She Is Not a Paper Doll The elevator in the Office Building chimed, signaling its arrival at the 12th floor. As the doors slowly opened, I immediately saw Xu Xingruo standing near the reception desk. She was wearing the company’s standard light gray intern uniform. The loose-fitting shirt couldn't hide her vibrant energy. At 18 years old, she was like a freshly picked peach, radiating an unpolished vitality. Her oval face was fair and full, completely free of makeup, yet it held a natural rosy glow.…-

I Have Arrived The steam in the apartment bathroom hadn't completely dissipated, and the aromatherapy diffuser by the white porcelain tub was still slowly emitting smoke. As I wrapped myself in a bathrobe and lay down on the bed, I thought about how empty this two-hundred-square-meter apartment felt, even the echo carried a cold, clear quality. I had climbed too fast this year, moving from a small rented apartment to a River View Luxury Apartment, transforming from the "pretty boy" people used to tease…

She Is My Female Lead The next day, the office's floor-to-ceiling windows overlooked the city's dazzling neon lights, the glass reflecting the outline of my sharp, custom-tailored suit. A year was enough time for me to climb from the Operations Specialist trapped by a novel's tragedy to the Director of the Marketing Department. My fingertips traced the cool marble surface of my desk. Lin Zhiqing walked in, holding a cup of coffee. The 180cm tall young man stood straight before me, his neatly ironed shirt…

I Know Everything The moment the hot water submerged my nose, the feeling of suffocation surged like a tide, and my consciousness began to blur. The steam before my eyes gradually condensed into a white mist. Within the mist, Xu Xingruo’s figure slowly emerged—she wasn't crying, nor did she possess the pitiful vulnerability she had in the dream. She was wearing the navy blue professional suit from our first meeting, her hair neatly pulled back, and the light in her eyes, though gentle, carried an…

May the Divine Hear Cold sweat streamed down my temples, soaking the stray hairs on my forehead. I shot up from the bed, my chest still gripped by the weightless terror of the dream—Xu Xingruo was crying again. She stood on the edge of the 18th-floor balcony, her fingertips clutching the cold railing, her tears splattering onto the tiles. She asked me repeatedly, "Why didn't you save me?" Her voice was light as a feather, yet heavy enough to suffocate me. I sat on the edge of the bed, taking a long…

Reading Late into the Night It was two-thirty in the morning. The city was trapped in an impenetrable darkness, but the small apartment I rented still had a warm, yellow desk lamp lit. The light fell on the back of my hand, making the skin so white that the blue veins were almost visible—this was something my colleagues often teased me about, saying that if I grew my hair long and wore a skirt, I would surely make half the men in the Office Building turn their heads. I was used to these jokes, though…

Chapter 9 Opportunity Wen Yelan returned to the Institute of Geological Sciences like a stone dropped back into the deep sea. The surface ripples quickly subsided, leaving only the undercurrents of the deep water surging in places unknown to anyone. The memory of that night’s distress, his vulnerability, and Pei Yan’s sudden, yet abruptly halted, intrusion, was forcefully sealed away. The snowstorms of Mount Everest and the turbulence of the banquet hall had left no visible trace on him. Only he…-

Wen Yelan was woken up by the extremely jarring sound of an electric drill. The severe headache and the faint, cramping pain in his stomach made the process of regaining consciousness exceptionally difficult. He struggled to open his tired eyes, and the familiar ceiling came into view. Sunlight streamed through the gap in the curtains, illuminating fine dust motes floating in the air. The incessant drilling and hammering from the upstairs renovation rattled his temples. He struggled to sit up, rubbing…
