Chapter 44
Feeling the freezing gaze, Su Qianci looked up and felt how cold his look was . Her heart trembling, she saw him looking down . Following the direction of his eyesight, Su Qianci saw her teal dress . Since she had put one leg on the back of the sofa and the other on the arm of the sofa, he could see her smooth thighs as well as part of her panties…
She immediately blushed and sat straight .
"I would never do that . " Lu Yihan did not detect Su Qianci's odd behavior, opened his fridge and took out a bottle of Coke . "How about Saturday night? I will treat you to a nice dinner . "
Stared at by Li Sicheng's invasive eyes, Su Qianci suddenly felt her scalp prickling . She replied absentmindedly to Lu Yihan's question and then quickly hung up . Her heart was beating so fast . For some reason, Su Qianci felt a bit guilty, as if she got caught cheating on her husband .
"Are you done?" Li Sicheng narrowed his eyes, his voice low . The same tone as always, not much different from before .
However, Su Qianci felt even more guilty and quickly changed the subject . "So you're back already . I thought you would work late . "
Li Sicheng raised an eyebrow, stood up straight, and put one hand in his pocket, asking, "You hoped that I would work late?"
Su Qianci paused, not knowing what to say . In her previous lifetime, Li Sicheng had always worked late . And sometimes, he would have been away from home for three days . Every time she called to ask when he would come home, he would have always answered that he was busy . However, how come he was no longer busy in this lifetime? Su Qianci became quiet and whispered, "No…"

It was suddenly extremely awkward .
The servant Nanny Rong quickly said, "Sir, Madam, dinner is ready . "
"Okay!" Su Qianci looked at Nanny Rong gratefully and sat down at the dinner table . Li Sicheng walked slowly down from upstairs . Hearing his footsteps, Su Qianci felt pressured by his presence, because she was feeling quite guilty . However, why would she have such a feeling? She did not do anything at all . Thinking of that, Su Qianci felt much better . She slowly started to eat . Her movements were so elegant that it was great to watch . It was so different from two days ago . However, she acted so natural that it was easy to tell that she did not try to pretend anything .
In just a few days, how could she have such a huge change? Maybe she was pretending to be a different person two days ago? What good would that do for her though?
Li Sicheng felt that it was more and more difficult for him to read this woman . He elegantly reached for a shrimp with his chopsticks . And at that exact moment, Su Qianci's chopsticks clashed with his .

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.
