Five minutes later.
Copying his classmates' homework took just one minute.
For the remaining four minutes, Lin Yu browsed through Teacher Yan Miaozhu's personal photos with a critical eye.
Sigh. Expectations had been set too high.
The content fell far short of what he'd imagined.
Compared to the photos he'd taken for Antique Sister, these weren't even on the same level.
Just some shots with skimpy outfits and mildly suggestive angles.
The only takeaway was seeing Yan Miaozhu's sexy side beyond her professional attire.
Many photos clearly couldn't have been selfies.
Who knew which poor souls had been ensnared by the Green Snake Lady to produce these?
Among them were several against white bedsheet backgrounds.
No one uses such hotel-style bedding at home—these had to be taken in a hotel!
Admittedly,
Yan Miaozhu must have put thought into curating these photos for her hard drive.
Your average college student would never have seen anything this bold.
Anyone else would've been utterly overwhelmed,
their imagination running wild, certain body parts standing at attention.
But for a battle-hardened veteran like Lin Yu?
Not quite enough.
Lin Yu glanced at Yan Miaozhu sprawled on the beanbag chair.
Though she was trying hard to pretend she was asleep,
her breathing and rigid stillness couldn't fool him.
Truly sleeping people relax completely—their breathing takes on a distinct ease.
Their bodies also make occasional tiny unconscious movements.
Lin Yu almost wanted to lift Yan Miaozhu's arm and say:
"They say sleeping girls' arms stay raised if you lift them~
Let's test if teacher's really asleep?"
Lin Yu: "..."
After waiting a few more minutes,
Lin Yu figured it was time. He leaned in and called softly:
"Teacher Yan? Teacher Yan, wake up, the files are all copied."
"Teacher Yan? Teacher Yan..."
She's really committed to this act.
Who falls asleep that deeply in minutes?
Proof that words can't wake someone pretending to sleep.
Lin Yu had no choice but to pat Yan Miaozhu's shoulder.
This finally got a reaction.
"Mmm~ Nn~"
Stretching lazily, Yan Miaozhu rose from the couch.
This showed her skill level.
Even with the eye mask on, she pinpointed Lin Yu's location perfectly.
As her arms extended, her hand drifted unerringly upward,
fingers brushing closely along his body.
Lin Yu: "???"
That move...
Seemed casual yet deliberate, like using his body as a measuring stick.
Or maybe checking whether Lin Yu had developed
appropriate reactions after viewing the sleeping beauty and her photos?
[Ding!]
[Critical hit! The Saint's divine weapon awes the Green Snake Lady, stirring her heart!]
[Reward: 50 spirit stones]
Lin Yu: "..."
Knew it.
Definitely not accidental.
Immediately after,
Yan Miaozhu removed her eye mask, acting completely unaware as she smiled up at Lin Yu:
"All done? Feels like I barely slept—you're so fast, Lin Yu!"
Lin Yu: "..."
Thanks for that?
How would you know without testing?
Wait...
She saw him unaffected after viewing the photos...
Could she think he already... finished?
Damn damn damn!
Was "fast" implying that?
This is outright humiliation!
Steadying himself, Lin Yu maintained his naive persona, scratching his head:
"Not that fast..."
"Teacher Yan, I sorted them by group."
"If there's nothing else, should I head back?"
Lin Yu knew his words were meaningless.
With the door locked, she wouldn't let him leave so easily.
This was just to speed through formalities and see
what other tricks Yan Miaozhu had prepared.
Yan Miaozhu leisurely sat at the computer to inspect his "work."
Opening the hard drive, she suddenly feigned distress:
"Oh no! Why did I put that video here!"
Lin Yu: "..."
Could you be any more obvious?
Might as well keep the act internal—saying it out loud makes the ploy too transparent.
His soul wasn't some twenty-year-old puppy—he couldn't play along with glee, only cringe.
Yan Miaozhu looked up at Lin Yu, shifting to praise:
"Lin Yu, your performance at the convention yesterday went viral!"
"My WeChat moments were flooded with classmates sharing your video."
"So I watched it a few times (tactical pause)... Who knew you liked Tokyo Ghoul too?"
Her pause was masterfully placed—
after "a few times," letting Lin Yu infer keywords: obsession, admiration, affection...
Among students exists a shared psychological phenomenon called "hierarchy theory."
No matter how outstanding, studious or talented a student is,
they subconsciously place teachers on a higher tier.
When a young female teacher displays fascination with them,
the resulting ego boost dwarfs anything from female classmates.
This exists in society too—a subconscious "admiration of superiors" mentality.
In crude terms:
Holy shit! The teacher's into me? Could we possibly [censored]?
OMG! The CEO likes me? Could I get [censored] by the boss?
Hence the popularity of "CEO romance" tropes.
Among Lin Yu's female acquaintances, Yan Miaozhu was currently the undisputed master of psychological manipulation.
Lin Yu played along:
"You flatter me, Teacher Yan. I do enjoy anime sometimes."
"Occasionally I'll practice singing the theme songs."
"With other songs, my lack of skill would show."
Yan Miaozhu noted how Lin Yu kept avoiding eye contact while speaking.
A shy, tall young man—exactly her type!
"Good at singing, good at photography."
"No wonder so many girls like you."
"Your girlfriend... is it the older or younger twin sister?"
Catching Lin Yu completely off guard, Yan Miaozhu suddenly dropped the question.
Lin Yu: "..."
Can't you flirt without prying into personal matters?
Even more frustrating—
Just as Lin Yu prepared to answer, Yan Miaozhu immediately backpedaled:
"Don't answer, sorry, sorry!"
"I shouldn't ask such things!"
"College relationships are normal—it's not like high school, no need to be nervous."
Lin Yu: "???"
When was he nervous?
She's literally inventing nervousness for him!
Soon,
Lin Yu understood Yan Miaozhu's real purpose.
Older or younger twin sister—
Completely irrelevant!
She only wanted to gauge his reaction to confirm whether he had a girlfriend.
So you're the type who enjoys "hunting in others' territory," huh?
Having a girlfriend makes you safer and less likely to get into trouble, right?

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

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.
