Have You Written Your Will Today?

WenQing
Shen Hua, the daughter of the Shen family that ran an embroidery business in Fengzhou, was pampered since she was a child. She had a pretty face and smooth, fair skin. Unfortunately, her body was weak, and she'd run out of breath after walking merely a few steps. She didn't have very long to live. The Shen family gradually faced its downfall, and her wedding was delayed again and again. Cui Yun, the eldest son of the Cui family, was a noble and stern man. He was entrusted to look after Shen Hua. Why not just marry her? He thought. Since Shen Hua reincarnated, she had focused all her attention on the embroidery business. She hoped to change her life and regain her former glory. When she heard about Cui Yun's decision to marry her, she fainted on the spot. After waking up, she turned him down with tears in her eyes. "I don't have very long to live. I don't want to waste your time." Cui Yun was very considerate. "It's not a big deal. I know you feel touched, but there's no need to cry. Since you already depend on the Cui family, you might as well just become part of us. After you die from your sickness, I'll even hold a grand funeral for you." Shen Hua felt hopeless. But I'm only pretending to be sick! *** Cui Yun had many younger female cousins. Many of them had confessed their feelings for him, but he turned all of them down nonchalantly. "It's getting late. Please look after yourself." Shen Hua had never met such a clueless man when it came to romance. One night, while she was on her way home, she took a shortcut and passed by the Cui family's courtyard. Cui Yun stopped her. He was standing near the entrance, and his sleeves danced to the wind. "It's cold outside. Would you like to come in and stay for a while?"

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
