His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

After a delirious first night together, Shi Guang found herself waking up to a cruel reality… a breakup initiated by him, ending their relationship! What? Why? How? These were the questions that bugged Shi Guang’s mind in the two years after he left without a trace. Just as she thought that she had finally managed to get over him, Lu Yanchen suddenly appeared before her and before she knew it, she had to get married to this man who had dumped her two years ago?! What? Why? How? These were the questions that Shi Guang were faced with after his mysterious appearance once more. Just what are Young Master Lu’s motives? Why is he always watching out for her even though he was the one that had dumped her? And worst still… What’s with that tsundere attitude of his…?! Translator’s Review: This is a really sweet novel about a couple that just annoys one another in the cutest ways. Lu Yanchen is a descendant of a powerful aristocratic military family. Cold, aloof, genius and sharp, this is a man that has it all – status, smarts and looks. But none of that matters when it comes to affairs involving his silly woman as everything melts away into an encompassing warmth. Purple-Red Beauty is someone that spends a lot of time building the settings of her novels. Earlier on, I too was rather annoyed at some of the things that Lu Yanchen did. But once the story gets on track… everything suddenly seemed even sweeter than before! If any of you have heard of the Japanese manga Itazura na Kiss or have caught any of the many Japanese (Mischievous Kiss), Chinese (It Started With A Kiss) and Korean (Playful Kiss) drama reboots made for it, you will definitely love it! :P

Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

Sophie Wexler transmigrated into a novel about The Galaxy, becoming the vicious, F-rank Healer-class cannon fodder. The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy. Sophie was content, thinking, "This time, I must have finally escaped the original owner's fate, right?" But what do you know, the man I've been doting on and supporting is actually the Imperial Marshal?! --- One day, Yancey Forrest came home to find that the boisterous person who was always claiming to be good to him was gone.

Reading novels on my phone during the day, should the screen be brighter or darker?
It was better to have a brighter screen when reading novels on the phone during the day. This was because the higher the brightness of the phone screen, the higher the contrast felt by the eyes. In this case, it was easier for the eyes to adapt to the screen and enjoy the reading experience better. If the screen was too dark, it would cause the eyes to constantly adjust their vision to find the text, which would affect the reading experience. Therefore, when using the phone during the day, it is recommended to turn up the brightness of the screen to better enjoy the reading experience.

In the light, the darkness is darker; in the darkness, the light is brighter. I remember reading it in a literature textbook in high school, but I couldn't find it.
This was the opening of the famous poem,"In the light, darkness is darker; in the darkness, light is brighter." In the light, the darkness was darker, and in the darkness, the light was brighter. The dark night could not cover the light, just as the light could not cover the dark night. Light and darkness were mutually dependent, and their existence proved each other. In the light, we feel infinite silence and serenity, but in the darkness, we face endless fear and the unknown. Light makes us feel warmth and hope, while darkness makes us feel loneliness and despair. But as we move on in the darkness, we keep finding hope. In those silent nights, we hear the voices of those who struggle in the darkness, step by step, towards the light. In the light we feel the infinite possibilities of life, but in the darkness we face self-doubt and denial. Light and darkness were both indispensable parts of life. Only in the dual world of light and darkness can we continue to grow and progress.

Should the screen be brighter or darker for the eyes? Usually, my phone is set to a very dim setting because I'm reading novels.
For the eyes, it was better to brighten the phone screen than to dim it. If the brightness of the phone screen was too high, it would cause excessive stimulation to the eyes, resulting in eye fatigue, headache, and other uncomfortable symptoms. This was because when the brightness of the phone screen was too high, the blue light on the screen would be too exposed to the eyes, causing the blue light to overstimulate the retina and cause damage to the eyes. On the contrary, if the brightness of the phone screen was too low, the screen would be too dim, and the reading effect would be poor. It was not conducive to reading novels and other reading materials. Therefore, in order to reduce the damage to the eyes, it was recommended to increase the brightness of the phone screen to meet the reading needs.

The meaning of the night neon is brighter
" The neon lights are brighter at night " meant that the neon lights at night were as dazzling as pearls, colorful, dazzling, and gorgeous. This expression was often used to describe the city's many lights and rich colors at night, reflecting the city's beauty, prosperity, and liveliness. It could also show the city's vitality. For example, when the Spring Festival was approaching, the city carried out lighting projects to make the night neon bright.
