At night, a restaurant that doesn't even deserve a name.
Dim lights, romantic ambiance, soothing music... Seriously? How is this any different from a club?
Zhao Yan silently mocked in his mind.
Of course, he had never been to a club.
It's just that he had a friend who often went.
Zhao Yan had only heard about it from him.
"Zhao Yan, why aren't you eating? Just a bit of wine and you're full?" Chen Yurou asked curiously.
Zhao Yan smiled faintly, "There's a saying, 'beauty is feast for the eyes,' and another saying goes, 'love makes the water taste sweet.'"
"You have such a sharp tongue," Chen Yurou blushed and chided softly, raising her glass and taking a sip.
Zhao Yan added in his mind, 'Beauty is feast for the eyes,' refers to gorgeous ladies being like a dish. But 'love makes the water taste sweet' doesn't refer to this water.
Tonight was their first date. Chen Yurou was dressed beautifully, her hair elegantly styled, revealing her delicate face and slender neck.
In a light purple strapless dress, she exposed her fair shoulders, her body's curves graceful, the hem just reaching her knees, her legs encased in black stockings long and straight.
Elegant yet generous, noble yet refined.
At eleven at night, their dinner ended. Chen Yurou was originally going to drive Zhao Yan back to school.
But Zhao Yan, citing concern for her driving alone after drinking, suggested driving her home first and then taking her car back to school himself.
A rough man, yet attentive to details.
Faced with Zhao Yan's thoughtfulness, Chen Yurou felt her heart melting, wishing they could just get married right away.
"Or we could go in and sit for a while before leaving."
After arriving home, Chen Yurou invited Zhao Yan in.
Zhao Yan looked at the lights in the living room, shaking his head in refusal, "Let's forget it. Your brother is at home tonight. Otherwise, I would've gone in and sat with you."
"Don't worry about him. My sister-in-law is back today. He won't dare to act up," Chen Yurou smiled coyly, pursing her lips.
Zhao Yan thought to himself, 'Your sister-in-law is back, even more reason for me not to go in. I'm afraid he'll come after me.'
Just then, the door opened.
Chen Han, with a bruised face, first saw Chen Yurou, then noticed Zhao Yan below the steps. When brothers meet, there's always extra excitement. His eyes immediately turned red.
"Zhao Yan! I'm gonna kill you!" Chen Han roared and charged forward.
Zhao Yan agilely dodged aside, "Brother Chen, don't be like this, you might hurt yourself."
"Still pretending, huh! I'm a 8th-degree Taekwondo black belt, can't handle you? See the bruises on my face? All because of you! I'll pay you back double on your face!" Chen Han gritted his teeth.
Chen Yurou's face was full of anxiety, a hint of anger showing between her eyebrows, "Brother! Can't you stop? Do you know what Zhao Yan told me today? He said no matter how you treat him, he'll forgive you. Why can't you learn from him and be more open-minded?"
"Him? Forgive me?" Chen Han pointed at Zhao Yan and then himself, his eyes wide as he shouted, "Can a human say such words?"
"Zhao Yan! You damn bastard, really sharp-tongued, you've opened my eyes!"
He made me so miserable, yet shamelessly stood on the moral high ground, saying he would forgive me.
Chen Han was getting angrier by the minute.
"Chen Ge, listen to my explanation... no, listen to my explanation," Zhao Yan's expression was very sincere.
But Chen Han just wanted to punch him: "Say whatever you have to say after you've taken a beating from me!"
"Chen Ge, please don't do this, you'll really hurt yourself," Zhao Yan pleaded earnestly.
Chen Han sneered, "Haha, you really have a knack for pretending, then I beg you to hurt me."
With that, Chen Han attacked.
Chen Han threw a straight punch.
Chen Han fell.
"Ge! Are you okay, Ge!" Chen Yurou exclaimed, rushing to help Chen Han.
"I told you not to do this, you really will hurt yourself, Chen Ge, why won't you listen to advice?" Zhao Yan said helplessly.
As the saying goes, those who don't listen to advice will go hungry.
Chen Han foamed at the mouth, looking incredulously at Zhao Yan as he struggled to speak, "You... you're also at the eighth level?"
"Well, I took some body-enhancing drugs," Zhao Yan revealed a harmless smile.
"Pfft—"
Chen Han spat out blood, lying in Chen Yurou's arms, tears streaming down his face as he howled to the sky, "Ah ah ah!"
"If I have sinned! The law will punish me severely! Why did heaven send you to torment me!"
A tall and beautiful woman in a nightgown walked out, "What are you arguing about so loudly at night! I can hear your pig-slaughtering screams even when I'm taking a bath!"
Upon seeing Chen Han's miserable state, her expression changed instantly, and she hurried forward to take Chen Han from Chen Yurou's arms, "Husband! What's wrong with you, husband! Who did this to you, who beat you like this."
Lying in his wife's arms, Chen Han was deeply moved, his wife still loved him, what a warm embrace.
"Sister-in-law, it was Big Brother who started it, he was being unreasonable, Zhao Yan forgave him, but he insisted on hitting Zhao Yan," Chen Yurou pouted and explained.
Chen Han's wife, upon hearing this, the anxiety on her face disappeared instantly, and she directly let go, "So he's being stupid on his own, he deserves it."
Chen Han fell heavily to the ground again.
"..........(´;ω;`) sob~"
He had never felt so wronged in his life.
"Sister-in-law, this is Zhao Yan, he has helped my brother a lot, without him, there would be no Hanjiang Group today," Chen Yurou pointed to Zhao Yan and introduced.
Chen Han's wife looked at Zhao Yan in amazement, no wonder her husband had suddenly become successful in recent years.
So there was someone helping behind the scenes.
Zhao Yan modestly said, "Sister-in-law, I just did a little insignificant help, most of it is Chen Ge's own credit, not mine."
"You shut up! You smug face, what does this have to do with you!" Chen Han cursed.
"It's you who should shut up! Look at your wolf-like face." His wife glared at him, then looked at Zhao Yan, "Zhao... Zhao Yan, you are our benefactor, come in and have a seat."
"No thanks, sister-in-law, I have some things to do, I need to go back urgently," Zhao Yan repeatedly refused.
Watching the three people chatting and laughing, Chen Han shouted angrily, "Just take me to the hospital first!"
"Who told you to pick a fight on your own, huh!"
Chen Han's wife was very beautiful and also very tough.
No wonder Chen Han was henpecked.
After that, Zhao Yan bid farewell to Chen Han's family and drove away amidst a series of blessings from Chen Han.
There were too many blessings, so I won't write them down.
Writing them out would just turn into **.
................
After returning to school.
Before Zhao Yan could even take off his clothes, he was dragged out by the suddenly bursting in Meng Hao.
"Oh my god! You scared me! I thought it was a flower thief," Chen Mao said, clutching his buttocks.
"Don't worry, flower thieves don't pick chrysanthemums."
"Chrysanthemums are also flowers, don't you understand what gender equality is?" Chen Mao retorted, then asked, "What do you guys think Meng Laoshi was in such a hurry to take Lao Zhao out for in the middle of the night?"
"Most likely he wants Lao Zhao to participate in some competition to bring glory to the school," Liu Qiang yawned.
Zhang Yuan covered himself with a blanket, "Anyway, it can't be to participate in the Olympics, there's nothing worth paying attention to, hurry up and sleep, being late again tomorrow would be miserable."
Meng Hao was in such a hurry to take Zhao Yan out because he brought leaders related to the Olympics and the national track and field team coach to inspect on-site.
After all, this matter was too absurd, to be honest, no one believed that there could be someone who could run so fast.
If it weren't for Meng Hao's solemn assurance, they wouldn't have wasted their time making a trip.
They thought Meng Hao had developed an obsession due to his injury and hopeless retirement as a champion from years ago, which is why he was talking nonsense, originally everyone pitied him.
After all, according to Meng Hao's words, that guy named Zhao Yan runs faster than livestock, who could believe that?
How could there be such a person in the world?
If there is one, then it must not be human.
It's another kind of livestock!

g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!

Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
