Xiao Yun stopped at Chuan Huan Jing's office to see a navy colored gown with embroidered sparrows glittering in the collar. The collar of the dress covered the neck followed down by the flowers and leaves embroidered by a golden thread in the waist.
"This dress is it finished?" Xiao Yun asked, her eyes couldn't stay away from the beauty depicted by the dress.
"Yes, boss. I still have some other dress, do you also want to see them?" Chuan Huan Jing asked but he had already moved to pull the curtain to show a few couples of other dresses that he finished in three days.
"You did this in three days...?" Xiao Yun asked with doubt. The dress was mostly embroidered by hand with different techniques that were difficult to do. It was Chuan Huan Jing's unique designing techniques and the one that made him utterly different from the rest of the designers.
"Ah, yes." Chuan Huan Jing confirmed.
"That's amazing..." Xiao Yun praised to feel the quality of the stitches of the dress. Chuan Huan Jig who rarely heard any of heartfelt praises rubbed his head shyly and murmured. "It's nothing amazing. Most designers always do this too. To us, making clothes are our lives."
Xiao Yun agreed and put the case back on the track. "Tomorrow I will be attending to an important evening party and then I have an idea of wearing your dress for a showcase."
If Xiao Yun has to praise, the socialites have a very good eye in scanning other people's dresses. With a dress that even an amateur could discern its splendor, those spectators wouldn't miss it. The party is the best place for her to advertise her shop before it open.
"Of course! Wait a moment, which gown would you want to try, boss?" Chuan Huan Jing walked over to choose the gown by imagining which would fit the occasion and Xiao Yun's pale skin.
"As expected this one is the best." Xiao Yun pointed the navy dress with gold thread. Not only that the deep blue color brought her skin alive, but the golden embroidered will also attract enough attention to the details of the dress.
"I agree." Chuan Huan Jing nodded. "The blue color fit boss's skin is very well-suited for the dress color and based on the evening party would be held in a bright room so the golden color will sparkles." Chuan Huan Jing continued.
"Ah- but will the dress fit me?"
"It will!" Chuan Huan Jing replied confidently. Since he saw Xiao Yun, the dress that he made mostly inspired by the boss. As a designer, he imagined which situation the dress could be used and was quite confident that the dress would suit Xiao Yun's aura.

Xiao Yun lifted her brows and didn't ask much. "Well, then I will be trying this dress. Thank you, Huan Jing."
"No problem, the fitting room is over there, boss." Chuan Huan Jing pointed to the side where the fitting room was.
Xiao Yun walked over but stopped and asked the thing that had been dwelling in her mind. "Huan Jing, why do you keep on calling me boss?"
Chua Huan Jing slanted his head. "Because boss is the boss?"
Xiao Yun gave a long uh and entered the fitting room without asking more.
When the night fell, on the other side of the capital Wang Li Lei entered the tall building. The authentic furniture of Chinese ornaments undoubtedly breath-taking but with how dim the place was it only became eerie. A man with a block-like expression walked over to greet him the moment he arrived at the entrance.
"The master is waiting at the twenty fifth floor." He spoke briefly and when he received a slight nod from Wang Li Lei, they proceed to ascend the floor to stop at the floor where Suan Lung was in.
A light knock resounded from Suan Lung's room. "Mr. Wang has arrived."
"Let him in." Suan Lung replied and contentedly smiled at his future successor. "How are ya?"
"I'm well, Suan Shifu." Wang Li Lei replied to take a seat at the place.
Suan Lung stared at his expression and smirked. "You seemed to have a determination now. Who is it this time?"
"Choi Group's Head." Wang Li Lei returned and saw Suan Lung's eyes widened. He knew that the person Wang Li Lei's targeting is someone critical to the point he consent to become his successor even after his first rejection. But he could never guess that the person he was aiming was the Korean's underworld head.
"Choi Yeon Jun, you mean?" he paused for a moment and inched his curious face forward. "Why?"
"He forgot his debt." Suan Lung chuckled and burst into a burst of small laughter. His answer didn't change since their last phone call, meaning this "debt" he meant must tangle with harming something precious to him. And there was only one thing that was far precious than his life at the moment, his fiancee. He stared at the pair of eyes that reminded him of the small little boy who confidently asked to be his student. The same eyes with deep hatred that would only be satiated with the blood of his enemy. "You're holding a deep grudge because of debt?" his tone had the same haughtiness that he usually had but this time with cold amusement.

Wang Li Lei tilted his chin slightly and replied with a meaningful gaze to take a sip from his tea.
Suan Lung realized that he had been talking away from his intention today and brought the matter back. "Anyway, you do know that being my successor wouldn't be easy, don't you?"
"Yes." Wang Li Lei was firm with his words. Not soon after he replied, knock resounded again across the door.
"They came." Suan Lung smiled at Wang Li Lei and assured. "I'll be on your side. Do what you like."
Wang Li Lei's eyes stopped a moment and smiled. "Thank you, Suan Shifu."
Three men with different figures entered the room and took a seat at the round table. At first, they didn't seem to be interested in Wang Li Lei but nevertheless out of curiosity and Wang Li Lei's immense presence, their eyes found its own way to scan the young man sitting beside Suan Lung.
"This is he?" The skinny man with eyes almost seemed to be close named Ye Xinya, the head of the Ye Group spoke, his tone gave off a laid-back tone but Suan Lung despised him because of his sly behavior.
"A green horn." Zhao Min the head of Wushin Group commented sourly, seeming unsatisfied by Wang Li Lei's handsome cold face.
"I think I've seen him before..." Tang Guanyu the head of Tang Group rubbed his chin and squinted his eyes at him and gave a surprised ah. "Are you possibly Wang Family's head, Wang Li Lei?"
"I am, it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Wang Li Lei." Wang Li Lei introduced himself once again to receive a greeting nod from Ye Xinya and Tang Guanyu.
"So? This is the promising successor you said, Suan?" Zhao Min taunted.
"He is. What? Don't tell me you are jealous of his face?" Suan Lung saw Zhao Min's face darkened and smiled. "You may think he is a weed that had just lived for three days but for your information he lived with me for two years before robbing his place as the Wang Family's head."
The three faces turned to a surprise. They took another glance at Wang Li Lei's face and looked at each other.
"So this is the well-known Wang's Head who killed his uncle. The little boy that you raised on your own." Ye Xinya gave a fox-like smile.
Zhao Min clicked his tongue faintly. Wang Li Lei's name wasn't famous at the underworld but the title of Wang Family's head is more than famous. Wang Family had never directly involved with the underworld but their place at the underworld is deemed as prestigious.
The young head of Wang Family was said to be cold-blooded. He studied under Suan Lung directly only to kill his own uncle and become the rightful head of the family. His deed for being able to kill his own blood relative was deemed as a perfect example in the underworld. With his position, being Suan Lung's next successor was precisely perfect.
"I do understand what you came from, but he isn't a man from our world. Do you think he has what it take to strive? Our pride is deeper than the ocean Suan Lung. If he let us down, we will be the one to strike him down." Zhao Min uttered and felt a chill coming from the person beside Suan Lung.
Tang Guanyu and Ye Xinya froze their smiles. Their eyes stared at the dark storm forming upon the young man. The word strike down was like a switch to Wang Li Lei.
"You would see." Wang Li Lei's confidence brought a smile to his Shifu. The three words he spoke could be interpreted as confident words but also a threat. To Wang Li Lei, if they do dare to take a step toward him, he wouldn't let them off with their lives of limbs intact. To others outside the rounded table, they would take Wang Li Lei's words as nothing but arrogance and deemed him worthless like a dog who could only bark but not bite. Yet as people who had stayed in the underworld they knew just how hellish he sounded.
Now, he would stop playing nice. Let the hell let loose if it is for the sake of the girl.
When he decided to become Suan Lung's successor, he knew many people would come for him and Xiao Yun and it was time for him to use whatever he has to protect her.
"Alright, alright." Tang Guanyu raised his hand over the table and glanced over to Wang Li Lei gently. "I apologize for their rudeness, Mr. Wang. I do think you know where we are coming from. It is our responsibility as the big Three to make sure the peace in the underworld to be free from the harm of another Country. But even if they seem to oppose you, we aren't your enemy. And-" he glanced over to his two friends and scolded. "You two know that we have no single candidates for the next successor don't you?"

Dream Dungeon
Welcome to the dream dungeon. Ely suddenly finds himself in a mysterious dungeon accessed only through sleeping. Many people are drawn into this dream world, confused and mystified. Those in this dungeon must kill monsters to survive; maybe even each other. Join Ely as he struggles to survive a ruthless environment. What replaces his rest is untold trauma. What seems like an innocent game trope turns into a nightmare. This is a story of tragedy and the path to ultimate power. All in the hopes of an uncertain survival. _________ This fiction has NOT been abandoned. I made a haughty promise earlier to not worry because I'll continue this series, and with things lately, I've only proved myself a liar. Further promises dwindled, and I've lost trust. So many things have been going on recently that I've been booked. I will refrain from making any future guarantees or promises as my busy schedule will stay with me for a long long while. Time for me to actually spend on writing and revising won't appear until at the least November 19. I won't say expect that's when I'll restart, but you can expect expecting it to maybe happen. That's really shallow. But with everything going on, I've let my small reading base down. I apologize. I still stick by my statement though that I won't abandon this project. I plan to stick it to the end, no matter the delay. Most importantly, thank you everyone; readers who both like and dislike my work. I appreciate your time spent on my dumb imagination. Stay toasty my readers in this winter season. Cheers. UPDATE: We're back on track. Thank you for your patience. Any future readers, heyo! Glad you're here. UPDATE 2: So far it's been 21 days since I last uploaded a chapter. The best thing done for any fiction, no matter how good it is, is that it continues, and I have a bad history with that. 1 fiction on hiatus and already more delays with less than 20 chapters in this fiction. I've been very preoccupied with adding more things to do in my life rather than actually committing to any particular thing. That applies primarily to this. I cannot abandon this, as busy as my future looks and will look as I get busier and busier. Someday, I hope, I will be able to sit down and just write. just. write. But for now, I ask for patience. I suppose I'm glad this fiction hasn't picked up so that I don't disappoint too many people if any really. But I need to commit and it's going to happen sometime and sometime soon. No more flowery words. I'll see you later. UPDATE 3: It's very evident I won't be able to pick up this story for a while. With AP Testing, competitions, and other things I am busier than ever. But I must complete this fiction. I have too. Until next time. UPDATE 4: It is now the summer. I owe everyone an apology. Chances are, nobody's around to see this, and that is okay. I only blame myself for this sort of brokenness of a fiction, not that it is actually that bad but I am just exaggerating it for dramatic effect.But what's not exaggerated is the severity of my broken promise. I apologize for my naive claims about finishing a novel that I couldn't finish and that I didn't have the discipline to finish. Nor the skills, really, I was and am still an immature writer.What is to place now? I want to make it clear I understand this is my fault. I will man up to this. And I will accept any criticism. I understand I messed up. Reading Stephen King's On Writing made it clear to me that I need to do two things:Read lots.And write lots.I have done neither. If I don't have the time to read often, how do I expect to write? I need to become more experienced. I need to become a serious writer.So if I want to dream of continuing, I need to at least fulfill both requirements. I enjoy writing. I haven't written seriously outside of school in a while. I planned to write this summer and finish this. I made a lot of promises that I didn't keep.So there's that. I won't enact any self-pity, or be foolishly obsessed. What I did was wrong, and I must deal with it. I let down readers. And I apologize.I hope I can find forgiveness. This is a writer's sin.I won't promise I'll finish this. I intend to finish this, at some point, because writing is fun and I want to write. But how things are don't reflect that. Maybe I'll finish this at some point. Maybe I won't. I won't be naive to make that promise.I thank everyone who has read this if this is the end. If not, and hopefully not, I thank everyone who is to read future chapters. I thank everyone who allowed me to live in the miniscule little dream of mine as I passed my days. I thank everyone who cares enough to read this. Until next time, peace everyone. Thank you. You are all great readers and great people. I wish everyone the best in whatever reading/writing endeavors follow you henceforth.
