He turned over, his throat was as dry as smoke, his head was extremely dizzy, and his whole body was hot.Fumbling for his phone, he squinted his eyes when the screen turned on - three seventeen in the morning.

A different winter The light from the evening self-study passed through the frosted glass, casting regular light spots on the snow.Song Li was lying on the table, his cheek pressed against the cool surface, and his eyelids were as heavy as lead. He had played wildly in the snow for half a class in the afternoon, and now he was so sleepy that even the English essay Guo Guangchen read on the podium became a lullaby. "Don't sleep." A cool voice sounded close to my ears, with a hint of warmth that was…

Ruining the Atmosphere Early November. The sky was slightly heavy, as if the weather might change at any moment. Song Li stepped through the school gates right on time. No. 5 High School was quiet; the usually bustling campus was now empty. The bell rang. It was the third bell for the start of class. He had miscalculated; at this hour, classes had already begun.

Chapter 9: Ah Fei As night fell, the area around Hongke Bar became a blur of neon lights and revelry. Inside a private booth, Lu Fei smiled and pushed back the half-empty bottle a man had extended toward her. The man’s grip on the bottle tightened, though his expression remained unreadable as he sat back down. The man was named Wang Xin, though Lu Fei knew nothing of his background.

At first, Qin An'an would leisurely bring along a few English study materials, but after a while, she stopped bringing them altogether. Later on, she even started a side hustle as a matchmaker. Qin Qing hadn't thought much of it initially, helping Qin An'an with her studies whenever she could. It wasn't until she started hearing things that didn't sound quite right that she put a stop to…

Chapter 6: Summer Break of Grade 8 In August, during the summer break of Grade 8, the rainy season in Linqi County continued. Today, a light rain fell, pitter-pattering against the ground and unsettling the heart. Several men in leather shoes took shelter under a carport. Rain dripped through holes in the roof, sliding down the thick brow of one of the men. The man stared at the two people across from him for a long time, his sharp eyes narrowing into a thin line. Big brother, it is this woman. A lackey…

Chapter 5: Could It Be This Girl? The intermittent sound of typing echoed through an office in the Linqi County Police Station. A man named Bai Yang, dressed in his police uniform, stared at the computer screen with his sword-like brows slightly furrowed. A knock at the door made Bai Yang relax his expression. He looked away from the screen and toward the door. "Come in." The person who entered was a young man who looked much greener than Bai Yang. He gave a sharp salute before stepping forward to hand…

Chapter 4: Just One Photo Gu Yuwei woke up earlier than usual today, for no other reason than wanting to leave the house before that man woke up. It had rained all night in Linqi County, and Gu Yuwei had barely slept. To her, the presence of that man in the same room was more suffocating than the thunder and lightning outside. The man was named Gu Tao. Not yet forty, he was Gu Yuwei’s stepfather in name. Gu Yuwei didn't actually know much about the history between Gu Tao and her so-called mother. For…
