"Of course, I'm angry. I asked Ruoran, but she did not say why. I asked Yueze, but Yueze also kept it a secret. They were still fine before the New Year; then, suddenly, he told me that they are getting a divorce. It's like they think marriage is child's play!" Mrs. Liang rubbed her eyebrows, then looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and said, "You and Yuekai have been married for many years. When are you going to have a child? Your father's colleague has been a grandparent for many years. His older grandson is about to graduate from primary school."
After Mrs. Liang finished asking, she saw that her eldest daughter-in-law had fallen silent. She sighed a few times in her heart.
Her married children did not give her any peace of mind. The husband and wife were always in harmony with each other. When an elderly like her asked about grandchildren, her daughter-in-law would stay silent, and her son would say nothing as well.
Mrs. Liang grumbled in her heart. The two of them had been married for so many years, yet they did not have children. Were they also planning to get a divorce whenever there was a chance? Perhaps they wanted to get divorced at any time, so they did not want the burden of having children.
Liang Yueze pretended as if he did not hear his mother's words and picked up the phone. He praised Lu Xingzhi for his excellent timing.
"What is it?" Liang Yueze knew Lu Xingzhi well. He was different from Zhou Weiqi and Chen Xuyao. He would not call for a chat because he had nothing better to do. Therefore, it must have been something important.
"A person called Xie Qiuran is doing a paternity test at the Jindo City hospital; please help me stop him." Lu Xingzhi and Liang Yueze did not beat around the bush.

"Okay." Liang Yueze immediately agreed. After thinking for a while, he said, "Master Cheng has already taken Madam Cheng abroad. He probably won't be back for a while."
"I know." Lu Xingzhi's people were watching Master Cheng's movements, or rather, they were watching Madam Cheng.
Lu Xingzhi had investigated Madam Cheng's condition after that. It was very serious, indeed. No wonder Jiang Yao told Master Cheng to prepare for her funeral. However, at that time, Lu Xingzhi had hoped that Madam Cheng would do well and hold on for a little longer. He wanted to take the time to arrange some things and investigate some matters.
Even though Liang Yueze was curious about why Lu Xingzhi wanted him to help stop Xie Qiuran's paternity test, Lu Xingzhi did not intend to explain, so he did not ask further.
"Has Ruoran contacted Jiang Yao?" Liang Yueze suddenly asked, "Her flight is the day after tomorrow. Is Jiang Yao going to see her off?"
"No." Lu Xingzhi shook his head. If she did, Jiang Yao would definitely tell him. She had not said anything about that, which meant that Jiang Yao did not know when Luo Ruoran would leave.
"I got it." Liang Yueze nodded and hung up the phone.
Mrs. Liang waited for Liang Yueze to hang up the phone before continuing to ask, "Ruoran is leaving. Are you seeing her off?"
"No." Liang Yueze rejected it without hesitation.
"I heard Ruoran's mother say that she wouldn't be back for a long time. She's there to expand the company's overseas market. Once she starts working, she might not come back for a few years, like her mother said." Mrs. Liang sighed.
"I know." Liang Yueze nodded.
"Since you know that—'' Why won't he send her off? Mrs. Liang wanted to know, but she did not ask that question, especially when she saw Liang Yueze's expressionless face. She felt helpless. That was probably the reason Luo Ruoran wanted to divorce her son. There were not many girls who could stand that kind of husband who was always expressionless.

The Simulacrum
"He who fights with harem tropes should see to it that he himself does not become a harem protagonist. And if you gaze for long into a narrative, the narrative gazes also into you." --- Friedrich Nietzsche (probably?) How would you react if one day you woke up inside an environment running on tropes and clichés? For allegedly average high-schooler Leonard Dunning, this question became quite relevant when one day he woke up in a pristine city on a strange island in the middle of the Atlantic, without any memories, surrounded by classmates who are barely more than characterless placeholders, and with a classic indecisive harem protagonist and his impossibly beautiful love interests for friends. That would be hard to deal with already, yet his investigation into the tropes governing the world, trying to avoid harem shenanigans, and his odd blend of outside-context knowledge, unique abilities, and a penchant for causing trouble wherever he goes ends up dragging him into the center of the action anyway. Disclaimer: This is a tongue-in-cheek, slice of life romantic comedy, with occasional sprinkles of combat and mystery to spice things up. Please do not expect a straight up deconstruction beyond some in-universe meta-commentary by the characters.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.

I pulled on my beige puff jacket as I opened the door. Just as I turn to the door, Elijah is standing right in front of me. "I've missed you so much." He tilted his head towards me, yearning for one of my kisses. I placed my hand against his face and pulled away. "Don't you have to go skiing?"He removed my hand. "And didn't you just see me this morning?" I asked, tilting my head and placing my hands on my hips. He bites his lips and pulls me closer. "I wanted to see you before we leave." He quickly pecked my lips and gripped my bottom. I lightly pushed him off and giggled. ✘✘✘✘✘𝘑𝘢𝘥𝘢 𝘊𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘫𝘢𝘩 𝘒𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘯.
