Chapter 52 - It Came Full Circle, I'm So Happy

Early in the morning, Chen Fan woke up habitually, opened his eyes, and picked up his phone.

After checking the time and glancing at the information his subordinates had gathered for him, Chen Fan suddenly became more alert and sat up straight.

Did it really come full circle?

‘Have you heard? It’s said that Lin Qingyue and Ye Aotian were caught on a date by Chen Fan.’

“Whoa, no way, that’s too brutal.”

“Well, Ye Aotian just got his footing, and now he’s probably going to face an even fiercer opponent.”

What’s the meaning of this? From his memory, Chen Fan was sure that it was Xiao Lan. Why does everyone think it’s Lin Qingyue?

Suddenly, Chen Fan seemed to understand. Actually, in Qincheng, Lin Qingyue was somewhat of a celebrity. People were more inclined to believe that Lin Qingyue went on a date, rather than thinking Ye Aotian would date a background character.

This wasn’t something people would gossip about casually.

[Hahaha …]

His diary had been updated. The female protagonists who were awake and saw the beginning of Chen Fan’s cheerful diary entries all felt a headache coming on.

[July 13, overcast, rain is expected, but my mood is quite good.]

[I didn’t expect it to come full circle. I don’t care whether the female protagonists believe it or not; as long as everyone else believes, that’s enough.]

[I just need people to think I’ve gone evil. The plot is all in place.]

[Damn, I feel like the female protagonists are losing their edge. They lack motivation. Look at Xiao Lan, so proactive.]

[But Xiao Lan really has good judgment. She knows the protagonist can’t resist walking straight when he sees a woman.]

[I should shout through a loudspeaker: “Protagonist, you’re messing around!”]

Pfft.

Reading this part of the diary, several female protagonists couldn’t help but laugh. This Chen Fan really had a lot of antics every day. But they all understood now. If Chen Fan was a transmigrator, then he must be very lonely.

They couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for this optimistic boy.

Without knowing about the diary, Chen Fan would have just been a villain in their eyes—a useless second-generation rich kid living off his family. But if he was a transmigrator, then Chen Fan’s current mentality was astonishingly good.

[I’ve become evil, I’ve become evil! Hahaha, so happy.]

[I think I should go to the company today, or maybe call Lin Qingyue to threaten her.]

[Hmm, or maybe after someone mocks me, I’ll go cause trouble for Lin Qingyue.]

[Oh right, I remember! I need to kidnap Lin Qingyue. Yes, haha, I’ll kidnap her, and then Ye Aotian will come and save her.]

[I wonder if the person who’s supposed to mock me has shown up yet.]

[Zhu Yeqing, you’re really strange. Normally, something should’ve happened between you and me last night.]

[Where did you go, little lady?]

Zhu Yeqing was having breakfast when she saw this entry. A chill ran down her spine. Don’t be like this, big brother, I was wrong. Maybe I should just give up on revenge? You’re scaring me too much.

It was an odd feeling, knowing ahead of time that she was going to have some entanglement with a stranger. So, what would she do when the time came?

But she truly had no feelings for Chen Fan. How could she be with someone she had no feelings for?

None of this was of much concern to Chen Fan though. After waking up, Chen Fan realized something else. It felt as though some door had opened, and now his vision was clearer, his hearing more acute.

This must have been thanks to the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon. This ancient secret technique, with historical roots, encompassed many skills, including medicine. The internal energy was the simplest and purest form of inner strength, yet incredibly powerful.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully uploading the diary.]

[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: the Great Compassion Hand—perfected.]

Wow, so this time it gave him an attack technique?

External techniques maxed out, and now his attacks had attributes, followed by the fastest escape skills. Then came the inner strength mastery. And now, an attack technique directly? Was this system trying to turn him into a martial arts master?

Forget it, no point in worrying about it. Better head to the company.

He got up and found Zhu Yeqing, who had already prepared Chen Fan’s breakfast.

“Young master.”

“I’m very angry. Why did Lin Qingyue go on a date with that guy? I thought she’d be wary of my family’s influence and might like me. But it turns out, it was all just to pacify me.”

Go on with your act, will you? So early in the morning, and you’re already in character.

Zhu Yeqing stood by, unable to think of a response.

This line … she didn’t know how to reply to it. She had fallen into a knowledge blind spot.

Chen Fan took a few bites of food, then suddenly pulled Zhu Yeqing into his arms and asked, “Where were you last night? What were you doing?”

“I … young master, I wasn’t feeling well.”

“Hmm? Not feeling well? Do you hate me too, is that it?”

“I … don’t.”

Please stop acting, I’m … scared.

Chen Fan lifted Zhu Yeqing’s chin and said, “I want you to …”

“I … I’m on my period.”

Chen Fan was stunned for a long while. Oh, so that’s what it was—her period.

He had thought her character setting had changed. Well, that’s good.

Chen Fan pushed Zhu Yeqing away and said, “Period, huh? That’s unlucky. Next time, tell me sooner.”

“Yes … young master.”

I swear, I should just grab a knife and end you right now. I’m furious. No man has ever dared to treat me like this. Ever.

“Later, when we go to the company, make sure to hand over the prescription to the research department and start producing the new traditional medicine. Hurry up the production, got it?”

“Yes, young master … about the price?”

“Set it at fifty thousand.”

The actual cost was really low, but if the price was set too low, then Ye Aotian wouldn’t be able to deal with him. It had to be a high price. Only then would the protagonist have a chance to smack him in the face.

“Young master, I heard Ye Aotian also plans to enter the pharmaceutical industry.”

“Hmph, him? How dare he? This was specially researched by master craftsmen I hired. Who does he think he is? Don’t mention Ye Aotian in front of me again, understand?”

See, see, this is what it means when a character doesn’t change—they always manage to set up face-slapping opportunities for themselves.
