Amater Translations

T/N: Next release, on day after tomorrow guys. (✿◠‿◠) For the third time, Xiaonian absentmindedly put another piece of vegetable on Gong Ouyang’s plate leaving the big meaty pieces inside the pot.   Gong Ouyang’s eyebrows twitched in a mixture of confusion and frustration. His good food stayed in the pot and he was being fed only goat food.   Who cared for these vegetables? The maids standing behind started sweating bullets as they watched Xiaonian act as if her thoughts were a million miles away. Wasn’t she scared? Their boss was a fire a breathing dragon when he is displeased, ah! Gong Ouyang finished his vegetables and looked expectantly at the pot filled with meat pieces. A maid noticed that Xiaonian’s eyes were still glued to her own plate and hurriedly moved to serve her master.   Gong Ouyang looked at her with displeasure but let her serve. As soon as the food was his plate, his attention was once again focused on his food...

T/N: There won't be a release tomorrow. ┐(‘～`；)┌ Also, there is a bonus release explaining the characters and their behaviors. If you often wonder why the main characters act the way they do, please give it a read. Just click on the PREV button at the end of this chapter. I released it last Friday but for some reason it wasn't published on Novelupdates. ____________________________ Xia Yu, Xiaonian agrees, is a good and friendly editor on most days. With her cute face, and hip hairstyle, she could almost be passed for a normal human being. But anyone in the field of creative works knows that the editors of romance stories geared towards young women are generally loopy. And this is true in the case of Xia Yu more than anyone.   Xiaonian had 2 editors before Xia Yu. Both weird in their own capacity, but Xia Yu, she was the weirdest when it comes to her duties. Xiaonian bravely mentioned this to her in the spirit of friendship after she downed two bott...

Bonus 1: Designing the personalities of main characters T/N: Hello dear readers, I promised you some extras a long time back and I found some time to do it this weekend. As you know, the characters in the original story are rather baffling because they make random decisions without any behavioral pattern. One of the first things I did before I decided to change the story here and there was to give a well defined outline to the characters. Being an amateur writer, I am probably not doing a great job translating those behaviors into dialogues, so here I’m giving you an explanation of what drives the characters and why they do what they do.   In order to avoid spoilers, I will discuss only the basics here. I hope you find some answers you are looking for here. _______________________ Gong Ouyang: Gong Ouyang has a cluster of personality disorders. He suffers from a mixture of paranoid personality disorder and borderline personality disorder. Paranoid pers...

T/N: I got caught up in Star Trek Next generation series and forgot to upload the release yesterday.  ( ° △ ° |||). This series is insanely addictive. Energize! ___________________________________________ The weekend arrived quickly. Early Saturday morning, Xiaonian scuttled around getting ready. The click clack of her heels on the floor woke up a bleary eyed Gong Ouyang who looked at Xiaonian in confusion. “What are you doing getting ready so early in the morning?” he mumbled into his pillow. Xiaonian paused as she was turning the cap of the lip balm. Did he already forget? “I have to be at the Cuisine class in half an hour.” “Oh.” And he fell asleep again without another word. Gong Ouyang stayed in his study into the early morning working on a new software he developed and did not get even 3 hours of sleep.   Xiaonian picked up a small booklet in which she noted some questions about the preparation of few dishes and shoved it into her ...

T/N: Summer's hot. Winter's too cold. I just live for the gaps that exist between these seasons. ___________________________ When Xiaonian did not say anything, Tang Yi glanced over her menu and looked back. They did not talk until the waiter came in to take their order. Xiaonian ordered a regular coffee and Tang Yi ordered a very expensive wine bottle that cost tens of thousands making Xiaonian surprised. How rich was she? Soon, the waiter came back with dishes and Tang Yi’s wine bottle while they were making small talk about this and that. The waiter placed a small bowl of soup and salad and some side dishes before her. Xiaonian looked at him in confusion. When did she order these? The waiter understood her confusion and answered her, “Madam, I was instructed to provide this meal to you by my supervisor and they also asked me to tell you that the bill for this room will be footed by Mr Gong, so there’s no need for madam to pay, ” he bowed a...

T/N: I posted a notice last week to inform you guys that there wouldn't be any releases last week. But, looks like it wasn't posted on the Novelupdates. I see that only a couple of you found the post. I apologize.  _________________________________ Xiaonian’s hand hovered on the skirt she was about to pick up. For some reason, after seeing Tang Yi last time, she had an inexplicable feeling that she cannot put in words. This new Tang Yi, made her feel cautious. She pulled out a casual summer dress from her old clothes from the corner of the closet and proceeded to get ready. It was better to show herself as she is and not cause anymore misunderstandings with Tang Yi. Once she was dressed, she picked up her old purse and walked out. If this was her old apartment, she would have checked to see she was getting her keys with her, but at TianZhi with so many maids and bodyguards around all the time, she did not really need any keys. As soon as she went out, two ...

Hello dear readers, I have an important interview this Thursday that requires some preparation. I will just be worrying non stop if I don't give my best. So, this week, I will not be releasing any chapters. Instead, you will see me next Monday as usual. Love, Tish
