"So the business you're talking about is... helping me launder money?" Xu Shuo laughed at once. "A misunderstanding. I'm a law-abiding citizen, I don't touch illegal business. Just now, I was only offering Manager Zhang some legal advice from the standpoint of cooperation." Xu Shuo took out another business card, set it on the table, and pushed it toward Zhang Xiang. Only this time, the card was extremely plain and simple, white background with black text, nothing fancy. The two characters "Xu Shuo" were…-

At the same time, in Jiang City. When Gu Yao woke up, the little tank top on her body was already soaked through. She had sweated a lot, and her body felt a little hollowed out. Leaning against the headboard and catching her breath, her eyes were not dull at all from just waking up. On the contrary, they were remarkably alert, fixed on a corner at the foot of the bed. Most of the scene from her dream had already dissolved. Gu Yao could not remember much, only vaguely catching a few images. But when she…

Gu Yao stared at the automatic door for a long time, thinking maybe she just hadn't closed it properly, or maybe its smart system had glitched? She set down her lesson plan, rebooted the computer tower inside, then used the remote to lower the projector screen again. But just as Gu Yao was about to shut it down once more, the cursor on the screen suddenly stopped obeying her. It moved on its own, slowly heading toward a folder on the desktop. Gu Yao gripped the mouse and dragged it rapidly across the desk,…

Conspiracy 1936, Shanghai “My father is already on his last breath. These days I’ll be going to the hospital often to see him. Once he’s gone, you can make your move on your end.” Zhu Xin listened to the opera while looking at the stage below from the private room. Li Xiao paced back and forth in the private room with his hands in his pockets, then smiled and asked, “You want to take over You Tianxia. That’s pretty bold. Your big brother isn’t just decoration—he’s really going to…-

Joke Yan patriarch had many wives and concubines, and the family had many children. Zhu Xin was also Yan patriarch’s child, but he did not bear the Yan surname. There were many reasons for that—perhaps because of his malformed body, or perhaps because his mother was a prostitute born in a brothel, the lowest and most despicable kind of woman. Since the day he entered this family, he had endured bullying and contempt from everyone in it. He had not come to this family of his own will. His mother…

Meeting the Family After spending so much time together these past days, Yan Chao had more or less become immune to Zhou Chenyu. Expressionless, he reached out and shoved him away. “This master doesn’t have weird tastes like that.” The two joked around as they walked, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the main gate of the Zhou residence. Zhou Chenyu rang the doorbell. An auntie came to open the door, and the moment she saw him, she asked in a warm, natural tone, “Young master is…-

The Eldest Brother Is Like a Father By now, it was already getting late. After chatting a little more, the group said their goodbyes and went their separate ways. As before, Zhou Chenyu drove Yan Chao home, with Yan Chao in the passenger seat. Even though they had already left the theater, Yan Chao’s mind was still full of Zhou Chenyu’s suddenly serious manner from just now. Before, whenever he was with Zhou Chenyu, he had only felt that this person was so wild he had no limits, good for nothing…

River Wind and Fishing Fires Once the audience had completely cleared out, the enormous theater instantly became empty and hollow. Even speaking carried an echo. Guan Chenfeng and Jiang Chenchi had already taken off their changshan and changed back into regular clothes. They greeted them with utmost respect, “Hello, shige. Hello, Xiao Yan-laoshi.” Seeing how suddenly well-behaved they looked, Yan Chao could not help freezing for a moment. Weren’t they having a great time using him for zagua…

The Troupe Master Furen Comes to Inspect No matter how Yan Chao thought about it, he still found it hard to imagine that half a month ago, his impression of xiangsheng had still been stuck at the “just joking around” stage, yet half a month later, the first time he listened to Guan Chenfeng and Jiang Chenchi perform xiangsheng, he could already roughly see some of the craft in it. Although both of them were young, and there was still a trace of youthful greenness throughout the whole performance,…

Fenhe Bay Audience: “Yiii ” Guan Chenfeng put on an affectedly bashful look and said, “Save that kind of talk for when we get home. Right now we’re performing opera.” As he spoke, he used his fan to tap the little table beside him. “Pick another one.” Right after that, the two of them brought up Butterfly Cup, Touring Guishan, Grand Ascension Hall, and so on, all classic Hebei Bangzi operas. They even sang a couple of short lines, but in the end Guan Chenfeng, for one reason or…
