After finishing the meal, Long Aotian went to the restroom.
It was Hu Yuying's first day transferring to this school, and she didn’t know many people here. Faced with an unfamiliar environment, she didn’t wander around but instead waited in place.
As long as Long Aotian walked out of the restroom, she would be able to see him.
"You take your time eating!" Ye Liangchen said, then used the reflection on his spoon to fix his hair.
After that, he walked toward Hu Yuying: "Hey, hello."
Hu Yuying, who had been waiting in place, suddenly heard a deep, magnetic voice with a hint of charm.
She couldn’t help but look up toward the source of the voice.
There, she saw a handsome young man with a gentle smile, waving at her as he approached.
"Do... do we know each other?" Hu Yuying asked softly, looking at the young man in front of her.
Ye Liangchen took in every detail of Hu Yuying’s expression, feeling incredibly fortunate about his decision.
In his dream, the day they met, they had locked eyes for just a moment, and it felt as if they could see the scars in each other’s hearts—an indescribable sense of destiny.
But now, Hu Yuying was looking at him with a confused and uncertain gaze.
He felt a pang of sadness. In the past, his treasure girl would always smile the moment she saw him.
It was as if his mere presence could bring her joy and happiness.
But now, her gaze was indifferent, as if he were just a random passerby on the street.
However, it didn’t matter. Soon, he would become her salvation.
The sense of destiny between them simply hadn’t begun yet.
Once it started, their connection would become tangled and inseparable!
It was just a matter of time!
Taking a deep breath, he confidently flicked his hair and said, "Hello, classmate. My name is Ye Liangchen. I’d like to be friends with you."
After speaking, he flashed a bright, cheerful smile, showing off his sunny and adorable side to Hu Yuying.
After what happened with Wang Shuo, Hu Yuying instinctively didn’t want to befriend male classmates.
And when faced with things she didn’t like, Hu Yuying would often respond with silence.
Ye Liangchen’s outstretched hand froze in mid-air.
The smile on his face gradually turned awkward.
Indeed, if he didn’t appear at the right time, that sense of destiny wouldn’t manifest.
Fortunately, Ye Liangchen had already prepared himself mentally before approaching her.
This time, he just wanted to leave an impression on Hu Yuying.
After all, in his dream, she was his treasure girl.
Seeing her again, even though she no longer had the memories from the dream, the excitement in his heart hadn’t diminished in the slightest!
It was fine. There was plenty of time, and their lives were long. They would meet, get to know each other, develop feelings, and walk together for a long time, just as planned.
This time, he would strengthen his mental resolve and not let his excitement lead to a lack of blood flow, ultimately...
This time, he would walk hand in hand with his three beautiful brides, living happily until the end of their lives...
With this belief in mind, Ye Liangchen casually retracted his frozen hand.
"You don’t need to be so guarded around me. I don’t have any bad intentions."
Ye Liangchen knew that Hu Yuying’s heart was still closed off.
Back then, it was only after going through many experiences together that he finally opened her heart.
He couldn’t rush things now, or it would seem too deliberate and backfire.
Just then, Hu Yuying’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Ye Liangchen was stunned for a moment, then a smile spread across his face.
He was all too familiar with that look—it was the same gaze Hu Yuying had given him in his dream.
He instinctively thought that Hu Yuying, his treasure girl, had also been reborn.
After all, she had been so guarded just moments ago, but now she was looking at him with such warmth!
"Did you also..."
Before he could finish, Hu Yuying walked right past him, heading toward the back.
Ye Liangchen froze, the smile vanishing from his face as he turned around in confusion to see where Hu Yuying was going.
To his shock, she was walking toward that scoundrel Long Aotian!
Anger!
Pure anger!
His gaze toward Long Aotian instantly turned icy.
"Long Aotian, your days are numbered!"
He could understand Hu Yuying’s current situation. If she resisted, she would only suffer even more cruel bullying and abuse from Long Aotian. Everything she was doing now was just to appease that scoundrel.
Only by doing so could she protect herself and endure less torment!
"Long Aotian, here’s a tissue to wipe your hands." Hu Yuying pulled several tissues from the dispenser on the cafeteria pillar, which she had been saving for this moment.
She really was a dutiful little follower.
"Hmm, not bad. You’re getting more clever," Long Aotian praised without hesitation.
No one dislikes being praised, even for something as simple as this.
For example, hearing Long Aotian say she was clever made Hu Yuying happy. After all, no matter what she did, she had always been met with criticism. But with Long Aotian, she finally felt acknowledged, and that made her happy.
Long Aotian frowned slightly, sensing someone’s gaze on him.
The feeling of being watched was quite noticeable!
He looked up, scanning the direction of the gaze.
After a brief glance, he looked away.
Long Aotian only knew the male lead’s name was Ye Liangchen but had no idea what he looked like.
When Ye Liangchen saw Long Aotian glance at him, his heart skipped a beat.
Even after being reborn, he couldn’t help but feel a shiver of fear at Long Aotian’s ruthlessness and methods!
But when he saw Long Aotian look away after just a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief.
That’s right!
He had almost forgotten that at this point, he and Long Aotian had no connection whatsoever.
Naturally, Long Aotian didn’t recognize him.
After all, Long Aotian wasn’t a reborn individual like him!
If he were, after being driven to bankruptcy in the dream and ending up holding a half-rotten fried dough stick while dying on the streets, he would have come after Ye Liangchen for revenge.
There was no way he would be so calm upon seeing him.
Moreover, although Ye Liangchen’s body was 18 years old, his soul was 28. He could tell that Long Aotian’s glance held no pretense.
He truly didn’t recognize him!
"Just you wait. With the memories from my dream, I’m no longer someone you can bully at will!"
"In this life, you’re destined to look up to me!"
This was the confidence and determination that being reborn had given Ye Liangchen.
Right now, he might not be a match for Long Aotian, but the tides would turn. The young and poor should never be underestimated!
Ye Liangchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Yuying, just endure a little longer. In this life, I will definitely protect you!"
With this resolution firmly in his heart, he returned to his seat at the dining table.
Meanwhile, Hu Yuying had already forgotten about Ye Liangchen, happily following Long Aotian as they left the cafeteria.

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.
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.”
