7:00 AM.

[Today is another hopeful day!]
[Host, please continue exploring the Path of Joyful Union. Strive to become the pillar of the sect!]
The system's notification chime rang on time.
However, this time it wasn't a wake-up call.
Lin Yu was already bustling around the kitchen, preparing breakfast.
He couldn't help but wonder—if he traveled abroad, would the system adjust for time zones?
Lin Yu paused his cooking as he watched the pot of water that hadn't yet boiled.
Eagerly, he checked the refreshed system information.

Lin Yu scrolled through the information panel.
Though his status remained "Chief Disciple," the surprises today were plentiful.
The biggest delight came from the "new disciple" Maomao.
She appeared in both urgent and daily missions.
Better yet—many daily tasks could now be delegated to her.
She works, Lin Yu reaps spirit stones and contributions.
Is this the privilege of being a senior disciple?
Bliss!
If more juniors joined, could he rely on these "automatic spirit stone dispensers" to laze his way to becoming sect master?
Wait…
If his rank surpassed everyone else, why would he need newcomers?
Being chief disciple still wasn’t high enough!
Another surprise came from the ever-dependable Little Fufu.
Her unreserved constitution was perfection.
After soul-bonding, the dual-bond trial followed immediately.
With steady progress this Wednesday…
Thursday: the rebellious Ying'er.
Friday: his sweetheart Chi Qingshui.
Saturday, the young artist Ye Mengfu.
These days are truly becoming more and more promising!
Today's physical status buffs:
Most of them are unsurprising.
The unexpected one is Ying'er—last night, she actually dreamed of him?
Lin Yu didn't cast any dream-entering spell on her, so he wonders...
How impressive was he in her dream?
Another noteworthy status update:
Antique Sister's 【Homesickness】?
Compared to yesterday's +60%, it has surged by two and a half times.
Based on past experience, such a drastic change usually only happens when a major relationship milestone is reached.
Thinking carefully...
Aside from the group dinner yesterday, was there anything special between him and Shen Buyao?
Absolutely nothing!
Where did this 【Homesickness】 come from?
Perhaps it will only be confirmed tonight when they visit the Ghost Market to finalize the antique deal.
As for the newly refreshed items in the system shop and their exact functions—
No point in wild guesses now.
Once enough spirit stones are saved up today, buying them will reveal the answers.
"Spinning round and round, we become~ deep fingerprints~"
While waiting for the water to boil in the kitchen to cook noodles, the phone rings first.
Lin Yu pulls out his phone:
【Xia Yiwei】
"Hey? Is the angel in white just off night shift?"
Lin Yu answers the call with a teasing tone.
Soon, Xia Yiwei's drowsy voice comes through:
"Little Master, yawn... I'm suffering!"
"The head nurse took leave today, so there's no one covering the morning shift."
"Do you have any idea how painful it is for a worker to go from night shift straight to day shift?"
Lin Yu really wants to retort:
I’ve suffered worse than you!
Do you know the agony of a corporate slave who only gets one weekend off in three months?
Haven’t we all been through it?
Except... hey! I’ve made it out!
"Vivi, stop beating around the bush. What do you need from me?"
Xia Yiwei chuckles over the phone:
"Hehe, as expected, nothing escapes Little Master. So sharp."
"Since I can’t go home this morning, could you do me a favor and take care of Maomao?"
Of course.
Judging by the urgent task, it’s easy to guess the purpose of Xia Yiwei’s call.
This morning,
Aside from attending Senior Tang’s 【Mortal World Guidance】 later,
He’ll also have to multitask with 【Elder Guiding the Newbie】 for Maomao.

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

reezy rom-com) Good news: Jiang Liu is quite the ladies' man. Bad news: He’s lost his memory. Lying in a hospital bed, Jiang Liu listens to a parade of goddesses spouting "absurd claims," feeling like the world is one giant game of Werewolf. "Jiang Liu, I’m your first love." "Jiang Liu, you’re my boyfriend—she’s your ex." "Jiang Liu, we’re close friends who’ve shared a bed, remember?" "Jiang Liu, I want to have your baby." The now-lucid Jiang Liu is convinced this must be some elaborate scam... until someone drops the bombshell: "The day before you lost your memory, you confessed your feelings—and got into a relationship." Jiang Liu is utterly baffled. So... who the hell is his actual girlfriend?! ... Before recovering his memories, Jiang Liu must navigate this minefield of lies and sincerity, fighting to protect himself from these women’s schemes. But things spiral even further out of control as more people show up at his doorstep—each with increasingly unhinged antics. On the bright side, the memories he lost due to overwhelming trauma seem to be resurfacing. Great news, right? So why are they all panicking now?
