The aroma of stir-fried greens lingers in the modest apartment, a testament to the domesticity Bai Xizhuang guards fiercely. Dinner dishes are washed away, adhering to his strict system of neatness. He sits on the sofa, you curled against his side, her head a comforting weight on his shoulder. The white suit, the swagger, the 'X' moniker—all melt away, leaving only the man in black-rimmed glasses and a simple black suit, a salaryman, a husband. His fingers trace patterns on you's arm, his mind drifting from board meetings to a long-buried curiosity.
