High fever. Lying on an unfamiliar bed, waiting for Yang Ke to return with medicine, Yu Zhinian drifted between sleep and wakefulness, and found himself inexplicably recalling his twenty-first year. A very particular year. Exhausting. Mediocre. But a year in which Yu Zhinian had not yet completely lost his courage. That October, early in the month, Yang Zhongyun said he wanted to come to He City to see Yu Zhinian and Yang Ke. After landing, he suddenly suffered cardiac failure and was rushed to aβ¦

Yu Zhinian's room was very dark. Yang Ke sat by his bed for a while, his eyes adjusting to the darkness until he could make out the outline of Yu Zhinian curled up beneath the blankets. These past few days, Yang Ke had ignored Yu Zhinian's requests to move out multiple times. He probably knew Yu Zhinian wasn't happy. It wasn't that he didn't want to talk, but rather he didn't know where to start. Because the moment he spoke, Yu Zhinian seemed to begin resisting. Yang Ke didn't understand why Yuβ¦

Yang Ke tipped the driver who had been waiting for a long time. The driver stubbed out his cigarette and drove away from the mansion. The butler also came out and, at Yang Ke's gesture, took Yu Zhinian's suitcase away again. Night mist rose from the ground, and the air was somewhat cold. After standing for a moment longer, Yang Ke said to Yu Zhinian: "Let's go." Before entering the house, Yang Ke let Yu Zhinian go in first, and he himself smoked a cigarette at the door. Yu Zhinian had neverβ¦-

In the afternoon, Yang Ke drove Yu Zhinian to school and told him to call when the meeting ended, saying he would work in the car for a while. The project group meeting was difficult to control in terms of duration. Yu Zhinian didn't want Yang Ke to wait long and suggested he could go back on his own, but Yang Ke didn't listen. He just said, "Call me when the meeting ends." The afternoon meeting lasted two hours before it ended. The classmates organized their materials and left the classroom. Yuβ¦

At dinner, Yu Zhinian asked Li Lu quite a few questions about asset transfer and learned that the cash he could access was mainly from share dividends over the past few years. As for everything else, it would require going through additional procedures. Moreover, the trust had harsh stipulations regarding the sale of shares, and it could easily cause company turmoil. There was no rushing it. In short, Li Lu's meaning was simple: get married first, then talk about the rest. Yu Zhinian listened withβ¦

After lunch, Yu Zhinian went home to get his laptop and change clothes before heading back to school. Since the study he used to occupy had been commandeered by Yang Ke, he decided to go to the library to revise his thesis. His advisor's revision comments were very detailed. He worked on them until evening and only finished half, still having materials from several other courses to review. He went to a cafΓ© to grab something to eat, then returned to the library to continue. Yu Zhinian was soβ¦

Twenty-Five (2019) Early the next morning, Yu Zhinian headed to the library with his laptop on his back. It wasn't until noon that he had a chance to pick up his phone and saw that Smith had sent him many pictures and descriptions of hotels. He skimmed through them roughly. It was indeed a beautiful resort hotel, with a swimming pool, a beach, lush greenery, and copper ceiling fixtures and color coordination in the rooms, very much in the spirit of a holiday getaway. But he still didn't want toβ¦

The origins of things could be traced, more or less. Yang Zhongyin's special attention to Yu Zhinian was no different. When Yang Ke and Yu Zhinian lived in the same house, Yang Ke had several chances to glimpse the reason for this, or to notice more oddities about Yang Zhongyin, but at the time, Yang Ke never connected the pieces together. He only treated it as one of Yang Zhongyin's more persistent abnormal behaviors, and so he missed every opportunity. On the day Yu Zhinian had been at Yang Ke'sβ¦

After Thanksgiving ended last year, Yang Zhongyin didn't come home much for several months. Yang Ke was used to it. He guessed that Yang Zhongyin had probably gotten involved with someone new, and he hoped his grandfather wouldn't bring them back to the house this time. Yu Zhinian, on the other hand, was quite happy. Since Yang Zhongyin wasn't asking him to accompany him as often, Yu Zhinian got a taste of freedom he'd been missing for a long time and developed quite a few hobbies. In March, oneβ¦

Much later, under Yang Ke's deliberate neglect, the details of the years he and Yu Zhinian spent in harmony had become very blurred in his mind. Like covering a scar, Yang Ke draped those years in thick gauze, sealed them with tape, and when he recalled them, he could at most catch glimpses of fragments that were both sparse and fleeting through cracks that barely existed. However, Yang Ke's winter at eighteen was somewhat special, and could not be counted as a scar. Even when he most resented Yuβ¦
