Chapter 59 Awakening

Lu Chengwen kept a straight face, calculating in his mind:

[It seems difficult to offend all three at once, let's take them one by one.]

[Let's start with Leng Qingqiu, she has the strongest self-esteem and is easier to break!]

He walked to the wine cabinet with a stern expression and grabbed a bottle of wine and a glass: "Leng Qingqiu, things between us are over. I thought about using you before, but now it seems you don't have much value. Heh, how ridiculous."

Lu Chengwen turned around, raising his chin: "For the past three years, I wanted to annex your Leng family's assets. But now it seems there's nothing left of your Leng family. Take your pitiful belongings and go do whatever you want."

Leng Qingqiu looked at Lu Chengwen.

She smiled, her heart aching.

This man, even when offending her, spoke so gently.

I'm not a fool whether the past three years were real or fake. Although I used to hate your behavior, your personality, your speech... everything about you.

But there's one thing I and my subordinates are certain of, and that is that you truly liked me.

I never denied or doubted this.

Leng Qingqiu smiled faintly: "Really? So you never liked me?"

"Haha!" Lu Chengwen poured himself some wine, "How could I like you, big sister? You have a straight face all day long, looking like you don't want anyone to come near you. I lose my appetite just looking at you. Please, big sister, we're all rich people, stop sexually harassing me! Go away, go away."

Leng Qingqiu also walked to the wine cabinet with a smile and took out a glass for herself.

"Oh, are you angry? Want to drink a farewell toast with me?" Lu Chengwen said, "Alright! Finish this glass and leave quickly. From now on, we'll never see each other again. Talk to Li Meiqin about business matters."

Leng Qingqiu poured a glass of wine, clinked glasses with Lu Chengwen, and said gently, "Thank you."

Lu Chengwen was stunned: "Hmm, so angry you're saying polite words to me? Okay, okay. I'll drink, and after you finish, you leave. We won't be friends anymore."

Leng Qingqiu drank the wine and suddenly smiled at Lu Chengwen.

Lu Chengwen looked at her warily, feeling a little creeped out by her gentle smile:

"I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless! You... what else do you want?"

Leng Qingqiu suddenly hugged Lu Chengwen and kissed him on the cheek.

Lu Chengwen quickly pushed her away: "Big sister, what are you doing? What does this mean?"

Leng Qingqiu tilted her head and said playfully, "Instead of wasting your energy getting angry with me, think about how to deal with Long Aotian. But you're looking more and more pleasing to the eye lately, you're quite handsome."

Lu Chengwen wiped his face: "You... you're crazy."

Leng Qingqiu laughed: "Hey, let's have dinner together tonight. My treat."

"What dinner? Didn't we agree to break up!?"

Leng Qingqiu smiled and said, "You know, my dad can't decide my marriage, you know that. So... as long as you want to marry me, I dare to marry you."

Lu Chengwen broke out in a sweat: "Shut up! You're crazy! You're crazy!"

Chen Mengyun also walked to the wine cabinet, took out a glass, blocked Leng Qingqiu, and poured herself some wine.

Leng Qingqiu rolled her eyes at her but didn't say anything.

Chen Mengyun looked at Lu Chengwen: "Are you going to scold me next?"

"Huh?"

Chen Mengyun drank the wine in one gulp: "I'm telling you, Lu Chengwen, you can't marry anyone in this life, you can only marry me!"

Lu Chengwen looked at her: "What are you after? We broke up three years ago, big sister, please let me go, okay?"

Before Lu Chengwen could finish speaking, Xu Xuejiao skipped over to the wine cabinet. Lu Chengwen grabbed her, almost collapsing: "What are you doing!? What are you trying to do now!?"

"They all drank with you, I want to drink too!"

"We're drinking a farewell toast, think carefully before you drink!"

While Lu Chengwen was arguing with Xu Xuejiao, Chen Mengyun suddenly came up and kissed Lu Chengwen on the lips.

Lu Chengwen was so startled that he let go of Chen Mengyun, took two steps back, and wiped his mouth: "What are you doing?"

Chen Mengyun didn't speak, just looked at Lu Chengwen and smiled.

Over there, Xu Xuejiao had already returned with a glass. Lu Chengwen snatched the bottle:

"Xuejiao! You're my grandma, I服你了, just don't drink. This wine seems to have a problem today!"

"No, everyone else drank, why can't I?"

"This wine has a problem, listen to me..."

"Are you going to give it to me or not? I'll call your dad?"

Lu Chengwen was so angry he was half dead: "Fine, call him!"

Seeing that Xu Xuejiao was going to call, heaven knows whether this acting master would put on a show of "Three Mothers Teaching Their Son" or "The Battle of Changbanpo."

Lu Chengwen snatched the phone and handed over the bottle: "Drink, drink, drink! Go ahead!"

Xu Xuejiao happily poured a glass of wine, but halfway through, her entire face contorted.

Then she couldn't hold it in anymore and stuck out her tongue, stomping her feet and fanning her tongue with her hand: "What kind of wine is this, it's so spicy!"

Leng Qingqiu and Chen Mengyun couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Chengwen also laughed: "You said you can't drink, why did you join in the fun?"

Xu Xuejiao closed her mouth, stared at Lu Chengwen, and suddenly raised her glass, about to down it in one gulp.

Lu Chengwen quickly stopped her: "You've already had a sip, no need to cheer! Your tongue is meant to taste all kinds of precious herbs, don't ruin your child's skills."

To become a top-notch divine doctor, observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking were just the basics.

In reality, a true divine doctor also needed to be skilled in tasting medicine, smelling herbs, observing fire, refining furnaces, applying needles, suspending threads, scraping bones, and making poisons... and so on.

These were all exceptional skills that ordinary people couldn't see. It was like how the medical level in the United States was high, but only the extremely wealthy upper class could enjoy it, while the working class and middle class could only go to private clinics.

Of course, those who deserved the title of "divine doctor" were more profound and rare than Western doctors abroad.

Xu Xuejiao rarely drank in her life because her tongue was extremely delicate and was meant to be used for...

Wait!

Lu Chengwen felt like he was being played!

That night!

This damn girl drank with him for half the night!

Lu Chengwen felt that Xu Xuejiao was like a ghost.

If she didn't drink that night, how could she have been in the same state as him?

If she did drink, why was she so spicy today after just a little bit of alcohol!?

Did the male and female protagonists in this book have backgrounds and special character settings that he didn't know about!?

Whenever Lu Chengwen thought about these things, the female protagonists couldn't hear him.

The system was good. Lu Chengwen couldn't tell anyone the secrets he knew about this world, and they couldn't even hear his inner voice.

The three women seemed to have him figured out.

Lu Chengwen felt a wave of dizziness.

In the end, was he just a little white mouse being played with?

The male protagonist, Long Aotian, was starting to show his fierce side, doing things with less and less of a bottom line!

The leading ladies all had their brains filled with water, and they all began to like themselves.

The plot of the story has completely collapsed. According to the current interpersonal relationships, Long Aotian's desire to conquer these three women is simply a fool's dream.

In their eyes, Long Aotian is already scum.

No, also, Jiang Shihan is too!

They have already taken away the favor of the four leading ladies towards Long Aotian.

Will the system not interfere with the progress of this world?

If the system hasn't intervened, why has everything gone awry?

Is it just because I wanted to skimp and save, leading to the current situation?

Lu Chengwen took out his phone. After the Iron Lump King beat up Long Aotian, he left the Iron Lump King's number as Long Aotian's identity.

A message was sent with only four words: come out and do things.

Lu Chengwen's face turned extremely bad.

The mystery is about to be revealed!

At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind:

【If you want to mess around, you must pay the price. I'll choose my path!】

Chen Mengyun asked with concern, "Chengwen, are you okay?"

Lu Chengwen's mind went blank, and he walked straight out.

Xu Xuejiao said, "Hey hey! What's wrong with you these past two days? You look so scary like this!"

Leng Qingqiu also said, "Chengwen, you..."

Lu Chengwen suddenly turned around arrogantly and pointed his finger, "Don't follow me!"

The three women were all suppressed at the same time, standing still, not daring to say a word, not moving.

Lu Chengwen now saw everyone as ghosts.

In this book, no, in this world, he couldn't trust anyone!

Are Mom and Dad real?

Are the three leading ladies really in love with him, or are they just beautiful on the surface? Are they deadly demons!?

Why does Long Aotian keep losing in front of me?

What is the real purpose of the system bringing me to this world?

Is it to slowly play me to death, no matter how I struggle, the result is the same?

Or are they just leaving me a killing field to see if I can survive?

If the system doesn't interfere with anyone or anything...

If the system doesn't obstruct me and lets me play freely...

If everything in this world is real...

Then where the hell is the protagonist!?

Or rather, everyone is their protagonist!

No! It can even be said that I am the protagonist!

Long Aotian is just a character named "Long Aotian", wearing a "halo" on his head, covered in various "buffs", referred to as a "big male lead", right?

And me?

What do I have?

The system's sporadic rewards!

A deeper understanding of this world than ordinary people!

A rough understanding of some characters and plots in the future!

These are my weapons!

You have your halo, I have my hidden skills!

You have your buffs, I have my clairvoyance!

You are the son of destiny!

I'm damn the chosen one who has died seven times and resurrected in this world, here to make the final fight with you!

Who's the protagonist?

It's not even certain!

The son of destiny and the chosen one, if they don't clash, who is stronger, it's hard to say!

As Lu Chengwen thought of this, he gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator, the handsome business sedan heading straight for a certain place in the suburbs.

...

An abandoned factory.

Long Aotian sat on a chair, like a graceful gentleman, legs crossed, reading a newspaper.

Next to him was a small square table, on which was placed a bottle of fine whisky and two glasses.

Behind him stood Hua Xuening, looking expressionlessly towards the direction of the door.

Bang!

The sound of the iron door being pushed open echoed in the empty factory.

Lu Chengwen's tall and thin figure stood at the door, the setting sun casting his shadow into the factory.

Behind him was the fiery red sunset.

Lu Chengwen's body looked like a black curtain, his features indistinguishable.

Long Aotian folded up the newspaper, smiling slightly, "Inviting me, are you asking me to spare you?"

Lu Chengwen stood at the door, slowly raising his eyelids, his fierce gaze fixed on Long Aotian.

Hua Xuening frowned, feeling the man's aura, completely different from before.

That black figure was indistinct, nothing could be seen, only those shining and fierce eyes, frighteningly bright.

Lu Chengwen's voice was slightly hoarse, "Long Aotian, from today onwards, Xuecheng belongs to me, Lu Chengwen."
