Same vibes, same age.
Both of them are 24-year old adults who act like teens and even share the same Korean name, Lucas. Heck, even their bangs are the same shape
On one hand, you have a guy who was sent to the jungle after it was revealed he stabbed himself when he was younger just so that his ice princess (who's a boy btw) wouldn't have to take over the bodyguard corporate.
And on the other hand, you have an art teacher that managed to rally every male in university to cosplay as butlers and say cringey lines for Princess Day.

one thing about ham dani that nobody seems to get and why I'm always fighting for my life in the webtoon's comment section is that in all her fear and reticence around opening herself up with her friends, believing she belongs in this world, trusting in her place and relationships is that SHE'S NEVER WRONG ABOUT THE NEGATIVES. i think it's very easy to look at dani a hundred chapters in still going on about her place as a side character and what she can expect from them realistically, what she can allow herself to feel for them, and feel frustrated, like she's being deliberately obtuse. but dani. is. not. wrong.
one thing that many isekais do is that they will take the premise of "being transported to a novel" and use that simply as a vehicle for the FL to use her knowledge of the future to her advantage and turn the odds on their head. beyond the initial "ehhh why is the ML flirting with me??" which tends to wear off rather easily, there is little questioning about what being in a story means. and inso's law takes that question seriously. because dani IS inside a story, her friends ARE characters AND THIS IS EASILY PROVABLE SINCE THE BEGINNING. How? because she leaves.
it has happened to her before! It happens multiple times in the novel! that's why march 2nd is SO terrifying for her, because everything she's built can be taken from her in the blink of an eye and SHE will be called crazy and SHE will be left grieving and nobody else will remember what ONLY SHE LIVED. she is effectively, practically, tangibly separate from each world by this experience. when dani insists on the labels of main character, side character, the tropes and the narrative possibilities happening within them SHE'S NOT WRONG!! because those things are TRUE!!! I know it's easy to gloss over it bc we as readers just take everything in as a story, but the crazy plot points? they're insane to her too because SHE is a real person and others are not! They're characters! That's why it's called The Law of Webnovels because dani is making sense of the rules of a world which factually functions distinctly different from hers. she's not making that shit up, it's not (entirely) an emotional hold up. that's shit's fucking real.
the nuance is brought on by the fact that the characters are, in fact, also people. they behave like people (albeit inside the margins of wild webnovel logic), they feel like people and they see her as a person. but she does not entirely reciprocate, because to view them as people means assuming the hurt that will inevitably come when 1) she gets sent back into the real world and loses them all or 2) the plot to the novel finally kicks in and who knows if the guy she liked was the ML and will end up with her best friend and all her love and all her trying were for nothing. No matter what, dani loses.
there's also the fact, which i think is exemplified very clearly in her feelings towards her grades and being compared to yeoryung, that even outside the character/real person dichotomy, ham dani and the boys come from WILDLY different backgrounds. when they graduate high school, they will go to different colleges and they will get different jobs and the wide wide gap which dani had managed to bridge due to the magic of webnovel rules will be opened once again. in the social hierarchy of modern korean society, dani will be left behind. ban yeoryung is somewhat immune to this despite sharing similar socioeconomic status because she has 1) better social capital in the form of her beauty and intelligence and 2) plot armour immunity bc she's destined to be with one of the boys anyway (and again it IS destiny bc she's the FL and according to the genre clues dani's been gathering that seems to be the most likely outcome). yeoryung has resources and tools beyond the story that dani cannot access. even IF this wasn't the world of a webnovel, if they existed in the real world, yeoryung COULD feasibly climb her way up but dani? she's realistic about her prowess and she knows very well that being a good friend and a good person does not mean she will get to remain close to her friends who are much much much richer. my point here being that even if she weren't under the assumption (WELL TESTED!!! SCIENTIFIC, EVEN!!!) that she's in the world of a story ruled by story laws, she wouldn't be silly for guarding her heart against the possibility of drifting away from byr+the boys.
all of this is why i love dani's character arc and her as a person. she doesn't act irrationally. she only acts very, very humanly. it's why i loved the kidnapping arc and her confrontation with choi yuri. she has to learn to treat them seriously, as human beings, because despite factually being characters, they don't have the awareness of it and their lives are every bit as real as any other to them. it's part also of dani learning how to be a person herself, because she's still a kid growing up and learning what's what, and doing so in an environment much more stressful than the usual. i think people are being irrationally mean towards her simply because they do not make the effort to understand her.
#i love her. i love ham dani. favourite fucking girl ever.#inso's law#the law of webnovels#my life as a webnovel#my life as an internet novel#ham dani#and im tagging my meta so everybody knows HAM DANI IS RIGHTTTTT#SHES NEVER BEEN WRONG#I LOVE HER

My list of favorite novels (named 'Favorite novels (recommend+++)' in my tabs…):
1. ✨'Lord of the Mysteries'✨
2. ´Trash of the Count’s Family' (sorry orv, you appear later)
3. 'Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint' (sometimes I see people recommend these three novels and I’m like "You have good tastes, let’s see what other novels you liked so that I can read them…")
4. ‘Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint Side Story' (I’m joking, it’s still orv… but I’ve really written this.)
5. (In truth, the 4th) 'The Demon Prince goes to the Academy' (In life, some things are particularly underrated, and this is one of them. Especially on ao3, someone please write fics for this.)
6. (In truth the 5th) 'The Law of Webnovels' (The manhwa is named 'Inso’s law'.)
7. (The 6th, all favorite novels are equal in my heart from here on) 'The Novel’s Extra' (I don’t know why… It must be the psychological struggle in the middle…)
8. (Still 6th) 'The Hero Returns'
9. (Still 6th) 'How to Raise Your Regressor' (less heavy (I guess…?), for those who like humor)
10. (Still 6th) 'My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending' (only reproach is the lack of chapters)
11. (Still 6th) 'SSS-Class Suicide Hunter'
My criteria for choosing my favorite novels:
First, I went to the list of novels I read and didn’t drop.
Then, I eliminated all those that I didn’t even remember what they talked about. (I called them third rate novels)
After that, I searched for the ones I remembered the names of the characters in it, then realized that it couldn’t be a criteria since I only remembered the names of people from lotm, tcf and orv.
Then, I put all the novels I really liked as first rate novels, the rest as second rate novels (but I like all of them too), and finally put all the novels I would bother rereading in my list of favorite novels. Tadah.

Above all else, I love the friendship depicted in My Life as an Internet Novel! It's just so wholesome it warms my heart. Despite the MC's low self esteem (that she's just a plain side character), I love the way they cherish each other's existence & protect each other through & through🥺. She used to seem them as merely fictional characters at first but as the time passes, she starts to realize they're just human beings with depth 🥺

That is... seriously awful. I already had some complaints about Webnovel (see the genres, which I'll list out below), but this takes the cake.
Webnovel has two main categories, which are then divided into genres.
Male lead stories have the following genres: action, eastern, fantasy, games, history, horror, realistic, sci-fi, sports, urban, war
Female lead stories have the following genres: fantasy, general, history, LGBT+, sci-fi, teen, urban.
If you click on the fantasy, general, history, sci-fi, or urban genres in the female lead section, you see that stories have a different genre label. The *actual* genres are fantasy romance, romance, historical romance, LGBT+, sci-fi romance, teen, contemporary romance.
In the female lead section, basically everything I've seen there is a romance story, even the teen and LGBT+ categories. There's no space or categorization for a story about a woman that *isn't* a romance. There are a couple stories that aren't romances, if you look, but the default sorting makes them hard to find.
Mind you, the male lead novels have their own issues, especially when it comes to the portrayal of female characters, but that's its own issues with the writers.
But anyways, the legal side of this... that's messed up
I got this comment on a story from my Other AO3 Account this morning.
(Info redacted because I prefer keeping these accounts separate but no one follows me on the side blog I have for that account.)
The story was posted almost a year ago and is relatively “popular” by my average statistics even though it has tropes and themes that are big turnoffs for a lot of people (hence separate accounts). This popularity is undoubtedly because it’s a Marvel Loki story and that fandom is massive.
So there is obviously an algorithm or a bot scrubbing ao3 statistics and leaving this comment on fics that meet a certain metric with the main character of the fic inserted into the comment.
I had a little time to kill this morning so I decided to investigate further. And y’all this is so predatory. Come on this journey with me. It made me mad. It may make you mad.
First, if you go to Webnovel’s website, you HAVE to choose between male lead or female lead stories before you can go any further. WTF?
And that’s weird, but this gets so much worse. This is basically a pay-to-read site that has different subscription models. Which… okay BUT! The authors don’t get paid! Look at that comment again. They’re promising a supportive and nurturing community, but zero monetary compensation. It’s basically, “post your stuff here so we can get paid and you can get… nice vibes?” I mean look at this Orwellian writing:
Using the phrase “pay-to-read model” in the same sentence as “qualitative changes in lifestyles for authors” deliberately makes you think that you can get paid and maybe even make a living on this website. But that’s not actually what it says and authors will not receive one red cent.
Oh but wait, the worst is still to come. In case this breaks containment (which I kind of hope it does) this is where I mention that I’m a lawyer in the US.
I don’t do intellectual property or copyright law but I do read and write contracts for a living. So I went to look at their terms of service. It was fun!
Highlights the first, in which Webnovel gets a license to do basically whatever they want with content you post on their site. This is how they get to be paid for people reading authors’ writing without paying them anything.
Highlights the second, in which Webnovel takes no responsibility for illegally profiting off of fan fic. This all says that the writer is 100% responsible for everything the writer posts (even though only Webnovel is making money from it).
Highlights the third which say that by posting, the author is representing that they have the legal right to use and to let Webnovel use the content according to these terms. So if a writer posts fan fiction and Webnovel makes money from people reading the fan fiction, and the House of the Mouse catches wise, these sections say that that’s ALL on the writer.
So that’s a little skeevy to start off with but the thing that is seriously shitty and made me make this post was that these assholes are coming to ao3. They are actively recruiting people in comments on their fan fiction. And they are saying they are big fans of the character you’re writing about and that they share your interests.
They are recruiting fan fiction writers and giving every impression that you can make money from posting fan fiction on their site and hiding the fact that you absolutely cannot but they can make money off of you while you try, deep in their terms of service which no one but a lawyer who writes fan fic and has some time to kill will read.
I see posts on here regularly from people who don’t understand how this stuff works, don’t understand that they (and others) can not legally make a financial profit from fan fiction. And there are tons of people who will not take the time to dig into the details.
Don’t deal with these bastards. Fuck Webnovel.

The charismatic Charles Wade Read full novel here
Chapter 1
The luxurious Willson family villa is brightly lit.
Tonight is the birthday banquet of the seventy-year-old Mrs. Willson, the head of the Willson family.
Many grandchildren, granddaughters, and grandsons-in-law gave gifts.
“Grandma, I heard that you love tea. This century-old Pu’er tea brick is worth 500,000 and is a birthday gift for you.”
“Grandma, I heard that you believe in Buddha. This jade Buddha is carved from Hetian jade and is worth 700,000.”
Old Mrs. Willson looked at the various gifts and laughed, making the whole family happy.
At this moment, Mrs. Willson’s eldest grandson-in-law, Charlie, suddenly said: “Grandma, can you lend me a million? Aunt Lena from the orphanage has uremia and needs money for treatment.”
The entire Willson family was shocked.
Everyone looked at Charlie with incredible eyes.
This live-in son-in-law is too courageous, right? The Lady Willson was over her birthday. Not only did he not prepare any gifts, he even dared to open his mouth and ask the Lady Willson to borrow one million?
Three years ago, the surviving Mr. Willson, don’t know from where found Charlie, and insisted on marrying his eldest granddaughter Claire Willson to him. At that time, Charlie was penniless, just like a beggar, same as now.
After the two got married, the Old Master passed away. Since then, the Willson family has been deliberately trying to drive him away.
It’s just that Charlie is indifferent, and is not moved by other people’s insults, so he has always been a live-in son-in-law in the Willson family.
It is also helpless to ask the Lady Willson to borrow money today.
Aunt Lena from the orphanage where he was taken in and saved, had uremia. Dialysis and kidney transplantation required at least one million. He really had no choice but to speak to the Lady Willson.
He felt that today is the Lady Willson’s birthday, and then she may be kind and willing to help when she is happy.
Unexpectedly, the Old Mrs. Willson was still laughing for a second, and she immediately pulled her face down this second.
She threw the teacup in her hand to the ground and shouted angrily: “b*start thing, you are here to celebrate my birthday or to borrow money?”
Charlie’s wife, Claire, hurried forward and explained to the Lady Willson: “Grandma, Charlie is ignorant, don’t be surprised.”
With that said, she was about to pull Charlie aside.
At this time, Claire’s cousin, Wendy, sneered and said, “Sister, look at what kind of rubbish your marriage is! Gerald and I were just engaged and not yet married, so Gerald gave grandma a Hetian Jade Buddha, it’s good for your husband, he didn’t bring any gifts, and he still have the face to ask grandma to borrow money!”
“That’s right, Brother Charlie, we are both grandsons-in-law of the Willson family. You, as the eldest grandson-in-law, are really a failure!”
The man who spoke was Wendy’s fiance, Gerald, the young master of a large local family.
Although Gerald was about to marry Wendy, in his mind, Wendy’s appearance was a thousand miles away from Charlie’s wife Claire.
Claire was a well-known goddess in Aurous Hill, but seeing the goddess marrying this worthless man and a waste of money, Gerald was also very upset.
“This kind of garbage, it’s best to get him out of our Willson family as soon as possible!”
“Yes! The Willson family’s face has completely lost this guy!”
“I think it is fake that he borrowed money, and his interest in deliberately sweeping the birthday feast of the Lady Willson is true!”
Charlie couldn’t help clenching his fists when he saw that the entire Willson family was targeting and insulting him.
Had it not been for the medical expenses of the savior, he would have turned around and left this place of fake extravaganza and pomp.
However, thinking of his father’s teachings to him since he was a child, letting his kindness of dripping water and retribution to the spring, he tried to suppress the humiliation in his heart, and said to the Old Mrs. Willson: “Grandma, saving a life is better than building a seventh-level Buddha. Please be merciful”
Someone snorted coldly and cursed: “Wade, you don’t want to give grandma ecstasy here. If you want to have someone, you can find a way by yourself and don’t let your grandma pay to help you save people. What are you?”
It was Wendy’s brother, Harold.
The brothers and sisters have always had great opinions on Claire, who is superior to them in all aspects, so they like to seize the opportunity to mock Charlie the most.
Claire on the side looked a little embarrassed and said, “Grandma, Charlie lost his father when he was eight years old. Aunt Lena from the orphanage brought him up. He wanted to repay his gratitude because of a grateful heart. Please help him”
Old Mrs. Willson said with a dark face: “Let me help him? Okay, unless you divorce him and then marry Mr. Jones, if you do, I will immediately give him one million!”
The Lady Willson was talking about Wendell, who had been pursuing Claire. The Jones family was an upper-class family in Aurous Hill, much more powerful than the Willson family, and the Lady Willson always wanted to curry favor.
At this time, the housekeeper ran in and said loudly: “Mr. Jones sent someone with a birthday gift! A carved jade amulet from Laokeng is worth three million!”
Mrs. Willson was overjoyed and blurted out: “Bring it quickly, let me see!”
The butler immediately handed over an emerald green jade amulet, and everyone present let out a breath of surprise.
This jade amulet is emerald green, crystal clear, without a trace of impurities, and looks like a first-class genuine product.
Gerald, who had sent the Hetian Jade Buddha, saw this jade amulet, and his face was a little bit awkward. Unexpectedly, Wendell had nothing to do with the Willson family, and his shot was so generous!
Old Mrs. Willson happily played with jade amulets and said merrily: “Oh, Mr. Jones is really interested! Only if he could be my grandson-in-law, I would really wake up in my dreams!”
After that, she looked up at Claire: “How about my condition, would you like to consider it?”
Claire shook her head: “Grandma, I will not divorce Charlie.”
Mrs. Willson’s expression instantly turned into a haze, and she angrily cursed: “Don’t give me your face! You must hang on this rubbish! Let this rubbish get out of my face! My birthday banquet, he is not allowed to participate!”
Charlie was completely disappointed, and he had no face to stay in the Willson family at this time, so he said to Claire, “Claire, I will go to the hospital to see Aunt Lena.”
Claire hurriedly said, “Then I will be with you.”
Old Mrs. Willson cursed at this moment: “If you leave too, I won’t have you as granddaughter in the future! You take your parents and your mother, and get out of Willson’s house with this waste!”
Claire looked startled, and she didn’t expect the Lady Willson to say such harsh words.
Charlie said hurriedly: “You stay, don’t worry about me.”
With that said, before Claire recovered, he turned around and walked out.
Harold laughed behind him, “Oh my good brother-in-law, you left hungry and won’t go to the streets to beg for dinner? In that case, our Willson family’s face will not let you lose all of it? I still have it. For a coin, you can buy a steamed bun to eat!”
Harold said, took out a coin and threw it at Charlie’s feet.
The entire Willson family burst into laughter.
Charlie gritted his teeth and left the Willson family without looking back.
When he rushed to the hospital, Charlie immediately went to the payment office, wanting to communicate with the hospital, and to inform them that the medical expenses would be delayed for another two days.
However, when he asked the nurse, he was suddenly told that Aunt Lena had been sent to the best Hospital in Eastcliff overnight.
Charlie was shocked, and hurriedly asked her: “How much does it cost? I’ll find a way!”
The other party said: “A total of three million is needed. One million has been paid, and there is still a gap of two million. It will be paid in a week.”
“Who paid this million?”
The other party shook her head: “I don’t know either.”
Charlie was surprised and was about to figure it out. When he turned his head, a man in a black suit with gray hair, about fifty years old, was standing behind him.
With eyes facing each other, the man bowed to him and said, “Young master, you have suffered for so many years!”
Charlie frowned, as if his temperament had changed, and asked coldly: “Are you Stephen Thompson?”
The other party said in surprise: “Mr. Wade, you still remember me!”
Charlie’s expression froze, and he murmured: “Of course I remember! I remember every one of you! Back then, you forced my parents to take me out of Eastcliff and escape all the way. During this time, my parents died unexpectedly. I have also become an orphan, so why are you looking for me now!”
Stephen Thompson said very painfully: “Young Master, when your father passed away, Old Master Wade was also extremely sad. He has been looking for you for so many years. Now that it is all right, he wants you to come back to him with me!”
Charlie said coldly: “You can go, I will never see him in my life.”
Stephen Thompson said, “Young Master, do you still blame Master Wade?”
“Of course.” Charlie said word by word: “I will never forgive him in my life!”
“Hey” Stephen Thompson sighed and said: “Before I came, Master Wade said you might not forgive him.”
“That means he has self-knowledge!”
Stephen Thompson said: “Old Mr Wade. knows that you have suffered over the years, he wants to compensate you a little. If you don’t want to go back, he will buy the largest company in Aurous Hill and give it to you. In addition, he has asked me to give you this card. The password is your birthday.”
With that, Stephen Thompson handed over a Citibank premium card.
“Mr. Wade, there are only five such cards in the country.”
Charlie shook his head and said, “Take it away, I don’t want it.”
Stephen Thompson said: “Mr. Wade, for your savior, you still have a shortfall of 2 million in medical expenses. If you fail to pay, her life may be in danger.”
Charlie frowned: “You deliberately fix me?”
Stephen Thompson hurriedly said, “I don’t dare to! If you accept this card, it will be enough to pay the money.”
Charlie asked, “How much money is in this card?”
“Mr. said, this card is for you as a little pocket money, not much, a total of 10 billion!”
chapter 2
Ten billion? !
Charlie was stunned.
He knew that his grandfather’s family was rich, but at that time he was young and had no idea about money. He only knew that the Wade family was one of the top families in Eastcliff and in the country.
But he didn’t know exactly how much money it had.
But at this moment, he knew it.
Ten billion is just pocket money, and when it is about the entire Wade family, he is afraid it will be more than one trillion!
To be honest, at this moment, he was deeply moved in his heart.
But thinking of the death of his parents, Grandpa couldn’t shirk the blame, and he couldn’t forgive him.
Stephen Thompson saw his entanglement and hurriedly said, “Master, you are the heir of Wade family. You deserve this money, and strictly speaking, it belongs to your father.”
“Master said, if you are willing to go back, you will inherit the trillions of family properties. If you don’t want to go back, this money will be given as your living expenses.”
“Oh yes, Aurous Hill’s largest enterprise, the Emgrand Group with a market value of 100 billion, was wholly-owned by Yejia yesterday. Now all the shares are in your name, you can go to Emgrand Group for the hand over by tomorrow!”
Charlie was a little unbelievable.
Wade Family’s investment is too big for him to handle, right?
Ten billion premium cards, one hundred billion Emgrand Group!
Although Aurous Hill hides the dragon and crouching tiger, the only true god is the Emgrand Group. Any family must bow to their knees in front of the Emgrand Group. It is the emperor of Aurous Hill’s business field!
Even the Willson family and White family who humiliated him today, as well as the Jones family who pursue Claire, are all small in front of the Emgrand Group!
Unexpectedly, it turns out to be his own now?
At this time, Stephen Thompson handed him a business card and said, “Mr. Wade, you may need to calm down and think about it. I won’t bother you anymore. This is my phone number. Please tell me if you have anything to do!”
After speaking, Stephen Thompson turned and left.
After he left, Charlie was still in a daze.
He didn’t know whether he should accept Wade Family’s compensation.
But, thinking about it carefully, the humiliation that he has experienced over the past ten years, and the humiliation he has been given in the Willson family, these are the compensations given to him by the Wade family, why doesn’t he take it?
Moreover, Aunt Lena’s medical expenses still need two million, and it is urgent.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and immediately turned back to the toll office: “Hello, I want to deposit the two million.”
Swipe the card, enter the password, the transaction is successful.
Two million was easily credited to the hospital’s account.
Charlie felt like the whole person was in the mist.
Has he become a billionaire?
Going home in a muddled manner.
The family had fallen out at this time.
Claire and her parents did not live in Willson’s villa, but a very ordinary building.
They have been driven out since Claire married him and Old Mr. Willson died.
His mother-in-law was yelling at home: “Charlie that rubbish! Let us lose face today! If you don’t divorce him, your grandmother will drive you out of the Willson Group!”
Claire said, “I’ll find another job when I get out.”
“You” said mother-in-law angrily: “What’s so good about that rubbish? Why can’t you divorce him and then marry Wendell? If you marry Wendell, our family can be proud!”
The father-in-law also said to the side: “Yes! Marry Wendell, our family will become a treasure immediately in front of your grandma, and your grandma will rush to curry favor with you every day.”
Claire said: “Don’t say anything, I won’t divorce Charlie.”
“You kid!”
The two had to persuade Charlie to push in.
When they saw him, his father-in-law and mother-in-law didn’t look good.
The mother-in-law snorted coldly: “A rubbish, and a face to bear it all!”
Charlie sighed inwardly. His mother-in-law has always looked down upon him, but if he were to let her know that he is now the boss of the Emgrand Group and has 10 billion in cash, what would she be like?
However, Charlie is not yet ready to let people know his identity.
He has been away from the Wade family for many years, who knows what the Wade family is now? What if someone in the Wade family is unfavorable to him if he exposes himself?
Therefore, it is better to keep a low profile first.
So he lowered his head and said apologetically: “Mom, I’m sorry, I caused you trouble today.”
The mother-in-law scolded: “You are more than trouble, you are killing our family of three! You can’t be a little self-aware, and get out of our house?”
Claire hurriedly said: “Mom, how do you talk, Charlie is your son-in-law!”
“bulls*it!” Mother-in-law said bitterly: “I don’t have such a waste son-in-law! The farther you go, the better!”
Claire pushed Charlie: “Hurry go to the room.”
Charlie nodded gratefully and fled back to the room.
He and Claire had been married for three years, but they had never been married for three years in the strict sense. Claire slept on the bed and he slept on the floor next to her.
This night, Charlie couldn’t sleep for a long time.
What happened today is really shocking, he will not be able to digest it for a while.
Before going to bed, Claire said to him, “How is Aunt Lena? I still have more than 100,000 private money. You can take it to her tomorrow.”
Charlie said: “No, someone has already paid Aunt Lena and sent her to Eastcliff for treatment.”
“Really?” Claire said in surprise, “Aunt Lena is saved?”
“Yes.” Charlie said: “Aunt Lena has done good and accumulated virtue throughout her life and helped so many people. Now someone has finally repaid her.”
“That’s good.” Claire nodded and said to Charlie: “You can breathe a sigh of relief.”
“Yes.”
Claire said: “I have to go to sleep. Recently, the company has a lot of things and I’m so tired.”
Charlie asked: “What happened to the company?”
Claire said: “The business is not very good. Grandma has always wanted to cooperate with a large company like the Emgrand Group, but the strength of the Willson family is still much weaker and people look down on it.”
Charlie suddenly thought of the Emgrand Group and asked her: “The Willson family has no cooperation with the Emgrand Group?”
Claire laughed at him and said: “How can the Emgrand Group look at the Willson family! Even Wendy’s fiancé and Gerald’s family are barely able to catch up with the Emgrand Group. Grandma counts on them after they get married. The White family can help the Willson family connect with the Emgrand Group.”
Charlie nodded.
It turned out that the Willson family had sharpened their heads and wanted to cooperate with the Emgrand Group.
However, Mrs. Willson was afraid of dreaming and could not think of it, Emgrand Group is now his own.
Thinking of this, Charlie decided to take over the Emgrand Group first, and then give Claire a little help through the Emgrand Group. She was too bullied in the Willson family. As her husband, he had the responsibility to help her improve her status in the family.
At first, Your husband is different from today!
I will never let anyone look down on you again!
I will make the entire Willson family bow to you!
Chapter 3
Early the next morning.
After Charlie finished cooking, he rode his little ebike to the Emgrand Group.
He parked the little ebike next to the parking lot of the Emgrand Group. As soon as the bike was locked, a black Bentley car slowly parked in a parking space opposite.
Charlie looked up inadvertently and saw a pair of young man and woman walking down the car.
The man is dressed in high-end suits, they look very stylish, and the women are coquettish. Although a bit gaudy, they are also rare beauties.
It turned out to be Claire’s cousin Wendy, and her about to be engaged fiance, Gerald, the eldest of the White family.
Charlie didn’t know what Wendy and Gerald were doing in the Emgrand Group, but in order to avoid trouble, he still prepared to hideaway.
Unexpectedly, things are hiding more and more.
The sharp-eyed Wendy immediately saw him and shouted loudly: “Oh, brother-in-law!”
Wendy’s brother-in-law yelled extremely cordially, but Charlie couldn’t help but he strode faster after hearing it.
Out of courtesy, he could only stop, and when the two approached, he smiled and said, “Wendy, why are you here?”
Wendy giggled: “I and Gerald came over to meet with Doris, the vice chairman of Emgrand Group!”
After that, she looked at Gerald with admiration and said, “Gerald’s family has a lot of cooperation with the Emgrand Group. In the future, not only will it help the White family, but also our Willson family.”
Charlie didn’t know that the White family had a cooperation with the Emgrand Group. After all, the Emgrand Group had just become his industry and had not had time to understand it.
But he didn’t show it, just smiled and said: “The Prince has an extraordinary temperament and a good strength. You are really talented and beautiful!”
Gerald White looked at Charlie contemptuously, and couldn’t help feeling injustice in his heart.
This stinky rug was scolded by Mrs. Willson yesterday as a dog, and today he has a hippy smile like a okay person.
Why would a stunning beauty like Claire marry such a useless waste?
If it weren’t for this useless man, he would definitely pursue Claire desperately, and how could he be engaged to this inferior Wendy in every respect?
Thinking of this, Gerald was upset, and deliberately asked, “What did brother-in-law come to the Emgrand Group for?”
Charlie said casually: “I’m looking for a job.”
“Looking for a job?” He sneered and said, “Why do you want to find a job in the Emgrand Group?”
Charlie frowned: “What does my job search have to do with you?”
Wendy called Charlie to stop, just trying to sarcastically sarcasm him. Seeing that Gerald had started first, she immediately sneered: “Why, is Gerald wrong?”
“For academic qualifications, do you have a diploma?”
“If you want a job, do you have any achievements apart from your uselessness?”
“If you come to the Emgrand Group to apply for a security guard, They will not want a waste like you. If you are a little self-knowing, you might as well go picking up rubbish on the street. You can earn two or three thousand at least a month!”
After speaking, she threw the drink bottle in her hand at Charlie’s feet and hummed: “Hey, don’t say I don’t take care about you, pick up this empty bottle and sell it for money!”
Gerald smiled and said: “Although you are rubbish, since you are a relative, then I have to take care of you as much as possible. It just so happens that I have some friendship with the vice chairman of the Emgrand Group. Why don’t I help you with two good things and let her arrange it for you? A job cleaning the toilet?”
Charlie smiled coldly and said: “The kind of job I am looking for, you don’t need to worry about it. You should worry about yourself. Emgrand Group is a large enterprise. I believe they will not cooperate with you with such low-quality garbage.”
Gerald suddenly got furious: “Who do you say is rubbish!”
Charlie said disdainfully: “You are rubbish!”
After speaking, he was too lazy to talk to Gerald, and walked into the Emgrand Group Building.
“Drafting it, stop for me!” Gerald quickly followed, and caught up with Charlie at the elevator entrance.
He wanted to teach Charlie a good lesson, but at least slapped him twice to let him know the fate of people offending him.
But when he saw that he was already inside the Emgrand Group Building, he was worried that doing something here would anger his partners, so he had to temporarily dismiss the idea of teaching him.
he gritted his teeth and said, “I will let you go for a while today, and you won’t have such good luck next time!”
Charlie snorted coldly, stepped into the elevator, and said to him: “Gerald, do you think you are a powerful? Believe me, you will soon know the cost of arrogance!”
“f*ck you” Gerald stepped into the elevator.
Wendy gave him a hand and said in a contemptuous tone: “Gerald, don’t take the same elevator with this kind of rubbish, lest you get smoked by the stench on his body.”
Gerald nodded, knowing that he couldn’t do something with him here, so he said coldly: “Letting you go, I want you to look good next time!”
Charlie took the elevator directly to the top floor where the chairman’s office was.
On the side of the Emgrand Group, Stephen Thompson had already arranged it for him, and the person in charge of docking with him was a woman named Doris Yong.
Doris is well-known in Aurous Hill, and she is the most famous career oriented woman in Aurous Hill. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also very capable of working. She has been promoted to the vice chairman of Emgrand Group at a young age. She has contributed to Emgrand Group’s existence today.
Now that the Emgrand Group has been acquired by the Wade Family, the original chairman has abdicated, and Doris stayed and prepared to assist the new chairman.
When she saw Charlie, Doris was shocked. She didn’t expect that Charlie would be so young and handsome!
After that, she did not dare to delay, and immediately said respectfully: “Mr. Wade, please come to my office.”
Chapter 4
Charlie also saw Doris for the first time.
I have to say that Doris looks really beautiful!
At the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, she has a slender and plump figure, an alluring beauty and a noble and capable temperament.
Charlie sat down at Doris’s desk and said: “I won’t come to the Emgrand Group often in the future, so the Emgrand Group wants you to preside over the overall situation, and don’t reveal my identity.”
Doris knew that the Charlie family in front of her was extraordinary, and an emgrand group was nothing short of drizzle to his family, and it was normal to not want to manage it himself.
So she hurriedly said: “Mr. Wade, if you have anything in the future, you can just tell me.”
At this time, a female secretary knocked on the door and came in and said, “Miss Doris, there is a man named Gerald who has brought his fiancée to visit you.”
Doris immediately said: “I’m seeing the distinguished guests, let them wait first.”
Charlie asked her: “Do you know this Gerald?”
Doris hurriedly said: “His family is a partner under us, and their main business is dependent on us. Their family has always said that they will come to visit, and they have been here several times.”
Charlie said coldly: “From now on, the Emgrand Group will no longer have any business dealings with the White Family. All ongoing and preparatory cooperation will be suspended. If the White Family can still earn a cent from the Emgrand Group, you deputy Chairman, will have to pack your things!”
When Doris heard this, her expression suddenly frightened. She didn’t need to ask to know that someone from the White family must have offended the young master.
So she nodded immediately and said: “Mr.Wade, don’t worry, I will order now to terminate all cooperation with the White family!”
Charlie snorted and said, “Tell them that Emgrand Group will not cooperate with low-quality garbage, and then let the security guards drive them out.”
Outside, Gerald and Wendy were waiting excitedly.
The White family has always wanted to become a strategic partner of the Emgrand Group, so they especially hope to get closer to Doris.
But unexpectedly, Doris’s secretary came with several security guards.
Gerald couldn’t help asking her: “Hello, will Miss Doris have time to see us?”
The secretary looked at him and said coldly: “I’m sorry, our Deputy Doris said, Emgrand Group will not cooperate with people of low quality like you, from now on, we are canceling all cooperation with your family!”
“what did you say?!”
Gerald was stunned for a moment, and was astonished. Why is this sentence so familiar?
Oh, right! When he was in the parking lot just now, Charlie also said exactly the same thing!
What does Miss Doris mean? Why should they stop cooperating with the White family?
Gerald felt his brain congested.
what happened?
Terminate all cooperation?
More than half of White’s profits are made by the Emgrand Group!
If the cooperation is terminated, wouldn’t the family strength be cut by half immediately? !
He could not accept this reality and shouted: “I want to see Miss Doris! I want to ask Miss Doris face to face!”
The secretary said coldly: “I’m sorry, our Deputy Doris won’t see you, and you won’t be allowed to step into the Emgrand Group in the future!”
Gerald scolded angrily: “Did you deliberately play with me? We are a long-term partner of the Emgrand Group. How can we terminate cooperation like this!”
The secretary ignored him and said directly to the security guards around him: “Take them out!”
The security captain rushed forward, grabbed Gerald’s wrist, and then twisted it behind him.
Gerald yelled in pain, and the guard yelled coldly: “Get out! If you dare to make trouble in the Emgrand Group, be careful that I dispose of you!”
“You are a security captain, dare to yell at me, do you know who I am?”
As soon as Gerald’s voice fell, Captain slapped him and cursed, “In front of the Emgrand Group, what are you?”
Gerald was slapped with a fierce pain on his face. When he was about to get angry, the phone rang suddenly.
The call turned out to be from his father.
When the phone was connected, an angry roar came from the other side: “Gerald, what did you do? Now that Emgrand Group wants to cancel all cooperation with us, who did you offend?”
Gerald said aggrievedly: “Dad, I have not offended anyone. I just came to visit Miss Doris, but I haven’t even seen Miss Doris’s face.”
On the other end of the phone, Gerald’s father yelled, “The people of the Emgrand Group said that the reason they discontinued their cooperation with the White family is all because you are an unqualified rubbish! Now the family has suffered heavy losses because of you, so you hurry back to me and personally Explain to your grandpa!”
Gerald was driven out of the gate of Emgrand Group by security all the way, holding the phone with a surprised expression.
He suddenly thought of Charlie, and couldn’t help asking Wendy: “Wendy, is it because of your rubbish brother-in-law? Has he have anything to do with the Emgrand Group?”
“Huh?” Wendy was taken aback by Gerald’s words, thinking about it carefully, it might indeed be related to her rubbish brother-in-law.
However, he is obviously a waste!
Thinking of this, she shook her head flatly and said: “How could he have something to do with the Emgrand Group? He is not qualified to come to the Emgrand Group to clean the toilet!”
“That’s right.” Gerald nodded, thinking of his furious father, he said sullenly: “No, I have to go home quickly.”
The news that the White family was terminated by the Emgrand Group immediately spread throughout Aurous Hill.
Although it is not known why the Emgrand Group wants to block the White Family, everyone knows that the White Family must have offended the Emgrand Group.
At this time, the White family was over.
The White family’s strength has plummeted by more than half. It was already close to the standard of the first-tier family, but now it has fallen directly into the tail of the second-tier family.
When the Old Mrs. Willson heard the news, she was shaking with anger.
She wanted to annul the marriage contract between Wendy and Gerald, but thought that the White family was thinner and camel was bigger than the horse, and the Willson family could not afford to offend, so she could only give this thought up temporarily.
At this time, in Doris’s office.
Charlie learned the whole process just now and admired her style very much.
Charlie said with satisfaction: “Doris, what you did just now is very good. Starting today, your salary will be double.”
Doris was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stood up and bowed to Charlie, “Thank you Mr. Wade!”
Charlie nodded and said, “Also, I want you to announce two things.”
“Mr. Wade, say it, and it will be done.”
“The first thing is to announce the change of ownership of Emgrand Group and the appointment of the new chairman, but do not reveal the identity of the new chairman, only the last name is Wade, that is what people need to know.”
“The second thing is to announce that Emgrand Group will invest 2 billion in Aurous Hill to build a six-star hotel. At the same time, it will launch a partner bidding. Construction and decoration companies in the city can participate in the bidding!”
The main business of the Willson Group is decoration. The Lady Willson dreams of going to the big ship of Emgrand Group. Whoever can win the cooperation of the Emgrand Group will definitely become the red man of the Willson Group.
Now the Emgrand Group is his own, and of course he has to give his wife some benefits.
Chapter 5
The two news released by the Emgrand Group completely detonated the entire Aurous Hill.
Hearing that the Emgrand Group has changed hands, the Willson family wanted to understand why the White Family was kicked out by the Emgrand Group.
It seems that the new owner of the Emgrand Group still looks down on families likes of the White Family.
But who is Mr. Wade? Is this person too good? The Emgrand Group, which has hundreds of billions, buys and buys, and the richest man in Aurous Hill is not as big as his!
For a time, countless families were ready to move. On the one hand, they were eager to have a relationship with this mysterious Mr. Wade, and on the other hand, they also longed for their daughter to marry Mr. Wade.
In addition, the Emgrand Group wants to invest in a hotel project of 2 billion, which also makes the entire Aurous Hill construction and decoration industry tremble!
Two billion!
Just get a little leftover material, and you can make a lot of money!
Countless companies want to get a share of it.
This naturally also includes the Old Mrs. Willson who is addicted to money!
Mrs. Willson was very excited at this time. This is a great opportunity for a two billion project!
If the Willson family can get a contract from it, it will really be ascended to heaven!
So she immediately ordered a family meeting to be held at home tonight to discuss how to make a breakthrough in the new project of the Emgrand Group. Everyone must attend!
That night, Willson’s villa.
Because the Lady Willson asked everyone to be there, Charlie followed.
He knew that the Lady Willson was going to a meeting to discuss how to get a share of the Emgrand Group’s big project.
Therefore, he wanted to take this opportunity to help his wife Claire grow her face!
When he arrived at the Willson family villa, Claire’s cousin Harold immediately sneered when he saw him: “f*ck, Charlie, you have such a thick skin, and you have the face to see grandma again!”
Claire said with a cold face: “Don’t talk nonsense. Grandma asked everyone in the Willson family to come. Charlie is my husband, and naturally also from the Willson family!”
Harold laughed and said, “He is though considered a half Willson family! But just a live-in son-in-law!”
Charlie touched his nose and said to Claire, “Forget about him my wife, don’t be familiar with him, go in quickly, save grandma waiting.”
Claire nodded, and owed Harold a good face, and walked in with Charlie.
Seeing this, Harold’s expression also became cold, waiting for them to look good.
After entering the conference hall, Charlie and Claire found a place in the corner to sit down.
Soon, Mrs. Willson stepped forward and the family meeting officially began.
The Old Mrs. Willson sat in the main seat, knocked on the table, and said vigorously: “The Willson family has been waiting for an opportunity in the past few years, an opportunity that can make us one of the richest in Aurous Hill! Now, this opportunity has finally come!”
Mrs. Willson said loudly: “This time the Emgrand Group has thrown out a two-billion-dollar project. Whoever can get a cooperation contract from it will definitely benefit a lot!”
“Moreover, this is the first major project of the Emgrand Group after the change of ownership. For the Willson family, it is a great opportunity!”
“If we can cooperate with the Emgrand Group and leave a good impression on the new owner of the Emgrand Group, then the future of the Willson family will be limitless!”
Although the Lady Willson was very energetic, the people below seemed a little unmoved.
In fact, it is not a day or two for the Willson family to cooperate with the Emgrand Group. For such a long time, the Emgrand Group has ignored the Willson family. The Lady Willson now wants to take a share of the new project of the Emgrand Group. How can it be possible?
Seeing that all the people present were silent, Mrs. Willson immediately questioned in annoyance: “What? Are all dumb? Don’t you have the confidence to take a little leftover from the 2 billion project?”
Everyone looks at her and each other, but they dare not talk to each other.
The Lady Willson was even more angry, and gritted her teeth and said: “I will put the words here today, who can talk about the 30 million cooperation share from Emgrand Group, who is the director of the group!”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone sitting was taken aback.
The Lady Willson has always been arbitrary, so she has never appointed a director in the group. After all, the director has a lot of power, and it is almost the successor of the future group that is qualified to hold this position.
The Lady Willson is now using this position as a reward. She definitely hopes that there will be a brave competition for the reward. It can be seen that she is extremely eager for the Emgrand Group project.
However, although the position of the director is good, it is not so easy to take.
In the eyes of the Willson family, if you want to reach a cooperation with Emgrand, you have to get a contract of 30 million? Don’t be kidding, even if Mrs. Willson goes out in person, the executives of the Emgrand Group will not see her, let alone talk about cooperation.
There was silence in the family meeting hall.
Seeing this, the Old Mrs. Willson asked angrily: “You are descendants of the Willson family, don’t you want to share the worries for the Willson family?”
After that, the Old Mrs. Willson looked directly at Harold: “Harold, leave this to you!”
Harold laughed a few times and quickly said: “Grandma, even Gerald’s house has been cleared by the Emgrand Group now. Our strength is worse than the Whites. How can we get the Emgrand Group contract?”
Mrs. Willson suddenly cursed: “rubbish! Deny yourself if you haven’t tried it. You are more rubbish than Charlie!”
In fact, Mrs. Willson didn’t know her heart, but she didn’t want to be the helm of a second-and third-rate clan forever. She dreamed and longed for the Willson family to rise to the next level.
And this Emgrand Group project is the only opportunity.
Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, she would not give up.
She thought that Harold, as the eldest grandson, would be able to take over the task happily, but she did not expect that he would withdraw at this time!
Harold was also very depressed, who would take on such an impossible task? He was afraid that he will be kicked out before entering the gate of the Emgrand Group.
At that time, not only did things fail, but they were also ridiculed and laughed at by others, so he decided not to agree in any way.
After cursing Harold, the Old Mrs. Willson shouted and asked: “Where are the others? Don’t you dare to take this task?”
Charlie lightly touched Claire with his elbow at this time, and whispered: “Wife, you take this task!”
Claire hurriedly said: “It’s crazy! It’s impossible for the Emgrand Group to cooperate with a small company like the Willson family!”
Charlie smiled slightly and said confidently: “Don’t worry, you can definitely talk about this cooperation!”
Claire asked in surprise, “Really?”
Charlie said confidently: “Of course! I don’t think you have a problem at all! Seize this opportunity, and your future status in the Willson family will Hangingrocket!”
Claire didn’t know why. At this moment, she believed Charlie’s words in a bewildered manner.
She stood up subconsciously and said to the Old Mrs. Willson: “Grandma, I’m willing to try.”
Chapter 6
Claire’s statement made the entire Willson family stunned!
Everyone felt that Claire must be crazy!
Don’t divide the time to show off! At this moment of being in the limelight, what can be the result besides death?
The Emgrand Group is the largest company in Aurous Hill. How can people look at the Willson family? Whoever talks about it will never succeed!
Harold couldn’t help but sarcastically said: “Claire, do you think you can get the contract from the Emgrand Group?”
Harold’s own sister and Claire’s cousin, Wendy, also sneered at this moment: “Sister Claire, what is your identity, and what is the identity of the Emgrand Group? You go to talk so rashly, don’t shame our Willson family. !”
Someone agreed: “That is, if she is driven out by the Emgrand Group by then, our Willson family will definitely become a laughing stock in Aurous Hill!”
When Claire heard the sound, her cheeks were extremely red, feeling very embarrassed.
Since marrying Charlie, her status in the family has plummeted, becoming less and less important, and almost squeezed out, and even her parents have been ridiculed.
She felt that if she could talk about this project with the Emgrand Group, her position in the family would definitely be consolidated.
The most important thing is that parents can also stand upright.
But at this moment, being ridiculed by so many people, she couldn’t help but retreat.
She gave Charlie a depressed look. Why did she listen to his bewitching words? Won’t get up for this if she knew it
Old Mrs. Willson was very angry when she heard what everyone said.
After asking this question several times, no one dared to take this task. Now Claire took the initiative to stand up, and the group of people began to pour cold water again!
Although the Old Mrs. Willson had always disliked Claire, at this time, she felt that Claire was at least willing to share her worries, unlike other people who only knew to hide in their shells at this moment!
Especially Harold, her beloved grandson, really disappointed her, too much!
Because of this, Mrs. Willson’s attitude towards Claire also changed a lot.
So she immediately said: “Since others dare not agree, don’t talk nonsense! This time we cooperate with Emgrand Group on the project, let Claire talk about it!”
Claire could only bite the bullet and replied, “Don’t worry, grandma, I will definitely go all out.”
At this time, Harold sneered coldly from his nose and said, “What’s the use of going all out? It’s not a shame for the family to fail in the end!”
Charlie asked with a sneer, “Harold, what is your purpose in singing badly? Don’t you think the Willson family is qualified to cooperate with Emgrand Group?”
Harold didn’t expect that Charlie would dare to speak at the family meeting, and he would wear a high hat on himself.
Seeing that Mrs. Willson’s expression was also a little sulky, he immediately explained: “I don’t mean that, I just think it is impossible for Claire to discuss this cooperation!”
Charlie smiled and asked him: “Then what if she can talk about cooperation at first? Shall we make a bet?”
Harold sneered: “Come on, just gamble, I will be afraid of you? Tell me, what are you betting on?”
Charlie said: “If she start to negotiate a contract, you kneel down and knock me three heads in front of the whole family and say you are wrong. If she can’t negotiate at first, I will knock three heads for you and say aloud that I was wrong, what do you think?”
“Hahahaha!” Harold immediately laughed wildly: “You rubbish are really looking for death! Okay, I’ll bet with you!”
Charlie nodded in satisfaction and said: “The whole family is here to witness that if anyone goes back, it will be equivalent to wishing death for father, mother, grandpa, grandma!”
Charlie deliberately said the three words “dead grandma” very seriously, because he was afraid that Harold would back out it when he loses.
As soon as these words came out, Harold never dared to go back, because in that way, wouldn’t it be cursing his grandma, that is, Old Mrs. Willson to die? When the time comes, Mrs. Willson will not let him go!
“Okay!” Harold didn’t know that Charlie had dug a hole for him, but instead felt that it was impossible for him to lose.
So, he laughed and said: “The whole family witnesses, I am waiting for you to kowtow to me!”
Claire was startled, and kept winking at him, but she didn’t expect him to completely ignore it.
Old Mrs. Willson didn’t care about this kind of gambling. Her only concern was whether she could enter the Emgrand Group’s cooperation list this time. If she could, don’t say let Harold kneel to Charlie, even if Harold called Charlie his father, she didn’t care either.
So she said: “Today’s meeting ends here. Claire, you have three days to win the contract and the meeting ends!”
Back home, the father-in-law and mother-in-law immediately attacked Charlie and Claire.
The mother-in-law Elaine was anxiously worried, and blurted out: “Claire, you are crazy, how can you listen to Charlie’s rubbish words, so confused and promised this job!”
Father-in-law Jacob Willson also scolded Charlie and said, “Charlie, Charlie, you rubbish, you have killed my girl!”
Then, his father-in-law said angrily: “If you can’t talk about the Emgrand Group’s cooperation in the first place, you will definitely be squeezed out by the family. You, this rubbish, will also kneel and kowtow to Harold in front of the whole family. Don’t let you lose it?”
Charlie said seriously: “Dad and Mom, as long as the contract can be negotiated at first, everything will be solved?”
“Talk, talk, talk! Talk all bullsh*t!”
The father-in-law scolded: “Do you know how strong the Emgrand Group is? How can they look at the Willson family!”
Charlie smiled and said, “Maybe people can see it? I think it must be fine at first, and she can definitely get the contract down.”

Well, I did say this was a multi-fandom blog... Alright, let's do this.
The Qing Jing Peak Lord's Bamboo House
(and the symbolism therein, as recorded in the donghua)
I was snooping through the establishing shots of the Qing Jing Peak Lord's Bamboo House, and had to laugh as I always do at all the gay symbolism that managed to sneak its way inside. But then I looked a little closer, and was floored by just how much passive storytelling was packed into background assets. I talked about it at length over discord, and at the urging of others decided to make a shareable post on social media as well.
First, the shots which first piqued my interest in this topic years ago:
Shen Yuan transmigrates into the stallion-genre webnovel entitled 狂傲仙魔途 (translated as Proud Immortal Demon Way). The author's and his own usernames are dick jokes.
Notice the chrysanthemum vase, the cock vase, and the stallion statuette.
The stallion and cock are obvious nods to these jokes on their own, but for the uninitiated, the chrysanthemum is a symbol of gay sex between men, as the asshole itself is often euphemistically referred to as a chrysanthemum. This should have been Shen Yuan's first clue that not all is as it seems here! These are the personal quarters of Shen Jiu — the original Shen Qingqiu!
But let's move to the main room you first walk into upon entering the bamboo house.
There it is: the writing on the wall.
As the Peak Lord of strategy and the scholarly arts, Shen Qingqiu would naturally have calligraphy and paintings hanging everywhere! So let's break it down.
On the top we have 道㳒自然 ("Dao Follows Nature"), which comes from a Dao teaching by Laozi (founder of Daoism) meaning that life, death, the entire universe, the heavens and earth and everything outside and inbetween, all follow a set of laws referred to as the nature of things. Although unrelated to the Buddhist couplet below, it's certainly relevant!
Originally hanging in right-to-left order, I've arranged them to read left to right here to make things easier to keep track of. The calligraphy reads 西方竹葉千年翠;南海蓮九品香 and is a couplet commonly found in Guanyin temples. My classical chinese is not as strong as I'd like, but this translates roughly to "The bamboo leaves in Paradise are green for a thousand years / The fragrance of lotus flowers in the South China Sea is as thick as 9 sticks of incense."
The character 西 for West is used to denote the destination of enlightenment/purity: the buddhist Paradise (think Journey to the West). The South China Sea is where Guanyin was born. Upon the Lotus flowers is where Guanyin is commonly depicted as sitting. The "9 sticks of incense" though literal can also refer to the 9 tiers/grades of reincarnation lotuses with the 9th tier being the lowest, meant for those who in life committed the most evil of crimes — the 4 parajikas — and who can only manage a sincere Amitabha recitation 10 times and no more than this.
To put this in context with Shen Jiu (the same jiu as in 9/九), the 4 parajikas committed by the 9th Tier Lotuses Reborn (officially entitled the Lowest of the Low) are:
Sexual Intercourse
Stealing
Murder
Claiming attainments of stages of pure mental concentration that have not been achieved (in other words, rushing or lying about your cultivation/enlightenment, or maybe even becoming a Peak Lord without having formed a golden core beforehand).
From what we know in the context of the novel, Shen Jiu is innocent of at least the first of this parajikas, but the overall view of Shen Jiu in the eyes of others in the story is that he is guilty of them all. This calligraphy can be seen as a condemnation or a reminder for the character Shen Jiu, who even as the Peak Lord Shen Qingqiu is widely thought of as a scum villain and the lowest of the low.
Phew! That's a lot to unpack.
But if you turn your gaze to the original screenshot, you'll see to the right that there's a vase painted with a blue bird. This vase appears in several rooms of the bamboo house, and seems to be the image of a qingniao (青鸟; lit: Qing bird, wherein 青 can mean blue/green/clear-but-brackish black).
These qing-coloured birds are messengers and foragers of the Goddess-Mother of Paradise (Xiwang-mu 西王母, the "west/paradise" character from before, lit West-King(unisex)-Mother). They're a highly intelligent species who are exceptional in song (a good representative for Qing Jing's scholarly arts and pursuit of qin!), and the older ones might learn to speak human tongue. As a subspecies of luanniao (鸾鸟 lit: luan bird), they're thought to be related to The Phoenix and indeed thought to be the lifetime/samsara just before being reborn as a Phoenix.
If given to a "master" they don't like, the qingniao may refuse to pass messages or sing until they're set free, but if they do get along with you then they're loyal to the end.
As a point of interest, the Qing generation of Peak Lords uses the character 清, which is 青 ("colour of nature; brackish black, blue, green; young) + the radical for "water," resulting in the meaning of clear (as in water or heart; see-through); distinct; quiet (as in still); just and honest; pure; to settle or clear up; to clean up, expunge, or purge.
And as a bit of trivia, Liu Qingge's sword Cheng Luan 乘鸾 means "to ride the luan, take flight on the back of a luan." (Relevant, because the qingniao is considered a subspecies of luanniao).
With the Lords of both Qing Jing and Bai Zhan referencing this bird, I really wonder about its significance! It's spawning plenty of theories and headcanons for me.
Heading back outside for a moment, you'll find that in the Quiet Pool (清静小池 qingjing xiaochi (yes, the same Qing Jing the peak is named for)), there are lotuses, and on land there are flower shrubs which are either wide-petaled chrysanthemums (gay bottom jokes ahoy), or a type of peony, the king of flowers demarcating wealth and prosperity. Either way, a blossom fitting of our Qing Jing Peak Lord Shen Qingqiu!
My one regret is that I cannot get a clear shot of the fan hanging on the wall to try and translate the calligraphy on it. If anyone can snag one, please tag me! I also couldn't translate the paintings with poems hanging in Shen Qingqiu's bedroom (it's just too small and blurry for my bad eyes to make out). If I make another post attempting these things, I'll append them to this initial post in an edit afterwards.

Cute lil drawing I made after reading the hilarious fanfic that is Tra-shroom and his Second Chance at Life.
Just so you know only Law is a mushroom in the story. I just wanted to add in a cute mushroom Luffy to match Law in my drawing lol.
Also I highly suspect this fic is inspired by that one Mushroom Danmei webnovel that I have yet to read >.>

Exhibit A:
Girlfriends 😆💞
They get all lovey dovey (mainly Yeoryeong and Dani is just sitting there all flustered) when hanging out with the gang and they're just "Really guys? In front of my salad?"
