Before long,
All the roommates who had received the message gathered in the dining area.
Fortunately, the current number of roommates wasn’t too overwhelming.
Otherwise,
The communal dining space in the apartment might not have been able to accommodate everyone.

A simple bowl of Breeze Noodles alone earned Lin Yu 210 spirit stones.
Following the routine, the cat who had just returned from watering the flowers added sect contributions and extra spirit stones as the cherry on top.
Chi Qingchi: "Munch munch… Lin! You’re amazing! Can I have another bowl? Munch munch…"
Chen Qimeng: "The noodles you made are really fragrant. I had no idea your cooking skills were so much better than mine!"
Chi Qingshui: "The flavor is excellent. Thank you for your effort, Lin Yu."
Mo Shangying: "I was feeling a bit chilly when I came downstairs, but now I’m all warm and cozy!"
Ye Mengfu: "Delicious…"
Tang Yimian: "Junior Lin Yu can actually cook? What an impressive guy."
Cat: "Incredible! The taste and texture are this good?"
Watching the satisfied and blissful expressions on everyone’s faces,
Lin Yu crossed his arms and began forming a new idea…
After massage parlors, writing novels, and debuting as a singer,
Another viable career path for the future had emerged—
Opening a restaurant!
With more and more spiritual cuisine recipes under his belt, wasn’t it only a matter of time before he became a multi-starred master chef?
Gathering everyone in the dining area, Lin Yu had his own calculations.
When a man has too many confidantes, it’s easy to forget things.
Casually checking the message boxes in the past was a hassle!
But now, with the new spiritual dish, Breeze Noodles,
One bowl was worth five checks in the past.
One bowl a day—effective, affordable, and convenient!
A single bowl could cover three floors effortlessly!
After finishing his meal, Lin Yu stood up and swept his gaze across the room.
Blink blink, blink blink…
Message boxes appeared above the heads of every female sect member.
(2,000 words of content omitted, highlighting only the most crucial and far-reaching information)
After reviewing everything, the known information could be disregarded.
The newly emerged tasks and previously unfinished ones were today’s main focus.

After reviewing everything,
Lin Yu had quite a few tasks to tackle today.
In the morning, he focused on Tang Yimian and the cat, heading to the zoo for some leisure.
The new daily task on Elder Tang particularly piqued Lin Yu’s curiosity.
Which school administrator had the audacity to lead a group of elementary students to "visit the monkey mountain"?
Clearly not cut out to be the Jade Emperor—never been bullied by monkeys before, huh?
Without Lin Yu today, the group would probably fall apart!
Bound by duty,
He had no choice but to accompany [Elder Tang] on this journey to the Western… Western Suburb Zoo, to remind those wild monkeys who their true "king" was!
After breakfast,
Tang Yimian approached Lin Yu privately and reminded him:
"Junior Lin Yu, the taxi I booked will arrive at 8:30. We have about forty minutes left."
"No need to rush. I just wanted to remind you—I didn’t dare mention this earlier with so many people in the dining area."
As expected of a senior.
Though a bit wordy, her social awareness was commendable.
Announcing it publicly wouldn’t have been impossible,
But it would’ve invited unnecessary gossip.
Better to avoid extra trouble.
Now that she’d done her part politely, it was Lin Yu’s turn to reciprocate.
"Senior, there’s an unexpected situation I’d like to discuss."
"Earlier at the table, I introduced our new roommate, the cat."
"She doesn’t have much experience with communal living, and Sister Weiwei is on the morning shift, so she asked me to look after her."
"Would it be possible for her to come with us to the zoo?"
"She’ll buy her own ticket and just stay close to our group without interfering."
Since this was a school-organized activity,
Getting Lin Yu involved as an outsider volunteer
Must have already required considerable effort from Tang Yimian.
Now, adding another person last minute naturally needed her approval.
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!
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.

ither go to a cultivation world where a single sword strike can defeat ten thousand enemies. Or they travel back to historical dynasties to alter history and wield imperial power.
