The latest message was from 15 minutes ago.

Goodness! Melon-sis was truly anxious.

He gave the messages a casual look and, as expected, they were all pointless follow-up questions.

"How did you find out?"

"Speak up!"

"Damn it! You're playing dead with me, huh?"

"Come out if you dare!"

"Brother Lie! I was wrong! Don't ask. If you ask, it means everything's wrong!"

"(Tears streaming)"

"Bro~~~ what are you doing?"

"Please, I'm begging you, give this kid a break!"

"AAAHHH! If I go crazy, it'll be all your fault!"

...

Han Lie read them with great interest but didn't empathize in the slightest; he just wanted to laugh.

However, the grand 'social death' plan wasn't ready yet; he still had to give her a reasonable explanation to calm her down.

After some thought, he replied with a hint.

"The recipient's name on the last delivery box."

Xi Luting, feeling imprisoned in her dorm room, heard the notification. She immediately lunged for her phone, opened it, and then SMACK! She slapped her thigh.

I'm so stupid!

Damn it, how could I have left such a huge vulnerability?

Actually, the vulnerability wasn't that big.

Back then, as soon as she received the delivery, Xi Luting had torn off the shipping label, crumpled it into a ball, and tossed it into the trash can.

The only time it could have possibly been exposed to Han Lie was during the few seconds she spent checking the acceptance information.

Hmm, three or four seconds at most.

Normally, no one would have thought of that.

But once Han Lie mentioned it, she became utterly convinced that those few seconds must have been the problem.

She typed shakily.

"So... you Baidu'd it online?"

"Mmm-hmm~~~ Baidu turned up something quite extraordinary..."

Shit!

Xi Luting buried her head in her pillow and pounded it fiercely. Because the bed wasn't long enough, she had to kneel there, bent over with her legs tucked under her.

Yu Yun instinctively pulled out her phone. CLICK. She took a picture and casually sent it to Han Lie.

"Brother Lie, are you chatting with Ting Ting?"

Whoa!

Han Lie's heart skipped a beat; he felt a primordial power awakening within him.

Then he began to two-time... no, that wasn't right, he began chatting on two fronts.

To Yu Yun: "Don't mess around. If she finds out, how do you want to die?"

To Xi Luting: "But I haven't finished reading it yet. Female-oriented fiction is too slow-paced. Did you write it?"

Yu Yun: "Well, since Big Brother doesn't like me anyway, I'm not afraid of anything now..."

Xi Luting's eyes lit up. She leaped up and furiously typed out a flurry of words.

"Though I didn't write it, I did participate, you know.

Just read it! It's really thrilling, honestly!

The angsty romance between the male and female leads is, in my opinion, the most heart-wrenching, epic love template! It combines the melodrama of K-dramas, the perversity of J-dramas, the refreshing simplicity of Thai dramas, and the unconventionality of V-dramas. It's an absolute masterpiece in the romance novel genre!

The original template for the female lead isn't me, but she's much cuter than I am!

Plus, the male lead is named Han Lieye! How's that for a coincidence?

If you read it, you'll definitely feel a strong connection..."

Wow!

To stop me from reading further, you're really going all out...

Han Lie gave Xi Luting's quick wit 99 points, docking one because he was afraid she'd get too proud.

Then he typed his reply, grinning.

"Now that you put it that way, I actually am a bit interested. Alright, I'll read a few more chapters when I have time."

Xi Luting: d(ŐдŐ)!!!

She leaned against the wall, her gaze vacant as she stared at her phone screen, completely petrified.

After a long moment, she flopped onto the bed like a log. THUD.

Her head ached, but her heart ached even more.

Why did my mouth have to run off like that?!

And you, you dog of a man! What kind of pervert are you exactly?!!!

She felt the world turn gray, staring blankly, her face half-pressed against the bed, not wanting to move a muscle.

Her whole body seemed to be written over with four large characters that screamed: Life is no longer worth living.

Yu Yun was extremely puzzled.

After a moment's thought, she risked taking a second photo and sent it.

"Brother Lie, was this your doing?"

Han Lie opened the photo and PFFT! A mouthful of noodle soup sprayed out.

Across from him, Ding Ding slowly raised her head, revealing an expression identical to that of a little cucumber...
