CHAPTERS
The two of them fell into a sudden and inexplicable cold war. Neither spoke to the other, like two children sulking over something petty. More than once, Chen Ang caught himself absentmindedly opening the WeChat chat window with Xu Heng, only to find himself unable to type a single word. Occasionally, he would catch the status above the text box saying "Typing…" but after waiting a while, nothing ever came through. The weather was getting colder. The year was coming to an end. Soon, it would be…- 62.6 K • Completed
- Chen Ang had started to sense that something wasn’t right. When they were together, Xu Heng would occasionally zone out, frowning slightly with a blank look in his eyes, as if his mind had drifted somewhere far away. Whenever that happened, Chen Ang would try everything he could to pull his attention back. He felt like a traveler wandering through a desert, finally finding a water source, only to watch the water slip through his fingers, slowly but surely. He had finally made the decision to set off…

- Chen Ang was bisexual, but he said it in a way that felt like he was just throwing in the towel. In that split second, he had already pictured what might happen next. Lu Yiran might look completely shocked, then all the fragile peace they had been maintaining would shatter. What followed would be endless arguments. She might even talk about him at work. But anything was better than the current struggle. It was like pulling the pin on a ticking time bomb before it exploded on its own. All he would have…

- Chen Ang had work the next day. He had to get up early, go home to change clothes, and head to the office. When he woke up, Xu Heng was still curled up naked under the blanket, sleeping soundly with his brow slightly furrowed, like something was bothering him even in his dreams. Chen Ang bent down to kiss the space between Xu Heng’s eyebrows while picking up the shirt he had tossed on the floor beside the bed. Xu Heng didn’t wake up. His frown softened, and he shrank deeper into the…

- A cold snap had hit without warning. Outside the car, everyone was bundled up in thick coats, walking quickly through the chill. But inside the taxi, it was warm. The driver uncle seemed to be rushing to finish his shift and drove at full speed. The soft voice of a female radio host floated through the speakers. Xu Heng had the lower half of his face tucked into his scarf, his breath warming the fabric around him. He turned his head slightly to glance at Chen Ang, who was sitting beside him. There was…

- Chen Ang had settled into his new department. The commute was even more congested than before. The route was always packed, and sometimes he couldn’t even find a shared bike. He often clocked in just seconds before being marked late. A new environment always brought a certain amount of anxiety, but Chen Ang handled it with ease. On his first day, he brought back some chocolates he had picked up during an overseas trip. He handed them out to each desk in the office as a small gesture of goodwill. It…

- Xu Heng turned to Chen Ang, momentarily stunned. He had thought about it before, how nice it would be to fall in love for real. There had been moments when his heart stirred because of Chen Ang, but he never truly believed it could happen. The idea of actually being with him had always felt a little too unrealistic. In that brief moment, the sun had already risen from the sea, now hovering just above the horizon. Pale morning light poured into the car. Chen Ang squinted slightly, the shadows from his…

- In the end, Xu Heng got into Chen Ang’s car. He didn’t have a better option. He sat in the passenger seat, fastened his seatbelt, and remained completely silent. His eyes and nose were still slightly red as he stared blankly out the window. Seeing that his mood was low, Chen Ang stopped at a gas station before getting on the highway to fill up the tank. He asked, “Want something to eat? You might get hungry later.” Xu Heng shook his head. “I’ve already eaten. I’m not hungry.” Chen…

- The next day was Sunday. Chen Ang was woken up by the noise of the flower delivery. He had started ordering flowers from the neighborhood shop some time ago, one bouquet a week delivered to his door. Originally, he had asked for hydrangeas, but the shop owner told him they were out of season and instead sent arrangements with whatever was in bloom. Each delivery came as a large bundle. Chen Ang never took proper care of them, nor did he have the patience. He would unwrap the flowers, stick them into a…

- Xu Heng was practically overwhelmed. He had to work during the day, and after grabbing a quick bite in the evening, he rushed off to his classes. By the time they ended, it was already nine. When he got home, there was still homework waiting. After tidying up, he’d collapse from sheer exhaustion. Zhang Ting was very fond of him. Seeing that he had actually signed up for classes made her genuinely happy. She quickly recommended Xu Heng to the organizers in Japan who were running the training program.…
