The day of the computer competition arrived.
"Hua Bao, I'm heading to school."
"Wait."
Su Hua walked up to Lin Xuan and straightened his clothes for him.
"A-Xuan." Su Hua stood on her tiptoes and planted a kiss on his lips. "Good luck in the competition."
"Hua Bao, you knew I had a competition today?" A flicker of surprise crossed Lin Xuan's eyes.
"I know everything about A-Xuan."
Su Hua's fingers rested on Lin Xuan's chest. "So be good, and remember, you're my man, Su Hua's man."
"Otherwise, I'll lock you in bed and torment you..."
The word "torment" was uttered with a suggestive tone.
The depth in Su Hua's eyes seemed as if it could devour Lin Xuan whole.
Lin Xuan had a feeling that if he didn't leave now, he might not be able to leave for a while.
"Hua Bao, I'm in a hurry. I have to go."
Lin Xuan slipped away like a greased eel.
Su Hua chuckled softly, her entire being radiating joy.
The ringtone of her phone sounded.
Su Hua glanced at the caller ID, which displayed "Grandpa."
She held the phone to her ear.
"Hua'er," Su Guoxiong asked kindly, "Would you like to come over to Grandpa's place?"
Su Hua and Lin Xuan were inseparable.
He had deliberately chosen a time when Lin Xuan was at school to call his granddaughter, making it easier for her to agree to spend time with him, an old man.
Ah, being alone at home was so boring.
"No," Su Hua refused without hesitation.
"Hua'er, is it because of work that you can't come?" the old man asked, puzzled.
"No, A-Xuan is participating in a computer competition today. I want to watch his match in person."
Su Guoxiong clutched his chest, his tone tinged with jealousy. "So, you've really forgotten about your grandpa now that you have a boyfriend. Oh, this is just..."
Before Su Guoxiong could finish, Su Hua hung up the phone.
The line went dead with a series of beeps.
Su Guoxiong shook his head helplessly.
To be honest, he did feel a bit jealous, but the better their relationship was, the more comforted and happy he felt.
Ever since Su Hua returned to the Su family, she had seemed indifferent to everything.
With Lin Xuan around, he realized that Su Hua could laugh so happily, just like an ordinary person. Her aura had also softened, something he had never seen before.
Su Guoxiong checked the start time of the computer competition.
Then he called one of his old friends.
"Old Liu, come over to my place. Didn't you want to take a look at that jade seal? Come on, I'll let you see it."
Old Master Liu was astonished. "Weren't you extremely protective of that jade seal? How come you're willing to let me see it now?"
He had begged countless times before.
Every time, Su Guoxiong had refused without a second thought.
This time, he had actually taken the initiative to call and invite him over to see the jade seal?
This was unusual! Very unusual!
"Enough with the nonsense. Just tell me, are you coming or not?" Su Guoxiong asked.
He was busy and still had to contact others.
Old Master Liu: "Of course, I'm coming!"
After begging for so long, he finally had a chance to satisfy his curiosity. How could he not go?
*Click.*
Su Guoxiong hung up the phone.
Old Master Liu: "..."
Su Guoxiong then contacted a few more of his old friends.
"Old Chen, it's me, Su Guoxiong. Didn't you love the dishes my chef makes? My chef is already preparing your favorite dishes."
"Old Li, come over to the Su family residence. Didn't you have your eye on that jade chess set? I'm willing to sell it to you..."
Su Guoxiong called over three of his old friends.
Hadn't they all said that his granddaughter would end up alone?
Well, he was going to show them just how handsome and outstanding his future grandson-in-law was!
The three old friends arrived quickly.
Su Guoxiong had already turned on the TV.
"Old Su, where's the jade seal?"
"Old Su, where's my food?"
"Old Su, where's the chess set?"
The three old men asked.
Old Li slapped a bank card onto the table. "The 100 million for the jade chess set is right here. I can transfer it anytime!"
Su Guoxiong smiled. "No rush for that. Come and watch the TV first."
The three old men: "???"
"It's the National College Computer Competition. It's going to be exciting, and it's starting soon," Su Guoxiong explained.
The three old men: "?"
A computer competition?
Since when did Old Su care about such things?
Backstage at the competition.
Apart from Qinghua University, the other four teams that had made it to the finals had arrived.
Everyone believed that Yundu University had the highest chance of winning this competition.
Especially Lin Li.
He was the most skilled among them, and his family background was exceptional.
Starlight Group had recently entered the gaming industry and had launched several popular games in the past few months. The company was growing rapidly, and the salaries were high.
Getting a job in Starlight Group's gaming department would be a great opportunity for them.
They gathered around Lin Li, flattering him.
"Lin, your performance in the preliminary rounds was outstanding. It's no wonder you won first place in last year's individual competition."
"Lin, you're definitely going to lead Yundu University to victory this time."
"Like father, like son. Your dad has done such a great job developing Starlight Group, and you're just as impressive."
Lin Li, surrounded by the crowd, felt immensely proud, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
He reveled in the feeling of being the center of attention.
Lin Xuan, Wang Dahe, and another contestant from Qinghua University also entered the backstage area.
Wang Dahe had been recommended by Lin Xuan to participate in the competition.
One of the students from another school had been in a car accident, so a replacement had been sent. The replacement looked puzzled. "Who are they? Why are they arriving so late?"
"Don't you know? That's the team from Qinghua University. They made it to the finals in fifth place," his teammate explained.
"Qinghua University? Didn't they usually rank second or third in previous years? How did they drop to fifth this time?"
"One of their team members is dragging them down. His name is Lin Xuan."
"Lin Xuan?"
"Yeah, he's actually Lin Li's twin brother."
Twin brothers?
The boy couldn't help but comment, "Isn't the gap between them too big? One led his team to first place, while the other dragged his team down to fifth."
"Exactly. I don't understand why they let such a useless person compete."
Wang Dahe, overhearing their conversation, sneered inwardly.
Lin Xuan had just been holding back his true strength earlier. Soon, he would unleash his full potential and leave them all in the dust.
Wang Dahe had an unshakable confidence in Lin Xuan. He was certain that Lin Xuan would lead Qinghua University to victory.
The professor from Qinghua University who had brought the team over paid no attention to the discussion.
He simply reminded them, "Do your best later. Don't stress too much. Just give it your all."
Lin Li walked over to Lin Xuan.
He lowered his voice and sneered, "Lin Xuan, isn't your school worried about being completely crushed by Yundu University with you on the team?"

Why do the demons and monsters in the prison wail miserably every night? Why has the corpse demon, capable of transforming into various beauties, donned black stockings and switched careers to become a foot massage therapist? Why has the eye demon, expert in soul-snatching and illusions, turned into a VR headset? Why is the fox spirit performing otaku dances? Are all these occurrences a twisted expression of demonic nature, or a descent into moral depravity? After peeling away layer upon layer of mystery, all clues ultimately point to a jailer named Gu Qingfeng. Gu Qingfeng: "Hehehe... My dear demons and monsters, whose card shall we flip today?"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
