A mischievous smile played on Wang Jingyu's lips. Yu Xiaogang's miserable plight put him in an exceptionally good mood.

He summoned the Diary System and wrote down his thoughts.

Hahaha, Yu Xiaogang had truly humiliated himself beyond all redemption this time.

The Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City would never welcome him again.

No, perhaps it should be said that all of Suotuo City would never welcome him again.

Kissing everyone he saw in public, acting like a rabid dog... His exploits would probably spread throughout Suotuo City very quickly, wouldn't they?

After such a horrifying public death, the idea that he was a pervert would be deeply ingrained throughout Suotuo City.

Pitiful, truly pitiful. If this got back to his clan, Yu Yuanzhen would probably be so furious he'd suffer a brain hemorrhage.

I remember Yu Luomian had always been extremely dissatisfied with Yu Xiaogang.

If he found out, wouldn't he clamor every day to have this nephew expelled from the clan? Hahaha...

After finishing his rant, Wang Jingyu received a notification that his charm had increased by 1. He rolled his eyes at the reward.

Which idiot said the system was being generous today?

If you've got the guts, step forward. I promise I won't beat you to death!

Wang Jingyu took out the card storing his Gold Soul Coins from his storage space and headed toward the management office.

The match was about to begin, so he had to place his bets quickly.

Inside Liu Erlong's bedroom in the Heaven Dou Imperial Capital.

She was reading the Diary's latest entries, her heart in turmoil.

Who exactly had she offended? Why did she keep getting dragged into things while doing nothing?

She had already said that it was impossible for her to have any interest in Yu Xiaogang.

She absolutely was not some rabid dog like her cousin, so desperate that she would kiss anyone she saw.

Why did the Diary's writer always keep picking on her?

After returning to the Heaven Dou Imperial Capital, she had originally wanted to visit the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and beat Yu Xiaogang up.

But according to her father, Yu Xiaogang had been seriously injured and sent to the Ye Family for treatment.

Later, she heard that once Yu Xiaogang had recovered, he had impatiently left, leaving her unable to find him even if she wanted to beat him up.

It enraged her so much that she nearly ran straight to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to search for him.

Now things were perfect. The Diary said that Yu Xiaogang was in Suotuo City.

In that case, she would make a trip to Suotuo City herself and properly greet this cousin she had never met!

Of course, that was not her only goal. She had now learned from the Diary that this cousin was a pervert who swung both ways.

No matter what, she had to find proof herself. Once she found it, she would immediately return home and hand the evidence over to her father.

A good-for-nothing like him, who corrupted public morals and disregarded the clan's reputation, had no right to remain in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

Likewise, she would use these actions to prove to that mysterious Diary writer that her fate was absolutely not something others could decide.

She would never fall in love with her cousin in this life, and she never would. Her fate could only be decided by herself!

Having made up her mind, Liu Erlong spoke to her father and mother.

She said that she wanted to leave home and travel for a while to clear her mind, hoping they would agree.

Yu Luomian readily agreed to his daughter's request.

After all, she had been gloomy ever since returning home.

Even during meals, she would sit to one side with her head tilted, staring blankly into space. And after spacing out, she would become restless and agitated, as though possessed.

Time and again, he had invited Healing Spirit Masters to their home to check whether there was something wrong with his daughter's mind.

But after more than a dozen Healing Spirit Masters examined her, they all said she was fine and that it was probably a matter of the heart.

The heart's ailments required their own remedy, so there was nothing they could do.

Watching his beautiful daughter frequently become anxious and restless as though she had gone mad, Yu Luomian was frantic with worry.

But what could he do? He was helpless.

Still, Yu Luomian was not the sort to simply swallow a loss.

After returning to the clan, he reported the entire matter to his elder brother Yu Yuanzhen and the three elders.

His grandnephew, Yu Xiaolou, had been beaten by his grandfather with a club as thick as a rolling pin until he howled in pain.

It was said that both his legs had been broken, and he had been confined for three years.

Yu Luomian was still dissatisfied with that punishment.

In his view, even if his grandnephew had been beaten to death, it would not have made up for the psychological trauma his daughter had suffered.

Now that his daughter wanted to go out and clear her mind, of course he would not refuse. He hoped she could recover as soon as possible.

Thus, Liu Erlong immediately boarded a carriage and hurried from the Heaven Dou Imperial Capital to Suotuo City.

Completely unaware of all this, Wang Jingyu watched Bibi Dong defeat her tenth opponent on the arena stage with a worried expression.

She had once again maintained her winning streak today, which should have been a cause for great celebration.

Unfortunately, the Great Soul Arena could not afford to play anymore. They only allowed him to bet 50,000 Gold Soul Coins on each match.

At the pitifully low odds of 1.08, after deducting his stake, he could only earn 4,000 Gold Soul Coins per match. To him, that was practically nothing.

After stepping down from the arena, Bibi Dong skipped all the way over to him.

"Jingyu, what's wrong? You earned so much today. Why do you still look so unhappy?"

"What else could it be? The odds are so low now, and they're heavily restricting how much I can bet. It's getting more and more boring."

Wang Jingyu pursed his lips in frustration and put away his Gold Soul Coins.

"You're just greedy beyond measure. You've already earned so much money. What more do you want?

"Let me tell you, the Great Soul Arena has already spoken with Chrysanthemum Elder. As long as I win a hundred matches in a row, they'll make an exception and award me the Golden Douluo Badge."

"A hundred matches? Including today's ten, you should already have over eighty, right? Then won't you reach a hundred the day after tomorrow?"

Wang Jingyu was stunned. This girl was far too formidable.

"That's right, the day after tomorrow. So I'll be returning to Spirit Hall soon..."

Bibi Dong hesitated, her gaze toward Wang Jingyu carrying emotions too complicated to name, leaving his heart in disarray.

Wang Jingyu did not know what he was thinking either. After letting out an awkward laugh, he said,

"Well then, congratulations. Didn't you come to the Great Soul Arena for this Golden Douluo Badge?"

"Mhm, thank you." Bibi Dong nodded and pressed her red lips together.

"Jingyu, can you promise me something?"

"Since we're fellow townsfolk, let alone one thing, even a hundred things would be no problem."

Wang Jingyu patted his chest with feigned boldness, yet knowing that she would return to Spirit City in two days left him with an unpleasant feeling.

"Then it's settled. When I return to Spirit City, come with me. With you by my side, I'll feel safer..."

At that, Bibi Dong lowered her head with a blush, not daring to look at Wang Jingyu.
