The first time Qin Yan visited Zhou Shurong’s room was after his death, to offer incense. The servant quickly opened the door but didn’t turn on the light. Instead, she told him to wait a moment, as she needed to get the incense and the lamp. “Lamp? Is there some special reason?” Qin Yan asked sincerely. “The light in the room is broken, and Mr. Zhou doesn’t want strangers to enter the eldest son’s room. It hasn’t been fixed yet,” the servant explained quickly, before hurrying…- 132.6 K • Completed
Chapter 40: Morning Star Reflects the Sun Just as he emerged from one dream, he quickly fell into another. In this dream, he was once again transported back nine years. A cool breeze blew through the reed mat wrapped around his dirty body, pricking him like needles. He felt someone lift the reed mat that wrapped him and, after an unknown time, he was roughly tossed into a pile of corpses. The stench hit him hard, and the buzzing of flies filled his ears. He heard voices—apparently soldiers…- 450.2 K • Completed
By the time the police arrived, Meng Chuan had already gotten up from the ground and hauled the half-conscious men into a line against the wall, ordering them to squat down with their hands over their heads. The officers paused in surprise at the sight, then chuckled. “Well, they’re pretty cooperative.” The police car stopped at the entrance of the alley, and the red and blue lights reflected off Wen Zhongyi’s face. Meng Chuan looked over and finally noticed how pale he looked. “You…- 144.9 K • Completed
Zhuang Lin wasn't far away, so he arrived quickly and easily found Guan Lan's car. That's because Guan Lan spotted him from inside the car and rolled down the window to greet him: "You're here too? What a coincidence." Coincidence, my ass. Didn't you call me here? Guan Lan was alone in the car—no robbers or criminals in sight. Zhuang Lin felt deceived. He suppressed his frustration: "If there's nothing else, Teacher Guan, I'll be heading back." Guan Lan stared at him, his eyes wide but…- 76.9 K • Completed
- "I don't understand you." Chen Jin had a dark green face mask smeared across his face, his legs spread apart, the hem of his bathrobe lifted, holding something that looked like a supermarket barcode scanner, swiping it back and forth on his calf. These past few days, Chen Jin had rapidly revealed his true self in front of Guan Lan, acting all campy in private. Guan Lan couldn't help but ask, "What on earth is that thing?" Chen Jin: "It's a pulsed light hair remover. Let me tell you, hair…

- The day after Guan Lan had dinner with Chen Jin, photos of them were taken by a passerby and uploaded online. Of course, it wasn't really a random passerby. If it had been an innocent bystander, they would have seen that there were four people at the table, with Guan Lan and Yang Peiqing being colleagues from the same company. Four men having a meal together would naturally be seen as a friendly gathering. But this "passerby" had a peculiar perspective—their photos only captured Guan Lan and Chen Jin,…

- Zhuang Lin was furious. He was angry at himself for being careless and easily falling into the enemy's trap. Yes, this entire situation was a complete setup! What should he do now? Could he back out? It hadn't even been half a month since the one-month deadline, and he had already lost the city gates. Although the enemy's firepower was too strong, his own combat ability was truly pathetic! Right now, he was hoping that Guan Lan would suddenly make some unreasonable demand for a quid pro…

- Zhuang Lin set an alarm specifically to watch Li Yanyao's show. Before Li Yanyao went to record the show, he'd tell Zhuang Lin eight times a day, "Brother, I'm going on a variety show, the super popular one recently, remember to watch it, you must, you must remember to watch it." But after the recording, he became as quiet as a chicken, never mentioning it again. Zhuang Lin knew he must have embarrassed himself on the show. Now he had to watch it—even if Guan Lan was in it, he'd endure it. This…

- Guan Lan ran into Li Yanyao backstage at the variety show. He wasn't particularly keen on running around to so many events either. However, he was under pressure to meet performance targets at the company, and he had nearly a hundred people under him who needed to make a living. His performance this year had been mediocre, so he had no choice but to take advantage of the recent buzz to earn some appearance fees, at least contributing to the company's revenue. It's just that there were always…

- After the commotion late into the night, everyone had dispersed. Guan Lan had drunk a bit of alcohol and didn't feel like returning to the city, so he decided to stay at the villa. He had a personal rule: he needed to listen to five new songs every day. By "new songs," he meant songs he hadn't heard before—not necessarily newly released ones. As a result, he had an enormous collection of records. This was also a requirement of his job. Unfortunately, when he checked the records at the villa,…
