Exposed Lin Jinyao wandered through the art museum for nearly an hour before finally stepping out. The sunlight outside was piercingly bright, making him squint. He instinctively pulled down the brim of his cap, descended the stairs, and turned to head back toward the hotel. When he arrived at the hotel, Chen Jin was already waiting in the lobby. Seeing him appear, Chen Jin slowly closed his tablet and stood up to greet him. Was your trip to the museum pleasant? Not bad, Lin Jinyao replied…-

Rebellious The other end of the line was silent for a moment before a slightly deep male voice spoke with caution. You want to investigate the Zhou family? Yes, Lin Jinyao replied softly, walking slowly toward the floor-to-ceiling window. Boss, the Zhou family's waters run deep. While they can't compare to the Mu family or the Lin family of the past, their internal connections are intricate, and this matter is extremely sensitive... Are you sure you want to touch it? The voice on the other end held…

Codename The incense in the study had burned out, leaving only a faint, lingering wisp of smoke in the air that vanished with the slightest breeze. Mu Huacheng gazed at the deep night sky outside the window and waved his hand dismissively toward Chen Jin without turning around. Feeling a sense of relief, Chen Jin immediately bowed and withdrew, quietly closing the door behind him. Mu Huacheng sat alone in the study for a while, his eyes as deep and dark as the midnight sea outside. Eventually, he…

Fishing Mu Huacheng sent the fish he caught to the kitchen, instructing the cook to stew a pot of fresh fish soup, claiming it was to replenish his vitality. Who this he was went without saying. At the dining table, Lin Jinyao ate without tasting anything, stealing several glances at Mu Huacheng’s expression before finally speaking after a long silence. "Mr. Mu, I need to leave Xiling Island for two days." Mu Huacheng did not answer immediately. His expression remained normal as he placed a piece of…

The Jade Pendant The early morning sunlight filtered through the screen windows, gently spilling into the bedroom. When Lin Jinyao opened his eyes, the space beside him was already empty, leaving only a slight indentation. The residual warmth on the sheets indicated that Mu Huacheng had only recently left. Lin Jinyao struggled to prop himself up, the soreness in his waist immediately reminding him of last night's madness. Mu Huacheng always left numerous marks on his body, tirelessly taking possession…

Prologue A warm yellow desk lamp cast a soft glow in the dim bedroom. The light slanted onto the distant wall, enlarging and stretching the two illusory silhouettes from the bed. A man lay prostrate on the bed with his back arched, his wrists pinned firmly by the person behind him. He tried to struggle, but his body was completely immobilized. Only his chest heaved violently with suppressed breaths, his arms like a pair of butterflies with pinned wings, unable to flutter. Fine beads of sweat rolled…

Chapter 49 Su Sheng felt a shiver... That day, Su Sheng had a dream. In the dream, he returned to that small world. At that time, Adelaire had just awakened and was looking down at him, devoid of any emotion. From below, the Demon King's angry shouts could be heard. Su Sheng slowly thought that he seemed about to be taken away. However, events unfolded beyond his expectation. Adelaire did take him away, but the Demon King followed close behind. How could this be? he wondered. Dazed, he returned to…-

Without the pull of the mental energy, the gray matter quickly retreated back into Lishiel’s soul, hiding even deeper. The mental energy in the room fluctuated noticeably, a precursor to the uncontrolled individual launching a second attack. Su Sheng pressed a hidden button on the wall. Once pressed, this button meant the surrounding space was completely sealed, making it impossible to open from the outside. Lishiel had told him about this after learning his plan. Once mental energy goes out of…

Chapter 47: Out of Control The person who heard the movement turned around slowly, their voice deep, like the calm before a storm: "Why are you here?" Su Sheng chose not to answer, instead walking forward step by step, but was sharply rebuked the moment he took the first step: "Don't come closer!" Su Sheng didn't stop, but asked, "Why?" "Don't come closer!" The voice was still steady and strong, but if one listened closely, they would detect a hint of pleading and disgust hidden within. "I can't…

The object lying on the floor was the ring he had left at Bia’s house. The ring, once dull and tarnished, was now polished to a brilliant shine, and the rhomboid gem embedded with light magic sparkled brightly. It was clear how much the owner cherished this ring. Lishiel, who had stumbled by the bed, looked panicked. He didn't even bother to stand up, instead scrambling on his knees toward the ring. He carefully picked it up, wiped it on his clothes, and then clenched it tightly in his palm. Su Sheng…
