Lin Yu felt a bit dazed, but didn't pay it much mind.
Shen Yuan: Tsk!
This Dragon King really is an idiot!
Over the past two days, after getting to know each other better, Lin Yu actually revealed the truth of the matter.
Three years ago, while on a mission, he chased the sixth-ranked assassin on the international hit list all the way into the Xia Kingdom.
As a result, he fell into a trap, was ambushed and besieged!
He was heavily injured.
Sounds familiar, right!
The exact same trope as the God of War.
He fought to the death to kill his opponent and almost died himself, until a beautiful woman picked him up and brought him into a house.
Don't ask why she didn't take him to the hospital. If you must ask... how many people in novels actually take the person they pick up to a hospital?
Maybe the people in this world are just brain-dead!
While she was treating his wounds, Lin Yu, in his groggy state, only saw a safety buckle pendant hanging on the beautiful woman's chest.
Later, when he woke up, the beauty never came back...
So he left on his own.
Using the appearance of that safety buckle, he had people look into who had saved him.
He later learned that the safety buckle was a symbol of identity for the Tang family.
His subordinates found out that the Tang family's daughter, Tang Mengxin, wore a safety buckle around her neck!
Right at that time, there was a mission abroad, so he went on the mission, and ended up falling into another trap!
This Dragon King is just so lame!
But unexpectedly, he was accidentally saved by the old master of the Tang family.
After chatting, the Dragon King was overjoyed.
He took the opportunity to ask about Tang Mengxin.
He said he wanted to repay her kindness!
The old master said, Are you here for revenge instead?
I saved you, and you covet my granddaughter!?
Afterwards, the two made an agreement: three years!
For three years, he was not allowed to reveal his identity and had to interact with Tang Mengxin using the most ordinary identity.
If, after three years, whether Tang Mengxin fell in love with him or not...
He could reveal his identity.
If she fell in love, they would hold a grand make-up wedding.
If she didn't, they would divorce and go their separate ways.
Old Master Tang's brain was muddled, and our Dragon King Lin Yu's brain also short-circuited.
He just agreed to it like that.
Then, with Old Master Tang overcoming all objections, Lin Yu married into the Tang family as a live-in son-in-law.
And the result... more than a month after the marriage...
Old Master Tang insisted on going to the countryside to recuperate, but encountered a mudslide on the way...
And croaked!
Shen Yuan expressed that this was an absolute forced plot death!
The existence of this old guy hindered the display of Lin Yu's simp attributes, as well as the plot progression of the Tang family bullying Lin Yu.
Therefore, he was forcibly written off.
Shen Yuan: "..."
I say, are every single one of you brain-dead?
Looking for your savior, and you rely solely on a safety buckle to confirm it?
After finding her, couldn't you ask around from multiple sources to make sure?
Couldn't you just open your mouth and directly ask if she had saved someone back then?
Over the past two days, Shen Yuan also had Uncle Gou investigate some information.
Tang Mengyao and Tang Mengxin did not share the same mother!
Before their father got married, he had already gotten Tang Mengxin's mother pregnant.
But in the end, he married Tang Mengyao's mother.
However, Tang Mengyao's mother died too early, so their father brought Tang Mengxin's mother back.
Therefore, Tang Mengxin was the older sister, and Tang Mengyao was the younger sister.
Tang Mengyao's life at home wasn't too great, but it was still better than ordinary people.
That safety buckle was indeed worn by Tang Mengyao at first, but later when it was confirmed that Tang Mengxin was the heir...
It was transferred to Tang Mengxin.
Shen Yuan shrugged.
"Alright, I'll help you move out of the Tang family!"
Lin Yu smiled at Tang Mengyao.
"Let's hurry up!"
Shen Yuan kicked Lin Yu.
The three of them entered the Civil Affairs Bureau together.
"Lin Yu!"
Tang Mengxin's face looked terrible, and she had lost a lot of weight. "I was wrong, could we..."
"Shut up!"
Shen Yuan said directly. "Household register, ID cards, did you bring them?"
Lin Yu: "?????"
Am I the one getting divorced, or are you?
Tang Mengxin opened her mouth, and Shen Yuan tilted his head. "Does the Tang family want to end up like the Yang family?"
Tang Mengxin gave a bitter smile and took the documents out of her bag. "I brought everything!"
The process went exceptionally smoothly.
When the staff stamped the seal and handed the purplish-red divorce certificates to the two of them, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
(There was no cooling-off period in the past, so just treat it as divorcing according to the old rules!)
Tang Mengxin walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau looking devastated.
Tang Mengyao walked up to Lin Yu, "Brother-in-law, don't be sad."
"What am I sad about? I couldn't be happier!"
Lin Yu smiled and sighed softly.
"No need to act tough, I've seen how good you were to my sister!"
"You must be sad in your heart!"
Tang Mengyao said softly, "Let it go!"
Lin Yu's face twitched. "I'm really not sad!"
"Come on, I'll take you to the Tang family to get everything that rightfully belongs to you!"
Lin Yu said with a smile.
Tang Mengyao nodded.
Shen Yuan: "..."
This is it for the divorce plot?
Shouldn't Tang Mengxin hook up with some powerful big shot...
Then come over to slap his face, and Lin Yu face-slaps them back?
Seems like it went so smoothly because of my existence?
In that case, Lin Yu, don't live too comfortably!
You're already used to being a simp, right?
Then I'll expose the truth, and you can go back to being a simp, how about that?
"Old Lin, come here!"
Shen Yuan dragged Lin Yu to the side, his eyes narrowing with an exceptionally friendly smile.
"Don't smile!"
Lin Yu hurriedly raised his hand. "Your smile looks like the big bad wolf about to eat Little Red Riding Hood."
"It's like this, and like that!"
Shen Yuan smiled faintly, turned around, and left.
Lin Yu stood frozen in place.
What!?
I found the wrong person!?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
I...
Lin Yu looked at Tang Mengyao's back. At this moment, he suddenly felt his memory becoming extremely clear...
This back figure overlapped with the back figure in his memory.
Smack!
Lin Yu slapped himself without hesitation.
Could it be that Brother Ce was right, and I really am brain-dead?
Lin Yu began to doubt his life...
Meanwhile, Shen Yuan drove off and disappeared.
A long while later...
Lin Yu: Fuck!
You just left me here like this?
Do I have to take a cab back?
Damn it!
I've only had a few days of good days, and I've already forgotten about the hard times?
...
Time flew by...
Evening arrived.
Lin Yu didn't come back...
He was either off being a simp, or he went to find a place to stay on his own!
Anyway, Chu Yang was the one who came back.
Shen Yuan scrolled on his phone for a while, then fell asleep.
Late at night, it was dead silent.
A middle-aged man wearing a tuxedo quietly arrived at the villa.
Before he could even get close to the villa...
In the room next to Shen Yuan's, Chu Yang suddenly opened his eyes.
Killing intent?
The middle-aged man in the tuxedo silently dodged the cameras and then entered Shen Yuan's room.
Shen Yuan had also already opened his eyes, staring at the dark ceiling while lying in bed.
Killing intent!?
There's actually killing intent!?
I freaking stayed up late cultivating, and now I want to sleep...
And you assassins come to kill me at this time?
Couldn't you just come in broad daylight?
"Ding. Whose assassin works in broad daylight? Guns are banned here too, so of course they have to sneak around to assassinate!"
The system's voice rang out.
"A mere Grandmaster wants to kill me?"
"I'm just going to lie here in bed and not move a muscle..."
"Let him stab me. I want to see if he can even pierce my skin!"
Shen Yuan scoffed disdainfully, "This barrier of mine is incredibly tough!"
If he wasn't hard enough, there was no way he could pierce through this barrier!

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... 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."
