"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.
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
. 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!"
