With Mao Ruirui's height, she had to stand on tiptoe to match Lin Yu's level.
Even so.
She did it without hesitation, completely immersed in the moment.
Lin Yu gently wrapped his arms around Mao Ruirui's waist, pulling her closer.
Mao Ruirui was usually an athletic girl.
Yet the moment their lips met, her body seemed to melt, losing all strength.
If he hadn’t been holding her, she might have slipped straight to the ground.
[Ding!]
[Masterful move! The Saint’s domineering act leaves his partner utterly entranced, unable to break free!]
[Reward: 50 Spirit Stones.]
Lin Yu noticed there was no one else around, which was why he dared to act so boldly.
As the number of sect friends kept increasing, doing anything intimate in broad daylight required extra caution.
Pingchuan was such a small city.
Who knew when they might bump into someone’s acquaintance in some random corner?
Better safe than sorry!
People needed to be mindful, but as for dogs…
Good Luck crouched on the ground: "…"
It cursed itself for not being able to speak!
Was a single dog’s life not a life?
Weren’t you two just chatting fine? How did you suddenly start biting each other?!
…
At noon, in a private room of a homely restaurant on the commercial street.
Song Chunxia had offered to treat them to a meal.
But how could Mao Ruirui really let her pay?
First, she was a regular customer at the restaurant.
Second, she was also the landlady.
When eating with Mao Ruirui, there was no way she’d let her spend money.
So.
Mao Ruirui had reserved a small private room in advance and pre-ordered the dishes.
After sending the location to Song Chunxia, she waited for her arrival.
Before that.
Mao Ruirui and Lin Yu had delivered lunch to Sister Qimeng.
Then they returned to the shop to fetch Chang Xiaoxiao, inviting her to join them for the meal.
Xiaoxiao was a sensible girl.
Lin Yu’s friend, Mao Ruirui’s landlady—from a relational standpoint, she had no direct ties to Chang Xiaoxiao.
No matter how much she wanted to eat with Lin Yu, she shouldn’t intrude on a gathering between acquaintances.
Of course.
Lunch wasn’t just for three people.
There was also a dog!
Mao Ruirui had brought Good Luck’s food bowl along, as well as a big bag of its favorite dog food.
Before the dishes were even served, Good Luck had already finished eating.
Listening to its "huff~ huff~" panting, it must have enjoyed the meal immensely.
Under normal circumstances.
Mao Ruirui would have chatted with Lin Yu while waiting for Chunxia to arrive.
But right now.
The two sat in silence, the atmosphere between them strangely tense.
Mao Ruirui’s mind kept replaying what had happened in the small park.
She and Lin Yu…
Had kissed like a couple deeply in love, completely oblivious to their surroundings.
In the later stages.
Lin Yu had even led her under a tree, kissing her cheeks and neck.
His hands had gotten restless too…
It was at this point that Mao Ruirui realized she’d done the dumbest thing recently—
She’d instinctively said "No"?!
Lin Yu was such a considerate guy.
The moment he sensed even the slightest resistance from Mao Ruirui, he immediately stopped.
He even apologized for his boldness.
Which only made Mao Ruirui feel even more awkward!
And that was how they ended up in this painfully awkward situation.
Mao Ruirui wanted to break the ice with some small talk, but she couldn’t think of anything to say.
As a hot-blooded male college student.
Wasn’t it perfectly normal to lose a bit of control with his hands during a long, passionate kiss with someone he was romantically involved with?
Now that she’d calmed down, Mao Ruirui regretted blurting out "No."
Even staying silent would have been better than this.
She really was an emotionally dense, atmosphere-ruining idiot!
Would Lin Yu think she wasn’t serious about dating him?
Mao Ruirui couldn’t help stealing glances at Lin Yu, trying to gauge his mood.
Her subtle movements didn’t escape Lin Yu’s notice.
Lin Yu began a new round of "pointing at the mulberry tree to curse the locust"!
He looked at Good Luck beside him and said:
"Sit properly. Don’t get cocky, straighten your back."
"If you’re going to sit, sit with dignity!"
During training, Lin Yu had repeatedly emphasized—
As long as Good Luck obeyed, it would be rewarded with a feast.
Now, the promise had been fulfilled.
Lin Yu’s image in Good Luck’s eyes had soared to new heights.
Second only to its beloved mistress.
A firm belief had taken root in Good Luck’s heart:
Follow Brother Yu, and you’ll eat well!
When it came to daily "posture correction," Good Luck naturally obeyed Lin Yu’s commands without question.
Little did it know.
A dog’s intelligence was no match for human cunning.
Lin Yu’s stern tone made Mao Ruirui extremely nervous.
Already stuck in an awkward situation.
Hearing Lin Yu issue such sharp commands.
Mao Ruirui’s reaction was even faster than Good Luck’s!
She immediately adjusted her posture, sitting up straight with her hands folded on the table.
Anyone watching might have mistaken her for a student waiting for class to start.
To make sure Mao Ruirui fully understood who was in charge here.
Lin Yu continued his "training":
"Good job. Let’s see if you remember what I taught you today…"
"Stretch out your little paw. Show me how to ‘blossom.’"
Mao Ruirui took a deep breath: "!!!"
Damn it, hands—don’t move!
This was way too weird.
If Lin Yu saw this, he’d definitely think she was insane…
"Faster!"
Lin Yu’s sharp command shattered Mao Ruirui’s last shred of resistance.
Trembling, she stretched out her hand, splaying her fingers flat on the table.
Lin Yu, still facing away, continued:
"Good, very obedient. Now…"
"Turn around, come closer!"
"Straighten your back. I’ll groom you as a reward."
Mao Ruirui clenched her teeth: "!!!"
What kind of command was this?!
This was too bizarre!
Had Lin Yu really trained Good Luck to do this when she wasn’t looking?
She’d been there the whole time—had she missed something?
"Quit dawdling! Do you want the reward or not? Hurry up!"
Lin Yu’s relentless pressure hammered at Mao Ruirui’s heart.
Until she completely surrendered to instinct…
In the next moment.
She spun around swiftly, turning her back to Lin Yu.
Then, inexplicably, she leaned her back against him.
Only after completing this series of actions did Mao Ruirui’s rationality return.
Mao Ruirui: "!!!"
It’s over.
This is it.
He’s definitely going to think I’m crazy now!
What the hell am I doing?!
The situation was awkward enough—did I just make it worse?
…

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
y came from. The chests contained supplies, currency, class-change scrolls, skills, talents… and even godhood! The laws of the world were completely rewritten. This became a world where everyone gambled with their fate! Some people, despite having nothing, opened a divine artifact and rose to the top, eventually ruling the world. Others went bankrupt, opened nothing but worthless junk, and leaped from skyscrapers in despair. Lin Ye arrived in this world from another reality, utterly bewildered. “What is going on?

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
