      by Volare Chapter 29 Zhao Ayi replied softly, "I've already told Xiao Gu, and he said he'll be back in twenty minutes." Alright, Ji Ruan sighed, then I’ll wait for twenty minutes before going to sleep. He took two steps into the living room when Fang Lan happened to look up. Their eyes met; she had put on exquisite makeup. With a smile and her eyeliner high, she immediately got up to greet him. "Xiao Ruan, it's been a long time!" Fang Lan grabbed Ji Ruan's hand, acting like a genuinely enthusiastic…

In front of countless lawn workers in the yard. Fang Lan's high heels stepped on the cobblestones of the path, causing her to stumble and grip her ankle in pain. Song Ling stood respectfully at the door, watching them as the car he called arrived. Fang Lan still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Song Ling. “—Madam, you should…

      by Volare Chapter 31 .. The light in the room was dim; Ji Ruan had only turned on the desk lamp, making it almost dark. 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. Outside the window, sporadic streetlights shone in, faintly igniting a small cluster of flickering light in his eyes, creating an inexplicable feeling of intimacy. As their gazes met, Ji Ruan was momentarily stunned, and warm feelings seemed…

      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. A heavy fear surged in Ji Ruan’s heart as he struggled to get up, but was pressed back down by a pair of hands holding his shoulders. The warmth of those…

      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 After the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, Ji Ruan hurriedly prepared for his exams and became busier after joining a new club. At first, he chose the Chinese Painting Club, attracted by its quiet environment with few members, allowing everyone to gather occasionally to paint leisurely. However, as Beijing University was about to hold its centenary celebration, the club teamed up with the school's news center to manage some promotional activities, and on that day a massive historical…

      TLDMDTBS Chapter 26 Cover
      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 20 The home that Gu Xiuyi referred to was not the villa that Ji Ruan was familiar with, but the apartment he stayed in most often. The interior style was the same as the villa, minimalistic and featuring cold tones, with no unnecessary decorations. As Ji Ruan stepped through the door and barely had time to glance around the living room, he suddenly covered his mouth and sneezed several times. Gu Xiuyi placed a pair of slippers in front of him, pushing his shoulder forward, "Change into…

      by Volare Chapter 21 Ji Ruan caught a cold again. Waking up in the morning, things didn’t feel right; the mosquito net above him swayed more violently than when he had low blood sugar. Ji Ruan closed his eyes to pause for a moment, then opened them again, but it didn’t help much. His head was spinning, and his temples throbbed painfully. He popped a lozenge in his mouth, sat up with his back against the wall for a while, and the dizziness eased a bit, so he slowly got out of bed. Because he felt…
