      IRHT CH4 Cover
      by DewdropTL — "I do mind," Lin Congzhi said. Of course he minded—he minded to death. Because he couldn't remember where he had left the painting's description card last night. There was a good chance it was still on the windowsill by the terrace door, or maybe he had carried it back to the bedroom and left it on the nightstand—worst of all, he had a hazy memory, unsure if it was a dream or reality, of lying under the covers rubbing the card between his fingers. Which meant it was extremely likely to be…

      IRHT CH5 Cover
      by DewdropTL — Five years ago, when Lin Congzhi was preparing for his graduation exhibition, Xiao Jingwen often hovered around him under the guise of official business. The Academy of Fine Arts was quite large. If Xiao Jingwen wanted to buy paintings or artwork, he should have gone to the gallery to find the professors there. Yet every single time, he insisted on taking a long detour just to drop by Lin Congzhi's oil painting studio first. The oil painting students' studio was cramped beyond belief. To make matters…

      by DewdropTL — Lin Congzhi had never spoken to anyone about these things before. All along, it wasn't that he was intentionally bottling them up inside; he just couldn't be bothered to talk. He hadn't expected that after airing it all out, he would actually feel a sense of relief. During those years on the cruise ship, he had honestly lived quite happily. The ocean was so vast, and the people on board were diverse and varied. Lin Congzhi didn't care for socializing, but hearing groups of people nearby laughing…

      IRHT CH7

      IRHT CH7 Cover
      by DewdropTL — At that moment, that bizarre desire to conquer surged within him once more. For a split second, Lin Congzhi even caught himself thinking, I really don’t believe I can’t coax you into bed, a thought that startled even himself. The night breeze was still blowing. On the dock, a patroller holding a flashlight wandered about, humming a song. Out on the sea, it was pitch-black; a beam of light shone across, only to be swallowed by the boundless darkness. The moon in the sky was just a thin sliver.…

      IRHT CH8

      IRHT CH8 Cover
      by DewdropTL — Lin Congzhi was truly furious. In his eyes, Yu Shijing was genuine fine arts academy material, yet after taking just three days of sick leave plus a weekend away, this kid had somehow caught a fever for chasing "grand master" styles out of nowhere. He walked downstairs in a huff, pressing the elevator button with far more force than necessary. The coffee shop was right downstairs next to the convenience store. Most buildings in this area were office blocks, crowded with companies that couldn't afford…

      IRHT CH9 Cover
      by DewdropTL — "Cough..." Lin Congzhi was suffocated by the sweetness. "Cough, cough, cough, cough..." In that brief moment when their eyes met, Xiao Jingwen had imagined countless possibilities. He thought Lin Congzhi might feel embarrassed or pretend to stay calm, but he never expected him to be choked by the intense sweetness and start coughing. He hurriedly stood up, walked over, and patted his back: "Hold on a second, I'll go to the counter and get a glass of water." After chugging down several mouthfuls of…

      IRHT CH10 Cover
      by DewdropTL — To be completely honest, Lin Congzhi felt utterly embarrassed, but he had no choice. Without a prior reservation, if he wanted to find a temperature- and humidity-controlled warehouse in the vast city of Yu City that could send people over immediately to help him move his paintings, Xiao Jingwen was the only person he could turn to. Faced with a predicament, Lin Congzhi couldn't possibly let a room full of oil paintings suffer just to preserve a shred of meaningless pride. About two hours later,…

      IRHT CH11

      IRHT CH11 Cover
      by DewdropTL — The next morning, when Zhang Miao and Xiao Chen arrived at the gallery, they nearly called the police. How could the place have been picked clean after being away for just three days? Then, the owner of the coffee shop next door chimed in, mentioning it looked like underworld debt collectors had come and swept everything away. Zhang Miao was stunned. Lin Congzhi was equally stunned. He had just walked out holding a cup of water, intending to dry a freshly primed canvas in the sun, only to overhear…

      IRHT CH12

      IRHT CH12 Cover
      by DewdropTL — They were like two asteroids colliding in deep space—a scene entirely devoid of sound. Silent and imperceptible, known to no one and noticed by none, save for each other. Yang Qingzhi finally withdrew her gaze completely, pausing for a moment before asking, "Say, Miss Zhang, are Teacher Lin and President Xiao on very close terms?" Zhang Miao smiled smoothly: "They're on good enough terms. After all, wasn't your initial interest in visiting our gallery precisely because we're featured in Gleam's…
