IRHT CH23

by DewdropTL — The transparent cocktail glass had been chilled, its surface coated with a layer of frosted condensation that delivered a sharp cold bite the moment it pressed against his lips. Yet as the cocktail flowed into his mouth, Xiao Jingwen’s hand remained exceptionally steady—even while Lin Congzhi was still running his fingers over the Roger Dubuis timepiece on his wrist. For the second drink: vodka, crushed ice, lime juice, a splash of plum wine, garnished with a lemon wheel. Xiao Jingwen brought it…

IRHT CH24

by DewdropTL — He really was easy to fool nowadays. Leaving such a massive company behind to travel thousands of miles to Spain, buying ice cream one moment and mixing cocktails the next—it wasn't that Lin Congzhi had tricked him into coming; he had been fooling himself the entire time. Lin Congzhi was a slow eater, a habit formed back home. Xiao Jingwen, on the other hand, ate quickly—also a habit formed back home. Watching Xiao Jingwen take one large bite after another, it wasn't the ravenous, wolfing-down…

IRHT CH25

by DewdropTL — Because Lin Congzhi was covering Xiao Jingwen’s mouth, he could feel Xiao Jingwen laughing against his palm. He continued to warn him: "Don't laugh. Hold it in." Xiao Jingwen nodded subtly, looking at his eyes with an earnest expression to show his obedience. Only then did Lin Congzhi lower his hand, not forgetting to glance discreetly to the left and right. Seeing that the museum visitors hadn't cast any strange looks their way, he finally felt relieved. Turning back to look at the painting,…

IRHT CH26

by DewdropTL — Bang! Out on the plaza, a child’s balloon popped, startling a flock of pigeons into the air. The words Xiao Jingwen spoke were like a dried flower crushed into the wind—long withered, stripped of all weight. Even at this very moment, messages continued to flood Xiao Jingwen’s phone incessantly, though he had silenced both the ringtone and vibration. For the first time in his career, he had put his company aside; it was the very first time in his life he had ever been "reckless." He raised…

IRHT CH27

by DewdropTL — Five years ago, Xiao Jingwen had been clutching a small bouquet of flowers. It had rained that afternoon, and the sky was scattered with stars. The night sky was crystal clear. Xiao Jingwen hadn't given any prior notice, simply waiting down here for him to come downstairs. In truth, he hadn't known back then whether Lin Congzhi was still in the studio; to be precise, that wasn't even the first time Xiao Jingwen had waited for him downstairs. He had waited a few times before, but had missed him…

IRHT CH28

by DewdropTL — Lin Lingyu and Hannah owned a small, detached two-story house in Seville. It was not particularly large, but in prime European real estate, it was more than enough for two people to live in. —However, hosting two entire families made it feel rather cramped! Lin Congzhi had to lift his wine glass high above his head, navigate past his maternal uncle—who sported a sizable beer belly—and Hannah’s uncle, whose waistline was equally formidable, step over the Corgi lounging on the floor, and push…

IRHT CH29

by DewdropTL — Lin Congzhi had given him many odd and quirky things in the past, and the pink leather belt was merely one of them. When it came down to it, he had simply wanted to play a trick on Xiao Jingwen back then. It was easy enough to keep a belt hidden anyway—all one had to do was leave their suit jacket on. Five years ago, when Xiao Jingwen wore that pink belt to work, he had wished he could practically glue his suit jacket shut; five years later, wearing the belt again, he practically wished the wind would…

IRHT CH30

by DewdropTL — It was not until Lin Congzhi felt that enough was enough that he decided he could not keep lingering there. When he went downstairs to check out, the front desk informed him that the room had been extended for another night, adding that if he was set on checking out, the processing fees might be fairly high. Realizing that Xiao Jingwen must have thought he might need some time to decompress and thus simply renewed the room for an extra night, Lin Congzhi felt a moment of wistful emotion before…

IRHT CH31

by DewdropTL — Naturally, he had not. People do grow and change, but certain parts of them remain fixed in place. Take Lin Congzhi, for instance—the moment he thought about how Xiao Jingwen had maintained his workout routine over the past five years, building a body of firm, beautiful muscle, his thoughts would spin wildly out of control. Or take Xiao Jingwen—despite his years in the business world, he still couldn't even speak coherently when facing his first love. Logically speaking, a CEO in his thirties…

IRHT CH16

by DewdropTL — The more Lin Congzhi slept, the more he felt himself sinking downward. He had many dreams—or rather, he couldn't tell which parts were dreams and which were reality. He dreamed that he had never actually stepped off the cruise ship, that he was still in his cabin, with draft sketches and a few pencils scattered across the floor. There had been a period when he painted at night and slept during the day. The cruise ship's restaurant offered 24-hour dining, but late at night, it served mostly alcohol;…
