Zou Kai shouted once, rousing all the brothers around him who hadn’t yet been wilted by the sun.
It didn’t matter whether standing under the sun was comfortable or not.
They absolutely couldn’t let Lin Yu, the “show-off,” enjoy himself!
“Fuck! Is this guy ever going to stop? He’s got another girl with him now?”
“Damn, I’m seriously impressed. What do these girls even see in him?”
“Hey? Does anyone know this girl? She looks kind of familiar!”
“…”
As the figure drew closer, the group all squinted in unison and stared into the distance.
At the same time, not far away, Lin Yu opened the parasol he had prepared in advance with a snap.
“Sis Miaozhu, it’s still pretty hot out here on the field.”
“I saw the girls in our group using one of these, so I borrowed it from them.”
Yan Miaozhu looked up at the parasol above her head, and her heart warmed.
“Thanks. It’s really no big deal, though. My skin isn’t that fair to begin with.”
That was what she said, but she was quite content to enjoy Lin Yu’s personal shade service.
Lin Yu looked Yan Miaozhu up and down.
“Of course it is. You’re very fair… much fairer than me.”
Yan Miaozhu: “!!!”
This kid!
He really knew what he was doing!
He had actually thought of this in advance.
That only convinced Yan Miaozhu even more that, aside from making a cameo in the shoot today, Lin Yu definitely had “something else” he wanted her help with.
This block of wood had finally started to catch on.
All that time she had spent slowly baiting him into taking the hook hadn’t been wasted after all.
At that moment, Yan Miaozhu only wanted Lin Yu to finish filming as quickly as possible so they wouldn’t be delayed in handling the other matter later.
She quickened her pace and headed toward the large platform, wanting to see what her students were actually messing around with over there.
Even if they were filming an assignment, who would shoot under the blazing midday sun?
Wouldn’t the footage be completely overexposed?
That wasn’t how she taught them in class. She really had no idea what these idiots had learned.
“Zou Kai! Zou Kai!”
“What are you guys doing over here?”
Yan Miaozhu hadn’t even reached them before she began calling out impatiently.
Hearing his name, Zou Kai forced his eyes wide open.
Braving the blinding sunlight, he strained to look ahead.
“Teacher Yan?”
“Holy shit…”
“Why is she here with Lin Yu?”
Zou Kai stared in shock.
What the hell!
Where had Lin Yu gotten the connections to bring her over from home?
Teacher Yan shouldn’t have had any reason to come to school today. She wasn’t supposed to be checking assignments!
“Wait, Brother Kai, that’s our photography teacher, Yan Miaozhu?”
“Yeah… it really does look like her!”
“What do we do? Say something? Say something!”
“…”
The four of them instantly grew tense, as if they had done something wrong.
At the critical moment, Zou Kai was still a little more thick-skinned than the others.
“What the hell are you so afraid of?”
“We’re filming an assignment, aren’t we? It’s not like we’re causing trouble.”
“Say hello. Hurry up and say hello. Act natural!”
Zou Kai scolded the others for being so timid.
Then he plastered an extremely unnatural smile across his face and took the initiative to greet her.
“Teacher Yan? Oh, wow!”
“I thought I was seeing things. What brings you here?”
“How… how did you end up on the field?”
The other three followed behind him, each greeting their teacher with greater “shyness” than the last.
The scene looked absolutely ridiculous.
Lin Yu even wondered if his eyes were playing tricks on him.
Were these really college students?
They looked more like high schoolers!
Zou Kai did have some courage, but that was about the only thing one could praise him for.
His facial expressions and tone of voice were so painfully awkward that even Lin Yu wanted to hide.
Yan Miaozhu looked him up and down and couldn’t help asking, “I was just about to ask you the same thing. Why aren’t you taking a nap at noon? What are you doing out on the field?”
Lin Yu seemed to catch the scent of an impending battle.
With one stride, he stepped in front of the group.
“Sis Miaozhu, I know!”

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." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
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...
