Shen Yuan stretched his back.
According to the usual tropes, the famous scene of the Dragon King's return should be coming soon, right?
When the time comes...
"Maybe the Matchmaker went offline, and love is now managed by the God of Wealth..."
His phone rang.
He looked down.
Lu Xiao (A bit goofy)
"Lu Xiao!"
Shen Yuan answered the call and immediately cursed, "Damn you, why didn't you show up on my birthday?"
"I went to chase after Wen Xun!"
Lu Xiao's voice was very gentle, "I love her!"
"Love my ass!"
Shen Yuan said in a bad mood, "How are things between you and Wen Xun now?"
"Great!"
"I already revealed my identity!"
"And she stopped talking to me!"
"I racked my brains and finally managed to make up with her!"
Lu Xiao's voice sounded a bit aggrieved, "Young Master Shen, this is all your fault. You almost made me lose my love!"
"You made me have no love!"
Lu Xiao's tone was filled with grief and indignation.
"Get lost!"
Shen Yuan snapped, "I don't have time to joke with you. What do you want? If it's about business, go find Uncle Gou!"
"No, Old Shen, Brother Yuan."
Lu Xiao suddenly got anxious. "It's my brother, it's about my brother!"
Shen Yuan paused, "Your brother?"
"What happened to your brother?"
Shen Yuan asked curiously.
"He became a simp!"
Lu Xiao said.
Shen Yuan's face twitched. "Aren't you a simp right now?"
"I simped successfully, so I'm not a simp!" Lu Xiao blew his top. "I am not Fei Yangyang (Simp)!"
"Weren't you planning to be Fei Yangyang (Simp) before?" Shen Yuan asked back.
Lu Xiao: "Hehe, I am now Xi Yangyang (Winner)!"
"Oh, so your brother is now Fei Yangyang (Simp)?"
Shen Yuan smiled playfully, "What's wrong?"
"Brother Shen, do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?"
Lu Xiao sighed. "You should know that the most famous spectacle in the Magic City is the massive simp from my Lu family, right?"
Shen Yuan: "..."
He really didn't know about this.
"My brother fell in love with a woman and is madly obsessed with her!"
Lu Xiao explained in detail.
Lu Xiao's brother, Lu Yong!
In order to win Rong Yan's favor, he kept throwing money at her. In the end, not only did he not get the person, he didn't get her heart either.
He only ended up being tamed like a dog.
Even though he saw chat records of Rong Yan flirting with other men, he pretended not to know.
Giving her cars and money!
A couple of days ago, he took Rong Yan home, and just because he mentioned something about another man...
Rong Yan made Lu Yong kneel on a washboard at the door!
Lu Yong even said that as long as he was sincere enough, his utmost sincerity would definitely move Rong Yan.
Lu Xiao scolded him many times, and even his parents cursed at him multiple times!
However, Lu Yong adamantly refused to admit he was wrong!
He even threatened that if they continued to push him...
He would jump off the building!
It almost gave Father Lu a stroke out of anger.
Hearing Lu Xiao's explanation, Shen Yuan fell into deep thought.
Why does this plot sound so familiar?
If Rong Yan is a female lead, and Lu Yong is a villain simp...
Then everything makes perfect sense!
Shen Yuan suddenly shivered.
The damn author's values are so freaking absurd!
"Why are you telling me all this?"
Shen Yuan asked, "I have things to do, hanging up!"
"Don't!"
Lu Xiao hastily shouted, "Brother Shen, Brother Shen, I beg you, help me out and make my brother change his mind!"
"Brain-dead!"
Shen Yuan said disdainfully, "Your own family can't manage him well, how could I?"
"No, no, no!"
Lu Xiao hurriedly said, "Brother Shen, I suspect you might have a special ability!"
Shen Yuan suddenly looked up, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
You actually found out?
Looks like I have to silence you to keep the secret!
"Last time you beat me up, I felt my mind become much clearer!"
"If you hadn't knocked some sense into me, I'm afraid I would have fallen out with Wen Xun by now, and who knows, I might have lost my sanity!"
"Brother Shen, you might not even know it yourself!"
"Maybe, you can literally beat some sense into people!"
Lu Xiao's tone sounded pleading, "Just go take a look for me... If it still doesn't work, then just give up!"
"Alright!"
Shen Yuan nodded. It was a good opportunity to go see if he was a Child of Destiny.
If he is...
Hehehe!
"Where are you? Where can I find your brother?"
Shen Yuan asked.
"My brother is at the Lu Group. Brother Shen, you can just go straight there. Anyway, the Shen family also has shares in our group!"
Lu Xiao said.
"What about you?"
Shen Yuan frowned. "You're not going!?"
"Ahem..."
"Well, I'm keeping Wen Xun company!"
Lu Xiao's voice became much quieter, carrying an inexplicable sense of guilt. "I'm going back to her hometown with her to take a look!"
"Get the hell out of here!" Shen Yuan roared. "Your brother has become a simp, and you're still keeping a woman company?"
"You're asking me, an outsider, to help?"
"Lu Xiao, if you have the guts, don't ever return to the Magic City in your life!"
"As long as you dare to come back..."
"I'll let you know what it means for a white blade to go in and a red blade to come out!"
"I'll let you know why the flowers are so red!"
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth.
Anyway, you are also a Child of Destiny!
I'll have Chu Yang and Xiao Ce beat you to death!
When they put a sack over your head, how the hell will you know who hit you?
"Brother Shen, I'll treat you to a big meal when I get back!"
Lu Xiao started to beg for mercy and apologize, "My parents couldn't bear to see my brother like this, so they went out traveling..."
"I really couldn't think of anyone else who could go check on my brother for me!"
"Brother Shen, Brother Shen, really, I'm sorry!"
"I'm begging you!"
Lu Xiao chuckled foolishly.
Shen Yuan: "..."
Your whole family...
Is so freaking unbelievable!
The parents abandoned their son and went traveling?
The eldest son is accompanying his girlfriend to meet her parents?
Leaving the second son here to be a simp?
"I own twenty percent of the damn group's shares!"
Shen Yuan roared, "If your brother makes me earn even a penny less, I will kill your whole family!"
"Shut up!"
"Hanging up, I'm going to kill your brother first!"
Shen Yuan hung up the phone directly, turned around, and got into his car.
"Let's go, to the Lu Group!"
Shen Yuan sneered. "Murder is just a nod of the head, but I will make him disabled!"
Just one slice to castrate Lu Yong!
And all problems will be solved!
Very soon...
They arrived at the Lu Group.
"Give me the baton!"
After getting out of the car, Shen Yuan reached out his hand to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard hurriedly handed an expandable baton to Shen Yuan.
Carrying the baton over his shoulder, Shen Yuan charged inside.
As soon as the receptionist saw the group of men, she hastily came out. "Please stop right there!"
"Where is Lu Yong?"
Shen Yuan glanced sideways.
"Vice President Lu is upstairs having a meeting!"
The receptionist said, "He left instructions that he won't see any guests!"
"Won't see guests?"
Shen Yuan smiled wickedly, using the baton to lift the receptionist's chin.
"I am the damn second-largest shareholder, and he won't see guests?"
"Little sister, I see you're still a virgin, right?"
"Do you want big brother to have some fun with you right now?"
Shen Yuan's mouth twisted into a smirk, "Jiejiejie~~"
Damn!
I am really becoming more and more like a villain!
The receptionist was so frightened that all the color drained from her face. "Dear guest, shareholder..."
"Hehe!"
Shen Yuan took this opportunity to spin around her, bypassing the receptionist.
Bodyguards: "..."
Young Master Shen probably really has some mental issues.
Receptionist: "..."
One bodyguard stayed behind and approached the receptionist.
"Just be a good little girl..."
"...and I'll be gentle..."
"Hehehe!"
The rest of the bodyguards: "..."
You've been corrupted by the Young Master too!
The little receptionist's eyes immediately rolled back, and she fainted on the spot.
The bodyguard: "..."
She's faking it! This is extortion!!

In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
