Downstairs, Xia Yue Shan was staring at Lin Yu with a gloomy face. As time passed, his trust in the young man in front of him was dwindling.

Hadn't they agreed that his sister was in danger?

It's been a month and a half, and nothing has happened.

Could this young man be lying to him, wanting to freeload off his family and take advantage of his sister?

Under Xia Yue Shan's scrutinizing gaze, Lin Yu felt somewhat uncomfortable.

But at this point, he had other things to worry about.

He suddenly realized a serious problem.

In the original plot, Xia Mu Zhu was indeed raped, but now that he had taken so many preventative measures, had he unknowingly helped Xia Mu Zhu avoid this tragic fate?

Perhaps the plot had already been subtly altered by his actions, and the sexually explicit storyline that would bring Xia Mu Zhu unimaginable pain had been nipped in the bud.

But...

What if that event hadn't happened yet?

What if that unspeakable, eerie fate was just waiting for him to let his guard down?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu had a headache.

Damn it.

Not knowing whether the second explicit storyline had occurred or not, he dared not leave Xia Mu Zhu!

Wasn't this a trap?

It was fine for a short while.

But what about half a year later?

Or a year later?

He still had to go to college!

He couldn't possibly stay by Xia Mu Zhu's side forever.

Damn it!

If only there was a way to confirm whether that plotline had occurred or not.

Lin Yu gritted his teeth in frustration. Every time he thought about it, he felt aggrieved.

Damn it!

It was bad enough that he'd transmigrated into a pornographic manga.

But he didn't even have the standard cheat code for transmigrators.

At the very least, he should have been given some sort of spirit or something!

He was all alone.

This was too depressing.

Despite his frustration, problems still had to be solved one by one.

The first problem to be solved was the brat in front of him!

If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

He needed to find a way to continue earning his trust.

Under Xia Yue Shan's openly scrutinizing gaze, Lin Yu knew his temperament well and knew he couldn't back down. So, he returned a disdainful glance and asked with a displeased face:

"What are you looking at?"

"Is there a problem?"

Xia Yue Shan, a little devil, stroked his chin and nodded, saying:

"There is."

"Little Yu, you said my sister would encounter a disaster, but when exactly will it happen?"

"It's been a month and a half, and not only has she not been violated, she hasn't even been approached by a strange man within a meter."

"I'm not saying I don't believe what you're saying, but you should give me a rough timeline, right?"

"Don't wait until my sister is seventy or eighty years old, and then when she's touched by an old man, you tell me that's the disaster my sister is going to encounter."

"Heh."

Hearing Xia Yue Shan's sarcastic words, Lin Yu couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, and retorted:

"So you're implying that I'm a liar, huh?"

"Fine."

"Then I'm a liar, okay?"

"I don't care anymore."

"I'm leaving."

"I won't lie to you anymore, okay?"

"Whatever happens to your sister in the future has nothing to do with me."

"Goodbye."

With that, Lin Yu let out a scoff, turned around and was about to leave, taking large strides as if he was about to disappear into the darkness.

Lin Yu's resolute silhouette, however, had a hint of an undetectable confident smile on his face.

He knew Xia Yue Shan's temperament well, he wouldn't let him leave just like that. In less than five counts, he was sure to catch up and stop him.

5!

4!

3!

2!

1!!!

...

-1...

-2...

-3...

-4...

...

Just as he was about to turn the corner, Lin Yu felt like crying.

Damn it.

It seemed he had overplayed his hand.

What should he do now?

Would it be too embarrassing to just go back?

Should he give Xia Yue Shan the cold shoulder for a few days?

A thought popped into Lin Yu's mind.

Given Xia Yue Shan's current level of concern for Xia Mu Zhu, it wouldn't take more than a few days for him to come looking for him again.

But...

...if he gave him the cold shoulder for a few days, would that strange fate seize the opportunity to intervene?

Lin Yu was torn.

If his stubbornness now led to Xia Mu Zhu's demise, he wouldn't even have a place to cry.

In the blink of an eye, he had reached the turning point, and Lin Yu turned around.

Looking at the broken entrance of the Xing Yue community in the distance, he sighed softly in his heart.

Forget it.

He'd rather lose face.

Xia Mu Zhu was more important.

Not just because she was the second female lead in the pornographic manga, but also because of the close relationship they had developed over the past month and a half. He couldn't just stand by and let a tragedy occur.

Taking a deep breath and gathering his emotions, Lin Yu was about to turn around and go back with a big grin on his face when a voice, sounding like music to his ears, called out.

"Brother Lin Yu!"

"Wait!"

"Don't go!"

Hearing the immature voice of a boy who hadn't yet gone through puberty, Lin Yu almost burst into tears.

Stop calling me your brother.

From now on, you're my brother!

As Xia Yue Shan continued to call out, Lin Yu put on a cold face again, taking large strides towards the gate of the Xing Yue community.

"Wait!"

"Wait!"

Finally, just as Lin Yu was about to leave the Xing Yue community, Xia Yue Shan caught up. He put on a big grin and said:

"Don't be angry, Brother Lin Yu, I was just joking with you."

"Brother Lin Yu?"

"Who's your Brother Lin Yu?"

"Am I not a liar?"

Lin Yu asked, feigning confusion.

"No, no."

Xia Yue Shan smiled humbly, denying it and saying:

"How could my Brother Lin Yu be a liar?"

"Brother Lin Yu knows martial arts, can read faces, is kind-hearted and virtuous. My Brother Lin Yu is simply the best person in the world!"

"Heh!"

Lin Yu let out a cold laugh, but he didn't continue to ridicule Xia Yue Shan. Instead, he took the opportunity to say seriously:

"Xia Yue Shan, I actually understand how you feel."

"It's normal for you to have some doubts about what I've said since nothing has happened for so long."

"I also can't provide any evidence that your sister might be in danger to convince you."

"But if you look at things from a different perspective, you'll understand a lot."

"Assume, as you suspect, that I'm lying, that I'm a liar. Then what would be my motivation for doing so?"

"I must have a reason to lie, right?"

"Is it for money?"

"But I've only ever taken three thousand yuan from your sister, and I haven't touched a cent of it. I've also said that I'll give it to you after the matter is resolved, right?"

Xia Yue Shan nodded shamefully. He had first heard about the three thousand yuan from Lin Yu.

From this perspective, Lin Yu's reason for getting close to his sister was definitely not money.
