Chen Fan looked at her, suppressing the turmoil in his heart as he smiled. "Yes. It's a connection that lets us stay closely linked."

"Really?"

Na'er's Eyes lit up.

Almost skipping with joy, she stepped closer again, reached out, and carefully grasped the corner of Chen Fan's clothes.

Such a simple touch alone filled her with unprecedented satisfaction and happiness.

She tilted her head up, her pure Purple Eyes shimmering with tears, brimming with inexpressible emotion and attachment.

"I really like... this connection."

Seeing the Maiden's touching appearance, Chen Fan's heart softened.

The next instant.

A brand-new system notification appeared directly before his eyes.

[Detected Bonding Target "Gu Yuena" current satisfaction level: Off the charts!] [Mission completion rate: 200%! Exceeded expectations!] [Calculating double rewards... Calculation complete!] [Congratulations, Host. First Soul Ring Years increased by 500 years!]

Chen Fan's breathing stopped.

I just agreed to be Na'er's boyfriend and said a couple of nice things.

The mission completion rate was 200%, and the reward directly doubled?

Chen Fan's mind buzzed.

"Come on, man, is this right?"

He asked inwardly without thinking.

It felt far too unreal.

He thought of Ning Rongrong.

When the two of them had first gotten together, the first mission released by the system had been to make Ning Rongrong personally cook him a meal without anyone else's help.

It had been such a simple mission.

Yet after a whole month of coaxing, pleading, sweet-talking, and tricking her, along with countless Gold Soul Coins spent on gifts, he had finally gotten that young lady to reluctantly enter the kitchen—only for her to nearly set the house on fire.

The mission completion rate had barely reached 60%.

The reward had been a pitiful thirty-year increase to his First Soul Ring Years.

But now?

Na'er had merely grabbed the corner of his clothes and looked at him with eyes full of love, and he had directly received five hundred years of Soul Ring Years!

In terms of personality, Ning Rongrong's spoiled arrogance could not compare to even one toe of Na'er's gentleness and thoughtfulness.

In terms of talent, one had the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, while the other was the Silver Dragon King... Was there even any comparison?

And when it came to how well they treated him, the difference was like cloud and mud.

One was an ancestor he constantly had to coax and indulge.

The other was a girl whose whole heart and eyes were filled with him, as though she wished she could place the entire world before him.

A wave of bitterness suddenly rose in Chen Fan's heart.

What kind of life had I been living before?

Just then, Na'er seemed to sense the joy in his heart.

She raised that breathtaking Little Face, her purple Eyes sparkling as she looked at him.

The next second.

She released the corner of his clothes, opened her arms, and threw herself into his embrace without hesitation.

A warm, soft body crashed into his arms.

The Maiden's body was unbelievably soft, carrying a faint fragrance as she pressed tightly against him.

Chen Fan could clearly feel her exquisite curves, the astonishing elasticity transmitted through their clothes, and the heart pounding wildly in her chest from excitement.

Na'er buried her face deeply in his chest, wrapped both arms around his waist, and held him tightly, with all her strength. Like a little beast that had found its nest, she greedily drank in his scent.

Chen Fan's heart stirred, and he instinctively reached out and embraced her as well.

Just then, he felt a soft little hand gently patting his back in a steady rhythm, as though soothing a wronged child.

By his ear came Na'er's soft voice, filled with heartache.

"It must have been hard, being with her."

Chen Fan's body suddenly stiffened.

Those days with Ning Rongrong—the arguments, the grievances, the moments of utter exhaustion—flashed through his mind like scenes from a movie.

He had thought he no longer cared.

But it turned out that fatigue had always been piling up in the depths of his heart, never truly fading away.

And now, there was someone who could see through all his exhaustion.

And feel pain for him.

"From now on, you have me." Na'er's voice came out muffled from within his arms.

Chen Fan's eyes grew hot beyond his control.

His nose stung.

Men did not shed tears easily, only because they had not yet reached the point of heartbreak.

But he wanted to cry now—not because he was sad, but because...

At last, someone was willing to cross mountains of thorns just to find him.

Dating Ning Rongrong really had been exhausting.

Chen Fan could not help sighing inwardly. Why had he not realized it sooner?

Why had he not thrown himself into Na'er's...

"...into my arms sooner, wouldn't that have been better?"

In a corner Chen Fan could not see, a dark glint flashed deep within Na'er's pure Purple Eyes as she buried her face against his chest.

She had been enduring it all along.

Enduring the fact that this man belonged to someone else.

Enduring the torment of having nowhere to place her love.

She had even had to smile and help him come up with plans, teaching him how to make that spoiled Princess happy.

Every time she saw Chen Fan exhausted and troubled because of Ning Rongrong, her heart bled. The desire to take him away and lock him at her side forever had nearly devoured her.

Now.

Finally.

The clouds had parted, and the moon had emerged.

This man was hers.

And he could only be hers.

Na'er was wild with joy as she savored this hard-won tenderness.

"Mm... mm..." The Maiden hummed softly, letting out a satisfied sound.

A brilliant flash of light streaked across Chen Fan's vision!

[Ding! Detected that the Host and Bonding Target have established a relationship. Emotional intensity has reached its peak!] [Random reward triggered!] [Mission type: Time-limited reward mission] [Mission name: One-Day Lover] [Mission content: Over the next day (twenty-four hours), interact with Girlfriend "Gu Yuena" and continuously raise her favorability.] [Mission reward: Calculated according to the final peak favorability reached.] [Special note: This is the first time this type of mission has been triggered. The final reward will receive an additional bonus! Every time an interaction raises favorability to a new historical high, a "breakthrough" bonus will be awarded!]

One-Day Lover?

He thought of Ning Rongrong.

Back then, the system had also issued a similar three-day time-limited mission.

The reward from that time had permanently repaired one innate flaw in his Crimson Scale Dragon Martial Soul.

The effect had been outstanding.

This time, although the time had been shortened to just one day, the target was Na'er.

With Na'er's favorability toward him, she should be much easier to win over than Ning Rongrong, right?

Fixing another flaw should not be a problem.

After all, his Crimson Scale Dragon Martial Soul was merely an ordinary dragon type, not even comparable to the inherited Martial Soul of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

There had to be more than one innate flaw.

As Chen Fan calculated inwardly and prepared to consider how to raise Na'er's favorability to the limit within these twenty-four hours, suddenly—

[Warning! Detected Bonding Target 'Gu Yuena' favorability overflow!] [Emotional intensity has broken through the critical threshold! It has reached the "deeply rooted love" level!] [Due to the Host's action of establishing the relationship just now, the excess reward mechanism has been triggered!] [Issuing reward...]
