Chapter 5 – Lost Lamb on a Forked Road
by Salted Fish — Almost immediately, Jiang Ruo guessed that Zhang Shaoyuan was behind it. Unable to speak openly about it, he could only express his confusion about this "sudden misfortune," hoping the production team would provide a legitimate reason. As an important figure overseeing all the work in the production crew, Zhao Sen had mastered the skill of treating people differently based on their status. He glanced at Jiang Ruo with a mocking attitude. "Are you a proper person yourself, asking me for a legitimate…

Chapter 49 – Secret Maneuver
by Salted Fish — At the recording site for the second round of "The Actor's Flower Road," Jiang Ruo had chosen the theme of his performance as "Silent Love." The script was written by a specially invited screenwriter from the production team, depicting the reactions of a congenitally deaf and mute young man when faced with his loved one — the restrained yet undeniable affection lurking in the details. This was a performance without dialogue, and since Jiang Ruo had rehearsed it countless times before taking the…

Chapter 48 – But he can’t
by Salted Fish — The Meng family's ancestral home was located in the eastern part of the city, nestled against a mountain and beside water, making it a precious piece of land with a reputation for auspiciousness, known for the purple aura coming from the east. When Xi Yufeng arrived, no one was in the living room. After a while, Mother Meng descended from upstairs and instructed the housekeeper to brew tea. They sat down and chatted for a bit. When Xi Yufeng took out the prenuptial agreement, Mother Meng's…

Chapter 47 – All I Want
by Salted Fish — Jiang Ruo had heard about it and didn't take it to heart. He merely recalled that Xi Yufeng had never mentioned his father before. It was Aunt Fang who had mentioned it once or twice, saying that the master knew that Xi Wangchen was useless, yet he still tried his best to lead him onto the right path. This showed that the master was biased. He didn't value Xi Yufeng despite how outstanding he was, but held Xi Wangchen, a good-for-nothing, in the palm of his hand because Xi Yufeng didn't have a mother to…

Chapter 46 – Couldn’t Wait
by Salted Fish — A wedding reception typically involves a set routine — the exchange of rings between the bride and groom, speeches from both sets of parents, and the playing of a sentimental video clip. Director Liu had prepared a short film centered around Zhou Xinyao, pieced together from various scenes. There were clips of her walking down the red carpet, eating ice cream, squatting outside a church feeding pigeons, dozing on a folding chair on set, and even footage of her covering her face in tears when she was…

Chapter 44 – Love Is
by Salted Fish — A brief exchange on WeChat. Jiang Ruo asked about the item left behind, and Xi Yufeng mentioned it was a script. It reminded Jiang Ruo that he had printed out extra copies of the "Skin" script before, with one placed under the coffee table, convenient for reading while lounging on the sofa. He had forgotten about it when moving out, so Jiang Ruo hesitantly asked, "Would it be too much trouble for you to mail it to me?" A few minutes later, Xi Yufeng replied, "It's not very convenient." It made…

Chapter 43 – World So Small
by Salted Fish — It was noon on New Year's Day, and the Xi family was hosting their family banquet. Because they were soon to become in-laws, the Meng family also sent representatives. Seating arrangements were significant; elders sat on one side while the younger generation took their places on the other. As soon as they were seated, Meng Lan couldn't help but steal several glances at Xi Yufeng, eventually leaning in to whisper, "What's wrong with you? You look terrible." Xi Yufeng seemed lost in thought, startled…

Chapter 42 – He Didn’t Say Goodbye
by Salted Fish — Two days before the Spring Festival, Jiang Ruo returned to the large apartment in the city center to pack up his belongings and move out. He had already confirmed from Aunt Fang's information that he chose a time when Xi Yufeng wouldn't be around. When using his fingerprint to unlock the door, everything inside remained as it was when he left. Jiang Ruo stared at his slippers by the entrance for a while before pulling out disposable shoe covers from his pocket. Fortunately, he didn't bring much…

Chapter 41 – Don’t Make Me Hate You
by Salted Fish — What followed for Jiang Ruo was an even longer, more profound silence. Xi Yufeng's expression was nearly blank, as if he had heard some obscure, incomprehensible language. But the subconscious reaction could not lie; Jiang Ruo did not see even a hint of surprise in his eyes, proving that he wasn't completely unaware of the matter at hand. The extent of Jiang Ruo's feelings for Xi Yufeng far exceeded reasonable bounds. Yet, understanding and hearing it firsthand were two vastly different…
