As dusk fell, Xia Yueshan returned home in the evening.
Seeing nobody in the living room, he subconsciously went to look for his older sister.
Pushing open Xia Muzhu's bedroom door, a question mark slowly popped up over Xia Yueshan's head.
Seriously, man.
What time is it?
Why are you two still in bed?
Looking at his sister and Lin Yu, who seemed to have just woken up, a few traces of confusion appeared on Xia Yueshan's no-longer-chubby face.
Xia Yueshan was already in his third year of middle school. After the high school entrance exams and a seemingly long but actually very short summer vacation, he would be promoted to a miserable high schooler.
At this age, Xia Yueshan pretty much understood everything he should and shouldn't know.
So he was well aware of what his sister and Lin Yu might be doing secretly at night.
But why were these two still lying together right now?
This was truly a bit beyond his understanding.
Doesn't that kind of thing just take a little while?
Like an old-fashioned flintlock from a bygone era.
One second to fire, two hours to reload.
The recovery period is supposed to be very long!
Based on this understanding of normal people, Xia Yueshan naturally assumed that these two were just lazy. After rolling his eyes at the two lazybones, he got ready to tackle the homework in his backpack.
Lin Yu and Xia Muzhu were huddled under the covers. Feeling guilty, they didn't know what Xia Yueshan was thinking and assumed his eye roll meant something else, so they naturally blushed a little.
Taking advantage of Xia Yueshan's departure, the two hurried to get dressed.
This time, Xia Muzhu was truly so embarrassed she could barely show her face.
While getting dressed, she couldn't help but reach out and give Lin Yu's waist a moderate pinch, complaining:
"It's all your fault!"
"You just wouldn't stop!"
Hearing this, Lin Yu, who was putting on his pants with his back to Xia Muzhu, instantly felt a bit displeased and retorted:
"How can you blame it all on me?"
"Weren't you the one who provoked me first?"
"I was just making a justified counterattack!"
Lin Yu's shameless words made Xia Muzhu instantly lose her annoyance. She laughed and scolded playfully:
"Justified my ass!"
After the two finished getting dressed, they discussed it and the three of them decided to go out to eat.
For one thing, Lin Yu and Xia Muzhu were both getting unbearably hungry.
After all, they hadn't eaten anything all day and had just been exercising.
For another, Xia Muzhu was quite exhausted.
It was better not to trouble her with cooking.
The three headed out. After a brief chat, they decided to go to a relatively high-end seafood food stall for dinner.
On the road, the traffic was congested, cars packed bumper to bumper, moving even more sluggishly than an earthworm by the roadside.
Seeing that it was already the evening rush hour, the three thought about it and decided to just walk over.
The food stall wasn't far from here anyway.
It wouldn't take long.
The three strolled leisurely along the sidewalk.
Xia Muzhu and Lin Yu held hands, leaning affectionately against each other like a sweet, loving married couple whose romance hadn't been buried by marriage.
Xia Yueshan walked alone on the side. With his hands stuffed in his pockets and looking like a lone wolf, he gave off the vibe of a kid trying hard to act cool.
Lin Yu glanced sideways at Xia Yueshan, somewhat curious about how he was doing lately, and asked:
"Shan."
"Haven't you gotten yourself a girlfriend at school?"
Hearing this, Xia Muzhu, who was leaning against Lin Yu, immediately perked up and turned to look at Xia Yueshan.
She was also very concerned about this question.
Xia Yueshan was already a growing teenage boy now.
Many kids his age had already started dating.
Xia Muzhu actually didn't want him to start dating so early.
After all, he was only in the ninth grade.
He was still a bit too young.
His mind wasn't mature enough.
She would feel more at ease if he waited until he was seventeen or eighteen to start dating.
"Nope."
Xia Yueshan kept his hands in his pockets, acting cool and aloof, as if he looked down on the girls his age.
But in the very next second, Lin Yu smashed his painstakingly maintained cool image to pieces.
"Hey."
"Look, wifey."
"We've got a single dog right here."
Lin Yu pointed at Xia Yueshan, turning his head to mock him to Xia Muzhu.
"Pfft!"
Xia Muzhu couldn't hold back her laughter.
What single dog?
It was completely normal for a kid this age not to date!
It was just that Lin Yu's comment was too funny. Unable to stop laughing, Xia Muzhu could only shoot Lin Yu a gentle, playful glare in protest.
Xia Yueshan was so infuriated by Lin Yu's mockery that he almost tripped over his own feet.
After steadying himself, he shot Lin Yu a dirty look and fired back grumpily:
"Good for you!"
"You're not single."
"You just got lucky running into a fool like my sister."
"If it were any other woman,"
"You'd be lucky if they didn't rip your skin right off!"
Xia Yueshan's comeback was nothing short of sharp, instantly turning Lin Yu's face dark.
We're just joking around, and you go for the throat, huh?
He immediately waved his hand and said coldly:
"Fine."
"In a minute, I'll have Qingmo delete your contact info."
"Don't even think about getting another dime from her."
"And as for sports cars,"
"I'll make sure you never even see a single screw of a sports car again."
"Hey!"
"Don't!"
Xia Yueshan panicked. He quickly changed his tune, putting on a flattering smile as he latched onto Lin Yu's free arm, begging for mercy:
"Don't."
"Brother-in-law."
"I was wrong."
"Can't you see I admit I'm wrong?"
"Get lost, get lost!"
Lin Yu gently pushed Xia Yueshan away in mock disgust. After stumbling back a few steps, Xia Yueshan hurriedly clung to him again, like a little bee that couldn't be swatted away.
Under the orange-gold and red sunset.
The three of them walked forward, joking and laughing all the way.
The light of the setting sun stretched their shadows long across the ground, sticking closely together...

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.
