Roughly translates to Hall of Government Affairs

Translator's Note

br-lazy" br-lazy" Some are crumbly and others are chewy/jelly-like~

Translator's Note

Xiao = little/li’l,  a term of endearment, and so is the -er suffix, which an equivalent in English would be like calling a guy named Sam, Sammy or a girl called Isabelle, Izzy.

Dark circles after comforting Jing Shao :3

Translator's Note

The “Xiao Shao” Mu Hanzhang used means “little spoon” as the “Shao” meaning spoon is a homophone (both are second tone) for Jing Shao’s “Shao” which alludes to excellent or harmonious music

  1. I’m glad to read this chapter so soon!!!

    Poor Mu Hanzhang has a despicable family. The brother and cousins, agh, Jing Shao, beat them up.

    Mu Hanzhang’s face is the solace for Jing Shao’s nightmares! How sweet.

    Thanks for the chapter!

  2. Thanks for the chapter! I see everyone is moving to CG but that’s great! What more can I ask for than all my favourite translations all in one place X”D

  3. Thanks for the update ❤️

    We finally get to see Jing Shao’s and MHZ’s past.
    Phew.
    MHZ is so poor.
    Thankfully that wet nurse is kind.
    Those villagers tho’…
    Come on, Jing Shao!
    Do something for the wet nurse!
    She’s the reason My HanZhang still alive.

    Ugh, I can’t wait for those scumbags to be punished.

  4. Both of them had a hard time with their childhood… 😢

    Thank you for the chapter! 💖

  5. I’m sure Xiao Shao will give you anything you want Jun Qing….ah….I wanna be rich too…

  6. The moment when Jing Shao cried and Mu Hanzhang comforted him until he fell asleep, was really tender and romantic~ ♡v♡

    Thanks for the chapter  (≧▽≦)/~ 

  7. Yay! Fast update. Also, Shao er definitely will give you money, Wang Fei, he would even give you his life if you asked him.

    This story remind me of Rebirth of Supreme Celestial Being, the gong atoning his past life sin to his shou.

  8. Yaay! Mu Hanzhang trusts his hubby to ask for help!!!
    We’re making progress here people ^^
    Please let this not cause anymore misunderstandings m(_ _)m
    Thanks for the chapter~

  9. Thank you for the chapter!
    It’s looks like Mu Han Zhang is really starting to open up to Jing Shao. He’s not afraid to tease him and now he’s taking the initiative to seek Jing Shao for help. I think that’s a big step forward in their relationship, since Mu Han Zhang seems so independent due to his past experiences.

  10. OMG I cant wait to see how this conversation goes on 😃
    Thanks a lot for ur translation

  11. Thanks for the update! Much appreciated! And amazing too!

  12. Why do I have a bad feeling about this..? Dun dun dun!!! Lol

    Thank you for the chapters. Tbh, at first, I thought there wouldn’t be so much fluff in the story. But now, damn, 🤣 they are in most of the chapters. I’m so happy for both of them! Thanks again.

  13. I’m sorry but but by Fun Run do you mean furèn as in wife?
