Move to Foxaholic: Complete! + Chapter Update!

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT I have moved to  Foxaholic ! All chapters that used to be here can now be found over there. Chapters originally posted here will contain only a preview and a link to the chapter at Foxaholic.  This blog will remain, in the unlikely event that I decide to take on another project that, for some reason or other,  will not be posted there. Thank you all, once again, for supporting me here  at this little blog, and sorry for any inconvenience caused by the move! Find me at Foxaholic, and feel free to join us on Discord!

Update on the Move to Foxaholic

!!! So it occurred to me that it would be a little strange to have two versions of the same thing on two different sites, especially when I'm about to add the new locations of the chapters to NovelUpdates.  I sought advice from Fox-sama and have decided to link the chapters on this blog to the version at Foxaholic as I repost them there i.e. since WRS Arc 2 Prologue and Chapter 1 have been posted there, the posts here containing these chapters will now contain: a chapter preview and a link that will direct you to Foxaholic's chapters.  New content page for WRS at Foxaholic over here >> Thanks for your support! 

Important Announcement

!!! I am moving to Foxaholic  next month!  All chapters posted here will be kept here until the end of next month, but a copy of all chapters posted here will also be available on Foxaholic (hopefully with slightly better quality because I'm gonna look out for a proofreader/editor) within a week's time.  New chapters i.e. Arc 2 Chapter 8 onwards will be posted on Foxaholic, and t he last chapter that will be posted here will be Arc 2 Chapter 7.  At the end of next month, all chapters here will be replaced by a link to Foxaholic's chapters. (Unless some unforeseen circumstance occurs) I'll be posting another announcement here at that time, in case some of you miss this. Thanks for supporting me here at this little blog, and I hope you won't mind the move too much, but I've met the Foxaholic peeps and they're great. (They're also translating some novels I really like so it's a plus!)  See ya on the other side! WRS Ar

WRS Chapter 2.7.1 (Preview)

Arc Two - Chapter Seven (Part One) When Shen Jiayan finished reading the script, he was suddenly lightly seized by someone from behind him. Su You rested his chin on Shen Jiayan's shoulder, looking at him with a smile in his eyes, the gentleness in his eyes seemed capable of drowning a person to death. Feeling that the body of the person he was hugging was slightly stiff, Su You laughed softly and asked a question: “Director Zheng’s script?” Shen Jiayan put down the phone and made a sound of agreement. But his eyes did not dare to look at him, his cheeks were slightly red, with one glance one could tell that he was still ashamed of last night’s matter, yet he still wanted to act strong and calm. It was just that his pair of almond eyes were too clean and clear, selling him out with just a look. ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic! Read it  here >>

WRS Chapter 2.6 (Preview)

Arc Two - Chapter Six When Su You kicked the door open with one foot, that Shen Jiayan’s white shirt had already been taken off halfway, his exquisite clavicle reflected the flush that dyed his skin, and he had a dazed look. It was obvious that Dong Yi had fed him something. Su You was so angry his eyes were scarlet red, immediately hauling Dong Yi over to give him a ruthless punch, such that his eyes emitted golden blossoms. Then, without waiting for him to react, what greeted him was a rain of fists in unbroken succession. And all the hits were in places that he wanted to harm—eyes, abdomen, temples…… If not for the sound of Shen Jiayan’s light gasps, reminding Su You, it was actually very likely for Su You to simply beat Dong Yi to death here today. ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic!

Delays

Hi, so I'm aware that I originally predicted one month to be the longest I would take to update a chapter but I'm a little more than a month away from my finals and thesis submission so I'm going to have to take a break here. Sorry about the wait.  The next chapter will be up by September (that's when I'm graduating... hopefully ^_^") See you then!

WRS Chapter 2.5 (Preview)

Arc Two - Chapter Five Shen Jiayan pursed his lips and was silent for a while before compromising: “Send the address to me.” Then he no longer waited for the other side to respond, directly reaching out a hand to cut off the phone call. Shen Jiayan turned around before realising that since an unknown time, Su You had already stopped eating. His pair of phoenix eyes were fixed on Shen Jiayan without the slightest deviation, his pupils were as dark as ink. He opened his mouth to ask: “Who called?” ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic! Read it  here >>

WRS Chapter 2.4 (Preview)

Arc Two - Chapter Four Xie Yun shouted: “Good, pass!” His gaze towards Ji Luoge was very complicated. That action of Shen Yu using his index finger to stain his mouth, it did not exist the first time Ji Luoge acted, it was very obvious that he had only added it during the second take. And this action being added here, it was still unexpectedly appropriate. Xie Yun had to admit, although Ji Luoge was not yet qualified enough when using a strict actor’s standard, in terms of Ji Luoge’s acting skills, he already had his own unique aura and comprehension. As long as he takes the time, he could certainly become one of the best actors in the entertainment industry. ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic! Read it  here >>

WRS Chapter 2.3 (Preview)

Arc 2 – Chapter Three That investor’s surname was Dong, his age was close to forty, he was dressed up to the point of putting on airs, but his reputation in the circle was notoriously foul. This person liked to play with the circle’s male stars the most, and it was a common staple for them to end up injured and ruined after he’s had his fun. It was just extravagant spending, and in the entertainment circle, it was also an existence of being shaken with every stamp of feet, so there were still people who would be willing to follow him. In the past, Dong Yi had caught a glimpse of Ji Luoge at the celebration banquet. His only impression of him at the time was that the person looked very beautiful. However, in the blink of an eye, he was distracted by other matters and forgot about it. But today, meeting like this, it unexpectedly made the whole heart of this person surnamed Dong begin to itch. How had he not realised before that this Ji Luoge was so captivating?

WRS Chapter 2.2 (Preview)

Arc 2 - Chapter Two Shen Jiayan's next scene was with Su You. In this "Cricket" film, Su You's role was precisely the male lead, Zhu Fu. During that time period, it could be said that there was war and chaos everywhere. Amidst this, the Shen family generation was involved in the arms and pharmaceuticals business. Shen Yu had a mind for business, and taking advantage of the current turmoil, he made a lot of money from the war. And Zhu Fu was an undercover agent prepared to hide in the Shen family. ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic! Read it  here >>

WRS Chapter 2.1 (Preview)

Arc 2 - Chapter One The studio was in a mess, the makeup artist was busy applying makeup for Mo Ming, and the assistant was using a towel to wipe away the water on his face. It was a hot day, all the staff members were inevitably somewhat dissatisfied. However, they encountered Ji Luoge this sort of master, his arrogance was big enough to be deadly, yet he didn’t have a single bit of acting skills. A simple scene of spilling water, Ji Luoge had already gone back and forth for more than a dozen takes. Any discerning eye could see that Ji Luoge was deliberately targeting Mo Ming. The irony was that Ji Luoge’s acting was so lame, and when he apologizes, the smugness in the corner of his eyes couldn’t be hidden. Yet he still thought his covering-up was very good, honestly believing that no one would know? ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic! Read it  here >>

WRS Chapter 2.0 (Preview)

Arc 2 - Prologue The first mission ended, and Shen Jiayan returned to the mission space again. “Mission Results: Change the Shen family’s fate, success; let Gu Yu fall in love with you again, success. Gained points: 5000 + 1000. Mission completion grade: A.” The black cat jumped lightly onto Shen Jiayan’s knee, “Host, congratulations.” Shen Jiayan’s jaw slackened slightly, his eyes were full of incredulity: “There’s actually 6000!” “That’s right, Your Excellency Host, your mission was done very well.” The black cat asked affectionately, “So, does the host intend to take a break, or shall we receive a second client?” Shen Jiayan hesitated, then replied: "Receive the second client!" ---------- Full chapter moved to Foxaholic!

Picked Up! Water Recovery System

Water Recovery System (覆水能收系统) Author: Bamboo Dusk/Zhu Xiang Wan (竹向晚) Every novel has a slag character, the one who decides to abandon the protagonist at his lowest, most helpless point, either because he can’t stand the poor guy’s circumstances or for other reasons. But after the protagonist wins his way in life again, they’re the ones who beg with broken sobs to be taken back. Still, water once spilled can’t be recovered again. Yet the unlucky Shen Jiayan has been bound to a Water Recovery* System to do just that. *water recovery – comes from an idiom that means “spilled water can’t be recovered” (English equivalent: there’s no use crying over spilt milk). ---------- So, after reading the first arc, courtesy of Shugui Translations, I decided to take their advice and pick up the second arc rather than wait for someone else to pick it up. So, here we are. This is my first attempt at translating a Chinese novel, so please be kind if I make any mistakes! I'll b
