With a loud “bang.”
Liu Yuan returned to her room, closing the door behind her. The look of disdain on her face vanished instantly, leaving only her heart pounding a little faster.
It wasn’t that she was petty—after all, that so-called older brother wasn’t even allowed to glance her way.
The key was…
It had just struck exactly 6:00 PM.
She received a notification.

【The wearer is under the intense gaze of a brother full of **. What if his evil intentions grow stronger… How can a Tier Three you resist a Tier Five him?】
【Break his gaze immediately!】
【Break his gaze immediately!】
【Breaking the gaze will trigger the Promotion Adventure!】
That was why the earlier scene had unfolded.
Liu Yuan leaned against the door, her mind replaying Su Qi’s gaze from moments ago.
Although she usually didn’t care much about what she wore…
Su Qi wouldn’t really do something like that, right?
With suspicion, she checked the card’s attributes again.
【Promotion Adventure: Make the target person look at this equipment for no more than five seconds per time, continuously for seven days. (0/7)】
【Current Target: Su Qi】
At that moment, a notification tone—one she cared about deeply—interrupted her thoughts.
She hurriedly pulled out her phone.
【I want to sleep: Little Yuanwei, Little Yuanwei, send me a photo to see.】
She glanced down at herself, feeling conflicted.
“Should I send a photo to my brother…” Liu Yuan muttered softly, her cheeks warming.
She walked over to the wardrobe mirror, scrutinizing herself carefully.
Though she wasn’t tall, her legs were well-shaped, and the texture of her white stockings made them look even more slender and graceful.
Biting her lip, she hesitated.
“Well… he is my brother, so it should be fine, right…”
Liu Yuan gave herself a pep talk.
【Iris: If it’s brother… ＞_＜】
【Iris: It’s okay…】
Two completely opposite attitudes.
There’s a saying: a goddess isn’t cold or unapproachable; she’s just selectively cold and unapproachable to you.
What eighteen-year-old girl hasn’t felt a crush?
Liu Yuan launched the camera app on her phone, adjusted the angle, and took a few half-body shots in front of the mirror.
After finishing, she carefully picked the best one, her finger hovering over the send button for a moment before finally tapping it.
【Iris: Brother, look… ＞_＜】
After sending the message, Liu Yuan immediately tossed the phone onto the bed and flopped down herself.
Burying her face in the pillow, her ears burning bright red.
“Ahhh… what am I doing!” she screamed silently in her heart, feeling like she was about to burst into flames.
Her phone vibrated once. After a few seconds of hesitation, Liu Yuan reached out and grabbed it.
【I want to sleep: Beautiful.jpg】
Her face flushed even deeper.
[Iris: I… I’m not! I just promised my brother, that’s all…]
Liu Yuan stared at the picture on her screen, a smile unconsciously tugging at the corner of her lips, her heart feeling sweet and warm.
She hugged her phone, lying on her bed, daydreaming about what her brother might look like. They chatted for quite a while, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
……
Early the next morning, Liu Yuan was woken up by her alarm clock.
Rubbing her eyes, she suddenly remembered she had to attend a special class at school today, so she hurriedly got out of bed.
After washing up, she changed into her school uniform, quickly ate some breakfast, and got ready to head out.
It was only then that she noticed her ‘Daily Adventure’ had refreshed.
[Daily Adventure: Greet the first ‘human’ you see today with a friendly ‘Good morning.’]
[Current Target: Su Qi]
[Daily Adventure Reward: Use of Special Passive Ability ① for today, permanent +1 to equipment strength, and a temporary 100% boost to base attributes today.]
Just at that moment, Liu Yuan’s eyes met Su Qi’s as he stepped out the door.
Huh?
Why was Su Qi up so early?
To be honest, she felt like she hadn’t seen ‘morning Su Qi’ in two or three years.
Oh well.
It’s just a simple ‘Good morning.’
Nothing too much to ask for.
Trading a little permanent strength? Totally worth it.
Besides, today was the first day of the ‘Special Class.’
A 100% boost to base attributes might bring some unexpected benefits.
And all she had to do was say two words.
Liu Yuan looked at Su Qi, who was still rubbing his eyes, and said, “Good morning.”
……
Switching to Su Qi’s perspective.
As mentioned before, Su Qi was a struggling web novel author with an irregular schedule.
He had pulled an all-nighter yesterday to finish something sacred.
To put it nicely: escaping the outline.
To put it bluntly: abandoning a half-finished story.
No choice—ninety-nine percent of writers only do it to scrape by, earning barely any money.
Now that his special talent was beginning to show, he no longer had the time or energy to keep up this job.
A real man born under heaven shouldn’t be stuck beneath others for long.
So, already half-dazed from exhaustion, Su Qi opened his door to check the fridge for something to eat before crashing back to sleep.
Then, he saw his younger sister in the school uniform of the Enforcer Academy, wearing white stockings, looking at him.
Her expression was still unreadable, cold and distant.
But then she blurted out…
“Good morning.”
Huh?
The same sister who only made eye contact once a day and had looked at him with disdain just yesterday was now saying good morning?
Oh no!
Am I getting old?
That can’t be right—he was only twenty-four.
Had pulling an all-nighter made him hallucinate?
Was he about to drop dead?
Forget it.
No need to eat either.
Su Qi forced a weak smile, “Uh… goo…d morning?”
Then, with a bang, he shut the door.
And fell straight into bed.
Better to keep this dog’s life safe.
……
Liu Yuan stared at Su Qi’s flustered expression as he hurriedly closed the door, stunned for a moment before a smile spread across her face.
She hadn’t expected that a simple “Good morning” would scare Su Qi so much.
[Daily Adventure: Completed]
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
