"Mm-hmm, I'll stay here tonight. Lao Gao, you can go back now."
"That's settled."
After hanging up Lao Gao's call.
Gu Yan put down his phone and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
This was the bedroom where he had stayed overnight before.
Although he really wanted to spend some intimate time with Leng Qingqiu, who had just come out of the bath, it was, unfortunately, not to be.
She had coldly retreated to the study and even locked the door.
Gu Yan thought to himself, "The kid's growing up, huh? Even knows to avoid suspicion now."
Look at that, even her good husband isn't allowed in.
Although it was a pity, Gu Yan felt that today had been incredibly fulfilling.
He had discovered Leng Qingqiu's true thoughts, even if it was through the system.
That was enough. After all, as the future biggest behind-the-scenes villain boss, having some personality was only natural, right?
Who would have thought that his initial goal was merely to avoid the death plot by approaching Leng Qingqiu, the ultimate big villain?
But unexpectedly, he had genuinely fallen for Leng Qingqiu. After all, she was just too much his type.
Leng Ling'er, despite being a little brat, had become much more likable after getting to know her.
Though she still occasionally left him speechless and raised his blood pressure.
"System, check the panel."
Gu Yan silently thought.
The next second.
The familiar panel appeared, and Gu Yan checked the Pure Love Points he had earned today.
【Pure Love Points: 230,000】
Thanks to a significant boost in favorability with Leng Qingqiu, the points had skyrocketed.
Plus, his cultivation technique had advanced, so Pure Love Points could now be exchanged for items in the mall or used actively to produce some peculiar effects.
As for what Pure Love Points could do, Gu Yan only had a vague understanding, having only tested a portion of its capabilities.
Although he was tempted to spend the points to enhance his cultivation, he thought better of it.
His innate cultivation was already sufficient for the current situation. After all, as the young master of the Gu Family, he had countless underlings.
He rarely had to act personally, so there was no need to raise his strength too much.
The Pure Love Points should be used elsewhere. In case of any unexpected events, these points could prove invaluable.
Counting the time, the annual meeting was approaching. He had to hurry...
Gu Yan closed the panel and picked up his phone to scroll through short videos.
As he scrolled, a familiar melody suddenly played.
【I never thought I'd go crazy for you...】
【With mountains crumbling and seas roaring, without you, I don't want to escape...】
Huh?
Gu Yan was taken aback. Wasn't that me?
Taking a closer look, wasn't this the banquet venue?
And why was it so close to the stage?
He checked the number of likes. Despite only being posted a few days ago, it already had 2 million likes and 500,000 comments.
He clicked in to take a look.
"Fell in love! Is this first-person perspective?"
"This banquet looks so high-end! By the way, who is the handsome guy playing the piano and singing?"
"I don't know. Is he a celebrity?"
"You don't know? I'm from Jianghai City. This is a banquet hosted by a big boss in Jianghai City. Everyone here is a big shot. The singer is a top rich young master, singing for his wife."
"Shocked! So even the rich like to sing and dance?"
"What did you expect? There's a city tycoon in the neighboring city whose dream is to be a pop star. He accidentally became the city tycoon and even invited a bunch of celebrities to sing with him."
Wait, this first-person perspective looks awfully familiar.
Gu Yan checked the blogger's avatar. It was a little yellow-haired guy wearing a black mask, with a disdainful look in his eyes, and a sparkling manicured finger giving the camera the middle finger.
Uh... wasn't that Leng Ling'er?
Gu Yan's mouth twitched. He clicked into the homepage.
The blogger's name was 【Cold Arrogant】. Gu Yan followed and randomly clicked on a video to check.
The video started with a cool, cocky tune, followed by Leng Ling'er and a group of people dressed in flashy clothes standing in the frame.
Everyone had their hands in their pockets. Leng Ling'er stood in the center, looking up, wearing a mask, and speaking in a disdainful tone————
"Little leather shoes, JK outfit, I'm Cold Arrogant, remember that!"
"Don't tell me I'm young and wild, I only know the winner takes all!"
"I'm a wild horse with no return, but you little people, I must eliminate!"
After that, Leng Ling'er pointed her finger at the camera and said fiercely, "You better remember, okay!"
Then came a round of "social dancing."
What kind of "spirit girl" is this? Do you know what would happen if your sister found out?
Gu Yan's mouth twitched as he watched, then clicked on the comments section, filled with mocking remarks about Leng Ling'er.
There were even netizens who had come to "archaeology" after seeing her latest banquet video.
"What? The spirit girl is actually a rich young lady?"
"Six six six, everyone says the rich are psychopaths. Now it seems, it's true."
"Spirit girl with tattoos, applause for the social person."
Such comments abounded, and Gu Yan quickly found the author herself engaging in fierce arguments with the netizens.
"Pfft! Who's a spirit girl! You don't know anything! This is the trend, understand?!"
“Oh? Poor uncle who’s 30 and still single, what a pitiful little fish❤~~”
"Teapot mouth, please stay away, who gets it!"
"You're such a downer, you XXXXXX!!"
"Bitch, you're just jealous of me. Look at your tank-like waist! Even Zheng Tu would say, 'Sis, you've got a great foundation!'"
"Auntie, what's corrupting the kids? It's clearly because you parents aren't doing your jobs!"
"Report? I report you XXXX!"
Gu Yan covered his face as he watched the fierce argument unfold, with several messages being posted every second.
Wait a minute...
This little brat's got quite a complex personality, huh? Attacking everyone, regardless of age or gender?
You're pretty bold, but do you know you're going to get banned soon?
Sure enough, within a few seconds.
Leng Ling'er's avatar turned into a gray pattern, and a message popped up on the homepage————
【The user you followed has been banned from posting, duration: 30 days】
"Ahhhh————"
A shocked and frustrated scream came from the other room.
Gu Yan smiled helplessly, put down his phone, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
This little brat... I hope you pray your sister doesn't find out.
.....
....
Leng Ling'er angrily closed the short video app.
She lay on the bed, kicking her legs against the mattress: "Ahhhh!! I'm so mad!!"
Her pretty little face was filled with unrelenting resentment.
Damn it, damn it! So infuriating! Get lost, you little blackies!
Why doesn't anyone appreciate my art??
Leng Ling'er was completely speechless at the thought. Why didn't anyone watch her carefully crafted videos?
Yet, her casual video of Gu Yan singing suddenly went viral?
Most infuriatingly, those netizens even dug up her previous carefully made videos to mock her as a spirit girl??
Damn it!
I'm so mad! And now I'm banned!
Leng Ling'er's resentment had no outlet. She took a deep breath: "If that's the case..."
She quickly got up from the bed, ran to the door, and made sure it was locked.
Then... she walked to the bed, bent down, and fished out a box from under the bed.
She looked at the box with excitement, licked her lips, and carefully opened it.
Inside, quietly lying there, was a novel with a cover that clearly screamed "18+."
This was a romance novel Bai Qionglan had lent her to read a long time ago.
It could be said that this novel had opened another door for her.
But she had found it uninteresting at the time and had hidden it under the bed.
Now...
Leng Ling'er picked up the novel, on the cover of which was written.
【Am I weird for liking XXXXXX? XXXXXX】
Leng Ling'er hugged the book to her chest and closed her eyes.
Although it was a bit unfair to her sister, this kind of fantasy made her feel incredibly stimulated and excited.
So she hoped that her sister and that useless Gu Yan would stay loving and affectionate forever.
That's right!!
If not for me, Leng Ling'er, the world of cow would be eternal as the night!
Leng Ling'er opened her eyes, held the book, and her cheeks flushed.
Tonight! The cow is here!
However, just as Leng Ling'er was about to tear open the tissue.
Knock knock~~
"Ling'er, what's wrong? Why aren't you sleeping so late?"
Leng Qingqiu knocked on the door, her voice filled with concern.
Leng Ling'er shuddered: !!!
