Chi Qingchi: "!!!"
The sudden news left Xiao Chi completely stunned.
For a moment.
She didn't even know what to say.
Her rivalry with Xiang Tiange...
Was it really ending today?
Two years had passed so quickly.
So fast it felt like everything happened just yesterday, leaving no time to prepare for goodbyes.
"Hey hey hey, Stinky Pool, what's with that face?"
"I'm just quitting the club, not dying!"
"Don't make it seem like some tragic farewell, hahaha."
"Alright, I'm off. Feel free to visit our campus sometime~"
"Bye-bye~"
Xiang Tiange finished with a laugh, watching as Xiao Chi numbly nodded.
Then she stepped around Chi Qingchi and moved forward to catch up with her group.
Walking side by side in opposite directions,
Xiang Tiange's smile gradually faded...
Who could willingly accept such an ending?
The little world of anime and manga was like a safe harbor.
Here, they could forever remain children who "never wanted to grow up."
Here, they had friends, perseverance, shared dreams, and a youth that belonged to them...
"Xiang Tiange!"
Before she had gone far,
Chi Qingchi quickly turned and hurried after her.
Xiang Tiange took a deep breath, forcing her signature smile back onto her face:
"What now? Don't tell me you're still trying to show off your gold medal?"
"I've got nine of those, so don't get too cocky!"
Chi Qingchi stepped closer, struggling to suppress the turmoil in her heart.
Her voice came out slightly hoarse:
"Xiang Tiange, we..."
"Have never actually shaken hands, have we?"
Xiang Tiange: "!!!"
Chi Qingchi: "..."
Looking at the hand Xiao Chi had extended,
Xiang Tiange fell silent briefly before finally completing the handshake they'd owed each other for two years...
Chi Qingchi: "I'll come visit you at Normal University. When... we'll see."
Xiang Tiange: "Hahaha, sure! Our cafeteria is amazing—my meal card's all yours when you come."
Chi Qingchi: "Really? Don't lie to me. I eat a lot, you know."
Xiang Tiange: "Yeah, I can tell."
"..."
The two girls gradually talked more than they ever had.
In their two years as rivals,
A handshake wasn't the only thing they'd left unsettled.
It felt like they'd spoken more today than in the past two years combined.
Eventually, things escalated to the point where...
Lin Yu had to pack up all the leftover food Xiao Chi couldn't finish into takeout containers!
Though no one at the venue stopped them—winning teams had privileges—
Still...
Taking "all-you-can-eat" food to-go?
Lin Yu was riding on Xiao Chi's coattails, finally doing something he'd always wanted to try but never dared!
On the way back with the anime club,
A girl with a cute, round face and straight bangs slowed her steps, carrying two bags as she moved to the very back of the group.
And the person walking at the very end was... Vice President Zhao Yuhao!
"Hello, senior! I'm a soon-to-be sophomore at Normal University."
Zhao Yuhao: "???"
Lin Yu: "???"
Oh?
A girl was actually initiating conversation with the vice president?
The most surprised person wasn't Lin Yu—it was Zhao Yuhao himself.
Hearing her introduction,
Zhao Yuhao stiffly replied:
"Oh, hi. I'm Zhao Yuhao, a soon-to-be junior and vice president of Pingchuan University's Anime Club."
The straight-banged girl smiled:
"I know! I knew you were the vice president."
"When you were running around the venue this morning shouting 'That Kaneki over there is so cool!', I asked Senior Xiang Tiange about you."
Zhao Yuhao: "..."
Having his undercover efforts to promote the team suddenly exposed like this left him at a loss for words.
And worse—
When he'd tried promoting near their rival club's area, he'd gotten caught red-handed!
Was this girl...
Here to mock him?
"It was all for the club's publicity, nothing else," Zhao Yuhao awkwardly replied.
The girl nodded quietly before continuing:
"I handle publicity for my club too. I really admire your courage and creativity, senior."
"If I could come up with ideas like yours, I could help our club a lot too."
"Senior, could we exchange..."
Before she could finish,
Zhao Yuhao couldn't take it anymore.
Was this... sarcasm?
Admire his courage?
His courage to keep shouting even after getting caught?
If this kept up, he felt like he'd break.
So,
Zhao Yuhao quickly cut her off:
"I didn't do much. Since you're in publicity too... just keep at it."
With that,
He sped up, deliberately putting distance between them.
After witnessing the entire exchange,
Lin Yu: "..."
Brother Hao's emotional intelligence...
Was it seriously lopsided or what?
How much had he secretly done for the team?
No wonder Lin Yu had felt like photographers suddenly swarmed them at the exhibition earlier—
It was all part of some organized scheme!
Sigh.
But why did he become so clueless when it came to romance?
Seeing the girl's awkward expression, Lin Yu shook his head helplessly.
Then,
He pulled a corner of drawing paper from his pocket...
Vice President, this is as far as I can help you!
"Whoosh—"
The paper flew low, unnoticed by the crowd,
Precisely slicing through the bottom of one of the girl's bags.
Instantly,
"Crash—"
The contents spilled everywhere.
"Huh? The bag tore?"
The girl immediately stopped to pick things up.
Hearing the commotion, Zhao Yuhao paused a few steps ahead.
After hesitating, he turned back to help.
"This bag's ruined. You can't use it anymore."
"Use this one instead. The other bag won't fit everything."
He handed her a spare tote—a souvenir from the event.
"Thank you, Senior."
Watching him help so earnestly,
The girl mustered her courage again:
"Senior, could I add you on WeChat?"
"That way, I can return the bag later... and maybe ask for advice about club publicity too."
Zhao Yuhao: "!!!"
Add him?
A girl was asking for his contact?
He glanced at her, then quickly looked down.
Softly, he replied:
"Sure... okay."
...

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.
