Fairly light chapter, wherein WKX shows Symptoms. And ZZS make excuses for his boyfriend.
Also, the end of Volume I.
Thank you Emma P and Christina H for proofreading!
Notes
1. 七爷 translated literally. I think a more accurate translation would be Lord The Seventh, but the extra article doesn't make that much of a difference. Moniker because he is "the seventh" in rank, and also because - spoiler - of his seventh reincarnation.
2. Here Wen Kexing's "murderous aura" is a tangible "force field" type of thing (made of qi). It doesn't translate well so I simplified it. Which makes me want to remark how much the "Age of Enlightenment" has shaped Western culture. Chinese lit. is full of what the western eye would call "magic" and the concept of "fantasy" reflect delineations that don't truly reflect how these elements are simply part of traditions that were never urged to justify themselves through the lenses of reason.
I agree on Ye Baiyi making a fine punching bag 👍🏻
And me thinks that perhaps WKX took a large gulp of vinegar back then 😂 His thinking ZZS, a 'straight' man, was going behind his back with another man as repellent and insufferable as Ye Baiyi k!lls me 😂😂
Ye Baiyi cannot be that ignorant of customs. I feel like he was definitely stirring the pot. Thanks for the translation!
