Chapter 53 – The Second Bouquet of Flowers Shen Hechuan, I’m pursuing you. That one sentence hit with devastating force. Shen Hechuan’s heart felt like the fireworks across the river—brilliant, chaotic, and impossible to calm. Ever since they signed the contract, Shen Hechuan had always taken things slowly, afraid that being too forward might scare Qiao Le away. Even after finding out they were going to have babies, he hadn’t made any rash moves. When he first learned Qiao Le was…- 182.5 K • Completed
It was truly a relief. That I wasn’t just a substitute for his brother… The starting point didn’t matter anyway. What mattered was that he had taken an interest in me. That his kindness toward me wasn’t entirely because of his brother. Yes. Whether I seemed pitiful or reminded him of his brother didn’t matter. I didn’t need to care. My throat suddenly felt dry. The tension that had unknowingly gripped me began to dissipate. I lifted my empty glass and held it out to him. “One…- 172.3 K • Completed
- To be honest, Mr. Baek Sahyeon and I had no real relationship. We weren’t family, friends, or lovers; the only connection between us was a single, thin card. Once that was gone, there would be no reason to see each other anymore. That’s why I wanted to create another connection. I needed a reason to keep meeting him. The conclusion of that desire was debt. In that sense, this was closer to the true purpose of borrowing money than the deposit itself. “Be specific.” “So… I’m planning to…

- Thud! A strange sensation hit the back of my head. For a moment, I blinked blankly, then glanced downward. There was a piece of bread. Someone had thrown it at the back of my head. I pulled out one earphone and turned around. A familiar face came into view. The guy was grinning and waving at me. It was Kim Junho, the so-called delinquent, though in reality, he was just a thug who enjoyed playing hierarchy games. “Sorry. That jerk threw it for me, but I couldn’t catch it, huh?” He pointed…

- Thud! A dull sound rang out. The sound came at regular intervals, one after another. I quickly realized what it was. Footsteps. Approaching me. Soon, his polished shoes, free of even a speck of dust, casually entered my field of vision. For some reason, I thought they suited him perfectly. “Lift your head.” A commanding voice fell over my head, lost in idle thoughts. I obediently raised my head. As my gaze lifted, the view changed. What filled my new perspective was, “Take…

- “What a pathetic bastard…” The moment I thought of hyung, who squandered all that money and even resorted to drugs, curses naturally spilled out. Luxury, business ventures, stocks, bitcoin, gambling… the money hyung burned through amounted to hundreds of millions of won. And every bit of it was the inheritance our parents left behind. It was already four years ago. One winter day, my parents passed away together in a car accident on an icy road. They couldn’t avoid a concrete mixer truck…

- I wish I were dead. I wish someone would just kill me. It was a thought that crossed my mind at least once a day. To be precise, it was a thought that came up every time that human called hyung used me as a punching bag. That was the situation now. I wished he were dead. Hyung. My only family. The last blood relative I had in this world. This monster. Thud, thud, thud… Dull noises erupted in succession. The intensity and intervals were irregular. Each time hyung’s foot made contact with…

… As the character Yu Xiang gradually began to open up to Xia Qinglang in the drama, in real life, Xu Xishuang and Chi Siyuan also became more familiar with each other. Xu Xishuang had already started treating Chi Siyuan like his goofy little cousin. He found that Chi Siyuan was actually highly perceptive. Once you gave him a pointer, he’d remember it and apply it. On top of that, he was hardworking and dedicated, willing to put in the time to study the script, even going so far as to write a…- 248.3 K • Completed
- After wrapping up that scene, Chi Siyuan remained in the classroom to continue filming with the extras.

His curiosity only grew, and he began actively seeking out opportunities to interact with Yu Xiang and understand him on a deeper level.

- Maybe it was puppy instinct, but from the very first time he met Xu Xishuang, Chi Siyuan had a feeling that he wasn’t really as cold and distant as he seemed on the surface. That feeling was confirmed when he realized Xu Xishuang actually watched goofy meme videos too. Chi Siyuan became convinced that Xu Xishuang must be a very warm and kind person deep down. Something—or someone—must’ve hurt him badly in the past, which led him to build a cold shell around himself, pretending to be…
