Mo Zimu, drenched in sweat, jumped onto the train. His heart pounded heavily, unsure if Ivan was following him or had already arrived. In that moment, his emotions were complicated. He couldn't tell whether it was because his two years of peaceful yet lonely life had ended, and now he was about to live on the run, or if it was because, after this separation, he didn’t know when he would see Ivan again. He closed his eyes, and it seemed like someone walked up beside him, brushing against him. Mo…- 117.3 K • Completed
In the deep of night, the bustling activity of the Imperial Capital during the day had gradually dissipated. The shops along the streets had extinguished their lights and closed their doors. After the noise of the streets faded away, only the rhythmic sound of patrolmen's horse hooves in the distance remained, embellishing the starry sky that only appeared profoundly beautiful at this hour. The chill of the night grew heavier, penetrating Lin Wei's clothing, which, unlike a magic robe, offered no…- 224.9 K • Completed
- After the officiant, the exchange of rings, and the reading of the marriage declaration, the banquet followed. After changing clothes, I went around greeting important elders from both families. I simply smiled and let it pass when my biological father and stepmother laughed and acted like loving parents. The same went for Jeong Guhyeon, who looked like he’d just chewed shit. “This is Chairman Guhyeong of Guhyeong Steel. He’s your great-uncle.” My biological father was eager to introduce…

Chapter 59: Sea Boiling, Mountains Shattering Night hung like a mist, wisps and tendrils blanketing the sky. In front of the ship’s porthole, firelight outlined a lone figure—Chu Kuang stood gazing into the distance, his expression dazed and lost. Though he had joked and bickered with Fang Jingyu earlier, his heart remained heavy. At the thought of Fang Jingyu, pain pierced him to the marrow. Now that he had brought Fang Jingyu safely out of Penglai, his master’s dying wish had been fulfilled.…- 450.2 K • Completed
“…Are you okay, Captain? Why do you keep touching your ear?” “…I don’t know. It just keeps itching.” “Maybe someone’s talking about you?” Dojin gave a small chuckle at Jihye’s joke. For some reason, the image of Jiho talking about him popped into his mind. He smoothed down the corners of his lips that had unknowingly curved up and refocused. The target was just ahead. “Everyone, focus. You’ve all checked the map I sent to your watches, right?” “Yup yup!…- 289.6 K • Completed
Just as Wen Zhongyi finished his shower, turned off the lights, and was about to close his eyes and sleep— Meng Chuan called him for a video chat. Wen Zhongyi turned over and sat up, switched on the bedside lamp, and leaned against the headboard as he answered the call. The screen lagged for a second before Meng Chuan’s face appeared. Unlike the dim lighting on Wen Zhongyi’s end, Meng Chuan’s room was brightly lit. He was shirtless, sitting on the hotel bed with a laptop on his legs,…- 144.9 K • Completed
After saying those words, Shi Yi’s mind went completely blank for a while. The only sound in the car was the radio. Their gazes met, hazy and indistinct. Across from him, Ying Ming grinned. It wasn’t until Shi Yi suddenly snapped out of it and realized what he had just said that he felt a faint chill creeping up his back. Ying Ming sized him up for a long moment, then smiled and said, “Given your build and looks, I won’t return the compliment. Let’s just take it as flattery.” Shi Yi…- 283.2 K • Completed
- Wang Le’s question genuinely stumped Shi Yi. He sat there in a daze for quite a while before finally snapping out of it, frowning as he thought it over. "That…" His mind drew a complete blank. Man or woman, he couldn’t picture a single person. Somehow, someone like Ying Ming just didn’t seem to have a right match. Anyone next to him would feel out of place. In the end, he could only shake his head. "You’d have to ask Ying Ming himself." For some reason, the image of Wang Yiqi…

Everyone present, except for those who had been prepared in advance, was thrown into panic. The young Emperor’s face turned pale. He was shocked. “Imperial Uncle… he has rebelled?” The sound of fighting grew louder and closer. Bu Nian acted without delay and gave a direct order to Bai Shu and the others. “There is a Buddha cave in the back mountain. Take His Majesty there at once and keep him safe.” He turned to Lian Ai. After a brief pause, he added, “You go too.” Lian Ai nodded…- 157.9 K • Completed
- That New Year’s Eve, the capital was as lively as ever. Every household hung lanterns and decorations, filled with the joy of the coming year. No one knew of the undercurrents surging beneath the surface, nor could anyone have imagined that in just one day, the balance of power in the capital would undergo a drastic upheaval. On a day when everyone was busy celebrating the New Year, the Prince Regent’s residence was dead silent. Not a single dumpling or festive dish had been served. The family…
