Chapter 643
Lu Jinnian took in her actions, and even though he remained expressionless, his face turned tender and loving . He started the engine, heading onto the road .
Qiao Anhao lowered her head, carefully arranging the documents and photographs with seriousness, before finally raising the two red marriage certificates . Turning, she passed Lu Jinnian's certificate over to him . "Here's yours . "
Lu Jinnian turned his head slightly while keeping his focus on the road . When he saw the words "Marriage Certificate" imprinted on the cover page of the red book, he suddenly realized that both of their names would be together now . Abruptly, the steering wheel steered sideways, slightly out of control, but quickly, Lu Jinnian stabilized the car and calmly reached over to grab the red book .
Only after holding it in his hands for a long while was he willing to put it aside into his pocket . Even though the red book didn't hold much warmth, he could still feel a hint of heat through the thin pocket fabric separating it from his skin .
When they hit a red light, Lu Jinnian glanced at Qiao Anhao through the rear view mirror: she was studying the red book intently .
The faint glow from the sunset fell onto her face, coloring it with a faint reddish shade . Her long lashes were lowered, her lips curled into a slight smile .
Lu Jinnian was mesmerized just then, but the continuous honking from the cars behind him snapped him back to reality . He turned his attention back to the road . Even though his features were soft and tender, he spoke coldly . "Which house do you like?"
"Uh?" Qiao Anhao asked in confusion as she lifted her head .
"Do you intend for us to stay separately on the first day of our marriage?"
"Uhh . . . " Qiao Anhao frowned, seemingly unclear of the meaning before suddenly realizing what he had meant . Tilting her head to the side, she thought for a while . "Mian Xiu Garden . "

That mansion in Mian Xiu Garden held many of their memories, and even after she had left, he still maintained everything as though they were still living together .
Hence, after they got married now, she wished for Mian Xiu Garden to be their home .
After she replied, she realized that she had sounded too resolute so she added, "Can we?"
Without replying to her question, he said,"After such a long flight, you must be tired . After dinner, we'll go back to rest . I'll help you move your things tomorrow . "
He seemed to be agreeable .
–
After dinner, they returned to Mian Xiu Garden . While Qiao Anhao showered, Lu Jinnian headed to the study room . Out of habit, he lit a cigarette . After just a few puffs, he reached for the red book in his pocket .
He stared at the cover page for a long while before flipping it open to look at the photo of himself and Qiao Anhao .
She was smiling sweetly, her eyes curved into crescents . He clearly remembered that he was emotionless at that time, but in the photo there was a hint of a smile on his lips .
After a long while, he glanced down at their names .
Lu Jinnian .
Qiao Anhao .

Regis and Charlotte
Regis knows it's an illusion. He's only ever seen Princess Charlotte from afar; only heard her voice when she spoke to a crowd. Sure he's good at reading people, but he knows she of all people will be wearing a perfect mask. The problem is he's in love with the illusion, and it's not going away. So he strikes out on a quest: win the fighting tournament held every year, where she gives out the prize, and hypothetically—just hypothetically—he can forfeit the monetary winnings and instead ask for a week to be close to her, to get to know the real her, and break the illusion once and for all.

Seeking Elysium
Elysium Ling is a returnee. She’s been to an alternate world, coerced into fighting their wars, and somehow returned alive. Now, 13 years later, she finds herself again taken to a foreign world – this time, by her own choice. Not the same world that she returned from, but a foreign world nonetheless. There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.
