An All Too Familiar Plot.

During his free time waiting for the plane at the airport.

Lin Yu had not forgotten about that matter. He sent a message to Zhao She, asking him to help investigate Tao Yaoyao's identity and background.

To see whether she was truly a wealthy young lady from a prestigious family or a puppet kept as a mistress.

After sending the message, Lin Yu closed his eyes to rest, quietly waiting for his flight to arrive.

If Tao Yaoyao was really a manipulated puppet kept by someone.

Then Lin Yu already had a guess in his heart about who was behind her.

He hoped that all of this was just his own wild imagination.

From the bottom of his heart, Lin Yu hoped that his guess would not come true.

As for Tao Yaoyao, Lin Yu could not clearly articulate what kind of feelings he had for her.

A friend?

It seemed that could only be it.

To be honest, if it were in his previous life, and such a perfect, top-tier campus belle who was also very gentle to him appeared when he did not have a girlfriend, he would have long since knelt down and acted like her loyal dog.

But now.

He and she simply had no destiny together.

Sister Zhuzi was great, Tang Manman was great, and Qingmo was not bad either.

But if none of the three of them had ever appeared...

Perhaps something would have happened between him and Tao Yaoyao?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu smiled and shook his head.

Perhaps.

Who could say for sure?

Outside the transparent glass windows of the waiting hall, a behemoth was slowly towed over by a low tug vehicle.

The plane had arrived. After a brief wait, the crowd that had lined up early began to board.

Lin Yu was in no rush to line up; after all, the seat he had paid for was not going to run away.

As boarding was nearing its end, Lin Yu stood up and took one last look at the city.

Goodbye.

After a silent farewell in his heart, Lin Yu turned around and boarded the plane.

After a short flight of over an hour, the plane landed in S City.

Lin Yu left the airport, hailed a random taxi outside, and had a smooth ride back to S University.

Today was Sunday, so there were no classes to attend. With nothing to do, Lin Yu returned to his dorm. Pushing the door open, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his buddies were all there.

Lin Yu immediately felt a surge of interest and urged everyone to play a couple rounds of games.

After parting ways with Tang Manman today, Lin Yu could keenly sense his own awkward and depressed mood.

And whenever a guy harbored this kind of hard-to-digest emotion, they generally had two choices.

One, play video games.

Two, smoke.

Lin Yu's choice naturally went without saying.

He would smoke while playing video games.

Doing both at the same time!

After teaming up with Lang Hua and the other two, the four of them started a killing spree in the Rift...

...

"Ah, fuck me!"

"How did we even lose that!"

Lu Pengju took off his headphones from his neck and slammed them onto the desk in frustration.

"Why the fuck do we keep running into these idiots every single game!"

Wu Zhen was also tilted, cursing up a storm.

They had been playing for half the afternoon.

Every single match, they either encountered brain-dead teammates or a smurf on the enemy team. It was incredibly frustrating.

Lang Hua's expression was not looking too good either. As the most skilled player among the four, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness in trying to carry the other three.

Coupled with the fact that the random teammate matched with them in every game truly had issues, he was also on the verge of raging.

As for Lin Yu, he had already raged and passed that point.

Now, he even had the mind to start thinking calmly.

What the heck!

Why did this scene feel so familiar?

Lin Yu rubbed his chin in exasperation, his eyebrows almost knitting into a single line.

He remembered back when he rejected Tang Manman, he had gone to the internet cafe downstairs to play games and clear his mind, and it was exactly the same as now.

He lost every game he played, and was even infuriated by a goddamn Zilean.

After going out, a series of unlucky things happened. He got drenched in the rain after getting out of the car, his phone froze when he was checking out at the mall, and he even got splashed all over when he stomped on an empty yogurt carton on the street to vent his anger.

Lin Yu still remembered that day's unlucky experiences vividly.

He could not help it; it was just too unlucky.

It would be hard to forget even if he wanted to!

After that was the second time he met Qingmo.

At that time, he was almost consumed by anger. Qingmo's slap became the final barbell that crushed the camel, completely snapping his tightly wound strings and leading to a series of troublesome events later on.

Damn it.

Lin Yu turned his head to look at the setting sun outside the window, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Nothing crazy is going to happen again this time, right?

No!

He could not go out again today.

He would not go out even if he was beaten to death!

For the rest of the day, he would just stay in the dorm like a good boy.

He refused to believe it!

If he did not go out today, could someone actually carry him out?

Thinking this way, Lin Yu immediately demanded that everyone continue playing, battling until dawn.

As the lobby host in the game, Lang Hua nodded. He did not plan on ending it just like this either.

At the very least, they had to win one game, right?

Lang Hua moved the mouse and clicked to start matchmaking. About ten seconds later, just as the screen displayed a successful match, the dorm door was suddenly pushed open. A guy from the same floor poked his head in.

His gaze swept over everyone in the dorm and finally landed on Lin Yu as he spoke:

"Lin Yu, someone is looking for you downstairs."

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.
