Why care so much about Lao Chi...
That was because the original owner's rebellious phase came late...
He insisted on pretending to be an ordinary person and refused to have bodyguards follow him.
As a result, he accidentally offended a few punks...
Someone pulled a knife!
Lao Chi took the knife for the original owner!
Ever since then, the original owner had treated Lao Chi very well!
Shen Yuan rubbed his temples.
Now it seemed...
Lao Chi's mother didn't make it, and Lao Chi must have gone bankrupt trying to cure her!
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him not to be able to take out a mere half a million.
And now Lao Chi had fallen ill too...
As a transmigrator, having inherited the original owner's karma...
I have to repay it somehow!
That is what all the novels say. Since I transmigrated over, I am him, and he is me. Therefore, I must bear his karma!
Soon, they arrived at the Magic City Central Hospital.
A girl sat in the hospital corridor, her eyes filled with despair.
Shen Yuan and Special Assistant Lin walked over.
The girl looked up, a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
"Shen Yuan!?"
She murmured.
"Shen Yuan, give me half a million!"
Chi Miaomiao cried out.
"Ding, discovered a normal-level Child of Destiny!"
The system's voice sounded.
"Get lost!"
Shen Yuan cursed angrily. "From now on, keep your mouth shut until I have seen Lao Chi!"
Shen Yuan scoffed coldly and went straight into the ward.
Looking at the old man covered in tubes, Shen Yuan could not help but sigh.
I really am asking for it!
Why did I come here?
I am clearly a hypocritical saint!
I am not a good person!
I freaking...
Sigh, forget it!
"Special Assistant Lin, go arrange the payment immediately, surgery right away!"
"The best doctors, the best medicine!"
Shen Yuan said.
"Yes!"
Special Assistant Lin nodded and turned to leave. "Should the bill go through your private account, or..."
Shen Yuan's face twitched. "Nonsense, use the private account!"
Wouldn't using the company account be sending himself to the tax bureau?
If a single cent did not match, they would have to recalculate everything!
"You are the major shareholder of this hospital!"
Special Assistant Lin mentioned, turning to leave.
Shen Yuan: "..."
"No, come back!"
"Freaking free, free treatment!"
Shen Yuan roared.
In that case, do not use my private account!
Special Assistant Lin made an OK gesture and walked out.
Soon...
The director of the hospital's inpatient department rushed over, wearing a white coat and a face full of smiles.
"Young Master Shen, what brings you here?"
Director Li asked with a smile.
"My family's hospital, my family's driver, what do you think?"
Shen Yuan said casually.
"I see!"
Director Li nodded. "Rest assured, Young Master Shen. I guarantee the best of everything!"
Very quickly...
The best ward, the most authoritative experts, the best surgeons.
Everything was arranged perfectly in no time.
This was... the taste of money and power.
Lao Chi, lying on the bed, opened his eyes, parted his lips, and shed tears of emotion.
Stepping out into the corridor, Shen Yuan let out a breath.
"Thank you!"
Chi Miaomiao stepped forward and said gently.
"Are you brain-dead?"
Shen Yuan sneered.
Chi Miaomiao paused. "Regardless, thank you!"
"My father is still lying in the ward. The surgery fees and follow-up treatment costs are not a small sum!"
"I know what I should do!"
"I am willing to be your girlfriend!"
Chi Miaomiao looked up, her eyes resolute.
Special Assistant Lin, who had just returned from arranging everything, heard these shocking words and dropped his jaw.
Shen Yuan's mouth twitched. "You really are brain-dead!"
"President Shen!"
Special Assistant Lin darted over with a whoosh and shouted, "You do not think she is special just because she looks so brain-dead, do you?"
"You have not fallen for her, have you?"
Special Assistant Lin yelled.
"I even fired Liu Ruyan. Do you think I am blind or heartless?" Shen Yuan rolled his eyes.
"Thank goodness!"
Special Assistant Lin sighed in relief. "Otherwise, I would have made you choose between the two of us!"
"Do not worry, if I had to choose, I would definitely choose you!" Shen Yuan laughed.
Special Assistant Lin shrugged.
"Saying that makes it sound like I like you!" Shen Yuan added, raising his middle finger.
Special Assistant Lin: "..."
Chi Miaomiao opened her mouth. "Shen Yuan, today is my birthday!"
"And then?"
Shen Yuan tilted his head and looked around.
It seemed there was nothing around to hit someone with!
Note to self: have Xiao Ce and Chu Yang come over and teach this person a good lesson another day!
"Shen Yuan, do you not have..." Chi Miaomiao started.
"Shut up, I know best whether I have a heart or not!"
"My heart is beating perfectly fine in my chest!"
Shen Yuan sneered.
"Open your eyes and look. I do not believe your eyes are completely empty," Chi Miaomiao choked out.
"I am telling you I am free of all worldly desires!"
Shen Yuan was completely speechless. "I am not Tang Sanzang, and you are not the Ruler of the Women's Kingdom!"
"Impossible!"
Chi Miaomiao shook her head frantically. "You clearly came as soon as you received my message!"
"I washed your clothes, cooked for you, and took care of your daily needs!"
"During those two years, was I not good enough to you?"
"You smiled at me; I will always remember your smile!"
Chi Miaomiao sobbed, "I thought you liked me at least a little bit!"
"Yeah, and I always thought you were just a servant!"
Shen Yuan said bluntly. "When I said I was hungry, you poured me water!"
"When I said I was thirsty, you freaking cooked for me!"
"Which servant in the villa have I not given a red envelope to?"
"But have I ever given you one?"
Shen Yuan scoffed coldly. "You fail even at being a servant!"
"I was showing you my love, treating you well!"
"And you did not reject my expressions of love!"
Chi Miaomiao cried out, her face full of disbelief and despair.
"Sister, sweeping the floor, wiping the table, cooking, cleaning the room..."
"You call this freaking showing love?"
"I have over fifty servants at home..."
"Are they all showing me their love?"
Shen Yuan was going a bit crazy.
Will someone please do something about this insane world!
"You..."
Chi Miaomiao raised her hand to slap him...
Shen Yuan instinctively grabbed it and retaliated with a heavy backhand slap.
Smack...
Chi Miaomiao fell to the ground.
Shen Yuan: What the heck!
Do you fake female-demographic protagonists all like to slap people at the drop of a hat?
It is either slapping someone or getting slapped!
I am a freaking male-demographic protagonist!
Special Assistant Lin: "Holy crap, according to the public security penalty regulations, one slap without obvious injury is a compensation of five hundred bucks!"
Note it down, note it down!
I will need to help President Shen pay the compensation later!
"Ding, does this count as villain points?"
The system suddenly popped out, ruining the mood.
"Get lost, can you not see I am acting out a melodrama?"
Shen Yuan looked angry but was not, feeling more of a stifled frustration. "You are freaking watching the show, can you not help me solve this!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one hundred villain points!"
The system chuckled. "You idiot host, you finally got what is coming to you!"
Shen Yuan: "..."
You are so great, you are so noble!
Everyone loves you!
What a crappy world, crappy world, crappy world!
I am going to climb step by step by step by step by step by step to the absolute top!
I want to be... Shen Gao!!
I refuse to let those fake protagonists bully me ever again!
I can't take it anymore!
I want the power to call a deer a horse, and I want to get away with murder!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

How can I tolerate this? With a grand wave of his hand—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! Slander the Emperor? Very well, all of you shall die! ... The False Prince: "Although I am not the biological son, Father and Mother love me more. The throne should be mine!" The Female Lead: "Qin Xiao, you are the Emperor, and I am a commoner. If you wish to marry me, you must abdicate. Otherwise, you will never have me!" The Empress: "After we divorce, you must give me half the empire!" The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart. For her sake, I willingly abandon the frontier defenses!" The Retired Emperor: "Although Yu'er was adopted, I prefer him. Qin Xiao, you should abdicate and let him become Emperor!" ... Very well! So this is how you want to play? Facing this twisted world of female-oriented tropes, Qin Xiao grins and raises his hand to unleash—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! I am the Emperor. Why would I bother reasoning with you? Seal the gates! Leave none alive!
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."
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
