Three minutes later.
Ye Mengfu stood motionless: "..."
Lin Yu leaned against the window: "..."
Damn.
Today was truly eye-opening.
The divine sisters in this apartment were like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea—each with their own unique skills.
And this tall girl in front of him? Her "skill stats" were maxed out.
Lin Yu couldn’t help but wonder—if he stood behind her for half an hour,
would she keep facing the door like she was being punished?
"Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong..."
A phone rang from the pocket of Ye Mengfu’s outfit.
Lin Yu straightened up, curious to see how she’d react.
But—
Ye Mengfu remained frozen: "..."
Lin Yu was thoroughly defeated. Breaking the silence first, he asked:
"Your phone’s ringing. Aren’t you gonna answer?"
At his voice, Ye Mengfu’s shoulders visibly twitched.
Then,
her hands fumbled around inside her pockets.
She didn’t even pull out the phone, but the ringing stopped.
Lin Yu: "..."
Seriously?!
You’re just not gonna answer?
Still, her reaction just now gave Lin Yu an idea.
She might not speak, but she responded to his words.
He decided to test it further: "Turn around."
Ye Mengfu’s stiff posture visibly slumped.
Under Lin Yu’s astonished gaze, she slowly bowed her head and turned.
Lin Yu: "!!!"
This obedient?!
Could she really be his online girlfriend?
Otherwise, why would she listen to him so readily?
A children’s book illustrator as his online girlfriend… not bad at all.
Working with kids and art, plus being this socially awkward—she must be incredibly pure.
Though she was two years older, in terms of presence, Lin Yu clearly had the upper hand.
Bolstered, he pointed at the door and said:
"You made me wait at the door forever. Why didn’t you open it? Open it now."
Hearing this, Ye Mengfu peeked up at him.
But the moment she noticed Lin Yu watching, she quickly lowered her head again, fishing for her keys in her pocket.
[Ding!]
[Masterstroke move! The Joyous Sect Talisman Envoy actually opened her fragrant boudoir for you—a golden chance to deepen your bond!]
[Reward: 20 Spirit Stones]
Joyous Sect Talisman Envoy!
So that was Ye Mengfu’s sect title.
Sounded way more impressive than Chi Qingchi’s "Bell Envoy."
Who would’ve thought?
His "online girlfriend" was this docile and sweet.
Back then, he’d been a fool to let such a comfortable, good girl slip away.
Just as Lin Yu was lost in thought—
Ye Mengfu, having unlocked the door, swiftly slipped inside.
And immediately tried to slam it shut...
Lin Yu’s eyes widened: "!!!"
Oh, come on!
He’d just silently praised her, and now she was pulling a vanishing act?
At this distance, with his reflexes, there was no way he’d let her shut him out.
Trying to lock her boyfriend outside?
Unacceptable!
Inside the room,
Ye Mengfu let out a tiny sigh of relief after slipping in.
...
Just ten minutes earlier,
she’d gone up to the third floor.
Hoping to see her only close friend in the apartment—Mo Shangying.
But before she could knock, strange noises from inside stopped her cold.
"Stop… it hurts… I can’t take it… mmm…"
Mo Shangying’s voice, mixed with a guy’s:
"You’re holding up well? Let me go harder, here it comes..."
The only guy in the apartment?
There was only one possibility!
...
Ye Mengfu was socially anxious, not stupid.
She knew enough about what went on between men and women.
After rushing back to her room, it took her forever to calm down.
Her best friend, in broad daylight, doing… that… and she’d accidentally eavesdropped.
Flustered, she decided to go out for a walk in the park to clear her head.
But of course—
She ran straight into Lin Yu on the stairs!
Maybe it was the guilt of "eavesdropping" that made her feel like a thief.
Her first instinct? Avoid him at all costs.
Yet somehow,
Lin Yu had cornered her.
Thankfully, she’d managed to unlock the door and dart inside.
As long as the door was shut, whether demons or monsters raged outside, she’d be safe!
But—
Ye Mengfu pushed with all her might, only to realize the door wouldn’t close.
Peeking through the gap, her heart nearly stopped.
Lin Yu’s foot was wedged in the doorway!
Worried she might hurt him if she kept pushing, she instantly let up.
Not that it mattered.
With Lin Yu’s current physical prowess,
there was no way a slightly taller girl could overpower him.
Compared to the faint pain in his foot, Lin Yu’s irritation burned hotter.
Oh, "Dreaming in the Rain" (her online alias),
you think you can lock your boyfriend out and hide?
Today, he’d teach her who was in charge.
The moment Ye Mengfu eased up, Lin Yu shoved the door open and strode in like he owned the place.
Ye Mengfu instantly reverted to startled-deer mode, scrambling backward until she bumped into an easel on the floor.
Click.
Lin Yu locked the door behind him.
At the sound, Ye Mengfu panicked completely.
Staring at the lock, she finally forced out two words:
"Don’t..."
She was too tense.
In public, she could barely speak to strangers.
Now, trapped in her own room with a guy?
That pitiful "don’t" nearly unleashed the beast in Lin Yu.
It was straight out of a cheesy romance scene, leaving his throat dry.
Lin Yu adopted the domineering tone of a "boyfriend" and demanded:
"You say ‘don’t’ and I’m supposed to listen? You giving me orders now?"
"You ran the second you saw me. Might as well have ‘guilty conscience’ written on your face."
"Can’t even keep a secret to save your life."
"So… it’s you, right?"
Lin Yu’s question, of course, referred to her being his online girlfriend.
But to Ye Mengfu, it meant something else entirely.
Her fingers twisted nervously in front of her as she kept her head down, refusing to answer.
Lin Yu feigned leaving:
"Fine. Won’t admit it? No problem."
"I’ll just go tell everyone about the sneaky things you’ve done to me."
"Starting with Mo Shangying upstairs..."
That hit Ye Mengfu’s weak spot.
Mo Shangying was her only friend in the apartment!
Even if she’d only overheard by accident, if Lin Yu framed it as her "eavesdropping,"
how could she ever face Mo Shangying again?
For someone with social anxiety, making friends was hard enough!
"Stop..."
Ye Mengfu blurted out, her voice louder than usual.
Lin Yu smirked, turning back.
"Ready to confess now?"
Ye Mengfu had no choice.
With a resigned nod, she surrendered.

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!
