So he’d thought Little Chi was genuinely just thanking him.
Turns out she’d been waiting to spring this on him!
Lin Yu helplessly planted his hands on his hips and lowered his head to look at his own figure.
“Little Chi, what exactly gave you the impression…”
“That I can eat a lot?”
In reality, Lin Yu probably had the smallest appetite in the entire apartment.
With his physical abilities enhanced by the system, he could stay full of energy even if he went an entire day without eating.
As for what would happen if he ate too much…
Lin Yu had never actually tried it.
After all, normal people stopped eating once they were full.
Who would be like Little Chi, treating eating as some kind of “alternative exercise”?
As long as it wouldn’t kill her, she’d eat herself to death!
Little Chi glanced left and right. Seeing that everyone was busy with their own things and nobody was paying attention to them, she lowered her voice and added:
“Little Lin, just think of it as doing me a favor, okay?”
“If we win the prize money, I’ll give you whatever you want!”
“Except for yourself…”
Lin Yu: “???”
Chi Qingchi didn’t continue with the rest of that sentence.
Lin Yu could more or less guess what she had wanted to say.
Couldn’t she find anyone else besides him?
“You have so many friends. Don’t you have plenty of people in your club, too?”
“If all else fails, you could even ask Goose Goose Goose, right?”
Lin Yu asked curiously why she had to be him.
He wouldn’t have known if he hadn’t asked.
Like squeezing toothpaste from a tube, Little Chi only began telling the truth after he kept pressing her.
“Girl friends won’t work…”
“Little Lin, I’ll be honest with you.”
“This is actually a couples’ challenge.”
“Other than you… I really can’t think of anyone else to ask…”
After saying this, Little Chi looked up at Lin Yu pitifully.
With that innocent expression, she really could make an ordinary guy lose his resolve and fall straight into her trap.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Usually, she simply didn’t want to show it, but she really knew how to work a man!
“Ohhh~~”
Lin Yu deliberately drew out the sound, pretending to suddenly understand.
“So if you asked another guy for help, you’d be worried he might get the wrong idea.”
“But if you asked me, you wouldn’t have to worry about that!”
“Got it!”
“So this is just because you don’t see me as a man, right?”
Little Chi hurriedly shook her head over and over.
“No, no, no, no!”
“How could I possibly mean that?”
“Little Lin, it’s because you’re… kind!”
Lin Yu’s face darkened again. “…”
Kind?
She might as well have said she saw him as one of her girlfriends!
Thinking about it carefully, Lin Yu really didn’t have anything scheduled for tomorrow during the day.
After finishing this shoot, their next one wouldn’t be until two days later.
The other girls around him didn’t have any urgent tasks, either.
And when he looked at the [Mortal Glutton] quest floating above Little Chi, Lin Yu truly had no reason to refuse.
He folded his arms over his chest and deliberately put on a troubled expression.
“So your only way of thanking me is taking me out to spend the prize money? That’s it?”
Hearing this, Little Chi’s eyes suddenly lit up!
She was an incredibly clever girl.
The fact that Little Lin had said this meant there was hope!
Little Chi hurriedly said excitedly:
“Little Lin, just name your reward. Anything is fine!”
“As long as you want it and I have it!”
Lin Yu: “!!!”
For the sake of food, she really was willing to say anything!
How could she casually blurt out something so suggestive?
Lin Yu’s gaze involuntarily traveled up and down Little Chi’s body…
In an instant, Little Chi became like a rabbit with its fur standing on end.
She immediately crossed her arms over her chest and cut him off:
“That’s not allowed!”
Lin Yu’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t help blurting out:
“What isn’t allowed?”
“Did I even say anything?”
Little Chi pressed her lips tightly together. “…”
Her mouth hadn’t said a word.
But her eyes were incredibly lively, darting around as they kept staring at him.
Absolutely terrifying!

s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
