Incurable Chapter 68 She Has Talent (2)

The Whole World Once everything was ready, Liu Anzhi changed costumes. Even dressed in coarse cloth with her hair braided, the little girl still somehow looked fresh and ethereal. She listened carefully to her mother’s instructions. The moment the director called action, her expression immediately changed. Tears instantly gathered in her eyes. The sight of such a tiny child looking on the verge of tears made everyone around them suck in a breath. Even Mu Wan froze for a moment. “Mother~” Liu Anzhi called. Mu Wan came back to herself and immediately entered character. Mother and daughter completed the entire scene in a single take. The instant they finished, the director called cut. Liu Anzhi immediately transformed from the obedient, sensible little girl in the scene back into a child who loved acting spoiled. Tears still clung to her eyelashes. Yet she was already smiling. Her eyes were crystal clear inside their reddened rims. She stretched out both arms. “Mommy, carry me.” It was he...

Incurable Chapter 62 My Wife Hasn’t Had Dinner Yet (2)

My Wife Hasn’t Had Dinner Yet By the time they arrived at Lin Wei’s house, it was already dark. November nights carried a slight chill. Mu Wan wore a coat. She rang the bell. Lu Feng opened the door. He did not look well either. Mu Wan still had no idea what had happened. She only asked, “Where’s Lin Wei?” “In the bedroom.” Lu Feng knew how close Mu Wan and Lin Wei were. The moment he saw her, some of the tension in his eyes eased. He looked exhausted. There were even red veins in his eyes. But now that Mu Wan had arrived, he probably believed Lin Wei would calm down more quickly. If Lu Feng looked this bad, Lin Wei could not possibly be much better. Liu Qianxiu remained downstairs. Mu Wan hurried upstairs. Lin Wei’s bedroom door was tightly closed. Mu Wan knocked. “Lin Wei?” Footsteps sounded inside. Lin Wei came over and opened the door. The moment Mu Wan saw her, she finally relaxed slightly. Lin Wei’s face was pale, but otherwise she looked all right. Mu Wan had barely finished thi...

Incurable Chapter 62 My Wife Hasn’t Had Dinner Yet (1)

Back Home After spending a week in Finland, Mu Wan and Liu Qianxiu flew to Tasmania, Australia, for the second week of their honeymoon. By November, the Southern Hemisphere was gradually entering summer, and the weather was at its most pleasant. Mu Wan and Liu Qianxiu stayed in a coastal villa on the island. The weather was perfect for sunbathing, so Mu Wan went outside almost every day to lie in the sun for a while. Her skin had darkened slightly, taking on a faint honey-colored glow that made her look especially healthy. Liu Qianxiu, on the other hand, could sit in the sun with her every day without even applying sunscreen, yet his complexion remained cool and pale. He still looked like some immortal who lived in a divine temple and had never been exposed to sunlight in his life. They had enjoyed themselves so much abroad that Mu Wan still had trouble pulling her mind back to ordinary life after returning home. After landing, Liu Qianxiu took her to Xu Xingkong’s house to pick up the...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 640

~ Liu Liang is the Beijiang Royal Family ~ Palace banquets continued one after another, and it was not until the sixth day of the first month that Mu Yunyao finally had the chance to leave the palace again. Ni Yun Fang had opened its doors early that morning. Even on New Year’s Day, customers kept coming without pause. Mu Yunyao entered through the back door and headed straight upstairs, without drawing anyone’s attention. Liu Liang had been waiting in the room since early morning. When he saw her arrive, he hurried forward and bowed. “This subordinate greets Master.” “No need for ceremony. How are things with Qi Ming?” Though Wei Jiu had been relaying messages to her in the palace, hearing the news firsthand made her feel more at ease. “Reporting to Master, Qi Ming is safe for the time being. He has also sent word that Jin Wang has already begun contacting the Beijiang people. The letter Master arranged has already had its effect.” When Liu Liang first read the letter, he felt uneasy....

~ The Mantis or the Oriole? ~ Yue Wang gently tucked the loose strands of hair behind Mu Yunyao’s ear. Seeing a faint smudge of dark makeup at the edge of her brow, the smile in his eyes deepened. Mu Yunyao froze for a moment, then remembered their earlier playful moment. She quickly covered her face and rushed to the dressing table. Seeing her smudged eyebrow in the mirror, she groaned in embarrassment, forgetting all about the Beijiang issue. “Fourth Master! My makeup is ruined—why didn’t you remind me?” Yue Wang walked over and gently took her hands away from her face. “What does it matter? Yao’er is naturally beautiful without makeup, breathtaking with it, and even when it’s smudged, you’re still captivating.” Meeting such a wonderful girl was a blessing earned over several lifetimes. Mu Yunyao quickly turned back to the mirror and wiped the smudge pigment from her brow. “Fourth Master, you only know how to say sweet things.” “Even if they’re sweet words, they’re still the truth.” ...

~ Mu Yunyao, the One Who Earns the Family Fortune ~ After Yu Wangfei escorted Noble Consort Qi back to her palace, the two of them remained inside for a long time. No one knew what mother and son discussed, and no one dared mention Wen Lixiao’s name again. When Mu Yunyao later went to offer New Year greetings to Noble Consort Qi, she noticed that aside from her slightly reddened eyes, the Consort’s expression appeared perfectly normal. The red envelope she handed out was especially generous. On the way back, Jin Lan held her curiosity in for quite a while before finally giving in. “Miss, do you think Noble Consort Qi already knows about the death of that Qin musician?” “The palace isn’t that large, and news travels quickly. It would be difficult for her not to know.” “Then… then… isn’t she sad?” Mu Yunyao looked up at the sky. It seemed like it might snow again soon, since the weather had been gloomy for days. “So many years have passed—everything has already changed beyond recognition...

~ Only for You to See ~ The map Mu Yunyao had presented was like a massive stone pressing heavily upon the hearts of the Beijiang envoys. They secretly resolved to investigate whether the Dali Dynasty truly possessed a detailed map of Beijiang. Otherwise, once they returned home, they feared they would lose sleep for many nights. Seeing the envoys’ uneasy expressions, the officials of the Dali Dynasty smiled faintly, their eyes full of pride. Their mutual dislike of Beijiang had lasted for years. Seeing the Beijiang envoys so unsettled made the officials feel they could enjoy an extra bowl of rice tonight. The Emperor kept a pleased expression, and his smile only faded slowly after the banquet ended. The officials departed one after another, and the Beijiang envoys were escorted out of the palace. Silence fell over the grand hall. Mu Yunyao glanced at Noble Consort Qi kneeling on the floor and quietly asked Grand Princess Yide, “Grandmother, should we withdraw first?” “There’s no need....

~ Intimidating Beijiang ~ Palace attendants brought in a tall frame covered in red silk. It looked like a screen, but its size made it stand out as especially grand and impressive. Mu Yunyao stepped forward and pulled away the silk in one swift motion. Everyone focused their eyes on it, and surprise immediately spread across their faces. What she had presented was indeed a screen, but an extraordinarily tall one. Its surface held a pale jade tone, giving off a cool shine as if it had been carved from real jade. Instead of the usual patterns or flower embroidery design, it showed an exquisitely detailed map. The map was magnificent in scale, yet rich in detail. Mountains, rivers, plateaus, plains, cities, and roads were embroidered across the territory of the Dali Dynasty in different-colored threads. Next to the map were several great characters, sharp and forceful as if cut by axe and chisel— Map of the Dali Dynasty’s Territory! The Emperor stood up and stepped down from the dais. He ...

The Names He Chose Long Ago Manager Liu from the Finnish branch was extremely considerate. Since Liu Qianxiu and Mu Wan were enjoying their time alone at the villa, he had arranged for the driver and household staff to remain in town, ready whenever they were needed. After Liu Qianxiu contacted the driver, it took less than twenty minutes for the car to arrive. Finland had a long snowy season. The locals naturally had their own ways of dealing with it. Chains had been fitted around the tires to prevent slipping. With the current amount of snow, driving was still perfectly safe. The driver was Chinese, but he had lived in Finland for many years and knew all the interesting places nearby. Finland was known as the home of Santa Claus. Even a town like this one had plenty of Santa-themed decorations. There was even a small theme park where reindeer were kept. Mu Wan and Liu Qianxiu got out of the car and walked around the park. Mu Wan even took a photo with a reindeer. She had never really...

A Heart That Won’t Disappear It snowed silently through the entire night. After the long journey and far too much happiness the night before, Mu Wan was still drowsy when she woke. Her body was curled beneath the goose-down quilt. She opened her eyes and looked carefully outside. Everything had turned white. Liu Qianxiu was already awake. The bedroom was spacious. A fire burned in the fireplace, and beside it stood a European-style sofa and coffee table over an intricately patterned rug. He was not sitting on the sofa. Instead, he sat beside the floor-to-ceiling window a short distance away. A rug had been laid there, with a low table and two meditation cushions placed on top of it. Liu Qianxiu wore a pale blue-green robe and sat there doing his morning cultivation. Beyond the window lay thick snow. The mountain forest had been almost entirely covered in white, with only occasional patches of green showing through. The man sat quietly before the snowy landscape, his expression serene, ...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 635

~ Pregnant ~ Yu Wang froze for a moment. “Uncle?” Noble Consort Qi nodded. “That’s right. Lixiao and I once had a marriage engagement. But it was only a verbal agreement between your maternal grandfather and the old Lord Wen of that time. The two families never exchanged formal documents or betrothal gifts. Later, Lixiao realized he had no heart for officialdom and chose to leave the capital to travel the world. After the discussion, the two families agreed to cancel the engagement. In order not to damage the friendship between our houses, your maternal grandfather acknowledged Lixiao as his adopted son. That means he is my elder brother—and therefore, your uncle.” Those words were something he had once instructed her on, tear by tear, syllable by syllable, many years ago—so that if the engagement ever became public, it would not become a weapon for others to attack her. Over the years, she had replayed the moment of their separation countless times. The pain clung like a parasite ...

~  But People Say Old Friends’ Hearts Are Easily Changed  ~ The musician played “Feng Qiu Huang” with deep sorrow, the notes plaintive and lingering, like the sound of weeping carried by the wind. Mu Yunyao lifted her gaze toward Noble Consort Qi’s seat above, and her heart gave a sudden, sharp jolt. Noble Consort Qi was staring intently at the musician in the hall. Tears streamed down her face, and the pain she was forcing down seemed to press upon every line of her expression. Ling Wang curled his lips in satisfaction, bright gleams of exhilaration flashing in his eyes. After all his effort, he had finally found the man. It seemed the trouble had not been wasted—his frantic work had paid off in the end. Grand Princess Yide’s expression darkened, a heavy trace of displeasure passing through her eyes. She did not care about the younger generation’s struggles, and she understood well that battles over imperial power had never been about fairness—only victory, never scruples. No...

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 633

~ Disrupt ~ The Emperor stared in astonishment at the scene before him, unable to believe what he saw. “What is the meaning of this?” Helian Liluo smiled, her manner composed. “In reply to Your Majesty, I have been raised since childhood on water infused with the Haiming Pearl, and so my constitution is far stronger than that of ordinary people. Over the years, with constant nourishment, even my wounds heal swiftly. This Haiming Pearl has always been kept as a treasured heirloom within the royal family. If it were not for the sake of friendship between our two nations, we would never have offered it.” The Emperor’s gaze shifted slightly. “Amity is a matter between states. Even without this Haiming Pearl, I would still give the matter careful consideration.” Such an extraordinary gift, yet Beijiang seemed to want nothing in return. No matter how he looked at it, something felt off. Helian Liluo bowed. “In reply to Your Majesty, Beijiang has one additional condition.” “Speak.” “I hav...
