In Su Xiyan's bedroom, the ceiling light had already been turned off, and only a small nightlight on the bedside table was emitting a faint yellow light, making the whole room feel warm and cozy.
Su Xiyan was half-lying against the headboard, still holding an open book in her hand.
Chen Shuo looked at Su Xiyan and sighed helplessly, muttering to himself: "She can even fall asleep like this? What a pig!"
Su Xiyan, who was pretending to be asleep, thought inwardly: "You're the pig!"
She really wanted to jump up from the bed immediately and beat Chen Shuo into a pig head. Then ask him who was the real pig.
Just as she was about to snap, Su Xiyan suddenly smelled the fragrance of food.
Chen Shuo tiptoed to Su Xiyan's bedside and gently placed the plate of shredded pork and noodle on the bedside table.
He also took a clean napkin, spread it out, and put the chopsticks on it.
Su Xiyan secretly opened her eyes a slit and watched Chen Shuo's attentive actions in the lamplight.
Her gaze was drawn to the bowl of colorful and aromatic noodles.
He does care about me after all! He knew to bring food over.
At this moment, Su Xiyan's heart felt as warm as the noodles.
After putting down the noodles, Chen Shuo did not leave immediately. He stood by the bedside looking at the sleeping Su Xiyan.
She really lives up to being the all-around school beauty. She looks quite beautiful even when sleeping. The sleeping beauty in fairy tales must be like her!
Apart from being a bit fierce, everything else about her is quite good.
Seeing Su Xiyan's arm was outside the quilt, Chen Shuo gently pulled the quilt and covered her arm.
He wanted to wake Su Xiyan up to eat the noodles, but what if she was stubborn and refused to eat after being woken up? Or, like at dinnertime, irrationally demanded that he make another plate from scratch?
Forget it, better make a run for it!
Chen Shuo turned and left Su Xiyan's room, silently closing the door.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Su Xiyan finally opened her eyes.
The extra quilt that Chen Shuo had helped cover her with made her feel a bit hot in the middle of summer.
After a while, Su Xiyan held her breath and listened. When she heard the sound of Chen Shuo closing his door, she quickly got out of bed to eat the noodles.
Slurp~~!
Such delicious noodles!
The next morning, when Chen Shuo got up to make breakfast, he discovered an unwashed bowl in the kitchen sink.
Su Xiyan had eaten the noodles last night?
Hmm...she finished them very cleanly!!
After preparing breakfast, Chen Shuo carried the fragrant white porridge and crispy pickled cucumber to the living room.
Su Xiyan had already washed up and was sitting at the table playing with her phone.
Her black hair, left loose instead of tied up, cascaded down like a waterfall, giving off a glossy sheen.
While helping Su Xiyan serve the porridge, Chen Shuo asked, "How were the noodles?"
As aloof as ever, Su Xiyan replied, "The taste was decent."
"Use less shredded pork next time, add a few more shrimps instead."
"Oh right, remember to peel and dice the shrimps into pieces, it'll be easier to eat that way."
Chen Shuo felt very exasperated: "What next time? You should be grateful I made noodles for you this once. And now you're making demands?"
Seemingly in a good mood, Su Xiyan took a sip of the sweet porridge and squinted her eyes slightly, asking, "Did you do anything else last night when you came into my room, other than bringing supper?"
Chen Shuo: "???"
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in you!! Besides, I prefer proactive girls, while you were sleeping like a pig, I..."
Su Xiyan's slender brows knitted together: "Chen Shuo, what are you talking about? I meant, did you help cover me with the quilt?"
Chen Shuo patted his chest and heaved a long sigh of relief: "Oh, that's what you meant?"
Su Xiyan: "Mm-hmm? What did you think I was talking about?"
Chen Shuo: "Don't think too much. The only reason I helped cover you with the quilt wasn't because I was afraid you'd catch a cold, but for the school's honor."
"If you did get sick with a fever or something, who would go and fence for the Fencing Club in the friendly competition? Rely on other members? Or make me wear your clothes and take your place?"
"Also, the opposing fencing club has vampires. You need to stay in top form to hunt vampires, earn points, and quickly get promoted to become a legendary demon hunter, to help me reverse my lineage - that is the main issue."
"If not for these two reasons, I wouldn't have bothered covering you with a quilt!"
Listening to Chen Shuo's serious explanation, Su Xiyan's eyes smiled. She didn't get angry at all.
Chen Shuo angrily continued complaining: "Had I known you were so unappreciative, I wouldn't have just left your quilt as is, I'd have flipped it completely off you!"
The corners of Su Xiyan's lips curved up into an amused smile: "Go ahead and try next time??"
Chen Shuo pictured the scene of flipping Su Xiyan's quilt off - she would be wearing a flimsy strappy nightgown, wouldn't her assets be exposed in all their glory??
If that absolutely wouldn't work, at least seeing her legs would do!
Snapping out of his pleasant imaginings, Chen Shuo hurriedly collected himself:
"Trying to bait me into breaking rules again? I won't fall for it!"
A meaningful smile spread across Su Xiyan's charming face: "From now on, baiting you into breaking rules will become my normal state. Let's see if you can withstand it."
Chen Shuo could only cry for help internally - this woman is too vicious!!
After finishing breakfast, Su Xiyan was about to go back to her room to change when she suddenly halted her steps. Pointing to the pickled cucumber that accompanied the porridge, she said:
"Eat less cucumber, your mind is full of yellow trash!!"
Chen Shuo: ???
The one with a mind full of filthy thoughts doesn't seem to be me!
Busy days always pass quickly.
Chen Shuo felt like his relationship with Su Xiyan had been very off lately!
It didn't seem like they were housemates living together, nor did it seem like they were cooperating partners.
On the contrary, it was more like...a bickering couple in daily life?
Why did he have this strange feeling?
Su Xiyan was like a poppy flower - stunningly beautiful, yet also fatally dangerous!
As the ancients said, the character for "color" has a knife above it.
He must not let his mind be confused just because she was pretty.
Chen Shuo's gaze was exceptionally firm. He reminded himself that he absolutely could not be bewitched by Su Xiyan.
This viperous woman must be plotting something bad!
Chen Shuo decided that other than necessary interactions, he had to keep his distance from Su Xiyan.
There were only two days left until the friendly fencing competition between Nanda University and Wangjing College of Media's Fencing Clubs.
The competition date was set for next Monday.
The fencing club members all assumed they would be training hard in the fencing club over the weekend.
Unexpectedly, after finishing Saturday's training, Su Xiyan actually announced a day off on Sunday!
"Rest for a day tomorrow, everyone adjust your condition, pay attention to diet and rest, and get ready to win the match on Monday!"
Hearing Su Xiyan's announcement, the fencing club members were first stunned.
Looks of disbelief floated onto their faces.
Student Leader Su, who was usually almost harsh with her requirements, was actually giving everyone a day off?
Good heavens, what heavenly treatment was this?
The fencing club members seemed afraid Su Xiyan would change her mind. They hurriedly rushed off, nimble as fleeing rabbits, to go change in the locker room.
The girls gathered together and looked left and right to confirm Su Xiyan was not in the locker room before starting to gossip:
"Do you guys feel Student Leader Su and Student Chen seem to be in a relationship?"

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!

Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years."

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"

+【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!
