    Summary

    This could have been going better.

    If Meng Yao had been a more skilled swordsman, he might have been able to prevent the yaoguai from slipping through his guard.

    If he had been a stronger cultivator, his arm might have been healed more fully by now.

    If he'd taken more care in presenting himself, Jin Guangshan might not have had him unceremoniously kicked down the monumental steps of Koi Tower, and Meng Yao wouldn't ever have been alone on the road north, easy prey for any monsters or malicious spirits that lay in wait for a traveller so foolish as to step off the road.

    Summary

    It turned out that all Meng Yao had to do to turn his fortunes in life around was find a beautiful man in a ditch, save his life by wagering his own cultivation, and allow everyone to assume they were legitimately married.

    Summary

    During his first 15 years, Tom had always stolen, schemed, and threatened whenever he wanted something. Unlike other luckier children, there was no luxury of expecting spoiled treatment and nice things handed to him for free. This, however, suddenly changes when someone comes along more than happy to make up for it all.

    For the first time Tom can now count himself as part of the have's rather than the have not's. And Tom, naturally, engorges himself like the greedy, grasping creature he is. That he ends up revising many of his plans is only a side note.

    Summary

    Meng Yao had an important job. Meng Yao had a lot of work to do. Meng Yao should not be constantly texting Lan Xichen about medieval Italian free cities, Seretse Khama, the penumbra of the Bill of Rights, Pigouvian taxes, reducing Program Acquisition Unit Cost growth, and nurse practitioner licensing reform. 

    Meng Yao was getting very good at smiling at people during meetings and saying “this is important, I have to take this.”
