Romantic Pessimism In 《Ashore》, the latest chapter Cheng Jiqing had read contained this passage— Romance and pessimism are often chosen by you in a single thought. Before you choose them, they coexist, counterbalancing each other. But once that balance is broken, it’s like a leaking hot air balloon, a cracked Roman vase, and a goldfish that cannot survive out of water. This passage resonated deeply with Cheng Jiqing tonight. “A relationship before crossing the line.” Even…-

Hidden in a Golden House The royal blue roller blinds swayed with a creak. The blinds had been deliberately left partially open. The window, however, had a faulty lock; it had been closed yesterday, only to be blown open again in the middle of the night. Thus, the room looked just as it had when they first rushed in last night. The blinds covered half the window, and the thin morning light filtered in, casting a blue-tinted mist over the pale-yellow wallpaper. Cheng Jiqing squinted against the…-

Hold Me Through a white-painted wooden door, the low murmur of voices could be heard. The restroom was brightly lit, filled with the faint and elegant fragrance of jasmine. Yet, Cheng Jiqing could only smell that bewitching scent. One moment, it reminded her of a vibrant spring night; the next, of a gentle breeze and fine rain. Bai Xin’s voice was pale and adrift, fragile, desolate, and pitiable. “Where?” Cheng Jiqing forced herself to remain calm. Only after asking did she realize…-

Anticipating the night Cheng Corporation Building, CEO's Office. "I've asked. Little CEO Cheng hasn't returned to Nanjing these past few days." Secretary Liu paused, then asked in a low voice, "Should we investigate?" The black fountain pen in Cheng Jing's hand, which she was using to sign documents, stopped. She remained silent for a moment, then said lightly, "Forget it." She somewhat agreed with what she had discussed with Cheng Jiqing the last few times. Cheng Jiqing wasn't a child…-

Downpour Bai Xin’s lips were particularly cool today because it was raining outside—a heavy rain that extinguished the big fire and also lowered the city's temperature. She had come from outside, and stepping suddenly into this air-conditioned place, her body actually felt a bit cold. But when Cheng Jiqing’s kiss landed, she grew hot. The nerves that had been taut with fury just a second before suddenly short-circuited, her mind going blank for an instant. A blankness she had never…-

Unforgettable Through Time经久不忘 | jīngjiǔ bùwàng | Lit. "enduring for a long time and not forgetting" | Fig. unforgettable, lasting. Cheng Jiqing sat with her legs slightly crossed, wearing a dress Bai Xin had found for her in the afternoon—a dark green, waist-cinching dress. It reached above her knees and had an excellent drape. Her skin leaned towards a cool white, and the dark green made it even harder for people to look away. Cheng Jiqing sat on a high stool, facing the…-

Company Meeting Help? Bai Xin slowly chewed over those two words in her mind. She turned sideways, making way for Cheng Jiqing to enter first. “Are you sure you want to help?” Cheng Jiqing didn’t understand; otherwise, why had she come up here? To play in the elevator? She nodded. “Yeah. See if there’s anything I can lend a hand with, something that’s inconvenient for you. I’ll do it.” She wasn’t a cold-blooded person; she couldn’t bring herself to completely ignore…-

Borrowing Something After reading the message, Cheng Jiqing looked around at the staff members passing by from time to time. She even suspected Bai Xin was deliberately messing with her. Or perhaps testing her. She put her phone away. Just as she lifted her foot to step forward, someone came up behind her and called out. "Little CEO Cheng, Director Cheng asks you to come to her office." The speaker was Cheng Jing's secretary. Cheng Jiqing said, "I'll head over after a trip to the…-

Then Let's Get Married “I promised Qin Yufu I’d go. Things shouldn't happen more than twice; after this time, Old Madam Qin’s side will give up too.” After Cheng Jiqing finished speaking, Bai Xin’s gaze cooled. She looked at Cheng Jiqing and said, “Is this the ‘trust’ you were talking about?” Cheng Jiqing said, “Hear me out… So why did you tell me not to go?” Bai Xin could have explained. But just now, Cheng Jiqing’s first sentence had, for some reason, sparked a…-
