Poison
"I... I need to go back to practice the piano!"
Before Mu An could explain much, Mu Yuer covered her flushed face and ran back to her room.
She didn't forget to 'drop' a whole lot of emotional rewards!
'I haven't even made a move, and this little girl has 'self-exploded' a gold mine?'
Mu An shook his head.
Then he shamelessly collected the gold coins that had burst out from the girl!
What's there to be embarrassed about when picking up rewards based on skill?
Now that the two gold mines at home have already 'paid rent', adhering to the principle of equality, Mu An naturally wouldn't let go of the last gold mine.
He thought for a moment, grabbed some snacks and drinks, and turned to enter Su Zhirou's room.
Due to the upcoming exam week, this little girl was diligently reviewing multiple professional books.
She didn't even notice when Mu An entered her room.
"Studying hard is good, but you also need to know how to balance work and rest."
"So, why don't you have a snack and take a break?"
Hearing that familiar voice, Su Zhirou was slightly startled.
She turned her head and met the man's incredibly gentle gaze, and her previously tense body relaxed.
"Young Master?"
Mu An unceremoniously reached out to pat the girl's head.
Since she was his exclusive gold mine, why should he be polite?
'Everything is for the sake of collecting emotional rewards!'
"I heard from Ning'er that you are studying quite hard, so I brought you some snacks and your favorite drink."
"By the way, I came to check on your specific study situation!"
Mu An expressed his concern at the right moment.
Su Zhirou looked at the large bag of snacks and felt very touched.
She realized how blind she had been in the past, why did she keep rejecting such a good man?
She wished she could go back in time and give her past self a good slap!
[From Su Zhirou's regret emotional fluctuation +13, congratulations, you have received the reward [Natural Brand: One Hundred Super Delicious Snack Gift Pack]!]
[From Su Zhirou's joy emotional fluctuation +16, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +5200]!]
[From Su Zhirou's moved emotional fluctuation +20, congratulations, you have received the reward [Plot Fragment *1]!]
…..
After leaving the girl's room, Mu An smiled.
Sometimes, gentleness is a kind of poison that makes people unable to help but indulge in it, hard to extricate themselves!
And he was becoming the 'poison' that dominated the girl's emotional fluctuations!
[Use all [Plot Fragments]!]
——————
[Plot Fragment *1] used successfully! This is a plot fragment about Bai Zihao!"
[After a week of exams, the broke Bai Zihao starts a stall at the amusement park!]
[In order to gain enough repeat customers and high profits, he crazily adds addictive substances like poppy to the food!]
[As expected, his stall stands out among many sellers, earning a lot of money!]
[Moreover, no one has discovered what he is doing!]
[He even helped a puppet staff member, coincidentally, this staff member is a female lead!]
[Bai Zihao successfully gained the favor of this female lead!]
[Note: This female lead is also one of your temporarily designated fiancées!]
——————
[You have successfully used [Plot Fragment *1]! This is about the arranged plot of the main character Long Haotian!]
[Because you beat up Long Haotian in the bar, he has been brooding over it!]
[At this time, he lost the memory of your realm and his own realm improvement!]
[Therefore, he thinks it must be his carelessness that allowed you to take advantage!]
[Long Haotian decides to send a red-clothed assassin tonight to take your head!]
[To take revenge for the inexplicably lost kidney, all his hair, and the lost power and realm!]
——————
Mu An looked at these two plot fragments thoughtfully.
Since there was still some time before the exams ended, Bai Zihao's matter could be temporarily set aside.
What was most urgent now was to seriously think about how to welcome the assassin female lead who would come knocking again tonight!
So, what props should he use to greet her?
For example, double the dosage? Double the bricks? Or double the illusion?
This is indeed a question that needs serious consideration!
But no matter what method is used, in the end, it's all to make the other party give him a big explosion of gold coins (emotional rewards)!
…..
The night was deep.
The clouds were heavy, obscuring the moonlight.
The Mu family manor looked like a crouching beast, waiting for its prey to come to the hook!
A nimble black shadow flashed silently, successfully avoiding all lines of sight.
Perhaps due to previous experience.
This time, she was clearly more skilled!
The familiar balcony, the familiar floor-to-ceiling window, and that familiar guy inside...
Hong Yi took a deep breath, her gaze slightly focused.
Last time, she didn't know why she failed.
This time, her strength had improved significantly!
She didn't believe she could fall for the same trick a second time!
Of course, she didn't act impulsively; she maintained the habits of a killer, cautiously entering Mu An's room.
Her light and delicate feet moved gracefully like a cat, stepping on the soft and comfortable carpet without making a sound.
Hoo~ Hoo~
In the darkness, the boy lying on the bed emitted faint breathing sounds.
Long and rhythmic!
The barely audible heartbeat showed no sudden changes.
Clearly, he was in deep sleep!
Even so, Hong Yi didn't dare to let her guard down.
She quietly circulated her strength around her body, always ready to fend off any potential crisis.
Unlike last time when she had to sneak around looking for something.
This time, her goal was to take down this guy who opposed Lord Long Wang.
Thinking this way, the time wasted wouldn't be long, and she wouldn't fall for any tricks again!
As she approached, Hong Yi looked at the man on the bed with a complex expression.
Then her gaze gradually became resolute, and the dagger in her hand fell heavily!
'Sorry, I had no choice!'
'Hope you don't oppose Lord Long Wang in your next life!'
But suddenly.
Hong Yi's expression changed drastically, the crimson clouds of embarrassment had unknowingly crept up her cheeks.
Her delicate body couldn't help but tremble, and a surging, nameless feeling continuously impacted her heart.
The dagger in her hand slipped away just like last time.
The feeling of helplessness was gradually breaking down the deepest defenses in her heart!
Oh no!
This familiar feeling again!
She couldn't fail again!
Thinking this, Hong Yi bit her tongue fiercely, regaining a bit of clarity.
She completely disregarded her current complex psychological state and lunged at Mu An with all her might!
She didn't believe it!
Such a simple task, with her mastery of strength, she couldn't possibly fail!
.....
The night was still very deep.
So deep it chilled the heart.
Hong Yi fell silent.
Just like last time, she limped away from the Mu family manor.
Clearly, her injuries were not light!
She couldn't understand.
Why, despite her strength having reached the rare realm of transformation in the world.
Did she still fall to a mere rich second generation?
What was worse, she didn't even know how she had failed!
[You have become increasingly skilled at using props, successfully repelling the invading enemy again, Hong Yi's emotional fluctuation +50, congratulations, you have received the reward [Original Grass Woven Green Hat from a Certain Prairie *1]!]
[Your extremely high and bizarre combat power makes people question life, Hong Yi doubts her own strength is real, emotional fluctuation +50, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +20 Years]!]
——————
[Original Grass Woven Green Hat from a Certain Prairie *1]: Can be used by others, once worn, it will cause the wearer to grow thick hair on their head!
However, all this hair is green, and the hairstyle is fixed into a pot cover middle part watermelon head!
When walking, it automatically glows green and can focus the attention of the entire crowd, with a chance to trigger a self-praising quote!
——————
In the darkness, a pair of bright eyes that could see through everything opened.
The corners of the man's mouth curled up slightly.
One could only say that the protagonist Long Wang indeed sent him a very nice 'gift'!
In return, this green hat was obviously just right for the now bald Long Haotian!
.....
On a certain street filled with lights and wine.
Bai Zihao leaned against the wall, also limping out.
His eyes were filled with resentment and hatred.
If it weren't for the sudden interference from the Mu An family's Tianmu Group, which directly ruined his established cooperation plan with Su Dazhi.
How could he have fallen to this point?
If everything had gone according to plan, he would have definitely made a fortune through the herbal medicine trade and beauty formula!
But now, all of that was gone.
He even had to come to such a place to do hard daily work.
Just to earn enough money to pay for the house he had previously contracted!
And the only good news was that a house in the demolition area had finally fallen into his hands.
Once the demolition plan was implemented, he would be able to earn a large sum of money steadily!
"Little brother, come play often, next time we'll order you to play board games with us!"
A man's voice sounded from behind.
Bai Zihao's face darkened even more, and he quickened his pace to leave.
With so many black intermediaries around, if he came back next time, he would be a dog!
.....
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The university's major course exams arrived as scheduled.
"Have you reviewed well?"
Mu An held the little girl's hand, skillfully playing with her soft and fragrant little hand.
This feigned 'intimacy' allowed him to occasionally pick up various emotional rewards from the girl!
"Mm!"
Chu Youmeng blushed and nodded her little head.
Although she had initially gotten used to the man's behavior, she still couldn't help but blush.
Especially when there were many people around, and their gazes were on the two of them, she became even more nervous!
Her palms were covered in a thin layer of warm sweat!
"Do you remember the bet we made?"
"If you win in the major scores, I will unconditionally agree to one of your reasonable requests!"
"If I win, then you have to be my..."
Mu An whispered a few words next to the delicate earlobe of the girl.
Chu Youmeng's little head was about to crash on the spot.
Her pretty face turned bright red, like a drop of blood.
She didn't dare to raise her head to meet Mu An's bright eyes that were fixed on her.
She stammered for a long time without being able to say a complete sentence.
If this were in an anime, steam would probably be rising from the girl's head by now.
And bubbles of messages would keep popping up, such as:
Shy 1+1+1...
Bashful 1+1+1...
Embarrassed 1+1+1...
[Shyness emotion fluctuation from Chu Youmeng +13, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +5200]!]
[Shyness emotion fluctuation from Chu Youmeng +14, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +5200]!]
[Embarrassment emotion fluctuation from Chu Youmeng +15, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +5200]!]
…..
Not far away, watching the lovey-dovey Mu An and the girl, Bai Zihao was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
As the saying goes, a slow step, is a step slow!
If he had acted sooner on this treasure of a girl, Chu Youmeng, then there would definitely be no business for that useless rich second generation Mu An now!
But unfortunately, in reality, there are no "what ifs," only results!
Damn it!
So, infuriating!
He also wanted a soft and fragrant woman!
Hiss~~~
Just a slight movement or too much action, and Bai Zihao could feel a sharp pain in his wound.
"The exam preparation is about to begin, please return to your seats!"
The professional exam was about to start.
After receiving the test paper, Bai Zihao inexplicably became confident again.
It seemed that he had gained nothing after his rebirth, but he still possessed a hidden talent.
That is, an eidetic memory!
So, those questions that were extremely difficult in his eyes back then, after he had thoroughly studied the professional books word by word, had all turned into super easy things!
Just wait for him!
This time, he would definitely make a stunning impression!
And he would unceremoniously accept the scholarship for this semester!
Every time he imagined the shocked expressions of others, especially that rich second generation Mu An, after the results came out, Bai Zihao's mood felt as refreshing as suddenly eating one popsicle after another in the hot summer.
When it comes to money, he might not be able to win against the other party.
But when it comes to studying, he would definitely be unbeatable!
