Although Sister was quite inept,
She remained the legendary Bull King.
But no matter what, she was the first girl Gu Luo had ever fallen for.
The bond between them could never be severed in this lifetime.
Luo Shuhe also wanted to punish Luo Shuning, but given the current circumstances, she had to pull her along to resist Luo Shuling.
She was hopelessly in love with Gu Luo, but she also knew he was extremely soft-hearted and could easily fall for his younger sister’s tricks.
After all, that was exactly how she had risen to her current position.
But there was no helping it.
From Luo Shuhe’s understanding of their mother, Gu Luo being with both sisters was already pushing the limits—one misstep, and it would be a plunge into the abyss.
Let alone adding another into the mix.
She truly couldn’t fathom what Luo Shuling was thinking.
Right now, her priority was to prop her sister back up.
When the idea of including Luo Shuning was brought up, Gu Luo didn’t respond immediately, hesitating instead.
First, they were still in the middle of punishing Shuning—adding her now would render the so-called punishment meaningless.
Second, this was originally supposed to be a private date with Ximan and Xuexue. Bringing Shuhe along already felt unfair to them, and adding Shuning would make it even harder to justify.
Sure enough, Gu Ximan’s expression darkened instantly. She immediately protested, "Sister He, isn’t this a bit much?"
"How so?" Luo Shuhe countered coolly.
"Sister Ning just rejected Gu Luo not long ago. Going out together now would just be awkward," Gu Ximan argued logically, then added after a pause,
"Besides, Gu Luo isn’t the one organizing this KTV trip. You and Sister Qing aren’t close, so just tagging along wouldn’t be appropriate, right?"
Her words were clearly fueled by frustration.
But there was no helping it. For her, this outing was supposed to be Gu Luo’s way of making it up to her and Xuexue. Having to wait in line already annoyed her, and now Luo Shuhe wanted to take a share too?
How could she not be furious?
Of course, the biggest reason was that Gu Ximan still held a grudge against Luo Shuning.
She always judged people, not situations.
Whoever made Gu Luo suffer, she’d bite back.
In response, Luo Shuhe’s tone remained indifferent. "No problem. I’ll talk to Shuling later and have Sister Qing personally invite me."
"You—"
Gu Ximan’s irritation peaked. Without thinking, she blurted, "Fine, then. For your date with Gu Luo tomorrow, why don’t you bring me and Xuexue along too?"
At this, Luo Shuhe finally turned her gaze toward the "spectator" in the corner, her heart rippling with emotion.
She hadn’t expected Gu Luo to tell Gu Ximan—the most jealous of them all—about their date.
Was he using this to hint at her?
Hinting that she was now the one in his heart?
Very likely.
Not bad.
At least he wasn’t so shameless as to harbor improper thoughts about the little sister he’d practically raised.
Even if they weren’t related by blood.
Thinking this, Luo Shuhe’s lips curled slightly as she replied generously, "Of course, you can come."
Inwardly, she added—If you’re here to eat dog food, I’ll make sure you’re stuffed.
"You—"
Gu Ximan was momentarily speechless.
She hadn’t expected Luo Shuhe to actually agree.
Now, how could she refuse her joining the KTV trip?
"Sister He, Ximan was just joking," Lu Xuexue smoothly intervened with a smile. "Let’s all go sing together this afternoon. More people means more fun. We can ask Sister Ling if she wants to come too."
Seeing Gu Ximan about to argue further, she quickly cut in,
"I’m so happy! Just thinking about all the time we’ll get to spend together in the future makes me feel so blessed."
She emphasized the word "time" ever so slightly.
Gu Ximan immediately caught the underlying message and snapped out of it.
Right. There would be plenty of time in the future—no need to fixate on this.
She could always find another chance to drag Gu Luo out on a solo date.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
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.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
