The director swiftly reached out to block the camera filming Lin Ran, congratulating himself on his quick thinking.
Just then, Lin Ran turned to face another camera.
"In the end, they finally did it—a male and female became one. The sounds that night were like heavenly music..."
Director: "OMG!"
Cut!
[The livestream you're watching has been suspended for five minutes due to policy violations]
"Yes, they were a pair of snow leopards that wouldn’t shut up. Their mouths were open all night. When Yao Yao asked me about it, I said it had nothing to do with me. That was the biggest lie I’ve ever told—and the one with the worst consequences."
This was the last sentence that slipped through due to audio delay after the screen went black.
The barrage of comments flooding the black screen was nothing but white 【???】.
【You’re My God】: Hahaha, director got owned! Did you forget the terror of being dominated by my boy Lin Ran?
【Stole Lin’s Little Sister at Age 3】: I was wondering why Lin Ran was so well-behaved today. Guess the saying’s true: "When kids are quiet, they’re definitely up to no good."
【Thirty Years of Congratulations】: Lin Ran: "Five minutes is your punishment. Ask another question that threatens marital harmony, and I’ll get you permanently banned." Director: "Sorry, I was wrong. Daddy, please stop!"
【Bro’s So Right】: Am I the only one feeling bad for the snow leopards?
Five minutes later, the livestream resumed.
The director demanded an explanation from Lin Ran—he needed the platform to know how unfairly he’d been banned.
Lin Ran faced the camera. "Yes, the consequences were severe. As they say, 'When it mounts and it cries, next year a baby greets your eyes...'"
As Lin Ran spoke, the director frantically rubbed his hands together like a fly, begging for mercy.
Lin Ran smirked and pivoted. "Those snow leopards went wild that night. That’s the lie I told Luo Yao."
The director exhaled in relief, vowing to stay quiet for the rest of the session and never ask Lin Ran another risky question again.
Beside him, Luo Yao’s lips twitched briefly before her expression returned to normal, her gaze at Lin Ran screaming, "My A-Ran is so adorable."
A naive college student couldn’t resist asking, "So what happened to the snow leopards after that?"
And just like that, the topic derailed.
The director stared at the student in horror—his murderous glare was impossible to miss.
Lin Ran: "Oh, their two cubs are old enough to run errands now. I named them—one’s 'Cheese Snow Leopard,' the other 'Shut Up Snow Leopard.' I’ll show you sometime."
The college student’s eyes widened in disbelief.
【Your Love Train Derailed】: "Cheese Snow Leopard" and "Shut Up Snow Leopard"? That’s next-level genius.
【Fell for a Wild Dog】: Those poor snow leopards suffered too much. I demand a livestream for them!
【Heaven = Paradise on Earth】: Hell yeah, keep this game going forever. Don’t ever stop...
The game continued, this time landing on Liu Yishou.
The director sighed in relief—these two were the most predictable people here.
"I choose truth."
Assistant Director: "Do you secretly seethe with jealousy over ultra-rich power couples like Lin Ran and Luo Yao?"
Liu Yishou: "I’m consumed by hatred. Half the time, I want to fight these wealthy elites barehanded."
Director: ??? What kind of madness are you spouting?!
Keep playing? No way. The director wasn’t risking it.
Between the fearless Q&A of the assistant director and host, Lin Ran and Luo Yao’s unpredictability, and the college student’s no-filter commentary, he was the only sane one left at the table. One more round, and the show would implode.
"Ahem! Host... shouldn’t we move to the next segment?"
Liu Yishou frowned. "You’re the director—why ask me?"
The director’s face darkened. Couldn’t they even play along?
He fake-checked his watch. "Oops, time for the next activity!"
Liu Yishou flashed his trademark smile and transitioned, while the assistant director rolled her eyes hard.
Coward. Short-sighted fool. Didn’t he realize this game was a goldmine of viral potential?
Of course the director knew—but he’d rather not gamble his career for clicks.
Next up: making dinner.
Thanks to Lin Ran and Luo Yao’s extended "afternoon break" and the games, it was already 4 PM. Cook dinner, do a post-meal chat, and they’d wrap for the day.
The rest of the evening—and the entirety of tomorrow—was free time for Lin Ran and Luo Yao.
When Luo Yao stepped into the kitchen, Lin Ran immediately scooped her up, deposited her gently on the sofa, and kissed her lips.
"Stay put, sweetheart. I’ll handle dinner."
"Does A-Ran think I’m useless?"
Lin Ran ruffled her hair. "So cute. A useless girl couldn’t earn enough to keep me spoiled. You fund my life, I cook for you."
After a pause, he added, "Even if you were useless, I’d still adore you."
Luo Yao nodded. "Okay."
Lin Ran worked alone in the kitchen. Despite the added task of managing the fire, he whipped up four dishes and a soup in just an hour.
And that was with only two pots. With more cookware, he’d have been even faster.
The stew and soup were time-consuming, especially tonight’s green beans—Lin Ran always boiled them to mush.
Otherwise, he’d risk someone declaring, "Who says these beans are tough? They’re perfect! (^ω^)"
At dinner, just as Lin Ran was about to feed Luo Yao, she stopped him.
"Today, I’ll feed you."
Lin Ran froze. Honestly? He was a little embarrassed.
Feeding Luo Yao was one thing, but being fed by her?
He’d gotten used to it when he was sick, but doing this in front of others made him blush.
Luo Yao frowned. "A-Ran doesn’t like it?"
Lin Ran lowered his head. "I love it in my heart... but my face is burning."
Shyness.
Luo Yao: "Ignore them. You feed me because you love me. I love you, so of course I can feed you too."
"As for everyone else? Treat them like corpses. We have every right to disregard their stares."
【Tomorrow’s the 8th】: Logically, this makes sense... but did Luo Yao just insult me? Why do I find her scathing confidence so hot?
【Office Workers Must Suffer】: Luo Yao called us corpses. Why not dogs? Then again, I’m probably worse off than her dog—hell, even her snow leopards live better. At least they get action. I’ve never even seen aphrodisiacs.
【Don’t Forget to Clock in on Tomato Daily】: Lin Ran can blush?! What kind of sorcery is this?!

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.

I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
