Chapter 01: The past and present of Song Qingshu

Hello!

This is Goblinslate and I will be translating the novel Flower Stealing Master.
This is a novel by the same author as Keyboard Immortal and it’s also the first novel written by him.
This is a very good novel and will be a satisfying read especially for those who like Harem, Intelligent Protagonists, Kingdom Building, and all the Ecchi stuff that comes along with it.

This is my first time translating a web novel.
So please feel free to point out any mistakes.
For now I will be translating in my own pace, but it may change depending on the situation.

That’s all from me! Enjoy~

—————————————-

Song Qing was full of hatred.
He was an orphan since he was a child.
He worked very hard to survive in the society, and built a big family business at a young age.
He entered the upper-class society and there he met that woman.

She was beautiful and elegant, and there were many excellent young suitors around her.
But Song Qingshu never regarded them as his opponents, until that man appeared.

His family has a huge background, and he is also handsome and extraordinary.
What’s more important is that the two of them grew up together.
They got together more than ten years later, and they were pleasantly surprised to find that the other had grown into such an outstanding character.

The goddess hesitated between the two.
In order to bring the beauty back, Song Qingshu meticulously designed a lot of small tricks and coincidences.
He constantly won the goddess’s favour, and the balance of victory gradually tilted towards Song Qingshu.

During the whole process, the man just looked at everything indifferently, until finally at a suitable time, he pretended to accidentally reveal everything Song Qingshu had done before.

When the goddess realized that the previous meetings were all scams, and she turned away without hesitation.
Song Qingshu would never forget the disgusted look in her eyes when she left, and her word before leaving, “No matter how much you do, compared to him you are nothing.
“Compared to him you are nothing” These words echoed in his ears for a long time.

The man maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and treated Song Qingshu with courtesy until after he married the goddess.

On the second day of marriage, Song Qingshu’s company ushered in tragic revenge.
At that moment, Song Qingshu learned about the power of a really big family, how terrifying a monster was hidden under the water.

Looking up, he thought of the words the goddess spoke at the beginning, and he felt pain again, “You are all born nobles, of course, you don’t need to do anything.
If I am not a successful person, I’m afraid I don’t have the qualifications to even talk to you.
Haha… I have grown from a small person at the bottom of the society to a man with a net worth of billions.
Can I get the things I want without the means of blood and tears? I am used to calculations and methods, but in the end, you think that there is a problem with my character.”

At that moment, Song Qingshu didn’t know why he thought of Duan Yu and Murong Fu.
Song Qingshu has always disliked Duan Yu.
He doesn’t have to do anything all day.
He only needs to travel around the mountains to play with his sister.
He didn’t need to practice internal skills, but just suck in others’ hard work for a lifetime.
Internal force; he doesn’t want to learn martial arts, but all kinds of peerless cheats are automatically delivered to his front door; It’s like everything was destined to be his!

On the other hand, Murong Fu was forced to work hard, bearing the hatred of the country and the family.
He practiced martial arts diligently since he was a child.
He lived for the great cause of restoring the country.
He didn’t have the time to take care of his own personal affairs.
