Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.
—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.
<...Unsurprisingly, it was He Junhao's "death cake" again.
This time it's a bit different, though; it's a monster with Cthulhu elements.
Several scarlet tentacles stretched out their bizarre limbs, appearing as if they had truly come to life, incredibly lifelike.
Xiao He glanced at it and actually found the strange creature somewhat cute.
Damn it, has aesthetics become so perverse that they've changed?
Shu Han also came over to take a look. He frowned at first glance, but relaxed after the second look: "It's a rather interesting little gadget."
If it's meant to be appreciated, it certainly looks very interesting, but if it's meant to be eaten, it really diminishes one's appetite.
Others also gathered around and began to analyze the work in a serious manner.
"Isn't that an octopus? Or is its head buried under the cake?"
"You're so outdated! Don't you know this is called Cthulhu style? That's what it looks like! It's not an octopus!"
"I must say, these tentacles are quite realistic. Are they made of chocolate or maltose? How did they manage to make them so malleable?"
"I think the only pity is that its tentacles shouldn't have been covered with red syrup. After it dries, the whole thing is shiny, which is very different from the color of blood, making it look fake at first glance."
"Yes, yes, but I'm quite curious about the taste..."
He Junhao crossed his arms and proudly raised his chin: "Hmph, it seems my work is quite popular!"
Xiao He, still holding the lid: ...
It's no wonder everyone can get along so well, given how well they can maintain this train of thought in this situation...
In the end, the cake was divided up among everyone, as expected.
Perfect, one tentacle for each person, no need for anyone to fight over it, just right.
Xiao Chen stared at the bright red tentacles, her pupils dilating in shock, as if her worldview had been shaken. Old Qi, on the other hand, remained calm and composed, swallowing the "tentacle" whole. The others followed suit, but Liu Rulan and Shu Han, mindful of their figures, only ate a small piece symbolically, leaving the rest for the others.
As for Xiao He, keeping his mouth shut was no longer a consideration for him.
One word: awesome!
...
On the afternoon of New Year's Day, before the official broadcast of "Yu Ye", He Xiaoshuai, who had been working overtime to edit the video, also updated his latest video on various platforms.
In the video, He Xiaoshuai starts off mysteriously and then leads everyone to a villa.
When that familiar figure appeared in the video, the comments section erupted once again.
[Shocking! That man reappeared in He Xiaoshuai's video!]
[We didn't spend New Year's Eve together last year, and I thought Brother Xiao had forgotten about our handsome guy. Turns out, after all this time, you guys are still hanging out together.]
I remember Xiao Shuai went to the premiere of "Law of the Jungle" and even filmed a video. They've always had a good relationship.
[Last year, Brother Xiao was in Beijing, so he couldn't go back to Shanghai for the Spring Festival.]
[I never expected to see Brother Xiao in Xiao Shuai's video again.]
[I celebrated New Year's Eve with Xiao Ge last night, and now I'm able to see the full version of your New Year's Eve vlog. I feel like my life is complete.]
Wow, Xiao Shuai, you've really struck it rich! You've managed to get both Brother Xiao and Brother Shu in one go.
Am I the only one who's really looking forward to seeing Xiao Ge and Shu Ge collaborate on a project sometime? They're the heads of Linghui Entertainment now, after all; they need to maintain a strong image!
