In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
He Xie sat on the bed with his back against the wall, staring intently at the mission countdown.
When the last second of time has elapsed.
Several system notifications popped up in his mind at the same time.
[Ding-dong!]
[Successfully completed the task of creating a chauvinistic persona; reward: one Mythical Dao Fruit.]
[The Mythical Dao Fruit has been issued and automatically stored in your system inventory. You can retrieve it yourself.]
He Xie burst into tears. The torment he had endured for a whole month of cultivating a macho persona finally came to an end at this moment.
He calmed himself down a bit, then immediately opened his system inventory and took out the Mythical Dao Fruit.
This mythical Dao Fruit looks very ordinary; it's just a black dragon fruit.
Perhaps it's because the greatest truths are the simplest.
He Xie didn't think too much, and directly took the fruit and said with a thought: Devour!
The next second, countless numerical prompts exploded from the depths of his mind.
[Qi and Blood Boost +%!]
[Mental Energy +%!]
[Self-healing rate +%!]
[Vitality +%!]
[Poison Resistance +%!]
【......+......%！】
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
He Xie didn't know how many attributes he had gained, he only knew that his body was being stimulated so much that he couldn't help but gasp repeatedly.
This stimulation lasted for more than half an hour before gradually subsiding.
"Phew~"
He Xie sat on the bed and exhaled a deep breath.
He calmed his mind and focused on feeling his physical body and spirit.
It has very high strength.
It's so high that it feels like you can shatter stars with your fist, and turn the ocean into a mulberry field in an instant.
"Is this what a mythical creature is?"
"Very strong!"
A confident smile involuntarily appeared on He Xie's face, filled with anticipation for the upcoming National College Student League tomorrow.
Suddenly, he remembered something, immediately took out his phone from his pocket, and opened WeChat.
He clicked on Lin Chuchu's profile picture and entered her Moments.
Hmm, it's still blank.
Lin Chuchu hasn't added him back yet.
Should I add her back and then explain things to her properly?
A month ago, He Xie would have thought exactly that.
But now, looking at Lin Chuchu's WeChat profile picture, he somehow realized that he didn't seem to care about her as much anymore.
It's like that feeling of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is gone.
"Forget it, I'll just wait for her to add me back and contact me first. I can't always be the one to apologize."
"If she doesn't add me back, then we should just break up."
He Xie muttered a few words, then put away his phone, got out of bed to pack his luggage for the National College Student League at Shanhai Evolution University, planning to have a good meal and rest for the night before setting off.
"Dong dong dong!"
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
He Xie sensed that it was Su Jiu'er knocking on the door, so he said, "Come in."
"Creak—"
Su Jiu'er gently opened the door and walked in slowly and hesitantly.
She walked to the bedside and sat down, looking at He Xie standing in front of the wardrobe. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Master, did you break up with Chu Chu?"
"How do you know?"
He Xie asked her a question in return.
Su Jiu'er shook her nine tails and said in a soft voice, "I have Chu Chu's WeChat. I saw her post on her Moments saying that she's single."
He Xie didn't hide anything, and said while packing his luggage, "Yes, we've been separated for a month."
"ah?"
Su Jiu'er was somewhat surprised; had they really been separated for a month?
Then, her eyes lit up quickly, and she hinted, "Master, a boy's love life shouldn't have any gaps. I suggest you find another girlfriend right now."
He Xie turned to look at her and bluntly asked in a very straightforward manner, "You want to climb the social ladder?"
"No, not at all."
Su Jiu'er pouted in denial, but quickly added shyly, rubbing her hands together, "However, if Master wants me to be your girlfriend, then it's not entirely impossible..."
He Xie laughed, then said coldly, "Heh, you wish."
Su Jiu'er was speechless, not knowing what to say.
He Xie ignored her and said to herself, "From now on, I want to be single forever, without any constraints."
Hearing him say that, Su Jiu'er gave up and stopped trying to embarrass herself.
She got out of bed and stopped beside He Xie, leaning seductively against the wardrobe. She slightly raised her beautiful, innocent yet alluring face, gazing at He Xie with affectionate eyes, and breathed softly, "My lord, I want it~"
He Xie smiled without saying a word, picked her up and put her on the bed, and did what she wanted to do.
All told, he hadn't been intimate with Su Jiu'er for a whole month.
To be honest, the two of them had been holding back for a long time.
After a series of dramatic events...
Su Jiu'er walked out of He Xie's room with a satisfied look on her face, carrying the crumpled bed sheet downstairs to the bathroom where the washing machine was located.
Meanwhile, He Xie was lying on the bed without sheets, playing on his phone and scrolling through news about the battlefield of the myriad races.
The more he read the news, the deeper his brow furrowed.
Humanity's defensive line on the battlefield of all races has completely collapsed, and all members of the Dawn Organization have retreated to the border within human territory, prepared to hold out to the death.
"The situation is very bad."
He Xie murmured to himself, planning to go to the front lines as soon as the National University League ended to see what level he, having evolved to the first level of Mythic Realm, would be at.
If you are invincible, then go ahead and slaughter everyone in sight, defeating all races single-handedly.
If there are still many opponents that cannot be dealt with, then hide in the shadows and act as a jungler, constantly hunting down ancient alien races in secret and devouring their corpses to evolve.
"Dong dong dong!"
Suddenly, there was another knock on the door.
This time it wasn't Su Jiu'er, but the younger sister Song Yuxin from the opposite room.
He Xie didn't know why Song Yuxin had come over, but he still called out softly towards the door, "The door isn't locked, just push it open and come in."
"Brother, I'm coming in now."
A soft voice came from outside the door.
Soon after, with a creak, Song Yuxin, wearing a blue dress and white stockings, pushed open the door and walked in.
He Xie looked at her with a smile and said, "Did you come to see me because you need something?"
Song Yuxin pursed her lips and asked, "Brother, did you break up with Sister Chuchu?"
He Xie: "Yeah, we broke up a month ago."
Song Yuxin: "Did something happen?"
He Xie: "Children shouldn't gossip about so many adult things; studying hard is the most important thing."
Song Yuxin puffed out her cute cheeks and said somewhat angrily, "I'm not a child, I know a lot."
"Um?"
He Xie raised an eyebrow, and his gaze toward Song Yuxin became strange.
Song Yuxin realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly lowered her head, blushing.
He Xie was also amused by her, and his face was full of smiles.
After catching her breath, Song Yuxin raised her head and asked again, "Brother, Sister Chuchu is such a good girl, why did you break up with her?"
"There's no reason why, I just don't like it anymore."
He Xie didn't want to explain too much, so he just threw out this excuse to brush it off.
Is that so?
Song Yuxin nodded, showing no sign of regret for the two of them; in fact, she seemed quite pleased.
She quickly sat down next to He Xie, hesitated for a moment before asking, "Brother, what kind of girl do you like?"
Oh? You're asking me that kind of question?
He Xie looked at Song Yuxin beside him and suddenly realized that this girl seemed to have some ulterior motives towards him, so he chuckled and teased her, "I like girls who like to pick their toes."
Song Yuxin: "???"
[The contrast value from Song Yuxin is +9816.]
......
Time flies.
I was just lying there playing on my phone for a while, and before I knew it, it was five o'clock in the afternoon.
At this moment, the three eldest women in the family were busy in the kitchen, carefully preparing tonight's dinner.
The one ranked fourth is currently studying diligently in his room.
As for the two younger ones, one was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, while the other was squatting in the yard, oblivious to everything else, playing with the mud.
"Shake~"
Suddenly, the phone started twitching violently.
He Xie kept looking at his phone screen and immediately saw that it was a message from Chen Yuntong on WeChat.
Chen Yuntong: Thank you. I made some desserts at home today. Would you like to try some?
He Xie: Thank you, but no need.
Chen Yuntong: I made it myself, and it tastes better than the desserts sold in outside dessert shops.
He Xie: No, I'm too lazy to go out.
Chen Yuntong: You don't need to go out, I'll take you home.
He Xie: That would be too much trouble for you, I'd rather not.
Chen Yuntong: No trouble at all, I'll head out to your house right now.
He Xie: I'm not home right now, I'm traveling with my family, so you'd better not come.
This reason is far-fetched and obviously made up.
Anyone who believes that is an idiot.
Chen Yuntong did not reply to the message. It is unclear whether she did not see it or saw it but pretended not to.
He Xie ignored her and continued to lie on the bed playing on his phone and browsing the news.
About ten minutes later, his phone started twitching again.
It was Chen Yuntong who sent the message on WeChat.
Chen Yuntong: I'm at your door. Can you come out and get the dessert?
He Xie really didn't want to have any contact with her, so he pretended not to see her.
You can't blame him for being inhuman.
He had already told her not to come, but Chen Yuntong insisted on coming anyway, so she deserved to be turned away.
......
Outside the courtyard.
Chen Yuntong stood alone outside the door, carrying a small cloth bag full of snacks, waiting for He Xie's reply.
After waiting for ten minutes, He Xie still hadn't replied.
Half an hour passed, but He Xie still hadn't replied.
But she kept waiting, trying to reassure herself that He Xie probably hadn't checked his phone, and that he would see it if she waited a little longer.
In truth, she probably knew in her heart that He Xie didn't want to pay any attention to her.
But there was nothing she could do. She liked He Xie a lot, but He Xie didn't like her back. So she could only try to increase her presence in He Xie's heart through this humble and annoying method.
I hope that by relentlessly pursuing him without any regard for dignity, I can get a little closer to He Xie.
Of course, the most important thing is that she learned from some of her high school classmates that He Xie and Lin Chuchu had broken up.
This was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her, who was obsessed with He Xie to the point of madness.
If I can seize the opportunity, I might just become He Xie's girlfriend.
Even if there's only a 0.00001% chance, she has to seize it as much as possible.
With this mindset in mind, Chen Yuntong waited outside the door for almost an hour, until the sun was almost setting and it was getting dark, but she was unwilling to leave, determined to wait for He Xie to reply to her message.
It has to be said, being a simp to this extent is quite ruthless.
"Oh, you're Chen Yuntong from the Plant Nurturing Academy?"
Suddenly, a rough male voice rang out behind Chen Yuntong.
She turned around following the sound and saw a big, burly boy.
This boy was none other than Zhang Ze, who lived in the apartment complex across the street.
He had just finished eating and had arranged to meet Zhang Kaizi at an internet cafe to play ranked matches and try to reach Silver rank tonight.
Chen Yuntong didn't recognize Zhang Ze. When he called her by name directly, she asked in confusion, "Hello, may I ask who you are?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Zhang Ze from the Qi and Blood Academy."
Zhang Ze revealed what he thought was a very sunny and handsome smile and said, "I saw your photo on the goddess list before, so I know you."
Chen Yuntong: "I see."
Looking at the snacks she was carrying, Zhang Ze couldn't help but feel a little envious and said, "You're here to see He Xie, right?"
Chen Yuntong nodded and said, "Yes, I came to bring him some snacks, but he doesn't seem to have checked his phone and doesn't know I've arrived."
"Should we give him some snacks?"
Zhang Ze was puzzled and asked, "He Xie has a girlfriend, why are you giving him snacks?"
Chen Yuntong didn't mention that He Xie had broken up with Lin Chuchu, but instead said, "I like him, so I want to give him some homemade desserts so he can try them."
Zhang Ze couldn't take it anymore; he felt extremely unbalanced.
Damn it, we're all human, so why does He Xie have so many beautiful girls throwing themselves at him, while I can only kiss and kiss paper dolls?
That's not fair!
Thinking it over, he advised Chen Yuntong, "Chen, there are plenty of good men in this world. You don't need to hang yourself on a tree that's already taken."
Chen Yuntong said stubbornly, "But I just like He Xie."
Zhang Ze had a toothache, so he could only vent his anger on He Xie, belittling him and saying, "He Xie is such a womanizer. He already has a girlfriend, but he still keeps you hanging on like this. He's such a jerk!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuntong immediately became displeased and retorted angrily, "He didn't string me along. I was the one who shamelessly threw myself at him. You're not allowed to speak ill of him!"
Holy crap, she's a hopeless simp!
This child is beyond redemption!
Zhang Ze shook his head, too lazy to persuade Chen Yuntong any further, and turned to leave.
Today is a rare weekend off, and he and Zhang Kaizi have made plans to play games all night tonight. He can't wait to go to the internet cafe to climb the ranks.
As for the stunningly beautiful Chen Yuntong...
Ha, what woman is more fun than a game?
And so, Zhang Ze left, leaving Chen Yuntong alone waiting at the door.
But after taking only a couple of steps, his inner sycophantic side was triggered, and he couldn't bear to see Chen Yuntong standing alone and helplessly at the door waiting for He Xie.
So he immediately went back and shouted at the top of his lungs toward the orphanage, "Thank you!"
Chen Yuntong from the Plant Nursery College is waiting for you at your doorstep!
!
"Someone brought you homemade snacks to your doorstep!"
We've been waiting for you outside for almost half a day!
Where the hell have you been?!
!
Are you even a man?!
!
Zhang Ze shouted these words loudly, ostensibly to stand up for Chen Yuntong, but in reality, he was venting his envy, jealousy, and hatred towards He Xie.
Some are dying of drought, while others are dying of flooding.
Having been single since birth, he was truly envious of He Xie's idyllic life, with girls chasing after him and practically throwing themselves at him every day.
"Tap! Tap! Tap..."
Suddenly, a series of hurried running sounds came from inside the courtyard.
Soon, a loud bang was heard!
A little girl who looked only five or six years old smashed the gate of the yard with her own body, and shouted at the top of her lungs with saliva dripping from her mouth: "Where are the snacks!"
!
Zhang Zeren was stunned.
Chen Yuntong was also dumbfounded.
What the heck?
A tiny little girl smashed through a door that looked incredibly sturdy.
Is this even a human being?
......
