《Legend of Concubine's Daughter Minglan 知否知否 應是綠肥紅瘦》C35 - A Guideline on Improving Living Conditions (2)

Sheng Hong was talked into her assertion and began to feel sorry, so he gave a soothing glance to Wang shi. Witnessing the scene, Old Madam Sheng quirked up the corners of her mouth and said finally, "Madam, pleased take the bother to teach Minglan how to manage house affairs and let her learn more."
Sheng Hong immediately echoed, "Yes, Old Madam. She should have taught Minglan." While speaking he covertly pulled Wang shi's sleeve, who also chimed in in a hurry, "Minglan is also my daughter. Teaching her is my duty."
Changfeng wore a face of worry, staring at Minglan imploringly. While Minglan forced herself not to turn to him and only stood well-mannered in front of Old Madam Sheng, listening to her reprimand. Rulan shot out challenging look to Molan who remained an indifferent face because she didn't a bit care about the fate of those servants except for feeling a little embarrassed.
Wang shi was a speedy act-taker, so on the day, she brought with her steward Mama and Liu Kun's wife to the House of Clear Dusk. Minglan was left to sit next to them and watch, and Rulan, who tried every means to come, sat beside Minglan, waiting to enjoy how Wang shi would play her power.
Liu Kun's wife convened all the girl servants in the House of Clear Dusk to stand in order in the yard. Wang shi was sitting up in the main chair and Cuiwei served with every caution her a cup of ginseng tea. Wang shi took a sip of it and screened with her eyes the girls one by one. Though they were playful, they knew their day was coming. Everyone stood obediently, shoulders locked, head bowed, and breath constrained.
"...I tolerated you since you are young, but I didn't expect that you should take advantage of sixth young lady's kindness to bully her! How dare you!... You may read the left chapter on Flying Lines (click the link below) :D

Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!

8 278Uprising - the half fiends story
3000 years ago demons invaded. The battle between good and evl was short. Evil won. Now a few free cities live in fear and in hiding. Scared of those who rule and the taint that spreads not just across the world but within their societies as well the world fell into gloom and despair as some races massacres, some farmed like animals as food sources and some became the tools and expendable resources of the fiends. Traditional enemies are enemies no more. All struggle to survive against the fiends, and old enmities and stories from the past are just that, stories, of no impact. All those not part of the fiendish hierarchy struggle to survive, and in that struggle the few free, hidden cities are the last refuges.
