- As night fell, the wind chimes in the corridor occasionally swayed, making a muffled sound. The heat from the summer days did not fade with the evening, and the ice in the room had melted almost entirely. Even with the window open, there was not a bit of cool breeze, and the stifling summer heat lingered in the air, wrapping itself around people. Qiao Guanxing sat cross-legged on the bed, wearing a thin open shirt, eating lychees soaked in ice water. The young emperor, sitting at the small deskβ¦

- In the heart of spring, the Immortal Garden was awash with blooming flowers, layer upon layer, spilling from the sides of the gravel path into its depths.

- The first time Zhou Jingyuan came to the Astrology Tower was during last yearβs autumn. Β At that time, Qiao Guanxing had only just arrived, still half-blind to the ways of the Imperial Palace.

Β From behind the rocks and through the crowd in the garden, he gazed from afar, spotting Zhou Jingyuan cladβ¦

- It was the hottest season of the year, and the ginkgo tree leaves in the Astrology Towerβs courtyard curled under the sunlight, looking wilted and sickly. Β Even the palaceβs notoriously domineering cat seemed to lose interest in troubling Qiao Guanxing, lazily lying in the shade beneath the tree, enjoying the coolness of the stone table. Β Occasionally, a gentle breeze would pass, and the copper bird wind chimes outside the window would slowly turn, emitting a few faint, crispβ¦

βHello, do you need washβ¦washβ¦β Jiang Chaosheng stood at the door of a dorm room, speaking English with a heavy regional accent. He stammered wash for a long time but still couldnβt come up with the English word for air conditioner. Every early summer at C University, it was customary to arrange for Mechanical Engineering students to clean the air conditioners throughout the schools. Three minutes ago, Jiang Chaosheng carried his tools and knocked on the door of Room 666 in the boyβsβ¦- 6.2βKββ’βCompleted
Losing a name badge wasnβt a big deal in itself, but Chi Zhao had just solemnly declared at noon that such a thing wouldnβt happen to him again, only to be proven wrong in the afternoon.

Operation: Rescue the Second Prince! (Part 5) The first thing I saw was a stern-looking elderly man lying in bed, breathing shallowly. The moment I saw him, I felt an inexplicable sense of unease. βFather, Iβve brought the hero.β Lukeβs tone had become stiff, a stark contrast to before. The king, who had been lying with his eyes closed, slowly opened them and looked at me. His pale blue eyes fixed on me, and I noticed the faintest hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth. βTheβ¦- 29.7βKββ’βOngoing
- Operation: Rescue the Second Prince! (Part 4) As I sheathed Oreole again, I heard a soft clap-clap and turned to see Prince Luke smiling and applauding. Β "To cut through those chains so effortlesslyβtruly impressive." "...Ah, thank you." Β Feeling a bit embarrassed, I scratched my cheek.
