His Hidden Agenda Zhang Li let go of the doorknob and said, "I cooked some silver cod. Come down, we can eat and chat." Gu Deng: "..." Trying to bribe him with delicious food? Though he complained in his heart, Gu Deng still got out of bed. He hadn't tasted Zhang Li's cooking before and didn't have high expectations, but it turned out to be a feast for the senses. After all, Alaska is home to silver cod, and with fresh fish, it's hard to mess up. Gu Deng ate until he was about 70-80% full,…-

First Conflict After posting on Weibo, Gu Deng handed the phone back to Zhang Li, not daring to look at any comments. Not only did he avoid looking, but he also told Zhang Li not to read any negative comments to him. Zhang Li put away the phone but noticed Gu Deng staring at him with a hopeful look. Zhang Li refreshed Weibo and said, "It's only been two minutes, not many people have seen it yet, but someone in the comments is asking if it's really you." "Of course it is!" Gu Deng said, "Take…

Running Away Works Gu Deng hid in the passenger seat until he saw his manager leave, then he finally looked up. "Why are you here?" "I saw online that you were hospitalized, so I came to check on you." "Then why didn't you go up?" "Zhou Bi wouldn't let me." "You know him?" Gu Deng was a bit surprised. "I'm a guest professor at their school, so we've crossed paths." Gu Deng's expression turned cautious. "I didn't know you two were brothers," Zhang Li said. "If I had any connection with…

Reunion at the Bar The hotel conditions were not very good, and trucks kept coming and going outside, so Gu Deng barely slept all night. The next day, after forcing down an awful breakfast and handling the follow-up matters with the insurance company, he signed up for a small tour to Deadhorse. No one recognized him. Wearing a mask and headphones, Gu Deng slept through the whole ride. When he woke again, the scenery outside had completely changed. The mountains and trees had vanished entirely, and even…

Exposed The clouds in the sky grew thicker, gradually painting the glacier a romantic pinkish-purple. Then the sun rose, equally illuminating every inch of land. Gu Deng stripped off his soaked clothes one by one, standing naked in the sunlight while eating a banana. Having not eaten all day, he was so hungry that his stomach felt like it was sticking to his back. He didn't even taste the first banana before grabbing a second one. He began to notice the banana's shape, color, texture, and…

On the Edge of Life and Death Gu Deng felt even more embarrassed. He had written songs for many people: his grandma, his aunt and uncle, his brother, the studio team, and even his manager's cat. Back then, inspiration came easily to him, and he squandered his talent freely. But when he truly wanted to write a song for someone, he found himself unable to write anything. Gu Deng covered his face, suddenly feeling a bit overwhelmed. But this feeling didn't last long. He lifted his head and said, "As…

Like an Animal For a moment, Gu Deng was speechless, and at the same time felt that Zhang Li’s logic was, in fact, completely flawless. “Do you want to try?” Zhang Li asked again. Gu Deng still found it a little disgusting, but he really was a bit tempted too. He hesitated and said, “You already cleaned this whale off, right?” “There’s still a smaller one.” After saying that, Zhang Li dove under the water and led a smaller humpback whale up. It was called a calf, but it was…

Whale Watching Out the Sea Gu Deng made a ridiculous request and waited for Zhang Li to back down in the face of difficulty, but after a very long time, Zhang Li still did not say anything. Gu Deng softened again and was just about to say forget it when Zhang Li suddenly said, “Okay.” “Okay what?” Gu Deng did not quite react in time. Or rather, he had understood, but because it was so absurd, he did not dare believe it was real. Zhang Li said again, “Watch whales.” “I don’t…

Loss of Meaning Gu Deng almost immediately stood up. Long before Zhang Li spoke, he had already wanted to flee countless times. But the moment he got up, he regretted it, because Ali was just walking out from backstage, craning her neck as she searched for him in the crowd. When she kept failing to spot Gu Deng, her eyes gradually dimmed. Gu Deng’s breathing grew faster little by little. The anxious, expectant Ali onstage partly overlapped with the him from many years ago. Back then, he had only…

First Encounter in the Arctic To avoid a moose crossing the road, Gu Deng drove himself and the car straight into the snow. Fortunately, he was not injured, only the engine stalled. In March, blizzards raged along Alaska’s Dalton Highway. The temperature outside could drop to minus thirty degrees Celsius, and there was no signal at all. Only the radio could be used to communicate with nearby drivers. More than ten minutes after Gu Deng sent out a distress signal, there was still no reply on the…
