The Credentials of a Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 105
No matter how much he drank, it was useless.
The thirst was quenched only briefly; it never truly disappeared. If anything, it only grew worse.
Bake gulped down water furiously, then, frustrated by the unrelenting thirst, hurled the glass he’d been holding straight to the floor.
A sharp, clattering crash echoed through the room as the glass shattered—but that didn’t make his thirst vanish.
Eventually, Bake couldn’t endure it any longer and sank to the floor, his face buried in his hands.
He knew it. What he truly longed to drink right now wasn’t water.
It was alcohol.
He missed the cheap liquor his father used to drink.
Just one single glass of that drink felt like it could extinguish this burning thirst.
But was this really normal?
Bake slowly looked down at his own hands. Their subtle, involuntary trembling—something he’d seen too often before—made his mouth go dry.
His father had loved alcohol.
As a merchant who dealt with people constantly, he attended many drinking gatherings, and besides, he’d originally been a sailor.
His long-held belief was that nothing washed away the sea’s salty sting better than a good drink.
Yet ironically, that very creed—so faithfully upheld by his father like a religion—became the primary cause of his death.

Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
