An Nhiên's first day at work went more smoothly than she'd expected. She quickly fit in with the design team. Everyone knew she had worked for a big architecture firm abroad, so they were quite curious. But An Nhiên didn't say much about her past. She just focused on her work. So did Khải. At the company, they were boss and employee. Nothing more. Nothing less. But the people around them soon noticed something. Khải paid special attention to An Nhiên's designs. He often went over every…-

Three days later, An Nhiên got a call from her mother. "Have you seen Khải yet?" She was silent. "Yes." "Did he ask about what happened back then?" "He did." "What did you tell him?" "I haven't told him." The other end was silent for a long time. "An Nhiên, six years is long enough." She looked out the window. "I know." "How long do you plan to keep it to yourself?" "I don't know." After the call, An Nhiên opened the wooden box in her cabinet. Inside was a letter. Khải's handwriting…

After that day, Khải and An Nhiên didn't go straight back to the way things had been. They started again from the smallest things. A breakfast. A meeting. A walk home together. A message asking: Have you had dinner yet? This time, their feelings weren't the hurried flutters of youth. They were slower. More careful. But deeper, too. Khải gradually noticed that An Nhiên still had her old habits. She liked to sit near the window. She didn't like her coffee too bitter. Whenever she was…

One year later. The riverside hotel officially opened. On that very day, An Nhiên received a gift. A small box. She opened it. Inside was the old movie ticket. She looked at Khải. "You still have it?" "Yes." "For six years?" "Yes." "You never thought of throwing it away?" Khải looked at her. "Some things don't need to be thrown away." An Nhiên picked up the ticket. On the back was a new line. "This time, don't make me wait alone." She burst out laughing. "Are you proposing to…

Lin Wan'er, legitimate daughter of the house of the Duke of Zhenguo, knelt on the execution platform in the heart of the capital, her body covered in wounds, her hair in tangles. She raised her head to look up at the viewing stand, where Xiao Yichen stood. He was the husband she had loved with all her heart for ten years, the man she had once traded her whole family to protect. Now he stood beside Shen Ruowei, his eyes cold and without the slightest hesitation. "For the crime of plotting against the…-

The first thing Wan'er did was not try to avoid Xiao Yichen. Her past life had taught her that fate always found a way to push the two of them together again in the most ironic circumstances. Instead, she focused on the root of the tragedy: her relationship with Shen Ruowei, who at that time was still her dearest "good sister" at every gathering of young ladies. She remembered clearly that it was Shen Ruowei who had quietly sown the seeds of division between her and her family, using her trust to plant…

She didn't sleep that night. Near dawn, turning the watch under the lamp for the umpteenth time, she noticed a groove on the back thinner than a hair, running along the edge of the case. Not a scratch. A seam. Inside was a memory card so thin it was almost transparent. Her computer read it. A single folder appeared. Final Note. Inside were more than thirty audio files, numbered by date. The first had been created three years ago, twelve days before the accident. She pressed play. Her father's voice…-

A year went by. Anran was busy with her new job. Kai expanded Mingcheng into design and hospitality. They didn't live in the same city. But every night, they made time to call each other. Some days for just a few minutes. Some days until almost dawn. They told each other very ordinary things. A new design. A delicious meal. An exhausting day at work. A sudden rain. Distance was no longer frightening. Because they knew the other was still there. At the end of the year, Anran sent Kai a…-

Just as the hour of the Dog struck, there was a strange noise at the back gate of the courtyard. Ziyun had been waiting. Before long, she brought in a maid in a green dress and locked her in the woodshed at the back, with two old nannies standing guard. It was Luzhu, Shen Ruolan's personal maid, caught red-handed trying to get hold of the spare key to my courtyard. I knew Luzhu's mother was gravely ill, and Ruolan had never been willing to pay for her medicine. In my past life, after that night, Luzhu…-

"Lies! It's all lies!" Lady Feng's shrill voice suddenly shattered the silence. She pulled Shen Ruolan behind her and glared coldly at Luzhu. "A lowly maid like you, slandering your mistress to save your own skin? Someone! Drag her out and give her twenty strokes!" Two servants stepped forward at once. "Wait." Gu Mingxuan said only one word, and everyone stopped. He looked at Lady Feng coolly. "Madam Shen, the matter hasn't been made clear yet. Rushing to punish the witness hardly seems…
