Qin Yan spent the entire afternoon distracted, constantly thinking about Ah Ling. When a man thinks about a woman, it’s nothing but love. He refuted in his mind, “No, I don’t like her. She’s not tall, not pretty, her face has freckles, and her skin is as pale as a ghost. Most importantly, I don’t like women. There’s already someone in my heart.” He just felt that there was a huge secret hidden within that woman. Qin Yan wasn’t a curious person, but at this moment, he was like…- 132.6 K • Completed
Chapter 38: Cut Off the Harbor and Sever the Source The courtyard was crowded with people, whispering among themselves. Their eyes toward the Mohe Guard held suspicion and fear, but no one dared openly confront him. Young Master Tao lay dead in a pool of blood. When someone dared to prove their words by death, no one would dare doubt their them. The Mohe Guard wept bitterly, tears streaming down his face, but his old eyes remained sharp. He turned to look at Fang Jingyu’s face—his eyebrows were…- 450.2 K • Completed
When it was time for dinner, Ji Fan showed up too. The Ji family’s driver dropped him off at the door. Ji Fan tossed his schoolbag off his shoulder and let it fall to the floor. His school uniform had some dust on it, and he wore a sour expression, like a little lion barely holding back its temper. “What’s with the face?” Ji Shu said with a laugh. “Got in a fight and lost?” “I didn’t lose,” Ji Fan huffed. Meng Chuan ruffled Ji Fan’s bristling hair and chuckled at how funny…- 144.9 K • Completed
“Take a break this time.” Back in the banquet hall, Yudit once again picked up a chair. “I can’t do that.” Despite their words, Selena and Yasin were flushed and panting. “You don’t have to help with everything. The reason I called you both today was to get your advice on the interior decorations, not to make you carry things. If this continues, I won’t be able to ask for your help in the future.” At Yudit’s firm words, Selena and Yasin hesitated before nodding. “Go…- 396.9 K • Completed
That spring marked the beginning of a season filled with unrest. The Emperor had completed a new round of concubine selection and chosen several stunning beauties. Each one possessed grace and allure, but two in particular stood out among them. One was the daughter of a minor official from the borderlands, fiery and bold. The other was a merchant’s daughter from Jinling, her figure cold and elegant like snow. These two women were not only stunning in appearance but also unmatched in bed. Their…- 157.9 K • Completed
- Most of the men under Bu Nian were rough-edged generals, skilled in battle and crude by nature. Back when they served under the old general, they were already the sort who spent their nights with the finest courtesans and drowned themselves in the strongest wine. After Bu Nian took over, their habits remained unchanged, growing even more unrestrained over time. All evening, he sat quietly with a cup in hand, drinking but never joining in the noise or revelry. Several courtesans who had been eyeing him…

Weisai handled the discussions separately with Ying Ming and Shi Yi. Kou Jing was also present. When Ying Ming met the lawyer, Kou Jing was right beside him. Seeing him push the door open, he stood up to greet him. "Mingzi, how are you? You're really okay?" The latter shook his head. "I'm fine." Only then did Kou Jing sit back down. Before doing so, he introduced the two people next to him. "Mingzi, this is Chen Fengli, a board member of Weisai. And over there is our legal consultant, Zhao…- 283.2 K • Completed
- After finishing their meal, Shi Yi said he wanted to take a nap. They had originally planned to leave after two in the afternoon. But before he could even fall asleep, he got a call from Kou Jing. Kou Jing told him that someone from Weisai would be coming in the afternoon and asked him and Ying Ming to wait a little longer before setting off. As soon as the call ended, Ying Ming’s phone rang. “Did Kou Jing tell you too?” “Yeah.” “Perfect, then get some more sleep.” It was…

- The CEO returned faster than Shi Yi and Ying Ming had expected. The previous call had already alerted the rest stop, and they had sent out a vehicle. It happened to cross paths with the CEO on his way back, so he led them straight over. Ying Ming and Shi Yi stepped aside to give the paramedics room to work. Dong Xiao was covered in blood, the sight of it almost too much to take. Shi Yi could not look anymore and took a few steps away. Ying Ming glanced at him. "What’s wrong?" "How the hell…

- After dinner, Shi Yi asked Ying Ming if he dared to drive at night. The other answered bluntly, “I’m not looking to die.” Shi Yi laughed. “I thought you were going all in.” “Being serious and looking to die are two different things.” Throwing his own words back at him, Ying Ming shrugged and grabbed the room key from the front desk. Shi Yi's room was right next to his. The temporary lodging at the rest stop was nothing like a hotel, just barely livable. The walls were thin, and if they…
