XR CH56

by DewdropTL — Chapter 56: N. Tacit Argument Hearing this word, Su Hui was stunned for a moment, and his earlobes quickly turned red. He began to regret asking such a stupid question. Ning Yixiao was clearly joking with him, and he had actually believed it—it made him look very foolish and lacking in boundaries. Even if someone really was introducing a partner to Ning Yixiao, what did that have to do with him? Ning Yixiao did not continue the topic, as if neither of them had just crossed a line. They stepped…

XR CH41

by DewdropTL — Chapter 41: N. Appropriate Coaxing After leaving the cocktail party, Ning Yixiao got into the car and gave the drunk Jing Ming a ride. The temperature inside the car was quite high, and as soon as he got in, he felt a bit dizzy, so he cracked open a window. "Hey, by the way, didn't you say that your 'someone at home' is still in a depressive phase?" Jing Ming was slurring his words, a mix of English and Chinese. "Can you really leave him alone at home? Should I have Kefi and Mark go back?" Ning…

XR CH57

by DewdropTL — Chapter 57: N. Gentle Probing When being kissed by Ning Yixiao, Su Hui thought of what he had said about life in New York, and the lack of boundaries regarding lust and the chaotic social networks in the art world. He inexplicably thought of a sculptor he had met at an exhibition who believed in Dadaism—a white male who was dating two people at the same time, one of whom was even a man; the three of them maintained a healthy social relationship. Su Hui had been puzzled at the time, very much…

XR CH42

by DewdropTL — Chapter 42: P. First Gift Summer is as brief as a burning old shirt. Humidity, sweat, mugginess, and scents are all cast into the flames; while immersed in them, one is simply addicted to the raging fire, feeling that everything is about to disappear, yet feeling a sense of loss for the passing of old things. For Su Hui, the summer he spent having Ning Yixiao was perhaps the one he cherished most in his life, now burned away. He was used to being treated as an unspeakable patient. Even when he…

XR CH58

by DewdropTL — Chapter 58: N. Outdoor Movie Carl felt his boss had been very strange lately. As the person who valued efficiency above all else, could not accept work being done outside the schedule, and possessed an extreme aversion to unexpected situations, Ning Yixiao had actually asked three times if his roadshow schedule could be changed. When Carl gave a negative answer for the third time, Ning Yixiao provided a hotel address in Los Angeles and told him to have the magazine move the interview there. The…

XR CH43

by DewdropTL — Chapter 43: P. Without Reservation After such a sweet night, Su Hui slept for less than two hours, dominated by the excitement brought on by his hypomania. Usually, he found it difficult to stay in one room; even in the middle of the night, he would run to the garden or leave the house to walk the streets until dawn just to burn off energy. But with Ning Yixiao here, Su Hui found he could accept staying in one room. Ning Yixiao was very accustomed to hugging him from behind, his arm…

XR CH59

by DewdropTL — Chapter 59: N. The Struggle of Love and Desire Su Hui didn't know how to describe this moment. It seemed like nothing this wonderful had happened in his life for a long time. Ever since he parted ways with Ning Yixiao, everything had been a dull, lackluster gray. But with Ning Yixiao’s reappearance, he had been given an ethereal, dreamlike night. "Thank you." Su Hui kept his head slightly lowered, his earrings swaying gently. He looked up, giving Ning Yixiao a moist, lingering gaze. "Should I…

XR CH44

by DewdropTL — Chapter 44: P. Fellow Outcasts Entering Su Hui’s room for the second time, Ning Yixiao’s role shifted from a comforter to a visitor. Su Hui’s state was much better than last time, which slightly eased the anxiety and restlessness in Ning Yixiao’s heart. Yet, because of the shift in perspective, he could now deeply and intuitively appreciate how beautiful the room was—something he had been too distracted to notice before. Su Hui found an exquisite photo album and opened it for Ning…

XR CH45

by DewdropTL — Chapter 45: P. Fleeing in Panic Autumn arrived more unexpectedly than imagined; a blast of cold wind brought by a cold front extinguished the lingering warmth of summer. Ginkgo leaves began to turn yellow, signaling Beijing's entry into a long autumn. Ning Yixiao couldn't describe the feeling; it was as if he had lived through a summer movie. Even though the curtain had already fallen, the movie’s dialogue still lingered on the black screen. Every day spent with Su Hui was too short. He knew…

XR CH46

by DewdropTL — Chapter 46 | P. To-Do List When Ning Yixiao said the word "home," Su Hui thought that his heart had been completely captured, without a single trace of room left for anyone else. The world would not stand still, but at least in this moment, no one understood him better than Ning Yixiao. He followed Ning Yixiao back to that rented room. Three months ago, this place had been nothing more than somewhere to stay for a night, a refuge from a lonely, unbearable evening. But now, this small room was what…
