A MAN WHO BUILT A CITY OF BRIDGES MUST NOW FIND A WAY TO RECONNECT HIS OWN DISSOLVING MIND.

From the shaded alleys of 1970s Guangzhou to the frenetic, dust-filled construction of Shenzhen, Chan Kwok Yung and Li Yi Mei build a life together on a foundation of love, sacrifice, and shared dreams. Yung, a brilliant engineer, raises highways and skyscrapers, his ambition a testament to the enduring structures he hopes to leave behind. May, his heart, fills their home with music, her melodies a quiet anchor in a rapidly changing world.

They find their future in Hong Kong, a city of dazzling promise where they raise two children who inherit their dual passions: Winnie, a razor-sharp lawyer who builds cases, and Jason, a tech prodigy who builds worlds within machines. The Chan family stands as a monument to the unyielding spirit of those who build a life far from home, their success a testament to a love that has weathered every storm. But when a tragic accident on a construction site shatters Yung's body, it triggers a far more insidious collapse. The fall accelerates a devastating neurodegeneration, and the man who could recall every blueprint with perfect clarity begins to lose the names of his own children. The intricate map of his life begins to unravel, leaving his family grasping at the fading fragments of the man they love.

The Memory Keepers is a sweeping, multi-generational saga of family, identity, and the enduring power of love. It is a poignant, unforgettable story that asks a profound question: when the mind forgets, what is left for the heart to hold onto?All Rights Reserved

Stand-In Shadows 🌑🩸(PondPhuwin) by Boys_in_Bloom

He lost the love of his life once. He never expected to see his face again. Pond has lived for years haunted by grief-his gentle, soft-hearted lover torn away too soon. But when Phuwin walks into his life, wearing the same face yet carrying a soul far sharper, the past comes crashing back. On the surface, Phuwin is everything Pond remembers: pure, fragile, angelic. But behind the mask lies something dangerous-a white lotus in full bloom, hiding thorns of manipulation, selfishness, and desire. Where the one Pond lost was yielding, Phuwin is fierce. Where the past was tender, Phuwin burns. Pond tells himself he won't fall. That this stranger can never replace the ghost he mourns. Yet every kiss tastes like obsession, every touch like poison, every night a war of lust and loathing. The more he resists, the deeper he's dragged into Phuwin's web-until he must face the truth. Is he in love with a memory? Or has he finally found the one who can set him free? Alongside them, Off and Gun walk their own path-one of devotion, jealousy, and healing love. Their bond is tested, but in their steadiness lies the contrast to Pond and Phuwin's storm, and the promise that even in shadows, happiness is possible.

Jeon Jungkook yearned for love, but his wealthy aunt's house offered only cold betrayal. His family-the ones he trusted-shattered his world, leaving him with nothing but a broken heart and a shattered reputation. One ruthless dose of a drug, one desperate stumble, and everything changed. Overcome by a primal heat, the omega fell straight into the arms of a predator-an alpha consumed by rut, dangerous and utterly unrestrained. What began as a desperate struggle for survival ended in an unbreakable bond neither chose. By sunrise, Jungkook awoke to an empty bed, a ghost of an alpha's face in his memory, and a positive pregnancy test that sealed his fate. Shunned, abandoned by his fiancé, and whispered about with shame, he fled, carrying a secret and a devastating loss they told him he suffered. One tiny life, gone too soon. He left the country, vowing to start anew with the remaining twin. Meanwhile, Park Jimin, heir to a formidable legacy, faced his own unexpected truth.

A forced marriage that demands everything. Can love rise from the ashes of their darkest night, or will their secrets destroy them? Topjm Jikook Published in: 24/08/2025
