"Congratulations, Young Master Xu."
Guo Xiao approached Xu Mu and said with a smile.
Her father had passed away, and as a young woman, she couldn't fit into Xu Shou's circle.
Seeing Xu Mu coming, she quickly greeted him.
"You're too kind." Xu Mu nodded with a smile.
"This weight - loss pill has been a great success. It will surely open up a new world in Yang City. By then, I hope Young Master Xu will take care of us local enterprises."
Guo Xiao raised the champagne in her hand and took a gentle sip.
"Don't worry. As long as there's an opportunity, I definitely won't forget about Miss Guo. A heroic woman like you is bound to achieve great things in the future."
Xu Mu also replied politely with a smile.
[Favorability + 10]
"Then I'll thank Young Master Xu in advance." Guo Xiao showed a smile.
At this time, Fang Chu had also come over. He said indifferently, "Wife, in the future, I alone can make our family's enterprise advance by leaps and bounds. There's no need to rely on others."
He could feel that the three - year period was approaching.
Once he regained his strength, he wouldn't endure any longer. Leading a small group would be a piece of cake for him.
"Can you shut up? You're making a fool of yourself!"
Guo Xiao glared at Fang Chu coldly.
"It's okay. Maybe he really has the ability." Xu Mu let out a soft laugh. "I'm quite envious of him for having a wife like Miss Guo."
[Favorability + 5]
Guo Xiao's favorability towards Xu Mu increased even more. She thought how gentle and refined he was. Why hadn't she met such a man before?
If she had married into the Xu Family back then, the two families would have been a powerful alliance.
It was a pity that she was already married. Xu Shou definitely wouldn't let Xu Mu marry a divorced woman.
Xu Mu and Su Ruiming were sitting at the table drinking, and Meng Wanyue was standing beside Xu Mu.
In the distance, Xu Shou was chatting with many businessmen from Jiang City.
Xu Ningbing walked up to Xu Shou and whispered in his ear, "Dad, it's almost eight o'clock."
Xu Shou glanced at his watch and said with a smile, "It seems that the big businessmen in Yang City want to give me a hard time."
Hearing this, all the surrounding businessmen laughed.
Actually, everyone understood that the Xu Family was wealthy on its own and didn't need investment. Their entry into Yang City was to divide the market share.
"Boss Xu! Congratulations!"
Just then, three people walked in from outside the hall.
The leading one was a middle - aged man with half - white hair. This was Shen Hong.
Beside Shen Hong was Shen Wanning.
Behind the two of them was a burly middle - aged man, obviously acting as a bodyguard.
"Master Shen, welcome!"
Xu Shou first glanced at the time on his watch and then greeted him with a smile.
All the surrounding businessmen also followed suit.
The Shen Family was a giant in Jiangbei.
Back then, the Xu Family and the Feng Family had fought hard just to be in the top five in Jiangbei.
But the Shen Family ranked third in Jiangbei.
His appearance didn't surprise others. After all, the spokesperson for the Xu Family's weight - loss pill was the daughter of the Shen Family.
This was a win - win situation. Thanks to the weight - loss pill, Shen Wanning had been on the hot search several times.
People were gradually getting to know her music.
Just the number of her fans had doubled.
"Shen Wanning? I'm your fan. Can we take a photo together?"
"I went to your last concert."
...
Several young men in the distance all took out their phones and trotted over.
Seeing this, Su Ruiming whispered a reminder, "Young Master Xu, look! A celebrity! Let me call her over to accompany you."
Hearing this, Xu Mu almost lost his temper. Couldn't he use his brain?
This was a typical brainless villain character. He'd easily get into big trouble!
She was Shen Hong's daughter.
"Keep a low profile. Be a man of good breeding. Then people will come to make friends with you on their own initiative."
Xu Mu picked up the wine glass beside him and said indifferently.
"Sure enough, Young Master Xu's words are so insightful!" Su Ruiming gave a thumbs - up.
After Shen Hong came in, suddenly a large group of people came in one after another.
"Congratulations, Chairman Xu! There was a traffic jam on the way. Fortunately, I'm not late."
"Boss Xu is back in Yang City. We should cooperate more in the future."
"Master Shen is also here! Long time no see!"
...
Xu Mu watched these people coming in an endless stream and just shook his head gently. It seemed that these people had been waiting in the distance.
But since none of the leading enterprises in Yang City had come, they didn't dare to come either.
If they were targeted by the local leading enterprises, they wouldn't be able to handle it.
However, Shen Hong of the Shen Family had taken the lead.
With a leader, they naturally came right away because the Xu Family was also a force they couldn't afford to offend.
Xu Mu and Su Ruiming sat here drinking throughout and didn't participate in the conversations of those people.
Just then, Shen Wanning declined those asking for photos and autographs and sat down beside Xu Mu on her own initiative.
Su Ruiming beside them was stunned and looked at Xu Mu with extreme admiration.
Sure enough, Young Master Xu had really attracted this celebrity with his good breeding.
"Xu Mu, I want to thank you this time."
Shen Wanning said calmly.
She thought that maybe Xu Mu had worked hard to learn music in seclusion because he wanted to pursue her.
It has to be admitted that Xu Mu has a high musical talent, but she just doesn't like this kind of man with a bad character.
"Where, where." Xu Mu remained calm and politely responded.
"Uncle Xu, welcome to Yang City."
Just then, another person walked in from outside. "Sorry, I'm late because of the traffic jam on the road."
Everyone around looked outside and found that it was Feng Jian from the Feng Family who was walking in.
Seeing this, many people turned their heads to look at Xu Shou, looking like they were watching a show.
Feng Kang didn't come; instead, his son came. Moreover, it was the second - son who had no real power, which obviously showed that the Feng Family didn't attach importance to the Xu Family.
Xu Shou wasn't angry either. With a smiling face, he asked, "Why didn't Old Feng come?"
"My dad had something to do and couldn't come, so he sent me here instead," Feng Jian replied calmly.
"Okay, please take a seat."
Xu Shou nodded with a smile.
Feng Jian noticed Shen Wanning at a glance, but found that she was sitting beside Xu Mu, which made him extremely unhappy.
He walked over and greeted with a smile, "Wanning, you're here too."
"Yeah."
Shen Wanning nodded indifferently. Compared with Xu Mu, she disliked Feng Jian even more, so she got up voluntarily and walked towards a distance.
"Xu Mu! I'm warning you. If you dare to get close to Shen Wanning again, I have plenty of ways to deal with you!"
Feng Jian whispered menacingly beside Xu Mu.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you talk to Young Master Xu like that?"
Su Ruiming slapped the table.
Xu Mu couldn't help but want to give Su Ruiming a thumbs - up. This guy really didn't take the situation into consideration.
Could the Su Family afford to provoke the Feng Family?
However, his words actually tied him to Xu Mu. If the Feng Family really targeted the Su Family in the future, he definitely couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
"What are you?"
Feng Jian stared at Su Ruiming. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he heard a familiar voice.
"Boss Xu! You're really not being nice! You invited so many enterprises in Yang City, but you didn't invite our Dai Family?"
A young man walked in with a smiling face.
Behind him were two middle - aged men.
Xu Mu looked at the young man, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
The people from the Dai Family finally showed up.
They were the villainous family in "The Dragon King Descends".

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?!

invincible power, Gu Changge transmigrates into a fantasy world, bound to a sign-in system that grants him cultivation rewards and various peerless treasures daily. While others struggle desperately to break through their cultivation realms, he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao, becoming a reclusive Emperor whose true strength even he himself cannot fathom. Originally planning to lie low and retire peacefully on Purple Bamboo Peak, the system suddenly issues a new task — take on disciples. With no other choice, Gu Changge casually picks up a few disciples: The eldest disciple, born with a War God Constitution, is thrown a copy of "War God Stratagems" by him, and ends up conquering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, becoming a peerless War God who sweeps across the cosmos. The second disciple, possessing a Chaos Sword Body, can break all techniques with a single sword, his swordsmanship unmatched throughout history. He points his sword at the heavens: "My master said, the sword and the man stand together. If the sword perishes... my master will give me another one." The third disciple, a reborn Empress who returns to her throne, her elegance and grace overshadowing all beings. And without anyone noticing, his own sect, the Qingxuan Sect, has become the number one sect on the continent. Looking at these unbelievably formidable disciples, Gu Changge, holding the "Primordial Purple Qi" he just signed in for, falls into deep thought: — Wasn't this supposed to be a peaceful retirement? How did I become the ultimate master?!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
