Meanwhile, on the other side of the story.
"Dragon King, Dragon King, this Elder Zhang is considering arranging a marriage for his granddaughter. If we can establish a good relationship with the Zhang family in the capital, our future prospects will be limitless!!!"
"With their support, perhaps we can bring the Dragon King Hall back to the mainland."
Ma Qun excitedly shared his thoughts.
A glint of fervor flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.
That Zhang Naixi had a rather 'ordinary' appearance.
Forget about leveraging the Zhang family's influence.
Just based on her looks and figure alone,
Lin Fan was already captivated.
Who could resist a charming and appetizing, larger-than-life goddess-type beauty?
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly, signaling Ma Qun to calm down.
"Starting tonight, all the talented young elites attending this banquet will be my competitors."
"There's pressure, but I already have some ideas in mind."
"It all depends on whether my guess is correct."
Lin Fan wanted to bet that Zhang Hong had issues with his legs.
Money and connections meant little to Zhang Hong.
What mattered most was curing his ailment.
At the moment, Lin Fan was only about 60% sure that Zhang Hong had trouble with his legs.
As for whether it was true or not,
he would need to keep observing.
Or perhaps find an opportunity to ask the man directly!
Simple, convenient, and effective.
The thought of someone being ill had never burned so intensely in Lin Fan's heart before!
No matter what the illness was,
he could diagnose and treat it to some extent.
If all else failed,
he could always contact his master.
Once Elder Zhang's illness was cured,
he would be one step closer to Zhang Naixi.
But then again,
approaching them out of the blue without any prior connection
wouldn't work.
So Lin Fan was waiting for an opportunity—
a chance to coincidentally run into Zhang Naixi.
Lin Fan didn't like being passive; he preferred to take the initiative.
Opportunities were created, not waited for.
If he were the passive type,
he wouldn't have become such a seasoned player in the romance game.
Though not every woman he pursued was a stunning goddess,
he had his fair share of successes.
Whether it was fish or fowl,
it was all meat to him.
Let's go, brothers!!!!!!
"When will I ever be as exceptional as the Dragon King?"
Ma Qun's eyes were filled with admiration.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
While he was still racking his brains trying to find ways to help Lin Fan,
Lin Fan already had a plan.
Gao Liming sipped his iced cola through a straw, curling his lips in disdain.
"I don't understand these people."
"Why do they all act like idiots?"
"All that flabby flesh—just looking at it makes me tired. Yet these fools can't seem to take their eyes off it."
"If I ever get married, I'm definitely not marrying someone like that."
Years later, the self-proclaimed "True Fragrance Emperor"
looked back on his youthful disdain
(￣_,￣)
and couldn't help but slap himself twice.
He had completely wasted his eyes back then,
focusing all his attention on worthless trash.
How he regretted it!!!!
Meanwhile, the banquet continued!!!!
Empty words meant nothing.
Zhang Hong directly called Zhang Naixi to the center of the banquet hall.
To quote a certain CEO from a past life:
"If you've got the goods, then show them!!!"
As for her grandfather Zhang Hong's decision,
even though Zhang Naixi was reluctant, she couldn't bear to embarrass him in front of everyone.
If she wanted to find a boyfriend,
she would have done so long ago.
Why wait until now?
"Gentlemen, I've heard some of your discussions, but none of it matters."
Zhang Hong smiled kindly, his expression gentle.
He then continued,
"I know some of you might hesitate to approach my granddaughter due to concerns about your family backgrounds."
"But think about it this way—why did I invite you all here tonight?"
Everyone present was smart.
Halfway through his words,
it dawned on them.
They had already passed the initial screening.
In other words,
at this banquet,
their descendants all had a chance.
The competition was on--------------let the games begin!!!!
"Dad, I told you!!! How could someone like Elder Zhang deceive us?"
"You little brat, you still dare to talk back!!! Do you want me to smack you?"
"Dad, no!!!! Please don't!!!!"
"Alright, alright. I won't hit you today. Since there's a chance, you better wipe that creepy smile off your face and put your best foot forward!!! Got it?"
"Yes, yes, Dad, you're the best!!!!"
Scenes like this played out repeatedly throughout the banquet hall.
Zhang Hong was very pleased.
The microphone was then handed to Zhang Naixi,
asking her to give a brief self-introduction.
After all, this was about Zhang Naixi's lifelong happiness,
not Zhang Hong's.
If Zhang Naixi had been just a little more proactive,
this banquet wouldn't have been necessary.
Zhang Naixi took the microphone, her voice neutral and confident, giving off a cool vibe. "Hello, my name is Zhang Naixi. When it comes to finding a boyfriend, I don't care about status or background."
"There's only one condition."
"Fight me and win."
The first part gave hope to many of the younger attendees from less prominent families!!!
Damn, no need to worry about status or family background.
For these spoiled, idle, womanizing rich kids,
this was a dream come true~~~~
But then came the second part.
That was the tricky part!!!!
Why?
Because they were all untrained weaklings!!!!
Why weren't they trained?
They were born into wealth, living in luxury since birth.
They could afford bodyguards.
Why bother with training? Who needs it?
Of course,
there were a few rich kids with a passion for combat sports.
But they were only a small minority.
Let me make this clear: Naixi belongs to Xu Mo. Naixi belongs to Xu Mo. Naixi belongs to Xu Mo.
There's no way Tao Tao can get her, not with the Crooked-Mouth Dragon King around, and the Crooked-Mouth Dragon King is no match for the inner voice of Little Mo.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
