Watching Tang Manman's light and airy figure as she walked away, the sense of guilt in Lin Yu's heart grew a little heavier.
Was it really okay for him to deceive this little fool like this?
"Sigh."
Letting out a sigh to himself, Lin Yu felt quite emotional.
Looking at it this way, if he hadn't gone down the path of pure love in the beginning, he might have made quite a name for himself in the scumbag forums.
Not long after Tang Manman left, Tang Qinqin walked out of the movie theater. She was pouting her delicate pink lips, looking extremely unhappy.
Seeing her come out, Lin Yu quickly turned his back, terrified that she would spot him.
After a while, Lin Yu carefully turned his head to look again. Finding that Tang Qinqin was already gone, he finally let out a long breath of relief.
Before heading back to the theater, Lin Yu didn't forget to make a trip to the restroom to check the mirror and see if there were any incriminating traces left on his face by Tang Manman.
Sure enough, looking at his slightly glossy lips in the mirror, Lin Yu thought to himself that it was a close call.
If Sister Zhuzi found out about this, it would be a real disaster!
Washing off the specks of lip balm on his lips with water, Lin Yu carefully inspected himself in the mirror again. After making sure there was nothing unusual, he turned and left the restroom.
To be honest.
Lin Yu really felt like he couldn't keep living these nerve-wracking days, sneaking around like a thief.
Was this the price of giving up on pure love?
It was truly agonizing!
He should open his heart!
And have a good talk...
...
"Damn it..."
Lin Yu reached up and rubbed his forehead.
Heck.
He didn't even dare to imagine how "beautiful" that scene would be.
Would they really not start fighting?
Probably not, right?
Lin Yu pondered secretly.
Among the three, Tang Manman and Xia Muzhu were both the gentle type, and Qing Mo was even less of a worry.
The one he needed to worry about the least!
Thinking about it, Lin Yu felt that this was something he definitely had to do.
After all, he couldn't hide it like this for the rest of his life.
But...
...
It was a bit difficult to take the first step.
Lin Yu rubbed the space between his eyebrows in distress.
Forget it, forget it.
It's better to take it one step at a time.
Lin Yu let out a sigh.
He would wait for a suitable opportunity to test the waters with them first.
Then he would decide what to do next.
This kind of thing couldn't be rushed.
Returning to the movie theater, Lin Yu went to sit beside Xia Muzhu.
When he caught a glimpse of the two empty seats next to Xia Muzhu, Lin Yu froze, and cold sweat immediately began to break out.
No way?
Lin Yu turned his head and looked around, only to find that the entire theater was packed with people. Aside from the two empty seats next to Xia Muzhu, there were almost no other unoccupied seats to be seen.
Was it really this sinister?
Lin Yu was truly at a loss for words.
Steadying his nerves, Lin Yu picked up the popcorn bucket and focused on watching the movie.
The movie was pretty good. After finishing the whole thing, Lin Yu and Xia Muzhu got up and left.
The two of them first took a taxi back to the hot pot restaurant.
Then Xia Muzhu drove them home.
After returning home, having gone through a busy day, both of them were actually quite tired.
Especially Lin Yu; he had simply experienced way too much over the course of the day.
The mental pressure had been enormous, and once he relaxed, it made him feel even more exhausted.
While waiting for the bathtub to fill with water in the bathroom, Lin Yu was so sleepy he could barely keep his eyes open.
Finally waiting until the bathtub was full, Lin Yu stripped off his clothes and lay inside.
Now he was done for.
With the soothing effect of the warm water, Lin Yu felt even sleepier.
If he hadn't forced himself to stay awake, knowing he couldn't fall asleep in the bathtub, Lin Yu felt like he would have slipped into a deep slumber the very next second.
Drowsiness was like a large hand, gently and docilely stroking Lin Yu's exhausted nerves, yet it was also incredibly powerful, making it impossible for anyone to break free from its grasp.
Surrounded by fatigue.
Lin Yu's eyelids grew increasingly heavy.
In his daze, Lin Yu felt like he really couldn't hold on any longer and was about to pass out.
Right at that moment, the soft sound of a door opening rang out.
Lin Yu's nearly numb nerves sparked with a tiny trace of alertness.
But it was of no use. This faint trace of alertness didn't even allow him to open his eyes again; he merely twitched his eyebrows slightly, and then there was nothing more...
...
It felt quite like his mental energy was overdrawn.
It was the kind of feeling where, when you are already unimaginably tired, you are pulled up by someone and have to muster up your energy to do something else, overdrawing your mental strength to the point where even resting cannot fully restore you.
Glancing to his side, Xia Muzhu was still asleep.
However...
???
Three question marks popped up in Lin Yu's head. When did she put her underwear back on?
Was it after they finished last night?
That wasn't right.
He remembered that at that time, both he and she were quite completely bare with each other...
Xia Muzhu wasn't sleeping deeply. With just some slight movements from Lin Yu's side, she woke up.
Looking at Lin Yu right in front of her, her eyes were filled with love. Like a delicate flower that had been well-nourished, she took the initiative to offer a kiss, landing it on Lin Yu's lips.
"Are you hungry?"
Xia Muzhu asked thoughtfully.
Lin Yu had just woken up, and all the organs in his body were still in the process of awakening. He didn't feel hungry, so he replied that he was okay.
Xia Muzhu nodded and then continued to rest on Lin Yu's chest, closing her eyes to enjoy the current tranquility...
......
"Ha, ha, ha..." (Xia Muzhu's exhausted panting)
"Hoo, hoo, hoo..." (Lin Yu's slightly rapid breathing)
Now Lin Yu was truly hungry.
This wasn't something Lin Yu did on purpose, wanting to get some exercise before eating.
Rather, it was a case of teasing each other back and forth, and naturally arriving at this step.
As for who was the first to reach out a naughty little hand, Lin Yu could no longer remember.
It didn't matter anyway, and Lin Yu couldn't be bothered to remember.
However, by a lucky coincidence, Lin Yu did find out why Xia Muzhu had unknowingly put her underwear on.
It turned out she had woken up very early. It was just that after making breakfast, she lazily lay back down, hugging him with the intention of taking another nap.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races!

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
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)
