Chapter 51: An Older Brother
Many people already knew the Lu Corporation is one of the top influential forces in S city. Yet, due to Lu Chen’s new look, the students around him didn’t know who he was and are shocked by what he said.
Kiss my father’s position goodbye?
Gao Jinhai never expects that the person in front of him would say this to him. At first, Gao Jinhai didn't believe Lu Chen's words and thought he is just faking it. However, as he thought about how Lu Chen is consistently talking down to him the entire time, he starts to believe it. Even after his lackeys said his identity, Lu Chen still didn't care.
“You… who are you?” Gao Jinhai shivers in fear. The person that he thought of to be a peasant might be a wolf in disguise. Seeing how their boss is trembling, his lackeys knew they might have messed with somebody they shouldn't have.
“You don’t need to know. And you are not qualified to know. Now scram.” Lu Chen's tone is flat. However, it's like a deep dark abyss that cannot be fandom by ordinary people. The crowd looks at Lu Chen and then back to Gao Jinhai, wondering what Gao Jinhai will do.
Hearing Lu Chen continues to look down on him, Gao Jinhai wants to rip his mouth off. But seeing the indifferent gaze on the man's face, plus not knowing his background, made Gao Jinhai stop that train of thought. The only thing he could do now is grit his teeth. Gao Jinhai made the smart decision and walked away.
The crowd is stunned in silence for a few moments, and then they start to cheer at the sight of Gao Jinhai leaving. Gao Jinhai had always been flaunting his father’s influence over them like he was the one with the power. But finally, he has met his maker.

“Be quiet! This is a library!” Before the excitement could hit the maximum, it was quickly shut down by the scream of the librarian. The crowd immediately turns quiet as they didn’t want to leave the library and miss the sight of their angel.
Lu Chen turns around to Ye Meixiu, who was smiling at him. Seeing her smile, Lu Chen couldn’t help but scold her, “You little dummy. You should have just downright rejected him, instead of giving him so many random excuses.” Even though Lu Chen is lecturing Ye Meixiu, there is no anger in his voice. Instead, there is only worry. It sounds more like an older brother worrying if his little sister is injured or not.
“But even if I did reject classmate Gao, he would have continued to force himself on me in a more direct way, brother Chen.” Ye Meixiu starts to pout as she knew what type of person Gao Jinhai is, and she felt wrong being lectured by Lu Chen.
Lu Chen stops his lecturing and looks at her in surprise, “When did you notice it was me?” He’s surprised that Ye Meixiu can figure out it was him. Even if Lu Chen didn't know what Lu Chen look like with long hair, it doesn't change how age had affected his look. How he looked when he is a child was much different from how he looks now.
Ye Meixiu smiles as she explains, “Of course I knew it was brother Chen. Your voice and stature are really unique.”
How could you figure out it was me from just my voice? There were a dozen other male students in the lobby that had similar stature to him. So the only thing she could use to figure out who he was is from his voice, yet Ye Meixiu hasn’t talked to him in such a long time.

As Lu Chen was lost in his thought, Ye Meixiu pouts even more from how Lu Chen ignores her, “Brother Chen, why didn’t you say hi to me earlier.” She had already notice Lu Chen the moment he had walked back into the lobby with his books, and she had noticed that he knew who she was as well.
Yet, seeing how Lu Chen was continuing to read his book, not minding the problems she was facing with Gao Jinhai, made her feel indignant.

Dimension Records (Ring of Reincarnation )
A Normal day in Tokyo a 31 year old politician get killed, by a gang choking him to death and gets reincarnated from a small world where not much about the universe is known, to a world that was first out of every world in cosmos.
8 81The Undertaker from Mokvas
I've created The Undertaker from Mokvas as spin-off web series of my previous two books Skoricovnik. The story is taking place in so-called Northern Realm, mainly in city of Mokvas (totally dissimilar to Moscow). The story is part of a greater project called Royal Dirties - the comic books publishing house.
8 168The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.

8 138SMG4: Infinity Woomy (Mario X Meggy)
It's a squidtastic war between the good guys lead by Meggy, and the bad guys lead by Dark Squid. If you are a fan of many Splatoon GMOD/SFM animations and SMG4 (and Mario X Meggy as well), then this story is for you. Make sure you read both parts of Ask Meggy Anything first, because what's inside those are important to the story.
