Chapter 74: Coffee with Milk is Too Bitter Dou Manning was used to waking up at five in the morning to open his shop. Preparing 35 cups of coffee didn't take long. He meticulously followed the precise ratio of sugar and milk to craft the lattes. Once finished, he messaged Xiang Zhen, but Xiang Zhen didn't reply. The young couple hadn't woken up yet. With nothing else to do, Dou Manning pulled out a stack of blank stickers. The coffee cups Zhenzhen's husband had bought were a generic…-

Chapter 73: Wife and Shop Abducted in One Swoop Xiang Zhen said finding a husband was as simple as seeing someone you liked and asking if they wanted to get married. Was it really that easy? Dou Manning felt that finding a husband was a deeply private matter. When Shen Ku emerged from the bathroom, he hurriedly shoved his phone under the blanket. Shen Ku was wearing only a black tank top and shorts. In the past, whenever Dou Manning saw him, he was always wearing a reflective vest and…

Chapter 72: You Can Also Find a Husband Work resumed at three in the afternoon. With the sun beating down directly on the work zone, hauling bricks wasn't nearly as comfortable as it had been in the morning. Dou Manning had spent the entire morning pondering what Shen Ku's specific job was without ever catching a glimpse of it. Overcome by curiosity, he asked Master Zhang, "Master, there's a guy from your crew who often goes out to buy coffee. Do you know who he is?" How could Master Zhang not…

Chapter 71: He Couldn't Sell Coffee to Shen Ku Anymore "Start work at six in the morning tomorrow, break at ten-thirty, resume at three in the afternoon." The foreman instructed Dou Manning, telling him to report 15 minutes early to collect his safety helmet and reflective vest. Dou Manning: "Okay." Just as the foreman left, a dust-caked heavy vehicle screeched to a halt. Dou Manning looked toward the sound to see a formidable, resolute, and handsome man step out of the driver's seat. He…

Lu Li was actually quite confident, feeling that although he couldn't compare to one-tenth of Xie Jianwei, he was still a handsome ghost. In the ghost realm, plenty of spirits praised his looks: fine facial features, great physique, good in every way. He had also seen Xu Qi and considered himself more than ten tiers handsomer than that top-tier scumbag, so Xie Jianwei ought to like him, right? Yet Xie Jianwei looked utterly shocked, his eyes even filled with revulsion. Lu Li's fragile heart…-

They had agreed on starting work today, so why go back on their word? How could they be so completely unprofessional?! Xie Jianwei pondered this. To be rejected so abruptly, could Lu Li be pulling strings behind the scenes? He had sensed that Lu Li wasn't keen on him going to work. It shouldn't be to that extent, though. Lu Li was quite petty about certain things (prone to jealousy), but on matters of principle, he respected people greatly, generally refraining from excessively interfering with…

Yuqing had known early on that their child was remarkably bright. Zhou Xiao could recite the Thousand Character Classic at three, compose poetry at five, and grasp worldly principles by six. Since the moment Yuqing could understand words, he had eavesdropped outside his elder siblings' schoolroom, committing everything he heard to memory with effortless perfection. Naturally, the child born of these two was exceptionally intelligent. During the "drawing lots" ceremony at his first birthday,…-

The voyage took nearly a month. Yuqing’s greatest fear was that Qingming would struggle to acclimate to the sea and suffer from severe motion sickness. Many adults were racked with nausea, unable to keep food down; as a premature child, it was perfectly natural for Qingming’s adaptability to be lower. Initially, the boy was indeed lethargic and unaccustomed to the rocking vessel, even vomiting once. But after two days of adjustment, he was thoroughly conquered by the array of Western cuisine he…

By the time Qingming was two and a half years old, preparations to connect Baizhou to the railway were underway. Baizhou was not the terminus; several large neighboring counties needed integration, and the northern metropolises beyond Baizhou represented an enormous, untapped market. The interlocking railway components were all imported. The parts Zhou Xiao had initially brought from France were nearly depleted after a year's use. Domestic alternatives existed, but their use drastically increased…

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…
