Leng Qingqiu noticed that she had been looking for a long time without hearing Gu Yan's annoying voice, which made her wonder.
Had he left?
Thinking this, she softly called out, "Gu Yan?"
On Gu Yan's side, he was about to respond, but his eyes darted as a mischievous smile crept onto his face, as if he'd thought of something fun.
He held his breath, deliberately staying silent as he slowly stood up and backed away.
Leng Qingqiu, receiving no reply, assumed Gu Yan had left.
She felt a strange sensation in her heart.
"This guy, how could he leave without saying a word?"
Leng Qingqiu shook her head, perhaps unaccustomed to the sudden silence in the room that had been noisy before.
Before Gu Yan came, she had always been in this environment.
Darkness, pitch-black darkness, and silence.
In this study, Leng Qingqiu could only hear the sound of her own breathing.
Every day, all she did was constantly improve, improve, and improve again.
She had to keep enhancing herself to find the culprit behind everything and avenge her family!
Of course, even while staying in the study day and night,
She never forgot the time.
After all, her computer-like brain could perfectly calculate every minute and second of the current time.
Tsk....
"Why am I suddenly thinking so much?"
Leng Qingqiu chuckled self-mockingly. In the past, she would never have thought this much.
But today, when Gu Yan came and talked about marrying her, buzzing in her ear for a while,
She felt like something had been added to her life.
It was as if her daily schedule of [absorb knowledge, absorb knowledge, absorb knowledge] had forcibly added [wifey baby, learn knowledge, wifey baby].
Pah! Why was she thinking about this so much!
Leng Qingqiu's face reddened slightly, her mind inexplicably recalling the pet names Gu Yan had used earlier.
"Whew, no, no, I need to calm down."
Leng Qingqiu felt she really couldn't handle such mushy words, wondering how Gu Yan could say them so easily.
Thinking this, she stood up and walked directly towards a certain direction.
It was a bookshelf, filled with her books.
Having stayed here for many years, she knew exactly where everything was, which book was in which position.
However, as luck would have it,
Gu Yan was blocking the bookshelf she was heading towards.
?
Why is Qingqiu walking towards me?
And what was she thinking about so intently over there?
Gu Yan covered his mouth, unsure of what to do as Leng Qingqiu gradually approached.
Especially since,
Leng Qingqiu had her eyes closed, walking towards him with a cool and elegant face.
It was really... really...
Who could resist this?!
Gu Yan swallowed hard. No, no, he couldn't do anything stupid at this crucial moment of improving their relationship.
So...
He glanced at the large door nearby.
Since Leng Qingqiu thought he had left, he should quietly slip away.
Judging by Leng Qingqiu's movements, she was probably going for a book behind his current position, so he just needed to move to the side a bit.
Thinking this, Gu Yan gently shifted his body.
On Leng Qingqiu's side, she walked towards the bookshelf following her usual route.
However, she had once again overlooked something.
That was...
Because Gu Yan had come, he had moved a chair to sit not far away.
Leng Qingqiu walked without any guard.
The next second.
Thud!
"Ah!"
Leng Qingqiu felt something trip her, and she instinctively cried out as her body tilted forward.
Unable to see, her heart was filled with panic.
If she fell, then maybe...
Maybe she'd lose her pure love interest!
Gu Yan, who was about to sneak away, was startled. He quickly rushed over: "Qingqiu!"
With a loud thump!
The two fell to the ground.
Leng Qingqiu fell into Gu Yan's arms.
"Ouch!"
Gu Yan was about to cry out pathetically.
[Saved pure love interest from falling, +10 points]
"Eh! Haha!"
But following the prompt in his mind, he suddenly laughed out loud.
Leng Qingqiu, who had braced herself for pain, was stunned.
She... had been saved?
This laughter...
"Gu Yan?"
Leng Qingqiu asked hesitantly.
But wait, hadn't Gu Yan left? He didn't respond earlier.
Could it be...
Leng Qingqiu seemed to realize something. Combining that with the laughter, she slightly raised her head, looking at Gu Yan expressionlessly: "You deliberately didn't speak, just to see me fall?"
This... jerk!!
Leng Qingqiu felt annoyed thinking about this. What love-struck fool?
This person deliberately wanted to see her embarrassed?!
Alright, alright! So this is how you want to play it!
Hiss!
"I've been wronged, Qingqiu! Didn't you say not to let me speak? So I didn't dare say anything!"
Gu Yan certainly wouldn't admit to this, and he really hadn't intentionally wanted to see her fall. That was purely accidental!
"You! You know very well what your intentions were!"
Leng Qingqiu didn't want to hear Gu Yan's lame excuses. She immediately struggled to get up from Gu Yan's body: "Let go of me! You jerk!"
"Eh, cough cough cough!! Qingqiu, you're making me uncomfortable like this!"
"Shut up! You just wanted to see me embarrassed! Who cares if you're uncomfortable!"
"But-"
"Shut up!"
She used her hands to push against Gu Yan's chest, trying to stand up, but didn't realize that her frantic movements had led to a rather awkward position between her and Gu Yan.
Just then.
Click!
Leng Ling'er, with her dyed yellow hair, anxiously burst in: "Sis! I heard a loud noise, did that pervert Gu Yan do anything to... you..."
But as she spoke, she found herself at a loss for words.
Because the intimate scene before her eyes left her completely stunned.
She saw her beloved elder sister, who was always so intellectual in front of her,
Now... with her hands pressed against Gu Yan's chest, and a very pained expression.
"Is that Ling'er? Come help me."
Leng Qingqiu heard her sister's voice and spoke up.
"Help... do you... still need my help?! Big sis, wuwuwu!! How could you do such a thing with this kind of man after meeting him for just half a day, waaaaaah!!"
Leng Ling'er burst into tears on the spot.
?
Gu Yan slowly raised a question mark, and Leng Qingqiu also slowly raised a question mark.
.......
.......
In the room.
The two sisters, Leng Qingqiu and Leng Ling'er, sat on the bed.
Gu Yan sat on a chair opposite them.
The three had a face-to-face talk!
"So, to prevent this kind of thing from happening again in the future!"
"You!! Are not allowed to be alone with my big sister anymore!"
The misunderstanding was cleared up.
Leng Qingqiu remained silent on the side. She seemed to understand what kind of misunderstanding her actions with Gu Yan in the dark had caused for others.
So now she could only express her embarrassed inner thoughts through silence.
Damn it! How could this happen! And in front of my sister! Damn it! All my dignity is gone!
Gu Yan looked at his yellow-haired sister-in-law with slightly red eyes from crying, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, okay, I promise you everything."
Hehe, that's what I'm saying, but anyway, little sister-in-law will go to school later, so won't I be able to get close to Qingqiu whenever I want?!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!
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.
