Big socks! Do you even understand how you kiss a villain?

"I... I'm going to wait for my brother to come find me."

Four-year-old Zuo You probably remembers the way home, but only during the day.

Now that it's dark, everything in the neighborhood looks different from what she remembers.

"Then I'll be going now." Shen Yan pursed his lips, hoisted the snakeskin bag onto his shoulder, and walked forward with difficulty.

Her home is in this neighborhood, no one will bully her, he doesn't need to worry about her, anyway they don't know each other.

Shen Yan walked more than ten meters away and looked back. She was still standing there obediently. When she saw him turn around, she waved to him and gave him a sweet smile.

"Brother, why are you back?" Zuo You was both happy and puzzled to see him return.

Shen Yan frowned like a little adult: "It's not safe for you to be here alone. I'll take you to the gatekeeper."

“Okay~” Zuo You happily followed behind him.

This older brother was much taller than her brother and spoke gently; she liked him.

Zuo You took out some money from her bag and handed it to him: "Brother, I want to eat candy. Buy two, one for each of us, okay?"

Shen Yan glanced at it; it was five yuan, enough to buy many pens.

He put the bag off his shoulder, pointed, and said, "The convenience store is over there. Go in and buy it yourself. I'll wait for you at the door."

Zuo You nodded excitedly, clutched the money, and ran inside.

A moment later, she excitedly ran out, carrying candy in her skirt, her joyful eyes making Shen Yan feel a little envious.

He looked down and counted them; there were twelve in total. These filled candies cost five cents each, and the shopkeeper even gave her two extra.

"Brother, here you go!" Zuo You lifted her skirt with one hand and grabbed a handful of candy with the other and handed it to him.

Shen Yan stared blankly at the candy. He hated candy the most; in his eyes, it was the most useless thing. What he needed was money.

But today's sugar seems a little different from what others are making.

Zuo You looked at him in confusion: "Brother, hurry up and take it. My mom said I can only eat one a day. I'll give you the rest."

This was the first time she had ever realized that one coin could buy so many candies; her brother had only ever been able to buy one before.

Shen Yan silently refused, gripping the bag tightly with both hands, refusing to look into those innocent eyes.

Zuo You was not discouraged and stubbornly stuffed the candies into his pocket little by little, then thought for a moment and kept two for herself.

Her brother ate the one from yesterday, so she should be fine eating two today.

Before long, Shen Yan led her to the guardhouse, where the uncle on duty stared at the outsider child with a wary look.

Little Shen Yan silently took the candy out of his pocket, placed it on the table, and disappeared into the night with the bag.

"It's been two whole days, why hasn't she woken up yet!"

Beside the hospital bed in the villa, Shen Yan, with a bluish-gray tinge in his eyes, sat in a chair, his knuckles white from excessive exertion.

Dr. Li didn't know how to answer either. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. All the tests had been done, and there were no problems, but the person just wouldn't wake up.

Even during the two days she was in a coma, her condition was no different from that of a normal person, and he really couldn't figure out what was wrong.

"Young Master, please don't be too anxious. Perhaps Miss Zuo really is just asleep, just sleeping for a rather long time..."

Dr. Li couldn't continue speaking, saying, "Who in their right mind can sleep for two days straight?"

"It's alright, the experts will be here soon, she'll wake up in no time, she's just asleep..."

Shen Yan's murmured voice rang out. Dr. Li looked in the direction of the sound and saw Shen Yan holding her hand against his face, his expression obsessive and crazed.

Inside the five-star hotel on the other side.

Eros squinted, looking at his nominal "sister" with a curious gaze.

In just a few days, she seemed to have undergone a complete transformation. The deep, bone-revealing scars on her face had healed, and even her facial features had changed, making her completely different from when she was first seen.

It's unlikely to be plastic surgery in such a short time, but what other methods could have changed her so drastically besides plastic surgery?

Eros couldn't understand it, but he didn't care much. Anyway, he had other purposes in coming to China, and he couldn't be bothered with people who weren't related to him.

“Eros, if you want to stay in China safely until you achieve your goal, you’d better hide what you’re wearing on your hands.”

Su Wan met his gaze and made a suggestion in a humble yet assertive manner.

Eros smiled, removed the necklace from his neck, revealing the pale yellow shinbone that bore the marks of time. He dangled the necklace in front of her and chuckled.

"You seem to know everything, so can you tell what this is made of?"

Su Wan answered almost without hesitation: "Human bones."

"Heh, you do have good taste." Eros chuckled at her meaningfully, then hooked the necklace and left the room.

After the man left, Su Wan dropped her ingratiating expression and went to the full-length mirror.

She has a beautiful face, with flawless skin and a curvaceous figure. No one would associate her with the inhuman or ghostly image she had just appeared a few days ago.

Recalling the more than a year of wandering, Su Wan sneered at herself in the mirror: "Shen Yan, Zuo You, are you ready to welcome my arrival?"

[Host, insufficient points detected. Please start the strategy mission immediately.]

The system notification sounded in her mind again. Su Wan calmly applied lipstick and said softly, "Close all A-level missions. I want to focus on conquering SSS-level missions."

[An SSS-level target mission has been selected as requested by the host, with a one-year deadline. Failure to complete it within the deadline will result in an SSS-level penalty.]

Inside the Twilight Bar.

Gu Yang looked at Yu Huan, who had ordered ten male models in one go, with a headache, and hesitated whether he should pretend to be a little jealous.

After signing the agreement with her last time, I don't know what she said to Mr. and Mrs. Yu, but the couple actually believed her.

Now, in the eyes of the Yu family, he is just a pretty boy that Yu Huan likes. Although he has no money, he is devoted to Yu Huan and doesn't dare to go out and mess around.

This suited the couple perfectly, and they stopped insisting on finding an easy son-in-law to live with them. They simply allowed Yu Huan to bring him back to the Yu family home for dinner every week.

Seeing that she had started drinking again, Gu Yang decided to go over and stop her.

However, he had only taken one step forward when a girl stumbled and ran over, accidentally bumping into him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" the girl apologized repeatedly, her eyes filled with remorse and helplessness after bumping into someone.

Gu Yang shook his head slightly and was about to walk past her and leave.

"Sir, could you please help me?" The girl hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, then quickly let go the second he looked over, her voice trembling with tears.

"Can you help me? I accidentally offended a drunkard, and he's coming to find me soon!"
