Wei Lai felt suffocated in his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he found Chu Yin's head pressing down on his chest. Wei Lai reached out to push him away, but Chu Yin wriggled around and buried his face in Wei Lai's armpit. Wei Lai: "You should be glad I don't have body odor, or I'd suffocate you. Did you not sleep all night?" Chu Yin muttered, "I couldn't sleep. I looked it up on Baidu—it said you're supposed to bring gifts when meeting parents. What should we buy?!" Wei Lai stretched…- 133.2 K • Completed
Yudit truly had come knowing everything. Cold sweat trickled down Pavron’s spine. “T-That’s… a misunderstanding. I meant to write that in someone else’s diary but mixed it up. I erased it right away, but how did you…?” Just as Yvonne said, when the back of the diary was held up to sunlight, the words, though scratched over, appeared clearly beneath the lines. Yudit read every word and stood stunned. Then rage surged up in him. “The moment your abuse began was when Luka confided…- 396.9 K • Completed
- As Dojin’s abilities improved, his anxiety also began to fade. “Wouldn’t it be better to cut back on training a bit and get some counseling instead?” Jiho, who had been waiting for the right moment, seized the opportunity to recommend counseling to Dojin.He even started nagging, saying mental stability would help in combat, and Dojin couldn’t ignore that opinion.The threat that followed the nagging was surprisingly sharp, too. “If you don’t get counseling!” “…If I…

- “Yeah, revenge is your right. Your anger isn’t something that money can erase.” The child blinked, eyes wide—as if he hadn’t expected anyone to take his side. His cheek was flushed red. It was a mark from when he was hit for resisting Pavron. Yudit knelt on one knee and gently touched the child’s cheek. But even that made the child flinch in pain, and Yudit pulled back. It stung like saltwater poured over raw skin deep inside his chest. “I’m sorry. I was the one who recommended him as…

- Khalid had just stepped out of the tent when Yudit finally pulled on his trousers. The ointment had smeared on the fabric, making it sticky, but it was still better than sitting bare-bottomed in Khalid’s tent. When Khalid came back in and saw Yudit with his trousers on, he let out a sigh. “I told you to stay as you were.” “This is better.” Yudit shrank back, worried he might try to pull them off again. Khalid just shrugged as if to say, “Don’t worry.” “Who was it?” “A…

Seolyeong fell briefly silent, sifting through the fragments of memory still left in his mind. Now that he thought about it, he vaguely recalled hearing something about the Sect Leader’s son. It had been when the Hanhoe delegation visited Yeonhu Mountain. But that child… hmm, there had been some kind of significant secret involved, he was sure of it, but back then he had been wholly uninterested in Sahyeol Amje, so none of it had stuck. As Seolyeong’s features twitched with tension, Sa Yeoho…- 253.5 K • Completed
- Seolyeong, dazed, quietly trailed after Yang Seogyeong and Yeoso. He was just getting into his stride, stumbling along as he expanded his gyeonggong, when the ground began to shake beneath him. Something invisible clung to his feet like a spiderweb, pulling at each step. It was obvious. Sahyeol Amje had triggered a quake on purpose to block his approach. Seolyeong already knew that bastard was doing everything he could to sever ties with him, but this hit especially hard. If Sahyeol Amje needed to…

- Just as much as I have. The voice he had been yearning to hear came just as he was about to make a wish to the Wonsi Cheonjon. “I was cruel to you?” It felt like his heart had dropped. Seolyeong quickly turned his head toward the source of the voice. That man was sitting on a tree branch. The man who had stolen his heart and showed no intention of taking responsibility, only running away. Regrettably, the peach tree bursting with pink blossoms did not suit him at all. A tree like that would…

- Yang Seogyeong was waiting for Sahyeol Amje in Haeseong Pavilion. With the tip of his right index finger pressed firmly against the floor, both legs stretched straight up toward the sky, he had been holding this handstand posture for half a day already. All of his focus had to be concentrated at the tip of that finger, and his eyes were full of intensity and gravity. Tang Yujae arrived at Haeseong Pavilion later than expected and spoke in a purposely cold tone. “Follow me in.” Dignified and…

- Yudit, who had led them to the table, pulled the bell cord to have tea brought in. Seeing the three of them looking around the cluttered room, he gave an awkward smile. “The room’s a bit messy, isn’t it? Should we go outside for drinks?” “No, we’re the ones who should apologize for visiting when you’re probably so busy…” “It’s all right. I actually wanted to see the three of you before I left. Thank you for coming to me first like this.” They were the ones he had brought…
