      ASHES CH49: Rainy Day

      by DewdropTL — That night, Luo Chi didn't have a single dream. He hadn't slept so comfortably in a long time. It was as if the moment he closed his eyes, his consciousness immediately slipped into the gentlest of tides. The renovated bedroom was just as good as it used to be. The terrace was filled with flowers and plants, so when the sea breeze blew in, it carried an especially fresh scent of greenery. In the middle of the night, Luo Chi smelled the cool, damp scent of rain in the wind. Unsurprisingly, when…

      ASHES CH48: Captain

      by DewdropTL — Luo Chi rested his head on his shoulder. He pressed firmly against his shoulder, his thin, slender back trembling from the choked coughs, yet he still disregarded everything to squeeze out his strength and grip his arm. That force was far more than just an answer to the question. In the dim, thin fog, the soaked fallen leaves were swept away by the sea breeze. A few flickering sparks burst from between the branches of the zhi wood. Then, in an instant, a fire, heedless of the cost, even if it…

      ASHES CH47: Returning Home

      by DewdropTL — Two days ago, Ming Lu had actually found the guitar. The luthier's craftsmanship was excellent. The wood from the surfboard was hardly wasted, all of it cleverly embedded into the body of the guitar following its curves. But having been thrown in a corner of the storeroom for ten years, the guitar's body had come unglued and fallen apart, the strings were covered in rust, and its tone had become soft and dull. Fortunately, being by the sea meant it wasn't overly dry, so the warping and cracking of…

      ASHES CH46: Guitar

      by DewdropTL — The video footage finally froze on the edge of the stage. Luo Chi was sitting there. He had placed his guitar to the side, his hands propped on the stage floor, his head tilted back quietly. He was wearing a simple T-shirt. The light was too bright, casting a silhouette around him. His sweat-dampened short hair was a little messy, and due to the camera angle, its edges had a soft halo that seemed almost tangible. This strong light would make one's vision turn completely white when looking directly…

      ASHES CH45: Stars

      by DewdropTL — When Ming Lu returned to the villa, Luo Chi was already awake. The physical and mental exertion of the day had been far greater than usual, so Luo Chi didn't have the strength to move yet. For a rare change, he wasn't doing his rehabilitation exercises but was quietly chatting with Mr. Shadow. The fire in the fireplace was warm. Luo Chi was leaning back on the nearby sofa, covered with a thin blanket, which made him look much healthier. Luo Chi could already distinguish his footsteps. Hearing the…

      ASHES CH44: Huaisheng

      by DewdropTL — Mr. Shadow said it could be an unbelievably long time. Longer than eighty years. Long enough to do everything he wanted to do, to visit every place he wanted to go. Ming Weiting squatted down in front of the wheelchair. He thought for a moment, then slowly began to tell Luo Chi about the scenery at sea. People on the shore see the sea as vast and distant, but once you're actually on the water, you discover that different seas have many variations. On the best of days, the seawater stirred by…

      ASHES CH43: Being a Guest

      by DewdropTL — The Seaview Villa quietly changed owners. This matter didn't stir up much of a splash.

Business ran into trouble one after another, and many partnerships were severed. Amidst the panic, the Ren family had already packaged and sold off many assets. Although the villa at Seaview was sold smoothly, no one was…

      ASHES CH42: Nightmare

      by DewdropTL — Luo Jun received a call from Ren Chenbai. ... Before the caller ID suddenly appeared on the phone screen, a video was playing. It was a short clip filmed on a phone. The angle was not good, and the picture was very blurry. It should not have been filmed through normal means. Indeed, it wasn't. Gong Hanrou's film crew quickly handled the matter and pursued accountability. The uploader quickly deleted the video, but a copied version had already spread thoroughly online. The popularity was very…

      ASHES CH41.2: Monster

      by DewdropTL — These should be considered two questions. Ren Chenbai separated these two questions. He answered the first one eagerly, "He is very well." "Very obedient, very sensible," Ren Chenbai said. "Many—" He seemed to have encountered some obstruction when saying this, and he stammered before continuing, "Many people like him." Ren Chenbai's fingers unconsciously twisted together. Then he suddenly shuddered, pressed hard on the leg he had broken, and a cold sweat instantly broke out. "But he's not…

      ASHES CH41.1: Monster

      by DewdropTL — Ren Chenbai appeared on the set of "Huo Miao." He was the provider of the documentary's material, and also the son of Director Gong Hanrou's old friend. He would have originally walked around the set. It was just that for some reason, this time, many people looked at him with strange eyes. The assistant director, who was familiar with him, seemed not to see him. The script supervisor immediately lowered his head and turned away upon catching sight of him. Many familiar faces he usually had an…
