A Dangerous Atrophy/Qi River's Old Stream
Oh, how she wanted to yell that out loud. There was just one moment when she nearly voiced her dissatisfactions, but the second she opened her mouth, she suddenly remembered— What pride did she have left to speak of?Yes, wh*res had their pride, but of all the wh*res, she was the only exception!She gripped the check in her hand tightly. In Jane's eyes, every number written on the check was the color of blood. …Knock knock. "Come in."Alora raised her head. "Why are you here? Are you

“Jane, explain!” Someone like Alora would never be fooled so easily, of course. Her pretty face was icy cold. “Are you saying that you did not actually take some time off because you were tired?”As soon as she said that, Alora picked up her phone and looked at Jane. “It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I’ll just call Mr. Stewart.”It was not her best move, but Alora was not thinking straight right now.“Alora, Mr. Stewart won’t care about what happened to me.”Alora blinked. This time,

Susie was sitting on a simple couch there, playing on her phone.The moment Jane came in, Susie immediately put her phone down and stood up.“You’re back?”Jane was even more surprised now. Usually, Susie would be hiding in her room and sleeping by now, but to

Jane’s deadened eyes flashed with a hint of suspicion. She looked at Susie strangely, feeling confused. Why was Susie suddenly acting so peculiarly?“Get up first, Jane. The floor is cold, and you just got better. I mean, you were just discharged from the hospital.” As Susie said that, she used both of her hands to pull Jane up. “We girls must take better care of ourselves. You can’t torture yourself like you did back then.”“...”“I just happened to forget something at the dorm that day, tha

Nobody expected Haydn to ask that all of a sudden. Even the air seemed to freeze in that instant. At the very least, all the hairs on Susie's body stood on end out of her sheer nervousness. "Hmm? Was what she said true, Jane?"Yes, or no. It was a one-word answer. Jane just had to open her mouth slightly. She could clearly feel Susie's gaze on her, anxious and panicked. She raised her head slowly, looking at Haydn. Her mouth opened, her lips curving into a smile. "Of course."The clo

“No wonder it’s said that Master Soros is an exceptional young man. The rumors do not lie.”Mr. Denham had a Cantonese lilt to his voice. Haydn nodded at him, saying, “Alright then, Mr. Denham, everyone. You’ll have to excuse me now, but family matters beckon.”When Haydn left, he told Mr. Denham meaningfully, “Don’t worry, Mr. Denham, you can play here however you like. I’ll get someone to send over the toys in a bit, and I even chose a fascinating girl specifically for you. Don’t let me down

The large and burly bodyguard expressionless stood in front of Susie.“Sir, this is East Emperor! What are you trying to do? No matter what you want to do, no one can do as they please here at East Emperor.”She did not panic. After all, this was East Emperor, and that fact was her biggest advantage.Mr. Denham hesitated as well. He had heard of East Emperor’s reputation even down in the south.All of a sudden, someone walked into the room and whispered something into Mr. Denham’s ear. The latter’s look of wariness immediately turned taunting. “Miss Thompson, I heard tell. You’re an outcast here at East Emperor, someone not under the protection of East Emperor.”Susie instantly remembered what Alora said that day, and her face immediately turned pale. She was properly panicked this time. “Y-You, stay away from me.”“Don’t be afraid, Miss Thompson. We’re not going to do anything to you. We just want you to perform something for us.”“Perform what?”“You’ll know once my old friend

Mr. Denham looked at the woman in front of him and frowned. “Too ugly.”Susie’s heart pounded. Those two words were enough to make her very nervous.Never before had she wished so badly that Jane looked at least a bit more presentable to others.If Mr. Denham thought she was too ugly, would that not mean that Susie would be the one in trouble in the end?Susie peeked at the transparent cabinet-like container carefully.

Would it… count?No. No, wait.Erhai. Luka. That gentle girl did not save Jane’s life so that Jane would repay her this way.What about their Erhai dream? She had not fulfilled it yet. She could not… give up!Hence, Jane used the last of her strength to wave her fists, slamming them into the walls of the container as she said, “Save me… Gurgle gurgle…”All of her “save me”s turned into a long stream of bubbles, gurgling from her mouth. “Save… Gurgle gurgle…” Her vision was starting to blur,
