The male supporting character was actually myself.

While Ji Jiangchen was in the kitchen having breakfast, he hurriedly stuffed the things he had bought the night before into the other person's bag.

"Host, you're on a date today!" the little white cat asked while munching on a fried pork cutlet. "I don't want to be a third wheel!"

So...can I stay home and play video games?

“Playing games at home is fine, but we won’t be back until tomorrow afternoon. Do you need me to save you some food?” Jiang Chen asked while replying to his girlfriend’s message on his phone.

The little white cat rubbed its paws excitedly and said, "I've prepared a recipe. Could you please make it in the food-making machine for me, host, and then take it out so I can put it in my space and eat it slowly!"

As it spoke, it pushed over a piece of paper with crooked handwriting.

"Curry beef, braised duck leg, honey-glazed roasted pork, braised pork belly, steamed sea bass..." He frowned slightly, "Can you finish all of this?"

The fluffy little thing snuggled up to him and rubbed its furry head against his neck. "Host is the best! Make it for me! If I can't finish it, I can put it in my space. It won't spoil anyway."

As he stored each dish of food into his system space, the little white cat waved its paw at him with a smile.

After Jiang Chen went downstairs with his bag, it jumped up happily, "Wow! I can play games however I want now! This time I'm definitely going to get to the Supreme Glory rank!"

The little white cat, engrossed in its game while snuggled in its comfortable bed, was completely unaware that the lurking black cat was watching Ji Jiangchen's every move.

After confirming that he had driven off, Ye Xingluo threw away the remaining medicine box, stuffed a tray of light blue pills into a small black velvet bag, and tied the opening tightly to her collar.

After making the necessary preparations, he opened the door and went out.

"Dangdang!"

The door opened with a thud, and the little white cat chased after it, only to catch a glimpse of a fluffy black tail disappearing into the elevator lobby. It stroked its ear and muttered, "Go away, go away, it's better if you don't come back!"

"Linglong Mountain Scenic Area..."

Ye Xinglu recalled the hotel address she remembered, then followed the crowd onto the subway after leaving the house.

After changing buses twice, he quietly slipped onto a tourist bus whose target was the Linglong Mountain Scenic Area.

After a bumpy two-hour ride, Ye Xinglu got off the bus at the scenic area around noon. After finding the hotel that Ji Jiangchen had booked, she quickly spotted his car.

"Wait patiently, no rush!" He yawned, ate a few bites of his own cat food, and began to doze off under the bushes in the hotel.

As night slowly fell, the hotel began to come alive.

"I had so much fun today, but I'm so tired!" Li Qingcheng, dressed in sportswear, leaned on her boyfriend's shoulder as the two walked hand in hand slowly back to the hotel, feeling sweet and happy.

Jiang Chen looked down at her profile and chuckled, "It's because you don't get enough exercise."

"When we have time later, let's do some cardio together, interact and work out. Your strength and endurance will gradually improve."

Li Qingcheng looked at him with a hint of slyness, "Why do I feel like what you said... had a hidden meaning?"

"With your fingers?" he asked with a mischievous grin, leaning close to his girlfriend's ear.

Her face flushed instantly, and she whispered, "You're so naughty!"

"What did I do to be called bad? I didn't do anything."

"What else do you want to do?"

"That depends on you!"

……

Li Qingcheng's ears turned bright red, and her cheeks were slightly flushed with a hint of anticipation.

They went straight to the restaurant for dinner before returning to their room.

Ji Jiangchen booked two rooms that were right next to each other.

As soon as he got back, he went to the bathroom to take a shower, and soon a black, hairy head appeared through the open window.

"A golden opportunity!"

Ye Xinglu climbed up and jumped into the house. She listened to the sound of water coming from the bathroom and laughed to herself: Ji Jiangchen, you've finally met your match!

You dared to drug me? I'll get my revenge today, even worse than before!

He quickly scratched open the seal with his claws and put a small, pale blue pill into a half-cup of warm water on the table.

"One more!" Just as she turned to leave, Ye Xingluo went all in, pulling out another pill and tossing it in, laughing triumphantly, "This is the highest-rated aphrodisiac online, Ji Jiangchen, I'll eat my hat if you can get out of bed tomorrow!"

Having succeeded in her plan, Ye Xinglu swaggered back through the window with an arrogant, cat-like gait, seemingly oblivious to her own family.

Chapter Twenty-Three: This is a Death Question

"Ah Chen, I'm coming in!"

After showering and changing into her pajamas, still smelling damp and fragrant, Li Qingcheng knocked on the door, swiped her card, and entered. She found her boyfriend still in the bathroom, and bored, she sat on the sofa and casually turned on the TV.

Thinking about her plan, she felt nervous, her palms sweating, and a little ashamed, and her mouth went dry.

"Glug glug!" Li Qingcheng downed the half-glass of warm water on the table in one gulp, then cheered herself up, "You can do it, keep going!"

Stealing a glance at the clothes she had specially prepared under her pajamas, she pretended to be calm while watching Animal World.

After taking a relaxing hot bath, Jiang Chen finally stepped out of the bathroom and saw Li Qingcheng, her face slightly flushed, leaning against the bathroom door.

"Ah Chen!"

Upon seeing him, Li Qingcheng rushed over and gave him a warm, big hug.

Jiang Chen noticed that her breathing was a little rapid.

"Are you OK?"

"Something's wrong!" With her heart pounding, Li Qingcheng stuffed the box she found in his bag into Jiang Chen's hand, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear, "I had a plan!"

But now I find it too troublesome and verbose.

Let's get straight to the point!

Pulling aside the obstructions that block the view, from a high vantage point, the mountain peaks, shrouded in a layer of black mist, appear and disappear.

The mountain scenery is so beautiful that it's hard not to want to go.

"Ah Chen, do you love me?" Li Qingcheng murmured softly.

The mist was gradually lifted by the night breeze, revealing a beautiful scene.

Fish dart and play in the secret garden;

Vines and wild grasses intertwine and crisscross.

The spring flows silently, cherishing its gentle stream.

The shade of the trees reflects on the water, a gentle and sunny scene.

A faint, moist scent of spring permeated the air.

"Of course... I love you very much," he replied softly.

"Love isn't just something you say casually." Li Qingcheng said the sentence she had already prepared, with her eyes closed. "You have to prove you can do it with your actions!"

After tearing open the outer packaging, Jiang Chen glanced at it and saw that it was a pack of ten.

If we use them all, that should prove our sincerity, right?

The night grew deeper.

Ye Xingluo lay on a tree branch, squinting her eyes as she drifted into a sweet dream;

Occasionally, a low murmur or two of lament would rise, followed by a subdued silence.

Good rain knows its season; it falls when spring arrives.

Sneaked into the night wind, moisten things silently.

The sun sets behind the mountains, the Yellow River flows into the sea, day after day, endlessly…

"Ha..." Just as dawn was breaking, Ye Xinglu stretched and watched as the progress bar for conquering Ji Jiangchen increased significantly, feeling quite gratified.

Achieving revenge while completing the mission – the best of both worlds!

When Jiang Chen returned home that evening, Ye Xingluo was leaning on the balcony looking at the night view.

"Tangyuan, tell me honestly what you've done."

Suddenly grabbed by the scruff of her neck, Ye Xingluo tensed up, meowing nervously, "What are you saying? I don't understand?"

"Host, the protagonist says he doesn't understand!" The little white cat, holding a phone, acted as a translator.

Jiang Chen shoved the remaining medicine from the velvet bag into its face. "You've learned how to drug me, huh?"

"Ah... well..."

Ye Xinglu glanced guiltily at the pills, then stole a look at the orange cat eating its cat food, wondering how it had found them. She had hidden them so well!

Did Doubao snitch on us?

His keen intuition made him feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy; this was a life-or-death question!

If he didn't show sincerity and try to get away with it, he'd be finished. Given Ji Jiangchen's vindictive nature, nightmare-like images flashed through his mind, such as crunchy balls, wearing skirts, and catnip...

"I did it." Ye Xingluo said with a sincere attitude, "I'm worried for you two because you only talk the talk but don't walk the walk. Li Qingcheng is such a good girl, you should cherish her!"

Don't worry, I'll buy you the best brands.

That grainy texture must have been a great experience, right?

Um... well... when are you planning to get married? I'll give you a gift (or a monetary gift)!"

After listening to the little white fluffy dumpling's simultaneous translation, Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes.

The protagonist is so actively buying drugs and tools, is it to complete a quest?

"I hope this is the last mistake you make." Jiang Chen tapped its nose with his finger and warned, "If there's a next time, I guarantee you'll wish you were dead!"

"Definitely, definitely, definitely!" Ye Xinglu nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice.

The meowing sound was incredibly sweet.

Only after that devilish man turned and left did he breathe a sigh of relief and realize that the hair on the back of his head was standing on end!

Eh?

Have I changed that much?

Ye Xingluo suddenly realized that if it were in the past, she would have definitely stood her ground and never backed down.
