Chapter 1: Getting friend-zoned at the start



He maxed out his credit card to buy a set, intending to surprise Chen Yuan, but unexpectedly, he was dumped.

Ye Chen took out the Mystery of the Deep Sea, revealing a small, unpackaged bottle at the bottom of the delivery box.

"Could it be a free sample?"

Curious, he picked up the small bottle and examined it closely. The bottle contained a milky white liquid, the same color as the Deep Sea Mystery, which further confirmed his guess that it was a sample.

"Want to try it out?"

Ye Chen was somewhat tempted. He was someone who paid great attention to his appearance, and he had never used high-end skincare products from this parallel world before, so the effects should be quite good.

He unscrewed the small bottle, went to the sink, but seeing his disheveled appearance in the mirror, he shook his head, casually placed the bottle on the sink, and went into the bathroom.

After washing up, the hangover felt much better. He returned to the sink and saw himself in the mirror with a head of smooth, black hair, a handsome face with well-defined features, and deep, dark eyes. He was definitely a handsome guy!

He picked up the small bottle, poured out the lotion inside, and started applying it in front of the mirror.

Perhaps it's psychological, but I feel that this Deep Sea Mystery product is really effective; it's cool and moisturizing, and feels exceptionally comfortable on my face.

Ye Chen picked up the small bottle again, preparing to pour out another portion.

His eyes glanced casually, and some small black dots inside the bottle caught his attention.

"Could it be expired?"

Ye Chen was puzzled. He picked up the small bottle and examined it closely, but found no markings such as production date or expiration date.

Three-no products!

His face darkened, and he cursed the unscrupulous merchant in his heart. His cheeks, which had felt cool and moist just a moment ago, no longer felt so comfortable!

To figure out what the black spots were, Ye Chen poured all the lotion from the small bottle onto the sink and stared intently at it for a closer look!

"Damn, it really is expired! It's all moldy and there are bugs inside! This unscrupulous seller, I'm definitely going to file a complaint!"

Ye Chen muttered to himself, "There's a small clump in the lotion where a mayfly-like object is moving around, and there seem to be some smaller microorganisms around it."

Even through the lotion, Ye Chen couldn't see very clearly. He stretched out his finger and smoothed out the lotion to make the black dot in the center more obvious.

Suddenly, the largest black spot in the lotion burst out with a tiny red light, as if it had exploded.

"What happened?"

Ye Chen blinked, thinking he was seeing things. Could mayfly creatures in this parallel world really self-destruct?

The next moment, his finger felt a slight pain, as if pricked by a hair.

Ye Chen quickly withdrew his finger, looked at it, and found no damage. When he looked at the lotion again, the black spots inside had disappeared without a trace!

He checked it several times and found that it was really gone, without even a trace.

Ye Chen still felt a little uneasy. He wondered if it was just his imagination, but he felt something was off about his face.

He turned on the tap, washed his face several times, and cleaned the lotion off the sink before leaving the bathroom.

Back in his bedroom, Ye Chen felt a little dizzy again for some reason.

Maybe I'm still a bit tipsy. I should take another nap.
