Wu Tian also noticed Xu Mu at this time, a mocking smile appearing on his face.
He was a man who knew his own limits; his current strength was indeed inferior to Xu Mu's.
But in a place like this, Xu Mu wouldn't dare attack him either. The two of them could only clash using legal means.
Unfortunately for Xu Mu, in this aspect, Wu Tian was much stronger.
"President Xu! Welcome, it is my honor to be able to invite you this time."
A slightly plump middle-aged man walked over with a smile.
With his appearance, many of the businessmen present all came forward to greet them.
Xu Mu stood beside Xu Ningbing and scanned the middle-aged man in front of him with his Eye of God.
Name: Qian Shan
Identity: Chairman of Jinling Qian's Holdings
Favorability: -1
Destiny Level: 1 (Max Level 10)
Seeing this name, Xu Mu nodded inwardly. He had heard of the Qian family.
They were the third-largest enterprise in Jiangnan. One must know that Jiangnan was much wealthier than Jiangbei.
The third-ranked enterprise here would be number one if placed in Jiangbei.
However, the Xu family had been advancing by leaps and bounds recently. The hot-selling drugs and the acquisition of several companies from the Dai family had not yet been disclosed in their financial reports.
If everything was added up, surpassing the Qian family should be possible.
"Mr. Qian, since you invited me personally, there is no reason for me not to come."
Xu Ningbing wore a polite, official fake smile.
"Miss Xu, I am Zhang Kai from Jiangnan Shipping Group, pleased to meet you."
"Recently, the Xu family's medicines have sparked heated discussions nationwide. At this rate, your future is limitless."
"President Xu, I am a loyal fan of your Yang Qi Pill!"
...
Facing the compliments from the surrounding businessmen, Xu Ningbing maintained a professional smile.
She had long been accustomed to such occasions.
"President Xu, please follow me. We have a distinguished guest today."
Qian Shan invited with a smile.
Xu Ningbing patted Xu Mu's arm, signaling him to follow.
Led by Qian Shan, they arrived deep inside the banquet hall, at a table by the window.
Two people were sitting there. One was a young woman, about twenty-five years old.
With dyed, permed hair, wearing a gorgeous evening gown and light makeup, she could definitely be considered a beauty.
There was also a young man, about thirty years old. He was currently holding a red wine glass, looking through the window at the neon lights outside.
This man had a buzz cut, wore black stud earrings, and looked quite handsome. He exuded an inexplicable aura.
As a result, no one else approached the tables near him.
Qian Shan came up to this young man and said in a low voice, "Young Master Cui, they are here."
Xu Ningbing couldn't help but narrow her eyes upon seeing Qian Shan's demeanor.
As the head of the third-ranked enterprise in Jiangnan, he wouldn't act like this even when facing provincial leaders.
Let alone a young man.
It was a no-brainer that this young man likely came from a hidden family.
Xu Mu used his Eye of God to check this young man's identity.
Name: Cui Yunshen
Identity: Son of the Cui Family Head
Favorability: 0
Destiny Level: 2 (Max Level 10)
Seeing this name, Xu Mu nodded inwardly. It seemed he had guessed correctly.
He was indeed the son of the Cui family, a hidden family in Jiangnan.
In the original plot, after Ye Chen controlled the Xu family and took over Jiangbei, he began to set his sights on controlling the even wealthier Jiangnan.
The first one he dealt with was the hidden Cui family.
The reason was simple: Cui Yunshen had taken a fancy to Xu Ningbing.
Xu Mu revealed a smile. His appearance had changed too much of the plot.
Now, he was about to face the Cui family in front of him.
However, times had changed. In Jiangnan, only the Qin family could be considered a major family now.
As for the Cui family in front of him, in Xu Mu's eyes, they belonged at the kids' table.
Cui Yunshen's gaze carefully sized up Xu Ningbing. Although he had seen her videos and photos online, seeing her in reality, he found her to be even more beautiful.
Especially the two massive mounds on her chest, which put immense pressure on the buttons of her uniform.
He had investigated Xu Ningbing's life; ever since her student days, she had been at the top tier in terms of her figure.
So they were definitely real.
Seeing Xu Ningbing, more than a dozen ways to play with her instantly popped into Cui Yunshen's mind.
The permed woman next to him glared at Xu Ningbing maliciously, then picked up her wine glass and looked out the window.
"Sit!"
Cui Yunshen smiled at Xu Ningbing.
Qian Shan also smiled and said, "Miss Xu, please have a seat."
Both Xu Ningbing and Xu Mu sat down at the table.
Cui Yunshen suddenly frowned. He looked at Xu Mu and asked, "Who are you? Did I tell you to sit?"
"Young Master Cui, this is Xu Mu, Miss Xu's younger brother."
Qian Shan naturally knew of Xu Mu's reputation as a typical playboy, and had no good impression of him.
"Oh, so it's Miss Xu's brother. Then you can sit."
Cui Yunshen smiled at Xu Ningbing.
Xu Ningbing said with a calm expression, "Mr. Qian, who is this?"
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce him. This is Cui Yunshen of the Cui family. It's not a secret, so I'll just speak the truth."
Cui Yunshen paused and said, "I control seventy percent of the shares in Qian's Holdings, but I have a separate contract with the Cui family. Ninety percent of my shares belong to the Cui family."
Xu Ningbing was not surprised. Seeing his attitude towards this man just now, she had already guessed most of it.
"By the way, Miss Xu, the Cui family is a hidden family. With your Xu family's status in Jiangbei, you should know what this means."
Cui Yunshen continued.
Xu Ningbing nodded slightly. "In other words, it is Mr. Cui who is looking for me this time?"
"That's right."
Cui Yunshen nodded calmly. "Miss Xu, I heard that you are not yet married?"
Hearing just this one question, Xu Ningbing guessed his purpose. "I am indeed not married, but I have a boyfriend."
This was an excuse she often used. Most people would back down upon hearing she had a boyfriend.
"A boyfriend is not important."
Cui Yunshen wore a smile. "I don't like to beat around the bush. After watching your videos, I was absolutely stunned by your heavenly beauty. Seeing you today, I find you even more beautiful than in the videos."
The permed woman sitting next to Cui Yunshen looked even more displeased.
"What is Mr. Cui trying to say?"
Xu Ningbing asked indifferently.
"I want Miss Xu to marry me. That way, we will be a family, and I will give the green light to all of the Xu family's developments in Jiangnan."
Cui Yunshen said while looking at Xu Ningbing.
"Miss Xu, being able to marry into a hidden family is a blessing for your Xu family."
Qian Shan chimed in from the side.
"As I said just now, I have a boyfriend, and I love him very much. Please stop joking, Mr. Cui."
Xu Ningbing's expression turned somewhat cold.
"I am not joking."
Saying this, Cui Yunshen looked at the permed woman beside him. "Xiaolin, tell her what the benefits of marrying me are."
Before the woman beside him could speak, Xu Ningbing spoke first, "You are already married?"
"That's right, so what? Our hidden families don't have ID cards and are not bound by the law. Besides, we are just following tradition."
Cui Yunshen looked at Xu Ningbing and said, "Come. With me, there is no distinction between wives and concubines. I am completely fair to every single one of you. You and your six sisters will get along wonderfully."

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.

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."

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
