Director Yu...
She calls him so affectionately.
What a meticulous girl. She even considered two possible scenarios.
It's just a handshake when meeting someone. What new tricks could there be?
Lin Yu nodded, signaling everyone to continue.
Ying'er continued to step forward and shook hands with "Aunt Ru Xue."
Then,
She said politely and cheerfully,
"Aunt Ru Xue, you are so beautiful. Welcome to our apartment."
"I get along very well with Maomao. It's also very interesting to work together."
"Aunt Ru Xue, since you rarely come here, would you like to take a look at our working environment?"
Ying'er's response rather surprised Lin Yu.
She seemed so good at socializing, handling the situation gracefully.
It was completely different from Lin Yu's stereotypical impression of her.
So, Ying'er actually knew how to interact normally with strangers!
The abnormal thing happened to "Aunt Ru Xue."
Fortunately,
Ying'er and Maomao were about the same height.
Otherwise,
The following action might not have been possible.
Suddenly,
Maomao quickly pulled back her hand, then gently yet assertively cupped Ying'er's face with both hands.
Immediately afterwards,
Maomao pressed her forehead against Ying'er's, and her nose clearly rubbed against Ying'er's.
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Ying'er: "!!!"
What kind of special greeting is this?
Is this free to watch?
Is Aunt Ru Xue really that eccentric?
Two girls...
Oh!
The seductive scene left Lin Yu completely stunned on the spot.
If he was so shocked,
It was even more unimaginable for Mo Shangying, who was experiencing it firsthand.
Mo Shangying stared wide - eyed, her mind completely blank.
Looking at Maomao's blushing face, it didn't seem like she was deliberately taking advantage of her.
So...
Is Aunt Ru Xue really like this?
Although Ying'er usually liked to play around, it was only with Lin Yu.
She was quite normal when interacting with others.
Suddenly being "attacked" by Maomao,
Ying'er held on for a few seconds, and then her little face also flushed bright red.
Lin Yu watched from the side: "!!!"
Damn it!
He wasn't into this kind of thing...
Why not let go of that girl and come at him instead?
Just as he was thinking about whether to stop them,
Maomao took a deep breath, tried to look intoxicated, and then separated, saying,
"Um! Another sweet - scented little girl."
"She smells like an orchid. She's been raised so well."
Mo Shangying: "!!!"
Lin Yu: "!!!"
She really said the most shocking things.
What nonsense was Maomao spouting?
Considering that Aunt Ru Xue and Maomao were not mother and daughter.
On a daily basis,
If someone talked like Maomao...
Aunt Ru Xue must have some psychological problems!
"That was the first scenario."
"Sorry, Ying'er... Since we're re - enacting the situation, I thought it should be as real as possible."
Maomao covered her face and looked at Mo Shangying apologetically.
Mo Shangying waved her little hand in front of her face:
"It's okay. I was just really startled because I almost got kissed."
"Whew... Is Aunt Ru Xue really that aggressive?"
"For the second scenario, won't she just do something inappropriate right in front of Master?"
Maomao looked at Lin Yu.
It seemed like she was waiting for his permission to perform the second scenario.
The first scenario was already so explosive.
For Lin Yu himself, he definitely had to see the second one!
It wasn't that he liked watching two girls being affectionate with each other.
If he didn't watch,
It would be hard to imagine what strange things Aunt Ru Xue would do when she showed up!
"Maomao, start. Just begin from the handshake part."
Hearing this,
The two girls stood back in their original positions.
Ying'er cooperated very well with Maomao in re - enacting the situation and repeated what she had said before.
But just as they were about to shake hands,
Maomao suddenly dropped her hand, leaving Ying'er's hand hanging awkwardly in front of her.
Lin Yu: "..."
So, was this part about playing a cold - hearted character?
Compared with the previous persona, it was hard to believe it was the same person.
Was Aunt Ru Xue even a split - personality?
Like the character in "Seven Psychopaths"?
However,
Maomao's next reaction made Lin Yu suddenly realize...
He was thinking in the wrong direction!
Maomao withdrew her hand and stood silently on the spot for a few seconds.
She gently stroked Ying'er's head.
Then,
She bypassed Ying'er and walked straight towards Lin Yu.
"She always told me before that ZerO must be a girl."
"She was just worried that I was young and might have unrealistic fantasies."
"At this point, are you still not willing to admit that you are ZerO?"
"Young boy..."
Lin Yu: "..."
Mo Shangying: "!!!"
They understood.
In Maomao's mind, the plan they came up with might not work from the very beginning.
The "all - powerful" Aunt Ru Xue had actually deceived Maomao.
In fact, Aunt Ru Xue had known that ZerO was a boy.
From Maomao's perspective, it was possible for her to mistake Lin Yu for ZerO.
But Lin Yu and Mo Shangying knew very well that this would never happen.
The reason why Mo Shangying was so shocked was even simpler.
It was the first time she had heard that Aunt Ru Xue had always thought ZerO was a girl.
As a top - notch hacker, she had a very sharp sense of security.
The information Maomao revealed made her realize...
She had been "unboxed" without even knowing it!
Aunt Ru Xue was actually an even more terrifying cyber expert!
Lin Yu nodded continuously and replied,
"Maomao, I understand what you mean."
"Let's not consider the second scenario for now."
"If Aunt Ru Xue sees through our plan right from the start,
No matter how many plans we come up with, she might still see through them."
"Let's just assume the first scenario, that she believes Ying'er is ZerO."
Maomao thought along Lin Yu's line of thought and realized it made a lot of sense.
If they added the random variable of "when the plan would be exposed," they might not be able to finish re - enacting the situation in a whole day.
Only by completely regarding Ying'er as ZerO could they save time and effort.
...
In the next nearly an hour,
Maomao and Ying'er's dialogue still stopped about a dozen times.
Through Maomao's performance, Lin Yu was clear about three key pieces of information!
First,
Aunt Ru Xue's full name was Du Ruxue!
She was indeed a blood relative of Maomao, but Maomao didn't specify what kind of relative she was.
It was only known that they had the same surname, but she wasn't Maomao's aunt.
So, she was not from Maomao's father's side of the family.
It was very likely to be similar to the relationship between Shen Buyao and Shen Jiuyi.
On the contrary, it wasn't clear what relationship the Xia sisters had with Aunt Ru Xue.
Second,
Aunt Ru Xue had a strong controlling desire over Maomao.
This controlling desire might not be limited to Maomao not being able to contact outsiders.
After learning that Ying'er and Maomao got along well and were just casually sharing an apartment,
Maomao thought that "Aunt Ru Xue" would even propose:
"Come and live with us. I'll provide a better environment for you!"
This controlling desire was also reflected in Lin Yu's dream.
When facing the question of "we have a child,"
The projection of Aunt Ru Xue in Maomao's subconscious was that the child should have the Du surname and Lin Yu should marry into the family.
It's not simply about being a control freak and directly breaking the two of them up.
Point three.
And the most terrifying one...

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

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?
