Li Mu and Fang Rong emerged from the conference room and descended the stairs, spotting Xu Lin standing in the yard. Xu Lin was looking down, idly fiddling with the leaves of a shrub. The droplets of water on the leaves shattered with each touch, falling one by one and moistening his fingers. Li Mu was surprised. "Xu Lin, what are you doing here?" Xu Lin turned his head, his gaze unfocused for a moment before settling on Li Mu. "Oh, I saw you two were taking a while, so I came to check." "How…-

The mention of death had frightened the child. Xu Lin quickly reassured him. "No, that's not it at all. You're fine. Don't be scared." "I'm not scared." Xiao Zhao sniffled. "I'm not afraid to die. If I die, my father will come get me, and I'll see him again. I'm just worried that if I die, my mother will be left all alone." His voice broke. "I'm afraid she'll be sad." Xu Lin's heart ached at those words. He took a quiet breath, reached out, and gently patted the top of Xiao Zhao's head. His voice…

In the darkened dormitory, the sound of snoring filled the room. Xu Lin lay awake, his eyes wide open, his knees drawn to his chest as he sat at the head of the bed, staring at the water tracing paths down the windowpane. The rain had fallen all night. The next morning, after the daily ten-kilometer run, Xu Lin was wiping off sweat when Li Mu walked over. Taking in the dark circles under his eyes, he asked with concern, "What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?" Xu Lin had kept his eyes open all night…

Xu Lin stood still for a moment, then walked in and closed the door. Expressionless, he stepped over the debris and slowly approached Ji Jinxuan, stopping in front of him. The sound of blood dripping on the floor was stark in the quiet room. Xu Lin reached out, grabbed Ji Jinxuan's sleeve, and pulled his hidden right hand into view. The palm was a bloody mess. Beneath the fresh, grotesque wound from the glass were layers of old scars, all in the same place. How could Xu Lin forget? He had…

A 93% compatibility score. Between an Alpha and an Omega, the implication was clear. Li Mu's face flushed red from all the teasing, practically dripping with embarrassment. Xu Lin stood frozen, the enthusiastic reactions of those around him making him uncomfortable. Li Mu's face burned. He had been smiling awkwardly until he caught a glimpse of Xu Lin's expression. He paused. A few seconds later, he waved off the people joking with him. "Alright, alright, enough prying. Go do your own work." Li…

Ji Jinxuan stood four or five meters away, watching them from a distance. Li Mu was startled by the sudden appearance, and Xu Lin as well. He almost instinctively turned his head away, avoiding any chance of meeting Ji Jinxuan's gaze. The wind stopped. The rustling leaves fell silent. An eerie stillness descended. Li Mu glanced back at Xu Lin, catching a subtle shift in his expression. He paused thoughtfully, then took the initiative to greet Ji Jinxuan. "Chief Ji." Ji Jinxuan did not respond.…

Li Mu's expression faltered at those words. His lips parted, then closed again. In the end, he only offered a bitter smile and said nothing. A week later. The medical team arrived on time. A large crowd filled the hall. Xu Lin, like everyone else, stood in line with his form, waiting for his turn. The queue was long, heads bobbing like a swarm of black ants. The teams lined up in groups. Xu Lin had Li Mu in front of him and Fang Rong behind him. With familiar faces around, they chatted idly to…

The vibrating phone startled Pu Sha awake from where he had fallen asleep on his desk. It was eleven at night. Still groggy, he glanced at the screen. A video call. All sleep vanished, and he smiled as he answered. "Xu Lin?" On the screen, Xu Lin's smiling face appeared. "Teacher, sorry it took me so long to call." Xu Lin had lost weight and gotten a bit tanner, but he looked energetic. Pu Sha was overjoyed. "It's fine. How are you doing now?" "I'm doing well." Despite his words, there was a…

Pu Sha did not speak. Ji Jinxuan waited patiently. After the dizziness passed and his senses returned, Pu Sha's legs gave out. He gripped the edge of the table and slowly sat back down in his chair. He did not know what he was thinking. After a long while, he finally spoke. "I don't know where he is." The same story. "Fine. So you're determined to stick with that." Ji Jinxuan pulled over a chair and sat down casually, his hands folded on his knees, his posture unhurried. His voice was low.…

Ji Jinxuan drifted in and out of consciousness, unable to tell day from night. Most of the time, he slept, dreaming strange, disjointed dreams. He dreamed of Xu Lin, of him howling in rage in a cage, of him crying. He dreamed of a dark figure smashing a glass photo frame in despair. Glass flew everywhere, shards cutting his skin. Blood spread beneath his feet, slowly corroding the strange wedding photo, swallowing the two people in it. Swarms of paper dragonflies were drawn by the scent of blood,…
