The next day.
Early morning.
【I am Qin Luo】
【When you see this message】
【I have already.......】
【gone out to buy groceries (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤】
Su Muwan, who had just woken up and wandered to the dining table, fell silent as she stared at the note in her hand, which was emitting dark smoke.
Two seconds later.
Snap!
She tossed away the note made of black mist, her pupils trembling.
Seriously?!
Qin Luo, are you okay?!
You made it sound like you got dragged into some bizarre incident again!
Ugh, can anyone relate? Ever since Qin Luo got together with her, he’s become more and more outrageous!
But whatever.
Tummy’s rumbling.
Su Muwan rubbed her stomach, torn between breakfast and lunch.
In the end, she chose snacks.
A moment later.
"Ta-da~!"
Su Muwan piled all the snacks onto the coffee table.
Standing before the table with her arms crossed, she scrutinized the bags of chips with a serious expression.
Tapping her fingers lightly, she muttered to herself, "Should I go for cucumber flavor this time...?"
"Cool and refreshing, with a hint of countryside charm."
"The crisp texture wrapped in that fresh, clean taste... Hmm..."
"No, let’s think again."
Su Muwan shook her head and shifted her gaze to another bag, raising an eyebrow. "Tomato flavor..."
"Rich and robust, like the soul of an Italian tomato meat sauce condensed into every chip, each one coated in the perfect balance of sweet and tangy tomato essence."
"One bite, and the burst of tomato juice—oh wait, no juice."
Then her eyes landed on another bag, and her pupils shrank. Her voice turned grave. "Red stew flavor?!"
"That deep, aromatic blend of spices—onion’s subtle sweetness, tomato’s richness, and the warmth of herbs, all melded together..."
Gasp!
Su Muwan sucked in a sharp breath. This was another flavor she found utterly irresistible!!!
Should she?
Should she go for the red stew flavor?!
Her hand trembled as she reached for the bag, her breathing growing ragged.
The taste of red stew unfolds in layers—first a gentle spice that tingles the taste buds, then a rising sweetness, and finally, the lingering aftertaste of spices dancing on the tongue.
Slurp~
Su Muwan licked her lips, her eyes blazing.
Red stew, you devil... You’re just too tempting!!
But!
But can I really surrender to red stew like this?!
Her face twisted in conflict as she used her left hand to restrain her eager right hand.
Hold on, right hand!!
After finally finishing all that work!!
Can’t you even last one minute before picking the final chip flavor?!
Su Muwan, oh Su Muwan! Is this really you?!
You’re the Martial Arts Supreme! The Grandmaster of Chip Tasting!
Even without Qin Luo around, you can laze around all day.
But!
Will you really fall to red stew flavor?!
The answer is... No!
Only by enduring to the limit can you experience the ultimate bliss when you finally indulge!
Haven’t you proven this yourself, Su Muwan?!
Gritting her teeth, she forcefully yanked her hand back from the red stew chips.
"Huff... Huff..."
Panting, she glared at the bag on the table, her expression one of lingering fear.
You crafty red stew.
Even after I’ve devoured tens of thousands of bags, you still dare to tempt me?!
Even now, you refuse to give up?!
"A formidable foe," Su Muwan murmured, her face deadly serious.
But...
Her eyes swept over the other chip bags. Is there more?
Could there possibly be a flavor more perfect, more enticing, more unforgettable than red stew?!
Does such a thing even exist?!
Her resolve wavered again, and her trembling hand inched once more toward the red stew chips.
Gulp!
She swallowed hard as she stared at the bag.
Think about it, Su Muwan. Nothing surpasses red stew chips in status!
That’s right...
Just relax, Su Muwan. Accept the red stew chips. Indulge in—
But!! Suddenly!!
A mysterious golden light erupted from the corner of the coffee table.
So... So bright!
Su Muwan froze mid-reach, squinting against the glare as she turned toward the source.
And what she saw made her pupils shrink.
That was!!
"Original flavor chips?!!"
BOOM!
Her mind exploded like it had been struck by lightning.
Stunned, she stared at the bag of original chips radiating that golden light, her feet rooted to the spot.
How could I forget?
Her body trembled slightly. Su Muwan... How could you forget?!
Original flavor—seemingly plain, yet the epitome of "returning to simplicity" in the chip world.
Its pure potato aroma is the ultimate tribute to the ingredient’s natural essence.
One bite, and you’re greeted with the earthy, wholesome richness of the potato itself!!
That’s the gift of the soil itself!!
Gasp! Pant!
Su Muwan covered her face, the pressure overwhelming.
No! If anything!!
Original flavor is the GOAT!!
Don’t forget, Su Muwan!
The joy you felt when you first tore open that bag of original chips and took that first bite!
That was—
【Big Sis Su, can I have some chips too?】
【Here】
【Thanks, sis!】
Memories of the past flashed before her eyes.
Even if she’s now the so-called "wicked woman" in people’s stories...
You can’t deny it! Even as a child, she had forged an unbreakable bond with original chips!!
So!
Su Muwan snatched up the original chips and raised them high.
Eyes gleaming, she declared, "I choose you!"
"Original flavor chips!"
The next second.
Riiip~ The bag was torn open.
Crunch crunch!
She stuffed a chip into her mouth, her face lighting up with bliss as her eyes curved into happy crescents.
Between bites, she grabbed a cola and took a huge gulp, the fizz bursting in her mouth with exhilarating sharpness.
"Alright, now let’s try the other flavors too."
Original chips: ???
A short while later.
Crunch crunch~~!
Su Muwan lounged lazily on the sofa in her adorable shark pajamas.
The oversized shark hood drooped loosely behind her, the tail swaying side to side as she moved.
Munching on chips, she scrolled through TikTok.
Don’t get the wrong idea—normally, Su Muwan isn’t this much of a couch potato.
It’s just that with nothing urgent to do, she figured she’d cut herself some slack.
As she’d put it herself...
【As the Martial Arts Supreme, can’t I just chill for once?!】
(Though the "Martial Arts Supreme" title was self-proclaimed, of course...)
Tap tap.
Swiping through videos, she had learned her lesson and created a new account this time.
Username: 【Sharkie in Deep Thought】
Her goal? To see what people online were really saying about her.
ial death, also known as "shè sǐ" in Chinese, generally refers to... well, never mind, it's not important.

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
