Chapter 36: Gone Is Gone The day after Mochuan returned to Cuoyansong, he sent me a new contact’s info. It was Xiong Mingjie, head of the General Affairs Section at Cuoyansong Prefecture’s Rural Revitalization Bureau. A bit older than me, in his thirties, he was sharp, capable, and easy to work with. We’d occasionally mention Mochuan. Though a Xia person like me, Xiong Mingjie’s admiration for him rivaled any Cenglu’s. “Thanks to Pinjia, Cuoyansong’s been getting better and better.…-

Chapter 35: Words Meant to Curse You The corners of Mochuan’s lips slowly dropped, as if he’d been frozen in place. For a few seconds, he showed no reaction at all—and it was precisely this lack of reaction that convinced me he’d understood my meaning. Between us, many things didn’t need words. Couldn’t be put into words. He stared straight at me. “…Friends?” The bitterness lingered in my mouth, unyielding. It felt like the herbal brew had a mind of its own, snaking through my…-

Chapter 34: Sweet Enough to Get Addicted In the end, I only told Aunt Wan about Jiang Xuehan’s death. On the phone, she sobbed so hard she could barely breathe, cursing heaven’s injustice, Bai Qifeng’s heartlessness, and my mom for being so blind—giving up a vibrant life for a scumbag. At first, I considered notifying Bai Qifeng, but after hearing Aunt Wan’s tirade, I figured his conscience wouldn’t even flinch for my mom. So I didn’t bother. Maybe it was the chill I caught in the…-

Chapter 33: Thankfully, It Never Started “Isn’t this high-end jewelry?” Mochuan lowered his head to examine the necklace model around his neck, his voice tinged with confusion. “Isn’t it expensive?” “Not expensive, just… a few thousand,” I said, afraid that if I claimed it was pricier, he’d refuse it. I didn’t even dare stretch the lie into five figures. But it seemed even a few thousand was steep for this Cenglu Yan Guan—or perhaps he simply didn’t buy that it could cost…-

Chapter 32: How About I Give It to You? Kissed once—peeked at Mochuan’s shut eyes—kissed again. No waking? Grew bolder. Tongue wet his dry lips—traced them slow, like a glutton starved seven years, waiting, yearning, finally tasting the dream dish—greedy but savoring every bite. Nibbled his lower lip—no whiskey touched, yet I felt tipsy all over. Not enough—wanted more… What’s he taste like inside? Post-all-nighter brain—zero patience. Wanted to kiss him? Did it. Taste…-

Chapter 31: I Only Meant to Rub a Little Searched the shop name from the video—hoped to snag some black buckwheat to support them. Nope—not just buckwheat, all aid products sold out. No room for me to pitch in. The core of this aid thing—helping Cuoyansong grow, right? Maybe… I could too? Pushed the meeting room door—Huangfu Rou, mid-speech, paused. Waited till I sat before barking orders. “Brief by Friday…” Pen scratched notebook—rings, necklaces, bracelets,…-

Chapter 30: My Wife “These tricks—you learned them from Ming Zhuo, didn’t you?” Pinching my cheeks, Mochuan probed deeper into my mouth, pressing my tongue. Ming Zhuo? What’s he got to do with this? “I…” Pushing his fingers aside, I tried to argue—barely a word out, he swooped in, domineering, clamping my tongue with two fingers. “Picking up the bad, skipping the good—straight path ignored for crooked ones… That filthy thing, and you still eat with him.” His words…-

Chapter 29: Your Drinking Habits Are Truly Awful Inspecting each platinum feather’s shape—careful, missing no detail—I only spared a sliver of focus for Bai Qifeng on the headset once all hundred-plus feathers met my standards. “What’d you just say? Repeat it.” I straightened, signaled the craftsman—OK, next step. My casual tone irked him. “Can’t you respect your father a bit?” Rolled my eyes inward. “Didn’t I pick up?” “Took ten calls!” Bai Qifeng accused.…-

Chapter 28: All Desires Bring Suffering After Quiz Island shut down, I sank—listless, couldn’t muster energy for anything. Thought two breakups had taught me how to crawl out of a relationship. Wrong. Breakups are breakups; heartbreak’s different—no comparison. Post-breakup, I’d eat, drink, class, hang out—miss them, sure, but not obsess. Heartbreak? That person, those moments—they hijacked every second, left no room for anything else, no will to think beyond. Class, ball games, even…-

Chapter 27: I’m Great at Listening Wrong guy? Did I have another choice? As if… calling his name would make him okay with this. “Not important…” I nipped his earlobe—urgent, restrained—then vision blurred. Next thing, I’m tumbling back, crashing onto the soft bed, eyes squinting against the bright ceiling light. A tall figure blocked it—Mochuan’s face, shadowed, dark, unreadable. Chest heaving, he touched the ear I’d bitten—hands shaking with rage. “Lewd,…-
