Since it was Ying Ming’s birthday, there was no way he could avoid drinking. Wang Yiqi had been called over by Kou Jing as well. When Shi Yi first saw him, he frowned a little but didn’t say anything. The whole band was there too, singing a few songs. Most of the regulars at the bar were from the same circle, people who came and went, all having some level of connection. But among them, Shi Yi didn’t know many. He stood off to the side with a drink in hand, watching as Ying Ming was…- 283.2 K • Completed
- The matter with Weisai was mainly explained by Ying Ming. Shi Yi spoke very little, only occasionally adding a few words on the side. He knew full well that his father was upset about him getting injured in a fight, and at a time like this, anything he said wouldn’t do him any good. Ying Ming told everything as it was, without hiding anything. He laid out the entire situation, including how Weisai’s lawyer had come knocking. Shi Yi’s father listened through to the end without responding…

- For the past few days, Shi Yi had been in the hospital, with Ying Ming and Haozi keeping him company most of the time. Kou Jing lasted only one day before nearly having his phone blown up with calls. Unable to take it any longer, he had to leave the next day. Ying Ming’s arm was now in a cast, and aside from going out to get his medication, he spent most of his time in Shi Yi’s hospital room. Shi Yi wasn’t much of a talker, so the three of them mostly passed the time playing cards or watching TV.…

- Ying Ming had heard before that sometimes, when people experience extreme shock, they can suffer from temporary voice loss. He knew this could happen. But he never thought it would happen to him. Especially since he didn’t even feel like he had reached that point. He coughed for a while, struggling to make his voice sound normal. The harder he tried, the worse it got. In the end, his voice came out like someone who had been crying for three days straight. Feeling a little awkward, he looked at…

- Ying Ming could not be bothered to think about how those people eventually left. He called an ambulance. Shi Yi remained conscious the whole time. When he realized that Ying Ming was about to call the police, he grabbed his phone. “Don’t call yet. I don’t want to make a big scene.” Ying Ming did not think this was something that could be kept under wraps, but he was in no mood to argue. The ambulance took nearly twenty minutes to arrive. By the time they helped Shi Yi onto the vehicle, he…

- Ying Ming laughed. He glanced at the man lying across the sofa and said, “I sleep on a single bed.” “A single bed? How single are we talking?” “If you lay on it alone, you’d feel cramped.” The difference in their builds wasn’t so much about height but overall physique. Standing side by side, the contrast wasn’t too obvious, but if Ying Ming stood behind Shi Yi, he could practically be hidden entirely. Shi Yi slowly sat up from the sofa, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Ying…

- When Shi Yi went to find his family, Weisai’s lawyer also sought out Ying Ming. He did not call ahead to set up a meeting and just showed up at Ying Ming’s house. When Ying Ming opened the door and saw the lawyer standing outside, he instinctively frowned. It was obvious the other party wanted to come in, but Ying Ming blocked the entrance. “If you want to talk, let’s go somewhere else. My home isn’t a place to entertain guests.” The lawyer did not say anything and simply followed him.…

- After having a bowl of noodles at Ying Ming’s place and turning down the offer to stay the night, Shi Yi left. He had an appointment the next morning, and leaving from Ying Ming’s place would not be convenient. Neither of them said a word of thanks, but as Shi Yi was about to go, he casually reminded Ying Ming to be careful. Leaning against the doorframe, Ying Ming chuckled. “Not like they’re gonna tear my house down.” “If they do, you won’t even have time to get angry.” In…

- Ying Ming frowned at Shi Yi’s words. “What did you find out this time?” “There are some things you don’t need to dig for. They’re obvious. But as for the details, let me finish this banquet first. I’ll fill you in after I get back.” Shi Yi smiled, though there wasn’t much warmth in it. His tone wasn’t exactly heavy either. “Once this Weisai business is done, we need to have a proper drink together.” Ying Ming raised an eyebrow. “You still dare to drink?” That comment…

- After saying those words, Shi Yi’s mind went completely blank for a while. The only sound in the car was the radio. Their gazes met, hazy and indistinct. Across from him, Ying Ming grinned. It wasn’t until Shi Yi suddenly snapped out of it and realized what he had just said that he felt a faint chill creeping up his back. Ying Ming sized him up for a long moment, then smiled and said, “Given your build and looks, I won’t return the compliment. Let’s just take it as flattery.” Shi Yi…
