Almost immediately, Jiang Ruo guessed that Zhang Shaoyuan was behind it. Unable to speak openly about it, he could only express his confusion about this "sudden misfortune," hoping the production team would provide a legitimate reason. As an important figure overseeing all the work in the production crew, Zhao Sen had mastered the skill of treating people differently based on their status. He glanced at Jiang Ruo with a mocking attitude. "Are you a proper person yourself, asking me for a legitimate…- 178.8 K • Completed
- It was a sunny day. This year, Feng City's winter had been unusually long. More than half a month after the Spring Festival, temperatures still hovered around single digits. The sun was a rare sight, and the air remained damp and chilly. After leaving Jin Garden, driver Old Liu was already waiting by the car. Xi Yufeng got in and instructed him to head for his home in the southern part of the city. On the way, Xi Wangchen called, but Xi Yufeng didn't answer. The phone rang again immediately…

- Once they entered the Jin Garden, standing at the elevator entrance, Jiang Ruo was still dazed. The makeup artist, Lin Xiao, who had come down personally to meet him, nudged him with her elbow. "Hey, look over there." Jiang Ruo mechanically turned his head to look. In the direction of the VIP elevator, the gigolo led the girls in front, while Xi Yufeng followed behind. He was still wearing a white shirt and suit pants, with a coat draped over his arm, his hands in his pockets. He still looked…

- When he returned to the rental house, it was precisely two o'clock in the morning. A sliver of light leaked from the crack under the door on the left. Jiang Ruo knocked twice before gently pushing it open, revealing An He struggling to sit up. Hastily stepping forward to press his shoulders, Jiang Ruo helped him lie back down again. From the inner pocket of his suit, he retrieved a neatly folded stack of cash. "Are you at ease now?" An He weakly shook his head. "I was worried about you." "What…

- The biting cold of early spring in February filled the streets of Feng City, where leafless trees stood bare and people dragged their feet back to work after the Spring Festival with lethargic postures. In the evening, on the outskirts at the film base, Jiang Ruo collected his crew lunch box and found a less crowded spot against a wall. He didn't care whether the shredded potato was too salty or bland, or if there were eggs in the egg flower soup. With a snap, he broke open the disposable chopsticks and…

When Meng Chuan pushed the door open, the call on Wen Zhongyi’s phone hadn’t ended yet. With his long legs, he stepped around the tables and chairs, walked straight to Wen Zhongyi’s side, locked eyes with him first, then cast a blank glance at Jiang Ye sitting across the table. Jiang Ye set down his chopsticks and looked at him with a faint, amused smile. Meng Chuan found his face familiar at first glance but couldn’t recall where he’d seen him, so he ignored him and looked down at Wen…- 144.9 K • Completed
“Just so you know, this marriage has nothing to do with my own will.” That, I remembered. Baek Mugyeong had said the same thing during our honeymoon. Since it was a political marriage neither of us wanted, he had drawn a line: let’s not interfere in each other’s lives. And throughout our married life, he had stuck to those words. “I feel the same way.” I gave the same reply I had back then, only this time, I truly meant it. Living like business partners, as expected from a…- 281.3 K • Completed
- Chapter 43 – Loyalty and Righteousness The Inner Prison was dark as night—cold and damp. A thread of wind slipped in through a narrow window, lashing like a whip and stinging the skin. A jailer approached, carrying a wooden tray holding a bowl of coarse rice and a bowl of vegetable broth. He didn’t place the bowls into the turn-slot, but instead cast a glance at the young man chained to the wall, gave a cold snort, and said, “Time to eat.” That young man, lashed until his skin was…

“No, I can’t… But how else am I supposed to get him to take the fever reducer… Still…” Dojin’s thoughts grew louder and more chaotic. He tried to come up with a better solution, but his frozen mind gave up. “Ha… this is insane…” He murmured under his breath, closing and opening his eyes. It’s just a medical procedure, he told himself again and again, trying to justify what he was about to do. Dojin opened a new bottle of fever medicine and brought it to his own…- 289.6 K • Completed
Lian Ai wore a sheer robe that barely concealed anything. Once he was ready, he went to knock on Bu Nian’s door. Bu Nian assumed it was the inn servant coming to collect the bathwater. Without asking who it was, he opened the door. The moment he saw Lian Ai standing there, he nearly thought he was seeing things. “What are you doing?” He stood in the doorway, blocking it like a mountain, neither stepping aside nor letting him in. It was late autumn, and the cold had begun to creep in. Lian…- 157.9 K • Completed
