Su Xiyan was really putting herself in a tough spot! Chen Shuo thought to himself, thankful he hadn't said anything else. Otherwise, Su Yuanying's expression wouldn't have been so pleasant.
With Su Yuanying's powerful aura, Chen Shuo would likely have been in serious trouble.
The saying that big shots are all daughter-obsessed certainly rang true.
At this moment, the now-calm Su Xiyan was just grateful she had worn a loose and long coat.
She curled up inside her coat and naturally sat down on the edge of Chen Shuo's bed.
In Su Yuanying's mind, Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan were already in an intimate relationship.
He could only sigh inwardly — his little girl was growing up so fast!
However, compared to her previous cold and emotionless demeanor, his daughter now seemed warmer and more lively, more like a girl her age should be. Su Yuanying wasn't a fool; he could see that Su Xiyan was much happier now than before.
A daughter's happiness is a father's greatest wish!
Although Chen Shuo had some minor flaws, they didn't overshadow his merits! If his daughter liked him, that was enough!
Su Yuanying sat on the sofa, exuding the air of a big shot.
Su Xiyan sat on the edge of the bed, her aura cool and crisp.
Chen Shuo felt like a schoolboy who had done something wrong, standing in the room, unsure where to sit.
The sudden silence in the air was what Chen Shuo feared most; he was so nervous his toes were practically digging into the floor.
Had he really told Su Xiyan he'd wait for her in the room when he was drunk?
Chen Shuo tried hard to remember. Maybe... probably... it seemed... he should have... said that?
If he had said it, it wasn't a big deal. His relationship with Su Xiyan was just one step away from being complete. There was nothing to be embarrassed about saying something to enhance their relationship as a couple in love.
The key issue was that Su Xiyan, not knowing there were others in the room, had blurted it out right at the door.
What made it worse was that the person in the room was Su Yuanying...
Su Yuanying seemed to see through Chen Shuo's inner thoughts and eased his embarrassment: "Why are you just standing there? Find a place to sit down, and let's continue our discussion."
Before Su Xiyan arrived, Chen Shuo had been sitting on the edge of his bed. Now, his spot had been taken over by Su Xiyan.
With Su Yuanying ordering him to sit down, Chen Shuo thought he'd better sit with Su Yuanying!
Just as he was about to sit down on the sofa next to Su Yuanying, the latter drawled, "Everything in this hotel is good, except the sofa is too narrow. It's a bit tight for two people, but just right for one person."
Chen Shuo: "..."
This was as good as a direct order!
The next second, Chen Shuo sat down next to Su Xiyan.
Now, Su Xiyan was happy, and Su Yuanying was satisfied. Only Chen Shuo felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He didn't know what exactly he had said to Su Xiyan in his drunken, muddled state.
Judging by Su Xiyan's expression, Chen Shuo's drunken words must have been quite... intense?
Su Xiyan asked, "Dad, what secret conversation were you having with Chen Shuo? You didn't even tell me about it?"
Su Yuanying replied, "It wasn't really a secret conversation. Since you're here now, I'll briefly explain it again!"
"To sum it up in one sentence — someone wants to prevent this wedding from going smoothly."
Su Xiyan: "Oh, that? Chen Shuo already told me about it. So, Dad, you know about it too?"
"With Dad's capabilities, I don't believe anyone would dare to cause trouble right under your nose."
Su Yuanying looked at his daughter, then finally fixed his gaze on Chen Shuo: "Let Chen Shuo handle this matter!"
"With Chen Shuo around, I can relax and enjoy my niece's wedding wine tomorrow!"
The implication was clear — he was treating Chen Shuo as his successor.
It was obvious to anyone that Su Yuanying had an undisguised fondness for Chen Shuo.
What surprised Su Xiyan was that her father had entrusted this task to Chen Shuo.
It was well known that the wedding guests were all important figures! If even the slightest problem occurred during any part of the wedding, it would affect the reputation and honor of the entire Su family.
For such an important matter, her father had casually handed it over to Chen Shuo?
How much trust did this show in Chen Shuo?
Su Xiyan even felt a bit jealous because, from childhood to adulthood, her father had never entrusted her with such an important task.
It seemed that the future son-in-law was more cherished than the biological daughter!
Though these were her thoughts, the irrepressible smile on Su Xiyan's face was enough to prove that she was actually quite satisfied with the situation!
As Su Xiyan's mood improved, Chen Shuo's system also appeared.
Chen Shuo suddenly remembered something. His system's virtual panel would automatically read all the detailed information of anyone he looked at. But why couldn't the system panel automatically read Su Yuanying's information when he looked at him?
Could it be that this was the power of a big shot? Even the system treated big shots differently?
While chatting, Chen Shuo looked at Su Yuanying and internally commanded the system:
[System, read all information about Su Yuanying.]
The system's mechanical voice sounded in Chen Shuo's mind:
[Received host's command, reading target information.]
[Progress: 20%]
[Progress: 50%]
[Progress: 99%]
[Ding! Information reading complete!]
Then, Su Yuanying's information appeared line by line on the system panel.
Chen Shuo marveled inwardly: As expected of a big shot, even his information required a command to be read.
[Name: Su Yuanying.]
[Age: 52 years old.]
[Identity: Demon Hunter.]
[Rank: Platinum Tier 3.]
[...]
Chen Shuo didn't read a single word of the remaining content!
His mind was filled with just one line: [Rank: Platinum Tier 3.]
Platinum Tier 3!!
Su Yuanying was actually Platinum Tier 3!
In other words, he was about to break through to the Legendary realm??
Chen Shuo felt like he had stumbled upon a precious gem while walking on the beach!
He was so excited he could barely contain himself!!
Su Yuanying was actually Platinum Tier 3??
This meant that if he could establish a good relationship with Su Yuanying, when he advanced to become a Legendary Demon Hunter, couldn't he help Chen Shuo reverse his bloodline and turn back into a human?
Chen Shuo could barely contain his wild joy!
And Su Xiyan, that girl, hadn't told him about this??
Chen Shuo tried hard to calm himself down, thinking that although he now knew Su Yuanying's rank, he couldn't let the father and daughter know that he was aware of it.
Otherwise, how could he cling to Su Yuanying's coattails?
If Su Yuanying knew he had ulterior motives, given his personality, he probably wouldn't treat Chen Shuo as well as he did now.
To firmly grasp onto the coattails of Su Yuanying, the future Legendary Demon Hunter, the first step was to secure his position as the "future son-in-law of the Su family."
However, come to think of it, clinging to Su Xiyan's legs would definitely be more comfortable than clinging to Su Yuanying's.
Chen Shuo's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Su Xiyan's long legs.
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."

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body.
