"I was born in this town," Felix said. "That's the church where I was baptized."They stood together in the parish cemetery, facing a patch of pansies blooming in front of the gray granite headstones and the golden-edged ivy covering the ground. Paths paved with fine orange-brown gravel separated the adjacent graves, leading to the simple, modest Evangelical Lutheran church not far ahead and the chestnut forest surrounding the cemetery. The open area in the southeast corner was a green meadow, stretching to…- 54.1 K • Completed
Jiang Zhihuo pushed Yan Mu away, trying his best to steady his breathing. His legs were still a bit weak, his back drenched in sweat and his hair disheaveled. To make the scene more realistic, Jiang Zhihuo avoided any contact with Yan Mu, enduring the heat and pain head-on. It wasn’t a true estrus period, but Feng Zhi couldn’t tell the difference at all.

Big Dog tends to avert his gaze when he lacks confidence, sometimes even pretending to scoff with a disdainful hum. For example, every morning when Miguel greets him cheerfully from across the ship, saying, "Good morning, Captain."

And again, like when he claimed he came to Cagliari just to witness the target cargo being loaded onto the ship. When Miguel saw that ninety-degree zigzag "Z"…- 221.3 K • Completed
Lian Ai tossed and turned through the night until dawn. At first light, he rose from bed. When Fen Zi entered the room carrying breakfast, she saw him already dressed and washed, sitting quietly by the table. “You’re up early, young master.” Fen Zi forced a smile as she placed each item from the tray onto the table. When she reached the last two, her movements slowed slightly. There was a trace of extra care in her hands. Lian Ai glanced down and saw a sheet of aged paper. He picked it up…- 157.9 K • Completed
Dinner was had at Bamboo Branch House, and Lady Liu had indeed prepared several exquisite dishes—some of Xie Yi's old favorites, some new ones—all neatly arranged in the flower hall. Xu Chun enthusiastically introduced the dishes to Xie Yi. "This is rice broth pot, made from glutinous rice that has been soaked, pounded, and cooked into a paste. The rice slurry is then filtered through a white cloth and combined with clear chicken broth to create the rice broth base. It's used to cook lamb, beef, and…- 643.5 K • Completed
Commander: "You're seriously not using Sister Blood Bull's computer?!" Unlucky Soldier: "How are you not using Sister Blood Bull's computer but are at an internet café instead?!" Rich Soldier: "At 11 PM, you're not using Blood Bull's computer but are at an internet café?!" 213 Soldier: "So it's illegal for a lone guy in a foreign land, in freezing weather, not plotting anything shady with girls but braving the cold to cheer on his teammates at an internet café instead of plotting against a…- 509.5 K • Completed
- After the morning court session came the banquet, during which Xu Chun took the opportunity to retrieve his jade pendant, stashing it in his sleeve. However, during the banquet, he immediately spotted Xie Yi wearing the "Fengchi Jiaolin" jade pendant around his waist, striding about with ease. Xu Chun wished he could signal to Xie Yi but was worried that Xie Yi might misunderstand and leave prematurely, which would be even worse.

- After one meal, Shi Kuo had basically revealed his entire family history. After that, their conversation revolved entirely around Huaxia Online—Sky Arena, Ace Academy, and even a glimpse into the future where the Commander led the legion to dominate the Lover's Constellation. But one thing they didn't discuss was romance. Too long of a dry spell had left Shi Kuo's romantic skills at an all-time low. Several times he tried to steer the conversation in that direction, only for Lin Yi to divert it onto the…

- If Shi Kuo were to recount the most awkward moments of his thirty years of life, the current situation would unquestionably dominate the top spot. Ex-boyfriend versus current guildmate—which relationship was closer? It was a mountain towering over human intellect. But clearly, this mountain posed no difficulty for Lin Yi, as she yawned once before making her choice without hesitation: "Why are you here?" Shi Kuo froze for two seconds before realizing she was talking to him and hurriedly replied, "I was…
