The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time Chapter 187
Advertisement
The friendzone oblivious Ren Yuan has happily escort Shao Cheng next to his chair before thoughtfully and carefully placing dishes on Shao Cheng rice bowl while sometimes brazenly feeding him food.
And the whole time Shao Cheng has acted normal with everything that is happening, naturally opening his mouth every single time that Ren Yuan has begun to feed him with food, after all, he was completely used to Ren Yuan's sudden careful and thoughtful actions, particularly when they are eating.
Considering that it always happened even before the two of them have arrived in the Chang Capital, so it has already become a habit that the two of them don't even realize what their actions look like in other people's eyes.
Honestly, Shao Cheng doesn't see anything wrong about being taken care of by Ren Yuan since not only did he got used to it during their time together after appearing in the past but the previous life situation where Ren Yuan has always consider him first was already ingrained in his mind.
Therefore, Ren Yuan acting this kind and caring once in a while wasn't something new that Shao Cheng needed to keep his guard up, such a deeply ingrained habit is remarkably hard to control and even notice that there is something wrong about it.
And so, the three other people sitting opposite of them can only silently eat their breakfast while trying really hard to ignore the ambiguous and shameless young men that were unconsciously showing dog food so early in the morning.
"Whitey~ Here you go! I know you love this dish!"
"White, how about you feed me too? Hehehe, I know you like me the most!"
"Oh, you are thirsty? Here you go~ Be careful, the tea is a bit hot!"
Although, Ren Yuan's shameless showcase of being especially close to the young man has definitely caused the other three people indigestion with just how dark and twisted their expression has been the whole time.
Shortly, the normal and peaceful breakfast in Shao Cheng and Ren Yuan's eyes were eventually done causing the three people to feel extreme relief.
After they enter a different room where Shao Cheng and Ren Yuan were sitting in a comfortable chair while Pengfei was leaning in a wall a few distances away from them while having a curious expression on his face, its finally time to deal with the sibling's situation that was standing before them.
Soon the green-eyed young man to take a step forward while respectfully bowing his head and quickly being followed by the silent young woman that has been only observing the whole time.

"Young Master Cheng, My name is Li Shi while my younger sister's name is Li Mingzhu. Once again, please accept our heartfelt gratitude for saving and helping us dealt with our predicament."
Shao Cheng quickly narrowed his eyes after hearing the Illusive Treacherous Killer real name since this is the first time he has learned about it because even in the previous life, no one knows about the true identity of the person that has caused extraordinary unrest in the entire Chang Capital even after he was caught and dealt with.
Although there is one information that anyone in the previous life has known about this person which is one of the reasons why Shao Cheng is a bit curious about this young man's identity.
Base on the deep investigation that Pengfei has done, this Li Shi is truly a person that belongs to a merchant family and has grown into one of the small towns in the Chang Empire.
Yet, this Li Shi has been a person that has deep connections in the River and Lakes in the previous life which already tells Shao Cheng that there is definitely something more about this person than what they manage to investigate.
Yes, the River and Lakes, the Illusive Treacherous Killer in the previous life have been a river and lakes person, which definitely belongs to an evil sect rather than the righteous one.
And the crazed bloodshed caused by Li Shi has produced deep unrest between the Royal Courts and the River and Lakes that has remained uninvolved to what is happening in the Chang Empire.
For now, though, Shao Cheng has turned his attention to the silent Ren Yuan that has remained indifferent to the young man plight and has been more focused on playing with the strand of his hair while leaning upon his slender body in a lazy manner.
"Hm? Don't worry Little Cheng, I promise to help you deal with their problem, especially when I also need to deal with the Ding Family that has caused the incident that happened to us before."
"Ding Family?"
Suddenly Ren Yuan has straightened up while wrapping one of his arms around Shao Cheng's shoulder before his red lip has bent into a beautiful arc which brims with dangerous appearance along with a hard glint on his grey pupils causing the other people beside Shao Cheng to shudder by the sudden cold chill that appears in the entire room.
"Yeah, the Ding Family, the same people that have hunted us down before and is now the aristocrat family that this sibling supposed allied family has chosen to climb up with by sending these two beauties to the Ding family favored heir to play with."

Ren Yuan doesn't display any gentleness when it comes to dealing with other people, especially when it was someone that gives him uncomfortable feeling, causing the brother and sister attractive faces to pale an eery white when the family that they have been so close while growing up has betrayed them because of power, money, and status.
"Little Cheng you want the brother to work for you right? How about just sending him away when the problem is dealt with? I can help you with that since having him by your side would give you great danger."
Shao Cheng has blinked his eyes after suddenly hearing Ren Yuan's careful advice before certain information has abruptly emerged in his mind when he recalled the Ding Family in the previous life, although it wasn't important in his memories but he was able to connect some clues about it.
"It's not as simple as dealing with the low-rank Ding Family right?"
"Hahaha, Little Cheng is really so smart and excellent~"
Ren Yuan couldn't help but use his free hand to reach over and pinch the soft cheek of the young man which was ruthlessly slapped away, causing him great disappointment since Little Cheng isn't docile and obedient anymore.
"W-Wait! I already promise to serve Young Master Cheng in my entire life. No matter what the result of our problem will be, I couldn't just ignore and forget the vow I pledge to him. So, please allow me to stay and serve your side."
"Just like what my older brother has promise, please also allows me to serve the Young Master Cheng side."
Tsk… so annoying...
Ren Yuan that saw the way the sissy young man has kneeled down in the ground without any hesitation really cause him to have uncomfortable feelings, although the other young woman has further caused him to feel great irritation, especially after seeing those green pupils of the two siblings are always focused on Little Cheng figure.
Particularly, Ren Yuan doesn't like how the sissy young man was gazing on Shao Cheng figure, his intuition has been warning him that this person isn't allowed to stay by the young man's side.
"Then what can the two of you do? It's alright if your family friend has chosen another Aristocrat family to serve, but they just have to choose the Ding family to climb on! Honestly, I'll be frank with you, the Ding Family is one of the people from a member of the Royal Family! So tell me, are you willing to danger Little Cheng's life? Even his family will get into a disaster because of it!"
Shao Cheng couldn't help but turn his head to gaze upon the serious Ren Yuan that spoke in a ruthless and brutal manner toward the siblings that were now shuddering in fright and other emotions, which those cold grey pupil has swiftly turned around to also gaze back at him.
And in a split second, those grey pupil has quickly turned soft and friendly, while a warm large hand has begun to pat his smaller one in a soothing manner while softly murmuring that Ren Yuan will never let anything bad happen to him as long as he was by his side.
Fortunately, Ren Yuan has quickly turned his attention back to the shivering duo after hearing the Royal family being mentioned mixing up in their problem, completely missing the sudden bright light that has emerged in Shao Cheng sapphire eyes.
"Li Shi and Li Mingzhu right? Let me asked the two of you this important question after we deal with the Ding Family and you decided to stay by Little Cheng side. What can the two of you do if the Royal Family has suddenly found out that Little Cheng has done something to their people because of your existence? Will you be able to protect him from them?"
"... But… what about you?"
Li Shi couldn't help but ask while unable to figure out the chaotic emotion he was suddenly feeling inside him, however, after raising his head up, he has instantly gazed upon dazzling grey pupils that was filled overwhelming determination and resolute emotion.
"Heh, in this entire world, I am one of the few people that can protect Little Cheng. Besides, it doesn't matter if they are from the Royal Family, no one can easily hurt the people I wanted to protect without facing the consequences of their actions."
It was really such a daring declaration with overwhelming self-confidence, especially when the word the man has just spoken was a crime and treason itself.
Nonetheless, Shao Cheng has understood that there aren't any lies on all of what Ren Yuan has spoken this time, it was expressed in a complete and wholehearted manner, causing his lip to bent into a warm smile.
For once, Shao Cheng being under someone protection felt so pleasant and wonderful feeling to experience...
Once in while being protected like this... felt so great...

I was Born the Unloved Twin
You've probably heard this sort of story before. Once upon a time, blah blah blah a boy and a girl fell love and everything was beautiful and perfect, except for this thing called life getting in their way. He was this cool foreign prince and she was basically perfect. Really it's a very boring run of the mill story. I'll even spoil it for you, they kill the villainess at the end. Not the type of story I'd read personally. So where do I fit into this?Apparently I'm her older twin sister and the very very lucky fiance to the foreign prince. You know, the dead villainess? Sucks I know. Now I get to do it all over again from the beginning.Curse my life ------ So you're somewhat interested in what this thing is about and looking to see if it's even worth reading? Let's get the worst of it out of the way first: This is a boring story, very tedious, mundane and downright just boring. It's too slow, the characters are too confusing & make possibly retarded choices. It's an isekai/reborn type Slice of Life novel that plays on the villainess noble girl trope but the MC gets no OP cheats, no magical powers, not even some satisfying face slapping or such self-fulfillment fantasy. Wow, I'm doing a terrible job advertising this thing. If you're somehow still interested, if you were ever interested how an average modern person, reborn with all their host's memories, could live out their life in this situation, mending personal relationships one step at a time, or wondered what happened in between all the time skips in other novels, maybe give Unloved Twin a try. This is an awkward novel, the pacing is slow, and there is no time skips. For some reason still, I really love this little story I'm making. Talk to me on: https://discord.gg/ARkSMFPbew

Hymn of Ignis
If a man is told to walk from the moment of his awakening to the world, what will he do? He will walk. What if along his path he stumbles and falls? He will get up, and walk.

What if along his path the sky changes color and light no longer guides the way? He will remain on his path, and walk. What if along his path the very ground gives way to oblivion? He will press on, and walk. What if along his path he becomes more than a man? Will he stop? Release schedule will be either weekly, or biweekly, depending on the time I have available. Hopefully that will change for the better along the way. As for the story itself, opinions matter a lot! I appreciate both soft, and hard criticism, so don't hold your punches.

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!

An Extra-Ordinary Story about Ordinary People
In a different world, a different reality, where ordinary people occasionaly have extra-ordinary powers for no particular reason, we follow a number of characters, trying their best to live in this strange yet normal world. We have our first character, a currently nameless but sentinent creature who happened to find himself in the body of a strange fungus after an unknown incident that robbed him of not only his former body but of his memory, as well. Secondly, we follow Smith, a high-standing man who doesn't even need to explain which Smith he is, on top of the world, yet human enough to meet said fungus. And thirdly, we have another nameless character, who is burdened by the ability to summon things that he doesn't want. A charming gang, who will (most likely) meet at some point. --- All and all, it's a twist on the common super-hero world, where all super-heroes have somehow dissappeared, but not the possibility for new ones. The series that feature the mushroom-dude are the 123 ones, the stories that feature Smith are the ABC ones, and the ones that feature our newest character, the summoner-dude, are the abc ones. Neat, huh? Also, just a word of warning? The 123 ones are kind wierd, and you can skip the first few chapters and go straight to the ABC ones without missing too much. But I'd rather you didn't, since i really enjoyed writing them. In ABC and abc, the format changes to a more typical form, with proper grammar and stuff. So if you dont like the 123, I'd love it if you gave the ABC a chance :^) Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it!
