—In the game of love, competition was always the best way to heighten one side's sense of urgency and make their feelings rapidly change!

Those weren't Young Master Lu's original words... Obviously! No matter how outstanding the man was in other respects, when it came to romantic experience, hehe, he was done for—a complete rookie who knew nothing at all!

And now, he had been set ablaze by a Rabbit Spirit with superior skills. His IQ had dropped straight to zero, reducing him to a dejected man counting on his fair-weather friends to pull him through.

In short, the group got together and drank a little. The moment Lu Yuan showed the slightest trace of confusion, the other three slapped their thighs in excitement and scrambled to enlighten him.

Hahaha, how rare! So you've got a day like this too, Lu! Just wait, let your brothers talk some sense into you. We guarantee that with a few simple tricks, you'll lure your beloved right into your hands! This is nothing!

They did not even know who Lu Yuan's beloved was—mainly because Lu Yuan refused to say even if it killed him—but forget it, that was not important! Who cared who the target was? What did "truth" mean? Truth meant it applied everywhere! Even if Lu Yuan had fallen for Chang'e today, his brothers could fish her down from the moon!

The greatest truths were always simple. The advice those three bastards gave Lu Yuan could be summed up in three sentences:

First, you had to make the other person realize that you were a prize everyone coveted. Only when there was a chance of losing you would they cherish you all the more.

Second, make flexible use of the Suspension Bridge Effect. Think about it—why did the male and female leads in idol dramas usually have to go through some dangerous plot before getting their happy ending? Because a racing heartbeat could create the illusion of love! And if you threw in a hero saving the beauty, heh, how could they not become devoted to you?

Finally, even after the two of you confirmed your relationship, you could not let your guard down. After all, anyone who caught Young Master Lu's eye had to be exceptional too. Simps would be swarming everywhere, and if you were not careful, someone might steal your lover away. Stay vigilant, brother! A long journey could not end with you falling at the last step! You could keep taking cues from idol dramas—damn it, Lu Yuan, you've got all the advantages. Look at your qualifications; you're totally the overbearing male lead! When the time came, just act up—be a rabid dog one moment and a loyal dog the next, keep them anxious over gains and losses! Make them unable to quit you!

The more those scum talked, the more excited they became. Bottle after bottle of alcohol went down, until they were all drunk out of their minds, clinging to each other and howling like ghosts: "Fuck! Women really are impossible to understand! They're not even creatures from the same planet as us, you know? Unless you want to find the kind who play along with you for money, otherwise, hehe... Seriously, brother, believe me: only idiots date! Love is bullshit, waaah!"

After crying, they even lined up to express their envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Lu Yuan—while patting his abs, naturally.

"Everything we said before was bullshit, petty tricks! Brother, whoever you like, just go for them! Fuck them until they meow! You've got a huge [beep—], who are you afraid of? Don't be reluctant to use it! Later, we'll send you a whole hard drive of study materials. Heaven already handed you your hardware for free; if your software catches up too, holy shit, that'd be incredible! You'd kill gods that blocked gods and Buddhas that blocked Buddhas! And you've still got the nerve to worry? What the fuck are you worrying about? The ones who should be worried are the three of us!"

Lu Yuan wore an expression like he was constipated, unable to voice his bitterness. What hardware? If I really had the hardware you're talking about, why would I have gone to the United States for treatment...

That was right. After his biological father, Lu Mingyu, accidentally learned of his "hidden ailment," the old scumbag who had spent his life fooling around acted with the heart of a "loving father." Without wasting even half a day, he contacted a top-tier medical team in the field for his dear eldest son. Treat it—treat it properly! If a man could not perform in that department, nine-tenths of life's pleasures were immediately gone. And if it went on too long, physical problems might oppress the mind. What if such an outstanding heir quietly turned perverted?

Just look at the powerful chief eunuchs throughout history!

You had to admit, in Lu Mingyu's eyes, Lu Yuan had already begun showing signs of it.

His indulgence toward Bai Jinxiao's posthumous son was the best proof!

After contacting the medical team, Lu Mingyu had already prepared himself for a prolonged struggle with Lu Yuan—the brat would refuse to go no matter what, and he would insist on making him go no matter what. They would see who was tougher.

But the actual situation was extremely strange.

The moment Lu Mingyu cautiously brought it up, Lu Yuan nodded. "Fine. Have the tickets been bought?"

It left the old father feeling unsettled, constantly suspecting that he had fallen into a trap, that the victory before him was merely an illusion.

"You're really going?"

Young Master Lu, looking utterly dispirited, gave him a chilly glance. "Then I won't go."

"You're going, you're going!" The brat wanted to play an empty-fort strategy with his old man? When your father was studying the Three Kingdoms, you did not even exist yet!

Thus, at this critical juncture, Young Master Lu went to the United States without saying a word. First, he wanted to find out what exactly was wrong with his body—why he could not perform normally, yet was perfectly capable when it came to a certain lecherous rabbit.

Second, this was also the glorious starting point of his Rabbit-Hunting Plan!

Sitting in the first-class cabin, Lu Yuan looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside. With his brows knit in thought, he resembled a great villain contemplating how to destroy the world. Everything is ready now. All that's left is figuring out how to hook that person...

The problem was, he was just a poor student. Even if he saw the news and became anxious, he might not be able to angrily buy a plane ticket! How could Lu Yuan give him a helping hand without leaving any trace?

For now, let us not mention exactly how Young Master Lu made his arrangements, and shift our attention back to the Rabbit Spirit father and son.

After hearing Bai Jinxiao's legendary account of "why I didn't die and am actually doing pretty well," which was wildly uneven in detail, Li Zhikong summarized the chain of events in his own words. It was roughly this:

Back then, I got too full of myself, and I was innocent and adorable. I never expected that while I was being a player and reeling in so many women, some men would turn around and covet me too—I'd only recently come to the city from the mountains! I was a simple, honest cowherd! How was I supposed to know men could get together with men too? In fact, the only reason I paid attention to men was because I was afraid of provoking their jealousy and getting dragged off, bagged, and beaten up...

Later, I really did get bagged. It was done by a newly acquainted returnee from abroad. He was usually cheerful and smiled a lot. They said his family was very influential overseas, but he was very nice, especially to me. Before it happened, I had thought we were good friends.
