At the banquet, a scene of stark contrast unfolded.
On stage.
A group of people lined up to have their faces slapped by a black claw.
They fervently shouted, raising their bids, begging Qin Luo to personally slap them.
But alas.
Qin Luo announced that the limited-time event where he would personally intervene had already ended.
Everyone lamented the missed opportunity.
Off stage.
Su Muwan, munching on sweets, blinked her eyes at Qin Luo and asked, "Are you saying (chew chew) that you did all this (chew chew) to help me face less trouble in Wang City?"
Wait a minute?
What does that mean?
Does it imply that I, the young lady, am prone to impulsiveness and anger?
Qin Luo nodded, removing a cream puff from Su Muwan's head and popping it into his mouth with a smile. "Exactly. Although I’m sure the young lady would forcefully suppress anyone who dares provoke you."
"But, like flies and mosquitoes, they keep buzzing around, which is just too annoying."
"So, you see..."
Qin Luo swallowed the cream puff, finding it even more delicious than before.
He then placed another cream puff on Su Muwan's head and continued, "I crippled them, healed them, and showcased my exceptional medical skills."
"Since I’m your attendant, everyone will naturally prioritize considering your attitude, young lady."
"This way, we can avoid a lot of unnecessary conflicts!"
Su Muwan listened, her eyes growing slightly dazed.
The logic made sense.
But... why is it that when you display your extraordinary medical skills,
those people obediently fall in line,
while when I demonstrate the power to annihilate a peak-level expert with a single glance,
they still come one after another to challenge me?
Is... is this fair?
Most importantly...
Su Muwan glared at Qin Luo, who seemed to treat her head like a serving platter, and immediately covered her head with both hands, her face flushed with embarrassment. "Wait a second, why do you keep putting cream puffs on my head!"
"And!"
She exclaimed, "Is that even hygienic? You actually ate it!"
Hearing this, Qin Luo blinked in confusion, chewing the cream puff in his mouth as he pondered.
Then, with a serious expression, he replied, "Why wouldn’t I eat it?"
"The scent of the young lady, whether from her body or her hair, is one of a kind in the world!"
"The delicious cream puff, infused with the faint fragrance from your hair, creates an unparalleled flavor on the taste buds!"
"It’s... it’s a truly unique sensation!"
Su Muwan was stunned. "Don’t say such perverted things so seriously!!"
She was utterly speechless.
When did Qin Luo become like this?
She remembered when they first met, he was quite elegant and normal...
Well... slapping people’s faces might not be considered normal.
But!
At least he wouldn’t openly say such perverted things, right?
"Perverted? Young lady, this is my way of showing loyalty to you."
"Your loyalty has gone bad! If you really want to show loyalty, why don’t you dip your finger in the cream and feed it to me!"
"Young lady... that’s the perverted part..."
Su Muwan, hearing this, wasn’t pleased. She glared at Qin Luo. "What? Now it’s your turn to not like it?"
With a cold snort, she added, "Hmph! So much for Qin Luo’s so-called loyalty!!"
"I’m fine with it, but young lady, can we do this at home?"
"Hey hey hey, Qin Luo, can’t you say something more wholesome and positive?"
"Young lady, are you really in a position to say that...."
Nearby.
Ning Qingyuan sat stiffly, feeling as if she were sitting on pins and needles.
Wait a minute.
Are both of you perverts?!
Am I just a part of your little game?
Ning Qingyuan felt like she could no longer keep up with the times.
Is this how young people play nowadays?
She glanced to her left.
Su Bailian, for some reason, was suddenly surrounded by seven or eight young nobles from Wang City.
"Lian Lian, hehe Lian Lian."
She looked at the stage.
A group of Wang City elites were lining up to have their faces slapped by a black claw.
"Miracle doctor, hehe miracle doctor."
She glanced behind her; the host of the banquet had fainted on the sofa.
"My banquet... my banquet..."
Long Jiuxiao stood nearby, making a phone call.
"What should I do? Xiaoxiao fainted, what should I do?"
Finally, she looked to her right.
The instigators, Su Muwan and Qin Luo, were now placing cream puffs on each other’s heads and eating them.
"Qin Luo, you taste pretty good too."
"Young lady, aren’t we drawing too much attention like this?"
"Hmph! Who dares to say anything?"
No!
"Wuwuwu...."
Ning Qingyuan, sandwiched in the middle, covered her face and shivered.
Why has the world become so strange?
Ning Qingxuan!! How did you raise these kids!!
In Wang City, at a large beauty salon.
Inside a private room.
"Muqing, why do you seem so distracted?"
Ning Qingxuan, lying on a massage chair with a face mask, asked.
"I’m thinking about Sister Su."
Ning Muqing, who had been dragged along for the beauty treatment, timidly replied.
Aunt Qingxuan was a completely different presence compared to her other aunts.
Because she... seemed to do whatever she pleased.
"Don’t worry, your Sister Su is probably having a great time with Qin Luo right now."
"Huh?"
...
...
Late at night.
The banquet ended in a rather peculiar manner.
In the car on the way back.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan sat in the backseat, tallying up their gains from the event.
"The Ye family gave us three plots of land in Wang City."
"The Li family handed over two buildings in the commercial district. Wow! That’s prime real estate."
Qin Luo was also counting. "The Zhao family gave us the management rights to a seven-star hotel in Wang City, called Red View Pavilion."
Red View Pavilion?
Ning Qingyuan, sitting in the front of the car, was shocked when she heard the name.
Wasn’t that a centuries-old, prestigious hotel?!
They just handed it over?
"Some random hotel I’ve never heard of. Probably not worth much."
Su Muwan pouted, then her eyes lit up as she looked at the next item. "The Wang family gave us a large resort in the suburbs! According to the description, it’s surrounded by mountains and water, with beautiful scenery!"
"Young lady, getting excited again?"
"Isn’t it a perfect spot for photos and check-ins?"
Qin Luo smiled and nodded. "The Zhuang family gave us a high-end medical center. Oh, it specializes in martial artists’ healthcare. Interesting."
"The Lin family gave us a 30% stake in a large shopping mall. Why only 30%? Why not give us the whole thing?"
"Young lady, give them a break."
Su Muwan snorted lightly, then happily continued flipping through the contracts. "The Huang family sent over an ancient theater."
"The Sun family gave us full ownership of a large amusement park."
"This one... this one... and this one..."
Qin Luo and Su Muwan counted at least dozens, if not nearly a hundred, different properties.
And this was likely just a fraction of what these Wang City families owned.
Good heavens!
These Wang City families are ridiculously wealthy!
Su Bailian sat in the front passenger seat, leaning against the window.
Her little ears had been listening intently to the various properties being listed by the two in the back.
Gasp!!
This! This is practically faster than robbing a martial arts bank!
How does Su Muwan deserve all this?!
Su Bailian looked at the numerous gold and silver accessories she had acquired.
Sigh.
Compared to Sister Su, I’m just too kind.
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
