Quick Transmigration: The main focus is on speed.

By chance, the original owner encountered Liu Ruyan, who was getting rained on. Looking at the small Liu Ruyan, the original owner's heart was stirred, and only one thought came to mind: I want to get to know her.

At this moment, the original owner did not know that the girl already had someone in her heart. No matter how hard he tried, he would eventually become a stepping stone on their road to love and regret it for the rest of his life.

"I proposed to you in public like a fool, and here you are flirting with someone else..."

"Are you sure you're not just enjoying the ambiguous relationship between you and your childhood sweetheart? Watching you two talk in a way I can't understand and in topics I can't join in on, shouldn't I be the one who's annoyed as your boyfriend?"

"Please, please keep your distance from him..."

"How could I not care? There's no such thing as pure friendship between men and women!"

One sentence after another, time and time again, the original owner kept backing down and compromising, until finally there was nowhere left to retreat, and he fell into the abyss.

"Now, please welcome our bride and groom!" As soon as the emcee finished speaking, the banquet hall doors opened, and everyone's attention was drawn to the newcomers.

"Qin Shou? What's he doing here? Isn't he abroad?" The guests whispered among themselves, completely baffled by Qin Shou's arrival.

"Come with me!" Qin Shou spotted Liu Ruyan in her wedding dress, who was about to walk down the aisle. He strode through the crowd to her, took her hand, and said.

"Qin Shou?!" The moment Liu Ruyan saw Qin Shou, her eyes were filled with surprise. The thing she had been looking forward to for so long had finally happened. She stared at Qin Shou's profile and followed him out of the wedding venue.

The two showed no intention of keeping a low profile; as if they were acting out an idol drama, they ran out of the hotel without driving or taking a taxi, holding hands as they ran forward.

Soon, the video of the man abducting the bride and the bride running away became a trending topic.

The two instantly became internet sensations, jokingly referred to by netizens as the "runaway couple." Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou capitalized on this surge in popularity, becoming online celebrities themselves.

The original owner had long felt that the two were not as simple as the good friends they claimed to be. She had a premonition about Qin Shou's wedding snatching and Liu Ruyan's elopement. Although she was angry, she was too lazy to argue with them. In the original owner's opinion, the relationship had already run into problems, and it was better to end it quickly than to suffer for a long time.

The original owner let the two adulterers go, but they did not let the original owner go.

After becoming internet celebrities, when asked why they ran away from their wedding that day, the two first made heartfelt confessions to each other, and then recounted how the original owner had sown discord and interfered in their relationship.

In their eyes, the original owner became a vicious and stupid third party. If it weren't for their deep and passionate love, they probably would have broken off all ties and never spoken to each other again because of the original owner's meddling.

The original owner became a modern-day male mistress, and was quickly doxxed by netizens, becoming a universally hated mistress.

Life isn't an idol drama; there are no cameras or recorders documenting their lives 24/7. The original owner had no evidence and, unable to defend herself, went abroad.

Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou achieved financial freedom by becoming internet celebrities.

It's often said that love becomes pure when one is financially independent. This saying is perfectly exemplified in this couple, whose daily displays of their love on social media have attracted a large following.

But no one knew that on the streets of a foreign land, the original owner met Li Mengqi and realized that their beautiful love had relied entirely on them as stepping stones to prove how well-suited and compatible they were to each other...

Now that things have come to this, Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou have become internet celebrities with millions of followers. For the two of them, who are in a foreign country, to seek justice and tear off their masks is an extremely difficult task, and they could easily be destroyed.

As expected, their remarks went unnoticed online. Not only did Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou respond, but their fans also treated it as a joke.

What a joke! Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan are childhood sweethearts, how could he possibly be the kind of person they're describing? It must be jealousy...

Later, Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan got married and had children, transitioning from couple bloggers to husband-and-wife bloggers and stay-at-home dads and moms bloggers, living a happy life.

Every time a video is posted, it's like a slap in the face to the original owner and Li Mengqi, mocking their blindness back then.

"If we had been braver back then, we wouldn't have missed each other for so many years and wasted so much of our precious time. We would probably be much happier..."

Listening to the videos the two posted on social media, the original owner felt that all her sincerity had been wasted.

When Qi Yuan arrived, he had not yet met Liu Ruyan, and even Li Mengqi had not yet appeared in Qin Shou's life; the timing was just right.

My fingers typed the last word on the keyboard, and the mouse kept pasting and sending it to various group chats.

Sigh, Qi Yuan's hands must have been worn out trying to test Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan's love. I wonder if they'll thank him after they get married.

While Qi Yuan was still lost in thought, the message notifications started going off like crazy. It seemed that these people really had a lot of demand. After some deliberation, Qi Yuan chose a brother and sister. The brother's name was Chen Nansheng, and the sister's name was Chen Beisheng.

After determining the sexual orientation of the brother and sister, Qi Yuan sent them Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan's information and taught them how to win each other's hearts.

Don't think that Qi Yuan's actions constitute fraud. He pursued her earnestly, and he didn't care about love or anything like that. Aren't Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan also greedy and always wanting more? It's just that they don't love the siblings, and the siblings don't love them either. There's no conflict, isn't that better?

"Dress youthfully, have long, straight black hair, and look innocent, confused, and bewildered in your eyes when you look at Qin Shou. Practice in front of the mirror a lot..." With Qi Yuan's instruction, Chen Beisheng was practically taking an open-book exam, the kind where the proctor had already prepared the answers for you. As long as you copied them down, you were guaranteed a perfect score.

In less than a week, Qin Shou was successfully won over by Chen Beisheng.

It's no wonder Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan are so strange. In their past lives, they dated so many boyfriends/girlfriends, yet they never had sex with any of them. Call it conservative or whatever, they seemed to be keeping themselves pure for each other.

Chen Beisheng is now facing the same situation, but who is Chen Beisheng? She doesn't like men at all, and she longs for Qin Shou's platonic love for her without any complaints.

Unlike his previous girlfriends, Chen Beisheng's distanced nature successfully caught Qin Shou's attention. People are naturally drawn to novelty and new experiences, and before long, he developed feelings for Chen Beisheng.

While she could attend to one thing, she couldn't attend to the other. Every time Liu Ruyan called Qin Shou, she was told he was "busy," which immediately made the already sensitive Liu Ruyan realize that something was wrong.

After failing to meet him for the fifth time, Liu Ruyan went to his door and saw Qin Shou pinning Chen Beisheng against the wall, their lips so close together that it seemed they were about to kiss.

This was the first time Liu Ruyan had ever seen a girl other than herself interacting so intimately with Qin Shou. She felt a pang of pain in her heart and instinctively called out Qin Shou's name.

"Qin Shou." The two turned their heads at the same time. Qin Shou was interrupted by the sudden voice. His brows furrowed and his eyes were full of impatience. When he saw that it was Liu Ruyan, his expression was obviously stunned, but he did not withdraw his hand from the wall.

"You must be Sister Ruyan? I've often heard Qin Shou mention you..." Chen Beisheng had just been suppressing her physical discomfort and hadn't pushed Qin Shou away, since he would be her shield in the future, so it was better to endure it if she could. Now, seeing Liu Ruyan's arrival, Chen Beisheng felt as if Liu Ruyan had descended to earth like an angel, rescuing her, this poor little thing.

Qin Shou frowned even more when he saw Chen Beisheng run away from him as soon as he saw Liu Ruyan and affectionately take her arm. He was secretly annoyed that Liu Ruyan had come at the wrong time.

"I've come at the wrong time and disturbed you." As Liu Ruyan said this, she looked at Qin Shou. Seeing Qin Shou nod subconsciously, her breath caught in her throat, and her heart ached terribly.

"What are you saying? Sister Ruyan, it's always a good time for you to come. Sister Ruyan, you're so beautiful. Why is your skin so good? What perfume are you wearing, Sister Ruyan?..." Chen Beisheng couldn't help but want to get closer to any pretty girl he saw. Although he already knew about Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou's relationship through Qi Yuan, after seeing how beautiful Liu Ruyan was and how she saved him from danger, Chen Beisheng became much more enthusiastic than usual.

"Bei Sheng, don't scare Ru Yan. Besides, you're my girlfriend. Why are you being so intimate with Ru Yan? Come over here!" Qin Shou couldn't help but feel jealous as he watched Chen Bei Sheng and Liu Ru Yan getting closer and closer.

"Hey, Qin Shou, we've known each other for over ten years, and I never knew you were jealous of me. What's wrong with me being a little closer to Bei Sheng? Do you really want my Bei Sheng to become an enemy?" As Liu Ruyan said this, she leaned closer to Chen Bei Sheng to annoy Qin Shou.

"Alright, what do you need me for? If not, Beisheng and I will be leaving now. We can talk another day!" Qin Shou pulled Chen Beisheng, who looked satisfied, away without giving Liu Ruyan another glance.

Liu Ruyan watched the two figures leave. Qin Shou didn't look back at her once the whole time, but Chen Beisheng kept turning back to provoke her.

Chen Beisheng: Was I flirting? You were really flirting with a blind man!

Back home, Liu Ruyan tossed and turned in bed, her mind racing, imagining what the two of them had done and what had happened. Why was it that she, who had known Qin Shou for over ten years, couldn't have him, while someone she'd only known for a short time could?

Seeing how warm and affectionate Qin Shou was towards Chen Beisheng, Liu Ruyan felt that it was time to end the years she had remained chaste for him.

After putting on makeup and wearing a miniskirt, Liu Ruyan went to a bar alone in the middle of the night. She refused to believe that she couldn't find a man better than Qin Shou.

"You've seen the photos. Even though she's wearing makeup, she hasn't changed much. I'm sure you can recognize her. Remember what I said: she likes being strung along, she doesn't like being a simp. You have to both torment and love her, and use PUA tactics on her, for her to be truly devoted to you..."

Before going on stage, Chen Nansheng listened to Qi Yuan's final instruction much more attentively than ever before.

Chen Beisheng walked to the bar and sat down with one hand in his pocket. To his left was Liu Ruyan, who was drinking alone in silence.

"A LANG ISLAND ICE TEA." After saying that, Chen Beisheng tapped the table with his left and right fingers alternately, without even looking at Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ruyan was drawn to Chen Beisheng's voice and heard Qin Shou's frequent order of Long Island Iced Tea. She couldn't help but recall the movie they had watched together. The male and female protagonists in the movie liked to have a Long Island Iced Tea after get off work, which Qin Shou, who always loved to show off, had picked up.

No matter how much I can drink, I'll always say something like, "LANG ISLAND ICE TEA, THANK YOU," as I say when I get to a bar.

Qin Shou, who didn't know Long Island Iced Tea was a strong liquor the first time he drank it and thought it was tea, was quite embarrassed after drinking too much of it. After that, every time he ordered it, he would just leave it there as a tool to show off.

"Tap, tap, tap..." The rhythmic tapping of fingers on the table reminded Liu Ruyan of Qin Shou. Qin Shou would unconsciously tap the table whenever he was bored, and she was very similar to him in this respect.

Originally unwilling to accept defeat, Liu Ruyan, after drinking too much, saw someone who looked remarkably like Qin Shou and subconsciously mistook Chen Nansheng for Qin Shou, so she clung to him.

"Qin Shou, what brings you here? Aren't you supposed to be with your girlfriend?" His voice was noticeably stern.
