CHAPTERS
Wen Zhongyi stayed in Sanka for over half a month. During that time, Meng Chuan returned alone using the stone and explained everything to Zhou Lu and Meng Jun. Zhou Lu, having lived for most of her life, had never heard of anything so fantastical. After a long pause to process, she trembled as she asked, “So what you’re saying is… Xiao Wen is actually an alien, and these past few days weren’t a vacation, but a trip to another world to meet his real parents?” “That’s what I’m…- 144.9 K • Completed
- While waiting for his father to return, Wen Zhongyi made his way into his bedroom with practiced ease. After getting married, he had rarely stayed here, but the villa still kept his room intact. Even though his father and dad no longer remembered him, the room remained clean and orderly. The only difference was that everything he’d once used had disappeared. The bedding was newly replaced, and the wardrobe stood completely empty. He stood at the doorway, eyes lowered, expression…

- “What’s wrong?” Dad asked softly, as if he didn’t understand why his eyes had suddenly turned red. “Nothing, just something got in my eye.” Wen Zhongyi’s throat was a little tight. He blinked rapidly, but accidentally blinked out a tear. He curled his knuckle and gently wiped the corner of his eye, feigning calm as he said, “It feels much better now.” Dad’s gaze lingered on Wen Zhongyi’s face for a moment. Then he freed one hand, pulled a tissue from his pocket, and handed it…

- Wen Zhongyi accepted Meng Chuan’s ring and even helped him put it on. “Then can we go back now?” Wen Zhongyi asked. “Did you tell your parents? We disappeared all of a sudden, they might be worried.” Meng Chuan studied the ring at the base of his ring finger, then looked up and smiled at him. “I told them, don’t worry.” On the way back, Meng Chuan had called Zhou Lu and said he was taking Wen Zhongyi on a trip out of town to relax, and he didn’t want to be disturbed, so he might…

- One morning a week later, Meng Chuan drove Wen Zhongyi out for some fresh air. Wen Zhongyi didn’t like staying cooped up at home, and Meng Chuan wasn’t comfortable letting him go out alone. For this, Meng Chuan canceled two meetings and cleared a whole morning to accompany him. The car cruised steadily onto the cross-sea bridge. The road was wide, with endless blue ocean on both sides. The sky was a pale blue, scattered with a few white clouds. An old love song played in the car, slow and…

- One dish after another was brought to the table. Wen Zhongyi nodded politely to the waiter in thanks. Meng Chuan glanced at the spread and smirked. “You like chestnut pastries?” Wen Zhongyi had only ordered one serving of everything else, but two of the chestnut pastries. He nodded slightly and reached out to take a piece. “The ones here are pretty famous, though they’re a bit sweet.” Meng Chuan watched him take a small bite and asked, “Good?” Wen Zhongyi chewed slowly. His…

- Meng Chuan didn’t hand the evidence over to the police immediately. As he had said—he wouldn’t let Jiang Ming get off easy. In early April, multiple media outlets simultaneously released negative reports about Jiang Ming. Numerous men and women who had been coerced into relationships with him stepped forward, publicly denouncing Jiang Ming as a complete scumbag in a suit. The news rapidly went viral online. Netizens quickly joined the outcry. Zhaobo Technologies was pushed into the…

- Meng Chuan stayed in the hospital for nearly a week. Including the time spent in the ICU, it had been more than half a month altogether. During that time, many people came to visit him. The bedside table was overflowing with flowers and fruit baskets. One day, Wen Zhongyi tried to sneak a lychee from a fruit basket when Meng Chuan wasn’t looking—only to be caught. Meng Chuan immediately called Zhou Lu over and had the basket taken away. He only left a small handful behind. “Too many…

- Zhou Lu finished her call, then turned to them and said, “The matter with the car accident is almost dealt with. The driver woke up yesterday and has already told the police everything about being hired by someone.” But the driver had only taken the money to do a job. He didn’t know who gave him the money, nor who the person he was following was. Jiang Ming had been extremely cautious. The payment was made in cash, and the person who showed up at the driver’s house had been completely wrapped…

- Wen Zhongyi cried on Meng Chuan’s shoulder for a long time. As if he wanted to cry out every last tear, to release all his emotions. Meng Chuan raised his unbandaged hand and gently stroked Wen Zhongyi’s back, tracing his spine slowly, again and again. He was comforting Wen Zhongyi, and also restraining himself. Only after Wen Zhongyi had let everything out and cried himself tired did Meng Chuan pat his waist and rasp, “No more crying. Sit down and let’s talk.” Wen Zhongyi’s…
