"Uncle Shen."
Shi Yuanyuan smiled innocently, "Godfather, look, how is my drawing?"
Shen Yuan was silent for a second.
"Grandpa Gou said that Daddy always likes to fight with Uncle Chu Yang!"
"They even fought until they foamed at the mouth!"
Shi Yuanyuan blurted out.
Xiao Ce's face twitched, and he quickly covered Shi Yuanyuan's mouth.
Shi Zhihan: "..."
Young Master Shen, what on earth did you guys teach Yuanyuan?
Shen Yuan's mouth twitched. Look at your attitudes.
What's with those expressions!?
Chu Yang and I have a pure friendship, alright?
"Thank you, Yuanyuan!"
Shen Yuan rubbed Shi Yuanyuan's head, "You drew it really well, it's just... don't draw it next time!"
"Okay!"
Shi Yuanyuan nodded. "If Godfather says not to draw, I won't draw. I don't really like drawing anyway!"
Shi Zhihan also walked over, a hint of shyness on her face, "Young Master Shen!"
Shen Yuan: "????"
What are you blushing like a boiling teapot for!
Shi Zhihan: Sigh!
I finally saw Xiao Ce again.
He also helped me get my revenge.
It's just...
After not seeing each other for so many years, once everything was settled...
He shamelessly insisted on having his way with me.
He's almost worn me out lately!
Shi Zhihan handed Shen Yuan a gift box, "Mr. Shen, thank you for saving me and Yuanyuan."
"This is a gift from our family, please don't mind it."
Shi Zhihan said.
Shen Yuan took the gift box, opened it, and saw a red scarf.
Shen Yuan: "????"
Shi Zhihan: ∑(O_O;)
Xiao Ce: "(￣(エ)￣)ゞ
What the heck is this!?
A scarf, crooked and misshapen, with several holes in it.
Shen Yuan's mouth twitched twice. This is a gift?
"Godfather, I traded for this!"
Shi Yuanyuan shouted, "Godfather saved me, this is my most precious thing!"
"Godfather, the gift Mommy and Daddy got wasn't good. When you give a gift, it has to be your most precious thing!"
Shi Yuanyuan said with a serious face.
The expressions on Shen Yuan and the others softened.
Yeah!
A scarf was already Shi Yuanyuan's most precious possession.
"Good girl, Yuanyuan!"
"Godfather really likes it!"
Shen Yuan rubbed Shi Yuanyuan's head. "Godfather will definitely wear it in winter!"
Shi Zhihan's tears were about to fall.
Xiao Ce clenched his fists.
That bastard Shi family!
I really want to resurrect them just to kill them again.
Shen Yuan smiled and turned to Xiao Ce. "How are you handling the matters with the Chen and Shi families?"
Xiao Ce spoke grimly, "It's all taken care of. The Chen family is bankrupt. All the funds of Chen Erhe and Chen Ru, father and son, have been confiscated!"
"Those who deserve prison sentences will get them..."
"Those who don't can go wander the streets!"
"As for the Shi family..."
"I've completely taken them down!"
"Shen Yuan, do you want half of the Shi family's assets?"
"If you want it, I'll transfer it to you immediately!"
Xiao Ce's serious demeanor really made people see him in a new light.
"No need. If you really want to help me..."
Shen Yuan gave a crooked smile. "Then promise me one thing!"
Xiao Ce looked at Shen Yuan's crooked smirk, his face twitching.
This smile reminds me of that bastardly wretched thing again.
Why is your smile so similar to his!
"Speak!"
Xiao Ce said proudly.
"Kill me!"
Shen Yuan grinned.
Xiao Ce: "..."
Are you fucking sick in the head!?
"No way!"
Xiao Ce shook his head.
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Then let's change the condition!"
"Speak!"
Xiao Ce cupped his fists. "I am the War God. With just one command from me, a hundred thousand..."
"Drop the hundred thousand thing, always going on about a hundred thousand..."
"What, are a hundred thousand coming back to patronize your business?"
Shen Yuan rolled his eyes.
Chu Yang burst out laughing.
Xiao Ce, you don't understand anything!
Old Shen's meaning is... are you taking clients?
Having a hundred thousand soldiers boost your sales performance?
"Let me beat you up!"
Shen Yuan was full of smiles. "Whenever I think of it, I can beat you for as long as I want. Whenever I feel like hitting someone, I'll hit you!"
Xiao Ce's face darkened with imaginary lines. "This condition of yours... I am a dignified War God, with a hundred thousand under my command..."
"Give it a rest, just tell me if you'll do it or not?" Shen Yuan gave him a side-eye.
Xiao Ce's imposing aura instantly weakened. "Fine!"
"Then that's settled..."
"Xiao Ce, come with me!"
"Uncle Gou, take care of Yuanyuan and Shi Zhihan!"
Shen Yuan shouted to Uncle Gou, "I'm taking Xiao Ce to play something else!"
Uncle Gou nodded with a look of grief.
Is the young master no longer satisfied with just one?
He's already starting to look for a mistress!
And it's someone with a wife and daughter acting as the mistress...
Young master, is this reasonable?
Chu Yang smiled mischievously; he already understood what Shen Yuan was going to say.
Xiao Ce looked completely bewildered as Chu Yang dragged him away.
The two of them went straight to the backyard garden of the villa.
Shen Yuan lay directly on a lounge chair.
Chu Yang followed suit and lay down on one too.
Xiao Ce: "..."
There are only two lounge chairs, I don't have one!
I... guess I'll just stand.
"I know what you want to ask."
Xiao Ce spoke up before Shen Yuan could say anything. "Six years ago..."
"I had just passed the War God assessment and become a War God!"
"Unexpectedly, while pursuing a Japanese ninja..."
"I was ambushed here!"
"I fought twelve of them single-handedly, and in the end, I killed them all!"
Xiao Ce sighed. "I was severely injured, and Zhihan picked me up and took me back."
"Then, there was an emergency at the border, so I went back!"
"But what I didn't expect was that Zhihan never contacted me!"
"And I... didn't contact her either!"
Xiao Ce looked heartbroken. "If I had known she..."
"Pfft, scumbag!" Shen Yuan and Chu Yang said in unison.
Xiao Ce: "..."
Shen Yuan raised his middle finger. "You went to the border, you didn't die!"
Xiao Ce scratched his hair. "I couldn't get away from over there!"
"You're high-ranking, you could save up a month of vacation in one or two years!"
Shen Yuan said disdainfully, "Six years. You could have saved up at least three months of vacation, and you couldn't come back?"
Xiao Ce: "..."
"I am a War God, a War God, a War God!"
Xiao Ce emphasized, "I can't just leave as I please, I don't have vacations!"
Shen Yuan spread his hands. "Oh, then we'll believe you!"
Xiao Ce: If you two supposedly believe me, at least fix your gazes!
What's with those suspicious looks?
"Besides..."
Shen Yuan suddenly looked up. "Neither of us asked about your past!"
Xiao Ce: Ah!?
You weren't asking about that!?
Chu Yang chuckled, "Old Xiao, wanna join our crew?"
Xiao Ce: (O_o)??
Join your crew!?
Crap, these two guys must be doing something illegal and criminal behind the scenes.
These two want to pull me in and make me their protective umbrella!
I...
I'd rather die than submit!
"Xiao Ce, Border War God, Epic-level Child of Destiny!"
Shen Yuan stretched lazily.
"What the heck!?"
Xiao Ce looked totally confused. "Do you think I'm a protagonist in a novel?"
"I have a System!"
Shen Yuan pointed to his temple.
Xiao Ce's face twitched. You have a System?
Chu Yang: Hehe!
Yuanzi, Old Shen...
You really aren't going to hide it at all, are you?
"Why do I always get the feeling that you're leaking the system's existence on purpose just to get yourself killed?"
Chu Yang stroked his chin, his gaze lingering intently on Shen Yuan.
"Hey, hey, hey! I'll have you know I'm a War God! With a single command, a hundred thousand..."
"Never mind, I'm actually pretty damn smart!"
"Shen Yuan, you've been reading way too many web novels, haven't you?"

I'm just a traveler who enjoys collecting interesting creatures," Chen Miemie said.

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...

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."
. 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!"
