To Embers We Return (焚情) Read-Along: Chapters 11 to 20

[douqi]

Discussion of Chapters 1 to 10 can be found here.

The link to the novel on JJWXC is here.

Note: I'll try to catch up a little but will probably be a few days behind the actual chapter updates from now on, especially since she's going to drop about 10k words when the novel goes into VIP.
