Dislike Maxed Out

"What's the matter?" Tang Manman asked timidly.

"I'm not interested in studying. Why don't you teach me something else?"

"Like how to get along with girls, for example."

As he spoke, Lin Yu leaned closer to Tang Manman with a mischievous grin, his voice dropping to a whisper as if telling a ghost story:

"Just the two of us, late at night. Teach me how to get along with girls properly."

"Of course."

"If you're scared, I can call a few more sisters over."

"But only girls—no guys allowed."

These words were full of suggestive implications...

If they meant what they sounded like!

Coupled with Lin Yu's wicked smirk, Tang Manman was so frightened that she stumbled back three steps.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Yu pressed forward, no longer restraining his steps as he strode toward her, laughing lewdly:

"Don’t be scared, little sister!"

"Spend more time with me, and you’ll see!"

"Your big brother here is actually a very gentle guy."

"Come on~"

"Ah!!!"

Lin Yu’s intimidation tactics worked perfectly. Tang Manman let out a scream, threw down whatever she was holding, and ran off without looking back.

Lin Yu even playfully stomped his feet a few times, pretending to chase after her.

The sound of his stomping terrified the poor girl even more, and her fleeing figure visibly sped up.

Watching Tang Manman’s retreating figure, Lin Yu grinned in satisfaction.

Perfect.

She probably wouldn’t dare come near him again after this.

Just as Lin Yu was basking in his victory, Tang Manman—perhaps too panicked—tripped while running toward the school building. With a sharp cry, she tumbled onto the rubberized track.

She scrambled up quickly but, before even fully standing, turned to check if Lin Yu was chasing her.

Noticing her glance, Lin Yu immediately put on a stern face and feigned a determined pursuit, sending Tang Manman into another panic. She bolted straight for the school building without a second’s pause.

As her figure disappeared through the entrance, Lin Yu couldn’t help but chuckle.

This girl…

Was unexpectedly adorable.

At the thought, Lin Yu let out a frustrated sigh.

Such a sweet girl—what a waste that she’s stuck with that spineless loser!

Then again, anyone would be better than a delinquent like him.

After a brief moment of reflection, Lin Yu strolled back to the classroom. Soon, the clock struck twelve-thirty, and the afternoon self-study session began.

Lin Yu flipped open his textbooks and started reviewing.

After a long stretch of studying, feeling mentally drained, he decided to shift gears and plan for the future.

First, he calculated the expenses he’d need to cover over four years of university.

Tuition was the biggest immediate cost.

Thanks to the delinquent’s memories, Lin Yu knew that public university tuition in this world wasn’t too high—similar to his original world.

If he got into a decent school, one academic year’s tuition plus dorm fees shouldn’t exceed 10,000 yuan.

But Lin Yu was cautious.

To be safe, he budgeted 50,000 yuan for four years’ worth of tuition and housing.

Better safe than sorry.

What if the university he got into had unusually high fees or premium dorm conditions?

This part of the budget had to be solid.

After mapping it out, Lin Yu scribbled "50,000" on a scrap of paper.

Next came living expenses, including meals.

Food, daily necessities, and miscellaneous spending would easily run up to 2,000 yuan a month.

Twelve months made 24,000, and four years totaled 96,000.

So, if he wanted to get through college without working, he’d need at least 150,000 yuan in savings.

Tsk.

150,000!

Lin Yu frowned.

Where was a high schooler supposed to get that kind of money?

At least he already had some savings.

Remembering the 12,000 yuan he’d deposited in the bank that morning, he reassured himself—at least the first year’s tuition was covered.

Seemed like the rest would have to come from squeezing the original owner’s uncle.

A long road ahead!

...

The third class in the afternoon was P.E. Due to campus consolidation, four classes now shared the same field for sports.

Among them were Lin Yu’s Class 6 and Tang Manman’s class.

After some light exercises and casual drills, the teacher dismissed them early before the bell.

Once freed, Lin Yu didn’t avoid Tang Manman—instead, he did the opposite.

He didn’t sneak over discreetly, either. He walked straight across the empty center of the field, breaking away from his classmates in a blatant line toward Tang Manman’s group.

His striking appearance, especially that eye-catching hair, made him impossible to miss. Soon, someone noticed and urgently warned Tang Manman.

Alerted, Tang Manman spotted Lin Yu approaching. Her delicate face paled, and she immediately lowered her head, hurrying toward the school building at a near-sprint.

Watching her practically flee, Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Seemed this nuisance was resolved.

Now he just had to wait for the other three heroines to appear, max out their dislike meters, and then he could live peacefully in this delinquent manga world.

...

At dusk, after collecting homework from his teachers, Lin Yu slung his single-strap bag over his shoulder and left school—not for his rented room, but for a barbecue stall.

A stall Li Yuan frequented.

Recalling the message Li Yuan had sent during the last class, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.

After bleeding him dry yesterday, now he wanted to treat him to a meal?

Probably nothing good waiting for him there.

But Lin Yu wasn’t worried.

He’d go, shut his brain off, and just eat.

If Li Yuan asked for money? Tough luck—he had none.

If money wasn’t the goal…

Lin Yu rubbed his stubbled chin. Hadn’t Li Yuan promised the original owner a motorcycle at some point?

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.
