The day before the college entrance exam, I took a life on my back. Because I grabbed a WeChat red packet, and being the king of luck, I had to kill my teacher with my own hands!
When I woke up again, I deleted the contact information of every classmate.
Then, I ran out of the classroom in front of them.
My classmates stared at me in shock. The teacher chased after me to stop me, but I kept walking toward the school gate, blocking her contact as well.
On July 20, 2023, the day before the college entrance exam, our entire class was suddenly pulled into a group chat called the Lucky Money Group. The group admin started sending out cash prizes right after we joined.
The luckiest one would receive Its reward.
Its reward trapped us all in a constant fear of death.
The only way to survive was to follow Its instructions and complete Its tasks.
In my previous life, I was "lucky" enough to be the third round's cash prize winner. Its reward was to make me kill the unconscious teacher on the stage, or the rest of the class would die for me.
With two prior examples, my classmates forced me to act to save themselves. I took a pen and stabbed it into the teacher's chest in front of them.
But what did I get?
In the fourth round of cash prizes, they took my life with their own hands.
In the end, as I watched their excited faces, relieved to have saved themselves, I realized that in the face of sin and despair, anything could be sacrificed.
Perhaps God couldn't bear to see me die like that, or maybe knowing my obsession lingered, the heavens gave me a second chance.
I checked the time on my phone.
There was half an hour left before being pulled into the group chat.
Time was tight. I had no time to waste. I didn't know how to prevent the tragedy that would unfold. The only thing I could do was delete every contact who could pull me into that group chat from all my social apps.
The most urgent thing was to leave this class, leave the school.
I was never a selfless person. After witnessing the evil of human nature, I didn't believe I could change the outcome in this second life.
Since I lacked the power, the only option was to save myself. After all, I still had the college entrance exam. I had worked so hard for years just for the moment I could step into the exam hall.
As for telling them what would happen?
Sorry.
I couldn't take revenge, but that didn't mean I'd be a saint after being betrayed once. As long as I could survive, their fates had nothing to do with me.
"Alexandra."
Someone nudged me. I snapped back to reality and glanced at her.
It was my desk mate.
In my previous life, my desk mate Talia was the fourth cash prize winner.
After I completed the third cash prize task, I thought I might survive. But as the fourth winner, her task was to strip me naked in front of the whole class.
She sobbed, saying I'd already taken a life, so losing my clothes to save her wasn't a big deal.
At that point, I was desperate, my mind barely clear.
But because I hesitated for a few seconds, she suddenly stabbed a ballpoint pen into my throat. As I struggled to breathe, she didn't even look at me. She just tore off my clothes as fast as she could to complete Its task.
That was it.
I died naked under the gaze of my classmates. In that moment, I saw them secretly close the door. I saw them pull out their phones to film my body.
Seeing her again, I kept my face blank. I scrolled through my phone, deleting and blocking every classmate's contact one by one.
Curious, she asked, "Alexandra, what are you doing? Why are you deleting everyone?"
"The exam's coming. After graduation, we'll all go our separate ways. Why keep them?"
She froze, clearly not expecting me to say that.
Of course not. Our class had 53 people, including me. More than half got along well with me because I was helpful, pretty, and kind. Yet I killed my teacher, lost my life, and didn't even keep my dignity.
When I didn't respond, she smiled cautiously and asked, "You're not going to delete me too, are you?"
I smiled, found her account, and right in front of her, deleted and blocked her in one go.
"You... Alexandra, have you lost your mind?"
Her voice rose sharply.
Every classmate turned to look. I calmly packed my books from the desk and walked out of the classroom.
"Stella once savored Marc's devotion, yet his covert cruelty cut deep. She torched their wedding portrait at his feet while he sent flirty messages to his mistress. With her chest tight and eyes blazing, Stella delivered a sharp slap. Then she deleted her identity, signed onto a classified research mission, vanished without a trace, and left him a hidden bombshell. On launch day she vanished; that same dawn Marc's empire crumbled. All he unearthed was her death certificate, and he shattered. When they met again, a gala spotlighted Stella beside a tycoon. Marc begged. With a smirk, she said, ""Out of your league, darling."
Life was straightforward for Dominik, or so he thought. He ruled over a prison housing thousands of cunning and ambitious individuals. There was little to no drama, but one day, his fiancee, who already held a high-ranking position in the military, casually tore up their marriage contract and threw it in his face. It was not until then that he realized... As he stepped out of his corner, a whole new story unfolded that would shock everyone. Wanna follow Dominik on this journey?

Her sister's perfect life crumbles. Her parents regret the daughter they cast aside. But Camille didn't come back for apologies, she came back to watch them burn. But as her enemies fall at her feet, one question remains: when the revenge is over, what's left? A mysterious trillionaire Alexander Pierce steps into her path, offering something she thought she lost forever, a future. But can a woman built on ashes learn to love again?

Five years into marriage, Hannah caught Vincent slipping into a hotel with his first love-the woman he never forgot. The sight told her everything-he'd married her only for her resemblance to his true love. Hurt, she conned him into signing the divorce papers and, a month later, said, "Vincent, I'm done. May you two stay chained together." Red-eyed, he hugged her. "You came after me first." Her firm soon rocketed toward an IPO. At the launch, Vincent watched her clasp another man's hand. In the fitting room, he cornered her, tears burning in his eyes. "Is he really that perfect? Hannah, I'm sorry... marry me again."
Rachel used to think that her devotion would win Brian over one day, but she was proven wrong when his true love returned. Rachel had endured it all-from standing alone at the altar to dragging herself to the hospital for an emergency treatment. Everyone thought she was crazy to give up so much of herself for someone who didn't return her feelings. But when Brian received news of Rachel's terminal illness and realized she didn't have long to live, he completely broke down. "I forbid you to die!" Rachel just smiled. She no longer needed him. "I will finally be free."
Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
