On the flight back to the capital, Li Tang couldn't bear the eager, inquisitive gaze of Qi Sixian any longer and sighed, asking her, "Is there something you want to ask?" Sitting side by side on the return trip, Qi Sixian had been waiting for him to say that and couldn't wait to ask, "ROJA's President Jiang, isn't he… well, you know, related to you in some way?" Li Tang tried to stall by feigning ignorance, "Which one?" "You know, that one." "Oh, right, when we were studying together, there…- 197.1 K • Completed
- This couple were neighbors living nearby. Due to the bad weather and their laziness to buy groceries and cook, they came to the Tree House to make do with a simple meal. They didn’t order any troublesome dishes, just two cups of milk tea and a few plates of fried snacks. As the heir to the coffee shop, Zhou Dongze was well-versed in the process and quickly served the food. Perhaps due to hunger, the two of them devoured their food like a storm sweeping away clouds, leaving nothing behind. After the…

- After dinner, Yang Baichuan from the Research Department and Old Wu from the Risk Control Department had to return to ROJA for further inspection. Pei Hao invited everyone to visit their experimental base to see the progress on their medical robotics project. Li Tang declined, saying, "I won’t understand all these technical things; let them go and take a look." Qi Sixian raised her hand and said, "I want to see the robots." Li Tang glanced at her, and she immediately confessed, "Okay, okay, and…

- Three months ago, Jiang Lou had learned about Li Tang's return to the country. The information came from Pei Hao, who had a friend in the capital's financial circle. News of Li Tang taking over the investment company left behind by Li Yuanshan reached Xucheng swiftly. At the time, Pei Hao wore an expression that seemed to anticipate a show: "When he was abroad, it wasn't convenient for you to chase after him. Now that he's back, you have no excuses, do you?" Jiang Lou was coding at the moment. In…

- 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,"…

- The next morning, on his way to work, Li Tang received a call from his father, Li Yuanshan. Li Yuanshan first asked about Li Tang's recent life. Upon hearing that he was still staying at a hotel, he grumbled, "You have a perfectly good home, yet you insist on staying outside." He then inquired about the company's operations. Li Yuanshan expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "You've spent so much capital before even beginning to turn a profit. I wonder what kind of results you'll achieve." Over…

- Seven years later, autumn. The system’s built-in alarm went off, and within ten seconds, a slender, pale hand reached out from the bedside to jab at it with its index finger, precisely silencing the alarm. Immediately after, bare feet touched the ground as the figure moved towards the en-suite bathroom of the suite. Glancing at the disheveled reflection in the mirror, they bent down to turn on the faucet, beginning their morning routine. Five minutes later, emerging from the bathroom, the person…

- At one o'clock in the morning, Jiang Lou sprinted down the deserted streets. The prolonged "beep" sound after the call was disconnected echoed in his ears, stretched out infinitely slowly, transforming into a sharp ringing that assaulted him with overwhelming force, threatening to engulf him in the boundless darkness. Pressing hard on the left side of his ear to suppress the needle-like buzz, Jiang Lou ran while dialing Zhang Zhaoyue's number. She answered immediately upon dialing, perhaps not…

- Soon, the other classmates arrived one after another. First came Li Zichu, Huo Xichen, Zhou Dongze, and Su Qinhan, all following Jiang Lou and Li Tang. Li Zichu and Su Qinhan supported the almost limp Li Tang on either side, while Huo Xichen asked in confusion what had happened. Zhou Dongze had already pushed his way forward, ready to punch Jiang Lou in the face. Jiang Lou caught his wrist and sidestepped to avoid it. This wasn't the time for a fight. "You should take him to a quiet place…

- Fortunately, Jiang Lou's ribs were not broken. The next day, after going to the hospital for an X-ray, it was determined that he had a minor bone fracture that could be treated conservatively. The main treatment involved external fixation and pain management. Elastic chest bands and adhesive tapes were used for stabilization, and although epidural anesthesia was recommended, Jiang Lou found it troublesome and instead opted for pain medication before returning to school. When Li Tang noticed that…
