      by Volare Chapter 27 Is your face all messed up? Ji Ruan broke free from Gu Xiuyi’s embrace and immediately opened the front camera on his phone. …His face really is a mess.

Gu Xiuyi was leaning against the head of the bed, his sharp facial features blending into the darkness, leaving only the faint smile in his eyes.

      by Volare Chapter 23 - Two days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Aunt Zhao took a day off, and Gu Xiuyi simply took Ji Ruan out for a trip. A friend had a private mountain villa on the outskirts of the city, not far away; it was just right for a two-day one-night getaway, and they could even spend a night there. The two casually packed a few changes of clothes, didn’t call for a driver, and Gu Xiuyi drove them there himself, while Ji Ruan naturally took the passenger seat. It felt a bit strange; the…

      by Volare Chapter 24 Ji Ruan's hands were stiff. He hadn’t learned how to swim in his previous life, and it was even less likely he would in this life. The feeling of being out of control in the water was terrifying. “I can't do it.” Ji Ruan pointed at the external device behind his ear. “I have to take this off if I go in the water, and I won’t be able to hear.” “You don’t have to learn it right away,” Gu Xiuyi smiled. “Isn’t it fine to just relax and have some fun?” His…

      by Volare Chapter 26 Ji Ruan always thought that someone like Gu Xiuyi would only eat at various upscale restaurants when going out, but he didn't expect that he would choose a very down-to-earth hotpot restaurant. Located just two streets away from Jing Da, the entrance looked ordinary, yet it was packed inside. By the time they entered, there were no more seats available. Ji Ruan was thinking about whether to change to another place when Gu Xiuyi directly led him into a private room in the back. It…

      by Volare Chapter 22 When he woke up again, the ceiling before him was still white, but it was no longer the bright one from the campus hospital. No lights were on, and it wasn’t blinding. Ji Ruan was stunned for a moment, and despite feeling dizzy, he immediately tapped the bed in an attempt to create some sound. But it still seemed unclear.
