    • JOH CH29: Dimples Cover
      by — Gu Yuanting finished knitting the last row of the shoulder seam, carefully threading the yarn through and putting away the half-finished pink-and-white sweater with great care. Only then did he get out of the car. What followed was another round of tedious yet quietly cutthroat busyness. Once things settled down, Gu Yuanting sat alone in his office and video-called Su Yiran. For the past few days, at this same time every day, he made sure to see Ranran once. The call quickly connected, and Su…
    • JOH CH30: Taking the Blame Cover
      by — Su Yiran really hadn't expected it—Gu Yuanting had done something like that behind his back. Bullying classmates, even making people cry… that was seriously over the line. Su Yiran felt very guilty and quickly apologized to the classmates: “I'm really sorry. I had no idea he actually did those things. Let me apologize on his behalf.” When he got home, he would definitely confront Ting-ge and make him properly apologize to everyone. Just how big of a psychological shadow had he left on…
    • JOH CH31: Face-Slapping Cover
      by — Su Yiran frowned slightly when Gu Yuanting didn’t reply and continued to lecture him: “You need to apologize properly to them, you know?” Gu Yuanting, struggling to suppress his inner fury, could only accept the unexpected blame falling on him like a giant pot from the sky: “…I’ll give them gifts to apologize.” Hearing this, Su Yiran finally relaxed. “I already told them. We’ll treat them to a meal together and prepare some gifts.” Gu Yuanting: “…Okay.” Then Su Yiran…
    • JOH CH32: Got Myself a God Cover
      by — In the blink of an eye, another week passed. Su Yiran’s dessert shop, Yiting Desserts, was getting more and more popular. After launching the limited-edition Dirty Bun, he went on to release Dirty Cake, Dirty Smoothie, and Dirty Milk Tea. As soon as these new additions to the Dirty Series hit the market, both online and offline, they received a wildly enthusiastic response. Aside from the Dirty Series, his first signature dessert line — like the Soy Milk Box — also became widely loved. The…
    • JOH CH33: Trust Cover
      by — Su Yiran said, “There are so many people in Weihua, it’s normal your friend doesn’t know Ting-ge. Plus, Ting-ge was recently sent abroad.” Weihua Financial was a big company. With so many employees and different departments, it was common for people to not cross paths. Besides, Gu Yuanting had only officially joined recently and was sent abroad shortly after. So it made sense that Hang Zikun’s friend hadn’t noticed him yet. What Su Yiran didn’t expect was that Hang Zikun would actually…
    • JOH CH34: The Mask Falls Cover
      by — After leaving the Apple Livestream Anniversary event, Hang Zikun went to his usual entertainment club and stayed until midnight. He wasn’t used to sleeping over there, so he drove himself home. Driving his luxury car worth hundreds of thousands back to his spacious 150-square-meter apartment in the city center, Hang Zikun felt elated. He thought about the car Su Yiran’s family drove—it wasn’t even worth 100,000 yuan, just a shabby little thing. Ah, how the tables had turned. Hang Zikun was…
    • JOH CH35: Lullaby Cover
      by — After finishing a business negotiation, Gu Yuanting returned to the top floor of the company's headquarters around noon. As usual, while preparing to read some documents, he opened the computer next to him and pulled up the surveillance feed from back home to check on Ranran. It was around 4 or 5 PM in the domestic time zone—Ranran should still be busy at the dessert shop. But when he opened the surveillance, Gu Yuanting was surprised to find that only a few employees and customers were in the…
    • JOH CH36: Sleet Cover
      by — The next day, Su Yiran woke up feeling a bit clearer-headed. He got up, washed, ate breakfast, and changed into clothes for going out. Grabbing his keys, he headed to the shop to open for business as usual. On this ordinary morning, like any other, Su Yiran gradually recalled some details he had previously overlooked. When he arrived at the shop, several employees were already there, preparing for the day’s business. Su Yiran had given a set of shop keys to Zhang Xiaohong, one of the employees,…
    • JOH CH37: First Kiss Cover
      by — The next morning, Su Yiran didn’t go straight to the shop. Instead, he stayed home, reviewing the draft statement he had prepared the previous night to counter the rumors. After making some minor edits, he logged into Weibo to post it. According to his original plan, he would post the statement, observe the situation, and then follow up with additional responses as needed. After posting the statement, Su Yiran habitually checked the trending list. To his surprise, the negative topics about him and…
    • JOH CH38: I’m Jealous of Myself Cover
      by — Su Yiran’s lashes trembled as he closed his eyes, his face flushed and legs weak from Ting-ge’s kisses. Blushing, he wrapped his arms around Ting-ge’s neck, responding passionately to his tender kisses. Gu Yuanting kissed him gently and lingeringly, their lips clinging together as if enchanted, unwilling and reluctant to part, from heart to body. Su Yiran’s limbs felt soft from Ting-ge’s kisses. Shyly, he responded with his eyes closed, his face red, and even the corners of his eyes…
