CHAPTERS
It was sometime in the afternoon. Shi Yi had some personal matters to take care of that day, and since the place wasn’t far from Ying Ming’s house, he decided to drop by after finishing up. He pressed the doorbell for a while. Just as he was about to assume no one was home, Ying Ming finally came to open the door, looking a bit of a mess. His whole body was covered in foam, his bangs clipped back with a hairpin, making him look ridiculous. "What the hell are you doing at home?" What was…- 283.2 K • Completed
- After four days of rally racing, Shi Yi returned to the city and drove straight to the office instead of going home. He had complete trust in Ou Yang’s handling of things, but there were still decisions that required his personal approval. Paperwork could be postponed, but it couldn’t be delayed indefinitely. Ou Yang wasn’t the least bit surprised to see him back. “With your workaholic nature, I really can’t tell if this company is blessed or cursed.” Shi Yi took off his jacket and…

- After Kou Jing finished speaking, Ying Ming instinctively furrowed his brows but didn’t say anything. He simply nodded to show he understood, then carried his breakfast back to his room. Shi Yi was still asleep. Ying Ming set the tray aside and walked over to the window, pulling it open. The sun looked strong, but the temperature wasn’t high. A gust of wind rushed into the room, making Ying Ming shiver. The person on the bed must have felt it too. He stirred, then groggily poked his head out…

- Dinner arrived past eight. The rain outside seemed to be easing up, but neither of them felt like driving through the night. They ate quickly. Shi Yi went to shower first while Ying Ming lay on the bed, smoking and playing cards. Once Shi Yi was done, Ying Ming took his turn. When he finished, he realized there was no bathrobe. The room had been booked for a single occupant, so everything was provided in one set. After rinsing off the body wash, all he had was a small towel. With no other option,…

- Ying Ming and Shi Yi were still casually chatting, watching TV while glancing at the sky. The two of them had different tastes in shows, so whenever they disagreed, they would just take jabs at each other. When the rain started falling, Shi Yi even took the chance to boast about how foresighted he was. But after more than two hours of nonstop rain, they couldn’t help but glance at each other. “This rain is seriously messed up…” At first, it seemed like just a passing shower, something that…

- Ying Ming was woken up by Kou Jing’s call. The combination of vibration and ringtone was especially jarring inside the car. He struggled for a long while before finally opening his eyes, groggily scanning his surroundings. It took him another moment to fish out his phone. "Hello.” His voice was thick with drowsiness. “Mingzi! Where the hell did you two go?” “Took the car out for a drive. The competition’s still on, isn’t it?” He scratched his head, trying to sit up. The…

- Driving at night was a dull task. Even in the daytime, long-distance trips could make a person zone out, let alone at night when everything beyond the headlights was pitch black. Shi Yi had the high beams on, illuminating nothing but rocky slopes and dirt roads. After a while, Ying Ming turned on the car’s audio system, and a blast of heavy metal music erupted from the speakers. Both of them jumped. Ying Ming quickly switched it off and ejected the CD. It was an album from a band. "You listen…

- Weisai handled the discussions separately with Ying Ming and Shi Yi. Kou Jing was also present. When Ying Ming met the lawyer, Kou Jing was right beside him. Seeing him push the door open, he stood up to greet him. "Mingzi, how are you? You're really okay?" The latter shook his head. "I'm fine." Only then did Kou Jing sit back down. Before doing so, he introduced the two people next to him. "Mingzi, this is Chen Fengli, a board member of Weisai. And over there is our legal consultant, Zhao…

- After finishing their meal, Shi Yi said he wanted to take a nap. They had originally planned to leave after two in the afternoon. But before he could even fall asleep, he got a call from Kou Jing. Kou Jing told him that someone from Weisai would be coming in the afternoon and asked him and Ying Ming to wait a little longer before setting off. As soon as the call ended, Ying Ming’s phone rang. “Did Kou Jing tell you too?” “Yeah.” “Perfect, then get some more sleep.” It was…

- It wasn’t until much later that Shi Yi finally figured out why Ying Ming had looked so familiar. Turns out, he was a celebrity. Considering that face of his was his meal ticket, that made sense. Shi Yi tried to recall what roles Ying Ming had played but couldn’t come up with anything specific. It wasn't a huge surprise. He never really had much interest in movies to begin with. Watching movies had always felt like something to pass the time back in his student days. After leaving those…
