Ding, an epic-level Child of Destiny has been discovered!
The system's voice suddenly rang out.
Shen Yuan looked at Xiao Ce, silent for two seconds. System, can I return my Eye of Destiny?
I can deal with low-level Children of Destiny even without the plotline!
But a high-level Child of Destiny... I can't even see the plot yet!
Ding! Once sold, no returns or exchanges!
No warranties, and we are not responsible for any subsequent psychological trauma!
The system said calmly, Of course, it can be upgraded!
Shen Yuan smiled faintly. How much to upgrade?
Ding! Two hundred and ninety million!
The system was incredibly calm.
Shen Yuan's smile instantly shattered.
He felt his mentality collapse.
Sys, what about your leg-breaking discount promotion?
Shen Yuan plastered on a smile again, grinning like a dog. How about three hundred?
Ding! Get lost!
You got it!
Shen Yuan put away his blooming smile and looked at Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce turned to look at Shen Yuan, his whole body trembling, his eyes full of urgency. Is everything you just said true? Yuanyuan, she...
Scumbag!
Bah!
Shen Yuan said disdainfully, Abandoning your wife and daughter, and you still dare to come make a scene at my birthday banquet...
Xiao Ce: ...
The crowd: ...
This guy is doomed!
Daring to cause trouble at Young Master Shen's birthday banquet, he is absolutely finished.
Shen Yuan walked straight down holding Shi Yuanyuan. Here to find your daughter?
Yes!
Xiao Ce looked at Shi Yuanyuan, his eyes full of tenderness.
You still have the nerve?
You scumbag who pulls up his pants and refuses to take responsibility!
Shen Yuan said disdainfully, Shi Yuanyuan is my daughter now!
You...
This is my daughter!
Xiao Ce said.
Just because you say she's yours makes her yours?
Shen Yuan gave him a side-eye, directly arguing back. Have you done a paternity test?
No! Xiao Ce's momentum instantly weakened.
If you haven't done one, then you're a human trafficker!
Also, why the heck did you come back?
Do you have transfer orders?
You are committing the crime of being AWOL!
Shen Yuan raised his middle finger, unforgiving when he had the upper hand!
I do have that! Xiao Ce said hurriedly, pulling out a transfer order.
Shen Yuan: ...
Damn!
Why do you actually have one?
Aren't the Gods of War in novels supposed to return secretly on their own?
Why aren't you playing by the rules?
Why do you even have a transfer order?
Shen Yuan pinched the piece of paper, flipping it over and reading it three times.
Very good, very reasonable, and very legal!
Complete with official seals, standard format...
Alright then, badass!
Shen Yuan threw the transfer order back to Xiao Ce, taking a half step back while holding Shi Yuanyuan. But... Yuanyuan is my daughter!
Xiao Ce: ...
He looked at his daughter timidly hiding in Shen Yuan's arms, his heart clenching into a knot.
Yuanyuan, I'm Daddy...
Xiao Ce said.
Are you really my daddy?
Shi Yuanyuan said timidly.
Shen Yuan held out a finger. Xiao Ce, I know your identity, and you can find out mine too!
So, if you want your daughter...
One condition!
Shen Yuan smiled faintly.
Xiao Ce gave him a side-eye. A hundred conditions would be fine!
Oh, then beat me to death!
Shen Yuan's tone was flat, as if he were just talking about having a meal later.
Xiao Ce: What the heck!?
What does beating you to death have to do with taking my daughter away?
Chu Yang covered his face.
I can finally see it, this guy Shen Yuan is really asking for death!
From the very beginning, he wanted me to beat him to death!
One word, are you going to hit me or not?
Shen Yuan asked.
Xiao Ce was helpless. If you had done something to betray the country, I would definitely kill you, but right now...
Boring!
Shen Yuan waved his hand, looking disappointed.
I just want to go back and be Homelander, why is it so hard?
Those are the Shi family people!
Shen Yuan yawned and pointed at Shi Zhichuan and his companion. Bullying your wife, abusing your daughter...
Xiao Ce gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with a chilling murderous aura. The Shi family, what a fine Shi family!
Do me a favor...
Shen Yuan said, Take care of Chen Erhe from the Chen family for me while you're at it. I'll have Uncle Gou draw him out!
Uncle Gou: ????
I, this old man, had already started laying out the plans. If you had just said so earlier, I wouldn't have had to make a move!
Alright, no problem!
Xiao Ce nodded solemnly.
Shen Yuan walked down and handed Shi Yuanyuan to Xiao Ce. Be a good girl, Yuanyuan. This is your biological father!
Shi Yuanyuan's little eyes lit up.
Xiao Ce's eyes softened, and he hugged Shi Yuanyuan tightly. Yuanyuan, I'm Daddy!
Shi Yuanyuan lifted her little head, hesitated for a moment, and slowly reached out her small hands to hug Xiao Ce's neck.
Xiao Ce's eyes became incredibly gentle. He carefully held Shi Yuanyuan, afraid of hurting her.
His voice choked with sobs. Yuanyuan, I'm sorry, Daddy is late. From now on, Daddy will never leave you and Mommy again.
Shen Yuan shrugged. He really hated this kind of melodrama.
He strolled over to Shi Zhichuan. I heard that you are in charge of the Shi family now?
Shi Zhichuan was so scared his legs went weak, almost collapsing to the ground. Young Master Shen, I... I-I'm just temporarily looking after family matters. I don't have the final say, I don't...
Tsk, tsk, tsk. Abusing your niece, bullying your sister...
I don't care about that!
But...
Yuanyuan is also a member of the Shi family!
Shen Yuan's mouth twisted into a smirk. Her damn... ahem, her mom is also a member of the Shi family!
Xiao Ce suddenly looked up. In a daze, he felt as if he had seen that idiot!
Why does his smile look so familiar?
Half of your family assets!
Shen Yuan held out a finger. As compensation for Yuanyuan and Shi Zhihan. What do you think?
Shi Zhichuan's face turned green.
Half of the family assets? Young Master Shen, that's too much!
Shi Zhichuan said cautiously.
Shen Yuan tilted his head. Very well then... Uncle Gou, snipe the Shi family's businesses at all costs!
Everyone present, who wants a piece of the pie?
How about we divide up the Shi family together?
Shen Yuan sat down heavily behind him in a domineering posture!
Chu Yang moved with a whoosh, shifting positions to pull over a chair.
Shen Yuan sat down steadily.
Yangzi, not bad!
When we get back, I'll beat you up a few more times!
Shen Yuan said cheerfully.
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. I'm really asking for it.
He looked at Xiao Ce.
This guy should be joining in too, right?
After all...
Who the heck could have imagined that this idiot Shen Yuan, having a system, actually wouldn't hide it?
Is this a joke?
If it were me, I'd secretly get myself killed!
That would guarantee smoothly exchanging for villain points.
After all, I've just started cultivating, I'm still not good enough...
Slip me some knockout drops, then shoot me in the head...
Chu Yang: ...
Oh no, is Old Shen really thinking like this right now?
The eyes of everyone present lit up.
What!?
The Young Master of the Shen family is going to take the initiative and lead us to take down the Shi family together?
In unison, flames of greed sparked in everyone's eyes.
Young Master Shen, go ahead, destroy the Shi family!
You eat the meat, we'll drink the soup!
Shi Zhichuan was frightened pale. I'll give it, I'll give it!
His shout cracked. I'll go back right now, release Shi Zhihan, and hand over the family assets!
Better to cut off an arm to survive...
Otherwise, my Shi family will be wiped out.
Shen Yuan smiled faintly and looked at Xiao Ce.
Xiao Ce stared into Shen Yuan's eyes, lost in thought.
Bro, just say something!
I can't read what your look is supposed to mean!
Besides, we are both grown men, so let's not do this whole telepathic soulmate thing, alright?
I am straight! I am a straight guy!
