[Next short story, release date to be determined]
Tao Xuezhi never expected to run into Jian Chiye as soon as he returned to the country.
On a busy city street, they passed each other without even saying, "Long time no see."
What he never expected was that four hours later, they would meet again at the same dinner table.
Passing dishes, pouring water, handing over a napkin.
No one knew that each of these seemingly casual gestures made Tao Xuezhi's heart pound with anxiety.
Just like ten years ago, on the day Tao Xuezhi was brought back from the orphanage and saw Jian Chiye for the first time.

Everyone knew that Jian Chiye, president of the Wanshi Group, was a prickly young master with a terrible temper and no patience whatsoever.
In the conference room on Monday, the man's face was dark as he tore into everyone's proposals. He was about to take things even further when a phone call suddenly came in.
The phone was still connected to the computer by a data cable, and the sound on speakerphone echoed throughout the room.
The voice on the other end was very reserved and gentle. After a long silence, it finally offered one stingy sentence: "It's snowing today."
Jian Chiye's expression remained dark. Everyone thought he would hang up without mercy, but the next second...
The man who made everyone nervous at all times unexpectedly answered with a patient "Mm," then imitated the other person's tone and asked in a deeply restrained voice, "Then have you put on my coat?"
