Abyss Sequence

For someone who is self-satisfied, ignoring him is the most effective way to anger him.

Guo Xu couldn't help but snicker at Li Yiming's performance.

He had guessed early on that if Li Yiming knew about Yan Luo's attitude towards him, he would definitely lose his composure.

As long as Li Yiming wanted to engage with Yan Luo for any advantage, he would inevitably find out that Yan Luo had long forgotten about him. After all, Yan Luo was someone who could never hold back words, always speaking his mind without any roundabout ways.

Others were startled by Li Yiming's sudden outburst. Two classmates who had a decent relationship with him intended to step in as mediators, but were cursed back by Li Yiming.

"Who do you guys think you are? Want to mediate? Do you even have the ability?" Li Yiming cursed angrily.

The two classmates originally intended to help ease the situation, but immediately got upset after being scolded by Li Yiming.

One of them immediately retorted, "And who do you think you are? If not for your father's wealth, would you be enjoying luxury now? At least Yan Luo fought for everything on his own, and he's worth more than your dad! What qualifications do you have to be noticed by Yan Luo? If you weren't his classmate, would he even look at you?"

Li Yiming's forehead veins throbbed, his eyes turned red, and he roared as he swung his fist.

A strong and powerful hand reached out from the side, grabbing Li Yiming's wrist.

In front of Yan Luo, Li Yiming's punch couldn't possibly land.

Li Yiming yanked hard but couldn't pull his hand out of Yan Luo's grasp.

That was inevitable, as Yan Luo could now rival top lethal level Demons with just his physical strength, standing equal even against City-breaking Level Demons.

"Don't go crazy here," Yan Luo said calmly.

"Let go!" Li Yiming shouted at Yan Luo.

He pulled his hand again, not expecting Yan Luo to actually let go, causing Li Yiming to stumble back a couple of steps and fall onto the ground.

"You—!" Li Yiming gritted his teeth and glared at Yan Luo, only to meet Yan Luo's indifferent gaze.

"Ahem!"

Xu Zhiyuan walked over, reaching out to pull Li Yiming up from the ground.

His father was even more powerful than Li Yiming's, so Li Yiming dared not give him a hard time.

With a gentle smile, Xu Zhiyuan advised Li Yiming, "Yiming, you might be a bit drunk. How about you go back and rest for a bit?"

This was a party hosted by Xu Zhiyuan, and ruining it would be a blow to his face.

Hearing this, Li Yiming stayed silent for a moment, mumbled an "okay," grabbed his coat, and left the banquet hall.

After leaving the hall, Li Yiming fiercely glanced back once before leaving.

Xu Zhiyuan smiled apologetically to the classmates, "I'm really sorry, I intended for everyone to have fun, but I didn't expect something like this to happen."

"It's okay, class rep, it's not your fault; it's all Li Yiming's issue,"

People quickly defended Xu Zhiyuan.

Xu Zhiyuan smiled again, "Now it's quite late. Are you all heading to the nearby KTV for another round or going home?"

At this moment, Wang Lingyu stood up, pulling Yan Luo along, "Sorry, Yan Luo and I are leaving!"

Xu Zhiyuan wore a teasing smile, and elongated his voice, "Oh? You and Yan Luo?"

Wang Lingyu's cheeks flushed slightly; she responded thick-skinned, "Yes, me and Yan Luo! Isn't that right, Yan Luo?"

The latter part of her sentence was directed at Yan Luo.

Yan Luo's expression remained calm, "I don't mind."

Wang Lingyu knew Yan Luo well, understanding that he always seemed indifferent about such matters.

Hearing this, Xu Zhiyuan waved them off, "Go on then."

Saying that, Xu Zhiyuan exchanged a look with Guo Xu, who was a bit slow to react initially. He then understood, having already stood halfway up wanting to leave with Yan Luo and Wang Lingyu, he then shifted to Xu Zhiyuan's side, patted his shoulder, and said to Yan Luo with a smile, "I'm going to sing with the class rep, so Yan Luo, you should take Lingyu home. Make sure she gets home safely."

Yan Luo seemed puzzled, "Why?"

Nowadays things are so safe; even taxis are driverless, with routes planned by the city's AI. As long as there is no AI or onboard system failure, nothing could go wrong.

Wang Lingyu's ears turned red as she tugged on Yan Luo's arm, pulling him towards the door, "Let's go, let's go."

Yan Luo didn't resist, his muscles even relaxed; otherwise, Wang Lingyu wouldn't have been able to pull him.

Under a chorus of teasing gazes, Wang Lingyu and Yan Luo left the banquet hall.

As the door closed, Wang Lingyu immediately turned her head towards Yan Luo, "Yan Luo, where are you heading next? Going home?"

Yan Luo nodded, "The situation at the Forbidden Demon Abyss has stabilized, and we won't be facing demon attacks in the near future, so I don't need to rush back."

"That's good then." Wang Lingyu's face lit up with a smile, "Let's go."

Yan Luo followed Wang Lingyu to the building's rooftop taxi stop and got into a cab with her.

Guo Xu had instructed him to see Wang Lingyu home, so he followed through.

"Where's your place?" Wang Lingyu asked Yan Luo.

Yan Luo seemed slightly puzzled, but he still replied, "I'll take you home first."

Wang Lingyu shook her head, staring decisively into Yan Luo's eyes, "No, tell me where your home is!"

With no other option, Yan Luo reluctantly gave his home address.

Wang Lingyu smiled, sending the address to the car's terminal.

The cab immediately started moving, heading towards Yan Luo's home.

At this point, Yan Luo couldn't help but ask his inner confusion, "Lingyu, aren't you going home?"

"Tonight, I'm staying at your place!"

Wang Lingyu, like a predator finally revealing its fangs, declared boldly, "Tonight, I want to have you!"

Yan Luo was completely baffled, "What does that mean?"

"It means I want to sleep with you!"

Even as her face glowed red with blush, Wang Lingyu clearly enunciated her words fully.

She looked at Yan Luo as if she were a starved tigress staring hungrily at a mouth-watering piece of meat, "Don't say something like, 'We aren't a couple yet.' I know you're not interested in relationships, but if I don't make the first move, you'll never respond to my feelings! Besides, I remember you saying you like assertive women. Well, I'm asserting myself enough now!"

Yan Luo remained silent. After a while, he seemed to resign himself with a sigh, turning his gaze to look out the window.

Tall buildings zipped by outside, drawing nearer to Yan Luo's home.

Seeing this response, Wang Lingyu's chest filled with elation and joy.

She immediately sent a message to her mother, telling her that she wouldn't be coming home tonight and instead would stay over at Yan Luo's place.

[Wish you all the best.]

Min Jinglan had no objections. She was very satisfied with Yan Luo, and if he were to become her son-in-law, she would be overjoyed.

Arriving at Yan Luo's home, Wang Lingyu asked about the bathroom's location.

Yan Luo pointed her to the bathroom and sat on the living room sofa, leaning back to stare at the ceiling.

He didn't know what he was thinking at the moment; maybe a myriad of thoughts, or perhaps nothing at all.

After a while, Yan Luo stood up, went into his room, and brought out a set of pajamas, telling Wang Lingyu he had placed them outside the bathroom door.

This time, Wang Lingyu took a long shower, almost half an hour, before stepping out of the bathroom in oversized pajamas, her hair dried and draping over her shoulders.

"You, you should freshen up too..."

With her head buried in her chest, Wang Lingyu murmured in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Yan Luo nodded slightly, entering the bathroom for a quick wash. Within minutes, he emerged.

Not finding Wang Lingyu in the living room, Yan Luo opened his bedroom door for a glance, seeing her already seated on the bed.

"Are you sure about this?" Yan Luo asked from the doorway.

Wang Lingyu quickly lifted her head, glaring sharply at Yan Luo, "Get in here already!"

She had mustered significant courage to make this decision; if Yan Luo asked any more, she wasn't sure she could hold firm.

Yan Luo stepped into the room, closing the door behind him.

......

"I can't take it anymore, please..."

"Are you not done yet?"

"It's been hours, give it a rest, please..."

"It's... it's almost dawn..."

"I'm getting thirsty, let me have a sip of water..."

With that, Wang Lingyu's eyes rolled back as she completely passed out.
