After parting ways with the group, Shen Mengjie found an excuse to leave early.
Han Xiaojing and Wang Lijuan watched Shen Mengjie walk away nonchalantly and then returned to their dormitory.
Shen Mengjie didn’t have to wait long after leaving.
A heartfelt call rang out from not far behind her.
The voice, magnetic and gentle, sent a shiver down Shen Mengjie’s spine.
Quickly adjusting her emotions, she turned around.
She saw Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua striding towards her.
Throughout the entire process, both Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua breathed a great sigh of relief.
“Thank goodness, thank goodness, Mengjie, you’re alright,” Ye Liangchen said, clenching his fists tightly. “If Long Aotian dared to harm you, I would never forgive him!”
Xue Shaohua didn’t speak, but instead, gazed at Shen Mengjie with eyes full of deep emotion, then dramatically flicked his hair to reveal the earring on his left ear.
He always believed that a gaze full of affection could surpass any words.
What’s more, Shen Mengjie had feelings for him too.
“What are you two doing here?” Shen Mengjie asked softly, raising her slightly misty eyes. After a moment of hesitation, she continued in a low voice, “Actually, Long Aotian didn’t do anything to me.”
This was her response to the message Ye Liangchen had sent her earlier.
“No, you’re saying this because you don’t really know Long Aotian. His heart is as black as coal,” Ye Liangchen said in a deep voice. “If I hadn’t been here today to intimidate Long Aotian, who knows what outrageous things he might have done to you.”
“Mengjie, believe me, a person who forced my treasure girl, who stole my white moonlight and little childhood sweetheart, such a person is utterly heartless!”
Xue Shaohua, who had been silent, couldn’t help but speak up, “I can vouch for this. Long Aotian once beat us up for no reason. He’s really bad, don’t be deceived by his appearance.”
It was a fact that Long Aotian had hit them, so Xue Shaohua’s words carried a particular sincerity.
Shen Mengjie looked at the two of them with amusement, her words emboldened by the alcohol, “You always say how bad Long Aotian is, how he stole the girls who originally liked you.”
“You always say Long Aotian has ill intentions towards me and that you’ll protect me, but what have you done?”
“If Long Aotian is really as bad as you say, if you truly want to protect me from harm, shouldn’t you do something? Or are you just all talk?”
“To be honest, you’re not even as good as Long Aotian. At least from my interactions with him, he doesn’t seem as bad as you make him out to be.”
After saying this, Shen Mengjie let out a self-mocking chuckle, then turned away, disappointed.
The more disappointed Shen Mengjie appeared, the deeper the impact on Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua’s hearts.
This was indeed the case.
Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua were indeed anxious upon hearing this. They exchanged a glance and then hurried forward to say earnestly, "If I already have a plan to deal with Long Aotian, would you be willing to cooperate with us?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Mengjie gently lifted her chin, her slightly tipsy and dreamy eyes showing a hint of interest.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen continued, "Just like I said earlier, you can pretend to be involved with Long Aotian, and when he truly falls for you, you can then come into my arms, turning all of Long Aotian's expectations into mere bubbles. This way, we can break Long Aotian's psychological defenses!"
Xue Shaohua looked at Ye Liangchen in confusion, coming into his arms?
How was this so different from the plan he had previously told him?
Shen Mengjie chuckled softly, "But hasn't Long Aotian already forced your 'treasure girl'? Even if he doesn't get me, he still has what you call the 'treasure girl' by his side, and perhaps even a 'white moonlight' and 'little green plum'. I don't believe Long Aotian's psychological defenses are that fragile."
Ye Liangchen slowly shook his head, straightened his back, and looked deeply into Shen Mengjie's eyes. "How could I let you act alone?"
"During your pretended involvement with Long Aotian, I will use a third-person perspective to capture all the falseness Long Aotian shows towards you."
"I will expose Long Aotian's ugly face to all the girls he has deceived, helping them see his true evil nature. From then on, everyone will understand what kind of person Long Aotian really is."
"In the end, Long Aotian will not only lose you but will also lose those kind-hearted, innocent girls he once deceived."
"This is the final step to break Long Aotian's psychological defenses!"
"This is the ultimate fate for the demon that is Long Aotian!"
After finishing, Ye Liangchen looked pleadingly at Shen Mengjie, "With your help, we can prevent more kind-hearted, innocent girls from being deceived by Long Aotian. Will you help us?"
"You are not Long Aotian's first target, and certainly not his last..."
Shen Mengjie feigned confusion for a moment before seriously looking up at Ye Liangchen, "Is everything you said true?"
"Truer than gold," Ye Liangchen replied with fervor, almost ready to swear to the heavens.
Upon seeing this, Shen Mengjie's pupils flickered, "Are you confident that those girls who see through Long Aotian's true nature will willingly leave him?"
"If it truly is as you say, saving those deceived girls, then I am willing."
Even Shen Mengjie herself didn't realize how tightly she clenched her fist and how much her heart raced as she said this...
"I know what you're worried about; you're afraid of all efforts going to waste," Ye Liangchen smiled confidently and flicked his hair, "I am confident, because no one wants to be deceived forever, right?"
"And no one would want to be repeatedly betrayed, right?"
Although Hu Yuying was kind-hearted and innocent, Ye Liangchen simply couldn’t believe she could tolerate Long Aotian’s fickleness without feeling heartbroken!
It’s widely known that a girl’s emotional defenses are at their weakest when she’s heartbroken.
If he could seize the opportunity during this vulnerable period and make Hu Yuying realize that he was the one who had always been there for her, the one who had always wanted to save her…
By then, if something were to happen between him and Hu Yuying, wouldn’t it just fall into place naturally?
Besides, he had Hu Yuying’s business plan in his possession…
That’s why Ye Liangchen felt rather confident.
Shen Mengjie, on the other hand, looked at Ye Liangchen, but her heart was filled with sympathy for Long Aotian.
She had always believed that there’s no such thing as a cat that doesn’t stray.
Long Aotian was no exception, because deep down, they were the same kind of person.
Perhaps it was the repeated setbacks she had faced with Long Aotian that fueled her competitive spirit.
Or maybe she simply wanted to drag someone like Long Aotian down with her into the abyss.
Whatever the reason, she had never thought of herself as a good person, and she genuinely wanted to see whether the bond between Long Aotian and his little girlfriend was truly strong enough.
After all, if something can be taken away, it was never worth holding onto in the first place…
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.

【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. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
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.”
