I underestimated you, the other me

In the study.

The moment their lips touched, Leng Qingqiu's mind went blank.

Is this what a kiss feels like? Gu Yan...

Hmm... The sensation is intensifying. Is this Gu Yan's ability?

Amazing, so amazing, so comfortable. I want more.

The beauty of enhanced strength and the exhilaration of every cell in her body made Leng Qingqiu gradually lose herself.

Gu Yan, this is all your fault. If you hadn't said so much, I wouldn't have been so impulsive.

If it weren't for my fear of putting you in danger, I wouldn't have wanted to become stronger.

If I didn't want to become stronger, I wouldn't have done this. So it's all your responsibility, and you must take responsibility for me.

Come to think of it, there seem to be many women connected to you...

Leng Qingqiu intertwined her fingers with Gu Yan's, firmly pinning him to the ground as she exerted more force.

Shen Wan'er, get lost. Wang Yulan, get lost. Yan Qingqing, get lost too.

All of this is mine. Gu Yan is mine. No one can take him away.

Leng Qingqiu greedily absorbed everything, completely forgetting her primary purpose of using Gu Yan to become stronger. At this moment, the overwhelming happiness filled her mind, and she only wanted to savor this feeling that brought her immense pleasure.

On Gu Yan's side, because Leng Qingqiu's kiss was too intense, he couldn't even check the numerous system notifications, and even though something seemed to have appeared in his mind, he didn't have time to think about it.

He felt his brain was running out of oxygen and wanted to push Leng Qingqiu away, but... he found that he couldn't.

Until he fainted, all he could think was...

Wait... Why did I become so weak and powerless in front of Leng Qingqiu?! System, you bastard, come out and explain this to me!!

Am I not supposed to be a natural-born talent??

......

.......

[He's already fainted, you can stop now.]

[He's a good furnace, we need to keep him alive until we drain him dry.]

The voice in her mind was cold and emotionless.

Leng Qingqiu gradually came out of her trance, taking deep breaths of fresh air.

She looked nervously at Gu Yan, who was unconscious beneath her, and quickly reached out to check his breathing: "Gu Yan? Gu Yan?"

Seeing that he still had breath and faint reactions, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then.

Leng Qingqiu gently touched her lips, feeling the warmth on them, and her expression gradually softened.

Is this what a kiss feels like? Was I happy because of the kiss with Gu Yan, or because of the increase in strength?

Maybe it's both?

Now my perception has become stronger. If this continues every day, I believe I won't need long to find out the conditions for restoring my sight.

At that moment, the voice in her mind reappeared.

[I didn't expect you to be so decisive. I underestimated you, the other me. You really haven't changed.]

[Are you so happy because you feel the increase in your strength?]

Hearing this, Leng Qingqiu slowly retracted her smile. She naturally wouldn't let the little Leng in her mind know her true feelings, so she said proudly, "Hmph, just an ordinary man. He will only ever be destined to be my furnace. Everything I did before was just an act to capture his heart."

"Little Leng, you still have a lot to learn from me in this regard."

[...I advise you not to be so complacent. This man feels extraordinary to me. He might have some special intentions towards you.]

[Perhaps he is one of those who coveted 'Night' back then.]

Leng Qingqiu immediately denied this, "Impossible. Gu Yan doesn't know about [Night]. How could he have come to me for that reason?"

"Don't worry, little Leng. It's definitely not what you're thinking."

[....]

[If necessary, I will take control of the body.]

No way, you wish!

Leng Qingqiu panicked. Little Leng was her other personality, born when she witnessed the massacre of her entire clan.

After using [Night] to slash her eyes, she could communicate with Little Leng.

Little Leng's personality was cold and ruthless.

It was something even she feared, so she had always kept it locked inside, not letting it out.

Because Little Leng would do anything for revenge, even things without any moral bottom line.

If Little Leng took control of her body, Leng Qingqiu couldn't imagine what it would do to Gu Yan.

After all, in Little Leng's eyes, Gu Yan was a perfect, top-quality furnace. It might drain him completely.

In any case.

“As the Night King, I am the one who strategizes. Little Leng, just stay inside and watch me succeed in my revenge.”

Leng Qingqiu wouldn't let Little Leng out. However, she also had to be careful.

This time, Little Leng's appearance also signified that her original beliefs had been shaken because of Gu Yan's arrival.

But that's okay.

Leng Qingqiu looked at Gu Yan and gently pursed her lips.

Now that she had done such things with Gu Yan, she had come to recognize her feelings for him.

In the future, she wouldn't be so hesitant and indecisive. Maybe this is a good thing.

Thinking this, Leng Qingqiu stood up and dragged Gu Yan towards the sofa.

....

....

A ray of afternoon sunlight fell on Gu Yan's face, and he opened his eyes in confusion.

What happened? Why did I faint?

Oh, right, it seems I fainted because of Qingqiu's intense kiss. I didn't expect Qingqiu to be so bold.

But, does this prove that Qingqiu has acknowledged her feelings for me?

Otherwise, why would she kiss me?

By the way... why do I feel the surroundings are so fragrant, and the back of my head feels so soft?

Gu Yan gradually regained his senses.

The next second.

"You're awake?"

Leng Qingqiu's calm voice entered Gu Yan's ears.

He looked up and realized his situation.

His head was actually resting on Leng Qingqiu's lap.

And she was looking down, her hand gently exploring his features.

Gu Yan: !!

Is this the Qingqiu I know?

Leng Qingqiu seemed to sense Gu Yan's shock, so she withdrew her hand and awkwardly played with her hair: "Don't misunderstand. This is just a compensation for what I did to you earlier."

"Suddenly kissing you like that, you must have a hard time accepting it, right..."

To be honest, Leng Qingqiu had made enough mental preparations to say these words. After all, she really didn't want to bring up this extremely embarrassing incident.

Gu Yan swallowed, then said, "It's indeed a bit hard to accept."

Leng Qingqiu's eyelashes fluttered, and her hand playing with her hair paused: "Oh..."

But the next moment, Gu Yan added, "So this compensation isn't enough. Qingqiu, please allow me to change my posture and lie here a little longer!"

As he spoke, he turned over and buried his face in Leng Qingqiu's lap.

"Sigh! Sigh! Qingqiu! My Qingqiu! You must really love me, sigh! I'm nibbling, nibbling, nibbling... Ugh!!"

Before Gu Yan could do anything else, he was kicked to the ground by the furious Leng Qingqiu.

Then, she followed up with a kick that landed directly on Gu Yan's chest: "Pervert!"

Leng Qingqiu's face was red with anger as she shouted.

I was still feeling shy about the earlier incident, thinking about how to make you accept my sudden kiss.

But you? You actually enjoyed it??

"Is it because perverts have a different way of thinking than normal people?"

Leng Qingqiu coldly scolded as she twisted her ankle, making her jade-like foot ruthlessly trample Gu Yan's chest.

"Ahhh! Qingqiu! I'm so uncomfortable!"

Gu Yan twisted and crawled on the ground, screaming.

"Hmph!"

Hearing this, Leng Qingqiu felt a bit heartbroken and withdrew her foot.

Gu Yan's expression showed some regret. Tsk, why did she take it back? That way, I couldn't take the opportunity to earn some points.

But Gu Yan knew this wasn't the time for such things, so he got up from the ground and stared straight at Leng Qingqiu.

He took a deep breath and asked seriously, "So Qingqiu, why did you suddenly kiss me?"

"Is it because you love me so much that you can't live without me??"

Upon hearing this, Leng Qingqiu felt a bit flustered inside, but on the surface, she vehemently denied it, shaking her head and pretending to remain calm. "N-n-n-no... that's not what you're saying."

"Then what is it like? By the way, Qingqiu, why are you stuttering? What's going on?"

"I don't know! Just go away!"

"No way! Even if I have to leave, I need to know how you really feel about me, Qingqiu!!"

Gu Yan wouldn't accept such a vague answer from her.

Even the plans they had for later couldn't compare to getting a clear response from Leng Qingqiu right now!

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
