The Maid is a gripping tale of power, revenge, and an attraction that defies all reason. Julian and Juliana’s first encounter was anything but ordinary. A single misstep—Julian colliding into Juliana on her way to a high-stakes contract meeting—triggered a chain of events neither of them could have foreseen. Her drink spilled all over him. His ego refused to bend. In a moment of unfiltered rage, Juliana lashed out, unaware that the man she had just insulted held her career in his hands. When Julian retaliated by ensuring her contract was destroyed, Juliana’s world crumbled. Then came an unexpected offer—a new job, courtesy of his assistant. Desperate, she accepted, only to realize too late that she had walked straight into the lion’s den. She was now Julian’s personal cook, trapped in his house with no way out. What began as months of relentless torment soon spiraled into something far more dangerous. Beneath the surface of their battles, an undeniable tension simmered, blurring the lines between hatred and desire. Julian, the man who once sought to break her, found himself ensnared in a feeling he couldn’t control. She was supposed to be nothing more than a mere employee. Instead, she became an obsession he could no longer escape. But in a house built on secrets and hidden agendas, love might not be enough to save them from what lurks in the shadows.

In a world where mortals strive to defy the heavens, where mountains float and oceans roar with spiritual beasts, the cultivation world stands on the edge of chaos. The Radiant Court rules above all—seven Thrones, unshaken for ten thousand years. They decide who rises. They decide who falls. But there is a legend whispered in silence. A name spoken only in riddles. A figure who once stood above the heavens… and walked away. Chen Fi. No one knows where he came from. No one knows how strong he truly was. Only the oldest cultivators remember the tremble in the world when he last raised a hand. They say he once refused the title of Immortal Emperor. They say he gave up the Nine Dao Thrones. They say he saw something beyond power… and chose peace. Now, hidden in a quiet valley unknown to most maps, he lives as a humble hermit—drinking tea, fishing under cherry blossoms, and raising a single orphan boy. But peace never lasts. When the world begins to stir—when arrogant sects send disciples to claim his land, when the Thrones grow fearful of a man they could never control—old echoes awaken. Chen Fi does not seek conflict. But should conflict find him… He reminds the world why it once knelt.
