One day Thomas Edison came home and gave a paper to his mother. He told her, “My teacher gave this paper to me and told me to only give it to my mother.” His mother’s eyes were tearful as she read the letter out loud to her child, “Your son is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesn’t have enough good teachers for training him. Please teach him yourself.”

Many years after Edison’s mother had died, Edison had become one of the greatest inventors of the century. One day he was going through the old closet and he found a folded letter which was given to him by his teacher for his mother. He opened it. The message written on the letter was, “Your son is mentally ill. We can not let him attend our school anymore. He is expelled.”

Edison became emotional reading it and then he wrote in his diary, “Thomas Alva Edison was a mentally ill child whose mother turned him into the genius of the century.”


 
Moral: A Mother’s love and upbringing can help change the destiny of a child.

Eryn looked up to see Wayne and Elias appearing around the corner.
"So there you guys are," Wayne said, catching everyone else's attention.
The girls had all escaped the huge crowds of the party and hid out in San Jing and her sister's personal courtyard, where it's closed off to the guests. "Come sit down!" San Jing said, gesturing at the empty seats at the huge table they sat around.
Wayne took the seat across from Whitney and Elias sat down next to him, placing his hands under the table to hide his messed-up sleeve from Eryn.
But she saw it anyway.
"What happened to your sleeve?" she asked.
Celeste looked up from her plate. "What?"
Wayne glanced at Elias. "Oh, he almost killed someone, that's what happened," he said casually. He coughed into his arm and Whitney noticed the cold sweat coating the back of his neck.
"Is that true, Elias?" she asked, sitting up on her seat. She frowned and darted her eyes between the two boys.
Elias glanced down at his arm and placed it back up on the table, realizing there was no use trying to hide it now. "Um, yeah," he muttered, picking at the crisp edges of the blue cloth.
"Then what's wrong with you?" Whitney questioned, poking her brother at his side. "What did you do?"
Wayne scowled. "I tried to stop him, that's what. Hell, he scared the crap out of me. I had to burn his arm to get him to stop."
San Jing and Lan Jing snorted. Wayne? Scared? That's something new.
Eryn released a breath, clearly concerned. "What the heck were you thinking, Elias?" she hissed. "How could you do that?"
"He came at me first and put me down, then he threw my crystal in the water," he grumbled, still holding the pendant tightly in his left hand. "It's not my fault. I didn't start it. He asked for it. Literally."
Celeste placed down her chopsticks and leaned forward, intrigued. "Tell us. Who was it?"
"Shane Wang," Wayne answered, crossing his arms.
"What?" Whitney exclaimed. "Who invited him?"
San Jing shrugged. "I don't know. I'm pretty sure Father wouldn't put him on the guest list. Maybe it was one of his friends that were invited, or maybe someone invited his father."
"Who's Shane Wang?" Eryn asked.
"His father is the captain of the city's garrison," Celeste told her. "He's also a disciple at Infernal Spirit Sect. Everyone knows that since he keeps bragging about it when he's home."
"Sect?" Eryn repeated, confused. "What are these sects?"
Wayne grabbed a piece of cake and bit into it. "Well, these sects are where people train their talent. Many powerful people belong to these sects. They also have sorts of military power and are sometimes needed by the Imperial family."
"Shane Wang belongs to the Infernal Spirit Sect, which is one of the second-rank sects. There's the first, second, and third rank. The first rank is the one and only Mystic Sky Sect, which leads the others. In the second rank are the Dark Feather Sect and the Infernal Spirit Sect. Finally, in the third rank are the Cold Moon Sect, the Hero Sect, and the Black Rain Sect. Of course, there are more, but these are the top."
"Each of these sects is led by a grandmaster. There are also teachers and elders, who help the grandmaster lead and train their disciples. Most of them are pretty well-known and powerful."
Eryn gave her brother a look. "Well, you're in trouble now, aren't you?" she said flatly. 
Wayne shrugged. "Eh, like he said, he wasn't the one who started it, and there were many witnesses, so it's not likely they'll come after him."
Ying sat at the far end of the table. "Oh, you'll see," she said. "They'll come...just not for the reason you guys think."
The whole table fell silent as they blinked at her. 
Lan Jing leaned over to her sister. "What's that supposed to mean?" she whispered. 
She shrugged. "Don't ask me," she hissed back. 
Ying got up out of her seat and left. 
She knew they were coming, and she had to leave. She knew they needed Eryn and Elias, but she also knew they were looking for her, the Pheonix.
But she didn't want anything to do with these martial sects...especially how they've failed her father...
______________
It was starting to get late, and many of the guests began to leave for the night, leaving only a few wandering around and helping the servants clean up. 
San Jing and the others left the courtyard to the atrium, wondering if they should help.
Master Jing brightened up when he saw them coming. "Oi! Birthday girl, you should go see the presents that you've got!" he beamed. "Come, come!" 
He led San Jing away to the tables, and suddenly, Chen and Changming came running up to them. They were extra excited when they saw the twins. 
Elias stiffened in surprise as the seven-year-old clung to his leg, looking up at him with a cheeky grin. "Hi, big brother!" he squealed. 
"Ming! Get off of him!" Celeste scolded her youngest brother, prying him away from Elias. "Sorry," she said awkwardly to him. 
Changming wriggled in her grip as she picked him up. "Where's your brother, Channing?" she asked, looking around for her fifteen-year-old brother. 
Chen pointed out the door. "Mom said he ran out with his friends," he said.
Celeste grumbled. "Ugh, again? Does that mean I'll have to take him back?" 
"I don't know..."
Madam Liu suddenly came running up to them. She took the boy from Celeste's arms and took Chen by the hand with her free hand. "It's bedtime!" she announced, taking the two boys along. 
They protested. "No! We want to stay!"
"Be quiet, we're going home!" Madam Liu insisted. She turned to Celeste. "Do me a favor and find Channing. That boy keeps running off, he has no limits!" 
Celeste rolled her eyes. "Okay..." she mumbled, heading for the door. 
"Bye, Celeste!" Whitney called after her, rocking back and forth on her heels. 
This left Wayne, Whitney, and the twins standing alone in the center of the courtyard again. "What now?" Whitney asked. 
Eryn raised an eyebrow. "We clean, of course." 
"..."
The three of them did as they were told and went to help pick up the trash and sort the cups and dishes, giving a hand to the maids. 
By the time they were almost done, Master Xia appeared from inside the halls followed by Master Bai, Edison, and Evelyn. "Ah, so you were here cleaning up," Master Xia said. "Master Jing would be grateful. It's about time to go now, how about you just leave the rest for the maids?" 
Wayne, Whitney, and Elias all glanced at Eryn. 
Eryn straightened up at looked around. Seeing that there were only decorations left hanging up, she agreed. "Alright, then," she said, brushing off her hands. "Let's go."
They headed out the door and noticed that the carriages were missing. 
Wayne whirled around, looking for his father. "Father? Where'd the carriages go?"
Master Xia grinned quite mischievously. "Hehe, actually, I sent them home. Don't you think it's good to have a nice walk every once in a while? Look at the night sky! Ho, ho! Beautiful!" 
Wayne raised an eyebrow as Master Bai walked alongside his father, Edison and Evelyn on his heels. "And...Uncle Bai...?"
Master Bai laughed nervously. "Ahaha...I happened to send my carriages home as well," he said awkwardly. 
Wayne made a face while the twins rolled their eyes. Who would buy that? Clearly, the two Masters were trying to create another chance for another interaction between the twins and their biological father. 
Still, they walked on through the night streets in a small group. 
The twins walked ahead with Wayne and Whitney, who was chattering away endlessly about anything random that comes up to her mind. But they didn't mind, as it filled up the silence. 
Edison trailed closely behind the four, awkwardly trying to find the right moment to fit in with them, eager to somehow join into their conversation. It was hard, for they didn't even seem to realize he was walking behind them. He was like an ant trying to catch the attention of four giants. 
Evelyn trailed behind the two family heads while they walked, refusing to say a single word. 
It was all fine, perfectly fine as they walked through the streets until Elias looked down at his pendant that he reattached to his belt. It was activated again. 
He glanced at Eryn, who was also looking down at her white crystal hanging around her neck.
The twins glanced around. Was there something wrong? 
But it was only them out on the road. 
Elias glanced back down at his crystal and realized that it wasn't buzzing or pulling towards any certain direction like it did the past two times. It only glowed softly, hanging loosely from its chain. 
They continued to walk, aware of their surroundings, but the crystals remained the same, merely just glowing. 
They reached an intersection, the point where the two families had to split ways now. 
"Ay, see you tomorrow, Old Bai," said Master Xia, giving his friend a pat on his shoulder. 
Master Bai smiled. "Yes, see you."
Wayne and Whitney bowed politely as the Bai's turned to leave. 
"Eh? Where are the twins?" Master Xia wondered, searching around. 
Master Bai sighed almost sadly. "It's fine, we'll be going then." He left with Edison and Evelyn and disappeared down the street. 
Master Xia shook his head. "I thought it would work, this time..." he muttered. 
Wayne turned around to see Elias and Eryn already halfway down the street, and he ran to catch up with them. "Hey, wait up!"
He caught up with them and went in front, walking backwards to face the twins as they were talking. 
Eryn snorted as she watched him stumble over a pebble. "So, they're gone?" 
Wayne regained his footing and continued to walk backwards. He nodded. "Yeah, they've probably already reached home," he answered, scratching the back of his neck. "I think that-"
Elias and Eryn both stopped in their tracks and Wayne felt himself crash into something as he took another step backwards. "What the-"
He turned around to and looked up to see two old men staring down at him, both dressed in significant colored robes. They both stood tall and had one arm crossed horizontally under their chests while the other rested at their sides. 
One old man had a wrinkly face and had a long, gray beard, ten times, the one Master Xia had. He was wearing light blue robes with swirling patterns that ran down the seams of the cloth. 
The other one had long, black hair with a few strands of white sticking out here and there. He was wearing striking black and red robes and considerably skinny. 
"Hello, Wayne," the one with the long beard said warmly. 
Wayne stepped back to stand with the twins, who seemed equally surprised. "Who...who are you?" he asked. 

Elias Bai and his elder twin sister, Eryn Bai, are the firstborn children of their generation. The eldest children were always meant to be the most powerful of their sibling group in every family, but when no spirit appeared in the skies when they were born, they were deemed as disgraces with worthless souls. For seventeen years, they were ignored by their own people and left to fend for themselves, trying their best on their own in the little area provided for them in the back of their Bai Family's property while the rest of their family celebrated and trained their other children that were successfully born with notable animal spirits. They have both dreamed of something more, hoping they could leave the place they have been confined to for their whole lives. Then, unexpectedly, the day the youngest member of the family was born, things start to change, for the better and for worse...

Just when the server was about to press the shutter, Ming Ansheng suddenly turned his face and kissed Su Yue's cheek.
His actions were so unexpected.
Su Yue's mouth hung open as she turned to stare at him.
The server quickly snapped another photo of Su Yue staring at Ming Ansheng.
"Great!"
The server beamed happily at himself as he passed the phone back to Ming Ansheng.
"Thank you." Ming Ansheng received the phone from him.
He looked at the family photos. He was extremely satisfied and happy with it.
Su Yue wanted to steal a glance at the photos, but she wasn't tall enough.
"Alright, there you go." Ming Ansheng sent the photos to himself before returning the phone to Su Yue.
Before Su Yue could grab the phone, Ming Ansheng withdrew his hand. He crossed his arms in front of his chest as he grinned slyly at Su Yue. 
Su Yue was perplexed and annoyed. "Give me back my phone!"
She tried to snatch it back, but Ming Ansheng was too agile.
Ming Ansheng bent his back and inched forward to Su Yue's face. He pointed at his cheek and said, "Kiss me, then I'll return it to you."
"Don't be so thick-skinned." Su Yue's face darkened as she tried to snatch the phone from him again.
But Ming Ansheng was too tall and agile for her. If he didn't want to return it to her, how would she be able to snatch it from him?
He dodged her hand once more, and Su Yue stomped her feet. She held Xiaojiao's hand and marched towards an empty table. 
Ming Ansheng strode after them and said, "It's just a kiss and I'll return it to you. It's not as if a piece of your flesh will be cut off."
"You're even more shameless than my third brother" Su Yue turned around and glared at Ming Ansheng.
Poor Young Master Yan was being attacked.
Young Master Ming secretly gloated. 'That's how I was being influenced!'
He had deliberately learned these tricks from that fellow.
Women loved guys who were shameless. So… he was being forced to become one.
Su Yue ignored Ming Ansheng and led Xiaojiao to an empty seat. She ordered food for herself and Xiaojiao.
She refused to look at Young Master Ming.
The female server looked at Ming Ansheng with a smile.
Ming Ansheng smiled at her before he browsed through the menu. He ordered a steak.
He didn't close the menu, and he looked at Su Yue. "Do you want a drink?"
Su Yue was looking through the photos with Xiaojiao and ignored Ming Ansheng.
She still felt bashful because of his teasing earlier on.
Ming Ansheng pressed his lips helplessly, and he flipped the menu. He pointed at a bottle of red wine, which cost USD $600. He said, "A bottle of this."
Su Yue instinctively thought of wine and she glanced at the menu. And she was right.
She frowned. "Aren't you driving?"
Actually, this restaurant was just a ten-minute walk from her place.
"That's true…" Ming Ansheng closed the menu and said, "Water please, thank you."
The server left with the menu.
'Cough, cough…'
Ming Ansheng coughed several times and he covered his mouth with his palm. He wanted to stop coughing, but he couldn't.

Over time, they fall for each other, but they continue to conceal their feelings for each other. By a twist of fate, they are forced into a marriage. And unknown to everyone else and Yan Rusheng, she has harbored a deep secret for many years…

Sugary Scene： 

Suddenly, Wen Xuxu stretched her hand to clutch his wrist and pulled him forcefully. 
Yan Rusheng was caught off guard and he lost his footing. He fell on the bed and then his breathing became sluggish. 
Young Master Yan was afraid that he might lose control of himself and do something to Wen Xuxu... the woman he loathed. So he hastily raised his head. 
But he had barely moved away when Wen Xuxu stretched out her hands and put them around his neck. "Don't leave."

Chapter 1793: Don't Think of Leaving Without Paying
"This isn't about which car I'm driving. It's the bill that's not right," Bi Hai also frowned. "Show me the receipt!"
"Here." The boss casually handed the receipt over to Bi Hai, and was not afraid of him looking at it.
Bi Hai received the bill, held it up and appraised it. He immediately realized which part was not right. Each lamb skewer cost twenty yuan! Isn't it two yuan on the menu?
As for the chicken neck, it's price was raised from three yuan to fifty yuan. The chicken wing's price had also changed from five yuan to eighty yuan. As for other foods, their prices were increased by at least tenfold.
"Boss, how can you count the bill like this? The lamb skewers are supposedly two yuan each. How come it is twenty yuan each now? And these chicken necks, aren't they supposed to be three yuan each? Why did you write fifty yuan?" Bi Hai said as he pointed at the numbers on the bill.
"Two yuan for a lamb skewer? Who told you that it's two yuan? I wouldn't even profit if it was two yuan," The shop owner rolled his eyes and said, "My shop's lamb skewers were originally twenty yuan to begin with. Did you see wrongly, or did you imagine it?"
"Show me the menu again!" Bi Hai's face turned a little gloomy. Before this, he didn't feel anything and thought that the owner had counted the bill wrongly. Now, he vaguely guessed something. This boss wants to scam me, right?
The shop owner didn't mind at all. He took out a menu and casually handed it to Bi Hai, "The price is written here and it is very fair. Check it yourself!"
Bi Hai took the menu and flipped through it. He immediately realized that something was wrong when he saw the first page. Although this menu seemed to be the same as the one he had used to order, the prices on it were the same as the inflated prices on the bill.
On the menu, it was written very clearly that one lamb skewer was twenty yuan, and one grilled chicken neck was fifty yuan. As for the other stuff, the indicated price was the one that had been increased by more than tenfold.
Did I really get it wrong? Bi Hai squinted his eyes. It can't be. Even if I saw wrongly, Yang Ming, Jing Xiaolu and Ge Xinyao would have been able to tell when I was ordering. If the price was really that high, it would be impossible for them to not have any objections.
"Xinyao, come here for a while!" Bi Hai waved his hand at Ge Xinyao and asked her to come over.
Ge Xinyao was blushing and felt embarrassed when she saw Bi Hai did not come back for so long after going to settle the bill. He kept looking at the receipt and the menu.
You rarely treat us. Why are you so stingy? Why are you comparing the receipt with the menu? She was quite some distance away from Bi Hai and the shop owner, so Ge Xinyao could not hear what they were talking about.
When she saw Bi Hai calling her over, she suddenly felt puzzled. Just settle the bill. Why are you calling me over? However, Ge Xinyao still stood up and went over.
"What's wrong? Why is it so hard for you to settle the bill?" Ge Xinyao complained as she walked over.
"Xinyao, look at the menu and the receipt. Doesn't it have some problem?" Bi Hai frowned and handed both the menu and the receipt to Ge Xinyao.
"Look at what? What's there to look at? Just settle the bill quickly. Don't get laughed at by Brother Yang and Xiaolu," Ge Xinyao felt a little sorry and said. She thought, Is Bi Hai being so persistent just because of a few yuan? If Brother Yang and Jing Xiaolu come to know of this, wouldn't he be making a fool out of himself in front of them?
"Xinyao, there are some problems with this receipt. Have a look before you say anything!" Bi Hai said firmly.
"What's there to look at?" Ge Xinyao took the menu and receipt. She frowned like Bi Hai after glancing at it, "What? This meal is four thousand plus yuan? Is this a joke?"
"Look at the menu again. I remember that when I was ordering the lamb skewers just now, they were two yuan each. How did it change to twenty yuan for one?" Bi Hai said as he pointed on the menu in Ge Xinyao's hand. "I thought that I remembered wrongly, so I asked you to come to take a look."
"It was two yuan to begin with!" Ge Xinyao opened the menu and saw that the lamb skewer's price had really changed to twenty yuan. Although Ge Xinyao wasn't lacking any money now, she didn't want to spend unnecessarily.
If it was three to five yuan, then she would just let it be. Ge Xinyao would be too lazy to argue. However, this barbeque would cost four thousand and eight hundred yuan. Isn't this a joke? What did we eat? Seafood or abalone?
"Boss, what's the meaning of this? Are you trying to scam us?" Ge Xinyao was now certain that the shop owner was trying to scam them. This kind of stuff always appeared on the paper. After tourists went to eat at a tourist spot, the meal that was originally a few hundred yuan would suddenly become a few thousand yuan.
"Scam? What scam? The price is written on the menu, and it is very fair. You ate here, and you ordered the dishes. This means that you agreed with the menu's price. How can you say that I'm scamming you?" The shop owner said with a determined face. He was intent on scamming them.
In actuality, the boss had used this method to scam an unknown amount of tourists that came here to visit. He always felt satisfied whenever he did it.
All these people were similar. They were all from overseas, and did not want to cause any troubles. Most of them were rich, and did not really mind these few thousand yuan.
Because of this, although they were angry, they were not willing to persist. They thought that the boss would have strong background locally since it was his turf. As foreigners, they wouldn't be able to fight off the locals.
The boss had captured their mentality, and always felt satisfied whenever he scammed them. The boss had prepared two menus. One was for the locals, and the other was to trick the foreigners.
The boss saw Bi Hai and the others driving a BMW that had a foreign license plate. Thus, he decided to scam them.
Although the locals in this restaurant knew that the boss was scamming Bi Hai and the others, none of them were busybodies. They did not expose it. Who would care about this matter? It had nothing to do with them at all. They would not just offend the boss for no reason.
Besides, they were from the same town. They met him regularly. It would be awkward for them to disrupt his business.
"You have prepared two sets of menus. The menu you showed us before wasn't the same as this one!" said Ge Xinyao. "Show me the menu you gave us just now!"
"What menu just now?" The boss widened his eyes and said, "Miss, don't spout nonsense! I'm running a business here, and it's fair and square. How can I have two sets of menus? From the looks of it, you guys are trying to run away without paying the bill after eating?"
"I don't care about running away without paying the bill. However, if I were to do so, what can you do?" Ge Xinyao also got angry. She was not someone kind to begin with, and was also an overbearing person during her time as a student. Now that Bi Hai was doing very greatly, and was working under Yang Ming and Bao Sanli, no one dared to offend Ge Xinyao in Song Jiang City.
How could Ge Xinyao not be angry when this little barbeque shop owner wanted to scam her?
"What can I do? Don't even think about leaving without giving money!" The shop owner gritted his teeth, and shouted at the kitchen, "Zhang Dapao, go clamp their car!"
"I got it, boss!" A fatty with a meaty face strolled out from the kitchen. In his hand was a car clamp. He directly walked towards the shop's door, raised his hand and locked Jing Xiaolu's BMW. After that, he casually took the key, walked inside the shop and passed it to the boss.
"You…" Ge Xinyao never expected to meet a more overbearing person this time. In Song Jiang City, no one dared to act like this towards her. However, someone dared to act like this in a small town like Jidun City! They even asked someone to clamp her car.
"Miss, tell me this time. Are you going to give me money?" The shop owner sneered while holding the keys. His face was filled with a "don't think of leaving without giving me money" expression.
Originally, Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu did not really notice the matter regarding Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao. Since they had developed their relationship to a more intimate level they stuck to each other like glue. Only when the boss asked someone to clamp the car outside after arguing with Ge Xinyao did Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu notice the problem.
Chapter 1794: Destroy the Shop (A)
However, Yang Ming did not stand up. He could just let Bi Hai settle this kind of problem. If Bi Hai really could not settle it, it wouldn't be too late for him to intervene then.
"Boss, right?" Bi Hai's gaze turned cold, "Before doing something, you better think of the consequences. Don't do things that you will regret. Before scamming someone, you should consider their identity first. See if they're someone you can offend!"
"Yeehaw? You're threatening me?" The shop owner did not show any signs of being afraid after hearing Bi Hai's words. Instead, he laughed loudly. He had heard this kind of speech many times. These tourists that he had scammed had come from many different lands, and some were very influential in their area. However, their powers were useless when they arrived here. This place was his territory, and his will was absolute!
"I guess it's counted as a threat," said Bi Hai plainly.
"Haha, I'm not afraid of threats! Many people have threatened me. I have heard this kind of threat at least a hundred times. But how about now?" The shop owner laughed without any worries, "I'm still standing here perfectly fine! I don't care what identity you have over there, and how influential you are. If you're here, don't think of leaving without giving money!"
"Do you not believe that I'll destroy your shop?" Bi Hai said calmly after looking at the shop owner.
"Ha, that is the funniest joke I've ever heard! Destroy my shop? Give it a try! See if you can leave this village while standing!" The shop owner sneered, and yelled in the direction of the kitchen, "Dapao, bring some men out!"
After the shop owner's voice sounded, Zhang Dapao that went to clamp the car just now brought four to five delinquents out. They surrounded Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao.
"Why? You still want to destroy my shop now?" The boss looked at Bi Hai complacently. The shop owner was not afraid at all because there were these men in the kitchen. There were some punks among those tourists that were scammed. However, they gave in when they saw the broad-shouldered Zhang Dapao leading a group of teenagers out. They just admitted that they were unlucky, gave the money and left.
This was also why the boss dared to take action against Yang Ming, Bi Hai and the others.
Bi Hai still had a little confidence in fighting against Zhang Dapao. After all, Bi Hai also grew up in a chaotic environment. Sometimes, fighting does not only rely on pure strength and body size, but also techniques.
It was no problem for Bi Hai to face Zhang Dapao one-on-one. However, Zhang Dapao was not alone. He still had four to five delinquents beside him. From a glance, it was apparent that they were experienced in fighting, which made Bi Hai lack confidence.
All of a sudden, Bi Hai's face turned uncertain. If this was Song Jiang City, he could call a bunch of people with a single phone call, and immediately flatten this barbeque shop. However, now…
"Talk, kid. Weren't you very capable just now? Didn't you want to destroy my shop? Why aren't you destroying it now? Destroy it! If you don't destroy it, you're a coward!" The shop owner could naturally feel Bi Hai's fear, and said insultingly.
"Since you want it to be destroyed so much, then let me fulfill your wish." Bi Hai did not say anything, but another voice sounded. It caused the shop owner, Zhang Dapao, the delinquents and the customers in the restaurant to turn their heads at the same time.
The one who spoke was Yang Ming. When Yang Ming saw Zhang Dapao bringing out the few delinquents, he knew that Bi Hai could not handle them. Seems like I'll have to deal with this myself.
He then stood up and slowly walked towards Bi Hai and the shop owner. He said while walking, "Everyone here saw it. When the time comes, please be my witness. It was this shop owner that begged me to destroy his shop!"
Although the customers did not dare to offend the shop owner, they did not know about Yang Ming's origins. Since Yang Ming dared to say such words, he must have some backing. The customers lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything. They decided to side with the more powerful person. Before the victorious one was decided, they wouldn't speak.
Yang Ming was just casually speaking. He didn't even need any witnesses. If he wanted to destroy anyone's shop, he didn't need any reason to do so. A reason is merely used to comfort the heart before doing something evil.
"Brat, are you tired of living?" The shop owner concluded that this punkish Yang Ming who had just appeared was the leader of the group when he noticed that Bi Hai was not saying anything. "Brat, you seem like you are the leader, right? I'll give you one sentence. Pay for the meal, and you all can leave."
However, Yang Ming did not even bother looking at the boss. He directly walked in front of Zhang Dapao and checked him out. He then said plainly, "You're called Zhang Dapao, right? Was my car clamped by you?"
Without waiting for Zhang Dapao to finish speaking, he immediately raised his hand and grabbed Zhang Dapao's throat, and lifted him up, "I'll give you one second. Unclamp my car."
"Cough cough… You scumbag! I curse your mom!" Zhang Dapao's breathing became labored after his throat was grabbed by Yang Ming. He started to cough violently, "Let me go. I'll kill you! Why are you all just standing there? Take action!"
When Yang Ming grabbed Zhang Dapao's neck, both the shop owner and Zhang Dapao's underlings were dumbstruck. He never expected Yang Ming to really take action, especially in front of so many people!
Yang Ming also looked much skinnier than Zhang Dapao. However, he could lift him up with one hand. This guy is not ordinary.
Zhang Dapao's underlings came back to their senses after receiving Zhang Dapao's order. They fiercely pounced at Yang Ming with raised fists. They wanted to start a fight.
Yang Ming did not let Zhang Dapao go, and did not even look at the few delinquents that were coming in his direction. Instead, he raised a leg and simply parried a few times. The few delinquents ended up all falling to the ground at the same time, wailing like kids.
Yang Ming had already killed someone previously, so he did not want to be cruel. He just wanted to give them a warning, so he just broke their bones.
Yang Ming's actions stunned the shop owner. Zhang Dapao who was scolding Yang Ming was also stunned.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Ming had defeated five delinquents. The shop owner did not even see what happened clearly. They were already lying on the ground before he noticed.
No matter how stupid the shop owner was, he knew he had encountered someone hard to deal with today. Yang Ming was much stronger than the few delinquents he hired.
"What did you tell me just now? You were scolding my mother?" Yang Ming's hand that was grabbing onto Zhang Dapao did not relent at all. He did not even bother looking at the few delinquents, and directly stared at and questioned Zhang Dapao.
"I… I didn't…" Zhang Dapao's started to break into a cold sweat. He was the kind of punk that liked to bully the weak, but feared the strong. When he saw how Yang Ming defeated five of his underlings in an instant, Zhang Dapao did not dare to have any temper anymore. In fact, he had become afraid of Yang Ming.
He didn't know how badly the five delinquents were wounded. But he knew that they must have been wounded badly from their tragic screams. I'm the leader, and I scolded Yang Ming just now. Doesn't that mean I'm in much more danger?
"Bang!"
Yang Ming casually pressed Zhang Dapao's face into the wall heavily. The back of Zhang Dapao's head crashed into the wall and started bleeding. Luckily, Zhang Dapao was thick-headed, and wouldn't die just from a crash.
"I'll ask you one more time. What did you say about me…?" Yang Ming asked.
"I… I… I said curse your mother…" Zhang Dapao almost wanted to cry.
"Go unclamp my car." Yang Ming released his hand. He was too lazy to argue with him. His mood before this was quite good, but it was ruined by this Zhang Dapao
Zhang Dapao sat on the ground. Although he was very nervous, he did not dare to delay Yang Ming's orders to unclamp the car. He turned his head to the boss, and the boss quickly passed the keys in his hand over to Zhang Dapao.
Zhang Dapao did not care about the pain at the back of his head. He ran to the door and unclamped Yang Ming's car. After that, he quickly ran back, "Brother, I've unclamped it…"
"En." Yang Ming nodded. "It was a bit longer than one second, but I'm too lazy to argue with you."
"Thank you brother, thank you brother!" Zhang Dapao immediately said gratefully. He felt wronged as he was already in such a state, yet he had to gratefully thank the person who beat him up. It can't be helped. He's more powerful than I am.
Yang Ming's fight just now had truly shocked Zhang Dapao and the shop owner. They thought that they had encountered an international Chinese kickboxing champion. Isn't he too agile?


Yang Ming is an underachiever in high school. Unmotivated, he skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. However, by an act of goodwill and fate, he obtains some high-tech contact lenses that give him superpowers. Together with his gangster street-smarts and ruthless fighting skills, it doesn't take long for him dramatically change his life for the better.
As his journey unfolds, he battles against society's big guns and attempts to bring justice into an unjust world. Along the way, he has many interesting and romantic encounters with the ladies who are charmed by his shameless flirting.
How will he use his superpowers?
Will he be able to overcome evil and bring justice to the world?
Who will he choose to be with at the end?

Hati Xuxu bergidik ketakutan. 
Untungnya, dia tidak setuju dengan kalimat terakhir Tuan Muda Ming. 
Wajah Ming Ansheng memucat ketika dia mendengar suara Yan Rusheng tetapi dengan cepat pulih sendiri. Ming Ansheng berbicara dengan ringan, "Bukankah aku mengatakan aku ke sini untuk meminta makan? Mengapa kau mengutuk biro hukumku?"
Yan Rusheng menatapnya dengan dingin, "Karena kau sangat bebas, kupikir perusahaanmu pasti sudah runtuh."
Yan Rusheng berbalik dan kembali ke kantornya.
"Aku di sini untuk makan siang bersamamu!" Ming Ansheng membuntuti Yan Rusheng dan berteriak. Dia berbalik ke Xuxu. "Nona Wen, wanita cantik, bantu aku dan bergabunglah dengan kami nanti."
Xuxu tersenyum dan menyetujui undangannya.
Dia akan terlihat sombong jika dia menolaknya lagi.
Hari ini, dia mengenakan celana ketat biru safir yang memperpanjang kakinya yang sudah terlalu panjang. Dia memasangkannya dengan kemeja sifon putih. Pakaiannya menggemaskan dan sesuai dengan pekerjaan. 
Dia berjalan di samping Yan Rusheng dan mendengarkannya mengobrol dengan Ming Ansheng.
Seperti biasa, Yan Rusheng mengenakan kemeja putih dengan celana hitam, sesuai dengan sikap dan rasa berkelasnya sebagai Presiden. 
Xuxu mulai bertanya-tanya apa Wen Xinyi akan absen dari makan siang ini ketika dia melihat Wen Xinyi melambai pada mereka di restoran.
"Kakak Sheng, kemarilah," Wen Xinyi memberi isyarat dengan tangan ramping, dan dia tersenyum ceria di wajahnya.
Begitu dia melihat Wen Xuxu, mulutnya bergerak dengan cemburu.
Xuxu memperhatikan perubahan ekspresinya saat Wen Xinyi mengikuti Yan Rusheng.
Restoran barat yang berkelas masih memiliki banyak meja kosong sebelum tengah hari.
Ketiganya melenggang menuju Wen Xinyi dan meja mereka. Tanpa ragu, Ming Ansheng segera duduk di sebelah Wen Xinyi.
Meja mereka ada di dekat jendela dan Xuxu melihat bahwa Yan Rusheng tidak berniat untuk duduk di dalam. Maka dia mengambil kebebasan untuk duduk di kursi itu.
Saat dia duduk, dia tersenyum pada Wen Xinyi yang duduk berhadapan dengannya. 
Mata Wen Xinyi berkabut karena cemburu sesaat, tapi dia masih bisa tersenyum kecil. 
Wen Xinyi mengenakan kemeja hijau zamrud, berlengan mengembung, dan rambut hitam panjang lurus jatuh melewati bahunya. Poninya menyentuh ujung alisnya, dan dia tampak malu-malu dan pendiam saat dia samar-samar tersenyum. 
Xuxu tidak tahu bagaimana Wen Xinyi berhasil bertindak dengan sangat percaya diri. 
Bukankah Wen Xinyi sedikit takut jika Wen Xuxu akan menyampaikan apa yang dia katakan kepada Yan Rusheng?
Atau apa Wen Xinyi berpikir bahwa Yan Rusheng tidak akan memercayai kata-kata Xuxu?
Atau mungkin … Wen Xinyi tahu bahwa Wen Xuxu tidak akan menyebutkan apa pun?
"Xinyi, apa yang kamu pesan?" Ming Ansheng bertanya pada Wen Xinyi.
"Aku tidak yakin apa yang kamu sukai, jadi aku belum melakukannya," gumam Wen Xinyi pelan, dan dia menyerahkan menu kepada Yan Rusheng. "Presiden Yan, silahkan pesan."
Ketika dia melihat Yan Rusheng, wajahnya yang lembut langsung memerah.
Yan Rusheng mengintip menu, dan tanpa sepatah kata pun, dia mendorong menu itu ke arah Wen Xuxu.
Yan Rusheng mendorongku ke kedalaman penderitaan yang berapi-api! 
Xuxu meratap dalam-dalam di hatinya saat dia membalik menu. Dia meliriknya sebentar sebelum dia memberi tahu pelayan. "Dua set bistik klasik setengah matang. Untuk hidangan penutup, kami ingin yang tanpa krim atau selai." 
Dia memberikan menu ke Ming Ansheng setelah memesan.
"Tanpa keraguan, Xuxu masih orang yang paling mengerti kau." Ming Ansheng menerima menu saat ia dengan santai mengarahkan kata-kata pada Yan Rusheng. 
Tapi kata-kata yang tampaknya santai ini telah menyebabkan gelombang pasang naik di hati yang lain. 
Ya, Yan Rusheng sudah lama mengakui bahwa Xuxu adalah orang yang paling mengerti dia di dunia ini. 
Tetapi pemahaman Xuxu tentang dirinya mengesampingkan perasaan batin dan sentimen terhadap Xuxu. 
Jika Xuxu tahu, bagaimana dia akan bereaksi?


Wen Xuxu adalah seorang wanita ulet, berbakat, cerdas dan berani yang diasuh oleh keluarga Yan pada usia empat tahun ketika dia kehilangan kedua orang tuanya.

Dibesarkan untuk menjadi penerus konglomerat besar, Yan Rusheng adalah seorang pria penyendiri, cerdas dan sombong yang merupakan seorang bujangan paling dicari di ibu kota.

Meskipun tumbuh bersama, keduanya seperti saling memperlakukan dengan buruk. Wen Xuxu mengecap Yan Rusheng sebagai seorang yang berengsek dan penakluk wanita, sementara di mata Yan Rusheng, Wen Xuxu adalah seorang wanita pemarah.

Seiring waktu, mereka saling jatuh cinta, tetapi mereka tetap menyembunyikan perasaan mereka satu sama lain. Karena sebuah nasib, mereka dipaksa untuk menikah. Dan tidak diketahui oleh orang lain dan Yan Rusheng, Wen Xuxu telah menyembunyikan rahasia yang mendalam selama bertahun-tahun ....

Kata kunci: Kekasih masa kecil, Penakluk Wanita, Penyendiri, Belahan Jiwa, Pernikahan Paksa, Anak Yatim, Sekretaris

Adegan Manis: 

Tiba-tiba, Wen Xuxu mengulurkan tangannya untuk mencengkeram dan menarik pergelangan tangan Yan Rusheng dengan paksa.

Yan Rusheng tertangkap basah dan dia kehilangan pijakannya. Dia jatuh di tempat tidur dan kemudian napasnya melambat.

Tuan Muda Yan takut bahwa dia mungkin kehilangan kendali atas dirinya dan melakukan sesuatu pada Wen Xuxu ... wanita yang dibencinya. Oleh karena itu dia buru-buru mengangkat kepalanya. Tetapi dia belum sempat bergerak menjauh ketika Wen Xuxu mengulurkan tangan dan melingkarkannya ke leher Yan Rusheng. "Jangan pergi."

Ketika pikiran itu muncul, bahkan Shen Zhilie sendiri pun merasa sedikit ketakutan. Dia memperlambat langkahnya dan menoleh untuk menatap mata Ou Ming.
Pada saat itu, mata Ou Ming terlihat hampa, tidak fokus, dan kosong.
Alis Shen Zhilie bertaut sembari melambai-lambaikan dua buah jari di depan wajah Ou Ming dan bertanya, "Berapa jari ini?"
Ou Ming tampak terkejut saat mendengar pertanyaan itu. Dia langsung menjawab, "Lima."
Ketika Shen Zhilie mendengar itu, perasaan yang terus mengganggu bahwa Ou Ming berpura-pura buta itu menjadi semakin kuat. Shen Zhilie bertanya dengan curiga, "Bagaimana kau bisa tahu?"
"Orang bodoh mana yang akan melambai-lambaikan dua buah jari di depan orang buta?" Ou Ming bertanya.
Wajah Shen Zhilie berubah menjadi gelap menakutkan, dan membentak, "Kau memang berpura-pura buta!"
Sembari berbicara, Shen Zhilie terus memusatkan matanya pada wajah dan matanya Ou Ming, takut jika dirinya akan melewatkan detail sekecil apa pun.
Tapi, mata Ou Ming tetap terlihat tidak fokus. Menilai dari itu, dia tidak terlihat seperti orang yang dapat melihat.
Di bawah tatapan curiga Shen Zhilie, Ou Ming mulai tertawa dan bertanya, "Jadi, apa aku menebaknya dengan benar atau salah?"
Shen Zhilie tidak berbicara dan terus menatap wajah Ou Ming.
Ou Ming menaikkan alisnya dan bertanya, "Jangan bilang kau benar-benar sebodoh itu sehingga melambai-lambaikan dua buah jari?"
Shen Zhilie dibuat tak dapat berkata-kata. Dia berbalik dengan tidak nyaman dan menarik kedua jarinya kembali ke telapak tangannya kemudian mulai menarik Ou Ming ke restoran Kanton di sekitar sana.
Di belakang Shen Zhilie, di luar batas pandangnya, Ou Ming tersenyum pada dirinya sendiri dengan puas. Senyuman itu tipis dan sangat cepat.
Sebuah pikiran tiba-tiba terlintas di benak Shen Zhilie. Dia tiba-tiba menoleh dan menatap Ou Ming.
Ketika melihat bahwa Ou Ming tidak bereaksi sama sekali, Shen Zhilie memandang pria itu dan menariknya ke dalam sebuah restoran Sichuan.
Begitu mereka melewati pintu masuk, Ou Ming berhenti berjalan dan menahan Shen Zhilie lalu berkata, "Aku tidak mau makan makanan pedas."
"Bagaimana kau tahu?" Shen Zhilie memandang Ou Ming dengan penuh kemenangan. "Kau memang berpura-pura buta, bukan?"
Ou Ming menjawab, "Pasti ada masalah dengan hidungmu. Atau, apakah otakmu yang bermasalah? Baunya sangat jelas! Tidakkah bisakah kau mengetahuinya?"
Shen Zhilie tidak tahu apakah harus percaya pada Ou Ming atau tidak lalu mengendus-endus. Aroma itu memang menyengat. Shen Zhilie merasa tidak puas, tetapi dia dengan cepat menarik Ou Ming keluar dari restoran tersebut.
Setelah masuk ke dalam sebuah restoran lain bersama Shen Zhilie, Ou Ming dengan patuhnya duduk di meja yang telah diatur oleh Shen Zhilie. Pelayan segera menghidangkan teh panas untuk mereka dan meninggalkan buku menu di atas meja.
Yu Lili belum kembali. Shen Zhilie mengambil buku menu itu dan melemparkannya pada Ou Ming sambil berkata, "Pesan apa pun yang kau inginkan."
Ou Ming mengulurkan tangan dan menyentuh buku menu tersebut. Tak lama kemudian dia menggesernya ke samping. Tanpa perubahan fokus di matanya, Ou Ming bertanya dengan terus terang, "Restoran apa ini?"
"Kanton!" Shen Zhilie menurunkan matanya untuk melihat ke arah tangan Ou Ming. "Kau tidak bisa menciumnya kali ini?"
"Tempat ini bau cairan pembersih." kata Ou Ming.
Wajah Shen Zhilie memerah karena malu dan mengendus-endus. Itu memang benar.
Sambil mengambil buku menunya, Shen Zhilie bergumam pada dirinya sendiri, "Orang buta si*lan, hidungnya cukup tajam."
"Telingaku juga tajam. Berhentilah menghinaku." Ou Ming meletakkan tangannya di atas meja. Seolah-olah tidak menyadari bahwa ada secangkir teh panas tepat di depannya, dia menggerakkan tangannya di atas meja. Cangkir itu terbalik, menumpahkan seluruh isinya yang panas mendidih.


Di kehidupan sebelumnya, mereka telah menikah selama lima tahun. Pria itu merupakan segalanya untuknya, tetapi dia dibuang seperti sepasang sepatu usang.
Setelah kelahirannya kembali, dia memberi pria itu sebuah surat kontrak cerai terlebih dahulu—
“Bercerai setelah satu tahun, syarat-syarat kontrak tersebut adalah sebagai berikut: suami dan istri tidak boleh berbagi kamar atau tempat tidur. Keintiman adalah hal terlarang? "
Pria itu menaikkan alisnya.
Siapa yang tahu bahwa setelah dia mabuk pada suatu hari, sambil bersandar pada kepala tempat tidur, pria itu melabuhkan matanya yang dalam pada dirinya. "Kamu melanggar kontrak, Nyonya Li."

After the truck that driven by my brother in law disappears from our sight, we return to our house. We clean the utensils that used to cook the dish and also plates that I used to serve Ming Er and A Yun.
"Hubby, after our food truck done from its modification, we're ready for business"
"Yes, wifey. You happy about that?"
"Um, working together with the person I love always make me happy"
"How sweet is that…here's the rewards"
I grab her slim waist and give her a passionate kiss. We kissed for several minutes before letting go each other lips.
"Wifey, are you taking A Yun to work with us too?"
"Um, if she always closes with my brother I hope they will marry one day later. Besides, I want people I can trust to work with my beloved husband"
"Hahaha…are you jealous if I work with other women, hmm?"
"Of course I will jealous, my husband is my only man in the world. I will not any other woman steal you from me"
"Mmm…you should not worry about that my beloved wife, you're the only woman I love in this world. I'm willing to wait a thousand years only to be with you"
Well, I really wait thousand years before I can be with her again, so basically I'm not lying to her right?
"Oh, hubby….that really touch my heart. When you say you willing to wait thousand years, somehow my heart feel warm when hearing it"
I give her a hug to confirm her my feeling, Ming Er also hugs me tightly like won't let me go from her arms. We hugging each other for couple minutes before Ming Er start talking again
"Hubby…."
"Yes, wifey?"
"Do you believe reincarnation?"
"I don't know…how about you?"
"I don't believe that. I believe after people die their soul goes to heaven. But I'm starting to think and feel that if that reincarnation really happens, maybe in the past we also husband and wife"
"Hmm…what in the past, let it be the past. Even we are husband and wife in the past, aren't we also husband and wife now? And our happiness in the future, isn't that what are we looking for?"
"Um, hubby right…our happiness in the future…it should we fighting for from now"
"Yes, that's right. Let's work hard for our future and our child too, wifey"
"Thanks, hubby. Until our food truck is done, what are we going to do from now?"
"Ah, let's decide on the menu first then thinking the sales area. We need to plan where we will going to sell our food to the people"
"Wait, I get my laptop and check on the internet about the place around here that has many people gathering"
"Okay"
Ming Er goes upstairs to take her laptop and after she returns with her laptop, we start to search any places that have a potential customer for our food truck.
"Hubby, if we just sell our food in our town, there are not many places where people gathering. We should also think to sell in nearby town too"
"Um, but aren't we should also see the customer response first for our food truck?"
"Right, but if we are not spread our coverage, only people around He Xing town know about our food truck"
"Any good place to get customer around here?"
"Oh, there's some good place around here. Sanxingdui Museum, for example, there must be a lot visitor there especially in weekend and holidays"
"Hmm, that's good. And that place still around here, in Guanghan not far from He Xing"
"If necessary we can sell our food in Chengdu city hubby, is not far from Guanghan, only 40 kilometers away"
"Hmm…Baoguang Temple and Chengdu panda base also a good place to sell our food"
"Yes, hubby right. There's 1st ring road that connected that places with our city. Isn't that great hubby?"
"Um, but can we sell food there? Are we not get trouble with authorities there?"
"Hihi...hubby, we have the permit from the department of trade and industry, there's should be no problem with that"
"We should copy that permit and bring along with the food truck just in case"
"Ah yes, hubby right. If we bring that it would lessen any trouble later"
"And how about the menu? Are we going with a fixed menu or change the menu every day?"
"If we change the menu every day, the customer who impressed with yesterday menu and wants to buy again will be disappointed, but if we not changing the menu, the customer will be bored"
"Let's change the fixed menu every 2 days, and special menu change every day"
"Um, that's sound good. How many menus that hubby already made for this food truck?"
"Let's see. I've made Sweet Sour chicken when we just married, Dan Dan noodles, Beijing Kouya roll, xiaolongbao, fuqi feipian, Crispy Salmon with Ginger Soy Sauce, Gan Bian Si Ji Dou, meringues for your friends, the one I just made now, and what else?"
"Hubby, let's make with something regular first, like fried rice and noodles first, with some special dish on certain days"
"Alright, we can change the fried rice ingredient somehow, like Monday is chicken fried rice, Tuesday is seafood fried rice etc"
"That's good too hubby until our food truck done, let me see your other creation then. Something that you haven't made before. Something that cheap but delicious"
"No problem. So, how much we going to sell our food?"
"Mmm….as long as we sell cheaper than that Bao chain restaurant, I'm sure we will have many customers, hubby. How about promotion price for the first time? we can adjust the price later?"
"Sure, but how much?"
"Regular menu 30 yuan each and special menu 40 yuan, on promotion price we give 5 yuan discount. How about that?"
"Good! That's an affordable price I guess. I can't wait until our truck is done"
"Mmm….i can see hubby passion in cooking. When I saw hubby cooking in the kitchen, somehow my heart feel warm. It's a lovely view in my eyes"
Hearing what Ming Er said is make my heart also feel warm. In my previous life, my wife also always accompany me in the kitchen when I'm cooking, sometimes she also helps me prepare the ingredient. I feel grateful to have the second chance to be with my wife again in the second life of mine.

"Ling'r, care to explain why Robbie told me you skipped your lectures today?" 

I was in my dad's office, or my future-office I think.

I looked at dad sheepishly. 'Darn Robbie! Why would you snitch on me!' I muttered under my breath.

"Ummmm, hahaha, dad! Why would Robbie tell you that? I didn't do anything at all! I was in every lecture, quietly copying notes," I grinned.

"Don't you dare and try to wiggle your way out of this. You know that I'll only allow you to take part in my business once you're qualified!" he roared.

"Well, if you realized I didn't want to participate in your business in the first place! It was you who forced me into this, dad!" I confidently answered.

"Ling'er how dare you to talk back! This is outrageous! I can't have my daughter being so disrespectful to her elders! You will have extensive courses with your counselor to improve your attitude!" dad fumed.

"Dad! I don't want to go there again. The counselor treats me as if I have some mental problem! But clearly, I don't at all!" I screamed.

At that moment, Robbie walked in with a stack of files. "Boss, these are-" he tried saying when he saw me. "Hello, Miss."

"Robbie! Why did you snitch on me? Now, dad wants to send me back to that darn counselor again! You know how much I hate being in there!" I wailed.

"You! Ling'er, why are you blaming Robbie now? Clearly, you're at fault!" Dad bellowed.

"B-but-" I tried defending myself.

"That's it. Get out of my office! I will schedule a counseling session for you!"

"Fine!" I yelled and stomped away.

I was about to dramatically slam the door shut when I heard Robbie.

"BOSS! Are you okay?" 

Puzzled, I rushed into the office again.

Only to be stopped by his secretary.

"Young Miss, please follow me." She smiled.
"Hold on, where did you come from?" I questioned. If my mind wasn't playing tricks with me, I clearly remember that she was nowhere in dad's office.

"I was always in the office, young miss."

I was bewildered. There was another person in dad's office? I know I'm very oblivious to my surroundings, but I never knew I could be that less attentive.

"But I've never seen you in there, Miss-" I eyed her nametag. 

"Fang."

"Well, maybe I'm that unnoticeable. Anyway, the CEO asked me to take you home. You have another hour before your counseling session starts."

"Darn. I thought dad was joking! Miss Fang, please don't take me to the counselor. I promise I won't rat you out if dad asks," I whispered and looked at her pleadingly.

"Nice try, young miss. However, I take my job very seriously. Let's go!"

"Oh, look who's here!" the man smugged.
"F*ck you, Edison. I was forced to come here," I huffed in anger and immediately sat down on a black leather couch with my legs crossed.

"Now, now. What have I said about cussing in my office, Ling'er?" Edison smirked.

"Ugh, whatever. Let's just get this over with."

Edison took a seat on a wooden chair located in front of me.

"Alright, this time, you have been skipping your lectures often. Is something going on?"

"Well, I find this business thing too difficult for me to comprehend," I answered quietly as I twiddled with my thumbs.

"Hmm, that's unusual. The Ling'er I know would never give up. Are you being bullied in college?"

"Haha, what a funny joke! Me? Getting bullied?" I laughed while swatting my hands all over. "If anyone dares to even threaten me, I'll just crush them into pieces," I shrugged.

"If you're not getting bullied, then why would you just run out of your classes like that? " Edison patiently asked.

"I told you, I don't understand anything taught by the lecturer." 

"Are you sure? You could've just asked the lecturer about that topic instead of ditching class so abruptly."

"Edison, you know I would ask teachers about anything. B-but, that incident, is q-quite traumatizing," I replied, my voice getting softer and my words getting incoherent.

That incident was something I wish I could remove from my brain. That incident crumbled my entire world. That incident engulfed me in the darkness for a period of time. 

"Sweetheart, that incident is in the past. That despicable scum has even gotten his punishment. You should let go of the dark spot in your memories," Edison said as he gently patted my head.

"H-how? There are still nights when I have those nightmares. P-plus, you only told me to forgive but not to forget."

Edison looked at me. "Yi Ling, how about we try a new type of therapy. I'll give you an empty journal, and you jot down your feelings into the book. Whether you're over the moon, or you're in the depths of despair, you should still write in it."

"You want me to keep a diary? Edison! You know I don't like keeping diaries!" I said as I rubbed my eyes.

"No no, not a diary. It's a feeling journal. It contains only your feelings and not secrets. Don't you like writing poems? You can always portray your feelings in the form of poems as well," Edison soothingly pacified me.

"B-but I-" I tried reasoning with Edison, only to be interrupted.

"Ling'er, if you keep refusing, I will increase your counseling sessions with me," Edison threatened.

I was baffled. How dare he do this to me? I am his client!

"Fine. But if it doesn't work in three weeks' time, I'll haunt you in your sleep and make you an insomniac," I gave in.

"Wh-who are you?"

"I'm your husband."

"WHAT? Husband? I just turned twenty yesterday!"

"I know, wifey. Now, come here and be a good girl."

"I know karate and taekwando! If you come any closer, I will break your bones!"

"Do you wish to be a widow? My wifey is so violent."

A/N : First draft = Lots of mistakes

Alas singko na ng hapon. Dismissal na ng mga mag-aaral sa St. Agnes Medical School. Excited na excited na si Marvin na makita ulit ang magandang babae kanina.

"Pare, kanina ka pa ngiti nang ngiti ah. Natitimang ka na ba?" sabay hithit ni Edison sa sigarilyo. "May hinihintay ka ba? Kanina ka pa linga ng linga diyan." Tanong ng kaibigan niya habang may lumalabas pang usok galing sa bibig nito.

"Oo pare iyong kinuwento ka sa'yong babae. Iyong magandang bumili sa akin ng mga diyaryo kanina." Bakas ang kasiyahan sa mukha ni Marvin, "Victoria Isabelle E. Velez..." sambit niya ulit sa pangalan ng babae.

"Mahigit sampung beses mo nang inulit ang pangalan ng chicks mo pre ah. Para ka ng isang legit na timang diyan." Sabay tawa ni Edison at itinapon sa kalsada ang kaniyang upos na sigarilyo.

"Tumahimik ka nga diyan pre, paparating na siya oh. Papunta na siya rito." Sabi niya sa kaibigan. At oo nga papunta na sa kaniyang puwesto si Victoria. Ngunit, may kasama itong lalaking nakaakbay pa sa kaniya. Kung titingnan ang kaniyang kasamang lalaki eh di maitatanggi na galing ito sa isang mayamang angkan. Matangkad, matikas ang tindig, mestizo, bahagyang makulot ang buhok na bagay din naman sa mukha nito habang siya eh medyo may pagka maitim ang balat dahil na rin sa araw-araw ay bilad siya sa init, medyo mahaba na rin ang kaniyang buhok at balbas dahil minsan nakakalimutan na niyang magpagupit sa barbero at mag-ahit, matangkad din naman siya pero kung ikokompara siguro siya sa mga type ni Victoria eh wala talaga siyang panama. Wala siyang maipagmamalaki.

"Uy ano ba 'yan pre, taken na pala 'yung chicks mo oh. Kung makaakbay naman 'tong kumag na 'to akala siguro eh aagawin 'yung girlpren niya." Sabi ni Edison sabay dumura sa kalsada.

"Huwag ka ngang maingay pre baka marinig ka pa eh kita mo naman na malapit na sila dito sa puwesto ko." Saway niya sa kaibigan.

Nasa tapat na ng kaniyang puwesto si Victoria at ang boyfriend nito.

"Excuse me po kuya, kukunin ko na po iyong binili kong mga diyaryo kanina." Magalang na sabi ni Victoria sabay ngumiti ito sa kaniya. Ginantihan niya rin ng ngiti ang babae.

"Ay, oo ito na miss byutipol. Inilagay ko na sa supot para 'di na kayo mahirapang bitbitin 'yan." Sabay ibinigay niya sa babae ang isang malaking supot na naglalaman ng mga diyaryo.

"Give it to me babe." Tiningnan ng masama si Marvin ng boyfriend ni Victoria. 

"Aba't inaano ka ba ng kaibigan ko? Ba't ang sama ng tingin mo sa kaniya? Kupal ka pala eh." Susugurin na sana ni Edison ang lalaki pero pinigilan siya ni Marvin.

"Don't you dare call my girlfiend again like that dude." Matalim siyang tinitigan nito sa mata. Nakipagtagisan din siya ng tingin sa boyfriend ng babae.

"Here we go again Ken. Stop it!" Suway ni Victoria sa kaniyang boyfriend. "Let's go." Hinila na ni Victoria ang kaniyang boyfriend palayo sa puwesto ni Marvin. Lumingon siya kay Marvin at namutawi sa kaniyang bibig ang salitang 'sorry'. Ginantihan niya lang ito ng tipid na ngiti at pagkatapos ay tinanguan niya ito.

"Ano pre reresabakan natin ang kumag na 'yun? Ang yabang-yabang eh akala mo kung sino." Sabay hithit na naman ni Edison ng sigarilyo.

"Huwag na pre. Pabayaan mo na ang kupal na 'yun."

"Sus, pinapapa-iral mo na naman ang pagiging mabait mo pre." Sabay buga nito ng usok.

"Hindi kasi ako sanay pre na maging marahas sa ibang tao. Kita mo naman pamilya ko diba. Iyong nanay at tatay ko mga relax lang, kalma lang parang 'di marunong magalit. Sabi pa ni nanay 'Kapag binato ka nang bato, batuhin mo ng tinapay.' Ganyan kasi kami pinalaki pre." 

"Oo nga naman pre. Mabuti pa ermat mo 'di warfreak. Ang ermat ko naman kabaliktaran ng ermat mo. Talak ng talak kahit wala ka namang ginagawang masama. Kaya nga naisipan kong lumayo 'nung naging kami ng ex ko." Sabay tinapakan ni Edison ang naupos na niyang sigarilyo. "Hindi rin ako magtatagal dito sa atin pre. May mga pangarap din kasi ako."

"Saan ka na naman pupunta pre?" Tanong ni Marvin sa kaibigan habang inabutan niya ng sukli ang bumili sa kaniya.

"Mag-aabroad ako pre. Nag-apply ako bilang welder sa Japan. Magagamit ko na rin 'yung natapos ko sa TESDA. Naghihintay nalang ako ng tawag ng agency." Malungkot na napangiti si Edison pagkatapos niya itong sabihin. "Ito sana 'yun eh, ito 'yung sorpresa ko para sa kaniya. Unti-unti na sana naming matutupad ang mga pangarap naming dalawa pero anong ginawa niya? Naghanap siya kaagad ng iba." Malungkot na saad ni Edison sa kaniyang kaibigang si Marvin habang pinagmamasdan ang picture ng dati niyang kasintahan. "Mahal ko pa rin 'tong babaeng 'to eh kaya lang ginawa niya akong gago. Mga hayop." May halong galit na ang kaniyang boses at nangingilid ang kaniyang luha.

Hinawakan ni Marvin ang balikat ng kaniyang kaibigan para i-comfort ito. 

"Ibig sabihin lang 'nun pre 'di ka sapat para sa kaniya. Kung mahal ka talaga ng ex mo hinding-hindi ka niya magagawang saktan ng ganyan. Kung mahal ka talaga ng isang tao susuportahan ka niya sa lahat ng mga ginagawa mo sa hirap man o ginhawa." Napayuko si Edison sa sinabi ni Marvin sa kaniya. "Huwag kang mag-alala pre darating din ang babaeng para sa'yo. Iyong tatanggapin ka kung sino ka at tatanggapin 'yung buong pagkatao mo. Iyong babaeng, ikaw lang sapat na." Narinig ni Marvin ang pagsinghot ng kaibigan. "Makakalimot ka rin pre. Empi lang katapat niyan." Tuloy-tuloy pa rin sa pagsinghot si Edison. "Iiyak mo lang lahat pre pero pwede ba pre doon ka na lang sa bahay niyo umiyak ng ganyan. Tumutulo pa 'yung uhog mo eh at pinagtitinginan na rin tayo ng mga tao." Biro niya sa kaibigan. "Oh ito tisyu, punasan mo 'yang mukha mo." Inabot din naman ito ng kaniyang kaibigan.

"Salamat pre ah." Sabay punas ni Edison sa kaniyang mukha at suminga pa ito.

"Kadiri ka pre." Biro pa ni Marvin sa kaniyang kaibigan. Napatawa nalang silang dalawa.

"Edisoooooooon! Halika na rito sa karenderya, tulungan mo na akong magligpit dito." Sigaw na naman ng nanay ni Edison.

"Alis na ako pre. Magtatalak na naman ermat ko nito. Bukas naman. Bye!" dali-daling tumayo si Edison sa kaniyang upuan at tuluyan ng umalis sa puwesto ng kaibigan.

"Alas sais y medya na pala." Nag-unat-unat muna si Marvin bago niya iniligpit ang kaniyang mga paninda para siya'y makauwi na rin. 

Tulak-tulak ni Marvin ang kaniyang kariton sa isang madilim na eskinita. Sanay na naman siya ritong dumaan kasi kilala na siya ng mga tambay dito kaya hindi na siya kinakabahan. Habang tahimik niyang tinutulak ang kaniyang kariton ay may narinig siyang boses ng isang lalaking galit na galit.

"Ilang beses ko bang sasabihin sa'yo ha na 'stop flirting with another men!"

Magpapatuloy na sana si Marvin sa pagtutulak ng kaniyang kariton nang narinig niya ang isang pamilyar na boses, hindi niya lang sigurado kung kanino. 

"Anong flirting ba ang sinasabi mo diyan, ang hirap kasi sa'yo lahat nalang ng bagay pinagseselosan mo." Depensa naman ng babae sa galit na lalaki. "Alam mo? Mabuti pang magbreak na tayo. Nasasakal na kasi ako sa relasyong 'to. You're a control freak!" 

Naki-usyoso si Marvin sa dalawang taong nag-aaway. Papunta siya sa direkson ng mga 'to pero nagkubli siya malapit sa isang malaking poste para 'di siya makita. Hindi niya masyadong makita ang mukha nang nag-aaway dahil medyo madilim.

"You can't do this to me babe! I'm sorry"

"Babe mo mukha mo. Kainin mo 'yang sorry mo. Parati nalang kitang pinapatawad pero 'di ka naman nagbabago. Lahat nalang nang walang kwentang bagay pinagseselosan mo. We're done and it's final." Naaninag ni Marvin ang anino ng babae, paalis n sana ito ng bigla itong hinablot ng lalaki.

"You can't do this to me! You know I love you so much kaya ako nagkakaganito!"

"Ano ba! Bitiwan mo ako! Nasasaktan ako Ken!" sigaw ng babae. 

Biglang pumasok sa isip ni Marvin ang pangalang Ken. Ito ang pangalan ng boyfriend ni Victoria. Kaya siguro pamilyar sa kaniya ang boses ng babae kasi ito ay si... 

"Ano ba! Tigilan mo 'yang ginagawa mo Ken! Bastos ka! Ahhhhhh! Tulong!" malakas na sigaw ng babae habang umiiyak. Pinupunit na kasi ng lalaki ang kaniyang damit. "Tama na Ken please!" pagmamakaawa pa ng babae.

"You're mine Vicky! Only mine!" Tila walang naririnig ang lalaki. Hinahalikan na niya ng marahas ang babae at pinupunit niya rin ang damit nito. "You're gonna pay for doing this to me b*tch!"

"Gago ka!" malakas na sigaw ni Marvin habang tumatakbo papunta sa direksyon ng dalawa. Sinalubong niya nang malakas na suntok sa mukha ang lalaki. Napahiga sa sahig ang lalaki sa lakas ng suntok ni Marvin. Dali-dali niyang hinubad ang kaniyang jacket at ibinigay ito sa babaeng gutay-gutay na ang suot na damit. Pagkatapos niya itong mai-abot sa babae eh hinawakan siya sa balikat ng lalaki at dinambahan siya ng suntok. Mabuti nalang at nailagan niya ito agad at ginantihan niya ng suntok sa tagiliran ang lalaki. Nasapul niya ang lalaki at napaluhod ito sa sahig. "You're gonna pay for this Vicky pati na rin ikaw na pakialamero ka!" banta ng lalaki habang dumadaing ito sa sakit. 

Sinamantala nina Marvin at Victoria ang panghihina ni Ken. "Kaya mo bang tumakbo?" tanong niya sa babaeng naginginig pa rin sa takot. Tumango lang ito. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ng babae at hinila na ito papalayo sa bayolente nitong kasintahan.

Tumakbo sila papalayo at dinala ni Marvin si Victoria sa kanilang bahay. 

Langit siya, lupa ako...
	
Si Victoria ay galing sa isang mayamang pamilya habang si Marvin naman ay mulat sa kahirapan. Hindi naging hadlang sa kanilang pag-iibigan ang 
 estado nila sa buhay. Tutol ang pamilya ng babae sa kanilang relasyon sa kadahilanang hindi nababagay ang lalaki sa kanilang anak. Ipinaglaban ng dalawa ang kanilang pag-ibig sa abot ng kanilang makakaya. Ngunit... isang kagimbal-gimbal na trahedya ang naganap kung kaya't sila'y nawalay sa isa't isa. Magiging sila pa kaya hanggang sa huli? Magiging sapat kaya ang kanilang pag-ibig para sila'y magkabalikang muli?

As the gate opened, it revealed a spacious courtyard. There were seven to eight people standing around a table discussing something. Upon hearing the noise, all of them turned around at the same time, revealing expressions of shock and happiness once they saw Yalina.
"Second brother!" Yalina rushed over, and tears started filling up in her eyes.
Han Jin and the others, who were following behind, couldn't help but look at each other. They never would have thought that the cold Yalina actually had such an impulsive side.
Amongst them, there was a young man wearing a black magic robe who looked the most excited. He gently hugged Yalina and loudly laughed. "Haha! I knew it you would be alright. It's impossible for those garbage to be able to hurt our talented girl!"
"Second brother!" Yaline choked. "How come you're here?"
"Of course I had to come! How can I not come after what has happened?!" The young man in the black magic robe became even angrier as he explained himself. "I can't believe Father actually kept it from me. If it wasn't because of Gail who silently told me, I wouldn't have known about it until now!"
"Uncle Gail?" Yalina stunned.
" You… How come you're here?!" After seeing the old man, Yalina's expression became even more surprised, and she even used a respectful form of speech. From what she remembered, Majordomo Gail had never left her father's side; he was like her father's most faithful shadow.
"Second master has never traveled far alone, and I just couldn't rest assured. So I decided to secretly come along with him." The old man helplessly smiled.
"Yalina, Let me introduce you." The young man in the black magic robe moved slightly to the side. "This is Nildak, and this is Milon; they are both..."
"You're from the Eagle Clan?" Actually, even without Edison's introduction, Yalina could already recognize them from the almost identical customised magic armor.
" Yes, Miss," both the soldiers replied respectfully.
"Haha, the truth is, we used to be enemies." The young man in black rob laughed and smacked one of the soldiers on the shoulder twice. "Father had me on house arrest, and these two were responsible for watching over me. They didn't cut me any slack; they wouldn't let me out no matter how hard I tried to convince them. However, when I found out about what happened to you, I patiently talked to them for an entire night. Haha, under my righteous persuasion, they were willing to come to Isolated Cliff City with me!"
" Second Brother… you…" Yalina sighed helplessly.
"What's wrong?" The young man in the black robe was taken aback.
Han Jin and the others were carefully observing them. The Majordomo named Gail, along with the two soldiers, had a graceful and poised aura, along with a look of arrogance albeit humble. It was obvious that they aren't ordinary people. These kinds of characters would actually be convinced with a few words and bear the risk of being accused of betraying the Duke of Solomon, leaving their families behind, to follow a young man all the way here to Isolated Cliff City? That is impossible! That would be a provocation to the authority of the Duke of Solomon, and may even be considered as a subversion!
It would be too naive to be complacent about these kinds of things. In the beginning, Han Jin and the others were a little confused; why was there such a drastic difference between the Duke of Solomon's attitude toward his two sons? But now, the picture seemed clearer; it would be that both of the sons were completely different in the ways in which they dealt with things, be it their temperament or their wisdom. Well, at the least, the Duke of Solomon did not consider his second son to be qualified to inherit his assets.
"I don't want to talk to you!" Yalina rolled her eyes at the young man and turned towards Majordomo Gail. "Uncle Gail…"
The old man shuddered and hurriedly waved his hands. "Miss, please don't do this; just directly call me by my name."
"Uncle Gail, why are you so nervous?" Yalina blinked. "Are you hiding the good stuff?"
Upon hearing what Yalina said, Gail appeared even more anxious and forcefully squeezed a smile. "Miss, you know how little of a fortune I have. How could I have any of the good stuff?"
Edison laughed and said, "Stop being so hard on Chief Gail. You wouldn't be able to imagine how worried we were on the way here. Thank God you're back. If you hadn't come back, we would have entered Tarsaha Mountain to find you."
"It should be that it's fortunate I held you back, or else, Young Master would have directly rushed into the mountains." Although Edison had helped him out earlier, Gail hadn't really appreciated it.
Edison looked awkward and said, "Well, I was just worried."
Yalina was apparently taking the side of her brother, and held on to her brother's arm while wrinkling her nose at Gail. "This just proves that he cares about me."
The jaws of Han Jin and the others hit the floor as they stared at Yalina. Who would have thought that Yalina had this cheerful side to her. Looking at how Yalina was snuggling up to Edison, even Moxinke couldn't believe his own eyes. Was this still the iceberg magus that they knew?
In fact, this was actually pretty normal. Yalina was an iceberg beauty in the academy because she hated the harassment she would receive from others. But if she was to also wear a mask in front of her own family, it would be too boring to live. Plus, she was the pride of the sky; other than her father, who was always too far to reach, and a hypocritical big brother, everyone around her loved and took care of her. She was surrounded by her blood-related family, and behind her were her partners through life and death. There wasn't anything for her to hide. 
Edison's gaze fell on Han Jin and asked Yalina, "Are these your friends?"
Yalina then only remembered that Han Jin and the others had been behind her the entire time. Her face turned red as she remembered the scene that had happened before this. She even couldn't look at HanJin's direction and told Edison, "If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be able to see Second Brother anymore."
Edison's face instantly became serious, and he saluted to Han Jin and the rest. "Thank you to each of you for taking care of my sister along the way. If there's anything for which I can be of help in the future, just let me know, and I will definitely be there!"
Han Jin smiled. Instead of returning the gesture, he just waved his hands and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Since we're friends, it's unnecessary for you to say this."
Han Jin's attitude seem normal to the men of the Reapers Mercenary Team. It would only be possible for a dragon slayer to return the gesture even though they were the elders of the Capital of Elements. Moxinke and the others, who had always been with Han Jin, along with the soldiers of the Mercenary of Red Vanguard, had long been accustomed to Han Jin's strength and did not realize that there was something wrong.
However, Edison's men were furious. Firstly, they didn't understand how Han Jin had played a major role in recent developments. Secondly, Han Jin was too young, and it was impossible for anyone to give him enough importance.
 A man with a fighter badge coldly said, "Such arrogance! Do you even know who's standing right in front of you? Young master is the..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his mouth was hurriedly covered by someone next to him. It was the person who they had met last time, the dean of God's Language Magic Academy, Scott.
Scott was so scared that he had cold sweats. Han Jin's unbridled and mysterious little fireball had left an indelible impression in his mind. If this dragon slayer had been angered, who knows what could have happened?!
Edison glanced at the fighter and said to Han Jin, "This group of lads has been spoiled by us, just ignore him."
Edison's personality was usually one who was carefree, but it was especially so when it was in front of his sister's lifesaver. He didn't even care about whether or not Han Jin returned the gesture. The thing that he was curious about was the flustered look on Scott's face, but now wasn't a good time to ask.
Han Jin smiled without saying anything. Just when everyone thought that the page had been flipped, Yalina suddenly stared at the fighter and shouted, "Who are you to speak when even my Second Brother hasn't mentioned a word!"
Was Yalina angry? Edison scratched his head and felt even more confused. Although he knew that his sister had always had a temper, this was the first time that he had seen her being so protective towards an outsider.
The fighter's face went red and pale, but he couldn't say anything. Among the people there, he was only responsible for running errands - almost similar to a servant; the fact that he didn't immediately faint at the sight of Yalina's sudden outburst already took a lot of perseverance.
"Forget it Yalina. It's not a big deal," Han Jin softly said.
Both Edison and Gail's hearts shrank at the same time. They knew that whenever Yalina was angry, the only thing they could do was to keep quiet. If they ever tried to talk her out of if, it would be like adding oil to a burning fire. However, at this moment, the most shocking thing happened.
Yalina unexpectedly turned her head and snorted. "Lucky for you." Then, she raised a smile and said, "Second brother, hand over your magic crystals!"
"Oh." Edison subconsciously took out magic crystals from his space ring as he was still confused about how his sister had suddenly become so obedient. But then he soon realized that something was wrong. "Why do you need these magic crystals for? I don't have any high-end ones, so these are useless to you."
Yalina rolled her eyes at Edison. "How would you know if they're useless or not?" Edison was also a magician. Even without much power, his status was still there. There were at least dozens of colorful magical crystals that were taken out. Among them, there were a few of them that were either seventh or eighth-grade magic crystals floating in Edison's hand for Yalina to choose.
After a while, Yalina unhappily said, "Second Brother, why are there so few fifth-grade magic crystals?"
Edison became even more depressed. "Why would I be carrying around so many fifth-grade magic crystals?"
Yalina turned her head to Gail and said, "Uncle Gail..."
Gail immediately placed a small sachet with magic crystals on the table. "It's all here, but I don't have many fifth-grade crystals left as well."
"Why do you need fifth-grade magic crystals?" Edison asked out of curiosity. This sister of his had never even cared about seventh or eighth-grade magic crystals. Why did she suddenly take on such a large interest in fifth-grade magic crystals?
Moxinke, Cessacioun and the rest who were standing at the side looked at Han Jin with a weird look; even Sunier glared at Han Jin, her eyes showing that the situation was self-explanatory. As Han Jin noticed everyone's gaze on him, he could only smile to himself. Since when did this girl start to worry about his affairs? As he thought about it, he couldn't help but look at Sunier. He was confronted by Sunier's smile, but her eyes were not smiling.


One of the few self-cultivator who exist in this modern world; due to an unfortunate event, completely destroyed his body in an explosion. Using all his effort to save his primordial spirit, he ended up in an strange magical world and had to start all over again. From a fallen aristocrat to the Warlord of Chaos, this can no longer be summarise as legendary; this is the life of the God of War.
