Xu Mo looked at An Youyi.
An Youyi looked back at him.
After a while.
Xu Mo realized what was going on.
Oh, so it was the Female Dragon Queen using her thigh as a pillow for him.
No wonder.
Xu Mo thought, "No wonder the texture feels different. This is a leap in quality!!"
The Female Dragon Queen's thigh hadn't become overly hard due to long-term exercise.
On the contrary,
it had everything it should have,
and the touch was even nicer than most girls'.
Xu Mo raised his hand and gave a thumbs-up.
While giving the thumbs-up,
Xu Mo couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"Youyi, are you really asking for a raise? If so, just tell me! How much? I'll give you a number------------------Ugh"
Before Xu Mo could finish his sentence,
An Youyi held up one finger and pressed it against his lips.
The Female Dragon Queen then made a shushing gesture.
Xu Mo stared at her like a confused goose,
his mind filled with question marks
and deep shock!!
"What the heck!!"
[What is the Female Dragon Queen doing? Trolling me?]
[What is this supposed to mean?!!]
[Wuuuu---------Qiaoqiao, I'm afraid I won't make it]
[The Female Dragon Queen is going to kill me tonight]
An Youyi's unusual behavior
gave Xu Mo a huge scare.
This is way too exhilarating.
Even novels wouldn't dare write this.
The world's top female assassin falling for me, the domineering CEO?
Holy crap.
Mindblown!!!!
Xu Mo seriously wanted to cry.
This is outrageous, outrageous!!!
How dare she?
How could she do this?
After another moment of silence,
An Youyi finally spoke, "Lin Fan plans to harm you tomorrow. I'll take care of him for you."
Xu Mo's mouth twitched violently.
Huh?????
Did he open the wrong file or something?
The female lead wants to kill the male lead?
What kind of wild development is this?
He had lived three lifetimes and had never seen such a situation!
"Ahem-----Youyi, are you feeling unwell these days? Just say it. If you need a break, take one. I'm a good boss and wouldn't exploit you."
Xu Mo tentatively asked.
An Youyi shook her head, sighed expressionlessly, and continued.
"Should I get rid of Lin Fan for you?"
This time, Xu Mo was truly confused.
[What is the Crooked-mouthed Dragon King plotting?]
[Setting a trap for me?]
[A Hongmen Banquet? Xiang Yu inviting Liu Bang?]
"Don't overthink it. I'm being serious," An Youyi said calmly.
But the more the Female Dragon Queen said this,
the more Xu Mo doubted her.
How could such a good thing happen?
The Crooked-mouthed Dragon King is protected by heaven here.
How could he be eliminated so easily?
An Youyi couldn't reveal that she could hear Xu Mo's thoughts.
Otherwise, with her naturally ditsy personality,
she would have said so long before.
Seeing that Xu Mo was still lost in thought,
An Youyi simply closed her mouth.
Xu Mo also stopped talking.
After an unknown amount of time,
"Does the wound on your hand still hurt?" An Youyi asked.
Xu Mo raised his hand to check.
The toothmarks were still there, but it wasn't a big deal.
Luckily, it was the Female Dragon Queen.
If it were any other female lead, it would be hard to explain.
"No, it's all better," Xu Mo replied.
"Oh," An Youyi responded.
She didn't ask any further.
That's just her personality.
If Xu Mo wanted to talk,
he would.
If Xu Mo didn't want to elaborate, she wouldn't press.
Everything was left to nature.
Resigned to the situation,
Xu Mo felt like sitting on pins and needles.
He couldn't fathom what the Female Dragon Queen was up to.
In contrast, An Youyi
had closed her eyes.
Xu Mo waited for a while.
Seeing that An Youyi didn't move,
he stretched out his hand to wave in front of her.
The Female Dragon Queen remained unresponsive.
Xu Mo tried to keep calm breathing and slightly raised his head.
He moved his head slowly,
like a thief.
This time, Xu Mo experienced what it meant to have a guilty conscience.
Just as he thought he could get up,
a slender hand reached out
and pushed him back down.
"I can't believe it, didn't she fall asleep?" Xu Mo exclaimed.
An Youyi didn't even lift an eyelid.
Xu Mo had already been very careful,
yet he was still caught.
He was utterly speechless inside.
But then he thought,
the Female Dragon Queen is who she is.
If he wasn't caught, that would be the real anomaly.
Xu Mo inwardly cursed again
before lying back down.
[Good heavens!!]
[Since the Female Dragon Queen won't let me leave, that's fine]
[After all, I'm not exactly a gentleman anyway]
[I'll take your lap pillow]
Xu Mo adopted an attitude: a dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water.
He closed his eyes and rested.
Soon,
Xu Mo's breathing became steady,
and he fell asleep.
With the golden bell and iron cloth shirt provided by the system,
even if it's not perfect, it wouldn't harm him.
Besides, he had immunity to poison.
What was there to be afraid of?
If the Female Dragon Queen tried something, it would be even better.
This barely holding-it-together plot
was something he no longer wanted to endure.
Maybe if he died here,
the system would calculate it as completing the mission.
Opening his eyes, he'd return to the real world.
It would be quite satisfying.
Not long after Xu Mo fell asleep,
An Youyi opened her eyes.
Looking at Xu Mo who was sleeping soundly,
a rare hint of a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
That was the extent of her expression.
"Sleep peacefully."
"As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you. This is my promise to you, and also my promise to myself."
"Whoever wants to kill you, I will kill them for you."
An Youyi murmured quietly.
If Xu Mo could hear these words,
he would undoubtedly exclaim.
What a top-tier bodyguard this is!!!
But Xu Mo slept soundly.
All was quiet through the night.
The next morning,
Xu Mo opened his eyes and stretched his arms.
He slept wonderfully.
Completely rested until morning.
Perhaps it was because the pillow had changed,
or so Xu Mo thought.
Snap.
Almost instantly,
Xu Mo realized it wasn't the pillow.
It was the Female Dragon Queen.
Oh, and by the way,
An Youyi had a special, pleasant scent about her.
It was very calming.
Xu Mo speculated it might be due to her martial arts training.
That aside,
when Xu Mo raised his hand,
he touched a large, soft area.
The Female Dragon Queen's closed eyes opened accordingly.
She met Xu Mo's gaze as he woke up.
The two stared at each other for a few minutes.
Xu Mo chuckled awkwardly and pulled his hand back.
This time, when he tried to sit up,
An Youyi didn't stop him.
Before the Female Dragon Queen could speak,
Xu Mo apologized first.
"Sorry----------------I didn't mean it."
An Youyi shook her head, her tone calm: "I wish you did."
Xu Mo: ------------------
What should he say?
What should he say?
Female Dragon Queen, be more aware!
You're being taken advantage of, you know.
"Did you sleep well last night?"
"Yes, it was very comfortable," Xu Mo nodded and honestly replied.
An Youyi: "Then it's my turn."
Xu Mo:?????????
You want a lap pillow too?
Soon Xu Mo realized this wasn't about the lap pillow.
It was just a simple greeting.
------------------------------------------
Alright, goodnight, everyone~~~~

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

Cashback: +$2,880】 【Dropped $14,396 on in-game skins? Special reward unlocked: A brand-new Porsche Panamera!】 Luxury cars, penthouses, corporate shares, financial empires… College life was all about living freely and doing whatever he pleased! … When the adorably naive academic genius faced family medical bills and financial struggles, Su Bai waved his hand dismissively: "Your future is on me." "Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…

Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.
