After that, Li Jiu never went to see Shi Anzhi again. He did everything he could to forget him. To hell with all the debts, to hell with living in peace. Young Master Shi could get by just fine without me. As for me, Li Jiu, with my worthless life, I’d just keep wallowing in the muck. The bald guy found him a woman, a very seductive little widow. When she climbed into bed, she even carried a faint scent of powder. He buried his head between her deep cleavage, but after a few seconds, he let out a…- 27.9 K • Completed
- When Li Jiu, covered in blood, crashed into Shi Anzhi’s shabby little house, the only thing ringing in his head was: “Debt comes quickly.” Shi Anzhi’s reaction was actually calmer than he expected. Though his face went pale, his hands didn’t shake at all. He cleaned Li Jiu’s wounds and applied medicine with steady hands, even using nylon fishing thread to stitch up the huge wound on his shoulder, deep enough to see the bone. Li Jiu’s face was deathly pale, sweat dripping down his face.…

- The first time Shi Anzhi met Li Jiu was by the garbage bins not far from his house. That winter in T City was unusually cold. It wasn’t even November yet, but the howling northern wind had already shown its fierce beginnings.. Shi Anzhi stood at the entryway of the living room, carefully wrapping a high-end cashmere scarf from France twice around his neck, covering half his face snugly. Only after mustering some courage did he open the front door, carrying a bag of old items his mother had sorted…

Shen Mo realized he had lost composure. He wiped his face messily with his hand and tried to cover it up. "I think I slept too much this afternoon…" The man gave him a long, deep look. His eyes were so dark, it was impossible to read his emotions. After a while, he bent down, picked up the last brush, and placed it back into Shen Mo's hand. Shen Mo’s fingers curled involuntarily. He managed to hold the brush, but the pain made his face go pale. He called out softly, like pleading. "Zhou…- 75.6 K • Completed
Dan Woo Hyo was only one man, yet the work that fell on him came in waves like a mountain crashing down. “So, what brings you here?” He pressed his fingers lightly against the corners of his tired eyes as he spoke. Paeng Soso hesitated for a moment before answering. “Do you remember the boy you brought back with you?” Woo Hyo’s hand paused. Of course he remembered. That boy was like an old text he hadn’t dared to open, one he kept putting off again and again. The final journey…- 125.4 K • Ongoing
- “If that happens, I’ll be the one to die.” Her voice trembled as she murmured. If Kang Oh put his own life on the line, then Woo, on the other side of the scale, would live. But the game had grown far too large for Yeonjin to handle anymore. It had only been yesterday that she decided to take a chance on the Third Disciple. If the First Overseer was acting under the Lord of Heukcheon’s command, then only Kang Oh stood a chance at stopping them. Yae Jinrang, who feared nothing beneath the…

- Yeonjin didn’t stop running until she reached the back yard behind the servants’ quarters. After rounding the corner and making sure no one was around, she leaned against a pillar and slid to the ground. The bowl she had been holding tumbled to the floor with a dull clatter. She buried her face in her knees. It had all begun with something simple. Greed, and maybe ambition. With nothing to her name, she had seized the First Overseer’s offer the moment it came. She believed it was her one and only…

- “……” Six months might seem long to some, but it was far too short to be called forgiveness. Woo silently watched Kang Oh’s back as he walked away with steady steps. He seemed unusually composed. And yet, the calmness in his posture felt heavy today. His shoulders looked burdened. There was anger in Kang Oh’s voice. Woo reached out toward his back, but his hand stopped midair. What was he even planning to do by reaching out? Offer comfort? Criticize Mo Yong Yuun? He…

- The long-distance bus from Jiangzhou to Qingshui City was half empty, with passengers scattered sparsely throughout the cabin. Xiang Ye sat in the middle section of the bus, next to the aisle. On his left sat Song Ling. Across the aisle to his right was Shen Yanzhi. Slightly ahead of him, a little girl with braided pigtails, about five or six years old, kept peeking back at him, both curious and shy. After glancing at him, she would whisper to her grandmother beside her. “That big brother is so…

He thought he shouldn't be running down, but by the time he came to his senses, he was already barefoot, rushing down two flights of stairs. His one foot was covered in black dust, and the small window in the hallway looked like a dark hole, with just a sliver of light landing on his foot. Zhou Jun leaned against the wall, lost in thought for a long time before letting out a deep sigh. He turned around and headed back. Holding onto the wall, he climbed back up step by step, piecing together memories. He…- 152.1 K • Completed
