You look at me Having just showered, the evening temperature in Jiangcheng was only in the low twenties Celsius; the gentle breeze wafting in should have felt cool and refreshing. Yet, a scorching anxiety caused fine beads of sweat to form in Cheng Jiqing’s heart. “I don’t want to…” Her gaze wasn’t on the screen, only catching a glimpse of pale skin under a light yellow hue in her peripheral vision. “You look at me.” “…” Cheng Jiqing breathed calmly. “Go to…-

Risk hedging Cheng Jiqing finally managed to get rid of that nuisance Song Ling. Holding the bottle of red wine Song Ling had brought, she turned around. She lowered her head to look at her phone. Just when Song Ling had said that sentence, Bai Xin's call had disconnected. “…” Cheng Jiqing let out a light ‘tsk’ of annoyance. Clutching her phone, she walked towards the swimming pool. Beside the lounge chair stood a small wooden table, and she poured a glass of water, placing it on the…

Full of tricks and schemes On a high floor at night, the autumn wind stirred the mist from the swimming pool. Most of the lights were off, and the surroundings were hazy, like a layer of ambiguously textured film. Even before Cheng Jiqing finished speaking, Bai Xin already felt herself weakening, about to go soft. A hand, adorned with white jade bodhi beads, slipped past the open overcoat and wrapped around the slender waist beneath. The cool quality of the Buddhist beads, separated by only a thin…

Cool down for a few days The sky had been gloomy all day. Although it was just a dense drizzle, it finally started to fall. The early autumn wind poured in from the window with black iron bars in the hallway, carrying the cold, damp air that soaked into her skin. Bai Xin stood waiting by the elevator, her fingertips trembling slightly. She was wearing a thin long dress without a jacket—she always forgot about that. Then she remembered. When autumn began at the start of the month, Cheng Jiqing…

Want to try again Nine o'clock in Jiangcheng. The main entrance was a revolving glass door, flanked by two large floor-to-ceiling windows. Heavy, gold-threaded curtains were drawn to either side, but it was too dark outside to see the rain clearly from within. You could only hear how loud the rain was, and occasionally see someone enter looking irritated or travel-worn. Bai Xin found her voice: "How long is 'a few days'?" A rather childish question. And rather fixated. She knew it…

Want a look? Next to Tang Jia's office was a small room of a few square meters. A folding bed was stored against the wall, and in front of the sliding glass window was a black desk with a small table lamp on it. When Tang Jia occasionally didn't go home, she would make do here. As she entered, she saw Bai Xin sitting at the desk, slowly eating a lukewarm takeout meal, holding her phone. Warm light shone directly from the window onto Bai Xin, giving a sudden illusion of gentleness. She heard Bai…

Busy right now The deep night had crumpled Beicheng into a ball, making it seem like it was fermenting. Cheng Jiqing's hand pulled back from the inner door handle, her clear gaze fixed on the two people approaching in the distance. She couldn't make out what they were saying, only a heavy feeling lingered. After a few minutes, Bai Xin turned and went upstairs. Zhou Yushu stood by the car door, watching until she saw Bai Xin reach her floor, only then did she get into the car. She hadn't…

Just this once The sunlight outside the car window looked a bit dazzling. Beicheng was clear, an early autumn scene. A soft warmth crept over the city streets, stretching the shadows of all things. She sat inside the car, in the shade. After the call was disconnected, there was an 'X' icon at the bottom of the screen. Bai Xin's gaze darkened, the atmosphere around her chillingly low. This was the first time Cheng Jiqing had hung up on her… She was quiet for a moment. Her heart actually…

Unable to connect "Chengcheng?" Cheng Jing repeated the name, taking a slight step forward. "What's this? Miss Bai is very familiar with my younger sister?" Cheng Jiqing: "…" Cheng Jiqing tilted her head up. Her long, wavy, teal-colored hair wasn't tied up, and a strand briefly obscured her vision as it blew in the cool wind. She squinted. In her view, Bai Xin was staring at her intently, not answering Cheng Jing, but rather seeming to wait for her reply. Cheng Jing had just found out…

What about the future? "Chengcheng, who is it?" Cheng Jing's voice came from the room behind her. Cheng Jiqing's back suddenly tensed, and she gestured with her eyes for Bai Xin to be quiet. Cheng Jiqing: "Oh, it's the room service attendant." She raised her hand slightly again, pointed to the door, and silently mouthed to Bai Xin: "Leave first." Cheng Jiqing suddenly heard some movement in the room, and her heart gave a little jump. It felt as if there was an untimed bomb beneath her feet,…
