Chapter 23: The Culinary Conspiracy Zhang Liuxin hadn't expected that to be the first thing Wen Jin said upon returning. He nodded. "Yes, I used it. It’s quite useful." An awkward silence inevitably spread between them. Zhang Liuxin studied Wen Jin’s expression but couldn't discern anything. Wen Jin handed him the lemon. As Zhang Liuxin slowly peeled it, the sharp, sour scent of the lemon burst forth between them. Zhang Liuxin spoke again, "Last night, I'm sorry." Wen Jin raised an eyebrow in…-

Chapter 22: Zero Romance The moment he opened his eyes, his consciousness gradually detached from the dream and he woke up. Zhang Liuxin rubbed his eyes and slowly propped himself up. He was alone; Wen Jin’s quilt was neatly folded and placed at the foot of the bed. Fragments of last night’s dream flashed through his mind. The rain in his memory became clear again, brought into focus by his proximity to Wen Jin. If he hadn’t joined that club, or hadn’t met Wen Jin in the library, would their…

Chapter 21: Coincidence or Inevitability (2) Wen Jin’s substantial gaze swept over him like an ice blade, finally resting on the umbrella in his hand, which was encased in a plastic bag. Zhang Liuxin tightened his fingers uncomfortably and mumbled, “Senior?” This floor housed literary books. Zhang Liuxin had assumed Wen Jin would go to the archives room when he came to the library, so he hadn't expected to see him here again. Wen Jin lifted the book in his hand and asked, “Do you want to read…

Chapter 20: Coincidence or Inevitability (1) "Senior Wen, please sit here." A'duo stood up and moved his chair closer to Wen Jin. Wen Jin casually pulled over a nearby chair. "No need, I'll sit here." A person abruptly sat down beside him, and a unique, cool fragrance, impossible to describe, wafted over. Zhang Liuxin didn't even dare to turn his head, only secretly glancing at the corner of the clothing and the hand resting casually on the table in his peripheral vision. Wen Jin's presence was too…

Chapter 2 A Runaway Romance (2) So hot… A burning sensation enveloped him. The phantom pain in his legs seemed to surge back, and his breathing grew rapid. Zhang Liuxin struggled to open his eyes, only to be stung by the blast of heat that hit his face, making the corners of his eyes ache. The last thing he remembered was looking at Wen Jin’s profile as he drifted off to sleep. Now, waking up again, the neat and comfortable first-class cabin had turned into an inverted hell. Flames erupted from the…

Chapter 19 Inorganic (3) The gathering that Zhang Qiannan mentioned was, unsurprisingly, filled with the second generation of wealthy and aristocratic families from Yinzhou. Zhang Qiannan moved through the crowd like a fish in water, seemingly having something to talk about with everyone. Zhang Liuxin, in complete contrast, sat alone by the water bar after Zhang Qiannan brought him in, completely out of place, slowly sipping a lemon soda. During the event, someone approached him, intending to strike up a…

Chapter 18 Inorganic (2) The food at this expensive restaurant was quite mediocre, at least for Zhang Liuxin. Most of the dishes were not to his taste. Tian Ke, however, loved it. Since the food arrived, he had taken many photos, sharing them with someone unknown, constantly tapping on his keyboard and chatting. The other roommate noticed Zhang Liuxin hadn't eaten much and asked if the food wasn't to his liking. "It's fine, I can eat it." The roommate asked him, "But since you're half Bernlinian, you…

Chapter 17 Inorganic Substance (1) Although his mock exam scores before the test were good, Zhang Liuxin was still very excited when he actually received the admission letter from InterState University. After the admission results were announced, many people sent congratulatory letters and gifts to the Zhang family, all congratulating Zhang Qiannan. Naturally, none of it was for Zhang Liuxin, but he didn't care. The day before he was due to report to the university, he placed the admission letter on the…

Chapter 16 The Willow Tree (2) Grandma Mo nodded, giving them a thumbs up and saying they had excellent temperaments and were a perfect match. Duo Fei chimed in agreement: "I think so too." Zhang Liuxin didn't really understand why everyone here said they were a perfect match. Was it just excessive politeness? After all, back in Yinzhou, unscrupulous gossip magazines often mocked their marriage as a hypocritical window display, deliberately putting on a show of deep affection and mutual respect for the…

Chapter 15 The Willow Tree (1) When Zhang Liuxin came out of the back kitchen carrying a plate of freshly baked desserts, he saw Wen Jin sitting next to Duofei, teaching her the Yinzhou language. “Liuxin.” As soon as Duofei saw him, her eyes lit up and she called his name. Zhang Liuxin hadn't expected Wen Jin to teach Duofei his name first. “Hmm,” he tried asking, “Do you know what these two characters mean?” Duofei shook her head. Zhang Liuxin smiled, just about to explain it to her, when…
