A light squeeze on his lowered neck caused Shen Li to look up in surprise, meeting a pair of smiling eyes. "What are you thinking about?" Lu Changting sat down beside him. Shen Li lowered his head again, his expression calm, giving nothing away. In the bar, surrounded by the vibrant, intoxicating lights and sounds, he seemed to isolate himself from all the excitement. Quietly seated, no one knew the turbulent emotions within him, except for his tightly clenched fingers that betrayed his inner anxiety…-

"Excuse me, I’d like to ask something." The young woman's voice was like a gentle breeze, softly dispersing the heavy bass in the bar. "Yesterday, I had too much to drink at the bar and seemed to have left without paying..." "And when I woke up, I found myself in a hotel. The receptionist at the front desk said two women brought me there last night, both wearing white shirts and black ties." She was still holding a note in her hand, pausing before continuing, "It looks a lot like your bar's…-

Shen Li hadn’t yet decided how to invite Lu Changting out when he received an invitation to Chu Jinghong’s engagement party. The invitation was personally delivered by Chu Jinghong to “Gu Jiu,” with the event scheduled for the end of July at the Chu family’s villa. Shen Li was surprised when he received the invitation, first because it hadn’t been long since Chu Jinghong reconciled with his girlfriend, and now they were already getting engaged. Second, he was surprised that Chu Jinghong…-

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…-
