As soon as these words were spoken, Jun Zilan was momentarily speechless. Yes, indeed.
If the Gu Family was just a small clan, the master probably wouldn't have gone looking for a husband from the mundane world.
Alas, the master has sacrificed so much for the plan. It would have been enough for Bai Lian to seduce such a man.
The master truly is the master. Is it because she didn't want her subordinates to endure such suffering that she took on the task herself?
Master, you truly love us!
Mei Xue didn't know what Jun Zilan was thinking, but most importantly, she couldn't let him report this matter to the master.
After all, her original task was supposed to be to protect Gu Yan.
Sure enough, the next second, Jun Zilan asked, "Does the master know about this? Does she know you didn't protect Gu Yan but instead protected Miss Ling'er?"
As he spoke, Jun Zilan opened his folding fan and said proudly, "Not to mention anything else, with me guarding Miss Ling'er, her safety is guaranteed."
Mei Xue shook her head, "The master doesn't know about this, but I also hope you don't say anything."
"What? The master doesn't know?"
Jun Zilan was stunned, about to say something, when Mei Xue continued, "The master sent me to protect Gu Yan out of concern that he might die."
"But he has a master-level expert protecting him, so he doesn't need us innate martial artists. Miss Ling'er is different."
"Miss Ling'er is the master's only sister. With only you by her side, to be honest, I'm not very reassured."
"The others are too busy with their own missions, so I believe protecting Miss Ling'er, the master's only family member, is far more important than protecting someone with a master-level expert by their side."
"For example, if Gu Yan, this mere mortal from the mundane world, dies, the master probably wouldn't care at all."
"But... if Miss Ling'er dies, everything will be over. At least, I think the master would be extremely heartbroken."
"If you tell the master about this, she will definitely order me to protect Gu Yan again, but what if something happens to Miss Ling'er then?"
"Can you bear that responsibility? The master entrusted Miss Ling'er to you because she trusts your strength."
"But with the current turbulent situation, the Black Tortoise Gate has targeted Miss Ling'er's classmate as their heir. Is this a coincidence or a premeditated move? Do you dare to bet you can handle everything?"
"Not to mention, according to my investigation, Miss Ling'er's best friend is Miss Bai of the Bai Family, whose brother is the most talented master in the Martial Arts Department."
"If the Martial Arts Department discovers Miss Ling'er's connection with us, the [Night]..."
At this point, Jun Zilan was already feeling conflicted. Hearing Mei Xue's reasoning, it seemed that if multiple forces attacked together, he alone wouldn't be able to protect Miss Ling'er.
Moreover, he had his own considerations. If he told the master that he might not be able to handle it alone, it could lower the master's trust and favor towards him...
Ugh! That would be terrible!
Jun Zilan's face turned pale.
He quickly nodded in agreement, "You're right, I agree with your point."
"However, I didn't expect that mundane man to actually care about protecting Miss Ling'er... This makes me a bit unsure of him."
Seeing this, Mei Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, she had managed to convince him.
Gu Yan... this time, it's still me who saved you.
If the master knew your true face, she would probably order your immediate execution.
Thinking of the master, Mei Xue felt an overwhelming sense of heartache.
The master has sacrificed so much for the plan, even pretending to be in love with that man. Sigh...
Master, please rest assured, we subordinates will become stronger as soon as possible and help you take over the Gu Family!!
......
......
Time slowly passed, and half a month later.
While waiting for the plot to unfold, Gu Yan had been staying at the Leng Family, living a loving life with Leng Qingqiu.
He prepared three meals a day with care, and massages were a daily routine.
In just half a month, Leng Qingqiu had grown accustomed to having Gu Yan around.
For example, right now, on the sofa.
"Gu Yan~ Ah~~"
Leng Qingqiu, wearing a little bear pajama, lay on the sofa with her feet swaying, her mouth open.
"Alright, alright, do you want to eat some fruit?"
Gu Yan, wearing an apron, walked over with a toothpick holding a grape, feeding it to Leng Qingqiu's mouth.
"Mmm, delicious!"
"Of course, it was specially airlifted."
Gu Yan smirked and then went to clean up elsewhere.
After half a month of cohabitation, the relationship between the two seemed to be gradually warming up.
So much so that... Leng Qingqiu seemed to have forgotten something important.
"It tastes good, we can buy more next time..."
"Mmm..."
"!!!!!"
As Leng Qingqiu ate, her expression suddenly changed.
Wait! How long has it been since I attended any organization meetings or activities?!
Leng Qingqiu thought of this and broke out in a cold sweat. It's over.
Because of the past half month of being taken care of so meticulously by Gu Yan, she almost became a comfortable worm that didn't want to do anything!
And because she had been spending all her time with Gu Yan, she had no opportunity to sneak out and act as the [Night King].
Leng Qingqiu's expression grew heavy. Even her usual favorite study spot, the study, was neglected, and her learning progress had fallen behind.
She covered her face, sinking into deep self-doubt. Is this also part of Gu Yan's plan?
To prevent me from taking over the Gu Family, so you want to turn me into a useless person?!
Never!
Leng Qingqiu regained her resolve. She finally understood what she should do!
Revenge!
That's what she should focus on now!!
"That's right... you can no longer tempt me."
Leng Qingqiu muttered to herself, just as she was about to get up.
Gu Yan, with a kind expression, walked over, "Qingqiu, don't move. Next is the health massage; it can help to unblock the meridians."
Massage?!
Leng Qingqiu's heart skipped a beat, feeling conflicted.
No, no, Leng Qingqiu, you've become too lazy.
Have you become so decadent because of the comfortable life in this warm nest?!
She took a deep breath, "I refu..."
Before she could finish, Gu Yan started massaging her lower back.
Leng Qingqiu collapsed onto the sofa, unable to move.
Forget it, I'll finish the massage first.
Half an hour later, Leng Qingqiu, with a rosy complexion, sat up on the sofa.
She stretched her body, hmm~~ not bad, not bad.
Gu Yan's technique is really comfortable, I wonder where he learned it.
However, next, I must do something serious. If I keep indulging in this warm nest, it will affect my judgment on many things.
Alright, time to study in the study. No matter what Gu Yan does next, I won't...
Just as she thought this, sniff sniff~
Leng Qingqiu seemed to smell something sweet. She subconsciously looked towards the kitchen.
Then she saw Gu Yan carrying a tray over.
Gu Yan, seeing Leng Qingqiu recover, smiled and walked over with the tray.
On it was a caramel pudding made with divine culinary skills, using top-tier ingredients purchased from the system.
Gu Yan sat beside Leng Qingqiu, scooping a spoonful and feeding it to her, "Qingqiu, this is today's afternoon tea. Open your mouth."
It's pudding! Damn it, it's another one of my favorites!
Is this also part of your plan?
Leng Qingqiu was shocked, unable to believe Gu Yan could always hit her weak spot.
Damn it, since it's pudding, I can't waste it.
"Ah~"
And so, Gu Yan began his feeding duty for the day.
[Pure Love Object is very satisfied, +600 points~]
[Pure Love Object is very content, +1000 points~]
[Pure Love Object...]
Hearing the system's notifications in his mind, Gu Yan's lips curled slightly.
Good, as long as Qingqiu likes it. And now, half a month has passed.
The plot... is about to begin.
Gu Yan's eyes flashed with a mysterious glint.
There's going to be a lot of work ahead.

agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

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.

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?!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
