"I know you all care deeply about progress. But I don’t want this to become some mandatory goal we must achieve. That’s not the outcome I’m looking for." Ye Feng revealed his thoughts, his expression turning troubled.
"Rather than focusing on progress as a task, I’d much prefer if we could get along more harmoniously. Every time I see you all hiding your sadness, it weighs heavily on my heart."
"Brother Ye Feng..."
After hearing Ye Feng’s words, Su Yuxin and the others fell silent, stumbling over their words as they struggled to respond.
Just as the atmosphere grew stifling, the faint sound of footsteps came from behind the sofa. Li Mucheng, sitting across from them, had been lost in thought about how to help everyone understand her feelings when she suddenly looked up and noticed Xie Yuyan approaching from the hallway.
"Ye Feng..."
With a gentle touch, Xie Yuyan placed a hand on Ye Feng’s shoulder, and the next moment, he felt something soft press against him.
"Yu... Yuyan? You’re awake!"
Realizing it was Xie Yuyan behind him, the sternness in Ye Feng’s gaze immediately softened.
"Mmm... I heard everything you just said."
"R-really? Well, Yuyan, do you have any thoughts?"
"My thoughts? Do you really want to hear them, Ye Feng?"
"Of course. Everyone has the right to voice their opinions, and you’re no exception."
Xie Yuyan nodded thoughtfully, glancing at the three pairs of eyes fixed on her before speaking calmly, "My thoughts are simple—I just want to be with you, Ye Feng."
"Eh? That’s... that’s it?"
"What else? That’s all I need. I’m not a greedy person, after all."
"No, no, Yuyan, you misunderstood. I was asking about the mission progress..."
"If it’s about progress, then of course we should complete it, but I’d prefer to let things unfold naturally. The more we obsess over it, the more likely we are to rush and make mistakes. So I believe we should accomplish it gradually, without forcing it."
"I see..."
Though Xie Yuyan’s answer wasn’t explicit, at least she was still in favor of completing the mission.
"But Ye Feng, I think you’re wrong about one thing."
Xie Yuyan leaned down, cupping Ye Feng’s chin in her hands as their eyes locked.
"The final decision should be ours to make. Your words just now were undermining our confidence! If you ever say something like that again, don’t blame me for being harsh!"
Ye Feng knew exactly what she meant by "harsh." Faced with Xie Yuyan’s assertive demeanor, he quickly backed down.
"S-sorry, I just wanted to share my perspective. If there was any misunderstanding, I apologize to everyone."
"It’s not that serious, Ye Feng. You’re making me sound like some kind of tyrant..."
Xie Yuyan flusteredly hugged Ye Feng’s head, resting her chin on his shoulder as she muttered under her breath.
"I’m not blaming you. I just think you’re overcomplicating things. It was wrong of me to unsettle everyone at a time like this."
"Ye Feng..."
Just then, Li Mucheng, still seated on the sofa, suddenly spoke up—loudly. "Teacher!"
"Huh? Mu... Mucheng? What is it?"
Startled by the volume of her voice, Ye Feng turned his attention away from Xie Yuyan. Seeing Li Mucheng with clenched fists and a determined expression, he couldn’t help but tense up.
Is she... about to say something earth-shattering?
Time seemed to freeze as the air in the living room grew heavy. Finally, Li Mucheng parted her lips and spoke. "Teacher, I have something to say. This concerns all of our lives."
"Ah... go ahead, Mucheng. I’m listening."
Under Ye Feng’s gaze, Li Mucheng declared, "Teacher, I want all of us to live together."
"Live together?"
The other girls were stunned by Li Mucheng’s suggestion, never expecting her to propose such an idea. But soon, their eyes all turned to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng, of course, noticed their gazes. After a brief moment of consideration, he nodded.
"Sure."
"R-really?!"
Li Mucheng clearly hadn’t anticipated such an immediate agreement. But her shock quickly melted into joy, a bright smile spreading across her face.
"Mmm. If it makes everyone’s lives better, then I have no objections. But Mucheng, before asking me, you should’ve checked with the others fi—"
Before Ye Feng could finish, his arms were seized by two figures—Shen Mengli and Su Yuxin, clinging tightly to him.
"This is wonderful! Now I can see Brother Ye Feng every day~"
"Xiao Feng, no matter where you go, I’ll follow you."
"W-well... then it’s settled?"
"Of course."
Xie Yuyan’s voice came from behind Ye Feng, followed by her slender arms wrapping around his head.
"Ye Feng, from now on, we’ll be even closer~"
"Cough, cough, cough..."
As Ye Feng broke into a fit of coughing, the living room erupted in laughter once more.
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately...

Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

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.
