Lian Ai forced his weak body upright and crawled toward Daoist Ji Yuan’s corpse. The moment he saw the man’s eyes wide open in death, his heart clenched. He quickly turned his face away and reached for the man’s waist. His hand brushed over the key at Ji Yuan’s waist. Gripping it tightly, he turned back and struggled to unlock the cell door. His legs had no strength left, so he slumped against the doorway. Bu Nian slowly opened his eyes. He braced himself against the iron bars and stood, each…- 157.9 K • Completed
On a bench by the seaside road sat a man wearing sunglasses and a mask. He stared blankly at the stream of passersby, lost in thought, until a man in a suit came to stand in front of him. “What do you want from me?” Wen Shang asked. It was the first time he’d met with Hua You alone since their breakup. Hua You looked up at Wen Shang, then removed his sunglasses and mask. He patted the empty space on the bench beside him. “Won’t you sit?” “No need. I’ll stand. I won’t be staying…- 147.2 K • Completed
Yin Yan touched the collar around his neck every so often. In the mirror, the silver metal ring looked heavy, but it was lighter than expected. Lu Zhengming had custom-ordered it from lightweight alloy. It was more hygienic than leather, and unlike stainless steel, it would not weigh down the cervical spine. The exterior of the collar was engraved with intricate Byzantine-style patterns. Inside, in Lu Zhengming’s own handwriting, were the initials Y.Y. They had designed it together. Lu Zhengming…- 136.3 K • Ongoing
Huaxia Online had a rather unfriendly game mechanic: weapons dropped by dungeon bosses were automatically bound to the player who picked them up, meaning they couldn't be traded afterward. So, if a party ran a dungeon and got a good weapon or piece of gear that no one in the party needed, they'd usually have someone hover over the boss's corpse—without looting it—to prevent the body from despawning. Meanwhile, they'd announce in the World Channel something like, "XX weapon dropped in XX dungeon,…- 509.5 K • Completed
Even though he had mentally prepared himself and was confident he wasn't nervous, Jiang Ruo still felt a sense of relief wash over him upon hearing an affirmative response. "How about we meet," he said. "You choose the time." Xi Yufeng didn't object. About half an hour after hanging up the phone, he sent a text with an address, setting the time for the day after tomorrow at five in the afternoon. Presumably, people like them were very busy — billions of assets changing hands every minute — and…- 178.8 K • Completed
The night was deep and the crescent moon faint. Xu Chun, accompanied by his guards, galloped for about an hour before arriving at the spot by the Pure Water River where the imperial carriage was stationed. Along the way, they were stopped for inspection, but the Fengxiang Guards were able to pass through unimpeded since they carried the tokens of the palace guards. The dragon ship, painted with golden dragons, was moored in the Pure Water River harbor. Dragon lanterns on the ship shone brightly, adorned…- 643.5 K • Completed
After entering the house, Li Tang first called his mom to inform her that he wouldn't be returning home tonight. "The rain is too heavy, there are barely any cars on the road. The old city district's roads have cracks, it's very dangerous. Tell Master Sun not to come pick me up… I'm at a classmate's place, his family lives near the school… Has Dad already left?" Upon learning that Li Yuanshan had flown to the capital in the afternoon, Li Tang relaxed: "By the way, Mom, do you know why Dad went to…- 197.1 K • Completed
“By the way, Jaeri, I heard you used your noona’s card to buy alcohol.” “Gack… ahem…” Startled by the sudden attack, the choked Jaeri quickly pulled out a tissue and covered his mouth. Heejeon quickly got him a cup of water and gently patted his back. Even amidst this, Yoonjae kept her arms crossed and glared at Jaeri. “Ah, thank you. I’m okay now.” “Do you know how much I got chewed out by my oppa? I know his personality better than anyone, and I did it because I wanted…- 124.1 K • Ongoing
- In a flash, Ding Hai returned with the four servants named after the seasons. Upon their return, Fang Zixing led them to kneel outside the Suiyu Hall, ready to beg the Emperor for forgiveness. Xu Chun, however, was leading a group of guards carrying a cow's head, returning in high spirits from outside. Walking into the courtyard, he spotted Fang Zixing and Ding Hai, first startled then delighted. "Ding Hai, you're back? What happened?" Fang Zixing was first drawn to the sight of the cow's head. "What…

It was just a brief touch. Xu Xishuang kissed him quickly and abruptly, not wanting Yan Yushan to notice how nervous and inexperienced he was. He tried to bolt right after, but the moment he stepped back, Yan Yushan pulled him right in again. The bag he had been holding was casually tossed to the floor. Yan Yushan’s left hand gripped Xu Xishuang’s wrist, bringing him back in front of him, while his right hand firmly and gently cradled the back of Xu Xishuang’s head, tipping it up so he…- 248.3 K • Completed
