After leaving the apartment, Tang Yu returned to his car, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag.
He wasn’t worried about Chi Yin telling Ye Chen about what happened at the music store today.
Even if she did, so what? It’s not like he could keep pretending anymore.
His plan was to gather all the information about Chi Yin’s parents as soon as possible and get her out of this mess.
As for Ling Han, Tang Yu hadn’t quite figured out how to handle her yet.
He had some memories of the mess her family was in, but finding concrete evidence after all these years would be a hassle.
“I’ll take it slow, one step at a time,” Tang Yu muttered to himself, exhaling a smoke ring.
“Hey, system, where’s my reward for the music store scene?”
*Ding. Reward: Soul-Snatching Eyes has been issued. Please check, dear host.*
The system’s voice chimed in lazily.
“Oh?”
Tang Yu had expected some useless reward, but this got him excited.
He quickly asked the system about its function.
“Can be activated when the target is mentally unstable, allowing for brainwashing and control…”
After reading the description, Tang Yu couldn’t help but gasp.
This damn system, sometimes it’s shady, sometimes it’s generous—it’s like it’s playing with him.
For now, though, the tense father-son relationship between him and the system seemed to have eased a bit.
Brainwashing?
Hehehe!
This was basically a traitor-making machine! Finally, he could plant some moles in the enemy’s camp.
Such a good thing had to be shared!
So he pulled out his phone and called Bai Wanyi.
When she picked up, her voice came through.
“What’s up?”
“Remember those four guys I sent over last time? How are they doing?”
“Still in detention. You said they had criminal records, but I couldn’t find anything.”
Bai Wanyi sounded a bit frustrated.
A few days ago, Tang Yu had suddenly sent four men over. She had looked into them thoroughly but found nothing.
Still, her gut told her these guys were probably from Dragon Fang.
What annoyed her was how well they had hidden their identities, leaving her with no leads.
“Just a hunch. Can I go see them?”
Tang Yu chuckled.
“Sure, I’ll treat you to late-night snacks while you’re at it.”
Bai Wanyi agreed readily. She still owed him a favor.
After setting things up, Tang Yu drove toward the detention center.
When he arrived, Bai Wanyi was already waiting at the entrance.
She had changed into a black, form-fitting riding suit that accentuated her figure perfectly, giving off a vibe like some kind of inspector.
A bold Harley-Davidson motorcycle stood beside her, her trusty steed.
Bai Wanyi’s life was different from other girls.
While some dreamed of being princesses,
and others ended up as “princesses” in KTVs,
she aspired to be a fearless knight, fighting evil and charging forward without hesitation!
“Hey, gorgeous.”
Tang Yu whistled and greeted her with a grin.
“Want me to detain you?”
Bai Wanyi shot him a glare, clearly annoyed.
“What? Complimenting you is a crime now? Is there no justice left?”
Tang Yu laughed and followed her into the detention center.
All the paperwork had already been taken care of, and Bai Wanyi trailed behind Tang Yu, hoping to eavesdrop.
Ever since she had accidentally overheard his thoughts last time, she had been curious.
Just how many secrets did this guy know?
“Why are you following me?”
Tang Yu turned around and asked when he noticed her trailing behind.
*Go away, don’t follow me. I need to brainwash those four guys.*
*If I don’t set them up, how am I supposed to screw Ye Chen over later?*
“Alright.”
Bai Wanyi nodded with a strange expression.
Fine, she wouldn’t follow. She’d just watch from the surveillance room!
She hurried off to the monitoring room, eager to see how Tang Yu planned to brainwash them.
When Tang Yu entered the visitation room alone, the four members of the Death Squad were already waiting.
Since being detained, they hadn’t been too upset. In fact, they felt lucky.
Offending such a powerful figure and still being alive? That was a win in their books.
But when they saw Tang Yu walk in, their expressions turned grave, and fear flickered in their eyes.
This big shot had already let them go once. Why was he back?
They swallowed hard, their instincts screaming at them to run.
This was a master at the Earth Realm level—even the Dragon King and Young Master Lu were no match for him!
Tang Yu didn’t say a word, just stared at them coldly.
Under his gaze, the four felt an overwhelming pressure, as if they were facing a ravenous beast instead of a man.
What did this boss want with them?
The tension in the room was palpable, and their fear grew with every passing second.
They could feel the killing intent!
It was so thick they could barely breathe.
Just as they were on the verge of breaking, a flash of purple light appeared in Tang Yu’s eyes.
When the four saw the light, they suddenly felt dizzy, their consciousness beginning to blur.
“Are you satisfied with your jobs?”
Tang Yu’s low voice broke the silence.
The four shook their heads, their expressions blank.
“Are you satisfied with your income?”
They shook their heads again.
“Do you want a stable and prosperous life?”
They began to nod.
“Do you want to slack off during the day, hit up clubs at night, and earn a million a month with four dishes and a soup?”
They nodded vigorously.
“Then what are you waiting for? Join Tang Corporation, liberate all the oppressed villains in the world, eliminate inequality, and from today onward, we are comrades!”
With Tang Yu’s final declaration, the four’s eyes gradually cleared.
The old society… the Dragon Soul Organization turned people into monsters.
Tang Corporation turns monsters into traitors!
“Do you know what you need to do now?”
Seeing the change in the four, Tang Yu knew the Soul-Snatching Eyes had worked.
“Slack off.”
“Hit the clubs.”
“Hit the clubs.”
“Hit the clubs and then have four dishes and a soup.”
“…”
Tang Yu wondered if his brainwashing had been a bit too successful.
“Wrong! You need to reform yourselves, become good people first, and then hit the clubs, got it?”
He glared at them and scolded.
Damn it, why were these guys called the Death Squad?
They should just be called the Club Squad!
“Got it! We’ll listen to Young Master Tang!”
The four shouted in unison.
“Good, you’re teachable.” Tang Yu was satisfied with their attitude.
He pulled up a chair and sat down. “Now, tell me everything you know.”
The four immediately began spilling all the information they had.
Meanwhile, in the surveillance room, Bai Wanyi was facepalming.
What the hell was this?
After listening for a while, all she heard was a bunch of guys yelling about hitting clubs.
She rolled her eyes and left the monitoring room, too bored to keep listening.
After about five minutes, Tang Yu had a rough idea of their plans.
He was surprised to learn that Ye Chen was heading to Yanjing soon.
And the one taking over Su Hang was none other than Lu Junzhuo.
According to the original plot, this guy was supposed to appear in the middle of the story.
He was Ye Chen’s junior brother, with terrifying talent and strength, and he had always coveted Ye Chen’s position as the Dragon King.
Later, he schemed against Ye Chen multiple times, causing him significant setbacks, but in the end, Ye Chen outsmarted him and killed him.
But because the plot had gone off the rails, this guy was showing up now?
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)
