A cat??
"Gu Yan, you have a cat?"
Leng Qingqiu was somewhat surprised. She hadn’t expected Gu Yan to be the type to keep pets. Why had she never heard him mention it before?
Gu Yan: "........"
Well, this was awkward. He glanced at Yeye, who was affectionately rubbing against Leng Qingqiu's ankle.
He forced himself to say, "Ah... her name is Yeye. I haven’t had her for long."
"How long is 'not long'?"
"...You’re asking too many questions, you little brat."
"!! You’re such a jerk, Gu Yan!"
Leng Qingqiu, meanwhile, nodded thoughtfully.
Yeye...
"That’s a really nice name. I didn’t know you had such a knack for naming things, Gu Yan!"
"And... Yeye seems so friendly with me, even though it’s our first meeting."
Leng Qingqiu was quite pleased with the name.
But wasn’t the cat acting a little too familiar with her?
Gu Yan, who had just been complaining about the name last night, quickly chimed in, "Yeah, I knew you’d like it!"
"As for why she’s so attached to you... maybe Yeye thinks you’re beautiful too!"
"Anyway, let’s not dwell on it. We should get going! We’ve got a lot planned for today!"
When Leng Qingqiu asked her second question, Gu Yan broke out in a cold sweat.
He couldn’t stay here any longer.
"Alright, let’s go."
......
......
In the car.
Leng Ling'er sat in the back seat, while Leng Qingqiu took the passenger seat.
Gu Yan, of course, was the driver.
"Ladies, please fasten your seatbelts. I am your tour guide, driver, and fiancé, Gu Yan. You may call me Little Gu."
"Alright, Little Gu, let’s get going, Little Gu."
"........As you wish."
The car started.
Leng Qingqiu leaned back in her seat, enjoying the comfort of the moment.
Going out like this...
It was something she would never have even dreamed of in the past.
She never had the time, nor would she have ever considered wasting time on something as frivolous as a day out.
But...
As she spent more time with Gu Yan, she found her old thoughts of revenge gradually fading away.
She knew it wasn’t right, but sometimes, a moment of happiness would make her forget all the troubles.
Maybe that’s why Little Cold had awakened to remind her.
Now, as she became more aware of her feelings for Gu Yan, Leng Qingqiu also grew more determined to become the true Night King.
Because...
The fake Night King was lurking in the shadows, and dangers were everywhere.
The power of the Gu family alone wasn’t enough.
Only by becoming stronger, by becoming the strongest in the world, could she protect Gu Yan.
That’s right.
Once she became the Night King and completed her revenge, she would dedicate herself to protecting Gu Yan and Ling'er.
That would be enough...
All the forces that had come to Jianghai had been wiped out, and the few survivors didn’t matter.
It wasn’t her doing.
But...
Today, she would allow herself to relax a little.
She asked, "Gu Yan, where are we going today?"
Gu Yan, who was driving, smiled mysteriously. "It’s a secret, but I promise you’ll love it."
"Is that so? Hmph, I’ll hold you to that."
Leng Qingqiu smirked.
But she had her own concerns.
First of all...
Her appearance wasn’t much different from that of a blind person.
She worried...
If they went to a crowded place, would people stare at Gu Yan and Ling'er?
She didn’t care about herself.
But Gu Yan and Ling'er—these two people she cared about—what if they were subjected to whispers because of her?
If that happened, this outing might not be so enjoyable after all.
She didn’t want to ruin the mood, so she hoped things wouldn’t turn out that way.
Meanwhile, Leng Ling'er piped up from the back seat, "Little Gu, don’t you have any water in this car?"
"Nope! Just swallow your saliva!"
Gu Yan rolled his eyes. Who do you think you are, calling me Little Gu?
"! Gu Yan!"
Leng Ling'er was furious.
Leng Qingqiu covered her mouth, trying to suppress a laugh. "Gu Yan, stop teasing her. I’m a bit thirsty too."
"Ah, you’re thirsty? Ling'er, open the mini fridge in the back. There’s water in there."
Gu Yan immediately changed his tone.
Leng Ling'er: "........"
Leng Qingqiu took the water and said with a helpless smile, "Gu Yan, stop picking on Ling'er."
"Yeah, yeah!"
Leng Ling'er agreed from the back, feeling touched.
Sis! You finally remembered me!
But Gu Yan didn’t respond. Instead, he suddenly said, "Did you feel that earthquake just now?"
??
"No? What are you talking about?"
Leng Qingqiu was confused. Why was he bringing this up?
The next second.
She felt her left hand being taken by his.
"If there wasn’t an earthquake, then why did my heart tremble when you spoke?"
!!
Leng Ling'er was stunned. What... what kind of cheesy line is that?!
Brother-in-law, could you maybe take some lessons from me? If you don’t know how to flirt, just watch my videos!
"That’s such a corny pickup line!"
Leng Qingqiu, embarrassed, tried to pull her hand away. "You’re so embarrassing! Just focus on driving!"
"Hehe, Qingqiu, you told me not to tease Ling'er, so I’m teasing you instead."
"? So you’re using these cheesy lines to mess with me?"
"Yep, and I’m not just teasing—I want to knock some sense into you!"
"Knock some sense into me? Why?"
"Because you’re knock-out gorgeous!"
Leng Qingqiu’s breath hitched. "?!!"
But Gu Yan seemed to be on a roll.
He got more and more excited.
"Qingqiu~ my Qingqiu~~!"
"Do you know? Loving you is the most serious thing I’ve ever done!"
"My heart belongs to me, but it’s filled with you!"
Ahhh...
Leng Qingqiu’s cheeks turned bright red. She quickly pulled her hand away and covered her ears.
She curled up in the passenger seat, her head down, trembling all over.
This... this is so embarrassing!
It’s just as bad as when Gu Yan said—your words hit me like a truck!
And he said all this in front of Ling'er!
But the worst part is... she actually liked hearing it!
How annoying...!
It must be because Gu Yan kept saying these things, and now her brain was used to it!
Ugh! I’m ignoring him!
Leng Qingqiu took a deep breath and said, "Stop talking! I’m going to take a nap."
"Sleeping is good. I’ll have some sweet nothings to whisper to you in your dreams."
"Just shut up already!"
Leng Qingqiu was so embarrassed she felt like she might faint.
Stop, stop, if you keep going, I’ll lose it.
[The other me... is this what you call restraint...?]
"What do you know?"
"You shut up too!"
Leng Qingqiu was completely flustered.
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
