"Damn it, did the plot just fall apart again?"
"Shit, I miscalculated. It's getting even harder for me to lay low."
Tang Yu felt like coughing up blood.
Why was it so difficult to just quietly stay under the radar and earn some rewards?
"Hey, why aren't you saying anything?"
Hearing no response on the phone, Wang Yixue asked from the other end.
"Nothing, I'm just too happy, so happy I can barely speak."
"Really? Then I'll find you again next time we can make money."
"Thank you."
Tang Yu wiped away his tears and hung up the phone.
Despite the hot weather, he was covered in cold sweat with ice-cold hands and feet. Hell is empty, and all the dragons are here on Earth... he couldn't remember the rest.
In short!
This world was full of oppression against those who tried to lay low. When would they finally be able to stand tall?
...
The Su Family.
As one of the four major families in Su Hang, the Su family was once as glorious as the Tang family.
However, in recent years, they had declined severely, almost losing their status as one of the four major families.
If it weren't for Su Muyue's outstanding performance among the younger generation, everyone would have thought it was only a matter of time before the Su family fell from the ranks of the four major families.
After a busy day at the company, Su Muyue had just returned home in her Maserati.
A figure immediately came forward to greet her.
It was Ye Chen, who had been waiting anxiously in his car.
After the incident at the Tang family, he naturally couldn't continue working as a bodyguard for the Su family.
"Muyue, long time no see."
He approached her with a smile and greeted her.
"What are you doing here?"
Su Muyue frowned slightly.
Seeing her frown, Ye Chen felt a sweet sensation in his heart.
Was she putting on this cold attitude to protect him, trying to keep him away from her?
Silly girl.
"I missed you, so I came to see you."
Ye Chen smiled.
"Don't talk like that. We're not close. Please show some respect."
Su Muyue opened the car door and got out, impatiently preparing to go home.
Ye Chen quickly blocked her path, looking at her with deep affection.
"Stop pretending, girl. Eyes don't lie."
"You care about me, you're just afraid I'll get hurt by the Tang family."
"But I can tell you, the Tang family means nothing to me."
"I'm more capable than you think. Soon you'll know who really runs Su Hang."
Su Muyue felt so nauseated by his oily words that she almost threw up her lunch.
Indeed, her murderous gaze couldn't lie.
At this moment, several members of the Su family walked out of the house.
Seeing Ye Chen blocking Su Muyue's path, they became furious.
Su Chongshan gritted his teeth in anger and said, "You again? You embarrassed our Su family last time, and you dare to come back?"
Then he turned to the two guards at the gate and ordered, "Throw this bastard out!"
The two guards immediately charged forward with raised fists.
Ye Chen stood arrogantly in place, allowing the guards to land their punches on his body.
Then he slightly shook his body.
Using their own force against them, the two guards were pushed back several steps and fell on their backsides.
They looked at Ye Chen with terrified expressions, still unsure of what had happened.
The Su family members were equally astonished by this scene.
This guy's martial arts skills were so impressive?
Who exactly was he?
Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Ye Chen gave a devilish smile.
"I wanted to keep a low profile, but you people really look down on others."
"Today I'll tell you this: the Tang family is nothing but insects before me."
"I, Ye Chen, am the true dragon son-in-law for your Su family. How can a waste like Tang Yu compare to me?"
"Three days later is Muyue's birthday, and I will host her birthday celebration."
"I will book the entire top floor of the Moonlight Hotel to give her the best birthday party!"
After a pause, he continued, "Moreover, I'll give the Su family a grand gift."
"You've been secretly planning to acquire that piece of land in the west of the city, right? I'll get it for you."
He had originally planned to maintain a lower profile.
But the attitudes of Su Muyue and the Su family members left him dissatisfied.
The mere Tang family, what was there to fear?
If this were abroad, he could destroy the Tang family overnight!
Once, a family far wealthier than the Tang family had offended him.
The Dragon Soul Organization only sent eight elite members.
In one night, that family was completely wiped out!
So from now on, he would gradually reveal his power! To accelerate his control over Su Hang!
"Is this guy mentally ill?"
"Does anyone have the number for a mental hospital? We need to send him there quickly."
"I've never seen such a braggart in my life. Book the top floor of the Moonlight Hotel? You're not worthy!"
"Haha, if you can get that land that even our Su family couldn't get, I'll lick your shoes!"
The Su family members all laughed mockingly.
They looked at Ye Chen like he was a clown, thinking he must have lost his mind.
Let alone everything else, just booking the top floor of the Moonlight Hotel was impossible!
Two years ago, for Su Muyue's birthday.
Tang Yu, the young master of the Tang family, personally negotiated with the owner of the Moonlight Hotel, offering 300 million to book the top floor for Su Muyue's birthday party!
Even with the Tang family's influence and such an astronomical offer!
The Moonlight Hotel still refused, clearly stating that rules couldn't be broken unless the Tang family bought the entire hotel.
If the Tang family couldn't do it, what made him think he could?
Facing everyone's mockery, Ye Chen just gave a cold smile.
He took out some prepared documents from his pocket and threw them to the Su family members.
"Look at these documents and you'll know whether I can do it or not."
Su Chongshan caught the documents and took a look, immediately shocked.
It was the confidential red-headed document about that piece of land in the west of the city.
The documents also contained information about two other plots of land that the city government planned to develop in the second half of the year.
How did he get such classified information?
In big business, information was the most important asset.
With this information alone, if the Su family could successfully seize the initiative, it would mean profits of tens of billions!
After seeing these documents, the other Su family members' attitudes toward Ye Chen changed.
This man truly seemed to have powerful connections.
Could the Tang family bring such benefits to the Su family through marriage?
From the perspective of family interests, everyone's thoughts immediately shifted.
However, Su Muyue hadn't thought that far, as she had absolutely no interest in Ye Chen!
But since Ye Chen had made such bold claims, this was a good opportunity to get rid of him completely.
So she coldly said,
"Fine, you said it yourself. If you can't make it happen, you're not allowed to bother me anymore!"
After all, it was absolutely impossible to book the top floor of the Moonlight Hotel!
When he fails to keep his word, he won't have the face to keep pursuing her!
Even if he somehow manages to book it, she would still reject him!
"It's a deal."
Ye Chen nodded arrogantly and said to the Su family members,
"With me as your dragon son-in-law, the Su family will become the second most powerful family in Su Hang!"
With that, he strode away confidently.
Watching his departing figure, the Su family members broke into smiles.
This was indeed a great opportunity to test his capabilities.
If he could really accomplish these two tasks, perhaps choosing a better son-in-law wouldn't be a bad idea.
After leaving the Su family, Ye Chen hadn't walked far when a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of him.

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.
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."
