Mud Doll

Updated every night at nine.

Blurb:

In his final year of high school, Xia Qi's neighbor's older brother came back for the summer.

The older brother taught Xia Qi to draw, helped him with his studies, took him for walks by the sea, bought him suppressants when he went into heat, and carried him to watch the sunrise while he slept. He was a steady and reliable adult.

No one had ever been so good to Xia Qi. To keep the older brother by his side, Xia Qi lied.

He confessed to him.

Married life of a couple

Blurb:

The old emperor is incompetent and extravagant, and the court is divided.

Xia Si, the chief minister, has a kind and refined face, but is actually greedy for power and wealth, with influence that reaches everywhere.

The people joke that Xia Si can cover half the sky over Great Zhou with one hand.

The other half is covered by Shen Liguang, grand secretary of military affairs and minister of war.

Xia Si hides a blade behind his smile and harbors ulterior motives; Shen Liguang pays lip service while wielding life and death at his whim.

At court, they spar with words and can't stand each other; away from court, they can't be bothered to exchange even half a sentence.

Even newborns in Great Zhou know that the two are bitter enemies.

But no one knows that, when the moon hangs over the treetops, Shen Liguang knocks on the door of Xia Si's residence.

"Lord Xia, I feel like we've argued ourselves into having feelings for each other." Shen Liguang is wrapped in a chill, his peach-blossom eyes curving with a smile. "Why don't we get together?"

Beneath the moonlight, Xia Si's expression is gentle and placid. After a moment's thought, he says, "Lord Shen's proposal is excellent."

Theme: Treat people sincerely and work diligently.
