TAMW CH19

by DewdropTL — Yuqing leaned over the old master's bed, his normally straight back finally bending. Outside the window, it was completely silent under a clear, boundless sky. Inside, the room was as cold as an ice cellar. Zhou Yuzhang's cheeks were deeply sunken. Perhaps because Yuqing was by his side, his exhausted, lifeless eyes were half-open, stiff and unmoving. "You saved me back then just so you could close your eyes in peace when you died, didn't you." Yuqing reached out and gently closed Zhou Yuzhang's…

TAMW CH4

by DewdropTL — Yuqing led the way, with Zhou Xiao following closely behind him, trailed by several servants. The old master was named Zhou Yuzhang, and Zhou Xiao was his only son. Now over fifty years of age, illness had completely sapped his vitality. Resembling a blinking corpse, he lay woodenly upon a nanmu wood bed tinged with the scent of decay. Yuqing asked, "Has the Master taken his medicine?" Housekeeper Deng replied, "He is waiting for you." Old Master Zhou suffered from an incurable illness. Because…

by DewdropTL — However, the first four words of the address had been crossed out and rewritten simply as: "Yuqing." Yuqing looked at the letter. The candied fruit in his mouth tasted overly sweet, making him want to gag, but he forcefully suppressed the urge. "Young Madam... you've been throwing up for days..." Zhao Fu stood beside him, gently waving a fan. "Should we fetch a doctor?" Yuqing waved his hand dismissively. He rinsed his mouth, but still felt unwell. His stomach was churning violently. He was…

by DewdropTL — Just as he was mourning the state of his romantic life, a soft touch suddenly rested against the back of his hand. Ruan Yuqing’s hands were like silk brushed by a spring breeze, carrying a hint of coolness as he stroked him gently. His eyes and brows held the tender devotion of a dutiful wife, but in the next instant, sorrow overtook him, rimming his eyes with red. "Please don't laugh at me, Young Master. Truth be told, Yuqing is truly reluctant to see you go. Even if you hold no affection for me,…

by DewdropTL — "Bad?" "If Men aren't bad, women won't love 'em~" Li Yuanjing leaned lazily against the leather sofa. "Zhou Xiao, what happened to you today? Did you offend your little stepmother? You look terrible." "What stepmother?" Zhou Xiao rolled his eyes at him, privately regretting whether he had been too cold to Yuqing earlier. "Isn't your father sick? Why does he still believe in taking in a concubine to ward off bad luck and bring good fortune? How is the new concubine? I haven't heard about your…

by DewdropTL — As soon as the Eldest Young Master departed, Baizhou City was engulfed in several consecutive days of ceaseless rain. After traveling through the wind and dust for days, Second Uncle brought back Zhou Min’s corpse. It was early spring, so keeping the body for a few days wouldn't cause it to rot or stink. When an exhausted, grief-stricken Second Uncle had the body carried through the gates, the bright red Double Happiness characters adorning the entire Zhou Mansion had not even been taken down yet.…

by DewdropTL — Shencheng Industrial Bank. After spending a few days sorting out the paperwork in Shanghai, the bank’s affairs proved not too troublesome and were handled smoothly. With the official documents from Shanghai in hand, the coal mine in Liu County legitimately became the private property of their bank. The bank president treated him with utmost deference, sporting a beaming smile for days on end. Zhou Xiao stayed in an apartment building in the city center. That evening, the section chief in…

by DewdropTL — He and Yuqing had shared only a single encounter. Yet brief as it was, it could not remain merely that. With eyes wide in sheer disbelief, the man tried to crane his neck back for one last look at his killer. After a few muffled, choking coughs, his bloated head floated atop the washbasin like a weightless balloon. Zhou Xiao wiped his hands clean. From the stage outside, the nightclub singer’s melodious voice drifted in, switching to the tune of Night in Shanghai. Faintly haunting and rather…

by DewdropTL — The décor of the Peace Hotel leaned decidedly European. When knees pressed into the round, plush, king-sized bed, it felt like sinking into a quagmire, yielding deeply beneath the weight. Yuqing’s long hair had only been half-pinned with a jade hairpin. Suddenly hoisted up and thrown onto the bed, the hairpin tumbled away to parts unknown, leaving his dark locks to cascade across the sheets like a waterfall. "You—" He hadn't intended to stay long in Shencheng; it was only because Deng Yongquan…

by DewdropTL — Standing there, Zhou Xiao appeared exceptionally tall and imposing. Even with Yuqing stepping on top of his shoes, he still had to stand on tiptoe to barely meet the man’s gaze on level ground. With only a three-year age difference between them, Yuqing’s physique seemed far too frail and sickly by comparison. Nourished like a chronic medicine jar for years on end, his flesh clung thinly to bone, possessing the enchanting, alluring beauty of a living spirit. Zhou Xiao’s robust, youthful…
