"Wait, wait! The topic is getting too grand! Let's bring it back, bring it back!"
Shen Qingsheng stopped Su Ze's words. Su Ze was a domineering man, loyal to his country and unwilling to yield to any enemy. In his eyes, Uesugi Akizuki, though the mother of the little goofball, was someone he had heard about for her actions in China. He didn’t particularly like her, but he didn’t dislike her either, as she had once used her power to avert a major crisis at the cost of permanently losing an arm.
This severed arm was irreparable, as it had been consumed by the laws of nature.
Su Ze's words were purely to assert national pride. He didn’t feel that being a citizen of his country made him inferior to a foreigner. Born in this nation, how could he not be proud?
"Can I come along?" Shen Qingsheng asked. "I think I can be of help."
"No," Su Ze shook his head, then suddenly smiled. "I'm just going to meet my mother-in-law. What could possibly go wrong?"
"Big him, big him!" Shen Qingsheng shouted, watching the five enemies on the screen fleeing with low health. He controlled Yasuo, chasing them down the minion line, frantically pressing R.
Su Ze, controlling Yone, sent out his spirit form with E, then unleashed his ultimate, lifting all five enemies into the air!
"I am the wind!"
Shen Qingsheng followed up with his R, his face twisted into a fierce grin!
Suddenly, W, A, Q, and Ignite, followed by a Flash to reposition for the final blow!
Yasuo, still mid-air, landed on the pile of corpses, then froze, motionless.
Yone, Pentakill!
The bottom left corner of the screen lit up with a sea of "6666."
"You're too slow," Su Ze said, controlling Yone to destroy the enemy nexus.
Ignoring Shen Qingsheng's roaring in his earphones, he turned off the computer and pinched the cheek of the little goofball, who was sleeping soundly.
Uesugi Akizuki, curled up on the chair, rubbed her sleepy eyes and stretched out her arms like a pendant, wrapping them around Su Ze's neck as he leaned in to pick her up.
Leaving the internet café, Su Ze held an unlit cigarette in his mouth, carrying the little goofball on his back. He bent slightly to make it easier for her to rest comfortably.
The evening breeze swayed the tree branches, and the potholes in the alley still held the morning dew from the rain. The puddles reflected the starry night sky.
Su Ze opened the door to his home, a villa in Dust City. He had driven back early this morning after receiving a call from Uesugi Akizuki.
On the way to the Rakshasa territory, he would pass through Dust City, so he decided to stop by home and leave again tomorrow.
"Not sleeping?" Su Ze removed the cigarette from his mouth and asked with a smile.
He felt the little goofball nuzzling her cheek against his neck, like an affectionate kitten rubbing against its owner's leg the moment they returned home.
Her wine-red hair, tousled by the breeze, brushed against his skin. She didn’t know why, but she just wanted to nuzzle against Su Ze. It made her feel a sense of happiness.
"ねる (Neru)."
The little goofball's Chinese was still not fluent, and she occasionally slipped into her native language. It meant, "Sleep."
"いい (Ii)," Su Ze replied. He was fluent in eight languages and understood her perfectly.
The little goofball spoke simply, and Su Ze was used to it. She wanted to sleep with him.
Back in the room, Su Ze placed her on the bed and helped her take off her shoes.
After turning off the lights, Su Ze lay down on the bed. Uesugi Akizuki took his hand, and the two lay there, staring at the ceiling in silence.
The moonlight outside flowed like water, casting a silvery glow across the room, resembling a tranquil ocean.
"Want to be naughty," the little goofball whispered softly, lying in the ocean of light. She turned to her side, hugging Su Ze and giving him a light kiss. Holding his hand, she nestled into his embrace and gradually fell asleep.
Su Ze held the little goofball, but he didn’t sleep. He gazed silently at the thin clouds drifting past the floor-to-ceiling window, the moonlight filtering through them and spilling onto the ground.
His mind was a tangled mess of thoughts. Suddenly, he remembered something he had forgotten.
Slowly, he released the little goofball's hand and left her side. As expected, she woke up immediately, looking at him in confusion.
"I'll be back soon," Su Ze said, turning and walking toward the balcony in the living room.
He dialed a number.
"You better have a good reason!" His boss on the other end sounded annoyed, clearly woken up from sleep.
"Can I go to Rakshasa tomorrow? I’m dating their leader's daughter, Uesugi Akizuki… and she’s asked me to visit," Su Ze explained without hiding anything. He was reporting his plans to avoid any misunderstandings, as a Chinese prodigy visiting Rakshasa unannounced could raise eyebrows.
There was a long silence on the other end. "Does she know you’re dating?"
"Probably… not," Su Ze replied uncertainly.
"Hold on," his boss said, hanging up.
This matter was beyond his authority, so the boss made another call.
"You better have a good reason!" Situ Jiayang took off his nightcap, clearly irritated.
"I do, I do," the boss said, scratching his head as he relayed the situation.
Soon, Su Ze received a call.
"Go ahead," Situ Jiayang said lazily. Su Ze could hear the sound of a lighter flicking, probably lighting a cigarette. Situ Jiayang chuckled, "Kid, not bad. You managed to win over Uesugi Akizuki's daughter. Though, it’s a bit late."
Su Ze wasn’t sure what he meant by "late," but he lit a cigarette as well.
After the vine disaster, the country had begun cracking down on the organizations stationed across China.
Foreign organizations stationed in China weren’t limited to Rakshasa. They all wanted to rely on China to survive the disasters, and for the country, they were valuable assets.
Of course, China couldn’t let these organizations run rampant. After the disaster, their privileges had been significantly reduced.
Because the disaster had struck so quickly, Situ Jiayang hadn’t been able to leverage this relationship for any benefits. Rakshasa had already been reined in, and Uesugi Akizuki's influence had diminished considerably, leaving him somewhat frustrated.
Situ Jiayang continued, "Do you want me to come with you? Uesugi Akizuki is an old fox. I’m afraid you, a young fox, might not be able to handle her."
"No need," Su Ze exhaled a plume of smoke. "If you come… it’d be giving them too much face."
Situ Jiayang burst into laughter on the other end. "True."
After a moment, Situ Jiayang asked, "Are you really going empty-handed to meet your mother-in-law?"
Su Ze thought for a moment. "I’ll… bring some fruits and milk."
He remembered his mother bringing fruits and milk when visiting his grandmother. Meeting a mother-in-law… shouldn’t it be the same?
"...So stingy at such a young age," Situ Jiayang muttered after a long silence. "They’re Rakshasa. Do they really need your…? Forget it, do as you please. If she gives you trouble, let me know."
After hanging up, Su Ze leaned against the balcony railing, staring at the moon in silence. He finished his last cigarette, took a deep breath, and walked back into the room.
(Three updates a day, even if it’s not every day: I still deliver three updates.)
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
