Lin Yu stood at the foot of the bed, looking at the scenery on the bed resulting from his hard work. He raised a hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, feeling quite thoroughly satisfied.
Yeah.
This wasn't because Tao Yaoyao was exceptionally outstanding.
But looking at her in this state...
...
It should be like this...
...
After taking a quick shower in the bathroom, drying off, and getting dressed, Lin Yu walked over to the side of the bed again.
Looking at Tao Yaoyao, who was so exhausted that she didn't care about anything and had fallen straight asleep, Lin Yu reached out his hand, intending to wake her up and give her a reminder.
Otherwise.
If they were discovered right at the beginning.
That would make this game far too boring.
Lin Yu had originally planned to gently pat Tao Yaoyao's cheek, using a gentle but effective method to wake her up.
But before he could even finish half of his reaching motion, Lin Yu's hand froze stiffly in mid-air.
Looking at Tao Yaoyao's face, Lin Yu grimaced, the word disgust practically written all over his face.
Lin Yu's suspended hand changed direction, moved down slightly, and pushed Tao Yaoyao's shoulder instead.
Tao Yaoyao really seemed to be exhausted.
Lin Yu gave her several gentle pushes in a row, but she remained in a deep sleep, completely unresponsive.
Even her slender, elegant eyebrows were weak when expressing dissatisfaction; she couldn't even furrow them tightly, only twitching them slightly in a subconscious manner. She truly looked like a pitiful, exhausted wreck.
Seeing the once serene and beautiful Tao Yaoyao become so fragile and tired.
As the main culprit, Lin Yu didn't feel guilty at all; instead, he felt rather smug.
This was exactly what he wanted!
Seeing that Tao Yaoyao was sleeping heavily, Lin Yu stopped holding back and pushed her with a bit more force.
This time, Tao Yaoyao woke up.
Her long, curled eyelashes fluttered gently at first, then gradually parted as she wearily and weakly opened her eyes.
Seeing Tao Yaoyao turn her pupils toward him and confirming she was awake, Lin Yu bent down and leaned slightly closer, though he still kept a certain distance out of disdain, and said softly:
"When you go back later, remember to wash yourself thoroughly."
"It's best to use body wash and scrub a few more times."
"A woman's sense of smell and sixth sense are very sharp."
"I hope you can keep our little secret safe."
After giving his instructions with a smile, Lin Yu planned to leave and let Tao Yaoyao rest well.
Just as he reached the door, Lin Yu suddenly remembered something else.
Turning his head to look, Lin Yu noticed that Tao Yaoyao, lying on the bed, had already closed her eyes again.
"Hey, Tao Yaoyao, wake up for a second."
"There's one more thing I need to tell you."
Lin Yu said as he stood at the door.
Lying on her side on the bed, Tao Yaoyao struggled to open her eyes a slit and looked at Lin Yu wearily.
"If you're short on money, you can get an advance on your salary from the company's finance department. They will give it to you."
After saying that, Lin Yu pushed open the hotel room door and strode away stylishly.
The door closed gently, and the lock core popped out with a soft, crisp click.
Tao Yaoyao looked at the empty doorway and slowly closed her eyes.
She didn't have any special feelings at this moment, nor did she have any complicated thoughts.
Her mind was completely empty, leaving only an endless stream of exhaustion flowing quietly.
She wasn't thinking about anything now; half of her body had already slipped back into a deep sleep.
If she had to say there was any special feeling...
...
...
Most of the time, work was the number one priority for Qing Mo.
This wasn't because she loved working so much.
She wasn't a masochist, so how could she like working...
emmmm...
Anyway.
The reason Qing Mo was willing to devote the vast majority of her time to work was that, compared to work, she was even less interested in other things.
She didn't have much of a passion for food.
She had no interest in traveling either.
There were only a few things that could make her put down her work without hesitation and focus on them wholeheartedly.
Looking at the messages and photos sent by the private investigator.
Qing Mo remained silent for a long time.
She was pondering a question.
Was this matter ultimately a good thing or a bad thing?
After thinking for a long time.
Qing Mo finally made a decision; she felt this should be a good thing.
The fact that he would actively do something like this, even if it was out of revenge, at least proved that he wouldn't do extreme things like he used to.
Yeah.
This was definitely a good thing.
It's just...
Qing Mo frowned slightly and raised a hand to rub the spot between her brows.
It's just that she kept feeling a sour ache in her neck.
As if there was something glowing sitting on top of her head again.
...
"Sigh."
Letting out a sigh full of helplessness, Qing Mo was left speechless and choked up.
Perhaps her life would just be like this.
After a brief lament over her hopeless hobbies, Qing Mo turned her attention back to the important matters.
Since Lin Yu had walked out of his previous trauma and wouldn't do extreme things anymore.
Then shouldn't she put the matter of confessing on the agenda?
After all, if she dragged it out any longer, it wouldn't be something that a loose piece of clothing could cover up.
However, before taking her to confess to Lin Yu, Qing Mo decided to tell those two people about this matter first.
As for whether those two could accept it, Qing Mo felt it shouldn't be a big problem.
They were both very gentle people.
When the time came, she would exaggerate Su Yuyao's life-saving grace towards herself and Lin Yu, and take the lead in expressing her stance. She felt there was still a lot of hope!
lanned to earn money steadily and take life at a slower pace. But he never expected... his father's remarriage, and the stepmother bringing along a dependent, would completely disrupt his life's plans...
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.
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
