AD CH72

by Aria — I'm not leaving.I'm not going back. Every time Shan Yu said things like this, Chen Jian felt incredibly secure. But following the brief surge of joy, he would also feel very... He truly loved hearing Shan Yu say these things, even though he knew full well that while this was Shan Yu's attitude, it wasn't necessarily reality. But he still wanted to hear it. This time, however, the feeling had undergone a subtle shift. Chen Jian remained silent. He looked at the phone Shan Yu had tossed…

AD CH71

by Aria — I want to fly higher, fly higher, dancing like the fierce wind, breaking free from the embrace... Wings stirring up a storm, a roar born in the heart... The life I want is more brilliant, the sky I want is a deeper blue... Back in school, Chen Jian had never felt anything for this song, which might abruptly blare over the loudspeakers at any given moment. At most, he'd hum a few lines along with it. Aside from the chorus, today was the first time he had actually figured out the lyrics. It seemed Chen…

by Aria — "I'll tell you all the details when we get back." Shan Yu turned around and smiled at him. "Tell me now," Chen Jian reached out and grabbed his arm. "If you aren't going to tell me now, why bring it up?" "The thought just suddenly popped into my head," Shan Yu said. "That's way too sudden," Chen Jian said. "I'm the kind of person who just does whatever comes to mind in the moment," Shan Yu said. "Then tell me while we're singing karaoke later," Chen Jian said. "Can't while singing, my…

AD CH69

by Aria — This was the price. Under the guiding principle of "help out wherever we can at Dayin" and "if we can't hire anyone, just let them work first and fire them later if they can't handle it," these employees—who probably wouldn't be able to find work anywhere else—managed to stay at Dayin. Dayin gained a group of hardworking employees who treated the inn as their home. But the price was that they had to deal with all the various debuffs the staff brought with them. And clean up their…

AD CH68

by Aria — All morning, Chen Jian couldn't help but want to laugh every time he saw Lao Wu. Fortunately, Lao Wu was in charge of cleaning the courtyard today, constantly sweeping and wiping down tables and chairs outside. There were still a lot of guests today. Some tourists from neighboring areas who had only come for the bonfire festival checked out, but new ones kept checking in. Thank goodness Huang-jie had arrived, otherwise there wouldn't have been anyone to clean the rooms. "Have Erhu drive the car over…

AD CH67

by Aria — For the bonfire festival, they had prepared some fireworks—though calling them sparklers or firecrackers might be more accurate, as they didn't quite reach the scale of full fireworks. If Dayin had been in charge of preparing this, it definitely would have been grander. Still, these fireworks did the trick. Lined up along the riverbank, they erupted into a shower of colorful light to the beat of the live band's music. The tourists on site burst into laughter and applause. Chen Jian returned to the…

AD CH66

by Aria — This question left Shan Yu somewhat stumped for an answer. It wasn't that there was no answer; it was just that to an outsider, this answer might... No, Chen Jian couldn't be considered an outsider. Not an outsider, not an outsider... Given Chen Jian's sensitivity to crossing boundaries, even when merely turning it over in his own mind, Shan Yu had to be very mindful. Chen Jian is an insider, he's an insider, no lines were crossed. Realizing what he was thinking, Shan Yu felt like an idiot and…

by Aria — "I'll go back and beat them all away!" Hu Pan's voice practically exploded from the phone. "I'll fight them to the death! They really dared to come here!" "Give the phone to Sanbing, Panpan." Chen Jian stood at the entrance of the cafe, looking out the window as Lao Wu led Hu Pan's family toward the backyard. "Give the phone to Sanbing." Chen Erhu's underlings were truly suited for this kind of work. Their vicious demeanor had steeped into their bones; they just needed to act naturally. "I'll…

AD CH64

by Aria — Chen Erhu’s fire safety training was thoroughly prepared. The notebook in his hand was densely packed with writing, proving he had taken his learning very seriously. What no one expected, however, was that this was only the first lesson. "Today, we covered the basics of fires—including definitions, classifications, hazards, and prevention measures." After getting through one entire lesson, Chen Erhu’s speech had become remarkably smoother. "We also went over the inn's fire safety equipment and…

AD CH63

by Aria — "Domestic violence?" Chen Jian looked at Sun Nana, not entirely sure if he could believe it. Sun Nana's sorrow felt a bit too exaggerated. Combined with her outfit, makeup, and runway-ready posture, Chen Jian even harbored a fleeting suspicion that if domestic violence were truly involved, Sun Nana might very well be the perpetrator. But a second later, he froze. Sun Nana turned her head slightly, sweeping her hair aside. Right next to her left ear was a purplish, bloodied gash. Further down, near…
