      by Aria — NSFW Chapter 292: Birthday Extra Dreams are false. Dreams are the opposite of reality. Huo Ranyin knew he was dreaming. He dreamt of his student days, back in high school. He was inside a classroom—an empty classroom devoid of people. It was dusk, and the light hovered between red and yellow, both bright and dim.

      by Aria — Shortly after dinner, the guests gradually dispersed. After seeing them off, Ji Xun returned to the room to face Huo Ranyin, the curve at the corners of his lips unable to be suppressed any longer. "I think they all know." "Know what?" Huo Ranyin was lazily reclining on the sofa. Ji Xun bypassed him and snuggled into the other side of the sofa. "Know about our relationship." "What makes you say that?"

    • HL CH290 [Extra] Cover
      by Aria — When he returned home that day, Huo Ranyin used the excuse that there were flaws in the renovation to call in workers to fix up a few Schrödinger-esque details, taking the opportunity to remove the surveillance camera in the corner of the living room.

"In your mind," Huo Ranyin leaned against the windowsill, casting a sidelong glance at Ji Xun with a faint smile, "knowing that your injury hurts makes me happy?" "..." He really is angry, isn't he? On…
    • HL CH285 [Extra] Cover
      by Aria — Having been admitted on April 29th, nearly half a month of hospitalization allowed Ji Xun to watch the once-bare plane tree branches outside his window burst into a lush expanse of powdery purple clouds. Heavy clusters of blossoms weighed down the slender twigs, drooping until they touched the windowsill.

      HL CH284.3 Cover
      by Aria — After counter-questioning three stories one by one, Yu Cisheng continued: "As for the diary... I admit, that matter was a worldly form of evil.

Yet he immediately followed with: "However, that wasn't a prank. It was genuinely a form…

Perhaps, again because of me, my dramatic family composition led you…
