Chapter 31 - Late at Night, You All Are So Full of Drama

When they arrived at the villa, Chen Fan finally understood what was going on—it was just a party. It was Li Wenqiang’s idea.

The setup was simple: Li Wenqiang had found four women, each a stunning beauty, all dressed in sexy outfits to entertain Chen Fan and himself.

Chen Fan said, “Not bad, Li Wenqiang. Didn’t expect you to be even more wild than your old man.”

“Hahaha, how could I compare to you? You always take on the real challenges.”

As he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhu Yeqing with a frown.

Zhu Yeqing lowered her head, contemplating whether or not she should take off her clothes.

At that moment, Chen Fan waved his hand and said, “She’s going to be with me from now on, as my secretary—not someone I mess around with.”

Zhu Yeqing looked at Chen Fan in disbelief.

What is this guy up to? Aren’t you a transmigrator? Did you lose your intelligence during your transmigration? If you know the plot, you’d surely realize that I’m here to assassinate you and bring down your Chen family. Why are you keeping me by your side? Is it to let me destroy your family completely? Or are you just bored and need someone to talk to? Judging by his diary, it seemed like Chen Fan wasn’t particularly interested in changing the plot. That meant no one really knew how things would end.

In the original story, both of Chen Fan’s parents ended up dying in the end.

But Chen Fan couldn’t bring himself to do that. Deep down, he knew it would be difficult. So, Chen Fan had made a deal with the system: the fate of the Chen family could be slightly altered.

However, Chen Fan himself would definitely die, but his family could survive.

As for money and wealth, Chen Fan didn’t care about that.

Maybe that was his bottom line. Novels were novels, and people were people. Chen Fan simply couldn’t bring himself to do these things.

Li Wenqiang admired Chen Fan greatly. This woman was clearly not someone to be trifled with, yet Chen Fan had the audacity to keep her by his side.

So this was the kind of skill and vision Chen Fan possessed?

“What are you all looking at? She’s Master Chen’s trusted aide. Unlike you all. Now go dance, prepare the food. Don’t you see that Master Chen has had a lot to drink?”

The girls all nodded and busied themselves.

After a while of fun, Chen Fan started feeling a bit tipsy and slightly tired, so he asked Zhu Yeqing to help him upstairs to rest. Once upstairs, they found a special room. Chen Fan lay down while Zhu Yeqing prepared a towel for him.

“Relax, I won’t harm you. My heart belongs to Lin Qingyue. I’m not too interested in other women.”

At this point, Chen Fan was still a lovestruck fool. But once Li Long dies, Chen Fan will become an angry lovesick fool. By then, Zhu Yeqing won’t have such an easy time.

“I believe you.”

Please don’t! I don’t even believe in myself, and you believe in me? It’s true what they say: women consumed by revenge always have something wrong with their heads.

Chen Fan walked into the bathroom and pulled out his phone.

He began to rant.

[Damn it, Zhu Yeqing has appeared. Ugh, she’s such a headache.]

[By the way, what happened between Ye Aotian and Lin Qingyue? They only met, so why was he beaten up?]

[Who the hell keeps beating up the protagonist without telling me? Don’t you know how hard his life is?]

[Whatever, it doesn’t matter. As for Zhu Yeqing, sigh, I have nothing to say. Just carry on with your revenge. I support you. Maybe one day, you’ll manage to make me go bankrupt.]

[I wonder when Li Wenqiang will die. Once he does, Li Long’s time will be up too, and then the reshuffling of Qincheng will begin.]

After finishing his diary entry, Chen Fan returned to the bedside, where Zhu Yeqing had already made the bed.

“You can rest inside.”

Zhu Yeqing nodded.

She didn’t take off her clothes. To be honest, she was still too nervous to do so.

Later that night, Li Wenqiang was completely exhausted downstairs and collapsed heavily. At that moment, someone quietly opened the window and slipped inside.

Lighting a candle skillfully, they took in the situation on the ground with disdain and then headed upstairs.

After Ling Yuyan went upstairs, another person entered through the window.

Upon seeing Li Wenqiang lying on the ground, without a word, they pulled out a knife and swiftly slit Li Wenqiang’s throat, killing him instantly. They then looked upstairs and slowly made their way up.

They found Chen Fan’s room, and as soon as they opened the door, they encountered a woman dressed in black.

The two stared at each other for a moment, then immediately attacked.

Although Ye Aotian had been beaten earlier, he wasn’t seriously injured. However, facing off against Ling Yuyan, he clearly felt that he wasn’t up to par.

“Why does everyone keep getting in my way? Who are you?”

“Go ask in the underworld.”

Ling Yuyan swiftly slashed Ye Aotian’s skin with a scalpel. With a single kick, she sent him flying.

At that moment, Ye Aotian felt the energy from his Earth Core Technique starting to flow.

“Come at me again.”

Are you out of your mind?

Ling Yuyan punched him again, and Ye Aotian flew back, only to come charging again.

“Come at me again.”

Ye Aotian felt like he was on the verge of a breakthrough.

Ling Yuyan didn’t hold back and struck again.

When Ye Aotian got up once more, he waved his hand and said, “I think we have the same goal—it’s all about Chen Fan, right?”

Are you stupid? I’m just curious about who this woman seeking revenge is. Who said we have the same goal?

After pondering for a moment, Ling Yuyan removed her mask.

In that instant, Ye Aotian thought of many things.

“You … You’re the infamous female thief of Qincheng.”

“Chen Fan cannot die.”

Of course he can’t die. Ling Yuyan figured that if Chen Fan were to die, it could have unpredictable consequences.

Similarly, Ye Aotian also couldn’t die. If the protagonist dies, the novel ends.

“I understand. The Chen family’s issue … I was just here to teach Li Wenqiang a lesson and pin the blame on Chen Fan.”

????? You’ve got to be kidding me. You’re a real genius, aren’t you?

Ling Yuyan replied, “No, that won’t work. No one would believe it.”

Are you out of your mind? Chen Fan really wanted to get up and strangle Ling Yuyan right then and there. The protagonist wants to shift the blame? Let him! Why are you meddling? Everything I did, it’s all my doing. Don’t get in the way, for crying out loud!
