Lin Yu saw no reason to be polite with Ying’er.
After being worked over all night, he was indeed a little hungry.
So he simply took the food from her and started eating in big bites.
“You’re only eating a youtiao?”
“Isn’t that a little dry?”
Lin Yu gestured as he spoke.
At that, Maomao immediately pulled a cup of soy milk from the plastic bag in her hand.
“Yu, it’s right here!”
Lin Yu had actually already seen it.
He had only said that for Maomao’s sake.
Food and drink were both covered—what more could he ask for?
Lin Yu brought the two girls to the steps of the stands by the field and found a dry spot to sit down and eat.
“Master, I thought Sister Ruirui was making it up!”
“You really get up this early every day?”
“It feels like your schedule is about the same as mine.”
Mo Shangying looked at Lin Yu, who was sitting one step above her, in surprise.
Lin Yu swallowed the food in his mouth and asked:
“Speaking of schedules…”
“What’s going on with you two?”
“Your work at 860 should still be unfinished, right?”
“How do you still have the energy to come out for breakfast right after getting off work?”
Lin Yu voiced the question that had been puzzling him.
Maomao, who had already eaten her fill, explained:
“860’s shift starts this afternoon and lasts twelve hours straight.”
“So we slept in my room last night. Wei didn’t go back.”
Lin Yu’s eyes widened.
“You two? Slept together?”
“When you two get together, can you actually fall asleep? Don’t tell me you played games all night until now?”
“I didn’t read much. Don’t try to fool me!”
Maomao’s eyes lit up instantly, and she answered quickly:
“That’s from Fist of Fury—at one hour, nineteen minutes, and twenty-five seconds!”
Lin Yu nodded without surprise.
So they really had just slept together and hadn’t done anything strange.
His brain, running on zero hours of sleep, wasn’t capable of thinking that fast.
He bought it.
“Yu! Got anything else?”
Maomao looked at Lin Yu expectantly, as if waiting for him to make another move.
She could slip into Battle Cat mode in a matter of seconds.
“Nope, that’s all. We’ll battle again next time.”
Lin Yu waved his hands, looking as if he were begging for mercy.
The disappointment in Maomao’s eyes was impossible to miss.
“Next time… when?”
Lin Yu stammered, “Next time will be…”
Mo Shangying suddenly cut in:
“Master, you novel writers always like to write things such as acrostic poems, don’t you?”
“When you write a novel, just put the question in the story itself.”
“Like making the opening of the first chapter a clue about where it came from…”
“That way, you can gain a loyal reader who follows every update!”
“No, wait—two loyal readers!”
“I promise I’ll read it every day too!”
Lin Yu: “…”
What a troublesome disciple!
She really knew how to create extra work for him!
First of all, he would need to actually have a novel.
His identity had been completed and arranged by the system. He didn’t have any real works at all.
Even so, all he could do was maintain a smile and give her a thumbs-up.
“Hey, Ying’er’s suggestion is pretty good!”
“Let’s do that. I’ll make sure to arrange something for Maomao in my next novel!”
“Every chapter will begin with the question. Just wait and see!”
“Now, can we talk about why you two came looking for me?”
“You didn’t really travel all this way just to eat a youtiao, did you?”
Judging from what the two girls had revealed, they had come to the university field after listening to Ruirui.
They definitely had something to discuss with him!
Originally, Lin Yu had stayed away from home and come to the field for a walk because he was waiting for Ruirui, who was supposed to come running.
But judging from the situation, Ruirui probably wouldn’t be coming after all.
As soon as he said that, Maomao immediately shot Ying’er a quick glance before hurriedly looking away.
Lin Yu: “…”
Got it.
It was definitely something to do with Ying’er!
Lin Yu gently rubbed Ying’er’s head and continued:
“As for Ying’er…”
“You do know I have to film my summer homework today, right?”
Mo Shangying scratched her cheek awkwardly and smiled.
“Hehehe… How could I forget about Master’s important work?”
“You’re not starting until after lunch, are you?”
“Could you help the two of us with a little favor this morning?”
Mo Shangying pinched her fingers together, deliberately indicating that it was a very, very small favor.
Lin Yu darkened his expression and looked up.
“Ah, all right, all right, Ying’er.”
“Let’s skip straight to the part where you tell me what it is.”
Mo Shangying moved a little closer and placed her hand on Lin Yu’s knee.
“Master, I thought of a new game last night.”
“The more I thought about it, the more obsessed I became. I really, really want to make it and try it out!”
“But there’s one place neither Maomao nor I have ever been…”
“Could you take us there?”
Lin Yu: “???”
There was a place that only he knew about?
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."

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...
