Big Brother, I have good news.

"Big Brother, I have good news," Zhao Yan whispered to Chen Han while Chen Yurou and her sister-in-law were busy cooking in the kitchen.

"What good news?" Chen Han raised an eyebrow.

Zhao Yan said, "Susu told me that club members can borrow points from each other."

"Wow! Really! Will you lend me some?" Chen Han's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhao Yan with excitement.

In a shameless manner, Zhao Yan replied, "No, I told you because I want you to lend me some."

"Damn, is this good news for me?" Chen Han said with a speechless expression.

Zhao Yan put his arm around Chen Han's shoulder and said, "It's good news for me because we are family. My good news is your good news, right?"

"Bullshit! Zhao Yan, can't you be a little considerate? Even if you want to take advantage, can't you target someone else instead of always targeting me?" Chen Han gritted his teeth and said with red eyes.

Zhao Yan blinked his eyes and said, "You're right, you reminded me. I have someone else I can borrow from."

"That's more like it," Chen Han sighed with relief.

Go bother someone else, don't bother me.

Zhao Yan's gaze intensified, "So, with you included, I can borrow two shares now."

Chen Han: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)╭( ̄▽ ̄)╮

"Damn it! This is a disaster! A disaster!!!" Chen Han shouted in despair in the living room.

"What's wrong with you again!" Chen Han's wife yelled from the kitchen.

Zhao Yan replied affectionately, "It's nothing, sister-in-law. Big Brother is just a bit emotional. I'll comfort him, we have a close relationship."

"Thank you for taking care of him, Xiaozhao."

"No problem, we're family. It's what I should do."

A few minutes later, Zhao Yan successfully comforted Chen Han until he fainted from anger, foaming at the mouth.

All because Zhao Yan said one thing.

"If you don't lend me the points, I'll help Chen Laoshi secure a ten-month paid leave."

With those words, how could Chen Han not lend him?

If someone else said this, he wouldn't believe it.

But Zhao Yan, this beast, was definitely capable of doing it.

The following meal was filled with joy.

Everyone was happy except for Chen Han.

Even their dog was happy.

Because Chen Han was too furious to eat, his portion was taken by his wife and given to the dog.

"Big Brother, don't forget, we'll meet at the club tonight," Zhao Yan reminded before leaving.

Chen Yurou and her sister-in-law looked at them with suspicion, saying in unison, "What club are you talking about?"

"The Exchange Club," Zhao Yan replied.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yurou and her sister-in-law blushed and exclaimed, "Get lost!"

"Alright then." Zhao Yan readily agreed and turned back to wink playfully at Chen Han before getting into the car.

Chen Han was startled, trembling, and with tears in his eyes, he cursed, "You really know how to screw me over!"

...................

Changning City.

Sanhe Group Chairman's Office.

"Bang!"

Someone hastily pushed open the door and rushed into the office, saying in one breath, "Big Brother, Xiaoqiang has been arrested."

Whoosh!

Behind the office desk, a middle-aged man with a portly figure and a stern face looked up upon hearing these words.

His name was Fu Zhixin, the father of Fu Qiang. Approaching his fifties, he was a late-born child and had always been obedient to Fu Qiang, which contributed to Fu Qiang's arrogant character.

"What's going on?" Fu Zhixin's expression became grave.

Because if it was just an ordinary matter, the person delivering the news wouldn't be so panicked.

The messenger swallowed and said, "Qiang was arrested this morning. I don't know what got into him, but he spilled all the suppressed secrets. The police have been tight-lipped about it, as they've been collecting evidence. It's most likely completed by now."

"That darn fool!" Fu Zhixin cursed angrily. He knew that his son wouldn't be able to come out of this. After all, it wasn't like a decade ago.

Back then, there were loopholes in various rules that could be exploited, but now they were completely sealed off.

The only thing he could do now was to hire the best lawyer and fight in court, aiming to prevent Fu Qiang from receiving the death penalty.

Then he would have to devise the next step.

The middle-aged messenger hesitated for a moment and added, "I heard this matter has something to do with someone who came from Binhai. Without him, Qiang wouldn't have gotten involved."

"Find him," Fu Zhixin said coldly.

He only had one son, and now he might end up with a death sentence. His anger had to be unleashed.

The middle-aged man asked tentatively, "Should I investigate him first? How far should I go?"

"If Qiang is sentenced to death, let him wait on the road to the underworld. If he's not sentenced to death, make sure he spends the rest of his life in a wheelchair," Fu Zhixin said expressionlessly.

He wasn't bragging; he could truly make it happen.

Because Fu Zhixin was different from the average entrepreneur. He had taken the unorthodox path and then whitewashed his past.

He had been imprisoned twice, totaling seven years.

Fu Zhixin made his fortune in the mid-1990s from coal mining. What was the concept of coal mining back then?

Damn, it was like striking gold!

Perhaps people nowadays don't understand the chaotic situation of that time.

Let me put it this way, every coal mine had its own protection team, specialized in fighting people.

Back then, seizing a mine involved gun battles.

It was common for people to die in the process of fighting over a coal mine.

Although society has improved now, if Fu Zhixin wanted someone shot, it wouldn't be that difficult.

His only son was in trouble, and he was going crazy.

Half an hour later, two cars headed towards Binhai.

...

Zhao Yan was still unaware of the incident in Changning.

He was on his way to the school to meet his three sons, with whom he had been living together for many years.

He planned to treat them to dinner that evening.

To deepen the bond between father and sons.

After all, since becoming successful, he had been too focused on enjoying himself and had forgotten about his sons, who had shared both the good and the bad times with him.

Continuing like this wouldn't do.

There would be cracks in the father-son relationship.

"Bang!"

Zhao Yan kicked open the door of the dormitory and shouted, "Boys, your daddy is back!"

"Oh, the son is back."

"Isn't the son bringing any gifts to show his filial piety?"

"Hey, big bro, where have you been this past month?"

The three of them were playing Landlord, each speaking a sentence.

When they first found out that Zhao Yan was impressive, they were somewhat reserved, but when they noticed that Zhao Yan was still the same with them as before, they became more relaxed.

After all, why be reserved between father and sons?

"In the evening, it's my treat, and you can choose the place."

Zhao Yan casually remarked.

"Oh my god! Really?"

Chen Mao and Zhang Yuan instantly dropped their cards and stood up.

Liu Qiang grew anxious in an instant, "Damn it, I have two kings and four twos. You guys did it on purpose, you scheming b*tches!"

Zhang Yuan and Chen Mao completely ignored his words.

"By the way, what did you just call me?" Zhao Yan feigned puzzlement and tapped his ear.

Chen Mao earnestly replied, "I don't know what we called you just now, but I'm definitely calling you 'Dad' now."

"No problem," Zhang Yuan and Liu Qiang nodded.

Zhao Yan said, "Tonight, Jinxiu Palace!"

"Oh my god! Zhao Yan, you'll live forever!"

The three idiots were so excited that they almost took off their own pants and thanked Zhao Yan with lubricant.

Jinxiu Palace is the best private club in Bin Hai.

So, can they not be excited?

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
