Xu Mu had crossed over.
Staring at the golden bull emblem on the steering wheel before him and the carbon fiber trim surrounding him, he fell into deep thought. This was a Lamborghini sports car—something he had only ever seen on his phone before.
"I'm not even dead yet, so how did I end up crossing over?"
Just seconds ago, Xu Mu had left work, headphones in, listening to an urban fantasy novel. He had just opened the door of his Nissan Sylphy and sat down when he realized the interior had transformed into this.
A flood of unfamiliar memories surged through Xu Mu’s mind.
Leaning back in the seat, he felt utterly disoriented.
Turns out, he had crossed into the very novel he’d been listening to.
But that wasn’t the real issue. The real problem was that he had become the story’s villain.
The protagonist was the Dragon King, a legendary warrior who had returned with an army of three thousand soldiers, only to discover his younger sister living in a doghouse.
And the one responsible for this cruelty? Xu Mu. His fate, as one might expect, wasn’t looking good.
"I can’t believe this ridiculous plot," Xu Mu muttered under his breath.
To force the protagonist’s dominance, the author had dumbed down all the side characters.
That much was understandable.
But the way his own character had been nerfed was just absurd.
The protagonist’s sister was currently a high school senior—sweet, adorable, top of her class, and the school’s most beautiful girl.
And yet, this villain had made her live in a doghouse?
Xu Mu pressed his fingers against his temples, piecing together the details of his current situation.
He was Xu Mu.
The second son of Xu Shou, chairman of the Xu Corporation.
He had an older sister—a stunning beauty, one year his senior, and the company’s CEO.
In most stories, a beautiful female CEO like her would end up in the protagonist’s harem. This novel was no exception.
His sister was destined to become the Dragon King’s woman.
However, based on future plot developments, Xu Mu knew she was actually adopted.
Her true identity was the daughter of Xu Shou’s sworn brother, who had passed away. Xu Shou had taken her in and raised her as his own.
As for Xu Mu, he had a newlywed wife—Ye Tong, the eldest daughter of the fallen Ye family.
She happened to be the Dragon King’s older sister.
The protagonist’s surname was Ye. Of course it was.
According to the plot, not only Ye Tong but also Ye Yu would eventually become the Dragon King’s women.
Because the Dragon King was the adopted son of the Ye family patriarch, his true origins were beyond extraordinary.
This… also made perfect sense.
With the Ye family bankrupt and desperate for support, they had turned to the Xu Corporation—the top-ranked conglomerate in Jiang City.
After Ye Tong married into the Xu family, she brought along her younger sister—the one Xu Mu had forced to live in a doghouse.
But the real issue was that this villainous Xu Mu despised them, viewing them as parasites.
When the Ye family had fallen, Xu Shou, out of loyalty to their past ties, had invested heavily in them—only to watch it all go to waste.
Instead, Xu Mu had become infatuated with a beautiful high school teacher in Jiang City, showering her with flowers every day after work.
And yes, of course.
This teacher was also one of the protagonist’s future conquests.
Xu Mu was practically a walking disaster—stealing the protagonist’s women, abusing his sister, and forcing his younger sister into a doghouse.
When the Dragon King returned, did anyone really expect him to let this slide?
According to the plot, the Dragon King’s strength was beyond comprehension. After dealing with Xu Mu, his three thousand soldiers would march on the Xu Corporation.
Even Xu Shou would have no choice but to swallow his pride and accept defeat.
As for Xu Mu’s sister? She might even be pleased—she had always hated him.
And honestly, Xu Mu couldn’t blame her. This villain’s IQ was clearly in the negatives.
With such a strong hand, how had he managed to play it so poorly?
Xu Mu began to panic. The protagonist was overpowered—was he just supposed to wait for death?
Once the Dragon King came for him, his sister, wife, and sister-in-law wouldn’t lift a finger to help.
If they didn’t kick him while he was down, he’d count himself lucky.
Rebuilding their trust in just a few days was impossible.
Just as Xu Mu was at a loss, a line of black text appeared before his eyes.
[Detected host possesses the innate Villain Saint Body—a severe threat to host’s safety.]
Seeing the text, Xu Mu’s face lit up. As an avid novel reader, he knew exactly what this was.
His system had arrived.
"System, what should I do?" Xu Mu immediately asked.
But the system didn’t respond. Instead, more black text appeared.
[Host must perform righteous deeds to accumulate Justice Points, counteracting the body’s nature.]
[Reward granted: Divine Eye.]
Xu Mu narrowed his eyes as a stream of knowledge seemed to materialize in his mind—as if he’d always known it.
Taking a deep breath, he understood his system’s purpose.
In short, he had to do good deeds to earn people’s goodwill.
When their favorability toward him increased, he would gain Justice Points, which could be used for draws.
But ordinary people provided pitifully few Justice Points.
Only those connected to the protagonist could offer substantial amounts.
His Divine Eye allowed him to see who these individuals were.
Gaining their approval would massively boost his Justice Points.
Xu Mu silently called for the system again, and his status panel appeared.
On the left was his personal information, while the right displayed a lottery wheel—though the rewards remained hidden for now.
He checked his stats first.
Name: Xu Mu
Identity: Villain Saint Body, HR Manager of Xu Corporation.
Strength: 9
Speed: 11
Endurance: 6
Defense: 7
Skills: None
Note: Based on system screening, the average attribute value for all men in the same age group is set at 10.
...
Xu Mu stared at his own stats—even a dog would shed tears looking at them.
Especially his endurance, which was embarrassingly low.
But according to his memories, the old Xu Mu spent his nights partying at bars—how could his health be good?
Fortunately, with the system, he wouldn’t have to be so passive when dealing with the protagonist anymore.
Xu Mu suddenly turned his head and noticed an eighteen-year-old guy holding up his phone, taking pictures of his car.
He used his "Eye of the Divine" to check the other person’s information.
Name: Li Shuai
Occupation: Student
Favorability: -3
Fate Level: 1 (Max Level 10)
Xu Mu was speechless. I don’t even know you—why is your favorability negative?
But upon closer thought, it made sense.
In this world, there were plenty of people who resented the wealthy. Seeing a rich person, they’d instinctively feel dislike.
So, Xu Mu opened the car door and stepped out.
Li Shuai, noticing the owner approaching, immediately put his phone away.
He couldn’t afford to offend someone like this, so he stammered, "Sorry, your car is just too cool. I couldn’t help taking a picture. If you don’t like it, I’ll delete it right now."
"Why delete it? Want to sit inside and feel it for yourself?"
Xu Mu flashed a gentle, refined smile.
"Uh… that wouldn’t be right."
Li Shuai froze.
In his experience, most young guys driving sports cars were rich brats who looked down on everyone.
He never expected this handsome guy to be so easygoing.
[Favorability +5]
Xu Mu glanced at the black text floating before his eyes and checked Li Shuai’s stats again.
His favorability had turned positive, now at 2.
At the same time, Xu Mu himself gained 5 points of "Justice Value."
"What’s the problem? Sitting in it won’t break anything."
Xu Mu patted Li Shuai’s shoulder.
"Really? Bro, thank you!"
Li Shuai was overjoyed. Holding his phone, he carefully slid into the seat and started snapping pictures wildly.
"Lift the red cover on the center console—that’s the ignition button. You can step on the gas a few times too."
Xu Mu chuckled from outside the car.
"Bro! You’re the best!"
Li Shuai felt like he was about to faint from happiness. He started the car.
VROOM!
The roar of the engine echoed around them.
He pressed the accelerator a few more times, the savage growl of the car making him tremble with excitement.
[Favorability +8]
Xu Mu smirked. Didn’t expect to earn over a dozen Justice Points so quickly.
Just then, his gaze shifted toward the school gate in the distance.
Two women appeared in his line of sight.
One of them was the beautiful teacher he’d been pursuing—Mu Qingying.
She wore a black uniform, the buttons straining against her chest.
Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, revealing a flawless oval face with bright eyes and pearly white teeth. Even celebrities on TV couldn’t compare.
From his memories, Xu Mu knew this woman was a solid E-cup.
On that point, he had to agree.
Call it like it is—the original villain’s taste was at least on point.
"Qingying! Look, he’s here again. Rain or shine, he never misses a day," the short-haired woman beside Mu Qingying said, her voice tinged with envy.
"Hmph! He’s just a scumbag!"
Mu Qingying strode over with a frosty expression. "Xu Mu! How many times do I have to tell you? There’s no chance between us!"
Li Shuai, still reveling in the car, panicked at the scene and scrambled out.
"Bro, I’ll get going now."
"Sure."
Xu Mu didn’t even acknowledge Mu Qingying, simply waving Li Shuai off.
"Xu Mu, I’m talking to you! Take your flowers and get lost!"
"Who said these flowers were for you?"
Xu Mu looked at Mu Qingying with calm indifference. "You’re really full of yourself, aren’t you?"
