CHAPTERS
A heavy, black wooden door. Perhaps because it was as simple as Doctor Kim's office door, I remembered the first time I'd fallen here and met her. I wasn't this nervous back then, damn it. I could more or less predict how Doctor Kim would react, but Tairok was different. I couldn’t guess how he’d respond, and that was what made my stomach churn. Phew. I took a deep breath, and the door before me finally moved. "Your Grace, Adeye Lu has arrived." Rick introduced me and turned around. I…- 323.4 K • Completed
“Why not?” “Please look over there. The people who tried to reach the carriage all collapsed like that.” Collapsed on their way to the carriage? Why? The monster didn’t even come this way. Who could have done it… Colorful waves spread before my eyes, and the spirit flapping in the air met my gaze. Then I remembered what I said. ‘Stay here and protect your Petal. I’ll lure the monster elsewhere, and if someone comes, you must block them.’ Could the people lying on the…- 323.4 K • Completed
Prologue I thought I was almost there. I had worked with everything I had for this goal. What goal? To stop the destruction of the world I live in. For that, I crossed into a strange dimension and even signed a contract to marry a man. Now all that man had to do was sign the paper. Then I could finally pass the biggest obstacle… Click. He put the unsigned contract straight into the drawer. Why? Why would he do that? I didn’t ask the question and opened my mouth carefully. “Is…- 323.4 K • Completed
“But I mean it, Fanfan…” He Jiang wrapped his arms around Xu Fanming, trapping him against his chest. He lowered his head, his soft lips wandered along Xu Fanming’s neck, each breath he exhaled warm and teasing, sending shivers through him. “Look at the time. It’s late. Grown-ups have their own nightlife, don’t they…” And then he kissed him again. He Jiang wanted Xu Fanming to get used to being kissed by him, so he slowed his pace, guiding him gently, coaxing his lips open little by…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
Of course there was no beer. At eleven thirty at night, He Jiang dragged Xu Fanming, who was wearing the most miserable expression imaginable into the elevator. Once they reached the apartment, he opened the door, shoved him inside, and locked it behind them. Xu Fanming was still muttering, “Hurry up and give me the card. Dorm curfew’s at midnight!” “Silly Fanming,” He Jiang stood at the entryway, blocking the door completely with his body. His brows lifted, lips curved into a smug grin…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
Fang Ruihan spoke up. “I used to love watching basketball games back in middle school, but I didn’t start playing seriously until college.” He smiled. “The reason I picked it up in the first place… was because I had a friend who really loved the sport. He was the one who introduced me to it. I never expected that I’d end up liking it even more than he did.” As soon as Fang Ruihan started sharing his story, the conversation opened up. Since the topic had come up, everyone around the…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
After watching Zhu Xuyao and Pan Yuan, then Fang Ruihan and Wen Qin all leave one after another, He Jiang walked over to the sofa, crouched down, and patted Xu Fanming’s face. “Get up. The sun’s already burning your ass.” Xu Fanming let out a low groan, and slowly opened his eyes. His face still carried the anxious look from whatever dream he had just left. He Jiang hailed a cab and helped him into it. The ride took about half an hour. Along the way, He Jiang bought a bottle of water and…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
Later, Xu Fanming went back to drinking. He didn’t even look at the labels. He just cracked open one can after another and kept drinking. The bitter, burning alcohol hit his stomach hard, and his drunkenness deepened. Eventually, he ended up hugging the toilet, vomiting until even his steps started to wobble. He Jiang held him up and helped him sit on the toilet lid. Xu Fanming just sat there with a blank look on his face, like he wasn’t even sure what he was thinking anymore. He hadn’t eaten…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
"I think Fanfan said he went to the bathroom, didn’t he?" In the hallway of the KTV, muffled singing spilled out from the private room. Zhu Xuyao had already taken He Jiang past several restrooms, knocking on each door in turn. "Now that I think about it, he’s been in there a while. Did that idiot fall in or something?" Zhu Xuyao knocked on the door of one of the single-occupancy restrooms near another private room. After a few knocks, there was a faint noise from inside. He knocked again.…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
By the time He Jiang got back to his apartment, he was drenched in sweat. It had been a long time since he’d played a game that satisfying. He closed the door behind him, walking toward the bathroom as he unbuttoned his shirt, tossing his dirty clothes to the floor along the way. After showering, still wrapped in a faint mist of steam, He Jiang came out of the bathroom. He carefully smoothed out his No. 10 jersey and hung it on the rack by the wardrobe. Then, he sat down on the sofa and stared at…- 160.3 K • Ongoing
