the sink before she gagged, her whole body shuddering."Pregnant. I’m pregnant." Tears blurred her vision. She pressed a shaking hand against her abdomen, as if feeling for proof.A whisper escaped her lips. “Andrew…”His name was like a knife to her chest. He was gone. And now? Now, she was carrying his child.She let out a shaky laugh, the sound bordering on hysteria."What am I supposed to do?" She thought of her father. His strict rules. His unyielding expectations."If he finds out…No. I can't let that happen." Her breath came in ragged gasps as she pushed herself up, gripping the edge of the sink for support. She sta
CIA Operatives
Andrew stared at his burner phone, heart pounding. The message wasn’t just a bluff.Another text came through.♣See for yourself.♣Three images loaded.Adeline tied to a chair, for the first, a gun held to her head, Zhao Feng grinning in the background and a timestamp—less than two hours ago.Andrew clenched his jaw. His thoughts were that, it was a trap. It has to be. But if I do nothing, she dies.Another message followed.♣Come alone. Warehouse 47, the docks. One hour.♣His grip tightened on the phone and the final message came.♣Tick tock, assassin. She doesn’t have all night.♣He didn’t hesitate. He grabbed his gear and headed out.Andrew sped through the streets on a stolen motorcycle, weaving through traffic, eyes locked on the road ahead. His mind calculated every possibility."Warehouse 47," he muttered to himself. "Obvious trap. Zhao Feng doesn’t leave things to chance."He exhaled sharply and checked his weapons, speaking under his breath."Two silenced pistols—accurate, q
Am I Falling In Love?
The air inside Liu Wenjie’s private office had a lot of cigar smoke. Andrew stood in front of the massive mahogany desk, his expression unreadable.Liu exhaled slowly, setting his whiskey down. "You were supposed to make it clean." His voice was measured, but Andrew knew the weight behind those words.Andrew’s fists clenched. “Someone else hit the club. If I retaliated, I would have drawn more attention."Liu leaned back, steepling his fingers. "And now, we have a war."A rival syndicate had lost their biggest supplier. Song Jinhai's death had turned the streets of Shanghai into a battleground.Liu’s gaze hardened. “Zhao Feng won’t let this slide. He thinks I ordered the hit." He exhaled sharply. “You fix this, or you’re dead.”Andrew’s jaw tightened. “What’s the play?”Liu smirked. "Simple. You kill Zhao Feng before he kills us.”Liu tossed a newspaper onto the desk. The bold headline glared up at Andrew:“Gang War Erupts in Shanghai – Unidentified Assassin Sparks Bloodshed.”The Bla
