Cheng Ke followed Jiang Yuduo into the restaurant, with several of his underlings trailing behind. For a split second, he awkwardly felt like he had usurped Chen Qing, the chief enforcer's position. But compared to continuing to lock eyes with Cheng Yi at the restaurant entrance, this outcome was already perfect. He didn’t know whether Cheng Yi was still standing outside or had also come in, and he didn’t look back. "How many people, sir?" a server came over and asked. "Six,"…-

Chapter 10 Cheng Ke came back from the base of the wall to the street, where it was still a mess, with quite a crowd gathered. He did not know how Jiang Yuduo’s underlings had fared. He had wanted to stay and watch the ending, but after standing there for two seconds, he thought of what Jiang Yuduo had said. None of them treated themselves like people. He did not know whether that “them” included him too. Suddenly finding it all rather pointless, Cheng Ke turned and slowly walked toward the…

Chapter 11 Jiang Yuduo had barely stepped out of the door when Chen Qing was already pressing the elevator button. Cheng Ke still had not shut the door, and stood by the entrance watching. "No need to see us downstairs," Chen Qing said. "We can go down ourselves." "What gave you the illusion that I was going to see you downstairs?" Cheng Ke said. "You didn’t close the door," Chen Qing said. "...Fine." Cheng Ke sighed and shut the door. The elevator doors…

Chapter 12 Cheng Ke stared at the door in front of him, which had just been slammed in his face, and for a moment he couldn’t even react to whether he should say something, wait silently, or turn around and leave. "Wait a sec." Jiang Yuduo’s hoarse voice came from inside. "Oh." Cheng Ke answered. Jiang Yuduo’s voice sounded about the same as it had on the phone earlier, maybe even rougher. He was probably sick? Cheng Ke tried hard to clear the image of Jiang Yuduo’s naked body…

Chapter 13 Jiang Yuduo didn’t say anything else. He lay on the sofa with his eyes closed, his head resting on one arm, looking as if he had fallen asleep. But Cheng Ke only had to look at the furrow between his brows and the constantly fluttering lashes to know he wasn’t asleep at all, and probably didn’t feel very well. A beautiful thing? Cheng Ke didn’t know what Chen Zong Hufa was talking about, but a quick search on his phone for "dizziness beauty" turned up Ménière’s…

"You even forgot to take your keys?" Chen Qing asked in surprise from the car. "I’ve gone this many years," Cheng Ke frowned, "without ever having the concept of needing to take my keys when I leave home." "Oh," Chen Qing blinked. "Your neighborhood must have pretty good security, then, you don’t even need to lock..." Jiang Yuduo reached back and slapped Chen Qing on the forehead, knocking the rest of his words back down his throat. He said, "Get…

Jiang Yuduo had gone through countless sleepless nights. Most of the time, he just lay there or sat in the dark with his eyes open by himself. Occasionally, he would call a few people and find somewhere to drink. But those times were rare. Insomnia was not just the inability to fall asleep. It also brought all kinds of suffering, drowsiness, headaches, and random numbness and pain all over the body. So the better way to get through a sleepless night was to be alone. He had never had an experience like this…

Jiang Yuduo said nothing. He went around the table and stood beside Cheng Ke, looking at the picture on the table. After a while, he went into the bedroom and carried out Mao, who was asleep. "Mao," he pressed Mao's head down a little, "look, this is the young master's version of you made with salt. If you think it looks like you, and it’s well drawn, then meow once. If you don’t meow, then he loses." "Do you have any shame?" Cheng Ke looked at him. "Mao, look," Jiang Yuduo remained unmoved…

Jiang Yuduo was exactly the kind of curious little brat Cheng Ke had run into plenty of times before. On one hand, he thought, You’re such a freak. On the other, he couldn’t help wanting to dig into the freak’s life. Whether Jiang Yuduo thought he was a freak, that was hard to say, but curiosity was definitely there. No matter how much of a boss he was, he was still just a kid in his early twenties. Cheng Ke wasn’t all that bothered by this kind of question, either. As long as there was no obvious…

Given that the atmosphere between them had still been extremely tense just twenty minutes ago, even though it had eased a little now, Cheng Ke still did not want to show any special concern. That would look like he was trying to curry favor, and it would be ridiculously stupid. But he sat in the chair and watched for at least two minutes, and Jiang Yuduo had stayed exactly like that all along, turned sideways with his head down, looking at his arm under the tap as he ran cold water over it. His arm…
