[Ding!]
[During the forbidden zone exploration, you obtained and read the proxy sect leader’s private "Daily Life Journal"!]
[Reward: 200 sect contribution points, 400 spirit stones, 3 bottles of Hundred Flowers Dew.]
Listening to Chen Qimeng’s words,
Lin Yu couldn’t help but let his imagination run wild…
Hate her girlfriends?
Not a chance!
He was nothing but grateful, moved, and appreciative.
Lin Yu had been curious before.
What could possibly drive someone like Chen Qimeng—with her personality—to the point of divorce?
Now, the big mystery in his heart finally had an answer.
And what a pleasantly surprising answer it was!
Unable to contain his emotions, Lin Yu said:
"No wonder… no wonder you two never had children after marriage…"
"So your ex-husband was…"
Chen Qimeng replied with self-deprecation:
"If holding hands alone could lead to pregnancy, maybe we would’ve had a child."
"The only time we held hands was during the wedding ceremony."
"I saw with my own eyes how he kept washing his hands repeatedly afterward, his face full of disgust."
"That was the first time I truly felt what it was like to be despised by someone…"
As she spoke,
Chen Qimeng clenched her fists tighter on her lap.
She was usually a forgetful and forgiving person.
Yet this particular memory remained etched vividly in her mind.
Over the years, whenever a man tried to get close to her, that scene would replay in her mind.
Gradually,
That small detail became an indelible wound.
Perhaps for many more years, she would still…
Chen Qimeng: "!!!"
Just as she was lost in her memories,
A pair of hands suddenly reached out and gently clasped hers, cradling them as if they were treasures.
"Maybe ‘she’ was the one who was dirty to begin with."
"Skin this fair and smooth, like a twenty-year-old’s."
"I’ve always wanted to say—your hands are truly beautiful."
"They’re the most beautiful pair I’ve ever seen!"
[Ding!]
[Masterful move! Your heartfelt praise soothes the proxy sect leader’s wounded heart!]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones.]
Chen Qimeng was inexplicably touched by Lin Yu’s words.
The atmosphere—soaking their feet together, their hands intertwined—
Yet she felt no awkwardness or tension.
All she could replay in her mind were Lin Yu’s words.
Lately, she had been trying to follow He Jing’s advice.
To treat Xiao Yu as a "grown man," not just a kid.
Earlier, when she mentioned picking up a pillow,
Chen Qimeng had secretly hoped, even just a little…
That Xiao Yu might understand the years of pain she had endured.
But she never expected—
Xiao Yu had spoken straight to her heart…
"Xiao Yu, you… you’re teasing your aunt."
"At thirty, how could I… haha… how could I…"
"You’re making me laugh so hard I’m almost crying…"
[Ding!]
[Masterful move! Beneath the indifferent facade lies a guarded heart—you’ve successfully touched the proxy sect leader’s soul!]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones.]
Seeing Chen Qimeng’s emotions surging uncontrollably,
Lin Yu stepped out of the foot-soaking tub and moved to her side,
Letting her lean against him.
At a time like this,
No words of comfort were needed.
Speaking would only ruin the moment.
Her tears were a release—years of pent-up grievances finally pouring out.
Rather than trying to do something blindly,
It was better to simply be there for her.
……
About ten minutes later,
Chen Qimeng finally composed herself and hurried to empty the foot-soaking tub.
In the bathroom,
She washed her face in front of the mirror.
Cupping her cheeks, she stared at her reflection, only now feeling the delayed embarrassment.
She had no idea what came over her earlier.
To lose control like that—
Crying like a mess in front of Xiao Yu, even staining his clothes.
The thought made her rush out of the bathroom:
"X-Xiao Yu… let me wash your clothes for you, okay?"
"Maybe it’s just work stress lately, I don’t know why I…"
She tried to salvage some dignity,
But before she could finish,
Lin Yu was already handing her his T-shirt.
"I get it. Adults have stress—crying once in a while is good."
"Thanks for washing it, Aunt Qimeng. I’ll pick it up tomorrow night."
"And maybe mooch another foot soak."
"I’ve been learning massage therapy—it works on feet too."
"Consider it my thank-you for the shoes you bought me. I’ll give you a proper massage."
In this atmosphere,
Chen Qimeng couldn’t possibly refuse.
Her heart warmed as she nodded, only to accidentally catch sight of Lin Yu’s toned physique.
She quickly averted her gaze: "…"
She hadn’t noticed before.
She thought Xiao Yu was just skinny.
Does he work out at school too?
"The shoes fit perfectly!"
"It’s getting late—you should rest, Auntie."
"I’ll head back to sleep. Message me anytime if you need anything."
The effects of the Forbidden Zone Exploration Talisman hadn’t worn off yet,
But tonight’s mood was best left here.
Leaving room for more later.
Pushing the relationship too fast would only backfire.
He’d already experienced the talisman’s power to the fullest.
Next time,
Maybe he’d try it with another sect friend—
They couldn’t all be immortal maidens, right?
……
The foot soak had washed away his fatigue.
Lin Yu returned to his room, relaxed and refreshed.
As soon as he stepped inside,
A rustling sound reached his ears.
Lin Yu turned: "!!!"
Snap!
Before he could react,
The bedroom light flicked on.
Mo Shangying stood there, staring at Lin Yu’s bare torso,
Her eyes a mix of shock and poorly concealed glee.
Ye Mengfu, standing by the desk, caught sight of Lin Yu’s state—
She spun around instantly, her back to him.
For a few seconds, the room was frozen in silence.
Mo Shangying broke it first:
"Shifu…"
"Did you and the nurse have such a wild time…"
"That you lost your shirt?"
Lin Yu quickly grabbed a robe from the rack:
"You two—"
"How did you get in?"
"Why didn’t you tell me?"
Mo Shangying shrugged innocently:
"We just got here a minute ago—didn’t even have time to turn on the light."
"Your door wasn’t locked!"
"And we did text you. Check your phone if you don’t believe me."
"Ohhh~"
"Too busy playing around to check your messages?"
Lin Yu: "…"
Lately, especially at night,
Plenty of people had been messaging him nonstop.
When he was focused on something, he often missed notifications.
He figured he’d reply to everyone at once later—
Like an emperor reviewing memorials in bed.
Who knew
He’d walk into such a surprise!
Since lunch,
He hadn’t had time to chat much with these two.
With the sudden appearance of a "new disciple," it was no surprise Mo Shangying had questions.
Coming to his room this late—
She must be here to discuss tomorrow’s "dojo challenge" plan!
Sure enough,
What came next—
Mo Shangying pulled the bashful Ye Mengfu closer and asked Lin Yu with a grin:
"Master, shouldn’t you explain it to us?"
"Is Nurse Sister my 'senior sister' or 'junior sister'?"
"Our sect seems unexpectedly huge!"
"Hehehe..."
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!! (Pure love 1v1, light-hearted, no angst, single female lead, villain, reincarnation, lackey)
