Ch 2 : The Ge'er's Escape

By -
With a mere lift of his hand, a document appeared in his grasp.  “Is this what you mean, Village Chief?” He handed the document over. The Village Chief reached out, took it, opened it, and examined it carefully.  “Exactly this.” After reviewing it, he returned the document to the man and turned to address the villagers, clarifying the man's identity.  “Ling Cang, from the capital. His family has been in trade for generations.” The Clan Leader nodded upon hearing this.  “If that's the case, then the young man may reside temporarily in Yunxi Village.” “Thank you very much then,”  Divine Emperor Ling Cang said with a smile, cupping his hands in thanks. His smile was like a warm spring breeze, dazzling everyone present. “Might there be any uninhabited houses in the village? I would like to purchase one,”  Ling Cang asked with a smile. Before entering the mortal realm, he had observed this area; the scenery was excellent and it seemed a good place for living and...

 The CEO’s Hidden Agenda


"Alright then." 

Madam Tang added one last reminder, 

"If you see anything you like, bid on it—don't even think about the price."

......

"Keyi, nothing caught your eye?" 

Han Qiuqiu tugged at Tang Keyi's sleeve and whispered.

"Antiques, calligraphy, jewelry—you think I'd be interested in that stuff?" 

Tang Keyi replied, unenthused.

"But everyone’s really giving your grandma face—the donated items are all top-tier."

"It’s for charity, after all. Shows how kind-hearted people are." 

Tang Keyi brushed it off.

"Pfft." 

Han Qiuqiu scoffed at Tang Keyi’s feigned ignorance. 

Charity was one thing, but everyone here was clearly angling for Madam Tang’s favor.

"That celadon vase your family donated is quite nice—and expensive too. Such generosity." 

Tang Keyi teased.

"Shut up."

"Look, Qin Yilin just snapped it up without hesitation. Since when did he develop a taste for antiques?" 

Tang Keyi smirked.

"Who knows? Even if he shaves his head and becomes a monk tomorrow, I wouldn’t care." 

Han Qiuqiu retorted. 

"What did you donate?"

"Mine’s coming up soon. You should bid on it—I put a lot of effort into collecting them. Only donated them for Grandma’s sake, otherwise I’d never let them go." 

Tang Keyi winced at the thought.

"What is it?" 

Han Qiuqiu asked curiously.

Before Tang Keyi could answer, the auctioneer announced:

"Next up, a complete set of twelve LLS Constellation Series men’s watches, each numbered ‘1,’ generously donated by Young Master Tang Keyi."

Older guests might not know, but the younger crowd recognized these instantly—

LLS’s limited-edition collection from five years ago, sold individually rather than as a set. 

Assembling all twelve, each with the coveted "No. 1" serial, was no small feat.

Even if Tang Keyi had donated junk, the crowd would’ve fought over it—

let alone these watches. 

The bids quickly soared to three million.

"Tsk tsk, Young Master Tang’s charm hasn’t faded. Guess the final price?" 

Han Qiuqiu nudged him.

"Who knows?" 

Tang Keyi feigned nonchalance, but his eyes sparkled with smug delight.

[Three million? With my name attached, even a sky-high price wouldn’t be surprising.]

Such vanity.

Sky-high?

What counts as sky-high?

Qin Zhiyan’s gaze dropped to the bracelet on his wrist.

Though the watch set wasn’t his style, so what?

He couldn’t tolerate them adorning someone else’s wrist.

"6.8 million going once! 6.8 million going twice! 6.8 mil—"

Just before the gavel fell, a deep, commanding voice cut in:

"200 million."

For this set, 200 million was undeniably sky-high.

For the Qin Group—ranked first in the empire—

annual charity donations far exceeded this sum. 

If it pleased Tang Keyi while aiding a good cause, why not?

The auctioneer perked up instantly. 

"President Qin bids 200 million! The highest offer tonight! Any advance on 200 million?"

The room erupted in murmurs.

200 million for watches? 

Qin Zhiyan’s spending like it’s nothing!

Speculations about Qin Zhiyan and Tang Keyi’s relationship swirled.

"Why would Qin Zhiyan bid so high for your watches?" 

Han Qiuqiu narrowed his eyes. 

"Spill—what shady dealings are you hiding?"

"Nothing! Can’t a man just feel charitable? Maybe he genuinely wanted to donate!"

Tang Keyi’s words were righteous, but inwardly, he was just as baffled.

[Did Qin Zhiyan take the wrong pills today? Does he actually like my watches?]

No wrong pills. 

No love for the watches.

Then why?

Qin Zhiyan couldn’t quite articulate it himself.

The finale was Qin Zhiyan’s donation—

MB’s latest limited-edition custom supercar, 

plus 

its customization rights.

"The winning bidder will co-design this vehicle with MB’s team."

The room went wild.

MB’s customization service was exclusive to elite clients—

this opportunity was priceless.

The younger crowd, especially, geared up for battle—

even Qin Yilin, seated behind Qin Zhiyan, couldn’t resist grumbling:

"If you didn’t want the customization rights, you could’ve given them to me! Why auction them?"

Tang Keyi was no exception.

[AHHHHH—!!!]

Qin Zhiyan rubbed his temples, regretting his donation slightly.

He’d known Tang Keyi would love it—just not this much.

Well, no matter. 

The noise was worth it if it made him happy.

As bidding reached its peak, Tang Keyi fought fiercely against other contenders—

until Madam Tang raised her paddle, ending the war.

Just as Qin Zhiyan had predicted: 

Tang Keyi’s obvious desire + Madam Tang’s clout = guaranteed victory.

"Keyi, congrats! Take me for a spin once it’s ready," 

Han Qiuqiu elbowed him.

"Obviously."

Chapter 1 The big fierce A turns into a vicious soft O

By -
"Ahhh!" "Where's my big dragon!" "Why did it become a little dragon?!" Following a sharp explosion, Nian Jinsui stared in disbelief.  He checked his body repeatedly with his eyes, and finally raised his head like a bolt out of the blue, and his eyes fell on the mirror in front of him. The boy in the mirror had fluffy chestnut curly hair, his skin was as smooth and shiny as white jade, and his cheeks were stained with a faint blush, as if covered with a light crimson haze. His facial features are particularly exquisite, and he looks like God's favorite at first glance.  His eyes were very bright and moist, and they were slightly widened at this time, full of surprise.  Even the pink lips were slightly open, and it seemed that he had been greatly shocked. One look at this appearance, and you can tell that he is a noble, pampered kid from a rich family. Nian Jinsui looked at the face in front of him...

Chapter 51 Attending the Celebration Banquet in Style

By -
"Son, I know you’re upset right now, but for the sake of the bigger picture, you need to endure this for now"   Qin Mu yun advised.  "Nian Jinsui is the type who thrives on making a fuss. If this incident gets blown up and reaches your grandfather’s ears, it’ll be hard to handle." Compared to Qin Cheng luo, Qin Mu yun was slightly more level-headed.  Although she was angry, she hadn’t lost her rationality.  With Qin Zhuo currently evaluating Qin Cheng luo, they couldn’t afford to take any risks. Qin Cheng luo, though unwilling, understood the gravity of the situation.   "Don’t worry, Mom. Once I become the head of Qin Corporation, handling Qin Chengyu will be a piece of cake. I’ll make sure Nian Jinsui kneels before me, begging for my mark!" "Someone that even Chu Heting doesn’t want—what’s so special about him? If it weren’t for the fact that he’s the only son of the Nian family, who could tolerate his ...

Chapter 2 I am not an Omega, I want to commit suicide!

By -
“Mr. Nian, Mr. Qin asked me to bring my family’s second young master here. I’ll leave him in your care.” A middle-aged man in a loose suit stood respectfully outside the Nian family villa, speaking to Nian Yixin. “Of course, Mr. Qin has already informed me.”  Nian Yixin replied with a polite smile, though his expression carried a natural air of measured distance. He was the head of the Nian family and, notably, an Omega. Nian Yixin’s gaze landed on the young man beside the driver.  The youth stood straight, his frame lean like a proud green bamboo.  His features were sharp and handsome, his eyes deep and dark, as though concealing icy cracks beneath a cold river, exuding an air of coldness and eeriness. At the corner of his right eye, there was a small mole, adding a faint trace of aloofness to his expression. His indifferent demeanor and taciturn nature made him less than charming as a guest. “So this is Chengyu? You’ll be living with us from now on. Feel free to...

Chapter 3 Come on, just let him kiss you.

By -
Nian Jinsui was having a beautiful dream.  In his dream, he had returned to his original body and even met his dream Omega. The little Omega’s face wasn’t clear; he could only see those soft-looking lips approaching him, with a faint, sweet fragrance. So proactive—how could he wait any longer? Nian Jinsui widened his eyes, trying to see the Omega’s face clearly.  He puckered his lips in anticipation of those tender, delicate lips. As his vision sharpened, however... The person before him had cold, indifferent eyes, even showing a trace of reluctance and resistance. Even the mole at the corner of his eye seemed to emit disdain.  Yet, those lips were exceptionally beautiful—plump and defined, looking so tempting to bite. Come on, come on, just give him a kiss… Just as Qin Chengyu’s lips were about to touch Nian Jinsui’s, their eyes met.  Qin Chengyu saw Nian Jinsui’s intoxicated gaze, coupled with the subtle movements of his lips. Qin Chengyu quickly lowered his eyes, ...

Chapter 4 If you don’t complete the task, you will be punished

By -
[Host, remember this: beyond the storyline, the world is vast.] “What does that mean? Can you be more specific?” [Host, you must understand that the novel's storyline does not describe every hour of every day. Moreover, you are just a side character, so the storyline involving you is relatively sparse. This means that as long as you don't violate the system's rules, you are free to do as you please during the times when you are not part of the storyline.] “But won’t this affect the development of the plot? After all, I’m living in what feels like a real world.” [It naturally could, which is why you have the opportunity to change your ending. For example, today you jumped off a building, and Qin Chengyu saved you. This event was not part of the novel’s original storyline. It will inevitably affect Qin Chengyu’s impression of you.] Nian Jinsui sneered,  “Of course it will. He saved me, making him my lifesaver. But in the future, I’ll have to follow the storyline and mis...

Chapter 5 What do you call a person who can’t smell?

By -
Nian Jinsui couldn't help but think of Qin Chengyu's life experience. The current leader of the Qin family, Qin Zhuo, is nearly seventy years old. He is still energetic and quick-thinking, and holds all the power of the Qin family firmly in his hands. Qin Zhuo is a top Alpha with high IQ and strong ability. Under his hands, the Qin family has developed into one of the three major families in the imperial capital. At the same time, he is also a proud and arrogant person. He hopes that his high-quality Alpha genes can continue to carry forward the Qin family. It's a pity that he only has two Omega daughters, Qin Muyun and Qin Muyu. Qin Zhuo could only recruit two Alpha sons-in-law, and put his hope in his grandchildren. Later, Qin Muyun and Qin Muyu gave birth to sons one year apart. It's just that Qin Muyu was not in good health originally, and became even more weak after giving birth to a child, and died a few years later. Her husband was distraught, depressed all day ...

Chapter 7 My favorite brother Ting

By -
Ting After Nian Jinsui completed his check-up in the afternoon, the group got on the car back to Nian's home. Nian Jinsui sat in the back seat of the car, tapping his fingers quickly on the screen of his mobile phone, checking Nian Jinsui's circle of friends and WeChat friends. When he saw that Chu Heting's chat box was pinned to the top and the note was called  "My favorite brother Ting,"  although Nian Jinsui was not surprised, he still couldn't help but feel a chill. Brother Ting? I'm still disgusted! Nian Jinsui curled his lips in disgust and was about to change the note for him when a systematic reminder suddenly came to his mind. [Host, this note is mentioned in the plot of the novel, so no modification is allowed. ] Nian Jinsui then rolled his eyes and had to give up. Qin Chengyu raised his eyelids slightly, and through the rearview mirror, he saw that Nian Jinsui had been tapping the screen of his mobile phone, which made him suddenly remember the...

Chapter 23 You’ll Be Living in the Storage Room

By -
  Nian Jinsui unwrapped the LEGO set and dumped all the pieces onto the carpet.  Carefully, he maneuvered himself off his wheelchair and sat on the floor, immediately starting to assemble the pieces. Qin Chengyu, seated across from him, first picked up the instruction manual to study it. “Come on, start building,”  Nian Jinsui said, pushing a small bag of LEGO pieces toward Qin Chengyu. It was Qin Chengyu’s first time encountering LEGO.  After carefully examining the instructions, his movements were slower.  While he had only assembled a few pieces, Nian Jinsui had already completed a small portion. “Look, I’ve nearly finished the car chassis,”  Nian Jinsui boasted.  “So, you’re not some magical beginner with a gaming halo in everything after all.” Qin Chengyu glanced at the model in front of Nian Jinsui, then pointed to a specific section.  “You made a mistake here.” “Impossible!”  Nian Jinsui retorted, immediately defensive. Qin Che...

Chapter 6 He is different from the rumors

By -
Qin Chengyu:  ? ? ? What's the problem? Qin Chengyu was silent for a moment. He didn't understand the purpose of Nian Jinsui's question, but he still answered it. "It's called a person with an inability to smell." "Wrong answer!" Nian Jinsui suddenly became excited, stretched out his index finger and shook it from side to side "Now the correct answer is revealed. People who can't smell are called Betas! Hahahaha..." Nian Jinsui He laughed at his own joke and kept giggling. But Qin Chengyu's expression was dull and without a smile.  He looked at Nian Jinsui, and there was even a trace of imperceptible hostility in his eyes. Is this Nian Jinsui mocking him for not being able to smell pheromones? But he doesn't want to smell pheromones. It's great to be a Beta.  He doesn't have to be influenced by pheromones like Alpha and Omega and do some uncontrollable behaviors.  It's disgusting to think about it. Qin Chengyu suffe...

Chapter 26 Giving Nian Jin a Rub on His Bruise

By -
Nian Jin Sui’s tired and weak appearance caught Qin Cheng Yu’s attention, causing him to frown slightly. When Qin Cheng Yu turned to leave, Nian Jin Sui assumed he was going back to his room.  To his surprise, Qin Cheng Yu went into the bathroom, returning with two dry towels and a hairdryer. “Young Master Nian, do you experience this kind of symptom often?”  Qin Cheng Yu asked while placing the items by the bedside.  He squatted down and used a towel to gently wipe the water stains on the plaster bandage of Nian Jin Sui’s right leg. Nian Jin Sui, feeling both surprised and flattered, wondered why Qin Cheng Yu was suddenly so concerned. He answered vaguely,  “Only occasionally... not often…” Qin Cheng Yu didn’t press further, assuming that Nian Jin Sui wasn’t paying much attention to his own health.  After all, Nian Jin Sui seemed indifferent even to the bruise on his knee and had no intention of treating it. “It’s a good thing the bandage only got slightl...
