Departure

The next day.

Ye Shuang woke up early. He first gently moved Bai Yuyou's snow-white thigh that was pressing down on him, then got up and began to wash up.

"Meow." Hearing the noise, Yi Wan trotted over happily. After sidling up to Ye Shuang, it didn't forget to lower its body and stretch.

"Morning, Yi Wan."

After greeting it, Ye Shuang went to the living room and opened his suitcase to double-check the things he needed to bring. After all, they were going abroad, so clothes and the like couldn't be left behind.

"Hmm, looks like everything is here..." After checking and confirming there were no issues, Ye Shuang noticed Bai Yuyou's beige suitcase. He had told her to check her luggage thoroughly last night, but he wasn't sure if she had actually listened.

Sometimes, this girl could be quite scatterbrained.

Thinking of this, Ye Shuang opened Bai Yuyou's suitcase to do a quick check. "Hmm..."

"As for clothes." Ye Shuang looked at Bai Yuyou's dresses and counted them briefly. He then glanced at the girl's bras, which were also perfectly fine. As for panties, she could just wear disposable ones.

"Huh?" Just then, Ye Shuang noticed that one of Bai Yuyou's bras seemed to have a loose thread.

He rummaged through the nearby cabinet, took out a needle and thread, and began to mend it.

It was clearly the most ordinary and everyday action, but the faint fragrance on it made Ye Shuang's fingers stiffen slightly. Should he... not be doing this?

Ye Shuang admitted that his mindset was quietly shifting.

"Forget it, I'll just buy a few new sets." In the end, Ye Shuang chose to put the bra back into the suitcase. After briefly organizing it and zipping it back up, he looked at Tang Keke's suitcase. It was covered in various anime stickers, completely hiding its original color.

"I'll just skip checking Keke's suitcase." Ye Shuang shook his head. After all, it wouldn't be good if he saw some symbol of the strong inside.

"It seems I can't be of any help at all." Ye Shuang looked at Bai Yuyou's suitcase. Everything inside was well-prepared, to the point where he didn't even need to open it and double-check. He had to admit, it was probably because she had grown up.

There were many things he no longer needed to worry about. Even with freshly washed underwear, Bai Yuyou knew to hang them up to dry herself.

"I should probably change my perspective too," Ye Shuang muttered to himself.

At this time, Yi Wan was lying on the suitcase, gnawing on the zipper pull with its teeth.

Thump.

"Meow." After getting flicked on the head, Yi Wan licked its nose.

"It's about time. I should go wake them up," Ye Shuang said, glancing at the time.

Less than an hour later, the three of them stood by the roadside, pushing their suitcases.

"So sleepy... Are we taking a private jet this time too?" Tang Keke yawned, but still asked curiously.

"No," Ye Shuang smiled. "How could we travel by private jet every time? Last time was purely because we went to an island, and Sister Chen Qin's family island has a private airport, so it was just more convenient."

"Oh, oh."

Meanwhile, Bai Yuyou stood quietly beside Ye Shuang. She looked as if she hadn't slept enough, with a cowlick sticking up slightly.

As they were talking, a black sedan drove up from a short distance away.

The rear window rolled down, and Chen Qin, wearing sunglasses, revealed a smile. "Morning, get in."

"Why did we split into so many cars?" Ye Shuang asked.

"We just used whatever cars the company had available." Chen Qin was sitting in the back seat. After Ye Shuang got in, she leaned closer and linked arms with him, her slimes pressing completely against him.

"Ah Ye, I think I'm a little sleepy."

"Then why don't you sleep for a bit?"

"Okay." As soon as Chen Qin spoke, she rested her head against Ye Shuang's neck.

At this time, Bai Yuyou was sitting on Ye Shuang's other side. Seeing this scene, she looked at Ye Shuang, and then, mimicking the action, rested her head on his other shoulder.

Ye Shuang: "..."

With his shoulders weighed down and mingling fragrances wafting to his nose, Ye Shuang coughed lightly and had no choice but to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Tang Keke noticed this scene and couldn't help but let out a wow.

However, she covered her mouth, not daring to spout nonsense for the time being.

Upon arriving at the airport, the driver also got out and took down their luggage. "President Chen, do you need any further assistance?"

"Yawn—" Chen Qin got out of the car and yawned, then said, "No, it's fine. Just head straight back to the company."

"Understood."

At this point, Bai Yuyou was still half-asleep. She just held onto the corner of Ye Shuang's clothes with one hand while keeping her eyes closed, giving off an adorable appearance of sleeping while standing.

Noticing this, Chen Qin didn't say much. Instead, she smiled and asked Ye Shuang, "Ah Ye, what did you guys have for breakfast?"

"We haven't eaten. Figured we'd eat at the airport." Ye Shuang shook his head.

After all, they had bought business class tickets, and the exclusive waiting lounge provided breakfast service.

"Works for me."

"Breakfast..." Bai Yuyou opened her eyes, seemingly perking up a bit.

"Looks like she's starving." Ye Shuang couldn't help but rub his nose.

Then he and Chen Qin exchanged a glance, both of them smiling.

Only Bai Yuyou looked around, her beautiful eyes still a bit dazed. "?"

"Little Yu seems to have arrived too," Tang Keke said at this moment, holding her phone. She then showed a photo to Ye Shuang and the others. "Right here."

"She's over at the waiting lounge. Let's head there first."

"Let's go!"

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, the two fish were sitting in massage chairs, leisurely eating breakfast.

"They're here." An Shiyi was slurping noodles, and then her gaze seemed to catch something—over by the entrance, Ye Shuang was leading Chen Qin and the others inside.

"Oh." An Shiyu, who was watching a show, looked uninterested, but still raised her head to follow An Shiyi's line of sight.

"Morning, Little Yu and Xiaoyi." Upon seeing the two fish, Ye Shuang greeted them.

"Weird." An Shiyu felt that Ye Shuang's way of addressing them was weird. Just Little Yu alone was fine, but calling them together sounded like he was addressing little children.

"What's weird?" Ye Shuang asked.

"..."

"Weird?" An Shiyi looked at An Shiyu. "Aren't you quite little..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she expertly arched her body to dodge an elbow strike.

"It's nothing," An Shiyu said expressionlessly.

Suddenly, the girl seemed to notice a gaze—looking up, An Shiyu noticed that Bai Yuyou was staring intently at the BBQ pork bun in her hand.

An Shiyu moved the bun to the left, and Bai Yuyou's head followed.

Then, with a mischievous streak, she moved it to the right, and the girl's gaze followed closely behind.

"Here," An Shiyu extended her hand.

"Thank you."

"Next time, let's just eat breakfast before heading out." Ye Shuang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Then, he seemed to notice something. Not far away, a short elderly man and a tall young woman were walking over, the tall and the short creating a stark contrast.

That was...

Grandpa An Shi and An Shi Yaya?

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
