On Sunday evening, Shen Li went to his shop as usual. The drunkenness from Saturday night felt like a dream, and by the time he woke up, all the emotions and troubles had faded from his memory. But today, his thoughts kept drifting to how Lu Changting's blind date had gone. What kind of person was the woman? Did they hit it off, or were they just going through the motions? He was lost in thought when someone tapped him on the shoulder. He instinctively turned his head, saw no one, and then turned…-

Shen Li was sitting in the driver's seat, the car still parked in front of the hair salon, holding his phone and waiting for a long time—waiting for a reply from Lu Changting. Finally, a message came through: "Boss Shen, have you ever been on a blind date? Got any experience to share?" He had been on one once, tricked into it, where the other party deliberately brought a male companion to disrupt the date. After everything was laid out in the open, everyone just parted ways. What experience…

The meal wasn’t as relaxed as Lu Changting had imagined. Although he was the guest, Shen Li seemed even more restrained at the dining table. He didn’t say much, ate quietly, and only smiled and responded when addressed—courteous but overly formal. After the meal, Shen Li took the initiative to clear the table and retreated to the kitchen. Lu Changting felt like he was avoiding him. Though the reason was valid, Shen Li clearly made a point of keeping his distance. Cheng Zhao put away the…

On Friday, Lu Changting received a call from Cheng Zhao, asking if he was free over the weekend to come over for a meal. They agreed on Saturday afternoon. All of Saturday morning, Lu Changting pondered what kind of gift would be appropriate to avoid being impolite. Not knowing Cheng Zhao and Shen Li's preferences, he decided to buy some fresh fruit. He didn't dress too formally—just a white T-shirt paired with a loose denim jacket, black casual pants, and white sneakers. It was a look that should…

"Hey, why haven't those guys who messed up business today shown up yet?" Jiang Chifeng extinguished his cigarette and glanced at the clock on the wall, where the hour hand was still at the zero mark. Shen Li replaced the alcohol in front of him with yogurt, a new flavor at the bar—snow pear yogurt, served in a glass with a slice of lemon on the rim, looking quite appealing. "It's a good thing they're not here. Why are you hoping they'll come?" "I don't drink yogurt." Jiang Chifeng pushed the…

"Mr. Lu, a busy man like you actually found time to invite me to dinner." Fan Jingling lounged casually at the table, sipping his drink leisurely. "Just say what you need to say. I’m very busy and don’t have time for idle chit-chat." Lu Changting knew that Fan Jingling had a peculiar personality, so he didn’t find his bluntness rude. Since they weren't close, getting straight to the point could save a lot of time and trouble. "Young Master Fan, you should probably take some time to deal with…

When Lu Changting arrived at "Gu Jiu," he found Shen Li and Lu Changge playing a card game called "Draw the Turtle" at a booth. The loser had to let the winner draw on their face. It was unclear whether Shen Li was intentionally losing or if Lu Changge was just that lucky, but as Lu Changting approached, Lu Changge was happily drawing the final stroke on Shen Li's forehead, creating a bold "king" character. To Lu Changting, it looked less like a fierce tiger and more like a big, spotted…

The biggest takeaway from the vacation was exchanging phone numbers with Lu Changting and adding each other on WeChat. However, Shen Li quietly stayed in Lu Changting's WeChat contact list, repeatedly scrolling through his moments but not daring to even like a post. Lu Changting was busy with work and hadn't come back to "Gu Jiu". Shen Li continued with his usual routine: checking on the bar at night, catching up on sleep during the day, and balancing the books at home on weekends. Occasionally, he…

When Lu Changxu and the others returned, everyone had already packed up their luggage. Shen Li ran into Lu Changting and, perhaps because of his own feelings, thought that Lu Changting seemed to be in a bad mood. Lu Changting only gave him a polite and distant nod before heading to his room to pack his things. "Lu... Changting," Shen Li called out to him, still not quite used to saying his name and pausing briefly before he could say it completely. "Thank you for taking me back to my room last…

Coaxing Shen Li to release his grip, Lu Changting filled a cup with half a glass of warm water. As he handed it over, Shen Li unexpectedly grabbed his wrist and pulled him down, wrapping his arms around him like vines. Lu Changting was embraced by Shen Li. Realizing the intimacy of the position, Lu Changting tensed up completely. Shen Li clung to his shoulder, rubbing his cheek against Lu Changting's neck and murmuring, “Why did you come back so late? I’ve been waiting for you for a long…
