Feng Wu was standing behind Chaoge and Young Master Mu didn’t see her when he walked in.
“Young Master Mu —” Ye Yafei said in an ingratiating tone.
“I was told that the person throwing mud at Elegant Ink Gallery is right here? Step out now and let me see your face.”
Young Master Mu entered the room in a familiar manner. He had a large entourage and someone had already set down a chair for him.
Ye Yafei pointed at Chaoge and Feng Wu with an indignant expression, but she was smirking inwardly. “Those two were the ones who slandered Elegant Ink Gallery. We saw it with our own eyes and we can attest to it!”
“Really?” Crossing his legs, Young Master Mu found a comfortable position in the chair and shook his leg. He looked sidelong at Chaoge. “Young lady, you guys are pretty bold to discredit Elegant Ink Gallery like that.”
Chaoge didn’t like this guy at all and she glared back at him.
“Oh my —” Young Master Mu glanced at Chaoge out of the corner of his eye. “Someone’s pissed. Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of my name before.”
The Young Master Mu who had friends in both high and low places was capable of getting a third-ranked official fired!
Everyone would greet him with great respect!
Chaoge glowered at Young Master Mu!
“You, come here —” Mu beckoned Chaoge over. “I’ve never met someone this ugly and this grumpy.”
This ugly?!
Chaoge was furious and she went on glaring at Young Master Mu.
“Why, that’s a very peevish girl over there. Do you have any idea who I am? What’s with that attitude? You, slap her —”
Mu gave a wave of his hand.
Ye Yafei smiled in satisfaction.
Elegant Ink Gallery was Young Master Mu’s property and those two girls were finished! She was sure of it!
Meanwhile, two stalwart men went up to Chaoge and were ready to slap her!

Just then —
“Young Master Mu, very impressive,” said a cold voice behind Chaoge.
Mu snorted. “You’re with her? Very well. Slap her, too!”
How dare these people slander Elegant Ink Gallery? His Brother Feng the Third was the biggest shareholder of the business! Young Master Mu was very upset.
Ye Yafei laughed so hard that she had a stomachache. Feng Wu, you’re so doomed!
Huo Yin and the others exchanged looks and they all gloated at Feng Wu’s predicament.
Jin Yuntao was exasperated!
He quickly stepped out and stood in front of Feng Wu, blocking her from Young Master Mu’s sight. He then cupped his hands at the young lord. “Chaoge is too young to understand what she’s done. I’ll make them apologize to you. Young Master Mu, please forgive them for my sake.”
“Why, isn’t it Jin Yuntao?” Mu recognized the teenager, smiled a little, and waved him off. “Mind your own business. There, out of my way.”
After that, Young Master Mu rose to his feet and went up to Chaoge.
He then sensed a pair of cold eyes on him. Turning in the direction of that gaze, Young Master Mu saw a face, which scared him out of his wits!
Meanwhile, in Northern Feng Mansion.
The crown prince glanced at Feng as he marched out.
Feng walked behind him and reported in a level tone, “Miss Feng Wu was here because she needed Young Lord Feng to buy a manor on her behalf.”
“A manor?” Jun Linyuan frowned.
“Grand Secretary Fang, the Feng manor’s next door neighbor, is retiring soon. Many people are trying to purchase that house.” Hence, Miss Feng wasn’t here on a date, my dear crown prince. Weren’t you a little too hard on Young Lord Feng?
She would rather get Feng Xun than himself to buy a manor?! So, Feng Xun was more important to her than he was? The crown prince clenched his fists in rage!

Feng was rendered speechless. In order to prevent his master from beating up Feng Xun again, he changed the subject right away. “Miss Feng Wu is in World Tower now.”
The crown prince said arrogantly, “Why would I care where she is?!”
Feng hesitated. “But Miss Feng Wu doesn’t have an entrance card to World Tower —”

Feng said, “But Miss Feng Wu doesn’t have an entrance card to World Tower.”
Jun Linyuan smirked. “Tch — she’ll be thrown out, then! That’s ridiculous, getting into World Tower without an entrance card. Does she think she owns World Tower now?”
Feng smacked his forehead. What was he supposed to do with his young master…
He made another attempt. “I think Young Master Mu is going after Miss Wu now.”
Jun Linyuan halted abruptly!
“As in Mu the Sixth? Feng Xun’s minion?”
Feng nodded. “That’s him, the sixth son of Lord Mu. He’s very fond of pretty women and has 99 young maids and concubines at home already. I heard that…”
Jun Linyuan headed for World Tower right away.
He only took a couple of steps before turning around and glaring at Feng. “I’m not going because of that Feng Wu!”
“No, of course not…” Feng nodded immediately. “World Tower bought some Green Cloud Tea recently, which is a rare delicacy. Didn’t you say you wanted to try some yesterday?”
Feng sighed inwardly. Other than looking after the crown prince’s daily life, he had to be ready to make excuses for the latter as necessary.
“That’s right!” The crown prince set out happily.
Feng was speechless.
Meanwhile, in World Tower.
Young Master Mu’s head went blank.
For he looked past Duan Chaoge and saw Feng Wu’s face.
That face… No matter how forgetful he became, he would never forget such an incredible beauty!
He had seen her just earlier today at Northern Feng Mansion!
But she had been talking to Feng at the time.
Only a handful of people could talk to Feng as an equal!
“Who… are you?” Young Master Mu looked at Feng Wu suspiciously.
She was so pretty. He would be over the moon if he could have her as his own.
Ye Yafei interjected right away. “She’s Feng Wu! That genius from five years ago, but she’s an imbecile and a cripple now!”
Feng Wu?
Young Master Mu found that name very familiar, but not from five years ago… He thought he had heard it only today.
All of a sudden!
Young Master Mu blanched!
He remembered where he had heard it!
In Northern Feng Mansion!
At that time, his Brother Feng had been yelling in his room, “I like Feng Wu! You heard me!”
Brother Feng liked Feng Wu? As in the Feng Wu standing right here?!
So, she was his sister-in-law!
Huo Yin had no idea what was going on in Young Master Mu’s head. Seeing how he stared at Feng Wu, Huo Yin thought that the young master was furious, so she added, “That’s her! She slandered Elegant Ink Gallery for selling fake antiques! We told her that Elegant Ink Gallery was your business but she was still —”
“Shut up!” Young Master Mu slapped Huo Yin hard!
“Smack —”
Huo Yin spun around at the crisp slap and everyone else watched in bewilderment!
No one had seen that coming.
Wasn’t Huo Yin Ye Yafei’s minion? Wasn’t Ye Yafei on Young Master Mu’s side?
Ye Yafei was the most astonished of them all.
She stared at Mu in disbelief. “Young Master Mu, you…”
Mu ignored Ye Yafei. He quickly went up to Feng Wu and beamed at her. “Sister-in-law, I’m so glad to see you here! Hahaha! Sorry about what happened just then. My bad. I didn’t recognize you. Please forgive me. I —”
Immediately, all eyes were on Feng Wu!
Sister-in-law?!
Why would Young Master Mu call her that?
What was going on here?!
Feng Wu cut Mu off with a frown. “What sister-in-law? Watch your language!”

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
