Xu Mu and Ye Tong were sitting at the dining table. Because of the camera, Ye Tong was slightly nervous.
"It's okay, we're usually like this."
Xu Mu smiled at Ye Tong.
[Affection +10]
Ye Tong nodded lightly. Earlier in the living room, there hadn't been any intimate interaction between them, nor had they talked about company matters.
Thinking of this, she relaxed a bit.
After the meal, Ye Tong washed the dishes while Xu Mu headed upstairs first.
It wasn't long before Ye Tong also arrived in the bedroom.
Since Ye Tong's relatives hadn't left yet, Xu Mu wasn't in the mood for anything intimate today.
He thought it was fine to give himself a break.
Even though his body was so strong, he still needed to protect it.
...
Early the next morning.
Xu Mu opened his eyes, and Ye Tong woke up too.
Originally, Ye Tong wanted to make breakfast for Xu Mu, but he refused and told her to rest well.
[Affection +20]
Ye Tong was filled with emotion. She suddenly felt that she couldn't continue like this.
Staying at home all the time wasn't helping Xu Mu.
In fact, she already had a plan in mind, which was to find Wang Weiliang.
This man was an elder of the Ye family back in the day.
Her major in school was also in chemical pharmaceuticals, which corresponded with the family business.
But this industry was too costly. When Xu Mu asked her what she wanted to do, she directly gave up on this major.
But now, with Wang Weiliang at the Xu family, she planned to talk to him today.
Even if it meant working on the front lines.
...
Xu Mu made breakfast, ate a portion himself, and left some for Ye Tong.
After everything was done, he drove to the company.
He had just sat down when Xu Ningbing sent a message asking him to come to the chairman's office on the top floor.
Xu Mu got up and went to the top floor.
After knocking and entering the office, besides Xu Shou and Xu Ningbing, there was another person, Chen Bei.
"You're here?"
Xu Shou smiled when he saw Xu Mu.
Xu Ningbing squinted slightly; this Xu Mu was becoming more and more arrogant.
He had promised her yesterday that he would draw the shape of the celestial treasures for her, but he hadn't done it yet.
Did she have to beg him?
"Yes."
Xu Mu replied and sat on the sofa.
"What happened last night, Old Chen already told me. Qian Gang is truly shameless, using such despicable means."
Xu Shou's face was dark.
"I had no choice at the time but to agree to give him fake data. I was originally thinking of dragging it out for a few days."
Chen Bei shook his head helplessly.
"Xiao Mu, what do you think?" Xu Shou asked.
"We can't give them too much time. We need to make them anxious. I think we should spread the news that the preparations are complete and the approval is coming soon. Then we'll start the listing."
Xu Mu thought for a moment and said.
"Good! If they hear this news, they'll definitely speed up and start production."
Xu Shou smiled slightly.
Chen Bei stood up at this point and nodded to Xu Shou, "Chairman, I know what to do. I'll head down now."
Xu Shou nodded.
After Chen Bei left, Xu Mu sent the recording from yesterday to Xu Shou.
"This is a recording I spent a lot of money on, the information Chen Bei told you was only when he was awake. This recording has information from when he was unconscious."
Xu Mu leaned back on the sofa and spoke.
Xu Shou clicked on the recording, listening along with Xu Ningbing.
When they heard the conversation between Feng Yue and Qian Gang, both of their expressions became somewhat uneasy.
"How could you end up like this, Qian Gang? Truly disgraceful."
Xu Shou sneered.
"A sycophant is the least deserving of sympathy; in the end, they end up with nothing." Xu Mu folded his arms and shook his head gently.
Xu Ningbing and Xu Shou glanced at Xu Mu. It seemed that he had been seeking out Feng Yue not because he liked her.
...
Qian Gang took a few days of sick leave and did not go to work.
But in the Xu Group, he had worked for decades and still had considerable connections.
Today at noon, he received news that the Xu Group's drug approval had come through.
With this, it might not be long before they go public.
Qian Gang immediately went downstairs, preparing to find Feng Yue to share this news with her.
He reached the underground garage and had just opened the car door when someone suddenly rushed out from behind.
The man wrapped his arm around Qian Gang's shoulder from behind.
Qian Gang could clearly feel a dagger piercing his clothes, pressing against his waist.
"Who... who are you?"
Qian Gang asked, trembling.
"Sit in the passenger seat, I'll take you to see my boss."
The young man laughed as he spoke.
Qian Gang broke into a cold sweat. Despite working most of his life, he had never encountered such a situation.
Terrified, he complied.
The young man sat in the driver's seat and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, put your phone on the dashboard."
Qian Gang continued to comply.
The vehicle eventually stopped at Li Feipeng's villa, which specialized in gourmet foods.
Seeing this, Qian Gang already knew who wanted to see him.
After getting out of the car, Lin Yang and Li Feipeng were sitting at a stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea.
Li Feipeng stood up with a smile to greet him, "Mr. Qian, I apologize for bringing you here in such a manner."
"Wasn't there a one-week deadline?"
Qian Gang feigned composure.
"Last night, with Feng Yue's cooperation, you should have obtained it, right?"
Lin Yang also stood up and walked over to ask.
"How... how do you know?" Qian Gang's eyes showed some fear.
"I didn't know just now, but I do now."
Lin Yang grinned, "So? You got it but haven't handed it over to me, what are you planning?"
"I... I thought Feng Yue had already given it to you," Qian Gang said. "Didn't you say she was your woman?"
"She is my woman, but this woman doesn't listen very well."
Lin Yang pointed at Qian Gang, "Hurry up and hand it over. If you give it to me now, I can give you a sum of money."
Qian Gang squinted slightly, then finally took out his phone, showing the fake data Feng Yue had modified overnight.
Li Feipeng snatched the phone and looked at the data, revealing a smile.
He then sent the data to his own phone.
"Go back, once we make money, we'll give you a bonus first."
Lin Yang waved at Qian Gang.
"My blackmail material..."
"Rest assured, we're engaging in a fair deal; we absolutely won't leak it."
Lin Yang said with a smile.
Qian Gang nodded and then drove away.
Li Feipeng looked at the information, his face filled with excitement, "Mr. Lin! We're going to make it big. I'm going to notify the department right now to prepare for full-scale production!"
"Are you crazy? You're going to start full-scale production without testing the authenticity of the drug first?"
Lin Yang glanced at Li Feipeng.
"You're right, sir. I got too excited." Li Feipeng chuckled, "Let's find someone first to produce a few samples according to this method."
"Alright."
Lin Yang nodded. He could sense the terrifying potential of this drug.
Once we have the money, we'll start dealing with the Su Family.
By then, Su Yaya, my unattainable dream, will surely come crying to beg me.
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
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."
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
