AADWFL Chapter 26
“Y–Yu… President Yu?!” An Ning prided himself on being good at handling unexpected situations.But this—this, he had never seen coming. It happened too suddenly, too absurdly.A thousand words fought to rush out, but not a single one made it past his lips. So, panicked, he blurted out the first thing that came to mind—and as always, the first thing said in panic was the most ridiculous one. “President Yu, what are you doing here?”The moment the words left his mouth, An Ning knew…-

AADWFL Chapter 25
Yu Xiuming gestured toward the bag. “It’s fine, don’t feel pressured. Jing Yan said people from out of town might not be used to the local food here, and this one’s supposed to be more universally liked. He wanted you to give it a try.” “Mr. Jing’s from Lenzhou?” An Ning asked in surprise. Jing Yan usually worked in Binzhou and was Yu Xiuming’s lifelong friend. He’d just naturally assumed Jing Yan was from the same city. Yu Xiuming explained, “No, he’s from Binzhou too. He…-

AADWFL Chapter 24
An Ning nodded. “Yes, President Yu. I—” The truth almost slipped out, but then he stopped himself. Since Yu Xiuming hadn’t asked, there was no need to volunteer unnecessary details—or bore his boss with trivial talk about his day. So he awkwardly swallowed the rest and forced a smile. “I went out today and lost track of time for a bit. Sorry for coming back late. It won’t happen again.” Even as he apologized, An Ning discreetly watched his boss’s expression—and quickly realized…-

AADWFL Chapter 23
The grand dishes of Lunzhou didn’t suit An Ning’s taste, but the street food had a charm of its own—surprisingly delicious. He wandered through a park, then stopped by a small café nearby, ordered a drink, and curled up by the window in a cozy booth. As he slowly sipped, he closed his eyes, letting himself drift. Xu Jianan had gotten straight to the point in that phone call. She’d learned that Yu Linshan—Yu Xiuming’s father—was planning to bring his illegitimate son into the company.…-

AADWFL Chapter 22
“This is my stance on the matter. You know it, and I know it too. I will not yield.” The voice rose and fell — sometimes clear, sometimes slightly muffled due to volume. An Ning, sensing the tension between the mother and son on the other end of the line, instinctively slipped over to the kitchen island, preparing chrysanthemum tea to help clear heat for Yu Xiuming. The kitchen, having been used for dinner the day before, had already been cleaned by the hotel staff and looked spotless. An…-

AADWFL Chapter 21
The semi-open kitchen in the suite looked as though it hadn’t been used in ages, yet it was spotless. The hotel staff arrived with not only the requested bag of ingredients but also another paper bag filled with cooking utensils and condiments. An Ning checked everything carefully, thanked the staff, then took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves, and stepped into the kitchen. He rummaged through the bag, found an apron — printed with the hotel logo — clearly borrowed from their kitchen, and…-

AADWFL Chapter 20
Looking at Yu Xiuming’s custom-tailored suit, the words “above mortal concerns” were practically written all over him. The sight of such a man making dipping sauce with practiced ease didn’t quite match up. An Ning froze for a moment, dazed by the contrast. He didn’t show it, though. Instead, he quietly made his own sauce — a black bowl with red trim, mixing sesame paste with crushed peanuts. “That combination tastes good?” Yu asked, frowning slightly as he watched An Ning add the…-

AADWFL Chapter 2
After returning to his own office, An Ning didn’t rush into his next tasks. Instead, he took the opportunity to sort out his thoughts. Sure enough, Yu Xiuming’s attitude toward him showed no sign that the original An Ning’s unrequited love could ever succeed. He smiled faintly, unconcerned, pulled out a small sticky-note notebook, and under the previously written “Stage Goals,” he added a new line in black pen: Ultimate Goal: Resign. Before work this morning, An Ning had already…-

AADWFL Chapter 19
Business trips were always packed tight. Once they landed, Yu Xiuming would likely head straight to a conference venue. It was a long-standing habit of his to tidy himself up before disembarking—and if he’d slept on the plane, that meant changing into a fresh set of clothes. “President Yu, would you like to change now?” An Ning asked. He’d managed to catch a brief nap while Yu Xiuming slept, and though it hadn’t been long, it was enough to clear his mind. Now, recharged, he was back in…-

AADWFL Chapter 18
If this had been a simple business trip, it wouldn’t have required so much fuss. The reason was simple—though Yu Xiuming had grown up with refined habits, he wasn’t actually fussy. His clothing style was elegant but practical: one business suit per day, all from a fixed luxury brand, tailored regularly, requiring no extra thought. For purely professional travel, An Ning just needed to pack the usual suits neatly into the luggage compartment reserved for them—simple, efficient, and done. But…-
