章節 425: Side-Story Part One

Four years later...

"Wait, wait, let me get this straight." Yang Yulong drew out with a bewildered look on his face, "You don't think the white gold band is a pretty little collar?" He stared at his older brother as if the man walked out of an alien spaceship in a gray suit. Then his scrutinizing glance shifted to Chen Gaonan and Huo Qiudong, "You guys don't think the same?"

Huo Qiudong paused his meticulous stirring of the iced peach tea. For the briefest second, the glaring sun nearly blinded Yang Yulong when he abruptly glanced up and nodded towards the black corporate tie Yang Yulong was wearing. "Isn't that tie a collar to capitalism?"

"And isn't that Patek Philippe watch you're wearing a collar to capitalism?" Yang Yulong snapped back, adjusting the annoying thing strangling his neck.

"YOU'RE a collar to capitalism."

"And you're a leash I'm going to tug."

I've finally returned from the dead! I'm sorry for the long delay in the short stories T_T. I'll be frank and honest, the reason for the delay was a lack of ideas.

Thus, after contemplating for a while, I decided to do short-stories instead since epilogue seemed too definite of an ending! There will be 2 more parts to this current short story, but there might be more short stories in the future! The 2nd and 3rd part will roll out some time this week~

In the meantime, it would mean the world to me if you could check out my new fantasy-romance novel: The Marked Phoenix! Here's the synposis:

"If the price to pay for our love is death, then this world will be a battlefield. If I am given a lifetime with you, I'll bargain for eternity. If you want a kingdom, I will conquer this world until you are their only Queen. And the only thing you have to do is stay by my side."

She was Heaven's favored daughter. And he was the reason she was banished.
