Night.
Gu Chenan returned to the manor.
After today's side story, Gu Chenan temporarily reached a conclusion.
That is, the rewards from the side quests were far inferior to those from the main storyline.
But having something is better than having nothing, so if there are any of these easy side quests in the future, he would take them if he could.
After all, he didn't do it for the rewards, but to stop Lin Yu from showing off.
The night was already deep, and the hallway was dark.
Gu Chenan went to the bathroom to wash up before going to bed.
However, at this time, Hoshino Kannon, wearing an oversized nightgown, quietly walked up behind Gu Chenan, who was washing his face.
Gu Chenan wet his face with water, reached for the facial cleanser, and looked up only to stumble in surprise.
Gu Chenan immediately turned around: "Damn, sis, what are you doing sneaking around like a ghost in the middle of the night, scaring people?"
Hoshino Kannon approached with a somewhat inexplicable expression and, without a word, hugged Gu Chenan's waist from behind.
Gu Chenan sensed something was amiss and frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"
Hoshino Kannon shook her head without speaking.
Gu Chenan was puzzled.
[What's going on with Hoshino Kannon in the middle of the night?]
[Oh? Has she finally given in to her desire to be with me?]
Just as Gu Chenan was thinking this, Hoshino Kannon suddenly spoke up.
"Will you... leave me?"
"Huh?"
Gu Chenan was taken aback and turned around: "What do you mean?"
Hoshino Kannon looked into Gu Chenan's eyes sincerely: "What I mean is... will you leave this place?"
"This place? Suhang?" Gu Chenan asked, not understanding: "Yeah, I'm from Donghai, so after dealing with the affairs in Suhang, I'll return to Donghai."
Upon hearing this, Hoshino Kannon wanted to ask something more, but just as she was about to open her mouth, she stopped.
Instead of the question she had intended to ask, she said: "No matter where you go in the future, take me with you... okay?"
"This..."
Gu Chenan was somewhat troubled.
He knew that after defeating Lin Yu, he would return to the real world.
So, everything in this novel world... was fake to him.
One could say that this world existed because of him.
If he left, this world would cease to exist.
After a moment, Gu Chenan nodded: "Okay, I promise you."
However, Gu Chenan knew that he was merely deceiving Hoshino Kannon.
In the real world, he shared the same name and appearance as the antagonist Gu Chenan in the novel.
The biggest difference between the two was perhaps their backgrounds.
In the novel, he was the young master of the Gu Family from Donghai.
In reality, he was just a small-town youth who had recently graduated from university.
He had no money, no power, and no background.
But he was determined to return to the real world.
There were two reasons for this.
First, if he wanted to stay in the novel world, he couldn't defeat Lin Yu or reach the ending, because then he would still be sent back to the real world.
But if he didn't deal with Lin Yu, Lin Yu would eventually defeat him, and he would be trapped in an endless loop.
Second, in this world, although he had parents, Gu Chenan's parents never returned to the country throughout the original storyline.
He had never met his parents in the novel world.
Meanwhile, in the real world, his parents might still be waiting for him to come back.
Based on these two points, he had to return to the real world.
Hoshino Kannon finally let go, her beautiful eyes filled with reluctance and longing.
"Okay, go to sleep." Gu Chenan patted Hoshino Kannon's head.
Hoshino Kannon suddenly pursed her lips, then opened her clothes to reveal her healed wound: "My injury has healed."
"Yeah." Gu Chenan nodded, still not understanding the meaning behind Hoshino Kannon's words.
Seeing Gu Chenan's lack of reaction, Hoshino Kannon's face reddened, and she swallowed: "Tonight... sleep with me..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chenan was taken aback.
[Wow, you used to say such things without blushing or feeling flustered, but now you're suddenly shy?]
[Could it be... that you were just talking before, but now you're serious?]
Thinking this, Gu Chenan nodded, then looked at Hoshino Kannon's legs.
"Okay, but before that, I hope you change into something else."
"Huh?" Hoshino Kannon was puzzled: "Change clothes, what clothes?"
"Ummm, the white lace over-the-knee socks you wore when you tried to seduce me." Gu Chenan said.
Hoshino Kannon smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay, whatever you say."
After that, Gu Chenan finished washing up, and he and the changed Hoshino Kannon returned to the room.
A night of passion was worth a thousand gold.
Gu Chenan's night with Hoshino Kannon was worth at least ten thousand gold!
...
The next morning, Gu Chenan woke up.
After a night of exertion, Gu Chenan had expected his legs to feel weak the next day.
However, he felt no discomfort at all.
In fact, he could go for another night without any issue.
This made Gu Chenan wonder if it was thanks to the ten attribute points he had invested in stamina.
It seemed that the attribute points in the mid-game were quite useful.
Gu Chenan sat up slightly and looked at the still-sleeping Hoshino Kannon by his side.
Her long eyelashes, perfect cheeks.
And her perfect figure, along with those incredibly alluring white lace over-the-knee socks.
[So cute, so small, so soft, so fragrant, damn it, let's go again!]
Thinking this, Gu Chenan slipped back under the covers.
At noon, the sun was high in the sky.
Gu Chenan pushed open the door and walked out.
Standing at the stairs in the hallway, he stretched his body.
"Damn, not a single trace of fatigue, awesome!"
Creak~
At that moment, Hoshino Kannon also came out, rubbing her eyes.
"Not going to sleep some more?" Gu Chenan asked.
Hoshino Kannon shook her head: "Going to take a shower, feeling sticky and uncomfortable."
Then she turned around and said: "You still owe me a date, so let's go today."
"Sure, no problem." Gu Chenan nodded.
...
By the way, will the storyline continue from here, or will it end with Gu Chenan taking control of Black Falcon, and then he'll return to the real world with the female leads?
Of course, there would be more storylines once he returns to the real world.
] [Lone Wolf, No Male Gaze] [Protagonist is pursued early on; extreme protagonist-stans, stay away!] The "Carnival Paradise" descends and slowly devours the real world in the form of a game. By chance, Zhu Yan awakens the talent [Roleplay], becoming one of the first beta players. He thought he could develop safely, but after clearing the first instance, he is branded by humanity as the chief culprit behind the game's spread—a traitorous villain. A villain? Who would ever... become one! He'll be the villain! From then on, Zhu Yan is not only a player but also a lackey for the Carnival Paradise. Between the straight path and the crooked path, he chooses the con. With his left hand, he dons the villain's mantle, staging scenes within instances, infuriating players who decry him as a despicable traitor, all while the game happily promotes him. With his right hand, he joins the non-human organization "Fangcun Mountain," which opposes the Carnival Paradise, transforming into a mysterious player who slaughters game bosses, earning cheers of "Long live the expert!" from fellow players. Gradually, Zhu Yan rises to become an S-rank human player in Fangcun Mountain's archives, while also being the Carnival Paradise's certified top game Boss. But when the final war erupts and both major factions place their hopes in him— Players tag his various aliases: "Experts, this offensive depends on you." The Carnival Paradise's supreme Boss throws an arm around his neck: "Bro, you're the iron, I'm the steel; you can't let me down again!"
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)
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
