Chapter 98
As the days went by, Gu Ran's furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
It seemed there were still people with good taste in this world!
Although Temple Run had been completely ignored when it first launched, its download numbers were now skyrocketing.
By pricing it at less than a dollar, it successfully squeezed into the number one spot on the new games chart.
But even though it cost less than a dollar, the revenue in his backend was steadily ticking up cent by cent.
Because he had a good mentor, he had gone down the route of paid cosmetic skins.
You could play the game perfectly fine without spending a single cent, but you just wouldn't get to experience the gorgeous skins and scenes.
After all, his philosophy was exactly the same as a certain major game studio: create happiness with money!
Staring at the computer, he reached up to touch his face, feeling somewhat speechless.
He didn't know what had gotten into Ye Zhenzhen lately. Ever since she bit his face last time, he had made a huge fool of himself at school.
But because of that, the number of love letters he received had decreased.
Even with graduation approaching, when many people couldn't hold back and wanted to make one last push for romance.
He usually received a pile of them, but now he hadn't gotten a single one. He could only attribute it to the teeth marks on his face...
Regarding this, the aloof older sister felt it was all her doing, blocking out the wild bees and butterflies outside so her younger brother could study in peace.
So much so that lately, she found different excuses every day to take a bite out of his face, and the saliva she left behind was increasing.
Just as he was pondering how many tens of thousands would hit his account next month, a noise suddenly came from the balcony door.
Instantly, Gu Ran reacted like a startled bird and hurriedly tried to dive under the bed.
Gu 'Dog' Ran!
As soon as she entered the room, the girl, who had her hands behind her back ready to inspect, saw the sneaky boy. She immediately let out a delicate shout, trotted over, and grabbed him by the back of his collar.
What are you doing!
Raising her slender eyebrows, Ye Zhenzhen narrowed her eyes and asked.
Caught by the scruff of his neck, Gu Ran awkwardly turned his head. N-nothing...
If you're doing nothing, why are you diving under the desk?
I... was checking for mice.
Gu Ran gave a sheepish smile, moving his lips to speak.
He didn't even need to guess; this girl was here to find an excuse to bite him again.
Once or twice was a reward, but who could handle it happening so often!
He wasn't made of iron. Honestly, was this girl just using him as a teething toy?!
I think you're the big black mouse!
The girl licked her little canine teeth, grabbed his collar, and dragged him forcefully out from under the desk.
As soon as you get back to your room, you just sit at your computer desk. Do you not want your eyes anymore?!
Forcefully pinning him down on the bed, Ye Zhenzhen straddled him like a dragon rider, questioning him from above.
Not want his eyes anymore?
Listen to that, what kind of motherly speech was this.
Gu Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling somewhat ready to accept his fate.
From now on, she could just come directly to bite him without needing to find such a lame excuse.
Seeing the boy lying on the bed like a corpse, the aloof girl blinked and slightly parted her cherry lips.
Wait a minute!
Seeing the girl about to bite down again, Gu Ran's face already started hurting. He hastily crossed his arms in front of him and said with a terrified expression, Ye Zhenzhen, don't push me too far!
Hearing this, the girl raised an eyebrow and didn't answer, just looking at him playfully.
Gu Ran coughed lightly and continued his threat: If you bite me again, I'm going to bite back!
Smack!
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Zhenzhen gave his thigh a hard smack. Then, her slender eyebrows shot up, and she used her cold voice to say, How dare you threaten your older sister? Outrageous!
With that said, she leaned down and bit directly onto the boy's face.
On the side Gu Ran couldn't see, she slightly narrowed her eyes, a gleam of satisfaction mixed in her gaze.
She didn't know why, but lately, she felt like she was becoming more and more of a pervert, actually getting addicted to biting this guy's face.
Could it be...
She quickly shook her head in her mind, firmly believing that she had been infected by her perverted younger brother. It was definitely not her own problem.
Just as her thoughts were running wild, she was suddenly flipped over. Gu Ran, who had been pinned beneath her, turned the tables and straddled her in the blink of an eye.
For a moment, Ye Zhenzhen was a little dazed, not yet understanding the situation before her.
Her large eyes blinked, filled with confusion.
Ye Zhenzhen, you forced me to do this!
As Gu Ran's words fell, he leaned straight down, opened his mouth, and bit into the girl's fair, tender skin.
Mmph!
Ye Zhenzhen's eyes suddenly widened, still unable to believe the reality in front of her.
She had hunted geese all her life, only to finally get her eyes pecked by one...
Feeling the wetness on her face and the hot breath, her heart couldn't help but race. Her eyelashes fluttered as she slowly closed her eyes.
Gu Ran, of course, was not like this girl; he couldn't bear to use any force at all.
He merely held the girl's cheek gently in his mouth. That rich scent of osmanthus rushed straight into his mouth, making him feel a bit lightheaded.
Driven by some inexplicable impulse, his tongue disobeyed his commands and slipped out, lightly licking the girl's face.
Mmm, so soft...
Ye Zhenzhen: !!!
Having just closed her eyes, she was shocked once again by his actions. Ye Zhenzhen, not knowing where she found the strength, forcefully shoved Gu Ran off of her.
Gu 'Dog' Ran!
Sitting up in anger, she reached up to cover her saliva-stained cheek. Ye Zhenzhen's face was flushed red, but her eyes were filled with embarrassment and fury.
Ahem... I say, this was an accident. Do you believe me?
Knowing he had done something wrong, Gu Ran subconsciously felt guilty. He didn't dare look her in the eyes at all, just keeping his head down as he frantically searched for an escape route.
But before he could find one, he was tackled back down again, followed by a wail.
Holy crap, Ye Zhenzhen, don't bite!
L-lighter!
F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, you can't bite there!!!!

June 5th.
No. 1 High School was on holiday today. All the high school seniors were cleaning out their desks, moving all their belongings out of the classrooms.
Meanwhile, the freshmen and sophomores had to set up the examination rooms.
Gu Ran had just finished packing up when Hao Cuiyun walked into the classroom. She clapped her hands and said, Alright, alright, it's our class's turn to take photos. Head downstairs!
She kept a strict face every day, but today, Hao Cuiyun was smiling, which was a rare sight.
Although there was a bit of melancholy in her eyes, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
Even though the students she had taught for three years were graduating today, she had experienced far too many graduation seasons. The sentimental feelings were there, but not overwhelming.
In her heart, there was more of the joy of having an upcoming vacation of nearly three months.
Standing at the podium and looking at the students below, her eyes were full of smiles as she continued, Children, let's go!
Today, the relationship between teachers and students was exceptionally harmonious. The students who were usually mischievous and disruptive were much more obedient.
Unlike the experienced teachers, the sensitive girls unknowingly started to sniffle...
The whole class marched downstairs in a grand procession, standing in front of the main stage and lining up in order.
Because of his height, Gu Ran stood in the back row. He couldn't help but yawn, subconsciously searching for Ye Zhenzhen's figure.
Since the photos were being taken in class order, the girl from the honors class had already gone downstairs. He just didn't know if she was waiting for him on the sports field right now.
Rather than taking a group photo with a bunch of people he only vaguely knew, he was much more inclined to take pictures with that girl, Ye Zhenzhen.
The two of them wearing their school uniforms, captured in the same frame—it would surely hold a special commemorative meaning.
Just as he was looking around, the photographer in front shouted, "Alright, look at the camera! Three, two, one, say cheese!"
Hearing this, Gu Ran turned his head back and looked straight ahead.
Click!
The image was captured, and just like that, his high school era came to a close...
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
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.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...
