After a long while, Lin Ran finally regained his freedom. Luo Yao sat quietly beside him, like a child who had done something wrong.
"Ah Ran, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to do this..."
Luo Yao's heart ached with guilt and pain.
When dealing with enemies, she could be utterly ruthless, but with Lin Ran, she only wanted to show tenderness.
Yet, she couldn't understand herself. She loved Lin Ran deeply, but sometimes she couldn't help but do things that hurt him.
Every time she felt a surge of frustration because of him, she couldn't resist the urge to grab him and inflict pain.
If she didn't punish Lin Ran, she would retreat to the secret room.
She didn't want to go to the secret room because Lin Ran didn't like her hurting herself.
But she also didn't want to hurt Lin Ran.
The more intense her inner conflict grew, the more obsessive her actions became.
Sometimes, she even wondered if she was going mad.
Lin Ran: "Do you remember what you asked me when I woke up earlier?"
"So don't say sorry. No matter what you've done, I don't blame you, because we're husband and wife."
Luo Yao shook her head. "But I feel uncomfortable."
Luo Yao felt uneasy because she had made a mistake.
Yet, the inexplicable anger she had felt earlier had vanished.
Now, she was more worried that Lin Ran would be afraid and run away from her.
She wanted to treat him well, but she was also afraid he would leave. Doing such things was both her idea and not her idea. This chaotic, insecure emotion was something no one could understand.
Her head was really aching.
Lin Ran: "Actually, I understand your feelings. Don't worry, I won't be afraid, and I won't run away. I just want to stay with you forever, building a safe haven for your heart over a lifetime."
Luo Yao looked at Lin Ran in disbelief. Every word he said seemed to resonate deeply within her.
So, he really understands me.
Luo Yao confidently handed over the item she was holding.
"Here."
Lin Ran: "???"
Luo Yao: "It's for you."
Lin Ran's eyes lit up, and he immediately sat up.
Whether forced or willing, he had indeed suffered a lot in this life and the last.
Wasn't this the perfect opportunity for some well-deserved payback?
Lin Ran gripped the small object tightly, raising his hand. Luo Yao looked up at him directly, her eyes unblinking, not avoiding his gaze in the slightest.
As long as Ah Ran was happy, as long as he didn't blame her, he could hit or scold her as much as he wanted.
Lin Ran's hand lingered in the air. Looking into Luo Yao's eyes, he ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it.
In this regard, Lin Ran admitted he was no match for Luo Yao.
Luo Yao loved him more than he loved her—at least, that's what he believed.
But Luo Yao could still bring herself to act, and that was where this woman surpassed him.
Loving someone and hitting them didn't have to be mutually exclusive.
"Forget it. A good man doesn't fight with a woman."
The sparkle in Luo Yao's eyes brightened.
"Ah Ran... you can't bear to, can you?"
Lin Ran nodded, admitting it openly.
"I love you too much to do it."
Too much?
Luo Yao silently repeated those words in her heart, feeling as if something had struck her deeply.
"You can do it gently."
"Even gently, I can't bear it."
Luo Yao's gaze grew hazy. "In that case, let's change the punishment for now."
Lin Ran: "What punishment... Mmm!"
Luo Yao began to sway freely on top of Lin Ran, dancing as if in a trance.
Lin Ran tried several times to flip over but failed.
How could this little girl be so strong?
Here he was, a grown man standing at 185 cm, being completely overpowered by a woman barely 170 cm tall.
It was utterly ridiculous. Who was the man here?
After a long while, Luo Yao's startled cry announced the perfect conclusion to their performance.
Lin Ran: "When did your period end?"
Luo Yao: "Last night, probably."
After catching his breath, Lin Ran pulled Luo Yao into his arms.
"Is this punishing you? Is this really a punishment? Huh?"
Luo Yao looked up with innocent eyes. "What else would it be?"
Lin Ran grumbled indignantly, "This isn't fair. This is clearly a reward. I want a different punishment."
Luo Yao thought about it and realized it really didn't count as punishment.
"Alright, then you decide."
Lin Ran raised an eyebrow. "Are you serious?"
Luo Yao: "Dead serious."
Lin Ran smiled meaningfully. "Do you have any... black ones for me to appreciate?"
Luo Yao shook her head, but just as Lin Ran's face fell in disappointment, she pulled out her phone.
Liu Meng, who received the call, was utterly shocked.
Lin Ran stared at Luo Yao in confusion. Sis, are you really this bold?
Liu Meng, who had been woken up in the middle of the night, was both stunned and excited, her drowsiness completely gone.
So, this is how wild CEO Luo gets?
Without a second thought, she went to prepare what was needed.
Soon, Liu Meng personally drove to the manor and handed the items directly to Luo Yao.
This involved Luo Yao's privacy, so she couldn't let anyone else know. She hated gossip.
"CEO Luo, the items you asked for. Is it really this urgent in the middle of the night?"
Luo Yao glanced coldly at Liu Meng. "Yes, Ah Ran is eager to see them."
With that, she returned to the villa, leaving Liu Meng standing at the door in shock.
It seems it really was urgent.
CEO Luo is treating Young Master Lin this well? Just because he wanted to see something, she made her employee fetch it in the middle of the night.
And she asked for so many, in all sorts of colors. It wasn't hard to guess what they were for.
Young Master Lin is truly blessed.
Ahhh, I can't share this, I can't say anything. This is unbearable, truly unbearable.
Back in the villa's bedroom, Luo Yao sat on the bed.
"Do you like them?"
"They're beautiful. I love them."
Lin Ran sighed inwardly. No wonder so many people are obsessed with this.
It's not just about beauty.
It's also about the thrill.
The fact that Luo Yao was a domineering CEO only added to Lin Ran's sense of conquest.
Soon, the room was in disarray.
"Yao Yao, let me take charge."
Luo Yao obediently nodded.
"Whatever my husband says."

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
