Little White Lotus’ Record of Courting Disaster

What was she doing?

She actually asked her what she was doing?

The strength in Ling Ya’s hands continued to increase, and her voice seemed to seep out from between her teeth, tinged with a hint of cracking. It sounded eerie in the darkness.

“Why didn’t you wait for me in the living room?”

Did she find arguing with her too tiring, so now she was giving her the silent treatment instead?

【Mission objective: Decrease in favorability -10, current favorability 52, WTF?】

Unable to hold back, Ling Ya cursed, and the system became infuriated. Damn, was there something wrong with this mission target? The host of this system hasn’t done anything, yet her favorability keeps decreasing? What’s the deal?!

Just when Ling Ya was going crazy, the favorability score changed again.

【Favorability +1, +1, +1, +1, …】

The crisp sound kept ringing without stopping.

Finally, the favorability value settled at 65.

System:…

Youyou:…

“Huh?”

Dazed by that string of sounds, but now fully awake, Youyou turned her eyes and tried to recall the woman’s words, feeling somewhat puzzled.

“I was tired. Why should I stay up late waiting for you?”

She wasn’t the old Bai Youyou, so why should she wait for her?

Yesterday, Bai Youyou waited for her, but didn’t her favorability decrease as well?

Feeling a bit confused, she furrowed her brows and, in the darkness, moved her body slightly, signaling Ling Ya to let go of her.

*Sniffle, sniffle, sniffle* She was hugged too tight, and she felt so uncomfortable.

Sensitive to the change in the girl, Ling Ya stared blankly and moved her hand away, feeling an inexplicable sense of panic in her heart.

Was it because she hadn’t been with her during this time and often upset her, so she was disappointed in her and didn’t want to bother with her anymore?

But she was also feeling so wronged, you know?

She worked hard in the company, practiced tirelessly, and tried desperately to gain recognition from others. Wasn’t it all to become a big star and give her a better life?

But what did she do? Not only did she not understand/support/trust her, but she would also argue with her over some inexplicable things and even suspect her of cheating?

No matter how she explained, she wouldn’t listen.

She knew very well that this person would be her burden, an incredibly sweet burden, but even if the burden was sweet, there was a limit to what she could bear.

“Youyou, can we make up, please? Can you stop doing this, okay?”

It hurt both herself and her.

“Huh?”

Unable to keep up with Ling Ya’s thoughts, Youyou nodded and said okay.

Although she didn’t know what was wrong with Ling Ya, Youyou was super tired.

Yawning, she buried her head back in the blanket. Curling up like a silkworm, it was clear that she had no intention of paying attention to Ling Ya anymore.

On the other hand, the system was still observing Ling Ya closely.

As the system observed this volatile task target, with a face that turned pale and then green, and green and then pale, its heart also clenched tightly.

Fortunately, the favorability rating didn’t undergo any significant changes during the night.

A restful night’s sleep.

The next day, when Youyou woke up, Ling Ya was no longer there.

Following the system’s reminder, Youyou saw the breakfast Ling Ya had made and the fridge filled with plenty of ingredients. Youyou squinted her eyes slightly, and her mood improved rapidly. “Xixi, are we going to that place today to paint?”

Taking a bite of the tender and delicious egg, Youyou’s pale pink lips instantly glistened with a thin layer of oil. Her bright and clear eyes blinked repeatedly. With a quick gulp, Youyou devoured the remaining eggs, and her puffy cheeks made her look like a groundhog.

[Sure, with money, we can take transportation to crowded places.]

“Mhmm,” Youyou nodded. She was now inexplicably interested in making money.

She didn’t want to go hungry again. That feeling was truly unbearable.

After finishing breakfast and cleaning the pots and bowls, Youyou dragged her toolbox and followed the system’s instructions to take the subway to a square in the city center.

She continued to paint at a rate of one painting every twenty minutes. From initially taking an hour and a half for one painting, she had now reduced it to forty minutes.

However, Youyou was completely unaware of her meticulous painting.

Her arrival attracted the attention of many people.

Dressed in simple white clothes and black pants, this innocent and young girl had a face that exuded a pure and innocent aura. Her flawless skin and delicate features could rival those of popular actresses in the entertainment industry. At this moment, she focused all her attention on the canvas in front of her, captivating everyone with her unwavering concentration and dedication.

Unbeknownst to Youyou, a number of infatuated boys and girls gathered around her, taking out their phones to record her painting. They then shared the footage on their social media accounts, such as WeChat moments and Weibo.

“This is probably what they mean by an unforgettable first love, right?”

A video and its title, posted by a well-known influencer, immediately caught the attention of many netizens. They instinctively clicked to play the video, and then…

“What the…?”

A rough-looking guy walking the streets in slippers: “I thought the blogger was just clickbaiting with the title, but damn, this little girl is so cute.”

“Cuteness overload! This girl has the epitome of a first love face.”

“OMG, she has such a first love face. I’m a girl, and I want to kiss her so badly! I want to be the pen in her hands. *covers face and runs away*”

“The person above is creepy. I just want to be her boyfriend and spoil her.”

“Am I the only one who noticed that the girl’s painting skills are at a master level?”

“I noticed it a long time ago. She’s amazing. I’ve been studying fine arts for ten years, and I can’t even compare to this little girl. Please, blogger, tell us her address. I want to question why she relies on talent when she could easily rely on her looks to make a living!”

…

And so on, the comments varied, with some being critical.

Some questioned if this was staged, claiming that the girl’s pretty face was the result of plastic surgery, and that she didn’t actually paint the artwork.

However, the blogger and numerous netizens quickly fired back at these comments.

In the blogger’s words: “I’m just sitting here on a little stool, not moving a muscle, looking like a fool, and letting this little girl paint. Even typing this comment is a blind hunt-and-peck effort. And you guys still dare to question if I’m staging it?! …Oh, the little girl is glaring at me again. She looks so good. Want a kiss?!”

Once this comment was posted, it quickly became the top comment.

Many people expressed that the blogger was truly despicable, sitting on a little stool and being stared at by the little girl, not allowing any movement. Just imagining it was cute and funny.

Meanwhile, unaware of her own development into an internet celebrity, Youyou glanced slightly towards the young and handsome boy sitting across from her.

In truth, she wanted to tell him that he could play with his phone if he wanted; it wouldn’t affect her ability to paint him. But it seemed like he was afraid of her…

Every time she looked at him, he would stiffen and wave his hand, blushing as he assured her it wasn’t intentional, that he wouldn’t move around anymore, and so on.

Youyou:……

How is it that she feels a bit dumber?
