Chapter 14: This Person is So Disgusting
Zhao Ling's blood boiled as he watched Bibi Dong interact with Yu Xiaogang. The thought of her meeting him earlier than expected left him fuming.
As he glared daggers at Yu Xiaogang, his expression murderous, Bibi Dong noticed his intense gaze. With her sharp intuition, she subtly glanced in his direction and spotted Zhao Ling standing with Ah Yin by his side.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and she casually discarded the blood-stained silk handkerchief on the ground. Turning on her heel, she walked gracefully back to the VIP section, her steps light as she chuckled inwardly.
'Yu Xiaogang, you're quite the useful tool,' she thought smugly.
Finally, she had seen Zhao Ling in person. To her surprise, his appearance and demeanor exceeded her expectations—refined, composed, and far better than Yu Xiaogang, whom she likened to a toad.

Yu Xiaogang, meanwhile, stared at the silk handkerchief on the ground as if it were a divine artifact. Hastily bending down, he picked it up, his eyes glued to Bibi Dong's retreating figure. A fiery intensity lit his gaze.
'She's not just breathtakingly beautiful—she's so gentle and kind.' His thoughts spiraled into a world of fantasy.
Smelling the faint, refreshing fragrance lingering on the silk handkerchief, Yu Xiaogang felt as though he were in heaven. His mind began racing.
'Why did she drop the handkerchief instead of handing it to me directly? Was she shy? Was she testing my attitude?'
Convinced he had unraveled her intentions, his chest swelled with emotion.
'If someone as stunning and kind as her likes me, what should I do? Should I accept her feelings? Or would that be too hasty?'
He gripped the handkerchief tighter, silently vowing to himself: 'If this angel truly loves me, I'll cherish her for the rest of my life. No matter what happens, I'll protect her happiness.'
Yu Xiaogang's ridiculous fantasies were on full display as he continued sniffing the handkerchief like a lovesick fool.
In the VIP section, Bibi Dong caught sight of his antics. Her elegant brow twitched in disgust.
'If it weren't for the blood on that handkerchief, I wouldn't have discarded it. But this…'
She couldn't believe Yu Xiaogang's behavior. He was openly sniffing the handkerchief with a dreamy expression, making himself look utterly revolting.
'This man is so oily,' she thought, her face darkening.
The realization that her future self would fall in love with someone like this made her skin crawl. She clenched her fists, resisting the urge to gouge her eyes out.
Zhao Ling's feelings were no better. Watching Yu Xiaogang's disgusting display ignited a deep urge to beat the man senseless. Yet, with the arena packed with spectators—and Spirit Hall members in attendance—he couldn't act impulsively.
Suppressing his fury, Zhao Ling opened his diary panel to vent:
[Yu Xiaogang is absolutely revolting. Sniffing Bibi Dong's handkerchief like that, with such a perverted expression, makes me want to punch him. The original story never mentioned he was such a creep.]
[Even after all my effort, I was too late. Bibi Dong has already met Yu Xiaogang, and their relationship is bound to develop from here.]
[Soon, they'll fall in love—a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung. I tried my best, Miss Bibi Dong, but fate seems determined to trap you in this tragic romance.]
[How pitiful. From an innocent girl to a cunning and ruthless woman, all because of this useless man.]
[Well, there's no use dwelling on it. If I can't win Bibi Dong over, I'll focus on Ah Yin instead. She's far more fragrant, anyway.]
Zhao Ling uploaded the entry, earning a system reward: Appearance +1 and Lifespan +10 years.
He raised an eyebrow in surprise. The system increasing his appearance was a new twist, but he wasn't complaining.
"Well, well," he mused, "if I'm not handsome enough, how will I attract the beautiful women of Douluo Continent?"

Bibi Dong, feeling smug after identifying Zhao Ling, sat back with her teacup in hand. She was about to take a sip when she noticed another diary update.
Her curiosity piqued, she accessed the virtual diary. But as her eyes scanned the new entry, her grip tightened on the cup, shattering it in her hand.
The Spirit Hall members nearby turned to her with puzzled expressions, unsure of what had just happened.
Bibi Dong's face darkened, her mood plunging. 'Does Zhao Ling have a screw loose?'
The words she'd read repeated in her mind: 'A flower stuck in cow dung.'
'When did this lady ever put flowers on cow dung? Even if Yu Xiaogang is cow dung, he's not worthy of me!'
Her anger deepened as she read that Zhao Ling had decided to pursue Ah Yin instead of her. 'How dare he? He said I looked better than Ah Yin, yet he's abandoning me for her?'
Her gaze snapped back to Yu Xiaogang, who was still sniffing the handkerchief with a blissful expression. Disgust welled up inside her. She stood abruptly, grabbed a nearby chair, and stormed toward him.
---
Yu Xiaogang remained lost in his fantasies. He imagined a future where he and Bibi Dong were together, basking in their happiness.
Unaware of the commotion, he didn't see Bibi Dong approach, chair in hand, until it was too late.
With a mighty leap, Bibi Dong smashed the chair over his head.
