Chapter 241

Chapter 1: Ripples in an Ordinary Routine Lin Yu was an utterly ordinary office worker, living the standard nine-to-five life. In the city where he lived, traffic surged past and towering skyscrapers stood on every side, making everyone seem like busy ants bustling through the bustling metropolis just to make a living. Lin Yu worked as a creative planner at an advertising agency; although the job was hardly easy, he managed to scrape by. After getting off work that day, Lin Yu stepped into the subway station as usual. The crowd surged, and he found himself swept along in the tide of people until he suddenly noticed a girl. She was wearing a white dress, with her long hair draped over her shoulders and a look of confusion and unease in her eyes. She had been fumbling at the ticket vending machine for a long time, seemingly running into some trouble. Acting on a sudden impulse, Lin Yu walked up to her and asked softly, "Do you need help?" The girl raised her head, a flash of pleasant surprise crossing her eyes, and nodded hurriedly. Lin Yu bought her ticket for her, and the two of them walked into the train car together. Along the way, they exchanged a few words, and Lin Yu learned that the girl was named Su Yao and had just arrived in the city to look for a job. For some reason, Lin Yu felt an inexplicable sense of warmth toward this stranger.
