After enjoying the sea breeze for a while,
Lin Yu, unsurprisingly, started feeling cold.
Barbecue time, barbecue time!
A slightly chilly night like this pairs perfectly with grilled skewers!
Leading Gu Yue away from the beach, Lin Yu took her for some barbecue.
Back in his small but tidy and clean rented apartment, Lin Yu lay on the bed, patting his round belly, feeling an unusual sense of contentment.
Closing his eyes, just as he was about to drift off to sleep with this satisfaction, he suddenly felt a slight discomfort in his chest, as if a tiny grain of sand had lodged itself in his soft heart.
He opened his eyes and couldn’t help but ask himself:
Had he forgotten something?
Why did something feel off?
Lin Yu lay there with his eyes open, thinking for a long time before finally reaching a conclusion.
Had he forgotten to send Xia Muzhu, the second female lead, some horror short videos today?
With that thought, he picked up his phone and began scrolling through their chat history.
Wait, no.
He had already sent them.
Staring at the thumbnails of the terrifying short videos in their chat, Lin Yu couldn’t pinpoint why he still felt an inexplicable emptiness.
Whatever.
Since he was already here,
might as well send her a couple more!
From his collection of crime investigation videos, he selected two clips of women being attacked by intruders in their homes and two more of women being assaulted while walking alone at night. With a swipe of his finger, he sent all four videos at once.
Seeing the "read" notification pop up under the clips, Lin Yu closed his eyes in relief...
...
Facing the furious new homeroom teacher, Lin Yu swallowed hard.
Now he remembered what he’d forgotten yesterday.
He hadn’t done his homework!
"Go stand in the hallway!"
The newly appointed teacher suppressed his anger as he spoke sternly to Lin Yu, then moved on to collect homework from the student sitting behind him.
Sighing helplessly, Lin Yu stood up from his seat and obediently walked out to the corridor.
Once there, he glanced to his left, then to his right.
He almost laughed but held it in.
The hallway was packed. Two long lines of students were pressed tightly against the walls like snakes, and even that wasn’t enough space—many of the later arrivals couldn’t find a spot against the wall and had to stand awkwardly in the middle of the corridor, looking slightly out of place.
Of course, some of the more outgoing ones were weaving through the crowd, chatting with anyone they could.
Not wanting to draw attention, Lin Yu was scanning for a lucky candidate when a white-haired student leaning against the wall perceptively stepped forward and said with a grin,
"Hey, Brother Long, take my spot."
Lin Yu nodded and smoothly slid into the vacated space.
Students from his class continued trickling out into the hallway.
Finally, when the corridor was nearly at capacity, the homeroom teacher from the neighboring class emerged. He reluctantly called his students back inside—apparently, only two in his entire class had done their homework. If he kept the slackers standing out here, there’d be no one left to teach.
One by one, most of the classes recalled their delinquent students.
When only two classes remained in the hallway, Lin Yu heard his new homeroom teacher’s voice from inside the classroom:
"Everyone, come back in!"
At the command, the students filed back inside. Lin Yu was squeezing through the crowd when he overheard a complaint:
"Who the hell actually did their homework? Just wait till I find out—I’m gonna teach that bastard a lesson!"
Lin Yu instinctively turned toward the voice.
Damn.
Now that was a fresh take on bullying—he’d never heard that excuse before!

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?!
