After the last class of the afternoon, Lin Yu and Tang Manman left the classroom together.
"Let's go take a stroll down the snack street."
"I'm craving grilled squid."
Tang Manman turned her head to look at Lin Yu, her eyes sparkling, looking exactly like a little glutton.
"No can do."
Lin Yu shook his head and said,
"Qing Mo is coming over tonight."
"We better head back early."
Tang Manman's expression froze.
She was already quite surprised when she heard Qing Mo was coming.
But before that shock could fade, hearing Lin Yu say "We better head back early" made it worse.
Tang Manman became even more flustered.
Qing Mo is coming?
We are heading back?
Are you craving a double-combo meal again?
Tang Manman looked a bit awkward. Ultimately, she was still shy, and she said somewhat reluctantly,
"Y-you should just go back by yourself."
"I... I'll give you two some space."
"How could I do that?"
Lin Yu furrowed his brows and immediately unleashed his ultimate sweet-talking manipulation tactics.
"What's the point if you're not by my side?"
"Without you, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get it up when the time comes."
"Ah!"
"What are you saying!"
Hearing Lin Yu speak so explicitly, Tang Manman was dying of embarrassment.
Heart pounding, she frantically looked left and right. After realizing no one was paying attention to them, she breathed a sigh of relief and playfully punched Lin Yu's chest.
Shamelessly taking advantage of the situation, Lin Yu pulled Tang Manman into his arms and continued his routine:
"I mean it."
"You are the most important person to me."
"Plus, do me a favor."
"With you around, it'll be a bit easier for me to handle Qing Mo."
In truth, no matter what, Lin Yu could handle Qing Mo with ease.
He wouldn't even need to get serious!
But for this kind of thing, the more the merrier, right?
And he had to admit, this little creature Tang Manman was really fun after she got drunk.
When drunk, she didn't throw tantrums, nor did she throw up or make a fuss. She would just sit there in a daze.
The fun part was that she became incredibly obedient when intoxicated.
Some commands that would make her blush and instantly refuse when sober, she would execute without any hesitation when drunk.
And she would do so with extreme effort!
Qing Mo and Xia Muzhu, who had undoubtedly suffered at her hands, must have deeply experienced this point.
Therefore, no matter what, Lin Yu would never let go of Tang Manman, this loyal enforcer.
Even though she had been living with Lin Yu for a while now.
Whenever she heard him whisper sweet nothings like this, Tang Manman still found it hard to resist. Her face instantly turned hot and red, feeling as though she were already drunk without having a single drop of alcohol.
"T-then, alright."
Tang Manman lowered her head and whispered, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
Seeing Tang Manman agree, Lin Yu tightened his grip around her waist and said happily,
"That's right."
"We're not strangers anymore."
"Let's go!"
"Time to head home!"
After arriving home.
Lin Yu didn't rush to get Tang Manman drunk.
He was afraid she would get drunk too early.
And end up falling asleep before Qing Mo even arrived.
It wasn't until he learned that Qing Mo had entered the city limits that Lin Yu gave her some easy-to-drink red wine.
Tang Manman's alcohol tolerance was very poor. After only half a small glass of red wine, it didn't take long for her cheeks to flush with a drunken red.
She looked a bit dazed and silly.
Lin Yu sat with her on the sofa, waiting for Qing Mo while also making sure Tang Manman didn't fall asleep.
Before long.
There was a knock on the door.
Lin Yu excitedly got up to open it.
While waiting, Lin Yu had asked Qing Mo several times what the surprise she mentioned was.
But Qing Mo kept her mouth shut every time.
Acting all mysterious.
Now that they were about to meet.
He would see how she could hide it now!
If she still dared to keep it a secret!
He would directly deploy his torture device, Tang Manman, to ruthlessly interrogate her!
Excitedly opening the door, Lin Yu only needed one glance to know what Qing Mo's surprise was.
To tell the truth.
Seeing Xia Muzhu at this moment, Lin Yu subconsciously felt a bit guilty.
After all, Xia Muzhu had been his official girlfriend for over a year. Even though they had already talked things out and made everything clear long ago.
But seeing her, Lin Yu inevitably still felt the guilty conscience of a cheater running into the main wife.
However, Lin Yu reacted extremely quickly.
He knew very well that in this situation, if he didn't assert dominance and let these two women take the lead, he would be the one suffering!
So Lin Yu grinned, raised his eyebrows, and said with pleasant surprise,
"Sister Zhuzi, you're here too?"
"That's wonderful."
"I missed you to death."
"Hurry and come in."
With that, Lin Yu stepped forward directly, wrapping one arm around Xia Muzhu's waist and the other around Qing Mo's slender waist.
Embracing both of them, he walked into the room.
Then, with a kick of his left foot, the door gently closed shut...
...
With a sharp weapon like Tang Manman, Lin Yu found it much easier to handle Qing Mo and Xia Muzhu.
So easy that after all three women were too exhausted to move, Lin Yu still had the energy to go to the balcony for a smoke.
After finishing the cigarette, Lin Yu suddenly felt a bit hungry.
Remembering there were some easy-to-prep ingredients in the fridge, Lin Yu decided not to order takeout.
He figured he would just whip up something tasty himself.
Taking out some marinated barbecue meat and squid from the fridge, Lin Yu tossed them all into the pan, stir-fried them haphazardly, and a dish with great color, aroma, and taste was ready.
He scooped out some leftover rice from the previous meal from the rice cooker.
Lin Yu brought the food to the dining table, found a video he liked to watch while eating, and began enjoying his meal happily.
Not long into his meal, Lin Yu suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind.
Lin Yu looked back and saw Qing Mo wearing Tang Manman's pajamas.
Seeing it was her, Lin Yu didn't find it strange.
After all, she was known for surrendering quickly and recovering quickly.
"Wanna eat?"
Lin Yu offered casually.
Qing Mo glanced at the messy concoction on the table. Looking slightly fatigued, she gently shook her head, gesturing for him to just eat it himself.
Lin Yu didn't stand on ceremony with her.
He continued to eat heartily.
Qing Mo sat down opposite Lin Yu.
She sat sideways on the chair, her cold, jade-like white legs crossed together, still bearing some faint but visible red marks.
She propped her elbow on the table, resting her cheek in her palm.
Quietly watching Lin Yu bury his head and eat like a little piglet.
Just like that, Lin Yu ate, and Qing Mo watched.
After quite a while, Qing Mo suddenly parted her thin lips without warning and asked softly:
"Do you like children?"

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. 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!
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?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
