How could everything possibly be over just because of that?
They made it sound as if the two of them were having an affair!
Weren’t they just going out together to take part in an eating competition?
So what if they were found out?
At worst, Big Sis would scold her a couple more times!
“Little Chi, I’m telling you, you really… Huh?!”
Before he could finish speaking,
Chi Qingchi hooked her arm through Lin Yu’s.
Then she “stuffed” him into the taxi in front of them.
“Little Lin, I know you have something to say.”
“Get in first. We’ll talk once we’re inside!”
After that flurry of hurried movements,
she piqued the driver’s curiosity.
Through the rearview mirror, the driver tried his best to size up this strange young couple.
“Driver, Home Inn Express Hotel on Ronghua Road!”
Chi Qingchi climbed into the car and immediately told the driver where to go.
The driver said, “Oh… sure thing.”
Lin Yu: “…”
Lin Yu could see the driver’s look perfectly clearly.
If he didn’t misunderstand, that would be the real miracle!
In the driver’s eyes, the two of them were probably a couple who had arranged to meet in secret first thing in the morning because they were “still hungry.”
They had hurried out of the house and fled far away to sneak off and eat!
Sneaking off to eat was indeed what they were doing.
But it was purely in the literal sense.
It had absolutely nothing to do with the other meaning those words implied.
“Phew…”
“We finally made it out!”
“The air smells like freedom!”
Chi Qingchi rolled down the window and closed her eyes, enjoying the fresh air outside.
It wasn’t as if anyone had forbidden her from leaving the house.
She made it sound as though she were some poor thing who hadn’t been outside in three or five years!
“Click!”
The sound of a phone camera rang out.
Chi Qingchi immediately turned around, on high alert.
“Little Lin, did you just take a picture of me?!”
Lin Yu admired the photo he had carefully composed.
He had to admit—
it had quite an artistic feel.
In the picture, Little Chi stood bathed in sunlight and looked beautiful.
But because she was wearing a baseball cap, Lin Yu kept seeing Elder Chi in her place.
“What do you mean, ‘take a picture of you’?”
“Don’t accuse me of anything. I was simply openly preserving evidence.”
Little Chi muttered,
“‘Preserving evidence’ means…”
“!!!”
The moment she realized what he meant, Little Chi instinctively lunged at Lin Yu.
But Lin Yu had been prepared. How could he possibly let her take his phone?
He easily pinned it beneath himself.
Little Chi showed no hesitation. When she realized she couldn’t reach it,
she simply reached between Lin Yu’s spread legs to snatch it away.
Lin Yu: “???”
That was way too aggressive!
Was she not even considering the driver’s feelings?!
“Don’t fool around, don’t fool around—the driver’s driving!”
“If we get into an accident, I can’t afford the compensation.”
Lin Yu hurriedly reminded her.
Chi Qingchi stopped moving her hands, but she still refused to give up verbally.
“Then delete it, and I won’t bother you.”
“How can you secretly take a picture of me without my permission? Hmph!”
Lin Yu asked back without the slightest hint of panic,
“Does taking a picture without permission automatically count as secretly photographing someone?”
“Oh?”
“Then what do you call the pictures you took when we came back from Spring Plaza last time?”
Chi Qingchi: “I… That was… I… Hmph!!”
After Lin Yu put it that way,
Chi Qingchi stammered a couple of times and genuinely had no idea how to answer.
He was right.
The last time they had taken a taxi together, she had secretly taken pictures too.
She never would have thought that…
Little Lin actually remembered!
Now that she’d suddenly brought it up, Chi Qingchi had no way to argue.
“Then you’ll have to watch it by yourself. And whatever you do, don’t let Big Sister see!”
“You don’t have a sister who can kill people, so how could you possibly understand?”
Lin Yu assured her, “Don’t worry. I’ll only watch it when I’m alone.”
Chi Qingchi nodded, but then felt that something about Lin Yu’s words wasn’t quite right.
She hurriedly added, “Um, and one more thing… you can’t watch it while using one hand.”
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints.

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.
