thank you so much for the translations! I love that you upload in chunks that make sense plotwise so we're not left too on the edge of our seats in between waits.
one of my favourite things about this story is how fleshed out and fully lived each character's backstories are. Each one of them could be the protagonist in their own right, with their own goals and motivations. they don't just move because the plot tells them to move; it was already seeded in...
@Wyrm
I do understand what you mean! I definitely agree that Maomao needs to start with more common terms, especially if Shao Ran doesn't even know anything about medicine. I guess I was mostly refuting your point that logographic languages aren't useful in deciphering more common words like...

@Wyrm
imo it wouldn't be too hard for them to decipher the hanzi since they already know how to speak the language, they just need to put visuals to the words. For example, Maomao wrote 冬虫夏草 for cordyceps—literally...

this was great! I agree with @milkyteas that the...

There's no big conspiracy left. Kairi is clearly not Rize's...
This is exactly the type of story that makes the LGBT community think BL is a genre made by straight women for straight women to fetishize gay men. There are so many tropes, but not in a good way:
I would NOT be able to so easily forgive a childhood friend that
1. called me 'disgusting' and cut me off after finding out I was gay, and
2. didn't even have the decency to stop the petty silent treatment to give me condolences after my MOM DIED????
Even his mom helped out, but he chose...
