"Have you finished reading?" Hoshino Kannon suddenly asked curiously, "What's the ending?"
"Why are you reading this too? Did Qianmo and Mingrui get you hooked on it?" Gu Chenan shook his head helplessly.
Good grief, all three female leads were now reading Peerless Dragon King.
"Well, I've got nothing better to do. It's interesting to see another version of ourselves," Hoshino Kannon poked Gu Chenan's abs with her finger. "Come on, tell me the ending."
Gu Chenan smirked, "What else could it be? Lin Yu is the protagonist after all."
"Yes, yes, I know that," Hoshino Kannon nodded. "So what's the ending?"
"Uh..."
Sometimes Gu Chenan couldn't tell if Hoshino Kannon was genuinely clueless or just pretending.
He shook his head helplessly and said, "That idiot Lin Yu married all of you."
"Eh?"
Hoshino Kannon was stunned. She instinctively wanted to make a sarcastic comment, but fell silent when the words reached her lips.
"What's wrong?" Gu Chenan asked, noticing her reaction.
"What about you?" Hoshino Kannon asked.
Gu Chenan spread his hands and said, "I was killed by that idiot earlier, probably around the middle..."
Before he could finish, Hoshino Kannon shook her head, "That's not what I'm asking."
"Then what..."
"I mean, would you? Or would you only marry Sister Mo?" Hoshino Kannon turned off her phone and looked intently at Gu Chenan.
Gu Chenan was stunned, his whole body trembling as if struck by lightning.
He had never considered this question before, and Hoshino Kannon's query made him reassess his relationship with all the female leads.
In this real world, it was impossible for Gu Chenan to have a group wedding like Lin Yu did in the novel and marry all the female leads.
But if he only married Su Qianmo, what about the others?
Ignore them? Impossible.
Let them find their own happiness? Not only would Gu Chenan be unable to watch the female leads drift away from him, but the female leads themselves would never agree to it.
So what should he do?
Gu Chenan sat up from his recliner, at a loss.
"What's wrong?" Hoshino Kannon also sat up, eagerly awaiting his answer.
Gu Chenan was speechless. While his heart wanted to give all the female leads proper recognition, this simply wouldn't work in the real world.
"It's nothing," Gu Chenan shook his head. "Of course I want to give all of you proper recognition."
"But it's impossible in the real world."
Hoshino Kannon suddenly became excited: "If it's not possible in the real world, why don't you take us back to the novel's world?"
"This..."
Gu Chenan hesitated for a moment, mentally asking the system if this was possible.
When Gu Chenan asked about this, the system replied in an almost mocking tone: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Gu Chenan's expression changed, and he pleaded pitifully, "Come on, sis, you were brought here by me. If it weren't for my choice, you would have ceased to exist when the novel's world closed. Can't you help me just this once?"
System: "..."
"Even though you say that, I don't have that function."
Gu Chenan was speechless.
He helplessly shook his head and looked back at Hoshino Kannon, "Let's not talk about this now. Let's go out and do something fun, staying at home all day is too boring."
Hoshino Kannon knew Gu Chenan was deliberately changing the subject, but she nodded anyway, "Alright, where to?"
Gu Chenan thought for a moment and said, "To the arcade, let's play some games."
"Yay!"
Ma Bing drove Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon towards the arcade.
On the second floor of the mansion, Liu Mingrui stood in her room watching the departing vehicle, frowning slightly.
"There he goes again with Kannon, without even telling me."
She sat down on the edge of her bed with a grudge, pouting, "Kannon's been here for several days now, and you've been running around with her every day. You never even ask if I want to go. How mean!"
"Ahhhhh! I'm so angry!"
"I won't cook for you tomorrow!"
Liu Mingrui punched her bed, sulking.
...
Three days passed in a flash.
Liu Mingrui had originally planned to express her dissatisfaction by not cooking for Gu Chenan.
But during these three days, Gu Chenan hadn't eaten at home at all, always going out with Hoshino Kannon during the day and returning only in the early hours of the morning.
Liu Mingrui was at her wit's end; there were times when she wanted to talk to Gu Chenan but couldn't even find him.
Finally, Liu Mingrui couldn't take it anymore. That evening, she sat alone on the sofa with her legs crossed, waiting for Gu Chenan to return home like a teacher ready to discipline a student.
Soon, headlights appeared outside the mansion, and Liu Mingrui immediately cleared her throat, crossed her arms, and sat up straight.
"Today's movie was really interesting, so good."
"It was okay, let's go watch another movie tomorrow."
Shortly after, Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon's voices could be heard outside the main hall.
Gu Chenan entered the main hall with his arm around Hoshino Kannon. The lights were off, so neither of them noticed Liu Mingrui on the sofa.
"Ahem." As the two were about to head upstairs while chatting and laughing, Liu Mingrui immediately coughed lightly.
Gu Chenan was startled and turned to see Liu Mingrui on the sofa.
"Mingrui, why are you sitting here in the dark so late?" Gu Chenan asked puzzled.
Liu Mingrui turned her head away, raising her chin, "Oh, so you remember to come back?"
Sensing trouble, Hoshino Kannon pouted and quietly slipped away.
It wasn't that she was afraid of Liu Mingrui, but she felt guilty about previously kidnapping her and couldn't face the currently imposing Liu Mingrui.
"Hey, you!"
Seeing Hoshino Kannon slip away, Gu Chenan awkwardly approached the sofa.
"Mingrui, Kannon just arrived, so I'm just spending some time with her."
Liu Mingrui pressed her lips together and said angrily, "What about me? As soon as I arrived, you had me shoot that stupid commercial that made me known throughout the city. Now that the controversy has finally died down, you're completely ignoring me?"
"If you don't want me around, just send me back!"
Liu Mingrui maintained a stern face, but her eyes were becoming slightly red.
"Mingrui, how can you say that? How could I not want you around..."
Just as Gu Chenan was about to explain, Liu Mingrui turned to face him and said, "Today is already the ninth day since Kannon arrived. Tomorrow, who knows who else will come, and you'll surely want to spend time with them too. What about me? When will you spend time with me?"
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
