After the three women simultaneously called out Lin Yu's name,
they exchanged surprised glances with each other.
Chi Qingshui: "You go first."
Shen Buyao: "You go first."
Xia Yiwei: "You go first."
Chi Qingshui: "..."
Shen Buyao: "..."
Xia Yiwei: "..."
Chi Qingshui: "Lin Yu, this..."
Shen Buyao: "College student, I heard..."
Xia Yiwei: "Little Lin Yu, your phone..."
Chi Qingshui: "Let the older sisters speak first."
Shen Buyao: "No, you go ahead."
Xia Yiwei: "You two should talk first."
Lin Yu: "..."
What the heck, ladies?
Practicing your synchronized routine here?
This whole spectacle
allowed the rest of the group, not far behind, to catch up.
Surrounded by a few younger girls, Chen Qimeng watched the scene unfold like juicy gossip.
Mo Shangying: "Qimeng-jie, Little Yu sure is popular."
Chen Qimeng: "Yeah, everyone seems to love hanging out with him lately."
Ye Mengfu: "Burp—"
Chen Qimeng: "What’s wrong? Xiao Fu, no one’s blaming you, don’t… don’t panic."
Ye Mengfu: "Burp—Burp!"
At this critical moment,
only the voice of reason could save the day!
Chi Qingchi stepped forward: "Big sisters, should I go first?"
The three women turned to Xiao Chi: "..."
Lin Yu: "Hahaha, hilarious!"
Seeing the crowd fall silent and the spotlight now on her,
Chi Qingchi took a deep breath and unleashed a rapid-fire monologue:
"The first shop at the entrance of Food Street sells amazing takoyaki, but their other grilled stuff is just okay."
"The third stall’s special-sauce grilled cold noodles are practically a must-eat for Pingchuan University students!"
"The sixth shop is a rotating hot pot place—not great for group meals—but their sweet-and-sour spare ribs are to-go perfection!"
"The eighth stall..."
"The twelfth..."
"Then the second from the left..."
"The seventh is a mixed stir-fry spot with free refills on drinks and beer!"
"So here’s the plan: split up and grab takeout from shops one, three, six, and twelve on the right, then two, four, and five on the left."
"Regroup at the seventh shop on the left, order dishes, pour drinks, and enjoy the ultimate foodie adventure!"
The crowd: "!!"
A certain catgirl backed away warily, as if facing doom: "!!!"
"Such… such insane memory!"
"So the dorm has… a hidden mastermind?!"
Lin Yu was utterly awestruck—
no longer just mentally impressed but physically applauding Chi Qingchi like mad.
This was the kind of "generalissimo"-level strategy only someone who’d conquered Food Street multiple times could devise.
And not just any general—more like the Marshal of the Heavenly River commanding 100,000 aquatic troops!
Xia Yiwei: "Pfft—HA! Perfect, Xiao Chi! Let’s do it—my treat!"
Shen Buyao: "College really teaches you things, huh?"
Mo Shangying: "Hehe, that’s like a year’s worth of meals for me!"
Ye Mengfu: "Burp—C-can’t eat… more…"
Chi Qingshui: "Xiao Chi… when exactly did you try that ‘little beer’ you mentioned?"
Chi Qingchi: "What beer? I never drink. Never touched alcohol. Did I say that? You misheard, sis."
Chi Qingshui: "STAY RIGHT THERE!"
As the Chi sisters launched into a chase scene, with sugar mommy Xia Yiwei rushing after them—
The only person left to chat with Lin Yu was Shen Buyao.
Shen Buyao grabbed Lin Yu's shoulder and dragged him forward a few steps.
"College student, I'm almost done raising the money. Don't sell it to someone else in a hurry."
"Just now, Ying'er said you're the captain of the late - night football - watching brigade."
"Captain, recruit a new member, will you?"
"Hey, where do you guys usually watch football?"
Lin Yu looked at Shen Buyao and struggled to find the right words.
Shen Buyao asked anxiously,
"Why can't you tell your sister?"
Lin Yu straightened his chest and said with an unnatural expression,
"Late at night, in my room, secretly!"
Shen Buyao: "???"
"Damn it, you're not even justified but still acting so bold?"
"I'm too embarrassed to expose you. Is that really football you're watching?"
Lin Yu: "..."
[Ding!]
[Limited - time mission released: A crisis is approaching. The host and the beautiful women of the Joyous Sect have entered the mortal world and been discovered by the Fiery Sea Demonic Gang. The Fiery Sea Demons are ready to act. Please protect the safety of the sect sisters within the limited time, help them resolve or let them resolve the crisis. At the same time, strongly assert the sovereignty of fellow sect members!]
[Time limit: two hours.]
[Mission rewards: Unknown sect contributions, unknown spiritual stones, unknown number of free draws in the system mall (strongly related to the number of protected sect friends).]
Lin Yu: "???"
Fiery Sea Demons...
And it's a gang?
What era is this? Still playing the gangster game?
Where are there so many hooligans?
Why not throw in a Grim Reaper to make it a trio?
Dealing with so many female roommates at the same time was already giving him a huge headache.
Now the demon bosses are also joining the fun?
Then fight!
There is bound to be an extraordinary dinner on this ordinary Food Street tonight!
...
After arriving at the Food Street in high spirits,
Everyone followed the suggestion of the "Food Marshal" and started to split up for shopping.
Finally,
Through some intentional or unintentional arrangements,
Lin Yu and Ye Mengfu were grouped together to go to a shop deep inside to buy delicious cold mixed dishes for everyone.
When they didn't know where, when, or in what way the "Fiery Sea Demons" would strike,
Choosing to be with the shy girl with the weakest self - protection ability in the team was undoubtedly the right choice.
If some ill - intentioned college students with pointy heads came to strike up a conversation,
Little Fufu might not be able to say a word on the spot.
Even if there were other teammates around,
They were a "gang" after all!
There was also an especially important point...
After making sure there was no one else in sight, Lin Yu looked around carefully.
He boldly hooked his finger and pulled Ye Mengfu's hand over.
[Ding!]
[Brilliant move! This intimate act in the mortal world makes the Taoist companion shy and excited!]
[Reward: 50 spiritual stones]
Tonight, Ye Mengfu rarely didn't wear a hoodie.
Instead, she changed into a painted white short - sleeved shirt that fit well and showed off her hidden charm.
Paired with denim shorts, her figure was incredibly proportionate.
Thinking that this cute and eye - catching girl had just become his "Taoist companion" today,
It would be a lie to say he didn't feel a sense of accomplishment.
Feeling Lin Yu's little move,
Ye Mengfu nervously looked back, like a shy young lady sneaking out for a tryst.
Nervous as she was,
Her little hand didn't pull away...
...

【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.)

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
