C46 – Mountain Between Us
C46 – Mountain Between Us“Shu Rui, what’s wrong?”Li Shuru’s voice sounded calm, but the stillness in her eyes was anything but peaceful, and she answered with a careful, almost forced, “Nothing,” as if she could will her unease to disappear simply by refusing to acknowledge it. Her gaze slid away from the screen, then snapped back, restless and anxious, as if her attention had been hijacked by some invisible force.The moment she heard the words “Brother Han of Ling Shiqi,” her mind instantly flooded with images and implications, and she knew exactly what it meant even before she read the comments flooding the live stream. The audience was already filling the chat with hints and rumors, and it was clear that this wasn’t a simple mention, it was a sign.Han Jiang Lonely Shadow was probably watching Ling Shiqi’s live stream right now.After months in the industry, after having spent more than a year creating content, Li Shuru understood t
C45 – Trillionaire Confession
C45 – Trillionaire ConfessionThe front of the bus was a place where rules were supposed to matter, where the mountaineering club’s president could stand like a miniature dictator and lecture everyone on obedience and safety, and where the students could pretend they were listening while their minds wandered to more important things, like whether the snack aisle at the convenience store had restocked their favorite chips. Hu Heng, the club president, was doing his best to sound responsible and mature, explaining the rules with the kind of diligent seriousness that made him look like he was about to lead a rescue mission instead of a simple hiking trip. His voice carried the familiar tone of a person who had memorized a speech and was now reciting it with the hope that the audience would behave like obedient little robots.Yet, as the words flowed out of Hu Heng’s mouth, Leo Xu’s attention was fixed on the girl beside him, Amber Lin, with a gaze so steady it looked
C44 – Outing
C44 – OutingThe message had not been sent to the wrong person, and the truth of that fact felt like a sharp blade sliding out of a hidden sheath, ready to cut through any illusion of normalcy. Leo Xu had indeed passed the mountaineering club’s vetting process, and on Saturday morning, he stepped onto the bus reserved for the outdoor activity organized by the club, a scene that would have been completely ordinary if not for the fact that his presence there already carried the weight of an unspoken rumor.The coach waited at the entrance of the cafeteria where the club’s coach had parked, and Leo’s arrival coincided with the appearance of a young man who looked like he belonged in a travel magazine rather than a university club activity, dressed in hiking boots and full mountaineering gear, a cap shading his face as he greeted every student boarding the bus with the practiced, bright smile of someone who had spent too much time pretending that life was always this c
C43: Mountaineering Trap
C43: Mountaineering TrapThe message sat in Jiang Chen’s phone like a tiny bomb waiting to go off, and he stared at it with the kind of calm that only comes from knowing the world is about to make a fool of you, yet you have nowhere to run because your ego is already standing in the doorway holding a bag of popcorn. Cold River Lone Shadow had replied, or rather, the director had replied, and the single line of text was as straightforward as a punch to the face.“@DragonSoar, Director Lin, thanks.”The silence that followed was almost insulting, because it was the kind of silence that meant the other person had decided that whatever you said next was irrelevant, and that they had better things to do than entertain your existence.That made sense, of course.A person like Director Lin Rilang did not live in the same world as people who checked their phones every five seconds waiting for approval, because he had a schedule that would make a normal per
Chapter 42 — Trash Can Revelation
Chapter 42 — Trash Can RevelationLi Shuru returned to the dormitory with the same slow, restless steps she always used when her thoughts were circling too fast, and the moment she entered, the air of the room felt strangely calmer, as if the walls themselves were trying to absorb the tension she carried like a hidden burden. Guo Ran was sprawled on her bed with her laptop open, the screen casting a soft glow across her face as she was deeply absorbed in the usual Korean drama that made her forget about real life for a while, and her voice came out automatically the second she noticed Li Shuru had returned alone, because she could not help but ask in a half distracted tone, “Where’s Jin Jin?”Li Shuru sat down in her chair with a mind that refused to settle, and the question felt like a small pinprick, not because she disliked being asked, but because the question reminded her of the absence that now lingered in the dorm like a shadow. She answered without looking
C41: Apology on the Back
C41: Apology on the BackThe campus air still smelled faintly of late spring, a mix of warm stone, blooming hedges, and the faint metallic tang of stress that always clung to East University after an incident. Even the sunlight seemed to hesitate before touching the ground, as if the whole world was waiting for the next ridiculous turn in this chaotic little drama.“You go back first, I have something to deal with.”Ryan said it with the kind of calm that only comes from someone who has already decided the next move in his head, and the tone carried that cold certainty that made even the most confident people in the room pause.Luo Peng looked up, his brow knitting with concern, but he did not interrupt.“What is it?” he asked anyway, because humans insist on asking things even when the answer will only make them feel worse.Ryan did not explain. He simply turned and walked away, heading straight toward Bella Zhao without hesitat
