“Let me ask you a question. There are five people standing on the railway tracks, and then there is only one person standing on the route the other fork leads to. The train’s brake is not functioning at all, and this means that it will soon hit anything in front of it. There is a wrench right next to you. With a gentle push, you can change the tracks of the train to direct it onto your chosen route. What choice would you make? Would you hit five or only the one? And why?”... more>>

“Of course I will push the switch and hit the one person. When there is no other choice, it’s always worth trading one life for five lives.”

“Have you ever thought more deeply about it? Those five people were playing on the train tracks, and it was their fate to get hit; the other person was just walking on the road in perfectly good condition, crossing the rail tracks enroute to his house, and it was his fate to return home safely. But your gentle push reversed everyone’s fate. People who shouldn’t be dead, died, and people who shouldn’t live, lived. Do you still think this is fair? Do you still think it is worth it?” <<less

Xiao Chiye said, “You are an a**hole.”... more>>

Shen Zechuan said, “It isn’t easy to find like-minded a**holes.” <<less

Yan Xie cleared his throat. Straightening his sleeves, he held his head up and puffed up his chest. Like a model, he crossed the road with a perfect catwalk and walked over to the silver Benz. First, he rapped on the window with the knuckle of his index finger, then with much restraint, he opened the door to the passenger seat.... more>>

“Are you alright?” Jiang Ting had a hand on the steering wheel, and he spoke suspiciously, “Just now, you were walking over like a peac*ck flaunting its feathers, and you nearly got knocked down by a police vehicle.”

Yan Xie turned his head around.

A police-issued Iveco had made an emergency break at the traffic light. Along the windows were the faces of a dozen trainee policemen arranged neatly, and they were all staring in astonishment at Vice Captain Yan. <<less

Chang An couldn’t understand why it is that everyone can tolerate the thought of their fathers dying, but just he can’t.... more>>

Therefore, carrying the slightest sliver of hope– he asked his foster father, for the first time in his life, a request.

“Zhe Yan, can you not die?” <<less

Bespectacled Xu angrily said, “Have you ever thought that that group of field personnel thinks with their muscles? They’re boors charging around like farm animals, boors!” ... more>>

Xue Xiaolu said comfortingly, “Yes, yes, Master Xu Ruchong. We’re nerds, and nerds will save the world. Should we sink to their level?”  <<less

It seemed that in all of London, there was only one embrace such as this left. 

At that moment, she suddenly thought of a phrase: Friends until death.... more>>

But this phrase was too heavy. The word ‘death’ made it seem a little tragic and she hoped that these people will never have to have anything to do with the word ‘tragic’ for the rest of their lives.

Well then………sworn friends.

If that wasn’t enough, then she could add another two words after that.

They were her sworn friends for life. <<less

He didn’t really like to interact with other people. Zhou Luoyang could understand that. For some people, a friend was someone contained within a very, very limited sphere that couldn’t hold very many people. But those who won their approval got to see the true side of them.... more>>

Zhou Luoyang had never really liked interacting with too many people; he always found it exhausting. But ever since he was small, everyone told him that social interaction was necessary. Without social interaction, life was incomplete. So for many years he forced himself to give it his all, but after meeting Du Jing, he gradually came to realize that he could still survive just fine with decreased social interaction. In fact, it even allowed him to feel more at ease. What could he have against that?

So he began to learn from Du Jing, deliberately downsizing his social circle and only investing his energy in things that truly interested him. Suddenly, he felt so much more relaxed. <<less

“…..Du Yue,” Qin Zhao suddenly says.... more>>

“What?” Du Yue turns to look at him.

Qin Zhao becomes tongue-tied once he meets those bright eyes of Du Yue’s. Chu Mingyun’s words from just now are hammering clearly in Qin Zhao’s chest, making him so nervous that he doesn’t know what to do. Luckily, he was born with an inexpressive face, and Du Yue isn’t someone who pays attention to details, Du Yue sees nothing.

Qin Zhao is left with nothing to say for half a beat before he speaks again with a dry throat: “Want a grape?” <<less

Although the sofa was quite shabby, the elasticity of it was still surprisingly good. Gu Fei pounced on it like a cannonball, causing Jiang Cheng to bounce up – feeling dizzy as if he was about to take off. ... more>>

He patted the sofa then stood up and also pounced on it.  

Gu Fei also bounced up.

 “Aren’t you being childish,” Gu Fei said, and then got up and pounced on it again.  

“You started it…” Jiang Cheng slanted slightly from that and fell on Gu Fei. <<less

Xue Xian silently looked Xuanmin up and down and asked, out of nowhere, "When did you shave your head and become a monk?"... more>>

Confused by his question, Xuanmin turned to Xue Xian. "When I was a child. Why?"

For some time, Xue Xian said nothing at all, only gazing intently at Xuanmin.

Seeing this, Xuanmin asked, "You don't believe me?"

 "It's not that," Xue Xian said. Suddenly, he reached out his hand and hooked his finger, gesturing for Xuanmin to come closer. "Come here."

"Hm?" Xuanmin still did not understand, but bent down anyway. He assumed Xue Xian had something to tell him that he didn't want the others to hear, so he waited sincerely for Xue Xian to speak.

But no words came –– only the beast's claw.

Squinting, Xue Xian touched Xuanmin's head and clicked his tongue. "Poor baby, you were so young when you shaved your head!" <<less

【Goodness, is that vendor selling miniature coffins????? They’re so exquisite, I actually kind of want to buy one……】

They both reached for the final cake at the same exact time.... more>>

As a host, it was never good to snatch things from guests. Tang Fan reluctantly shrank his hand back, glancing at the lovely little cake.

The affectionate look in his eyes was the exact same as the one Miss Ah-Xia had just peered at him with. <<less

Xia Dong’s leg flew up as she kicked the corpse and swore, “Damn it, as if I needed for him to tell me that! They’ve provoked me this far, I wouldn’t let it be over even if they wanted it to be over!”... more>>

“Xia Dong jiejie….” Yan Yujin wiped at the cold sweat on his forehead. “You’re a lady, you shouldn’t swear, it’s so inelegant….”

“Oh?” Xia Dong’s voice was sweet as she turned a tender smile towards him, charm lacing the corners of her eyes and mouth. “The young master Yan has grown up and knows what a lady is. Come here and tell jiejie, how should a lady speak to you?”

Yan Yujin stumbled backwards and hid behind Xiao Jingrui, deeply regretting his quick tongue. “Nothing, nothing, our Xia Dong jiejie is beautiful and clever, the most extraordinary lady in Da Liang.” <<less

“Aren’t you supposed to be shocked, then either be shy or awkwardly slam the door and leave? Then shouldn’t I lay on the sweet talk every day, bother you every day, give you gifts every day, send lots of text messages every day asking you whether you’re having a good morning, afternoon, and evening, constantly checking up on what you’ve been eating and drinking, whether you have diarrhea or constipation? Then you’ll slowly be moved, and finally, there’ll be one final push, we’ll be separated by fate, and then have a happy ending, right?” ... more>>

Kou Tong took a moment to look at Huang Jinchen with a disbelieving expression and react sincerely to what he had said just now: “Excuse me, are your balls…in good condition?” 

Huang Jinchen thought about it, then frankly said, “They’re all right.”  <<less

The Marquis took a deep breath and concentrated on his dantian: “Grab that devil’s spawn for me!” ... more>>

The whole ZuiLiuHua became silent after the Marquis’ roar, and after a while, everyone guessed it--ladies and gentlemen, brothers, guess what happened? The “lady minstrel” that was scared to death just now was nobody but the Yong Ning Marquis' eldest son in disguise! 

A man dressed up as a woman at a brothel, and bumping into his own father! How exciting!  <<less

“You’re raising a cat but you never talk with him? Are you some sort of freak?”

When John saw the ice sword that jutted out from the corpse’s buttocks and even caused its tail to stand straight up… he fell silent.... more>>

“My original intention was for you to stab its neck,” John said calmly.

“I… I didn’t aim right,” Evan answered bashfully, explaining quietly, “The tail brushed me away a few times and I even choked on the water, so I only remembered to stab its body…”

“Mn, you did stab it.” John pulled the Abyss Dhole’s corpse with the tip of his feet, replying with an even more complicated expression, “You stabbed its a**hole.”

Evan, “…” <<less

Old people said that kids who were especially clever were all made out of the scraps of humanity, they didn’t often make it to adulthood.... more>> But if one of them was born with great fortune and managed to survive, they’d go on to make great waves in the human realm. <<less
