CHAPTERS
As soon as those words were spoken, everyone froze for a moment. The reason Ke Mingxuan invited Bian Yiqiu was to make an even group of eight people with four cars. Since Bian Yiqiu was Ke Mingxuan’s friend and didn’t know anyone else, he’d naturally end up in the same car as him. But with Lin Jiayan cutting in like this, it was clear he was deliberately trying to stir things up a bit. Honestly, Bian Yiqiu didn’t care which car he rode in. Though Ke Mingxuan’s Hummer was unbeatable in terms…- 208.3 K • Completed
- Bian Yiqiu felt a sharp pain in the hand that had just slammed against the wall. The skin on the back of his hand had been scraped off in a large patch, blood dripping from the wound, looking pretty terrifying. His knuckles were likely dislocated, and his clenched fist couldn’t even unfold. Every movement sent a jolt of pain through his tendons and bones, making his heart tighten. It was probably true what they said about “the heart being connected to the fingers.” When he returned to the cell,…

- It had been a long time since Bian Yiqiu had been in a fight, and even longer since he had felt this good. There were no weapons in the detention center, so it was just bare-knuckle combat. Each punch he threw was packed with the kind of power that would leave a person unable to get back up. The sounds of shouting, screams, and the dull thuds of flesh meeting flesh mixed with the growing smell of blood, creating an overwhelming desire for violence. The anger that had been simmering inside for days turned…

- He didn’t call Lin Jiayan out on it. After laughing enough, they chatted about other things. Lin Jiayan mentioned he had to go because his mom was waiting for him to eat. Ke Mingxuan nodded. As Lin Jiayan was getting out of the car, he told him that he was getting married. Lin Jiayan paused for a moment with his hand on the car door, then grinned and laughed. “Well, that’s great news. Congratulations.” With that, he slammed the door shut and walked toward his own car. Ke Mingxuan smiled…

- 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…

- 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…
