Being hugged by comforted by her, Lu Ting laughed and asked, “For you to hold me like this, can I take this as proof that you like me?”

“……” Lin Yueqi immediately let go of him and said with a blushing face, “Old Lu, be reasonable. It was just a brotherly—” hug.

Before she could finish her words, the man leaned over and kissed down on her lips.

His lips covered over hers, the touch cool and soft, just like touching a piece of jelly.

Lin Yueqi’s eyes went wide and her heart was beating extremely fast. As she was fumbling over where to put her hands, Lu Ting took them in his own.

The man’s palms were hot, and the temperature made her feel safe.

This was her second kiss with Old Lu in her memories. Last time was an accident so it didn’t count, so this was her first…First kiss.

The meaning of this kiss was different from last time. Lu Ting was the one taking the initiative. This ambiguous expression between man and woman was…She could no longer think about any meaning in this kiss. Her mind was completely blank…

Just as she was about to push Lu Ting away, the man moved his lips away and hugged her tightly again.

Just like a child, he buried his face into the nook of her shoulder and spoke with his voice heavy with emotion, “Don’t push me away. Just take it as your gift to me, okay?”

For some reason, Lin Yueqi’s heart hurt from hearing his request. She clutched at her chest and rubbed it. It felt stuffy and painful.

She seemed to be able to feel all the negative emotions feeling from Old Lu at the moment.

As if possessed, she reached out her hand and hugged him, patting his shoulder. “Alright.”

Lu Murou had fallen into a dead end. No matter how she tried, even through Old Lu, she couldn’t separate the two of them.

She felt her head ache. She understood herself that if she didn’t break them up soon, then sooner or later, she would suffer another attack from the system.

So far, she had been punished with things like “eating shit”, and “eating vomit”. She couldn’t imagine having to bear such a heavy punishment merely with them developing some faint good feelings. What if they actually got together? How much would her system be attacked? And what kind of punishment would she have to suffer?

At that moment, she received a new punishment in her ear.

“Ding ding~ The male and female lead kissed and embraced, generating 10 points of love. The system suffered a heavy attack, the system suffered a heavy attack. You are about to receive a new punishment. The system will randomly select 70% of people and tamper with their impression of Swallow Canteen. Their good impression of the food will change to ‘like shit and vomit’ impression. if you want to reverse this, please break up the male and female leads as soon as possible~”

The second the system prompt ended, Li Murou’s world fell apart.

At the same time, the people all over the country who had been picked and had eaten Li Murou’s food woke up from their nightmares.

The memories they had of the delicious food were tampered with, and they now remembered it as disgusting. They couldn’t stand the nausea and began to gag.

Director Zhang Zhen was also one of those chosen. He was suddenly woken up from a nightmare and began heaving when he remembered Li Murou’s food.

After vomiting, he had the constant feeling that something was wrong, but he wasn’t sure where. Looking through his blog, he felt as if he had been hit in the head.

Li Murous’ food had already cast a psychological shadow on his face. How could he have praised dark cuisine like that?

But why did he do that? He scratched his head. He couldn’t remember why.

He deleted every single post about Li Murou and then looked through Film Emperor Li Xiujie’s account, immediately giving him a phone call.

When the man received his call, he was very surprised. Frowning he said, “Director Zhang, what are you talking about? I don’t know why you’re suddenly smearing Murou and I don’t want to know. If you call me again to talk badly about Murou, then I’m sorry but I’ll just pretend I don’t know you.”

After saying that, he hung up.

It had been a long time since Li Xiujie went to Swallow Canteen. He immediately called Li Murou’s assistant and booked a slot for tomorrow afternoon.
