Chapter 141
Chapter 141
He was presenting himself as an absolute powerhouse.
“I advise you to show some respect when you speak. This isn’t the Imperial Capital [Beijing] or the Magic City [Shanghai]. This is Qin City.”
“So what? Do you really think the little squabbles between the two of you will cause any real commotion? That’s laughable. Honestly, the opponent your father picked for you is worthless in my eyes.”
Inside, Chen Fan was beyond ecstatic.
Oh my god!
Damn, this guy, Ye Zifeng, was his guy! This guy was the real deal! The one-in-a-million perfect villain!
Just look at the way he talked! Look at that smug attitude!
“I’ll handle my own affairs. I don’t need you worrying about them.”
“Oh? My apologies, then. But I’m not here to help you. I’m here to deal with Ye Aotian.”
“I already told you—Ye Aotian is my opponent.”
Hahahahaha!
Ye Zifeng said, “Oh? What, you actually want to help him? That’s hilarious. Let me tell you something—I won’t just deal with Ye Aotian. I’ll completely eradicate all of the Chen family’s industries here. And as for you? I’ll deal with you too.”
Chen Fan roared in fury, “I want you—I want you dead!”
Ye Zifeng kept laughing and said, “You’re always a step behind. This world is ruled by ancient martial arts. Only those with enough strength have the right to speak. But you … you’ll never have that strength. Hahaha! Chen family’s useless trash. Let me tell you a little secret—the only reason so many forces are eyeing the Chen family is because of you. How much longer do you think Chen Tianqiang can hold out?”
Chen Fan fell silent. His expression turned bitter, as if he were deeply troubled.
But in his heart?
Oh my god, finally! A proper plot! A proper character!
He was so excited. Should he ask for Ye Zifeng’s autograph?
“Take your time recovering. No rush. Watch carefully. Soon enough, I’ll have Ye Aotian kneeling before me, begging for mercy. And you? You’ll be begging me to take you in as well.”
“Well, let’s wait and see. I’m looking forward to watching you fail.”
“Oh? You think you and your little friend stand a chance? You two can even come at me together—I enjoy playing games with people like you.”
After saying that, Ye Zifeng turned and left.
Once Ye Zifeng was gone, Chen Fan’s expression completely changed—he couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst into laughter.
Ling Yuyan said, “Chen Fan, who the hell was that idiot? Do you know him?”
“No idea. But yeah, he’s definitely an idiot. Also, what are you doing in my room? Don’t you have anything better to do? Go find your precious Ye Aotian.”
“I just came to check on you. And, you know, give you an injection while I’m at it. Hehehe.”
As she spoke, she pulled out a syringe—the kind used for pigs.
You goddamn—!
“Get lost! I’m not in the mood to mess around with you.”
“Ugh, you have no sense of humor at all.”
***
[Hahahahaha, I’m just too happy.]
The sudden update in the diary startled the few people who were reading it, leaving everyone completely dumbfounded.
What was going on? Why did he suddenly start writing again? This time, instead of mocking others, it was simply expressing happiness?
[Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this plot? I’m about to cry, you know?]
[Do you understand that even villains need to level up? Villains can also act cool, damn it! The novel’s author is still a person, at least they have a new path to take.]
[Ye Zifeng is going to take down Ye Aotian, and he’s also going to take down me. Doesn’t that mean I can openly go against you now?]
[At this point, I don’t need to follow the plot anymore. I just need to achieve my goal.]
[Hahahaha, no rush, let’s play slowly. Let me enjoy myself for once. Finally, I have a chance to show off. Really, as long as it’s not about killing the protagonist, don’t worry—I’ve got plenty of time. Let’s take it slow.]
At this point, the female leads more or less understood what was happening—it meant that this novel had a lot of villains.
But the only one who managed to survive the longest was Chen Fan.
Chen Fan was the final villain. Along the way, the protagonist had many villains to deal with. The Grand Duke from overseas hadn’t appeared yet, but once he did, he was probably going to be a tough one too.
However, what did that have to do with them?
As long as it wasn’t their own story, as long as it didn’t involve them, it was fine.
Right now, the female leads felt that if they ended up with some idiotic plotline, it would be extremely embarrassing. Among the girls, they wouldn’t be able to lift their heads in shame.
Even though no one could talk about the diary, those looks were impossible to ignore.
For example, when Lin Qingyue saw Jin Lan, she immediately made a snide remark: “You’re lonely.”
Even though Jin Lan was skilled in self-cultivation techniques, she still got irritated.
After reading the diary, Cao Zijin instantly laughed. She didn’t expect things to turn out this way—this was going to be fun.
However, Ye Zifeng was probably related to Ye Aotian’s background. A person like him couldn’t possibly be the child of an ordinary family—he definitely needed to have some kind of abandoned-child backstory.
[Apparently, he slapped the protagonist right from the start. Hmm, he hit pretty hard—almost knocked out his teeth.]
Pfft! Hahahahaha!
Seeing this part, Cao Zijin couldn’t help but laugh. So this guy was actually a helper?
But it seemed like he would also go against her husband. No rush, though—she could take her time.
Soon, Ye Zifeng arrived at the set, shook hands with the director, and said, “What luck! I didn’t expect that as soon as I got here, I’d be shooting a movie. And with these two goddesses, no less.”
The director replied, “It’s a good thing you’re here. If it were anyone else, it wouldn’t work out. Luckily, you’re also an action star, so filming should go pretty well.”
“That’s for sure.”
Ye Zifeng looked at Ye Aotian, took the initiative to shake hands, and said, “Hello, Ye Aotian. My name is Ye Zifeng.”
Ye Aotian said, “Hello, my name is Ye Aotian.”
“Hmm, I know a bit of martial arts. I heard you do too. So, should we hold back when we’re filming?”
Ye Aotian said, “No need. You don’t have to hold back. Don’t worry, you won’t hurt me. I can handle it.”
Ye Zifeng nodded.
Meanwhile, Liu Feifei had already prepared some sunflower seeds and handed them to Cao Zijin.
I, huh.
Ling Yuyan had a very proud expression. “I am a beauty. Wait, what’s with that look? What do you mean by that expression? Are you saying you don’t damn believe me?”
Jin Lan said, “Ye Zifeng is here. Is he coming for you?”
Chen Fan said, “You are quite well-connected. You found out so quickly?”
“I asked someone. It seems that the Ye family and your Chen family don’t have a good relationship. The Cao family was originally supposed to be with the Ye family, but in the end, they married into your Chen family instead.”
Chen Fan said, “So what? Do you think I can’t control my woman? Or do you think I’d even put the little Ye family in my eyes?”
Of course, I knew all this already. It’s just that this part of the plot is ridiculously absurd. The Ye family’s original goal was to target me, but after they found out about Ye Aotian’s background, they immediately turned their attention to him instead.
And just like that, my storyline was gone.
