Divorce by Agreement C24
by MarineTL — Chapter 24 #Who Says We Can’t Return to Our Youth? The day I reconnected with Xiaxia, I racked my brain trying to reconstruct every detail of my reunion with Xie Zhuo back then. I told her which grove to bring her bamboo basket to tomorrow to hunt for bamboo shoots. I also told her she’d run into a bloodied Xie Xuanqing there, and then a flash of silver light would attack them. At that moment, Xie Xuanqing would shield her. I instructed Xiaxia to go along with his act—nestle in his arms, and once…

Divorce by Agreement C23
by MarineTL — Chapter 23 #Can’t he read? Can’t he write? The winter months in Kunlun are icy and snowy. I didn’t see Xie Zhuo here, so I figured—he must’ve exited the time stream before me. Maybe he landed at a different point in time. What I need to do now is figure out exactly what time it is. Xie Zhuo and I originally met on the twelfth of the second lunar month, in the dead of winter. If I’m right, this time he’s come back… intending to stop that meeting from ever happening. After all— The…

Divorce by Agreement C22
by MarineTL — Chapter 22 #Xie Zhuo, you real son of a bitch. My dagger was snatched away by Xie Zhuo—effortlessly, like it was nothing. But he was clearly furious. He stared daggers at me and called my name through gritted teeth: “Fu! Jiu! Xia!” I heard him loud and clear. I knew that right now, not only could he not lay a hand on me, he actually had to protect me. And the moment I handed my life over entirely to Xie Zhuo, I realized—I trusted him more than I trusted myself. So my every move became calm…

Divorce by Agreement C21
by MarineTL — Chapter 21 #Our relationship can’t just end like this I rushed frantically toward the cave in the Snow Bamboo Forest. Before I even got there, I spotted Xie Xuanqing standing at the cave entrance from afar. He really hadn’t left! He held the flute made of snow bamboo in his hand—he had come back for it… I couldn’t quite tell what I was feeling at that moment, and didn’t have time to sort it out. I just saw Xie Xuanqing’s serious face as he prepared to ride the wind toward the…

by MarineTL — Chapter 20 #Three years of drought, and even kings would perform sacrifices to pray for rain Did Xie Zhuo… just kiss me? I stood there frozen in shock. He was so close, I couldn’t even see him clearly anymore. In the blur before my eyes, his breath filled the space between our lips and teeth, inside and out—it was all his scent. The brush of his hair, the pressure of his fingertips, the soft sweep of his robes—everything was cool to the touch, yet somehow burned with heat. But after that brief…

by MarineTL — Chapter 19 #He Kissed Me I found Old Qin’s self-recommendation rather amusing, so I used three spirit stones to book two hours of his time. But just as I was about to leave, Old Qin reminded me, “Leaving already? The timer’s already running, you know. Better hurry back.” “You’re timing this?” “We’re a paid service. Once payment’s made, service starts.” “Then refund me first. I’ll pay again once I come back.” “No refunds for our special services.” I pointed at him.…

Divorce by Agreement C18
by MarineTL — Chapter 18 #My compassion for Xie Xuanqing was completely destroyed by Xie Zhuo. The mere thought that one day that young man would turn into the person I’m currently arguing with makes me want to wash my eyes with lime water three hundred times, or better yet, just blind myself to put an end to it. That night, filled with anger, I reflected on what I had to do the next day. The following morning, I got up early, didn’t say goodbye to Xie Zhuo, and left the house directly. I didn’t go to find Xie…

by MarineTL — Chapter 17 #If such beauty is not a mistake, then is its shattering one? I couldn’t respond to what Xie Xuanqing said—my jaw hung open in shock, too weak to close. “Why…?” I asked the question anyone would. But the moment I saw Xie Xuanqing lower his eyes, that sudden dimness in his gaze, I felt—I’d asked a pointless question. It wasn’t that I belittled those lost lives, or that I pitied Xie Xuanqing so much that killing no longer mattered. It was just that… if Xie Zhuo had done what…
