"It's a male dog, let's test the effect."
Upon seeing this, Su Cheng quickly crouched down and, just as the dog was about to run, grabbed its neck, attempting to make the dog's eyes meet his own.
"Whimper whimper~"
The takeout food fell from the dog's mouth.
"Look at me!"
The yellow dog, held by the throat by Su Cheng, couldn't speak at all and could only whimper, but its eyes did meet Su Cheng's gaze.
"Hmm, that should do it."
Su Cheng released his hand, and the yellow dog immediately turned and ran without a word, as if it had seen something terribly frightening.
He had just seen fear and dread in the dog's eyes.
If he had to describe it, his gaze just then must have been like that of a predator eyeing its prey.
"Just this... takeout?"
Su Cheng crouched down, picked up the takeout, looked at the delivery slip, and suddenly chuckled because the slip had a bunch of text written on it: "XX Villa District, please leave at the door..."
Isn't this Cornelia's?
Last time it was stolen by a kid, this time directly by a dog.
A 100% guaranteed takeout theft setting...
Well... that's quite amusing.
"Mommy, look, that big brother is stealing food from a dog, and he's laughing!"
Nearby, a pretty little girl in a pink dress who saw Su Cheng tugged at her mother's sleeve and shouted while pointing at Su Cheng in the distance.
"Don't be so rude, maybe the food originally belonged to the big brother, and he's just taking it back."
The middle-aged wealthy woman next to the child glared at the little girl, then gave Su Cheng an apologetic smile, indicating that the child was young and asking for his understanding.
"It's not mine!"
Su Cheng raised the takeout in his hand and grinned.
"See, the big brother is stealing from the dog, he even fought with it just now!"
The wealthy woman's face froze upon hearing this, and she picked up her child and left, not daring to stay a moment longer.
Su Cheng shrugged and walked toward the villa district, planning to leave the takeout at the door and then go home.
However, as soon as he arrived, he found a golden retriever wearing white socks pacing back and forth at the door.
It seemed to be looking for the takeout.
"The takeout was just carried away by a dog, here you go!"
Su Cheng approached and suddenly spoke.
Cornelia, who had her back to Su Cheng, was startled by this familiar voice, her twin tails almost standing straight up.
She slowly turned around, looking at Su Cheng with a strange and embarrassed expression, then suddenly huffed and turned her head away impatiently: "What takeout? I don't know what you're talking about!"
Since the rooftop incident, she had decided to ignore Su Cheng.
Why?
Because Su Cheng said she was tsundere and dependent on him.
How could she, with her extremely strong sense of pride, tolerate that!
Tsundere?
Dependent?
Heh!
She was nothing of the sort.
So she got angry, and the consequences were serious.
She decided to ignore Su Cheng.
Unless Su Cheng personally apologized to her, she would never acknowledge him again.
Moreover, this time the takeout was brought back by Su Cheng again.
If she accepted it, wouldn't that mean she was depending on him again?
"Is that so?"
Seeing Cornelia like a bristling kitten, Su Cheng found it quite amusing, then looked down at the delivery slip and feigned confusion, saying: "But this has your surname on it..."
Cornelia's face instantly turned as red as a tomato upon hearing this.
"Who... who asked you to do these unnecessary things!"
Then, she stamped her cute white-stockinged feet in embarrassed anger and started to defend herself, but the more flustered she became, the more incoherent her speech became, until finally, as if finding a reasonable excuse, she blurted out: "This... this was takeout I ordered for the dog!!"
Hearing this, Su Cheng was rendered speechless like never before - she was being so silly she was even insulting herself.
"Oh, I see."
Su Cheng pretended to show a look of sudden understanding, then looked at Cornelia again and apologetically said: "Sorry, I was meddling unnecessarily."
Cornelia sighed in relief upon hearing this, then crossed her arms and snorted coldly, saying impatiently: "Well, I can see you meant well, so I'll forgive you this time."
"Thank you. By the way, was the dog you were going to feed a golden retriever?"
Su Cheng asked curiously.
"Y-yes, that's right."
Cornelia nodded in agreement without suspicion.
"I just saw it and had a fight with it..."
Su Cheng lowered his head with a guilty expression: "And then..."
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Cornelia examined Su Cheng's body with concern, and only after seeing he wasn't injured did she instinctively ask: "What happened?"
Su Cheng looked up, smiled slightly, then raised the takeout in his hand, held it out to Cornelia, and said: "Then I beat it and got the takeout back. It's a golden loser!"
Cornelia looked at the takeout in front of her and fell silent.
She looked at the takeout in his hand, feeling an inexplicable sense of warmth and gratitude in her heart.
But these were feelings she absolutely couldn't admit to, so she said nothing.
Indeed, she was such a fool.
He had just been making fun of her in a roundabout way, but Cornelia hadn't caught on and instead felt touched?
What a silly girl.
Su Cheng shook his head, and finally pulled out a can of 'Eight Nuclear Bombs' from his back pocket, saying: "This is my apology for meddling."
Cornelia's eyes lit up at this, but she still shook her head and said with disgust: "I don't want your stupid apology gift, I already said I forgave you, why are you still bringing out all this random stuff?"
"Then I'll leave it for the golden retriever to drink."
Su Cheng placed the opened drink on a nearby stone bench with a disappointed expression, then turned to leave.
Seeing this, Cornelia became anxious and reached out to stop him, but she quickly withdrew her hand and could only watch as his figure disappeared from her sight.
A few minutes later
"Hehe..."
After looking left and right to make sure no one was around, Cornelia sneakily approached the 'Eight Nuclear Bombs' like a thief, swallowed hard, looked around again, then grabbed the drink without hesitation, took a big gulp, and a familiar taste filled her mouth, making her eyes narrow in happiness.
"Huh? Golden loser?"
Cornelia, having taken a sip of the drink, seemed to suddenly realize something, and scratched her little head with her delicate hand, instantly filled with an aura of wisdom.

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
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. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.

But later, his ex came crawling back in tears: "Yi, I was wrong. Please take me back." His childhood sweetheart became hopelessly devoted: "Yi, just one more glance from you is all I ask." The aloof campus belle blushed as she handed him a love letter: "Zhou Yi, I was blind before. Will you accept my feelings?" To all of them, Zhou Yi just smiled. "Sorry, too late. I’m done with love." Oh, and he also gained a system—every time he earned a woman’s affection, his looks improved and his bank account grew.
