      IRHT CH29

      IRHT CH29 Cover
      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 CH28

      IRHT CH28 Cover
      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 CH27

      IRHT CH27 Cover
      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 CH26

      IRHT CH26 Cover
      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 CH25

      IRHT CH25 Cover
      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 CH24

      IRHT CH24 Cover
      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 CH23

      IRHT CH23 Cover
      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 CH22

      IRHT CH22 Cover
      by DewdropTL — Lin Congzhi spent six days packing his luggage. Before leaving, he went over gallery business with Zhang Miao and assigned some tasks to Xiao Chen. At eight o'clock in the evening, he took the high-speed rail with Lin Lingyu to another city to catch their flight. Years ago, when Lin Lingyu was dating her girlfriend, he had accidentally stumbled upon them once. Lin Lingyu had tried to avoid being seen, but it was an unexpected moment. At that time, Lin Congzhi was fifteen or sixteen—confused and…

      IRHT CH21

      IRHT CH21 Cover
      by DewdropTL — A piece of laver floated in the wonton soup. Lin Congzhi scooped it up with a spoon and took a sip along with the broth. He didn't express an opinion. Xiao Jingwen’s sickly possessiveness always came under such reasonable pretexts. Lin Congzhi was a fairly lazy person, so he didn't mind having someone keep his life perfectly organized. The two of them had never argued over this kind of matter. With nothing left to say, Xiao Jingwen had no reason to linger. He stood up from the sofa, preparing to…

      IRHT CH20

      IRHT CH20 Cover
      by DewdropTL — In this regard, Lin Congzhi had to admit defeat—Xiao Jingwen simply didn't treat money as money. To him, earning it was all about enjoying the process. He had low material desires, cared little for fame or status, and showed no interest in lust. Even a heirloom-grade treasure that others held in high esteem barely warranted a second glance from him. "Mr. Lin," the secretary said, walking back over after hanging up the phone. "I'm very sorry, but Mr. Xiao is currently dealing with a dispute and likely…
