"Sis~"
On the hospital bed, Xia Yueshan showed a rare pitiful expression, acting spoiled towards Xia Muzhu beside the bed:
"I want to eat the porridge you make..."
How could Xia Muzhu bear to say no to Xia Yueshan, who had just recovered from a serious illness? Her heart ached for him, not to mention it was such a simple little request.
She readily agreed:
"Okay."
"I'll go back and make some porridge for you right now."
"Get me a bowl too."
"Put extra shrimp in mine."
Lin Yu, sitting on the other side of the bed, chimed in at the right time to say he wanted some too.
Xia Muzhu nodded, noted their requests, grabbed her bag, and immediately turned to leave the ward.
As soon as Xia Muzhu left, Lin Yu suddenly bent down, pulled out a KFC family bucket from under the bed, and placed it on the bedside table.
Xia Yueshan stuck his tongue out playfully, wiggling up from the bed, impatiently reaching his small hand toward the fried chicken in the bucket.
Lin Yu was more careful than Xia Yueshan. He walked to the door, closed the ward door, and then returned to the bed to start eating with Xia Yueshan.
"Mmm, mmm, mmm."
"This is pure bliss!"
Xia Yueshan ate until his mouth was covered in grease. The long-lost salty and savory aroma of fat made him feel like every cell in his body had come back to life.
While gorging himself, Xia Yueshan didn't forget the great contributor beside the bed. He thanked him indistinctly:
"Lin Yu, from now on, I only acknowledge you as my brother-in-law!"
Lin Yu cast a sidelong glance at Xia Yueshan, who forgot his sister over fried chicken, with a look of disdain, but didn't forget to remind him:
"The doctor said your stomach isn't doing well, and eating too greasy might give you a stomachache."
"You better hold it in then and don't sell me out."
"Don't worry."
Xia Yueshan waved his grease-covered hand grandly and said:
"I'm a man of brotherhood!"
"I absolutely won't betray you!"
Saying that, Xia Yueshan reached into the bucket again, pulled out a chicken wing, and ate it happily.
"Alright."
"That's enough."
"Later when your sister comes back with the porridge, if you can't eat it, see how I deal with you!"
Xia Yueshan nodded, mumbling an okay, but the speed of his hands didn't slow down at all.
Lin Yu stopped after eating one chicken wing. He sat aside, looking at Xia Yueshan's greasy mouth, feeling quite conflicted.
He really didn't know how much longer he could keep his harem a secret from him.
When the truth comes out, it will inevitably be another bloodbath.
Sighing lightly and shaking his head, Lin Yu stopped thinking about this headache-inducing matter and shifted his attention to other things.
First.
Tang's mother's problem had been resolved.
Under the dual persuasion of him and Tang Manman, coupled with the key factor of Tang Qinqin being expelled and having to go to school out of town.
Tang's mother decided to accompany Tang Qinqin to study out of town.
The two would leave after the New Year.
With this matter resolved, Lin Yu's pressure was instantly reduced a lot.
Secondly, he had already promised Tang Manman that when the new semester started, he would go to City A and enroll in N University with Tang Manman.
Actually, thinking about it carefully, Lin Yu felt that this arrangement was simply fantastic.
During the school term, he could be lovey-dovey with Tang Manman, while Xia Muzhu was in City H.
During the holidays, he would return to City H and be lovey-dovey with Xia Muzhu, and Tang Manman would surely miss her mother and sister in the other province and go spend more time with them.
In this way, wouldn't their schedules be perfectly staggered?
What?
Qing Mo?
She could fly globally!
Next is the last thing.
That guy Xu Mingyao has been unusually quiet lately.
Ever since that day when he grabbed Qing Mo's butt and kissed her right in front of her, she hadn't appeared again.
She hadn't even sent Qing Mo a message or called her.
This was very unusual.
Could it be...
...
She just gave up like this?
Emmmm...
Lin Yu rubbed his chin, feeling a bit unsatisfied.
He hadn't even exerted much effort yet.
How could she not take it anymore?
Isn't her psychological endurance too weak?
After thinking about it, Lin Yu decided to let it go.
Since she seemed to have given up on Qing Mo, he should also start preparing for the next phase of his plan.
But he couldn't rush the implementation of the next phase.
He had to wait.
Wait for that prodigal Xu Mingyao to spend almost all the money she had.
Wait for Tao Yaoyao to need money but hit a wall everywhere while looking for a job.
Yes.
That would be the time for him to step in.
To be honest.
Cucking Xu Mingyao with a one-sided crush like Qing Mo was a bit lacking.
Cucking Xu Mingyao with someone she actually has feelings for, like Tao Yaoyao, is where the real flavor is!
And judging by Xu Mingyao's current spending habits, that day didn't seem far off.
Beside him, Xia Yueshan sitting on the hospital bed was already full and let out a satisfied burp.
He looked at Lin Yu beside the bed and asked a question he had wanted to ask since he first saw him yesterday but kept forgetting.
"Why did you dye your hair blond again?"
Lin Yu subconsciously raised his hand and touched his shoulder-length blond hair.
This was dyed a while ago specifically so Lin Yu could achieve a better effect when cucking Xu Mingyao.
Lin Yu certainly couldn't tell Xia Yueshan the real reason, so he casually made up an excuse:
"To reminisce about my youth."
"What's wrong?"
"Does it look bad?"
Xia Yueshan examined Lin Yu's hair and after a long while, finally said:
"It doesn't look bad."
"But it doesn't look good either."
"It's just..."
"I feel like this hairstyle really suits you."
"Before, you just didn't look like a good person."
"Now, you look exactly like a bad guy."
"Looking like you do now, if you went to the gate of our school, you wouldn't even need to speak. Just find someone who looks easy to bully, glare at them, and they'd probably take out their money and give you protection fees on their own."
Lin Yu opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, feeling speechless for a moment.
Is this the power of an exclusive weapon?
How terrifying!
The two talked nonsense for a while, then took out their phones and started playing games.
As for the traces of their crime, chicken bones, KFC paper bucket, they were completely destroyed by Lin Yu, thrown into a distant trash can.
After they played two rounds, Xia Muzhu quickly hurried back to the hospital carrying two thermos buckets.
Under Lin Yu's threatening gaze, the already full Xia Yueshan forced himself to drink a large bowl of porridge.
Then, Xia Yueshan threw up due to overeating and indigestion.
At night, facing Xia Muzhu who was puffing with anger and hands on her hips, Lin Yu and Xia Yueshan both lowered their heads like two frostbitten eggplants, being scolded without daring to say a single word in rebuttal...

Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

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?

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?!

Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
