XR CH31

by DewdropTL — Chapter 31: N. The Puzzle Plan When he said this, Su Hui didn’t feel sad; he was just numb. He couldn’t control his speech, couldn’t control his emotions, and couldn’t even process feedback normally. He just stared at Ning Yixiao, his face devoid of expression. Strangely, upon hearing those words, Ning Yixiao actually furrowed his brow, and an emotion that looked very much like pain flickered in his eyes. Su Hui had no way of deciphering it, nor did he want to speculate on Ning…

XR CH32

by DewdropTL — Chapter 32: N. The Gilded Cage Ning Yixiao originally hadn’t wanted to intervene in Su Hui’s life with such heavy-handed tactics. He had attempted to provide help gently, or secretly supply what Su Hui needed, but the results were poor. Su Hui was more resistant and distant than he had imagined. However, after hearing that Liang Wen had been rejected, Ning Yixiao still couldn’t restrain his heart. Seeing Su Hui sink into the swamp of his depressive episode, seeing him collapse in a coma,…

XR CH33

by DewdropTL — Chapter 33: N. Companionship and Healing Jing Ming got off the elevator and returned to his car before Ning Yixiao finally answered the phone. "Where are you?" Jing Ming asked aggressively. Ning Yixiao’s voice sounded listless. "Hotel." "A hotel? You’re not living in your own house and you’re running off to stay at a hotel? Did you lose your mind?" Jing Ming started the car and left the apartment parking lot. "Did you let your ex-boyfriend move in?" "How did you know?" Ning Yixiao…

XR CH34

by DewdropTL — Chapter 34: N. Wandering Threads of Dreams Su Hui carefully read through Xue Gao's electronic identification. It had been issued a year ago, meaning the dog had become a certified therapy dog as soon as he reached adulthood—a full year of service to date. Xue Gao let out a soft whine, pushing his chest forward and nudging his nose under Su Hui’s palm, signaling for a pet. But Su Hui was already lost in thought. He stood up and went back upstairs—entering, for the first time, the room Kofi…

by DewdropTL — Chapter 35: N. The Untold Secret Seeing Sean’s email, Su Hui realized his invitation had been overly intrusive; since the person had chosen to remain anonymous, they clearly had no desire to reveal their identity. Sean’s email also served as a reminder that due to his grandmother’s illness, he had fallen behind on his projects, including the commission for Miss Jones’s engagement party. He understood what this piece meant to a woman about to enter into marriage, and he knew it could not…

XR CH20.2

by DewdropTL — Su Hui returned to Brooklyn from Manhattan, then took the subway back to the school. When he got out of the station, the snow had finally stopped. He was so exhausted that he could barely stand on the subway. He listened to the lecture in his headphones, bracing himself, and went to the teaching assistant’s workstation as usual. The office was empty, and Su Hui took out his manuscript paper to continue working. Not long after, Professor White made a phone call, interrupting Su Hui’s painful…

XR CH36

by DewdropTL — Chapter 36: N. The Unreserved Confession “Are you really not drunk?” Su Hui tried to wake him. “Ning Yixiao, wake up.” But he was truly incapacitated. He closed his eyes again, his head dropping until his nose brushed against the side of Su Hui’s neck, his hot breath lingering near his ear. Su Hui felt his legs go weak; unable to push him away, he could only turn his face. Fortunately, Kofi heard the commotion and came downstairs. Seeing Ning Yixiao in such a state, she rushed to help,…

XR CH21

by DewdropTL — Chapter 21: N. Confrontation In the morning, Ning Yixiao worked on his laptop in the back seat of the car, dividing his attention to listen to Carl’s work report. Most of it was content not worth his focus, better left to his subordinates, until Carl mentioned Su Hui. "I’ve found relevant information on him, including his current work address and his schedule for the last few days. Do you need me to report it?" Ning Yixiao’s typing paused, and he nodded. Through Carl’s…

by DewdropTL — Chapter 37: N. Alone Time Ning Yixiao had never intended to drink with Jing Ming. He hated the taste of alcohol, and even more so, he was unaccustomed to the feeling of having his body controlled by it. But as it happened, that afternoon, the person he had hired to look into news for him told him that Su Hui’s grandfather had died of a cerebral infarction, and his mother had passed away in a car accident. Both accidents occurred in the second year after the family moved to Shanghai—the…

XR CH22

by DewdropTL — Chapter 22: N. Time Passes, Things Change Ning Yixiao’s words carried a clear sense of aggression, leaving Su Hui feeling bewildered. He didn't understand why Ning Yixiao had appeared, why he felt the need to intervene, and certainly not why he had spoken that way. Seeing Liang Wen’s apologetic look and the way he tightened his grip on the paper bag, Su Hui didn't want him to feel guilty, so he said in a low voice, "It’s okay. I like it now. Give it to me." His tone was gentle and soft, just…
