If Wang Ran didn't possess absolute confidence, she certainly wouldn't have carried herself with such poise.
You really can't judge a person just by their surface appearance.
Especially in the circles of the rich; it was nowhere near as simple as Lin Yu had imagined!
Facing his young girlfriend, Xia Zhenfeng seemed like a completely different person.
A broad smile immediately piled onto his face as he said cheerfully,
"How could I? Who doesn't know I'm a decent man?"
"Who would dare arrange those kinds of things for me!"
"Xiao Ran, you know me. I'm famously loyal!"
Saying this.
Xia Zhenfeng directly grasped Wang Ran's hand.
He was no different from a twenty-something young man trying to win his girlfriend's favor.
Lin Yu was almost dumbfounded: "???"
It wasn't that older people had to be incredibly proper, solemn, and serious.
But there was a young person present, after all!
And this young person was his daughter's boyfriend!
Was it really okay to just show his true colors so openly?
Now, Lin Yu even started to doubt...
Between Wang Ran and Weiwei, who was the actual villain?
Why did it look like this older man and his young partner were genuinely in love?
Wang Ran noticed Lin Yu's reaction and playfully pushed Xia Zhenfeng with a smile.
She said pointedly,
"If you had come back any later, I'm afraid I would have been treated as an enemy and wiped out."
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Oh no. Crap.
She's coming for him!
Xia Zhenfeng followed Wang Ran's gaze and immediately spotted Lin Yu's unnatural expression.
Then.
Pointing at Lin Yu, he said,
"You mean this kid?"
"Did he give you trouble before I got back?"
Looking at Xia Zhenfeng, it seemed like he would pounce at any moment and hit Lin Yu with a vicious combo.
Lin Yu's heart pounded with anxiety!
How could he not be anxious?
Because Lin Yu was the one leading the charge in giving Wang Ran trouble just a moment ago.
However arrogant he was when causing trouble, that was exactly how anxious he felt right now.
If he had known their relationship was so harmonious, why would he have blindly taken Weiwei's side?
It was entirely due to faulty intelligence that led to this current outcome.
If it were Lin Yu himself.
Having a stranger barge into his home and blatantly scold him.
The moment the head of the household returned, he would definitely run to them for backup!
Wang Ran wasn't an idiot. Wasn't he doomed?
To his utter surprise.
Wang Ran suddenly changed the subject, chuckling lightly as she said,
"This is Lin Yu's first time at our house, how could he possibly give me trouble?"
"I'm talking about your precious daughter!"
"Every time she sees me, it's like she's looking at an enemy."
"As if I'm some snake demon seducing you to be with me."
Only then did Xia Zhenfeng withdraw his gaze from Lin Yu.
He went back to coaxing his young girlfriend:
"Hehe, this is my fault for not explaining things clearly to Weiwei."
"Actually, I've talked to her many times. You know her temper, she's too much like me, incredibly stubborn!"
"I've told her so many times, but she just won't listen."
"Shanshan is the one who understands me. I only had to tell her twice and she got it."
Wang Ran replied in an exasperated tone:
"Shanshan understands you? She's just sensible. Stop flattering yourself."
"Alright, I won't interrupt your chat. Have a good talk."
"I'm going to check on your precious daughter to see if she got scared by you."
Saying this.
Wang Ran walked around Xia Zhenfeng, deliberately passing right by Lin Yu.
The two exchanged a glance, making Lin Yu's heart skip a beat.
Hiss...
This woman was really something else!
She actually didn't mention how he offended her?
Why would she cover for him?
It left Lin Yu completely baffled.
Regardless.
At the very least, it lessened Xia Zhenfeng's hostility towards him.
During the ensuing conversation, Lin Yu could feel a bit more at ease.
"Uncle Xia, the relationship between you and Aunt Wang is truly enviable, haha."
Lin Yu complimented with a smile, not daring to say another bad word.
Xia Zhenfeng didn't beat around the bush with Lin Yu and went straight to the point:
"I listened to the recording. Thanks to you, kid, I've gotten to know that little bastard Lei Siren all over again!"
"It's not that young people can't have dirty thoughts; I was the same when I was young."
"But harboring such rotten thoughts, blabbing them to everyone, and even taking fucking pride in it..."
"That little bastard should take a good look in the mirror. Does he even have the right to act like that!"
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
