Of everyone present, only Xia Yiwei was genuinely overjoyed to hear Lin Yu's words.
She had just been nearly rendered speechless by that woman.
Thank goodness her "hubby" showed up in time!
"Hubby!"
"Are you guys done talking?"
"She is the one I often tell you about... that woman."
Xia Yiwei skipped over to Lin Yu's side.
Like a little girl, she linked her arm through his.
Seeing this, Wang Ran was quite surprised.
A young boy actually made Xia Yiwei act so out of character?
For a moment.
Wang Ran really couldn't tell if Xia Yiwei was just too love-struck, or if she was putting on a show for her on purpose.
Regardless of which it was, as the current de facto "hostess" of the house.
She had to display the appropriate grace.
"Little friend, you must be Weiwei's boyfriend, right?"
"Wait for me to change my clothes, then I'll come down to entertain our guest."
"I'm used to wearing pajamas around the house and forgot to change when I woke up, please don't mind."
"You guys chat first, have fun."
After saying that.
Wang Ran turned and walked toward the second-floor bedroom without looking back.
Lin Yu watched her disappearing figure and didn't feel she was being impolite.
In fact, his first impression of Wang Ran was quite good.
Facing an outsider who jumped right in her face to attack.
She was still able to calmly and unhurriedly assert her dominance.
At least in terms of mentality, she was much stronger than Weiwei.
It was no injustice at all that Weiwei couldn't outsmart her at home and lost.
It was just that Lin Yu was a bit curious...
In the dream world, Wang Ran seemed to be a bit gentler than in reality?
In terms of demeanor and personality, she was more like a "harmless little sheep."
The dream world represented Weiwei's subconscious.
So that meant...
Subconsciously, Weiwei actually didn't hate Wang Ran that much?
Who knows.
Lin Yu couldn't see Weiwei's thoughts right now anyway.
A woman's world really isn't that easy to understand!
Xia Xiashan approached the two of them and said to Lin Yu with a serious face:
"Lin Yu, you... you absolutely must not be so impulsive."
Originally, Xia Xiashan wanted to be more blunt.
But seeing the shifty-eyed Lei Siren behind Lin Yu, she could only drop a subtle hint instead of saying it outright.
Even so.
Lin Yu still understood what Xia Xiashan meant.
He gave her an affirmative look and said seriously:
"Don't worry, Sister Shanshan."
"Do I look like someone who speaks and acts recklessly?"
"I know what to do, right, Weiwei?"
Lin Yu nudged his elbow, prompting Weiwei to chime in.
Xia Yiwei was still immersed in the excitement of Lin Yu standing up for her just now.
Asked this, she immediately nodded repeatedly and said:
"Of course!"
"My hubby is the most reliable person in the world when it comes to speaking and acting!"
The casual "hubby" made Xia Xiashan couldn't help but roll her eyes at her.
She felt that today's dinner party wouldn't be so easy to get through.
Xia Xiashan only hoped that no major trouble would arise.
Lei Siren, who hadn't spoken the whole time, was already laughing secretly inside.
Lin Yu acted like a fool, being so impolite to Wang Ran right from the start.
For Lei Siren, this was absolutely fantastic news!
Having offended Wang Ran, how could they possibly get along as a family in the future?
Wang Ran definitely wouldn't let him off!
Great.
Hadn't the lost opportunity just presented itself?
If he stirred the pot a little today, there wouldn't even be a need for anyone else to deal with Lin Yu.
Wang Ran was the best knife for the job!
Hahahaha...
Truly, you can search far and wide for something, only to find it effortlessly!
"Young Master Lei, what are you laughing at?"
"Did you suddenly think of something happy?"
Lei Siren snapped back to his senses.
Only then did he realize that all three pairs of eyes were focused on him.
"N-nothing, I wasn't laughing at anything... Was I laughing?"
Lei Siren responded in a panic, not knowing how to explain himself for a moment.
Xia Yiwei nodded affirmatively:
"I can testify, you were laughing, and you were laughing very sinisterly."
Lei Siren's eyes widened: "!!!"
Hiss!
Damn it, he had just been too happy.
He actually forgot to manage his facial expressions.
Lei Siren hurriedly explained:
"I just thought that Brother Lin Yu, he just now..."
Unexpectedly.
Lin Yu directly cut in, patting Lei Siren on the shoulder and saying:
"Understood, I get it, I get it!"
Lei Siren's eyes twitched: "???"
What the hell do you get!
Get what?
Lei Siren himself hadn't even fully figured out what to say yet.
How could you possibly get it?
He didn't know what kind of evil blame was going to be pinned on his head this time.
Just as Lei Siren expected.
After Lin Yu "got it," he continued:
"Young Master Lei must also have a grudge against that woman!"
"Right? Did I guess correctly?"
"So seeing me not give her any face, Young Master Lei was this happy."
"Otherwise, it couldn't possibly be that you were laughing at me, right?"
Lin Yu looked at Lei Siren with a slightly threatening gaze.
Making him unavoidably recall his previous painful memories.
How could he possibly admit that he was actually laughing at Lin Yu just now!
At least the excuse Lin Yu provided sounded somewhat logical.
Lei Siren hurriedly used the out provided and said:
"Laughing at Brother Lin Yu? How is that possible!"
"Brother Lin Yu, your guess is completely correct."
"My relationship with that Wang Ran is also terrible. I've disliked her for a long time."
"Your performance just now really helped me vent some frustration, it was so satisfying!"
Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction:
"Satisfying, huh?"
Lei Siren gave a serious thumbs-up:
"Of course, very satisfying!"
Lin Yu revealed a sly smile:
"Hehe, there will be something even more satisfying in a bit."
"Since Young Master Lei also hates that woman so much, shouldn't we cooperate?"
Lei Siren took a deep breath: "!!!"
Fuck!
This is bad!

s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!

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.

No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
