Zou Kai and the others didn’t dare disobey.
They could only obediently follow Yan Miaozhu toward the shaded area beneath the large stage.
Just before leaving, Zou Kai swept an extremely displeased gaze over the members of Lin Yu’s group.
His eyes lingered longest on Little Chi.
When all was said and done, this whole farce had stemmed from the entanglement between him and Little Chi.
And yet Little Chi…
Hadn’t even looked at him once!
Her gaze remained fixed on Lin Yu, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
Zou Kai was even more pissed off!
Being hated was at least a sign that someone felt something toward him.
But being ignored like this was a devastating blow to his pride!
…
Watching Yan Miaozhu lead the others away, Chi Qingshui asked in surprise,
“Lin Yu, you… you’re actually that close to our photography teacher, Teacher Yan?”
“You even managed to get her here. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you interact with her before.”
Lin Yu could easily brush off other people’s questions with some casual excuse.
But when it came to his little girlfriend’s questions, he had to answer seriously and carefully.
Her nose was far too sharp. He couldn’t let her catch even the slightest whiff of a lie.
Lin Yu calmly explained,
“Speaking of which, it’s actually quite a strange story. It all started with Little Chi…”
Chi Qingchi blinked her large eyes and pointed at herself in confusion.
“Me? What do I have to do with this?”
Lin Yu nodded solemnly and began “explaining” what had happened.
Their photography teacher was also a loyal Bilibili user.
At the anime convention competition, Lin Yu had performed exceptionally well and even briefly made it onto the trending list.
After seeing that, Teacher Yan had spent the past few days praising Lin Yu for his singing.
As they interacted more and more, the two of them had naturally become much more familiar than before.
Today, Lin Yu had asked Teacher Yan to make a guest appearance in their assignment.
At the same time, this had conveniently solved the problem of Zou Kai refusing to leave the spot he was occupying.
Perhaps it was the commotion itself that had drawn everyone’s attention.
No one continued discussing the relationship between Lin Yu and Yan Miaozhu.
Instead, they began praising Lin Yu for resolving the problem so quickly and effectively.
“So that’s how it was. Then this really does have something to do with Little Chi.”
“Little Chi, you owe Lin Yu a favor this time.”
Elder Chi spoke sharply to her younger sister.
Whenever trouble arose, Elder Chi would always be the first to step in front of her sister.
But once the problem had been solved, her next move would definitely be to give her sister a stern lecture.
Especially when someone had offered them help out of kindness.
They absolutely had to find a chance to repay that person.
That had always been how she conducted herself.
And besides…
Lin Yu wasn’t just anyone.
Little Chi wasn’t surprised in the slightest that her sister would say this.
Although she felt rather wronged by the whole affair—it had all been an unprovoked disaster for her—
without Lin Yu’s help, it truly would have been difficult to deal with the trouble this time.
Little Chi looked at Lin Yu with a pitiful expression and said,
“Little Lin, thank you. I’ll remember this.”
Her thanks were so solemn that Lin Yu was caught somewhat off guard.
He hurriedly waved his hands.
“No need for that. We’re all friends here.”
“This wasn’t even a private matter between you sisters. Of course I was going to—”
Elder Chi: “It was necessary!”
Little Chi: “It was necessary!”
Lin Yu: “…”
The sisters had somehow managed to be devilishly in sync at that exact moment!
At the same time, the system’s voice arrived right on schedule.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, Host! You have successfully driven back the evil spirits and protected the safety of the sect’s twin sisters!]

…
Elsewhere.
Yan Miaozhu was having a private conversation with Zou Kai and the others.
“Teacher, the class monitor really did take the photos. He just deleted them by accident.”
“Exactly, exactly! We really weren’t just occupying the space to slack off.”
“Give us another hour—just one more hour—and we’ll definitely be finished!”
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.

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.
