Shen Corporation.
CEO's office.
The recent stock market crash of the Shen family had left Shen Manni feeling troubled and restless.
To be honest, whenever she encountered something unpleasant,
Shen Manni would usually go play tennis, golf, or swim to relax.
However, this time, she suddenly wanted to unwind at a bar!
In all her life, she had never been to such places.
This would be her first time!
Simply put, Shen Manni wanted to go clubbing, but being timid, she didn't dare go alone.
So the unfortunate Xu Mo was dragged along to give her courage.
"What should I wear tonight?"
Shen Manni furrowed her brows, thinking that anything too revealing was definitely out of the question.
She made sure to prepare necessary self-defense items like pepper spray and stun guns.
Better safe than sorry.
If Xu Mo dared to act up while drunk, she wouldn't hesitate to give him a free electroshock therapy session.
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
At one of Xu family's electronic appliance stores.
"According to our information, Song Ligang should be working the night shift here."
"I never expected he used to be an employee of our company."
Xu Shi was patiently searching through the crowd for a certain burly figure!
In her previous life, Lin Fan was difficult to kill not only because of his own abilities but also because he had a muscular brother-like figure by his side.
His combat skills were even a level above Lin Fan's.
After Song Ligang's death, his identity
Was uncovered by Xu Shi.
It turned out Song Ligang was a squad leader from Wolf Fang, an elite foreign mercenary group.
He had unauthorized accepted an assassination mission and killed a local bigshot's son.
This led to fierce retaliation, with people hunting him worldwide!
That organization's power was too overwhelming.
Even Wolf Fang couldn't protect him.
To escape the pursuit, Song Ligang had no choice but to return to his homeland to lay low.
He lived a very humble life.
Xu Shi had been puzzled about why someone like him would be willing to die for Lin Fan!
It turned out Lin Fan was the protagonist!
As for how Song Ligang and Lin Fan met,
Xu Shi believed that guy Lin Fan just had dumb luck!
After her reincarnation, what she needed to do was to get ahead of the game!
To snatch away the opportunities that should have belonged to Lin Fan!
In one sentence: That scum doesn't deserve it!
She remembered that in her previous life, when Lin Fan was about to die from gunfire, Song Ligang ran back to take the bullet for him in the name of brotherhood.
When Lin Fan fled, he didn't even look back.
"Hey, watch out!"
A voice called out.
Then a burly man standing two meters tall quickly scooped up a mischievous child.
Where the child had been playing, a Japanese rice cooker fell and crashed to the ground, becoming completely deformed.
Xu Shi looked in the direction of the voice!
Finally, she found the person she was looking for!
"Yu, Yu, my dear grandson, are you alright?!"
An elderly woman came stumbling over.
Without even saying thank you.
She hurriedly checked if the child was hurt.
The child, knowing he had done something wrong, didn't dare to be naughty anymore.
He stood there obediently.
Soon other store employees came over.
"What happened?"
It was just after the evening shift change, so there weren't many customers around.
Song Ligang explained briefly: "This child bumped into the shelf, I pulled him away, and then the rice cooker fell."
"Oh, I see." Then the employee pointed at the rice cooker on the ground, "Grandmother, your grandson made a mistake and needs to take responsibility. This Japanese rice cooker costs 20,000 Dragon Currency. Although the exterior is damaged, it can still be used and has warranty."
Upon hearing about the 20,000 compensation!
The old woman's expression changed!
It wasn't that she couldn't afford it.
In her view, her grandson was just being a bit mischievous.
He shouldn't have to pay such a high compensation!
Moreover, what does a child know?
He's just a kid!
The old woman counter-accused: "Nonsense! Which eye of yours saw my precious grandson bump into the shelf?"
Both Song Ligang and the employee were surprised by this turn of events.
The employee rubbed his hands together and patiently said, "Ma'am, we have surveillance cameras here. You should consider the situation before trying to lie."
"Call your manager over!" the old woman suddenly demanded.
Song Ligang and the employee exchanged glances.
Both looked annoyed.
Getting the manager wouldn't change the outcome, would it?
Then the employee went to find the manager.
While Song Ligang waited nearby.
He believed justice would prevail.
He hadn't done anything wrong.
Xu Shi suppressed her excitement and chose not to act rashly.
She felt the situation wasn't over yet.
Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can rise again.
Helping Song Ligang now wasn't clearly the right choice.
Soon the manager arrived.
"Little Liang, you're finally here."
Seeing Manager Liang, the old woman's face broke into a smile.
Manager Liang looked confused, "Third Aunt, what's wrong?"
The old woman didn't give Song Ligang or the employee a chance to speak.
She went straight to the point.
"Your employee carelessly damaged the rice cooker himself, and then falsely accused my Yu of doing it. Where's the justice in that?"
Manager Liang quickly understood what was going on.
He had been confused when the employee brought him over.
Without a doubt, it was another case of his relative's grandson causing trouble.
This Yu was notorious for being naughty at home!
He had caused many problems before.
20,000 wasn't a small amount.
Manager Liang glanced at Song Ligang.
Song Ligang wasn't yet a permanent employee and had no backing.
Manager Liang quickly made his decision - better you than me. His family had a good relationship with Third Aunt.
Although this was despicable, Song Ligang was just unlucky.
"Wu, you can go now."
The employee named Wu was stunned.
"But... manager..."
Manager Liang said sternly, "Are you done with your work?"
Wu gave Song Ligang a sympathetic look before leaving helplessly.
Manager Liang took out a pack of Yuxi cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to Song Ligang.
Song Ligang didn't reach for it.
His fists were clenched tight.
Facing this two-meter-tall giant,
Manager Liang felt somewhat nervous, but he pressed on for the sake of his family.
"Ligang, when you make a mistake, you need to own up to it. When you take a hit, you need to stand firm."
"Let's be frank here. Although you didn't directly break the rice cooker, you still bear some responsibility."
"Let's do this - I won't make it too hard on you. Your monthly salary is 3,000, so we'll take three months' worth. I'll chip in some myself, so you'll only need to pay 9,000."
Song Ligang's clenched fists made cracking sounds!
He glared at the family with anger and helplessness.
Who would have thought that a member of Wolf Fang, once feared by enemies, would one day be bullied by such insignificant people.
Even a tiger becomes vulnerable when it leaves its mountain.
His past glory only made his current predicament more pathetic.
At this moment, a sweet, childlike voice rang out.
"My, Manager Liang, what a high position you hold! Where did you learn to tell such blatant lies?"
his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall?

"Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…

Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!
