Queen Lin’s lips parted slightly in surprise.
No matter how you looked at him, Xu Mo radiated an aura of—absolute expertise, the kind that screamed "I know it all!"
This man was downright terrifying!
After a brief pause, Queen Lin finally snapped out of her daze and spoke.
"Do you need more practice? I can wait."
Lin An'an swallowed hard.
Xu Mo burst into laughter. "No need."
Queen Lin blinked her phoenix-like eyes and reluctantly let it go.
"Are you ready?"
"Ahem—yeah, yeah."
"Alright, I’ll start then."
"Be gentle. Take it slow."
"Don’t worry, I’ve got plenty of experience—wait, no, I mean, I’m very experienced. Relax."
And then, in the next moment—
Xu Mo began playing the violin.
But even after the intro had passed, Queen Lin still hadn’t started singing.
Xu Mo had no choice but to pause, raising an eyebrow. "Something wrong?"
Queen Lin stared at him in disbelief. "Do you play the violin often?"
Xu Mo chuckled. "When would I have time for that? I haven’t touched it in years. Why, is there a problem?"
What?!
He hadn’t played in years, and yet he hadn’t lost his touch?
What kind of god-tier talent was this?!
Queen Lin was utterly speechless. After a long moment, she managed to croak out, "No problem. Let’s continue."
Comparing yourself to others only makes you want to die!!!
She couldn’t let Xu Mo keep humiliating her like this.
She needed to soothe her fragile, helpless soul with her singing—immediately.
Xu Mo quickly slipped back into the rhythm.
This time, Lin An'an didn’t falter.
Once the intro ended, she seamlessly matched his tempo.
As a professional singer, immersing herself in a song came naturally.
It was the most basic skill of her craft.
This composition was exceptional.
It struck a deep chord within her, resonating instantly.
Of course, as a seasoned artist, Lin An'an could slip into the emotional state much faster than an amateur.
Not that the song was too complex for ordinary people to connect with—
it just wouldn’t hit them as profoundly.
That was the difference between a professional and a layperson.
If there were no distinctions,
everyone in the world would be a singer.
Roughly four minutes later,
the song came to an end.
Lin An'an slowly opened her eyes.
She had been lost in the music, eyes shut in total absorption.
And more than that—
their collaboration had been flawless.
It was nothing short of—
perfect synchronization!!!
Ahhh...
Lin An'an’s chest still heaved slightly after finishing the song.
Her mind was now completely consumed by the song’s message—environmental protection.
Spiritually, she had become the eco-conscious girl depicted in Xu Mo’s composition.
She turned to him and said, "Keep all the earnings from this song. On behalf of everyone who cares for the environment, I thank you."
The song’s significance went far beyond commercial value.
It effortlessly resonated with listeners,
subtly reinforcing their awareness of environmental issues.
That in itself was an immeasurable treasure.
A true masterpiece!
So this time, Queen Lin had no intention of taking a single cent.
But Xu Mo just raised an eyebrow. "Did you forget our agreement?"
Queen Lin froze, then smiled apologetically.
"My mistake. In that case, I’ll donate my share to the environmental bureau."
"Up to you."
Xu Mo didn’t care.
How Lin An'an spent her money was her own business.
He just wanted his own pocket money.
"Then I’ll have my assistant arrange it and pass the song to one of our rising female artists. She’ll be the one to perform it."
Queen Lin’s reputation was undeniable.
As a top-tier figure in the industry,
it was said that a strong leader never had weak followers.
Lin An'an had mentored several stars herself,
many of whom were now red-hot celebrities.
Some had even surpassed her own fame.
Huh? Why didn’t they just go independent?
First, you needed money. Second, connections and resources.
Plus, these artists were groomed by the company,
bound by contracts lasting years—even decades.
If they got too arrogant after hitting it big,
they’d pay the price.
Of course,
even so, most wouldn’t leave even if offered the chance.
Because under Queen Lin’s wing, they thrived.
As for handing the song to someone else,
Xu Mo simply shrugged.
It didn’t matter who sang it.
As long as he got his cut.
In about ten minutes,
the ever-efficient Queen Lin had everything sorted.
Then she pulled out a bottle of premium Armand de Brignac champagne from the fridge.
Naturally, there was a fridge here.
When inspiration struck,
or when a sudden craving hit,
it was convenient to have refreshments on hand.
No need to run downstairs.
Oh, and there was also a bed.
No, don’t get the wrong idea.
It was just for those times when exhaustion set in
during brainstorming sessions.
A place to rest when needed.
Honestly,
the mansion was so massive you could park a cruise ship inside.
"Here, Xu Mo, a toast to you!" Queen Lin handed him a glass of champagne.
Xu Mo accepted it,
and their glasses clinked.
Ting-------------
The crystal-clear chime of fine glassware.
Lin An'an downed hers in one go.
Xu Mo followed suit.
Once the glasses were empty,
Queen Lin immediately refilled them.
"Come on, one more."
Seeing her pour another round—
and filling her own glass just as generously—
Xu Mo sighed in resignation.
Their glasses met again.
Lin An'an knocked hers back without hesitation.
The alcohol was nothing to Xu Mo.
He drained his glass just as quickly.
"Come on, not bad—you’re pretty sturdy. Ah, I mean, your alcohol tolerance is impressive. Here, finish this one, and there’s three more to go."
"...Cough, cough."
Watching Queen Lin refill his glass yet again, Xu Mo let out an awkward cough.
But she completely ignored his subtle protest.
Another glass, another swift gulp.
Since she was the host,
Xu Mo had no choice but to play along and drink up.
Just as Queen Lin was about to repeat the process—
Xu Mo suddenly cut in.
"Aren’t you going to test the other nine songs?"
Pfft!!!!!!!!
The champagne in her mouth
sprayed straight onto Xu Mo’s face.
Absolute legend!!!!!
The look on Lin An'an’s face was priceless.

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress?

Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
