Northern Country, Snow Capital.
The Lu Family's business reception was held within a villa estate, filled with celebrities and bathed in the glow of lights.
In a corner, Lu Chengwen's body trembled, and he awoke.
Quickly absorbing the memory text in his mind, Lu Chengwen felt so depressed he wanted to die.
This was the seventh time.
He had encountered a car accident while delivering food, then was pulled into a system and transmigrated into an online wish-fulfillment novel as a villain.
According to the system's prompts, as long as he could survive until the end without being killed by the protagonist, he would receive corresponding rewards to bring back to the real world.
Firstly, he had no choice. Secondly, his mother's illness couldn't be delayed any longer; he needed to earn money for her surgery, so Lu Chengwen could only accept the challenge.
However, in the previous six attempts, he had died more miserably each time.
The protagonists in these web novels were too monstrous!
Unreasonable monsters.
They all possessed exceptional talent, overwhelming strength, medical skills, ancient martial arts, cultivation, gambling skills, X-ray vision... they knew everything, anything you could think of.
What was most infuriating was their overflowing luck!
No matter how the villain struggled, in the end, they would be killed by a single palm strike, followed by a ridiculously cool line, and then they'd walk away with a beautiful woman.
Furthermore, all the beauties belonged to them. Yes, as long as a woman had some looks, she was destined to be part of his harem, with no room for negotiation.
Lu Chengwen was killed by Long Aotian once simply for speaking a few words to his woman.
Was there no law?
Was there no justice?
Lu Chengwen quickly turned and ran to the restroom, beginning to calculate.
He had already died at the hands of Xiao Yan, Ye Feng, Chu Feng, Ye Chen, Long Aotian, and Zhao Ritian, respectively.
The book this time was called "God of War Roaming the Capital: A Compendium of Beauties."
What a disgusting name!
The protagonist was that scoundrel Long Aotian again.
He was the Border War God, returning to unify all the forces in the Northern Country. Currently, he was hiding his identity and working as a security guard, approaching Leng Qingqiu.
Today's plot was chapter nine. He would step forward to protect Leng Qingqiu during the announcement of his engagement with her. Lu Chengwen would provoke him, and Long Aotian would break one of his legs. He would then be offline for a few chapters to recover.
Long Aotian captured Leng Qingqiu's heart, and the two have been inseparable and shameless ever since...
Lu Chengwen splashed water on his face and gritted his teeth as he looked at himself in the mirror. "This time, I'm going to play it safe until the end and use the system's rewards to cure my mom!"
He calmed himself down, deciding to play it steady and not take risks, and to drag the game into the late stages. Lu Chengwen walked out of the bathroom.
As soon as he came out, he saw Leng Qingqiu waiting for him at the door.
She was wearing an elegant evening gown, truly stunning, breathtakingly beautiful, and flawless.
She had a curvaceous figure and a cool, proud expression.
No doubt, this was the Main Heroine!
The eldest daughter of the Leng Family.
The young female CEO of Qianfeng Group.
The goddess he had fawned over for three years.
And most importantly: Long Aotian's woman!
Lu Chengwen forced a smile. Before he could speak, Leng Qingqiu said coldly, "Lu Chengwen, I will not marry you. Give up on that idea!"
Lu Chengwen smiled and thought:
Big Sister, please spare me. Marry you? I still want to live a few more years!
Her figure is good, and her face is top-notch, but it's a shame she's a brainless Main Heroine, easily fooled by Long Aotian, her IQ dropping to the point where she's willing to be part of his harem.
With Long Aotian taking Leng Qingqiu, he'll basically have the Leng Family. It's a pity that the Leng Family's business, built over generations, will fall into the hands of someone surnamed Long.
Lu Chengwen smiled and said, "I agree."
"You agree?"
Leng Qingqiu was very surprised.
Something was wrong. Lu Chengwen hadn't moved just now, so how could he have said so many things?
She had only heard the three words "I agree" spoken by him, but what were those previous sentences?
And he had been fawning over her for three whole years!
In these three years, she had tried every method, but he refused to let go, always clinging to her like a persistent dog.
When his reputation was ruined, he used his family's influence to get both sets of parents involved, forcing me to get engaged to him today!
What was going on now?
Lu Chengwen smiled and said, "Qingqiu, I've thought it through. We really aren't suited for each other. Let's just be ordinary friends from now on."
He thought to himself:
Hurry up and go be part of your Long Aotian's harem! You, along with another nine hundred and ninety-nine women, all fawning over that man, licking the soles of his shoes, shouting about how heroic he is! Roar!
The top priority now is to quickly deal with this silly woman. This girl thinks she's a peerless genius, but in reality, she's just meat on Long Aotian's chopping board. She's already nine-tenths cooked, just waiting for my final push.
This time, Leng Qingqiu was certain. She could hear Lu Chengwen's inner thoughts!
What was this about licking shoes?
And serving one man with nine hundred and ninety-nine other women?
Who did Leng Qingqiu think she was? How could she debase herself like this?
What on earth was going on in this Lu Chengwen's dog-brain?
Wait, Long Aotian? The security guard I hired a few days ago?
Leng Qingqiu, a Simp for him!?
Leng Qingqiu's expression grew increasingly furious. She stared intently at Lu Chengwen, wishing she could pounce on him and bite him to death.
Lu Chengwen was taken aback. He thought:
What's wrong with this silly woman? I'm not going through with the arranged marriage anymore, and she's still this angry?
But she's Long Aotian's woman, and I absolutely cannot offend her. Fortunately, female protagonists always have some kind of flaw in their brains, so she should be easy to placate.
He quickly smiled and said, "Let's go explain to the elders. Come, come, take your time..."
Leng Qingqiu strode towards the inner room, her chest heaving with anger.

Lu Chengwen!
You've got some nerve!
Three years! Three whole years, you brought me gifts every day, always trying to please me...
Were all those years of fawning and groveling fake?
Now, you call me "silly woman" and say I have a flawed brain, acting like you can't wait to get away from me...
What do you take me for?
I'll just see what kind of trick you're playing!
Long Aotian walked behind her, thinking:
[It's settled, it's settled. Three years of effort were just feeding a dog. As long as I break off the engagement with this foolish woman, with my Villain status, where can't I find ten or eight pretty girls to entertain myself?]
[She likes being someone's concubine, it can't be helped. She's naturally destined to be a concubine.]
[I must distance myself from this stupid woman, absolutely no lingering attachment!]
Leng Qingqiu couldn't listen anymore. She stopped abruptly, turned around, and glared angrily at Lu Chengwen.
Lu Chengwen was stunned, then immediately smiled: "You're worried I'll lie to you? I, Lu Chengwen, swear on this lamp, I won't play any tricks! If I say we're breaking off the engagement, we're breaking it off."
"And from now on, I'll absolutely never bother you again. In fact, it'll be hard for you to even see me. From this moment on, we'll have no intersection, disappearing from each other's lives! Disappearing, happy now?"
Leng Qingqiu was about to explode with anger.
What? Was I, Leng Qingqiu, your goddess before, and now I'm just dog shit?
You're that annoyed with me? So annoyed you can't even wait a quarter of an hour?
This kind of scumbag! Simply... infuriating!
At this moment, the door was pushed open. People from the Leng and Lu families saw them standing at the entrance, confronting each other.
"Oh dear, why are you two arguing again?"
"Exactly, if you have something to say, go inside, don't stand in the doorway!"
Lu Chengwen entered the house and shook hands with Leng Qingqiu's mother and father: "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
Before the elders could speak, Lu Chengwen said: "Uncle, Aunt, Mom, Dad, Qingqiu and I have discussed it. We've decided not to get engaged."
Lu Chengwen said with a sincere expression:
"Qingqiu is strong, independent, intelligent, and decisive. She deserves to find someone more suitable for her, someone who understands her better. Most importantly, that person should be the one she truly loves with all her heart. We should support her and bless her!"
Lu Chengwen put on a sorrowful act, beating his chest: "Although I like her, love her, and cherish her, more than I love myself. However, true love is about fulfillment, about letting go!"
Lu Chengwen was moved by himself, his mind filled with the cliché song playing as background music: There's a kind of love called letting go, giving up forever for love...
Everyone froze.
Lu Guanghong didn't believe his son could be so understanding.
I'm his father! Do I not know what kind of person he is?
This scoundrel is probably plotting something bad again!
Lu Chengwen was very satisfied with his acting!
[Poor Leng Family, generations of family fortune ending up benefiting that Long Aotian.]
[The patriarchs of these wealthy families are truly something else. It's one thing for their daughters to become concubines, but to hand over hundreds of billions in assets? They've got to be out of their minds.]
Leng Qingqiu didn't know why she could suddenly hear Lu Chengwen's inner thoughts.
But Lu Chengwen seemed to have discovered something incredible. If things went according to his thoughts, wouldn't the plot be too ridiculous?
I'm going to be a concubine? For the bodyguard I hired a few days ago?
She couldn't let this kid Lu Chengwen off the hook. He must be hiding something!
Lu Chengwen was still putting on a show in front, passionately explaining that he refused the engagement because of his noble character, upright principles, and that he was genuinely doing what was best for Leng Qingqiu and the Leng Family.
Leng Qingqiu watched his performance coldly from the side, so angry her lungs felt like they would explode.
Everyone was confused.
Lu Guanghong looked at Leng Qingqiu: "Qingqiu, what are your thoughts?"
Leng Qingqiu smiled slightly, her words stunning everyone:
"Uncle, Aunt, Mom, Dad, I agree to get engaged to Brother Chengwen."
Lu Chengwen turned his head, his eyes wider than ever before!
He looked at Leng Qingqiu as if he had seen a ghost.
Leng Qingqiu's expression was icy, even carrying a hint of a provocative cold smile.
