AADWFL Chapter 5
Tao Kang immediately noticed Yu Xiuming’s lapse in composure and quickly whispered,“Don’t act rashly.” Being able to keep his emotions hidden had been a skill Yu Xiuming had honed since childhood. Even the most seasoned opponents in the business world found it hard to read his expression or guess his intentions.But right now, he felt a solid weight pressing against his chest—he simply couldn’t calm down. After a long silence, he finally said,“Uncle Kang, please—go ahead.” The…-

AADWFL Chapter 4
Yu Xiuming had already told An Ning over the phone to go downstairs and meet Tao Kang, while he himself went ahead to wait in the lounge.When An Ning accompanied Tao Kang inside, he realized his boss hadn’t just arrived—he’d even taken the time to brew tea with a full set of teaware. When they entered, Yu Xiuming had his back to the door. At work, he was always impeccably dressed in tailored suits—custom-made each season, outrageously expensive, and of the highest quality. To An Ning, this…-

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 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…-
