Chen Yusheng soon got her answer.
Su Bai suggested they duo queue for a few rounds of games.
So Chen Yusheng sat across from him.
Out of habit, she lifted her legs, looking for a place to rest her feet.
Only then did she realize how spacious the area under this gaming desk was.
The cables from the electronic devices were neatly tucked into slots, with extension cords and securing clips designed in a way that allowed her black-stockinged legs to stretch out effortlessly.
"How about this? Comfortable?"
"Mhm, very~"
Chen Yusheng narrowed her eyes in satisfaction—this was exactly her kind of thing.
How to put it? Just so relaxing!
And good for her health too, since her circulation wasn’t great. Stretching her legs like this helped with blood flow.
Who would’ve thought Su Bai’s gaming desk design would take this into account?
"The depth of this desk was specially calculated—just enough for your legs to stretch over while keeping the monitor at the right distance… So? Pretty clever, huh?"
"Extremely clever!" Chen Yusheng praised, then added curiously, "But won’t you get tired with my legs like this?"
"Tired? I’d be thrilled!"
Soon, the game began.
And Chen Yusheng quickly understood why Su Bai said he wouldn’t get tired.
His physical stamina was downright inhuman now.
This little weight was nothing to him.
Comfortable!
So comfortable that Chen Yusheng played exceptionally well this round.
Carrying Su Bai through the Gold-tier matches, they dominated so hard it was practically bullying—but in the most stylish way.
The enemy team even started flaming Su Bai in chat.
Yep, they assumed Chen Yusheng was some pro player carrying her "girlfriend," with Su Bai being the "girl."
Chen Yusheng couldn’t stop grinning the entire time.
The funniest part? Su Bai, that weirdo, leaned into the act and started typing overly cutesy, saccharine lines in chat, pretending to be a girl.
It had Chen Yusheng laughing uncontrollably, her voice bubbling with a carefree, "Geh geh geh~"
A sound brimming with youthful joy and natural delight.
...
Now drowsy, Chen Yusheng sighed in mock frustration.
Ugh, her original plan for the night was to grind ranks hard, but Su Bai’s creative gaming desk setup was just too good.
It perfectly catered to both their needs.
How does his brain even work? Always coming up with the most bizarre yet oddly fitting ideas.
Living with someone like him, even as they grew older, would probably keep her feeling young at heart, wouldn’t it?
She understood that staying youthful in spirit had nothing to do with maturity—they were two separate things.
Some girls mistook worldliness for maturity, dismissing genuinely kind-hearted men as "immature."
Like that trending phrase online these days—"The first sword after success strikes down your loved one."
Or wives constantly pushing their husbands to "do better."
Every time Chen Yusheng saw stories like that, she couldn’t help but think those girls were being utterly foolish.
Finding a man who truly loves you is already a rare blessing—why demand so much more?
Those girls were the ones who hadn’t truly grown up.
Chen Yusheng’s outlook was simpler. She didn’t need Su Bai to bend over backwards to please her or cater to her every emotional whim.
As long as she could keep doing the research she loved, spending her days gaming and watching anime with Su Bai, life was already peak happiness.
Spiritual fulfillment like this would keep their love strong for years to come.
Even as she drifted off to sleep, that sweetness lingered in her heart.
So when her phone buzzed with a message from the research group’s WeChat chat, she was already too far gone to reply.
Su Bai would have to check it for her.

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"

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.
