CHAPTERS
Gu Weiyang didn’t call out to announce he was back, worried that speaking suddenly might startle the omega chopping vegetables, and if he accidentally hurt his hand, that would be bad. He first changed into slippers and went upstairs, only coming back down after changing into more comfortable loungewear. Just then, Su Shijin had just finished chopping the chives and was putting them onto a plate. Gu Weiyang lightly tapped on the glass door. The omega inside visibly jumped in surprise, eyes…- 217.8 K • Completed
A little after seven in the morning, Su Shijin finished washing up and went downstairs, just as Gu Weiyang came back with breakfast. Seeing him drenched in sweat, Su Shijin knew he had gone for another morning run. Taking the breakfast from his hands, he casually asked, “Do you go for a run every morning?” “Mm, if the weather’s nice, I run outside. If not, I run at home,” Gu Weiyang replied. His well-defined muscles were all built up through real, hard work from his part-time jobs in the…- 217.8 K • Completed
After splashing his face with cold water, Su Shijin felt a little calmer. At least his face wouldn’t be flushed so noticeably. Just then, Gu Weiyang called out for him to bring the dishes. Su Shijin responded, and seeing Gu Weiyang’s natural expression, as if he hadn’t taken what happened earlier to heart, Su Shijin quietly breathed a sigh of relief. After dinner, Su Shijin set about tidying up the luggage he hadn’t had time to unpack last night. Aside from the newly prepared study, Gu…- 217.8 K • Completed
When Su Shijin got home, the place was brightly lit, and even before opening the door he could hear a jumble of noises from inside. Once he stepped in, he saw the first floor was a mess—footprints everywhere and piles of foam cartons stacked to the side. Several workers in worn gray uniforms came out from a room at the back of the first floor, each carrying a toolbox. The one in the lead called toward the kitchen, “Boss Gu, it’s all installed. Come take a look?” From the kitchen came Gu…- 217.8 K • Completed
The next morning, after freshening up, Su Shijin came downstairs and happened to run into Gu Weiyang, who had just returned from his morning jog. Gu Weiyang was carrying two bags of breakfast, looking as though he had stopped by the morning market on his way back. When he saw Su Shijin coming down, Gu Weiyang set the breakfast on the table and greeted him with a smile. “Morning.” Su Shijin gave a faint smile. “Morning.” Gu Weiyang brought a few plates and pairs of chopsticks from the…- 217.8 K • Completed
When Su Shijin woke up the next morning, half of the bed beside him was already empty. It wasn’t until he had gotten up and finished washing that he saw Gu Weiyang standing before him, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and athletic shorts, drenched in sweat. The alpha’s body was like a little furnace. He was just standing in front of Su Shijin, a wave of heat rolled over him, carrying a faint trace of pheromones that made Su Shijin instinctively take two steps back. But he was afraid that his…- 217.8 K • Completed
Only then did Gu Weiyang realize that Su Shijin had planned to sleep on the floor from the very start. No wonder he had agreed so quickly back then. His excitement was instantly doused as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, cooling him down at once. Gu Weiyang pressed his lips together and glanced at the empty shelf above the wardrobe. “Maybe it’s been in the closet for too long, and the person who cleaned the room took it away?” Su Shijin sighed. “Auntie wouldn’t dare touch…- 217.8 K • Completed
For dinner, just as Grandpa had mentioned in the morning, they had prepared hotpot. The small round table was filled with all kinds of ingredients for dipping. There’s two large plates of tripe and fatty beef rolls, Su Shijin’s favorites, laid over a thick bed of crushed ice. There was no shortage of duck intestines, lamb, and enoki mushrooms either. In the very center sat a divided pot—half beef tallow, half tomato broth. The base had been specially ordered by Grandpa from the kitchen, richer…- 217.8 K • Completed
Lunch was prepared by the kitchen according to Su Shijin’s tastes, at Grandpa’s request. It was a whole table full of delicious dishes. After lunch, Grandpa, who had the habit of taking a nap, didn’t bother asking the two youngsters to sit and have tea with him. He simply waved them off, telling them to go back to their rooms to rest, or wander around wherever they liked. Su Shijin then asked for Gu Weiyang’s opinion. “Mr. Gu, would you like to take a stroll nearby?” The butler,…- 217.8 K • Completed
At first, Su Shijin really didn’t realize his grandfather was mocking him, because he couldn’t even remember what he had mumbled on the phone that morning, half-asleep. All he recalled was saying “see you later” to his grandfather before hanging up. But the look in his grandfather’s eyes was dripping with sarcasm, and even if Su Shijin couldn’t remember, he knew he was being jabbed at. All he could do was take the hint and admit fault. “I worked late last night, so when I got your…- 217.8 K • Completed
