AADWFL Chapter 36
At 4:40, before the alarm could ring, An Ning’s eyes opened on their own. Seeing the time, he felt a little regretful for losing those twenty extra minutes of sleep. Still, he accepted his fate, got up, turned the alarm off ahead of time, and walked into the bedroom. Before he even realized what he was doing, his hands were already digging through the wardrobe, searching for something appropriate to wear. Tonight’s dinner would be just him and Yu Xiuming. That meant there’d be no business…-

AADWFL Chapter 35
After work, the first thing An Ning did was take Yu Xiuming’s tea-stained shirt and call Tao Kang that evening. An Ning didn’t personally handle clothing care; that was always left to the house steward, Tao Kang. “What happened, spilled tea?” Tao sounded surprised. “It was my fault,” An Ning admitted apologetically. “Luckily, the tea wasn’t too hot—if it had burned President Yu, that would’ve been terrible.” “It’s fine,” Tao reassured, hearing the guilt in his voice.…-

AADWFL Chapter 34
“No… no, not really.” An Ning answered half a beat too slow, genuinely confused. “I—uh, my morning went fine.” The tail of his sentence lifted slightly, uncertain and questioning. Yu Xiuming’s smile didn’t fade. He pulled over a swivel chair and sat down two meters across from him, relaxed and composed. “Good.” Then, with deliberate ease, he asked, “So—what’s wrong, then?” An Ning’s hand froze midair, still holding the teapot. “I…” Assistant An was…-

AADWFL Chapter 33
After a whole day of inner conflict, Yu Xiuming decided it was better to be straightforward. He had received a photo Jing Yan had casually taken. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed only natural to ask An Ning about it—Not because he wanted to check up on him; he had no such right.It was just… even between ordinary friends, if you happened to bump into someone by chance, wouldn’t you at least mention it? And with how close their relationship was, pretending not to notice would’ve seemed…-

AADWFL Chapter 32
After putting down the book, Yu Xiuming knew Jing Yan wouldn’t say anything meaningful next, so he set his phone aside and walked out of the study. Though they lived in the same building, it suddenly struck him that he had no idea what An Ning usually did on his days off. Not surprising, really. Their schedules were consumed by work—so even rare rest days were divided into neat chunks of “productive downtime”: resting with eyes closed, working out, catching up on sleep, reading, or watching…-

AADWFL Chapter 31
Yu Xiuming’s friend had never been one for suspense—so naturally, he didn’t keep Jing Yan guessing. “It’s not that I can’t find a consultant,” Yu Xiuming explained. “But if I go through my own channels, An Ning will find out.” Of course, his network wasn’t built through An Ning. But personally hiring a real estate agent himself would be out of character.He’d have to send An Ning to handle it as his assistant—and that would ruin the surprise. “So you’ve decided to use me…-

AADWFL Chapter 30
The agent answered quickly and arranged a time and place to meet. Half an hour later, they met at the entrance of a residential complex. “Good evening, Mr. An,” the real estate agent greeted warmly, dressed in a professional suit as he shook An Ning’s hand. “Since you’re free today, let’s check out this unit first. If you have time over the weekend, we can look at another one — it’s a bit farther away, but the layout is quite nice too.” He then briefly introduced the property. It…-

AADWFL Chapter 3
That dinner didn’t go nearly as smoothly as An Ning had hoped. At least, from an assistant’s perspective, he’d handled it terribly — his boss told him to order, and he did… but after all that, for whatever reason or excuse, Yu Xiuming still had to take over and reorder everything himself. The new dishes soon covered the table that had just been full of fiery-red plates. It wasn’t hard to find non-spicy dishes in a Sichuan restaurant, but the flavor was, understandably, mediocre. And…-

AADWFL Chapter 29
Fortunately, the distance from the plane to the car wasn’t long. Still, that strange, hard-to-describe feeling once again spread between the two of them. Yet the man who had caused it all seemed utterly unaware, continuing to act as he pleased. The fine rain wasn’t enough to soak their clothes, merely coating their coats with a thin sheen of moisture. Under Yu Xiuming’s careful coverage, An Ning’s damp sleeve soon dried, and the lingering chill of the rain quickly disappeared under the…-

AADWFL Chapter 28
“You’re going to get engaged to Miss Yi?”An Ning’s throat felt stuffed with cotton as he forced the words out with great difficulty. Yu Xiuming was thirty—successful, influential, at the prime of his career and of marriageable age. “Who said I’m going to get engaged to Yi Mingwei?”Yu Xiuming sounded more shocked than An Ning. “An Ning, didn’t I say before—this is absolutely impossible?” An Ning knew that even before meeting Yi Mingwei for the first time, Yu Xiuming had made…-
