I turned reality into a romantic comedy.

Night fell, the Milky Way shone brightly, and all that could be seen were a few lights floating far away on the dark sea, which were probably ships or lighthouses anchored there.

In the stillness of the night, one can often feel the immeasurable vastness of the sea. Chen Junqian suddenly reached out to his left, only to bump into Gu Lingguo's right hand, which was reaching out to him. It was as if they had suddenly met on a deserted island at sea.

“Look over there, there are the stars that Lin Guo wants to see.”

In this tranquil atmosphere, as if he had suddenly discovered something, Chen Junqian pointed to a nearby beach.

Gu Linguo immediately turned her gaze in that direction, and saw that as a large, heavy wave receded, faint, scattered lights suddenly appeared on the beach.

Those were countless tiny, luminous creatures swaying with the waves, but from a distance, they looked like a real starry sky falling from the heavens, as if the sea had crushed the stars and embraced them in its own arms.

"Wow--!"

Gu Lingguo was also somewhat shocked and stood up. Ignoring the fine sand under her feet, she lifted her skirt and ran towards the shallows. With each step she took, a blue ripple would spread across the sea, as if she were stepping on a shattered galaxy.

Chen Junqian stood still, one hand in his pocket, squinting at the pretty figure running in the blue light and evening breeze, while his other hand took out his phone to take a couple of photos of her.

The moonlight was bright, and the sea breeze was gentle.

“Brother, come over here too.”

Soon, he saw the other person waving in his direction.

After Chen Junqian left, Gu Linguo spoke to him mysteriously again:

"Oh right, before dinner today, Xiaoxi suddenly asked me again if I could make a white-haired anime character, saying she wanted to see what a real white-haired wig looks like?"

So, are you starting to like her?

"Yeah! It's because there's a white-haired character I really like in this July's anime season. Speaking of which, Jun Maeda is definitely a white-haired fan, right? In the previous series, Tachibana Kanade from AB was white-haired, and this time, Tomori Nao is also white-haired, but I feel like this one is a bit grayish?"

"Although I sensed it when I made the video last time, does Lin Guo really like Charlotte that much?"

"Could you say that the first three episodes were bad? The art style, character design, and world-building were all great. I feel like the chance of it suddenly going bad later on is the same as if you were swimming in the ocean and suddenly bumped into the female lead whose swimsuit was being washed away, and then that would start a series of dazzling fan service scenes."

"...Then I feel like I'm really doomed."

P.S.: Thank you for reading and subscribing.

PS2: Although, putting aside Charlotte's plot for now, I still like her character design, and I used her emojis throughout my high school years.

Touching the day at the beginning of the month

As the title suggests, it's customary to touch the door on the first day of the month.

Regarding the fact that Mumu's fans in the group have already reached the top rank in Xuancheng City and are heading towards the top rank in Anhui Province, I feel it's time to add a mysterious "Honor of Kings master" setting to one of the female characters in the book. Using you as the timeline would indeed fit quite well.

In conclusion, thank you all for your continued support. You can find the pinned comment in the group section to join. The full subscription group feels like it has turned into a King of Glory group.

Chapter 123: Call Me Dad (4k7)

Einstein once explained his special theory of relativity in this sentence:

When you're chatting with someone you like, an hour may feel like only five minutes. But if you're sitting by a fireplace on a hot day, even five minutes can feel like a full hour.

Chen Junqian himself could never have imagined that this description, which could only be considered a popular science story or a science anecdote, would become a definite fact for him at this moment.

After safely escorting everyone back to their hotel rooms, he lay in bed and glanced at the time on his phone. It was around 10 p.m., but judging from his own perception, it should be at least midnight.

Even the most skilled time management master cannot change the established fact that there are only 24 hours in a day. However, in the case of the male protagonist of this romantic comedy, the system seems to have given the simplest and most direct answer, inexplicably slowing down the flow of time tonight and allowing him to spend one-on-one time with all the female protagonists.

That's why, later on, Chen Junqian could hear almost everyone saying a line from Einstein's story.

'Huh? Only five minutes have passed? I thought it had been at least half an hour.'

An idealistic worldview, isn't it amazing?

Chen Junqian was even considering using the system's mechanisms to do some tricks, after all, his predecessors who had transmigrated had all used romantic comedy systems or other "cornerstone strategy" systems to wreak havoc in the War Mania world. However, he would have to wait until his system, which had been dormant for several years, stabilized before making any moves. He decided to give up on it for now, as it was acting up every now and then.

Since it was getting late and he had been playing all day, there was no more pillow fight or board game activities. In addition, he had mentioned during the day that he wanted to be alone at night, so no girls came to find him. After taking a shower, Chen Junqian planned to go straight to sleep. However, his phone suddenly vibrated twice. When he picked it up, he saw two text messages that had been sent at the same time.

Should I wake my brother up again tomorrow morning?

I'll wake Qianqian up tomorrow; it'll be almost the 100th time!

Hmm... so why are they together?

"Although the room that you booked for us is indeed super, super luxurious, it means we'll lose the most important part of the summer camp chapter – the play! A summer romantic comedy without the girls' late-night chat in the sleeper berth won't satisfy me!"

By now, Chen Xi had gotten used to her best friend's habit of saying all sorts of strange things and then taking her out. In fact, she might actually envy her friend's high level of initiative and nonchalance. So tonight was no different. After her friend knocked on the door, she was bombarded with a bunch of nonsense and then they went straight to Lin Mu's place together.

"It sounds like a scene from a dormitory. I thought it was something you only see in college."

For Lin Mu, a girl who had never lived in a dormitory before, chatting with several other girls in a hotel room in an unfamiliar city at night was indeed a novel experience. So she not only wholeheartedly agreed to Gu Lingguo's suggestion, but also brought her best friend Xu Youwei along.

As for why Zhu Wenyun and Shen Nianqiu weren't invited, it's mainly because they spent their time together after returning. The reason given to them was that they had some writing ideas to discuss, but in reality, they were seriously watching Chen Junqian and Gu Linguo's anime videos together. Before this fast-paced era of "watching xxx in one go" and "pay attention to this man called Xiaoshuai" even arrived, they had already become pioneers who "haven't watched any of the new anime this month, but never miss a new anime preview or a post-anime review."

Okay, at least it's a bit more reliable than the previous pure cloud.

"So what do people usually talk about at these late-night chats?"

After changing into her own pajamas and letting her hair down, Xu Youwei looked completely different from her usual self. Perhaps because she had a good time setting off fireworks with Chen Junqian, her smile was quite bright.

"Of course, it's love!"

Faced with Xu Youwei's question, Gu Linguo, who seemed to have already thought of the answer, immediately raised an index finger and loudly pronounced the word.

At this point, she was somewhat relieved that Zhu Wenyun and Shen Nianqiu weren't around. After all, one of them was a seasoned romance novelist, and the other was an older sister who didn't look like a minor, so it was easy for her to make the topic less innocent. It was only when these girls talked about this topic that it would be more appropriate.

However, Gu Lingguo did not expect that among the four people present, apart from her, all of them had already had various ambiguous or romantic physical contacts with the male protagonist.

As for why Gu Linguo didn't have anything, we have to talk about the story of her going to a comic convention with Chen Junqian two months ago, but nothing happened.

Although she has consistently ranked among the most adaptable heroines in romantic comedies, it's still true that this adaptability is for romantic comedies and doesn't directly relate to real-life romance. Rather, it's more accurate to say that after stripping away all the disguises or protective shells given to her by the two-dimensional world, having a girl named Gu Lingguo use her own identity and her own name to do those things... she actually doesn't have the courage.

That's why, as soon as Gu Linguo said those words, the other three people's faces showed a change in emotion, with tension, shyness, and worry flashing across their faces in an instant.

"Is falling in love... too early?"

Lin Mu answered subconsciously. She always felt that this kind of thing, like a late-night chat, should only happen in college. However, just like the late-night chat that had already started, she couldn't help but feel a sense of novelty and excitement, and she couldn't help but sit up straight on the bed.

"No, in ancient times, people could actually get married at fifteen or sixteen, right, Xiaoxi?"

Although Gu Lingguo, who was currently wearing a cotton onesie with a giant rubber duck printed on it and sprawled out on the soft mattress with a lollipop she had taken from the hotel minibar in her mouth, was not convincing when she said this, Chen Xi, who was curled up in the corner of the bed and blowing her hair with a hairdryer, still temporarily turned off the hairdryer and nodded with a "hmm".

"But this isn't ancient times anymore."

"But we haven't talked about marriage, we're just dating, dating, dating—"

Seemingly feeling that she had to target someone before she could officially start the conversation, Gu Linguo immediately locked onto her best friend. She crawled over to Chen Xi like a kitten, poked her fair and rosy cheeks after her shower, and turned her attention to Zhu Wenyun, who happened to be away.

"Xiaoxi, to be honest, this afternoon at the beach, you said that the senior was pretending to faint there, and that Sister Wenyun was the first to discover it. Is it possible that you went there yourself and became a third wheel? After all, if you hadn't gone there, Sister Wenyun might have already done what the senior wanted and given him CPR."

Chen Xi almost choked on her best friend's question, but she couldn't really say that it was actually a scheme orchestrated by her brother and Zhu Wenyun to get her to kiss him—something the latter had personally confirmed—nor could she say that the other party was in that position because of her. After twitching her lips for a long time, she could only give a perfunctory "uh-huh."

"My brother didn't date Sister Wenyun."

"Not necessarily. After all, Sister Wenyun is currently preparing a new book with herself as the female protagonist. She originally said she was going to write a two-dimensional female protagonist and even interviewed me. But she changed it immediately. Something must have happened in between, like a secret romance or something."

Now it was Xu Youwei's turn to have a complicated feeling, having actually had a secret relationship. She didn't need any complicated multiple qualifying terms; Qinqin's first love was her, and her first love was Chen Junqian. So she immediately retorted:

"How could it be a secret romance? Putting aside Qinqin, Wenyun's personality definitely wouldn't allow it. Although she's a super artsy type, she's not a riddle when she speaks. You'd be better off suspecting Sister Nianqiu than her."

"That's right, actually Sister Nianqiu is also in a bad situation. Look, their novels are being adapted into TV series and movies right now, and the senior was very careful when applying sunscreen to her today."

"Wasn't Mu Mu also coated with it?"

Lin Mu, who was pulled into the conversation by Xu Youwei, subconsciously exclaimed "Eh!" She had almost forgotten about the matter, but was reminded of it again.

"I had already left by then, so what difference did it make?"

"Hmm, I guess I just applied extra cream to my waist and back, and I unbuttoned the back of my swimsuit."

Completely surprised that something like this would happen after she escaped, Lin Mu blinked twice, then unconsciously reached up and touched her back. Suddenly, she began to imagine the feeling of her childhood sweetheart's hands applying sunscreen to her skin, and then she collapsed onto the bed with a thud.

"Moreover, Sister Nianqiu should be the first girlfriend that the senior brought to meet his parents."

"With all these various modifiers and prefixes, anyone can be the first. I could say that I... cough, Mu Mu was Qin Qin's first childhood sweetheart. See, no prefix is ​​needed."

"Childhood sweethearts and girlfriends can't be equated..."

"Just don't say that to Wenjun."

"Hehe, actually I've always been a childhood sweetheart type."

"But if Lin Guo wants to know if Qianqian is dating anyone, why doesn't she just ask him directly?"

"Let's forget about it then. It's just gossip time among us girls, and it has nothing to do with the person in question, so we can say whatever we want."

Seemingly realizing that everyone's attention was on her, Gu Linguo quickly changed the subject again:

"On another note, which of you two will be waking up the senior tomorrow morning?"

At first, Chen Xi didn't seem to care much about this problem, which was in a sense comparable to the proverb "two peaches kill three warriors," and casually replied:

"Let's do it together. It's not like we haven't encountered this situation before."

"But we've never all been together before. What I mean is, will Sister Nianqiu wake up the senior? There's a scene like that in the book 'My Dear Forever Dear'."

Lin Mu seemed momentarily stumped by Gu Linguo's question, and instinctively turned to look at Chen Xi, asking:

"I remember that Sister Shen stayed at Qianqian's house during the Chinese New Year this year, right? Did Xiaoxi wake him up back then?"

"Um... right?"

Now that things have come to this, she can no longer say that she actually slept with Chen Junqian that night. But who says that sleeping together until dawn doesn't count as waking up her brother? She just arrived a little early and couldn't resist her sleepiness, so she fell asleep there for a while.

"Why do you all seem so uncertain? Why don't you send a message to your senior and ask?"

Why together?

"Because that's how it's always portrayed in romantic comedies, and then comes the much-anticipated chaotic love triangle!"

Seeing Gu Linguo proudly puffing out her chest, Lin Mu and Chen Xi couldn't help but think of the advice their mother had given them: don't argue with a fool. So they agreed to her suggestion and together sent the inquiry text message to Chen Junqian.

"And then what? What was your answer, senior? When will domestic software be able to add a 'read' display function?"

"Qianqian's reply was, 'Let Lin Guo go to sleep early.'"

"They actually found out... Bitter Lucy."

Gu Linguo cooperated by putting on an expression as if he were some minor villain who had been knocked to the ground.

"So what do we do tomorrow morning? Together?"

Ignoring her best friend's dramatic outburst, Chen Xi turned to ask Lin Mu again.
