Ke Mingxuan watched as Bian Yiqiu’s figure grew more distant, knowing that his refusal to compromise would lead to something waiting for Bian Yiqiu in court. The police car made a turn and paused briefly in a blind spot of the parking lot’s surveillance cameras. Moments later, Ke Mingxuan stepped out from the shadows, put on his sunglasses, and calmly walked away. He got into the car already waiting by the side of the road and headed toward the He Sheng Building. After hesitating for a moment, he…- 208.3 K • Completed
- In early summer, Z City experienced a lot of rain. After several days of strong winds and heavy showers, the entire city was soaked, with the air thick with damp moisture. The gloomy, overcast sky weighed heavily on the mood, making everything feel uncomfortable and oppressive. In the old northern district, where several buildings were slated for demolition, there were hardly any people left. Those who were supposed to move had already done so, and the few who hadn’t likely wouldn’t be wandering…

- Pei Siyuan was incredibly efficient. Before the end of the workday, he had already reached out to Ye Zhen to discuss the matter of mutual shareholding. At first, Ye Zhen refused. She knew that if Bian Yiqiu were present, he would never agree to such a decision. Although Bian Yiqiu currently held no shares in the company and held no official position, everyone tacitly acknowledged him as the actual decision-maker. Naturally, such a significant matter would need to align with his stance. Pei Siyuan…

- Director Yu, the one who called Qian Ying out, was the officer in charge of the detention center’s operations. By regulation, suspects under detention for investigation were not allowed to meet anyone other than their lawyer. The rules were even stricter in Bian Yiqiu’s case. He couldn’t even meet with a lawyer. Yet, Director Yu informed Qian Ying that someone wanted to see him. He asked who it was, but Director Yu didn’t say. He simply led him outside. As soon as they exited the…

- Ke Mingxuan was driving aimlessly through the streets, with no destination in mind, unsure of where to go or what he should be doing, or even what he could do. His mind was blank, and over and over again, he kept hearing Commander Ke’s words. “Only if you agree, Bian Yiqiu can live.” It felt as if every path had been blocked. He had no choice but to walk down this one. If he agreed, Bian Yiqiu would live; if he didn’t, Bian Yiqiu would die. Commander Ke had said that to get him back on the…

- Ke Mingxuan pushed the car to its highest speed, racing towards the city. His phone had long been taken by Commander Ke, so there was no way to contact anyone in advance. As soon as he got onto Linghai Avenue, he ran into the evening rush hour, and it took over an hour just to reach Junlin Tianxia. During the two-minute wait for the elevator, he could hardly stand it, wishing he could grow wings and fly up. Finally, he made it home, entered the password, and opened the door. The moment he stepped…

The afternoon trek began promptly at two o'clock. This mountain was known as Bai Shi Shan, named after its white stones that resembled jade. The elevation wasn't particularly high, with a three-hour hike to the summit. The path was lined with stone steps, making it relatively flat. Trees dotted the landscape, even in winter, providing a lush green backdrop, making it an ideal winter destination. As they stepped onto the stone steps, Li Tang popped a candy into his mouth, relishing it slowly, licking…- 197.1 K • Completed
- After hearing what Jiang Lou said, Li Tang’s mind exploded with thoughts. As a self-proclaimed gay man since junior high, Li Tang wasn’t unfamiliar with such matters. However, even when they shared a room and a bed, Jiang Lou remained calm, leading Li Tang to believe that Jiang Lou was not entirely gay and still had reservations about being with another man. Although he didn’t resist their kisses, even displaying urgency and intensity… this matter was different from mere lip-locking. They would…

- Li Tang was unperturbed. "Your victory is your own, but how could I lose… I'm not even participating in a boxing match." Jiang Lou added a condition. "If we were on the same stage, competing in the same match." Li Tang pondered it over. "Then I'd avoid it, not compete against you in the same match." "What if you couldn't avoid it?" "There's always a way to avoid it, feign illness and withdraw from the competition or something." Jiang Lou let out a snorting laugh, seemingly at a loss for…

- Jiang Lou took his seat just as the announcer on stage introduced the next performance—a dance piece titled "Song of the Lark," choreographed by Su Qinhan from Class 2, Grade 2, with music played by Li Tang from Class 1, Grade 2. As the curtain lifted, blinding lights illuminated the stage. Jiang Lou saw Li Tang seated at a piano on the side of the stage, dressed in an elegant tuxedo, his back straight, long slender fingers touching the black and white keys. With each gentle press, beautiful music…
