The Gu Family Residence.
Fifth floor bedroom.
Gu Yan's parents were seriously peering out the window with binoculars.
When they spotted a black sedan speeding towards them from afar,
Gu Tianming finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his binoculars and tattled to his wife beside him: "Look at this, Murong."
"This rascal has been coming home later and later recently. Who knows where he's been fooling around."
Su Murong also lowered her binoculars. Hearing her husband's words, she turned to him with a kind expression: "Yan is Yan, and you are you."
"I still haven't settled accounts with you about your business with CEO Liu from Xinxin Technology today."
"Liu Shuqi's face was practically glued to yours!"
Su Murong reached out and pinched Gu Tianming's cheek, threatening: "Are you that close with CEO Liu? How come I didn't know you were acquainted with my good friend?"
Gu Tianming broke out in a cold sweat: "D-dear, you've got it all wrong! I was in the middle of negotiating a contract, how was I supposed to know she'd come so close? I swear I only love you!"
"Hmph, I don't care. I'm very unhappy. You're not sleeping in the bedroom tonight."
"What?"
...
Meanwhile, Gu Yan returned home humming a tune.
However, as soon as he entered, he saw his father sitting dejectedly on the first-floor sofa.
Gu Yan's mouth twitched, and he shook his head helplessly: "Dad, I told you not to make Mom angry. Look at you now, relegated to sleeping on the first floor?"
Hearing this, Gu Tianming looked embarrassedly at Gu Yan: "You brat! You have the nerve to lecture me? You've forgotten your family now that you have a girlfriend. Look what time it is!"
Gu Tianming figured if he couldn't handle Su Murong, he could at least deal with his son.
Gu Yan heard this and pouted: "For young people, the nightlife is just getting started at this hour. But I guess you're a bit past that, old man."
Upon hearing this,
Gu Tianming's mouth twisted in anger: "Are you calling me old?? You little... Hey! Don't you walk away!"
"Hehe, Dad, you'd better stay down here and reflect on your actions! I'm off to sleep in the big bed!"
Gu Yan laughed and dashed upstairs.
Watching Gu Yan slip away, Gu Tianming angrily sat back down on the sofa.
He grabbed a blanket and grumbled quietly: "That brat, he's really grown too big for his britches."
However, as he grumbled, Gu Tianming's expression softened.
How long has it been since we talked like this?
It must have been several years.
Gu Tianming pondered, lost in thought. His son really had grown up...
...
On Gu Yan's side, after washing up, he lay down on the big, soft bed he hadn't used in a while.
Recalling his interactions with Leng Qingqiu, he felt all the day's fatigue melt away.
Thinking of Leng Qingqiu's face, he couldn't help but smile.
Gu Yan hugged a pillow and wrestled with it playfully: "Qingqiu, Qingqiu, hahaha..."
He was overjoyed because he could sense that today's Qingqiu loved him more than ever before.
Hey, how did Gu Yan sense this?
Well, it was purely a man's sixth sense.
"Oh right, System, check my Pure Love Points."
Gu Yan called out to the system while lying in bed.
The next second.
Whir!
A panel appeared.
[Pure Love Points: 312]
Seeing this number, Gu Yan smiled even more broadly.
Excellent!
That should be enough to exchange for that item.
And calculating the time, Shen Wan'er should be coming to beg for his forgiveness soon.
Gu Yan opened the item interface.
Then he searched for an item worth 300 points.
[Cultivation Destruction Potion]
[Price: 300 points]
[Description: A deadly poison developed by the Ancient Assassination Family at great cost. Due to its extremely cruel nature, the family survived for only a few years before being destroyed by righteous individuals.]
[Effect: After the user consumes it, anyone who has intimate contact with them will lose all their cultivation!]
After reading the description and confirming there were no issues, Gu Yan chose to exchange for it.
The next second, a small purple bottle appeared in Gu Yan's hand.
He held it, and the label "Cultivation Destruction Potion" automatically appeared.
"Hehe, now I have the ultimate insurance."
Gu Yan's lips curled into a slight smirk, his eyes revealing a hint of playfulness.
Although the method was despicable, as long as it could deal with Xiao Lin, it was all worth it.
Indeed, this Cultivation Destruction Potion was colorless and odorless. The person who consumed it would be completely fine, but once someone had intimate contact with the user...
Then... the other person would have all their meridians shattered and lose all their cultivation!!
It could be called the most vicious assassination method!
Kekeke!!!
Gu Yan showed a wicked expression. According to the plot,
Xiao Lin should have met Shen Wan'er by now, and would likely be deeply attracted by her beauty and temperament.
But this was exactly what he wanted.
"I'm really looking forward to seeing your expression, Xiao Lin, as you fall from heaven to hell."
Gu Yan gave an evil laugh, then put away the Cultivation Destruction Potion.
Time to sleep! Tomorrow he'd hurry and improve his relationship with Wang Yulan! Then go cuddle with Qingqiu!
