The next day.
Early morning.
【I am Qin Luo】
【When you see this message】
【I have already.......】
【gone out to buy groceries (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤】
Su Muwan, who had just woken up and wandered to the dining table, fell silent as she stared at the note in her hand, which was emitting dark smoke.
Two seconds later.
Snap!
She tossed away the note made of black mist, her pupils trembling.
Seriously?!
Qin Luo, are you okay?!
You made it sound like you got dragged into some bizarre incident again!
Ugh, can anyone relate? Ever since Qin Luo got together with her, he’s become more and more outrageous!
But whatever.
Tummy’s rumbling.
Su Muwan rubbed her stomach, torn between breakfast and lunch.
In the end, she chose snacks.
A moment later.
"Ta-da~!"
Su Muwan piled all the snacks onto the coffee table.
Standing before the table with her arms crossed, she scrutinized the bags of chips with a serious expression.
Tapping her fingers lightly, she muttered to herself, "Should I go for cucumber flavor this time...?"
"Cool and refreshing, with a hint of countryside charm."
"The crisp texture wrapped in that fresh, clean taste... Hmm..."
"No, let’s think again."
Su Muwan shook her head and shifted her gaze to another bag, raising an eyebrow. "Tomato flavor..."
"Rich and robust, like the soul of an Italian tomato meat sauce condensed into every chip, each one coated in the perfect balance of sweet and tangy tomato essence."
"One bite, and the burst of tomato juice—oh wait, no juice."
Then her eyes landed on another bag, and her pupils shrank. Her voice turned grave. "Red stew flavor?!"
"That deep, aromatic blend of spices—onion’s subtle sweetness, tomato’s richness, and the warmth of herbs, all melded together..."
Gasp!
Su Muwan sucked in a sharp breath. This was another flavor she found utterly irresistible!!!
Should she?
Should she go for the red stew flavor?!
Her hand trembled as she reached for the bag, her breathing growing ragged.
The taste of red stew unfolds in layers—first a gentle spice that tingles the taste buds, then a rising sweetness, and finally, the lingering aftertaste of spices dancing on the tongue.
Slurp~
Su Muwan licked her lips, her eyes blazing.
Red stew, you devil... You’re just too tempting!!
But!
But can I really surrender to red stew like this?!
Her face twisted in conflict as she used her left hand to restrain her eager right hand.
Hold on, right hand!!
After finally finishing all that work!!
Can’t you even last one minute before picking the final chip flavor?!
Su Muwan, oh Su Muwan! Is this really you?!
You’re the Martial Arts Supreme! The Grandmaster of Chip Tasting!
Even without Qin Luo around, you can laze around all day.
But!
Will you really fall to red stew flavor?!
The answer is... No!
Only by enduring to the limit can you experience the ultimate bliss when you finally indulge!
Haven’t you proven this yourself, Su Muwan?!
Gritting her teeth, she forcefully yanked her hand back from the red stew chips.
"Huff... Huff..."
Panting, she glared at the bag on the table, her expression one of lingering fear.
You crafty red stew.
Even after I’ve devoured tens of thousands of bags, you still dare to tempt me?!
Even now, you refuse to give up?!
"A formidable foe," Su Muwan murmured, her face deadly serious.
But...
Her eyes swept over the other chip bags. Is there more?
Could there possibly be a flavor more perfect, more enticing, more unforgettable than red stew?!
Does such a thing even exist?!
Her resolve wavered again, and her trembling hand inched once more toward the red stew chips.
Gulp!
She swallowed hard as she stared at the bag.
Think about it, Su Muwan. Nothing surpasses red stew chips in status!
That’s right...
Just relax, Su Muwan. Accept the red stew chips. Indulge in—
But!! Suddenly!!
A mysterious golden light erupted from the corner of the coffee table.
So... So bright!
Su Muwan froze mid-reach, squinting against the glare as she turned toward the source.
And what she saw made her pupils shrink.
That was!!
"Original flavor chips?!!"
BOOM!
Her mind exploded like it had been struck by lightning.
Stunned, she stared at the bag of original chips radiating that golden light, her feet rooted to the spot.
How could I forget?
Her body trembled slightly. Su Muwan... How could you forget?!
Original flavor—seemingly plain, yet the epitome of "returning to simplicity" in the chip world.
Its pure potato aroma is the ultimate tribute to the ingredient’s natural essence.
One bite, and you’re greeted with the earthy, wholesome richness of the potato itself!!
That’s the gift of the soil itself!!
Gasp! Pant!
Su Muwan covered her face, the pressure overwhelming.
No! If anything!!
Original flavor is the GOAT!!
Don’t forget, Su Muwan!
The joy you felt when you first tore open that bag of original chips and took that first bite!
That was—
【Big Sis Su, can I have some chips too?】
【Here】
【Thanks, sis!】
Memories of the past flashed before her eyes.
Even if she’s now the so-called "wicked woman" in people’s stories...
You can’t deny it! Even as a child, she had forged an unbreakable bond with original chips!!
So!
Su Muwan snatched up the original chips and raised them high.
Eyes gleaming, she declared, "I choose you!"
"Original flavor chips!"
The next second.
Riiip~ The bag was torn open.
Crunch crunch!
She stuffed a chip into her mouth, her face lighting up with bliss as her eyes curved into happy crescents.
Between bites, she grabbed a cola and took a huge gulp, the fizz bursting in her mouth with exhilarating sharpness.
"Alright, now let’s try the other flavors too."
Original chips: ???
A short while later.
Crunch crunch~~!
Su Muwan lounged lazily on the sofa in her adorable shark pajamas.
The oversized shark hood drooped loosely behind her, the tail swaying side to side as she moved.
Munching on chips, she scrolled through TikTok.
Don’t get the wrong idea—normally, Su Muwan isn’t this much of a couch potato.
It’s just that with nothing urgent to do, she figured she’d cut herself some slack.
As she’d put it herself...
【As the Martial Arts Supreme, can’t I just chill for once?!】
(Though the "Martial Arts Supreme" title was self-proclaimed, of course...)
Tap tap.
Swiping through videos, she had learned her lesson and created a new account this time.

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
