《Marriage in Corrosive Love》C23. Can You Call Me Mom?

Shen Qingkong knew what Chen Cheng was thinking about, but she did not want to explain, and refused, “Thanks for your care, Teacher Wang. It will be ok.”
Chen Cheng was still not relieved. He wanted to say something, but Lin Sisi interrupted him impatiently, “Hey, hurry up! Let’s get on the bus. Let’s get down to the business first.”
“Teacher Wang, take care of the students.” By saying so, Shen Qingkong got on the bus stopping on the roadside together with Lin Anbei.
Lin Sisi followed them to get on the bus. But she did not sit next to Lin Anbei, but a strong man in the back row, flirting.
Shen Qingkong could not help frowning. She choked back to say nothing. She just hugged the slim Lin Anbei into her arms, and tapped on his back gently, “Have a sleep if you are sleepy. I’m always here.”
Lin Anbei had always in panic these days, and failed to have a good rest. Hugged by his favorite aunt, he felt tired, and went asleep.
...
Seeing that the cash of 500 thousand yuan was put into the suitcase and delivered to her, Lin Sisi was so excited that her face turned red, “Teacher Shen is so rich. I’ve apologize for my offense before.”
Unwilling to see the greedy look of Lin Sisi, Shen Qingkong said directly, “As long as Ms. Lin signs on the Adoption Agreement, the other 500 thousand yuan will be transferred to your account immediately.”
“Be at ease. I’ll keep my faith. Although the boy destroys my life, I’m lucky that he can be liked by a rich person like you, and I can acquire a large fortune. I’ll never make troubles.”
After saying so, Lin Sisi went away arm in arm with that man happily, giving no glance at Lin Anbei.

It was almost the noon. They were angry after rushing about. Shen Qingkong went to a McDonald’s nearby with Lin Anbei.
Shen Qingkong bought a lot of foods for Lin Anbei. However, he had no appetite now. He lowered his head, on his mind.
Shen Qingkong hugged Lin Anbei in her arms, and sighed. She knew the grieved pains abandoned by parents, but she did not know how to comfort the boy.
After a time, Lin Anbei could not bear and said in a crying voice, “Aunt Shen, could you please not sell me? I’ll earn a lot of money after I grow up.”
Shen Qingkong was astonished and then understood. Lin Sisi said that she gave birth to Lin Anbei and raised him for money when she made troubles before.
Such adult words were taken seriously by innocent children.
“Stupid boy.” Shen Qingkong rubbed the head of Lin Anbei, “Aunt Shen will never sell Beibei. You are the pride and joy of me.”
This was really a poor child.
Some past events that she tried her best to forget were recalled. Shen Huan hugged Lin Anbei tightly due to deep-rooted pains with time passing by. After a while, she said in a hoarse voice, “Beibei, would you please call me mom? We’ll be family members in the future.”
Facing upward and staring at Shen Qingkong, Lin Anbei suddenly rushed into her arms. Embracing her neck with his slim arms, he called out in a load voice, “Mom!” As if he wanted to affirm something, he said again, “Mom!”
His favorite Aunt Shen would be his mom in the future. He was not an orphan any more.
As for that woman, she was nothing in opinion of Lin Anbei.
After knowing that he would not be abandoned, Lin Anbei got excited. He was very happy and took a drumstick to eat.
All their actions were seen by somebody else.
Thanks everyone very much; your support is really greatly appreciated. We will try our best to provide steady updating. ❤❤❤❤

The Loyal Ones [Dark Biopunk Fantasy]
TLDR; A slave monster survives horror, war and servitude, while trying to live with himself. Thralls are a race of monstrous slave soldiers, in a universe where biological magic takes the place of technology. Centuries ago, their ancestors were desperate humans, who volunteered to be transformed for the Poison War. Today their unfortunate descendants are still soldiers and laborers. In contract law they are 'corporate wards'; slaves owned largely by arms dealers. Dally Harper starts this story as a champion cage fighter. He is one of the 'lucky' ones. It's all downhill from there. Content Warning: Explicit violence and gore, slavery, implied sexual assault. None of these are framed as positive or glorified, however they do have a strong impact on the plot and main characters.

Their immediate wealth crumbled as they suffered for their ignorance and cruelty, becoming cursed to be Flesh Hoarders--ones who must live by eating the flesh and magic of another individual. Once they were rejected by their brother and sister cities of their country of Vaikoln, they were excluded from the rest, hidden in the void--never to interact with the world again. Suddenly, they show in the progressing city of Yulin-dai to remind the world that they will never be forgotten. Elanya Shunra wants nothing more than to enjoy her summer studying her rare Moon Magic and leaving all the other students in the dust. When she and her best friends get trapped in a burning airport in the progressing city of Yulin-dai, after hoping to spend a productive week in the capital, Zalatine, she realizes that the exciting and relaxing summer is not turning into the thing that she envisioned, nor one that she wanted to experience herself. Rigesh Altren left his stint in the military to find solace in Yulin-dai instead of returning home to his family in the countryside.

The Mermaid's Shoal
Elfyn O Se has lived by the laws of the sea his whole life. He'd go by Elf to his friends if he had any left, but at least his crew are willing to work with him, and it's not because he accidently cursed them all.

He might have a chance to break the binds for himself and his crew, if he can pull it off. There's just one problem; a rival mermaid called Anwen. As mysterious as she is terrifying - and adamant that Elf can't win - she offers an alternative to break the curse if the crew can help her get home. The crew of the Ossory now finds themselves caught in an odyssey brimming with magic and monsters. Battling against champions of terrible adversaries, mysterious lights from the deep, and kleptomatic selkies who deal in blood, Elf is faced with a choice.
