"It's been over a week since summer break started, hasn't it? And you still haven’t come to pay your respects to your big sister?"
"Hmph, hmph hmph..."
"Did you hook up with some little flirt and try to run away from me?"
"Not a chance!"
"Let me see... if you’ve grown at all!"
No sooner had she spoken than Mo Shangying lunged at Lin Yu like some bizarre creature.
Even a freshly neutered Ragdoll cat wouldn’t be this wild!
Mo Shangying was about the same height as the Chi sisters—petite and compact.
If Chi Qingchi was the sweet, pure "2D otaku girl,"
then Mo Shangying was the absolute embodiment of a "corrupted maiden."
Her eyes brimmed with genuine mischief, radiating an energy that screamed she was ready to pounce on Lin Yu at any moment.
Weirdo. Freaking weirdo!
In his past life, the naive Lin Yu had never encountered a girl like this.
Every time Mo Shangying caught and "adjusted" him, he’d be terrified out of his wits.
She chased, he ran.
She blocked, he fled.
She went for the kill, he howled in despair!
Over time, Lin Yu developed a near-conditioned reflex of sheer terror at the sight of Mo Shangying.
But the Lin Yu of now?
This was pure benefits.
Why the hell should he be scared?
Watching Mo Shangying leap at him, Lin Yu didn’t dodge or flinch.
Instead, he spread his arms wide, caught her effortlessly, and even pretended to be knocked over, tumbling backward onto the plush bed behind him.
The two of them bounced slightly on the mattress, its luxurious softness making Lin Yu sigh inwardly—Damn, being rich really is nice. Even the bed feels this amazing?
Once lying down,
Lin Yu quickly transitioned from a "1" position to a full-blown "da" sprawl.
Mo Shangying peered through her disheveled hair, her eyes filled with confusion: "???"
Now it was her turn to be bewildered.
At this stage, shouldn’t Little Yu be scrambling to escape and beg for mercy like usual?
What was going on today?
This damn brat was being suspiciously compliant!
Lin Yu smirked inwardly.
Just as I thought.
Past me was an idiot.
So timid, so scared—even developed a muscle memory of fear.
Couldn’t even see that Mo Shangying was all talk.
The moment I actually played along, she froze up.
Come on then?
Weren’t you all high and mighty?
Always yapping about, "Little Yu, you fake eunuch, this Empress is gonna make sure you’re thoroughly dealt with!"
But when it’s time to act, you chicken out.
"Hmm? Little Yu, are you mad? Why aren’t moving?" Mo Shangying tilted her head, suspicion lacing her voice.
To her, Lin Yu was still the same boy she’d always known.
His sudden lack of resistance could only mean she’d pushed too far and upset him.
But their little games had never pissed him off before.
What was different today?
"Not mad at all. Why would I be?"
"It’s not like I can fight back against you anyway."
"Better to surrender than struggle pointlessly."
"Not anger—just... enlightenment!"
Mo Shangying: "???"
Enlightenment?
Had he actually matured overnight?
The boy who used to whimper and flee was now acting like a battle-hardened veteran, leaving Mo Shangying utterly lost.
After a few seconds of thought, a fang peeked from her lips as she grinned deviously:
"Hehehe..."
"Little Yu, trying to bluff me, are you?"
"Pretending you’re not nervous when you’re shaking inside."
"You think I won’t do it? I’m an eagle hunting sparrows!"
Lin Yu grabbed Mo Shangying’s smooth arm, laughing:
"Hahaha, Ying’er, I told you to study more. Your biology’s weak."
"At best, you’re a female eagle. A male eagle? You don’t even have the equipment."
"Don’t hold back—come on, show me what a real eagle can do..."
The next moment,
both of them widened their eyes in shock.
Lin Yu: She’s not backing down?!
Mo Shangying: He’s serious?!
Lin Yu: "..."
Mo Shangying: "..."
[Ding!]
[Masterful move! Your bold, proactive intimacy leaves the unorthodox Array Formation Hall Elder stunned—affection level skyrockets!]
[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones.]
Simultaneously,
a translucent status panel flickered to life beside Mo Shangying.
The [Host Affinity Level] stat began climbing rapidly, updating every second.
[42%]
[43%]
[45%]
[...]
[50%]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, Host! Your bond with the Array Formation Hall Elder has deepened!]
[Reward: 50 Sect Contribution Points, 50 Spirit Stones.]
[...]
Finally, the [Host Affinity Level] settled at [56%]—
even higher than Aunt Qimeng’s current rating!
The [Dao Companions (Soul/Body Cultivation)] stat unlocked:
[Dao Companions Count: 0/0]
Their eyes locked, bodies frozen in place.
One unspoken truth passed between them:
She (he) isn’t joking!
A full half-minute of silence.
The room was so quiet, only their gradually quickening breaths could be heard.
The heat coiling in Lin Yu’s chest intensified.
My first time after rebirth—coming this fast?
Without any preparation?!
Out of nowhere, Lin Yu blurted: "Your hands are so cold—you might have poor circulation."
Mo Shangying’s grin widened. "Heheh, and you’re burning up, aren’t you?"
Still playing with fire!
If not now, when?
Using his formidable core strength, Lin Yu sat up abruptly, ready to launch an all-out offensive.
But then—
"Wait!"
Mo Shangying suddenly pulled back, yanking her hand free and hopping off the bed.
She scurried to her quad-monitor PC setup and plopped onto the chair in a weird crouch.
Tap tap tap tap...
The rapid clatter of keyboard keys followed.
Lin Yu: "???"
Just like that?
Start and stop on a whim?
Did I misread the mood?
Was Mo Shangying just bluffing after all?
This was bullshit.
Teasing him into arousal, then ditching?
But if it was just talk... that didn’t add up either.
The soaring affinity stats and the look in Mo Shangying’s eyes—seasoned veteran Lin Yu couldn’t have misjudged that.
Grumbling, Lin Yu adjusted himself and stomped over to Mo Shangying’s workstation.
Abruptly, she stopped typing and held up four fingers.
"Next Thursday! The optimal timing is next Thursday!"
Lin Yu: "???"
The random declaration left him baffled.
"What about next Thursday?"
Still crouched on her chair, Mo Shangying pointed directly at Lin Yu’s predicament.
"Based on my cycle calculations... next Thursday is the least likely day for pregnancy!"
Lin Yu: "!!!"
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
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...
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
