    Summary

    The person flinches at the glare of the flashlight, flings his hands up into the air and freezes, a sway of leather over his back the only unregulated movement. In his lap, the baby’s head flops over the barrel of his thigh like a snapped branch, and the little thing starts howling again.

    “I’m not security,” Wen Kexing blurts. “But put your hand back under that baby’s neck or I will call someone.”

    Summary

    The pale beauty on the bed swallowed the bowl of medicine without complaint and handed it silently to the eunuch by the bed. Leaning dizzily against the wall, Zhou Zishu fought yet another bout of nausea, trying to keep down the thin congee that he’d forced down his throat in the morning.

    “Wangye,” the eunuch, Qiu Bin, said, sounding uncomfortable.

    “Leave.” Zhou Zishu closed his eyes.

    “Just… your bride should be on the way. Since the Emperor has refused to postpone the wedding—”

    Summary

    Three months. He’ll stay three months. Just long enough for that shrimpy Zhang Chengling to wean into this new world, and then he’ll leave. Just three months he’ll allow himself that brassy, beautiful line cook, who barked the most flirtatious insult at Zhou Zishu as he charged down the cracked asphalt with a towering pallet jack of wholesale soy sauce boxes; his voice magnetic like an army general’s, clear above the rumbling gallop of his condiment fleet.

    Summary

    “For years, I’ve been your weapon.” Zishu spoke evenly, holding the gaze of his superior. “Hunting down pirates, tortured at your command, killed by your orders. I commanded my crew at your request, never with any regrets, showing no mercy to those in our way” His hands tightened on the cloth of his trousers, fingers clenching painfully in the fabric.

    “All I know is fighting, as it is all I’ve ever done since joining the company as a teenager. I’m grateful for all the years in your service but now-” Zhou Zishu lowered his gaze, expression pained as he spoke the next string of words. “Now they’re all gone and I’m a Captain without a crew.”

    Summary

    In which Zhou Zishu, a dying man, discovered he had acquired a ward, a talent for video games, a boyfriend, and a newfound will to live, not necessarily in that order.

    ---

    “Yun Xu,” Ghost Valley Master said, his baritone caressing the vowels carefully. It was a tone of voice that Zhou Zishu recognised but had not heard in a long while—in a year and a half, to be exact. Even with that excuse, nothing could have prepared Zhou Zishu for Ghost Valley Master’s next words. “To have such a handsome voice, you must be a great beauty.”

    Zhou Zishu blinked once, twice, and clicked the mute teammates button.
