Chu Zhi woke up early on Saturday. She had been sleeping since she got back last night, all the way until around six in the morning. Chu Zhi opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling for ten minutes, lost in thought. Chu Zhi didn’t know when she had left. She had received a call…

Lu Jiaheng stood stunned for three seconds. His eyes widened bit by bit. He stared in disbelief at the bright red exclamation mark in front of the green bubble. In his twenty-some years of life, this was the first time he’d experienced being blocked by someone. He was blocked. Actually blocked?! The apology he’d spent…

The curtain was tugged a couple times but wouldn’t open due to the hooks. Chu Zhi was startled by the sudden sound and quickly pushed away the person in front of her. Lu Jiaheng stepped back two paces, his expression full of displeasure at being interrupted. Outside was noisy. If Chu Zhi remembered correctly, the…

Chu Zhi’s stage costume had quite a few details. “The Female Shopkeeper” was set in mid-18th century Italy during the height of Rococo fashion culture, when the second use of hoop skirts occurred, paired with tight corsets. The main character Mirandolina wasn’t nobility, so her clothing was actually much simpler – a dark red dress…

Chu Zhi felt something wasn’t quite right about this topic, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.

The elderly Mr. Lu was nearly seventy but still full of vigor. He didn’t live with them, instead staying in a suburban house with a caretaker, contentedly spending his days gardening, playing with birds, and playing chess with neighboring elderly men. It took over an hour to drive there from the city. When Lu Jiaheng…

“My milk foam oolong tea was knocked over by someone just now.” “…” Chu Zhi froze, unconsciously glancing at the wall clock. “You hadn’t finished it yet?” She didn’t even need to check the time—they had met at school in the afternoon, and now night had fallen. Chu Zhi had already returned home and finished…

Although Lu Jiaheng had dominated the social scene for years with many friends, he actually only had a few true close friends. Among childhood friends, there was Cheng Yi, who went off to America to gild himself. There was another who was younger than them but equally terrible in personality – they’d spent over a…

Chu Zhi stood at the check-in area, lost in thought. In the afternoon, after all the event finals were over, the relay was last. Chu Zhi had taken second place in the women’s 200 meters, just barely behind first place. She was assigned to run first leg for the girls’ team. The relay race was…
