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 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 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 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 CH22

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

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

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…

IRHT CH2

by DewdropTL — The lot selection process was public. Gleam Auction House would invite famous masters and experts from various fields to participate in the lot voting for every season, ensuring the high quality of auction items in this phase. Furthermore, in an era where anything could be used as a promotional gimmick, some felt that simply being chosen as an auction lot by Gleam was an affirmation in itself—regardless of the final transaction price—acting as a golden stamp on one's portfolio. After Lin Congzhi…

IRHT CH19

by DewdropTL — He couldn’t answer. At least, not at this very moment. A question like this could fuel an entire dissertation—how was he supposed to sum it up in just a few words? Lin Congzhi swallowed. In the mirror, he didn't even dare let his Adam's apple move too noticeably. Fortunately, he did his best to compose himself. He knew Xiao Jingwen fairly well: normally remarkably even-tempered, but prone to intermittent bursts of chaotic intensity. And those chaotic moments almost always revolved around Lin…

IRHT CH18

by DewdropTL — On the day of Gleam's summer auction, an extraordinarily heavy rainstorm hit Yuchen. The stairs leading into the subway station turned into waterfalls, and flood-relief supplies were piled high in parking lots. Under the torrential rain, the docks were entirely deserted, leaving only dark corrugated metal cargo containers to be pelted by the downpour with a relentless pitter-patter. The meteorological bureau issued a red alert for severe rainstorms today. On the roads, buses plowed forward as if…
