Bellflowers on the Rooftop

In the Thirteenth Month, the balloon flowers on the rooftop never fade.

The day Ji Kaidong returned to the country, a very handsome man saved his life. The man's looks were exactly what Ji Kaidong had always wanted, and he fell for him. He took the initiative and asked for his contact information. When they got to talking later, he discovered that not only was the man's appearance completely to his taste, but their interests and hobbies matched, too.

On the third day after Ji Kaidong returned, a brutal murder took place in the city. A promising young business executive had been brutally slit across the throat. The investigation revealed that the executive often visited a cafe called Thirteenth Month. Ji Kaidong went there with his team to ask some questions, only to discover that the manager was the handsome man who had saved him.

The manager was named Bai Yu. When Ji Kai saw him at the cafe, he thought it was fate that they had crossed paths again. Then he noticed the ring on Bai Yu's left ring finger, and froze.

Bai Yu was married. Ji Kaidong wanted to rein in his feelings and stop going near Bai Yu, but the cases that kept occurring pushed him toward Bai Yu again and again.

That handsome man seemed to have some kind of magic. The victims in the cases of a famous painter's disappearance and a renowned director's bizarre death on a film set all seemed to have intricate connections to Bai Yu.

Ji Kaidong and his team investigated day and night, but the truth they finally uncovered was absurd and heartbreaking.

On the day Ji Kaidong returned to the country, Bai Yu had deliberately waited for him at the place where he had nearly gotten into trouble.

And the supposed similarity in their interests and hobbies was all part of a plan made long ago.

Blurb:

There were three outstanding top-tier alphas in the dorm.

Only Shu Mo was the sole ordinary, unremarkable beta in the dorm.

He had transmigrated into a book. In the story, he was a cannon-fodder simp with a crush on Zhang Yao.

In the world of the novel, he had awakened too late, and had already fallen for Zhang Yao. By a twist of fate, he also became entangled with the dorm's white-moonlight male lead.

He treated the three people in his dorm as friends and cared for them sincerely, never realizing that in the eyes of those lofty alphas, he was nothing more than a lowly, pitiful nobody they could take or leave.

At first, they thought their wife was dispensable, holding themselves aloof and acting superior.

Later, an outsider dog came along and carried their wife off, bringing him back to its nest to cuddle, nuzzle, and lick him.

When they saw their wife nestled obediently in another dog's arms,

one after another, they turned jealous and went mad.
