A wedding reception typically involves a set routine — the exchange of rings between the bride and groom, speeches from both sets of parents, and the playing of a sentimental video clip. Director Liu had prepared a short film centered around Zhou Xinyao, pieced together from various scenes. There were clips of her walking down the red carpet, eating ice cream, squatting outside a church feeding pigeons, dozing on a folding chair on set, and even footage of her covering her face in tears when she was…- 178.8 K • Completed
The on-site inspection was scheduled for Wednesday. On Tuesday afternoon, Li Tang's right eyelid twitched uncontrollably, jumping whether his eyes were open or closed, even when he pressed his hand against it. Seeing this, Li Zichu worriedly said, "It seems like you're having bad luck these past few days. You really have to be careful." While expressing concern, Li Zichu kept a safe distance from Li Tang, refusing to even share an elevator with him. "You go down first. I'll take the next one,"…- 197.1 K • Completed
The same pair of eyes—unchanged in color, shape, and every minute detail—yet they became entirely different once infused with that spark of life. Whether in the tales passed down across the continent or the songs of the bards in the Magic World, the eyes—they are as important as the soul.

This was the kind of possessive madness he was dealing with. "Achoo, achoo—ugh, damn it, this is such a scam!" The water pipe that Caesar had kicked burst…- 221.3 K • Completed
The next morning, Lin Ze slept until almost noon before waking up. Zheng Jie had already left, leaving cold breakfast on the table. Last night, Lin Ze had slept on the floor outside, hugging that huge, moldable soft sofa, sleeping with his butt sticking up all night. When he woke up, his whole body ached. The night before, he and Zheng Jie had finished an entire bottle of Hennessy XO, and the empty bottle was still lying nearby. Waking up with a hangover, his head was dizzy, his vision blurry, and…- 171.2 K • Completed
It had been nearly half a year since Lian Ai last returned to Zhongzhou. The moment he stepped into the Helian estate, Lady Helian summoned him over and scolded him at length, saying he only cared about playing around and how he could possibly stay away from home for so long. “It’s my fault. I’ve made mother worry,” Lian Ai said, looking at Lady Helian’s ever-gentle face. The past few months suddenly felt like a fleeting dream. Lady Helian gently stroked his cheek. “You look thinner than…- 157.9 K • Completed
In the following week, without any part-time job, Jiang Zhihuo stopped skipping evening self-study sessions. After class, he joined a few members of the relay team to run laps and train together. Yan Mu, as usual, didn't allow anyone to touch him. Being a top student, he was used to being aloof. If he ever became enthusiastic one day, something would definitely be wrong with his head. The others didn't pay it much attention; after all, the lack of physical contact didn't affect training. Jiang Zhihuo…- 369.8 K • Completed

But Xiang Lei didn't know whether it was because Zhang Haiqiang didn't want to…- 195.9 K • Completed
- Lin Wei had been very careless with his mental energy lately, which was rare. He had even abandoned his habit of condensing his mental energy into fine threads, instead spreading a thin layer of it around him. Of course, there was a good reason for this. Lin Wei propped his chin on his right hand as he observed Duan Yu across from him, occasionally using his mental energy to sense him, and other times focusing intently on his face—Duan Yu was currently in a deep state of meditation, with…
