《Female Immortal's Return to Earth》0009 - Up to No Good
Advertisement
Beside his empty dishes, she finds a keycard to access the penthouse from the elevator and a note.
If you go out there is a key to access the penthouse, without it you can't enter the penthouse again so make sure to keep it on you at all time.
Your Long Jin
Her Long Jin? Does he think they are lovers or something? A bit of astonishment briefly flickers in Yun Feng's cold eyes at his way of addressing himself in the note. Wasn't it a bit too shameless?
To boot that they met for the first time yesterday they are only supposed to be business partners and also at most housemates. They aren't in any way in that type of relationship. Or at least she thinks they don't, as she doesn't have much experience, she can't be sure.
For today she would go out on the streets. She felt that even though she has her memories from her past life she needed to refamiliarize herself. Even if it isn't to refamiliarize herself she would still go out to relax a bit and thinks some things over.
Yun Feng left the apartment complex and stepped out on the street. The complex was located in the southeast part of the city, by the sea. It was in an area for rich people and it consisted of a total of 3 buildings. The building she just left is the tallest of them while the other two are only seven stories high.
From the area, it would take about 25 minutes to get into the city center by bus. But even if the bus would be quicker, since she still has no money Yun Feng just decides to walk leisurely.
By the time she reaches the city center around an hour and a half has already passed.

She takes her time looking in around the shops, the four different parks located in the four cardinal directions. Each of the parks is decorated in colors of the seasons. North is white for winter, east is pink or spring, south is blue for summer and west is orange for autumn. There is a festival each season and each of them is located in their respective cardinal directions when they are ongoing.
As it was summer the summer festival would start in a few days and last for about a month. For now, Yun Feng just walks through the parks and looks at the different color themes.
Yun Feng enters a clothing store filled with various casual clothes a while after she walked through the parks. Leisurely she looks through the clothing racks sometimes finding things that attract her interest. No store attendant takes the chance to get close to her as they can sense her giving off a cold and unapproachable aura.
Suddenly the door to the store opens, Lin Wanyun enters and a store attendant directly welcomes her. She chats with the attendant for a bit and then lets her gaze wander the store.
When her gaze lands on Yun Feng, who is currently looking through a rack of long dresses, her eyes show a bit of surprise and bitterness. Yet the surprise and bitterness quickly change into fake smiles as she walks close to Yun Feng and starts to talk to her.
"Well hello, miss Yun. Are you satisfied with catching Mr. Long's interests?"
Yun Feng looks keeps looking through the dresses and ignores her, still giving off the same cold unapproachable aura. But this didn't bother Lin Wanyun at all as she continues.
"You know, I used to have an acquaintance with the same name as you. Or rather acquaintance I saw her as a rival yet she seemed to only see me as a pebble on the road. Every time I threw her a challenge she ignored me.

Because she took my place as the top agent, I decided to get rid of her..."
A light lits up in Yun Feng's eyes as she hears what Lin Wanyun says. Lin Wanyun didn't notice this at all. But that light quickly faded at what Lin Wanyun said next.
"...but heavens seemed to not want me to dirty my own hands because it seems someone took care of her before me. She disappeared from this world eleven days ago in an "accident"."
Lin Wanyun gave off a wicked smile and continued.
"I don't know who the one who helped me is, only that he is a foreign man.
Then now yesterday you appeared, you have the same name as her and it seems like you will go against me as well. You stole my deal yesterday, my husband! Long Jin can only be mine..."
Yun Feng turns around a bit to look at Lin Wanyun with her cold, crystal clear, black eyes.
"If you want him, take him. He and I are and will always only be business partners."
"You..."
While Lin Wanyun unreasonably fumes up at what she said, Yun Feng walks past her and leaves the store.
"Yun Feng, just wait. I will never let you have an easy life near my man!"
Says Lin Wanyun as she reaches into her own pocket to get her phone, and looks at Yun Feng walking out into the streets. She quickly dialed a number and put her phone by her ear.
"Yeah hey, I got a job for you."

Human in a Demon's Hide
I had recently enrolled in the military as a lowly footsoldier. Oh, before you could proceed any further, let me tell you about myself. I ain’t some patriotic soldier that’ll lay down my life for the sake of my country. Hell no! That shit is for the people with loose screws! I had only a few goals when I joined the army: March into battle, kick ass, and earn me some cash! Achieving glory on the way wouldn’t hurt. I just need the money to feed my little brother and sister. Their world is all I want to protect. The glory is for washing clean the stains that my father left on the family name. We became such a joke in the country that our mother abandoned us. I don’t know if he really did betray the country, but I don’t care. For my little siblings to suffer the same mockery and humiliation that I did is unacceptable! To protect the smiles of my only family, I would do anything. Yet, life knows to shit on you when things are just getting good. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, author-san here!This is my first story, set up in a fantasy world. It's based on the medieval and steam era where magic is rare and alchemy is used widely used as a weapon by people. There would be lots of action, adventure, betrayal, tragedy, romance, etc. ahead. Warnings-The mc is a bit mean and foul-mouthed, introvert. There would be strong language and lots of monologue narration by the MC. The stories are fast-paced and progressing faster. The chapters update would be unstable, depending on my daily life. You would get fast updates... or slow.Also, English isn't my first language. So don't expect perfect grammar :( P.S. - I would like some constructive critique and feedback!It fills my motivation gauge and increases that rate of chapter/week. (/>3

Redshirt: The Journey
Freedom and Order. Peace and War. Love and Hate. Hundreds of young children awaken in a damaged world, on the brink of societal collapse, witnessing the birth of an omnipotent system. Their roles are pre-determined, yet the very fabric of reality lie in their hands. The order of the world shapes them, just how they are free to shape the world in their disparate visions. Each choice, each action, each word, has consequences that reach far beyond their perception. Freedom or Order; ashes in the wind, or the gilded chains. Updates at least every Monday, Thursday, and every other Sarturday, (from 26/11/2021). This is primarily a story exploring what it means to be human, using a lens of a hopefully real-feeling fantasy world. This story is not a power fantasy or a traditional Litrpg , while it has elements of these genres, it will focus on how these tropes would influence real people and possibly Redshirt will break some of these tropes along the way. There will be a variety of different characters and perspectives, some you hate, some you love, and some that will frustrate. Just as all people do. I don't believe there will be anything overly traumatic or explicit, but it's better to be safe than sorry. There will be some heavy topics explored, the characters views do not reflect the authors; however, if there is an issue in how I present/understand these issues please do tell me, and I will try my best to rectify it.

The Intelligent Ogre (Dropped for remake)
This novel is having a remake I will have it up soon. I decided to have a remake because when I read my story again it felt like I tried too hard to make it understandable (low English level) for all yet it just looked bad. So, I decided to start over and add a new beginning, characters descriptions, etc. Even the plot and system I made was changed. I hope to see you there.
