Gulp.
Ah, is... is this something I can look at?
Gu Yan swallowed hard as he gazed at Leng Qingqiu, her head tilted back, hair naturally falling to either side.
Her lips were rosy, her breathing steady, her appearance as beautiful as a celestial maiden, causing Gu Yan to stare in a trance.
Since the study door wasn't locked, Gu Yan had walked in naturally.
Just as he was about to speak and startle Leng Qingqiu, she suddenly tilted her head back, making Gu Yan think he'd been discovered.
But as he continued looking, Gu Yan noticed something.
Leng Qingqiu's complexion was a bit pale, likely due to overworking herself in recent years and constantly being in a state of mental tension.
Although the original novel never described how Leng Qingqiu grew up,
Gu Yan could understand, if he put himself in her shoes, what kind of environment she had grown up in.
The Leng Family was massacred, with all responsibilities and hopes placed on Leng Qingqiu, this genius.
She had to search for her enemies while also preventing them from finding and eliminating her before she could fully develop.
Every day, she pushed herself to improve relentlessly.
How immense must her pressure be.
For some reason, Gu Yan felt a pang of sympathy.
Though they were about the same age, she already shouldered the heavy burdens of reviving her family and seeking vengeance.
Leng Qingqiu hadn't yet noticed Gu Yan's presence.
Her breathing hitched as she quickly sat up from the chair's backrest.
Leng Qingqiu rubbed her temples, muttering, "Tsk... I almost exceeded my rest time. That was close."
Just as she was about to continue reading the braille text,
She suddenly felt a comfortable sensation on both her shoulders.
It was a pair of large hands pressing on her shoulders, performing a massage with extraordinary skill!
"Who's there!"
Leng Qingqiu was startled. Had her enemies found her?!
Just as she was about to struggle to her feet, she heard a familiar voice.
"Don't be alarmed, Qingqiu. It's me, it's me, your dear husband Gu Yan."
Gu Yan explained while keeping his hands on Leng Qingqiu's shoulders.
Just moments ago, he had spent 10 Pure Love Points to purchase [God-tier Massage Technique].
As for why it was so cheap,
The system explained it this way — [Buying a massage technique for your pure love interest!! You've moved the system so much!! Here's a 0.0001 discount for you!!]
Hey! Isn't this system supposed to be stingy with points? Why are all the system novels I've read before so ruthless??
Gu Yan was beyond exasperated with this Pure Love System, but getting the skill at a discount was a good thing.
Dear... dear husband Gu Yan??
"Pah! Whoever's dear husband you are has nothing to do with me! Let go!"
"Don't disturb my reading!"
Leng Qingqiu's tense heart relaxed a bit when she realized it was Gu Yan.
At least it was just this fool.
Leng Qingqiu quickly understood why she hadn't heard Gu Yan open the door when he came in.
It must be because Ling'er didn't close the door properly when she left her study this morning.
She'd have to have a word with her when she got back!
"My darling Qingqiu, I don't like hearing you say that."
"Besides being your dear husband, who else could I be?"
"And I'm not disturbing you at all. I just noticed my darling Qingqiu's shoulders were too stiff, so I'm using my Qingqiu Baby's Exclusive Massage Technique to loosen up your muscles, that's all."
Gu Yan kept one thing in mind: he had to have thick skin!
Otherwise, how could he win over a beauty like Leng Qingqiu?
He had to start with small things and gradually penetrate Leng Qingqiu's heart!
Uh... wait, that's not right?
Gu Yan was stunned. How come, looking at it this way, he seemed like Leng Qingqiu's devoted admirer?
No, no, no, not a devoted admirer.
If he was going to admire anyone, it would be the biggest BOSS from the original novel. That would make him a wolf warrior, right?!
Hearing Gu Yan's pet names and comments, Leng Qingqiu's whole body bristled.
Qingqiu baby?? Exclusive massage technique??
Her heart fluttered with embarrassment and annoyance. She gritted her teeth, "You! You scoundrel, don't call me that!"
"Oh, then what would my Qingqiu baby like me to call her?"
Gu Yan said while continuing to massage Leng Qingqiu's shoulders, also changing the subject: "Qingqiu baby, the stiffness in your shoulders shows you've been sitting at your desk reading for too long."
"Maintaining one position while reading these braille books will take a toll on your body."
"So, you see, when I press this spot..."
Seeing Gu Yan trying to change the subject, Leng Qingqiu immediately retorted: "I told you not to call me Qing... eep!"
!!
Leng Qingqiu was stunned, and a blush spread across her face at an alarming rate.
She immediately covered her mouth with her hand.
Wh... what's going on?
What just happened?
How did I make that kind of sound?
Leng Qingqiu's chest rose and fell slightly. Only now did she realize that with Gu Yan's massage, her body, which had been cold from waking up early, was gradually warming up.
And her shoulders, which had been sore before, were now becoming comfortable.
Leng Qingqiu began to doubt herself. She glanced back slightly, knowing Gu Yan was standing there: "You... um... you really know how to massage?"
Leng Qingqiu's tone was incredulous. She didn't know what expression she had on her face or if there was anything unusual about it.
But Gu Yan's technique was truly making her feel like she was floating on clouds.
The God-tier Massage Technique was indeed powerful!
Gu Yan looked at Leng Qingqiu, whose cheeks were slightly flushed, though she was probably unaware of her current appearance.
So, Gu Yan discreetly lowered his head, and with a cheeky grin, he whispered into Leng Qingqiu's ear: "Yes, Qingqiu. Now do you believe me?"
"I learned this especially for you."
Leng Qingqiu's heart fluttered at the warmth of Gu Yan's breath. She quickly turned her head away and sat up straight, her tone forcefully composed: "You! Don't get so close to me!"
"Our relationship isn't at that level yet!"
Seeing this, Gu Yan smiled slightly and moved his hands away from Leng Qingqiu's shoulders as he continued massaging.
Feeling the pleasant sensation suddenly disappear, Leng Qingqiu instinctively said, "Why did you stop?"
But suddenly, Leng Qingqiu remembered that she was supposed to be using Gu Yan.
She shouldn't appear weaker than him.
So she let out a light snort and sat up straight again: "You finally understand our relationship. Now that you know, hurry up and go back."
However, in the next second,
Gu Yan reached out and pulled Leng Qingqiu's body back, leaning her against the chair's backrest.
Then, he chuckled and said, "Don't be in such a hurry, Qingqiu. After the shoulder massage comes the 'head therapy'. It's also a very comfortable technique to relax your mind."
As he spoke, he placed his hands on her temples and began massaging.
Leng Qingqiu pretended to struggle a bit: "Let go, I don't want your dirty hands touching me!"
Gu Yan saw through Leng Qingqiu's intentions, so he shook his head and massaged more vigorously: "No! I'm going to keep massaging!"
"You!"
Leng Qingqiu's tone faltered, as if unable to break free, she surrendered on the spot.
At the same time, she laughed coldly in her heart.
Hehe, Gu Yan, oh Gu Yan, I admit your massage... um... ahem, is a bit comfortable.
But you've miscalculated. I'm going to use you to massage me, then restore my mental state and physical condition.
Then I'll take over your Gu family in an even more perfect state! Hehe! This is all your doing!
Kekeke~~
As she thought about this, Leng Qingqiu gradually relaxed and began to fully enjoy Gu Yan's massage, a slight smile appearing on her lips.
[Massaging your pure love interest, +5 points]
[Skin contact with your pure love interest, +1 point]
[Making your pure love interest feel comfortable, +10 points]
Kekeke~~ So many points~~~
On Gu Yan's side, he couldn't help but smile as well.
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
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)

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."
