The boundless night enveloped the entire city of Haicheng. At night, it was a place of extravagance and debauchery, with countless luxury cars parked along the roadside, surrounded by groups of young men and women, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere. Yet, amidst the neon lights, a quiet and gentle little bar was open.

The lamp wick, weary from a long day, wanted to feel dizzy.

I didn't want to go to a noisy bar, and I was afraid of getting drunk and being taken advantage of if I went alone. This little bar called [Twilight] was perfect. There was a small sign at the door that said it was open from 12:00 AM to 12:00 AM.

Nan Yu went inside.

So tired.

He came from this world as an infant.

Last year, it was discovered that he was a fake young master, and now his life is a complete mess. He has four older sisters, so to put it bluntly, he is Yaozu, the one who was switched at birth. As you can imagine, if he wants to leave, he can go out and wander around picking up trash.

But in this broken world, as long as you leave the Lin family, you will start over, and each time you start over, your memories will be half-full and half-absent. You will experience it once, twice, three times.

This is the fourth time.

I don't want to start over, so I can only wait it out with the Lin family.

The Lin family believed it was all his fault, causing their biological son to wander outside for nineteen years. The Chen family was poor, but Chen Xu, like him, was the crown prince of his family, spoiled rotten, before they recognized each other.

His parents only earned a combined salary of four thousand yuan, but he insisted on buying a pair of shoes that cost more than three thousand yuan. Chen's parents couldn't bear to see Chen Xu suffer, and they were willing to sell their daughter to buy them.

He took the eldest son's dowry money and gave it all to Chen Xu.

They took it for granted that they would raise him.

He was extremely vain. Later, he got a girlfriend and spent money like water. He wanted to buy her the latest iPhone, but his family didn't have the money, so he threatened to kill himself and ended up actually jumping off a building.

When they went to the hospital, the blood bank was short of blood. Although blood from immediate family members could be life-threatening, the situation was urgent, so they had to have their blood drawn for testing. As a result, none of the family members matched.

Fortunately, blood was transferred from other hospitals in time.

Everyone knows that Chen Xu is not their biological son.

Chen's parents were so anxious that they fainted, but they had no connections and didn't know where to find their biological son. After discussing it, they decided to have another child, and she gave birth to twins, both sons.

Chen's parents were overjoyed.

Chen Xu's status plummeted, and he became resentful. He then sought out his biological parents, and eventually succeeded in finding them. The Lin family then learned that Lin Xun had been switched at birth.

They also learned that Chen Xu grew up in a poor mountain village and his family couldn't even afford an iPhone, which led to his son jumping off a building.

The Chen family was terrified of Chen Xu and didn't want Lin Xun anymore. They felt that they couldn't afford to raise a child from a wealthy family, so they focused all their attention on their two twin sons.

Thus, Chen Xu felt guilty towards the Lin family.

Lin Xun, also known as Deng Xin, is now neither a person at home nor outside.

His older sisters didn't have much affection for him either.

When Lin was a child, his family was not wealthy. Because he was the only son, he was often given preferential treatment, while his daughter was wronged. Later, he rose to prominence by riding the wave of the times, but his parents still favored sons over daughters.

His older sisters all had opinions about him.

No matter how much the lamp wick tries to please, it's useless.

The Lin family parents favored their son even more than the Chen family couple.

Now that they've created a real and a fake young master, Chen Xu is quite popular with his older sisters. Deng Xin is really unlucky; the Chen family doesn't want her, the Lin family complains, and she wants to live alone. This damn broken world keeps rewinding.

The rooms on the second floor have also been moved to the first floor.

He usually stays at school and tries not to go home. His monthly income has also dropped from 1 million to 4 million. It's not that I'm afraid he'll starve to death, it's just an insult. The rewind times were too many, and the turtle fell into a deep sleep.

Xiao Dengxin can only work part-time on weekends now.

Chen Xu went from being poor to becoming rich overnight. The change in his status blinded him. He changed girlfriends, drove a sports car every day, and spent every night in the arms of women.

Every now and then he would find the lamp wick and insult it.

To fill the void in his sensitive heart.

Because he had transmigrated from a young age, Nan Yu's personality remained stable; he was always well-behaved, but reality is always cruel.

Lin's parents felt that he was not their biological son and should atone for their sins.

It's alright, though. They didn't forcibly kick him out. They paid his tuition, but didn't give him living expenses. When he came home, they weren't very fierce, just ignored him. They transferred all their love, care, and concern to their own son.

Their actions may be understandable.

After all, they've been close for over a decade, and Nan Yu has called them "Mom" and "Dad" for over a decade.

Rewinding half of his memories, he was told not to invest too much emotion, but disappointment was still unavoidable.

Yesterday was Chen Xu's birthday; it was his first birthday at the Lin family home.

Chen Xu was born on the same day as him.

But he's not here this year.

The Lin family held a grand celebration. As the fake young master, Nan Yu could only watch helplessly from the sidelines, secretly shedding tears, and he couldn't be discovered, for he was also afraid of losing face.

Feeling pent up with grievances, he passed by this small tavern and, remembering his alcohol allergy—he could get drunk just from the smell—thought he'd like to come in and take a nap, somewhere where there were people around.

I hope I can be more energetic tomorrow.

I walked in with my head down, and only looked up at the bartender after I sat on the high stool. The man was wearing a white shirt with one button undone at the collar, probably for easier mixing, since a full shirt would be too tight. His sleeves were also rolled up to his elbows. His eyes and brows showed the maturity that comes with experience, making him look young but not old, just right.

"Welcome, new guest! What would you like to drink?"

The moment the man spoke, his voice carried an elegant, slightly cool fragrance, and Nan Yu was intoxicated. It wasn't because of his voice or his appearance, but simply because she was a little drunk.

Her eyelids were drooping slightly, and she tried to keep her voice steady, "What's wrong with you?"

The man smiled slightly, pointed to the menu, and began to explain, but Nan Yu didn't hear a word he said. She was staring at his well-defined hands, her eyes glued to them. So beautiful.

Which flavor do you prefer?

The man noticed that Nan Yu was distracted, introduced a few items, and then asked with a smile.

Dengxin felt dizzy and realized he was about to get drunk. He stared at the menu and randomly pointed to something. He didn't understand it, but he thought the color looked like fruit juice.

Nan Yu is severely allergic to alcohol.

He can get drunk just by looking at pictures of wine, without even smelling or drinking it. But if you don't tell him it's wine, he's fine. He can't experience wine culture and therefore doesn't understand wine.

Men have a unique charm when they mix drinks, attracting passersby. The five stools in front of the bar are quickly filled, but another bartender serves them.

Mix the ingredients according to the specified proportions.

She pushed the bottle of wine towards him and smiled at the boy.

Nan Yu grinned, her cheeks flushed.

Not every guest who wants to drink needs to have their drink warmed up. He only serves ten guests a day, depending on fate and chemistry.

The other guests were handed over to another bartender.

Nan Yu was his last guest of the day.

This guest was a bit strange; he seemed drunk even before taking a sip. Dengxin looked at the wine, which resembled a soft drink, and wanted to try it, but he didn't dare gamble with his life. He got closer to the glass and smelled it, which made him even more dizzy.

Her face flushed, her eyes glazed, and she braced herself against the bar counter, asking Wen Zhuo, "Is this place open 24 hours a day?"

Wen Zhuo nodded.

Lampwick: "If I spend very little and want to stay here all night, will you kick me out?"
