Qi Lin had no idea how the conversation in the next room was going. He sat upright and listened for a long while without catching a single word, and began to suspect that Jiang Changpeng hadn't made any phone call at all. Jiang Yishen seemed completely unbothered by any of it. He propped his chin on his hand and dozed off. Ten minutes later, Jiang Changpeng finally pulled the bedroom door open a crack, showing only half his face, making sure his voice could carry through: "You two go on." Hearing…-

Jiang Yishen held on and refused to let go. Qi Lin tried to reach out and grab the shopping cart but failed, so he could only pat Jiang Yishen on the back: "Alright, alright, we can hug when we get back." His heart and mind were fixed on those few snacks in the cart. If they had all toppled over it would have been fine, but one carton of yogurt stood stubbornly upright, and the sight of it made him feel like ants were crawling all over his body. Jiang Yishen obediently stood all the chocolates back…

April 15th, Qi Lin sent me egg roll pastries today (smiley face). April 16th, had a very brief phone call, wanted to tell him I've been having nasal allergies lately, forgot to mention it (no expression). April 17th, sent a message (unhappy). April 18th, (unhappy). April 19th, (no expression). April 20th, made a phone call, the egg roll pastries are all gone (crying). Qi Lin quietly flipped through it. This wasn't a diary in the strict sense -- just a few calendar pages torn out…

Not too many people came to the gathering today. Quite a few had already gone home for the winter break, and those who remained huddled together to celebrate Laba, which still made for a lively scene. Eight guys packed the table full, all familiar with each other. No need for icebreakers before the conversation was already roaring. Xu Baili didn't like cake, so once the birthday gifts were accepted the celebration was considered done. The dishes came out quickly, and right in the center of the table…

Getting Jiang Yishen into the apartment was a physical ordeal. Qi Lin was half dead from exhaustion, and the moment he dumped him onto the sofa, the man woke up on his own.Qi Lin was bent over changing out of his outer pants when a large hand suddenly hooked around his waist and pulled him backward. He lost his balance and toppled onto the sofa, and before he could get up, Jiang Yishen burrowed into his arms, pressing down on his legs with a heavy, solid weight.His pants were only half off, still hanging…

Qi Lin had no idea what was going on. He was bundled up along with the cart and hustled away by Jiang Yishen in a confused rush, and they didn't stop until they'd run all the way to the grain and oil dry goods section. The phone had already been ringing for fifty seconds. Jiang Yishen answered it one moment before it would have cut off automatically, and said in a deliberately casual tone: "Hello? Dad." "Where are you?" The voice on the other end was full and resonant. "I..." In the span of a…

Jiang Yishen had made a point of showing Qi Lin off in front of his dad, wanting to leave a good impression and lay the groundwork for coming out.He circled around Qi Lin like a peacock fanning its tail, a full 360-degree display, spinning until Qi Lin felt dizzy and disoriented.Father Jiang was talked into a daze by the two of them going back and forth, and at checkout he casually paid for the whole cartload of daily necessities Qi Lin had picked out. When he charged up to the register, his momentum was…

The meeting with Yin Yu was set for noon. In the previous loop it hadn't come together, so this time Qi Lin got there first and locked in the time early. The place was a restaurant near the school. Yin Yu had picked the spot, and Qi Lin and Jiang Yishen only realized when they arrived that it was a roast duck restaurant. The moment they walked in, two stone lions crouched on either side of the entrance, a moon gate faced them head-on, and the characters on the plaque above it were written in such…

Just from that one sentence, Jiang Yishen was able to locate this scene in his memory. They had just fought over the matter of borrowing money. The money lent out the day before had been returned with interest, and Jiang Yishen was planning to use this opportunity to make up with Qi Lin. It was the weekend. He had intended to ask Qi Lin out for dinner, but somehow the conversation drifted to plans for Qixi. Jiang Yishen had asked Qi Lin what gift he wanted. Qi Lin said anything would be fine, that…

Qi Lin had a premonition that this would probably be the last retrospective transmission. The closer the transmission node was to the normal timeline, the more he could feel a sense of losing control that was not his own. The things around him were developing little by little into the shape he remembered, flowing unstoppably and irrevocably into the predetermined river. Qi Lin had watched many similar TV shows and films before, about reincarnation, time travel, and time loops, where the protagonists…
