Back in the bedroom, Chi Yin pulled out her phone and messaged each of Qiao Ziman’s friends to ask where she had gone. Every reply confirmed that Qiao Ziman hadn’t contacted any of them. She couldn’t have gone back to her parents’ home, could she? It just wasn’t possible. Then, Chi Yin remembered someone—Jiang Shu. Jiang Shu replied, Anger flared in Chi Yin’s eyes as she shot off another message, Jiang Shu responded, Five minutes later, another message came through: A week? What…-

"I want to cry in front of you." Qiao Ziman’s heart wavered, and so did she. She pressed her heel down, grounding herself firmly. With an air of pride, she lifted her chin slightly. "Alright, then." Before leaving, Chi Yin and Qiao Ziman returned to the rental apartment to pack up a few things. There wasn’t much—just a single set of bedding and a few changes of clothes. These were the only things Qiao Ziman had secretly brought from home later on. Chi Yin scanned the cramped and rundown…

“I’ll never betray her!” Jiang Shu! Chi Yin took a long, deep breath, lowered her head, and furiously jabbed at her phone screen: Jiang Shu ran over, squinting at the screen. Then she began circling around Chi Yin's hospital bed teasingly. “Tsk, tsk. You think adding two exclamation marks can scare me, sis?” Chi Yin’s face grew serious, fixing Jiang Shu with an unwavering stare. Jiang Shu shrank back instinctively, retreating a few steps. “Sis, glaring at me won’t work! I absolutely…

Tears streamed down uncontrollably. This was just too much. Qiao Ziman wiped her eyes as she furiously scribbled three words in her notebook: Little Mute. Her pen had pressed so hard that it punctured the paper, leaving a deep ink mark on the second page. It was clearly Little Mute’s fault. Why was it that she was always the one getting bullied? And, of course, she just couldn’t resist the temptation. How I hate it! She pressed her lips tightly and wept silently as tears trickled down her cheeks,…

During the day, whenever visitors came by, Qiao Qiao would act affectionate enough. But once they were alone, her demeanor turned distinctly cold, even distant. A few times, Chi Yin had even woken up late at night to find Qiao Ziman standing quietly at her bedside, eyes gleaming faintly in the dark, as if plotting to devour her whole. And worse, Qiao Qiao was constantly chatting on her phone with someone, even smiling—actually smiling! In truth, Chi Yin knew exactly why Qiao Qiao was angry. After all,…

Qiao Ziman drove toward the Chi family home, her heart in turmoil. The closer she got, the stronger the unease clawed at her chest. A police car, sirens wailing, sped past her in the opposite direction. Her heart slammed hard against her ribcage. Her grip on the steering wheel tightened. It’s fine. It’s definitely not Yin Yin. She tried to comfort herself, though the words felt hollow. Then she turned the final corner, entering the villa complex. And there—right in front of her—was a house…

Elvis’s vision went dark as she collapsed unconscious. Seeing that, the three people who had dramatically fallen to the ground quickly stood up, brushing off their clothes. The police stared at them in disbelief. “What the—?” “You really went too far,” one officer said sternly, crouching down to check Elvis’s injuries. “If something serious happens, you'll be in trouble too.” Qiao Ziman shot a cold glance at Elvis’s unconscious figure and reassured the officer calmly, “Relax.…

She took a breath. “About your childhood—do you still refuse to forgive me? I never meant to abandon you. Back then, my career was taking off; I wanted to wait until I was on steadier ground before bringing you home. Who could’ve predicted the fire?” Chi Yin latched onto the critical detail. “What do you mean, your health? What happened?” Chi Qilan fell silent for a moment before speaking in a measured tone. “Maybe I overdid it with social engagements these past couple of years. My stomach…

A faint breeze slipped through the window’s cracks, rustling the curtains. The tiny, flickering embers suddenly flared up, red tongues of fire stretching and twisting like a beast breaking free from its chains. The flames licked upward, hungrily climbing the walls and spreading rapidly to the ceiling. Sparks rained down onto the plush wool carpet, igniting its highly flammable fibers. The sudden burst of fire leaped toward a pile of tangled electrical cords. Crackle! Pop! Sparks exploded. In mere…

The weekend arrived, and Elvis had been invited over to the Chi family home. When the doorbell rang, Jiang Shu put down her homework and bounded over to open the door. “Sis, are you back?” she called excitedly. But the moment the door opened, her bright smile vanished, replaced by a cold glare. “Oh, it’s you.” Inside, Chi Qilan heard the commotion. “Who’s at the door?” she demanded. “Where are your manners?” Elvis inclined her head politely, handing over the gifts in her arms.…
