System: "There's a blue Flower of Illusion over at the Sinkhole Divine Mountain. It looks similar to a four-leaf clover, but its roots are red. You need to find it and take it when Huo Cixiao is about to wake up."

Luo Beishi remained completely calm and countered, "The helicopter should be able to get up there, right?"

System: "Okay, host. Just be careful over there, although you won't die from the fall."

Luo Beishi: "I won't die from a fall, but I'll still feel pain."

After saying that, he went back to watching anime.

next day

Luo Beishi instructed A Long and A Hu to take good care of the people. The system arranged a helicopter and pilot for him in Ji Province. As the departure date approached, Luo Beishi decided to check in with Huo Cixiao to see what they were going to do later.

When Huo Cixiao learned that Luo Beishi was going to Sinkhole Mountain to gather herbs for him, he was stunned and overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

Sinkhole Mountain is very famous. As far as he knows, Sinkhole Mountain is dangerous and has many jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards... He is very worried about his cheap wife with her thin arms and legs.

In his eyes, even mosquitoes were very powerful at attacking Luo Beishi.

Huo Cixiao began to suspect that his recovery was related to Luo Beishi. In fact, was the massage Luo Beishi gave him every night, along with medication?

Is this how much his cheap wife thinks of him...?

When he heard that Luo Beishi was going to Sinkhole Mountain, A Long was the first to worry about the young mistress going alone, but he couldn't leave the young master's side and had to protect his safety.

In the end, he sent A Hu and A-Niu Niu.

These two bodyguards, whose names also correspond to Chinese zodiac signs, are quite capable.

The Twelve Zodiac Animals bodyguards are all top-notch elites, but they can't avoid Huo Cixiao's accident.

They were following the young master's car, and the bodyguards' vehicles in front were stopped, as were the cars behind... and it was all staged as an accident.

"Alright, these two will do. Let's go, but don't let too many people know."

Luo Beishi and his group went to the airport.

They asked Luo Beishi about the vehicle arrangements and other details after they went downstairs.

Luo Beishi: "You'll find out when you get there."

A-Niu: "Yes, ma'am."

Luo Beishi had gotten so used to hearing the words "young mistress" or "madam" that he had become accustomed to them.

Luo Beishi saw the plants covering the mountains and fields, he suddenly wanted to punch the system.

"How do I find the flower? System, give me a location."

"Host, there's nothing this system can do; there are no cameras on the mountain for the system to use."

Luo Beishi: "Fine, then I'll just spend money to buy knowledge. They should have things like a complete encyclopedia of medicinal plants, right?"

System: "Host, you truly live up to your reputation."

Thus, Luo Beishi gained access to a comprehensive knowledge of medicinal plants and learned about the growth habits of the Flower of Illusion.

It actually grows on a cliff.

Luo Beishi did not go down beforehand, but instead used a high-definition telescope to look at the edge of the cliff from the helicopter.

Sure enough, they found a bewitching, Flower of Illusion.

"Found it, A-Niu had someone get close to the latitude and longitude..." After Luo Beishi reported the precise data, the helicopter lowered the ladder vertically inside.

"Madam, let us go and help you pick them. With your health, what if something bad happens to you?" A-Niu was very worried. He originally thought that if Luo Beishi searched in a safe place, that would be fine, but he didn't expect that his wife would be so bold.

"Don't worry, I need to do this myself," Luo Beishi, not wanting to gamble with other people's lives.

But he's different; even if he gets seriously injured in a fall, he won't die.

It was late at night when we finally got back to the villa.

A-Niu felt he had experienced a thrilling day. He admired the young mistress's rock climbing skills, but the situation was indeed extremely dangerous. They watched from above with trepidation, fearing something might happen.

Huo Cixiao's heart finally settled down after hearing Luo Beishi's voice.

"Young Madam, you're finally back! Young Master isn't eating and wants to talk to you, but he can't reach you." Uncle Chen was flustered. This was the first time he'd ever felt that without Luo Beishi, the family had lost its leader.

"The signal is bad up in the mountains, Uncle Chen. Bring up some warm liquid food, I'll feed him." Luo Beishi didn't suspect anything, thinking that the system might have given him a cheat code, programmed so that only he could make Huo Cixiao open his mouth?

I had doubts, but nothing came of it.

"Honey, aren't you hungry? I heard you don't eat lunch or dinner. Do you just want me to feed you?" Luo Beishi joked narcissistically.

Looking at the Flower of Illusion in the ice box on the bedside table, Luo Beishi felt a little unreal.

Although he later bought rock climbing skills from the system, he was really terrified when he first started climbing, especially when he climbed higher and looked down. He felt like he would lose his life if he slipped.

It wouldn't kill him, but he'd fall and be in excruciating pain; even so, he was still terrified.

Huo Cixiao: "..." Can I control it? I didn't even know I could control my mouth.

During this period, Luo Beishi's reputation grew, and many people invited him to events, sending numerous invitations, either in Luo Beishi's personal name or in the name of Huo Cixiao and his wife.

But without exception, they were all rejected.

The families who did reply all gave the same reason: they were too busy taking care of their husbands.

These ten simple words reveal arrogance, single-mindedness, and capriciousness.

However, many aristocratic families felt that Luo Beishi had already given them enough face. Although he didn't come, he replied, and his personality was just as rumored, without any sense of disappointment.

Judging from Luo Beishi's love for public welfare, these scholarly families with rich cultural heritage have greatly admired this young man and have always wanted to meet him.

Luo Beishi was too lazy to attend such boring parties; they were always full of arguments, framing, drugging, and all sorts of chaotic situations. What was the point of going?

But he would also seriously respond to some prominent families that he found agreeable.

Unless Huo Cixiao, that handsome man, accompanies me.

Now his aesthetic sense is getting more and more discerning. After seeing Huo Cixiao's aloof, profound, exquisite, and mysterious face, he sees everyone else as bland and uninteresting. He will compare any handsome man he sees, but his money-making husband always wins.

Online, Luo Beishi is more famous than some popular celebrities.

Luo Beishi's Weibo was followed by many celebrities, but none of them followed back. So they started betting on who would be the first person Luo Beishi would follow, and the celebrities all clicked the follow button to try their luck.

Many others were just there for the fun of it.

As a result, the hashtag # Luo Beishi # immediately became a top trending topic.

Luo Beishi was surprised, but also somewhat reasonable. After all, he was so rich now, it was normal for them to behave strangely.

Even top-tier celebrities came to follow him.

In just one night, he gained 20 million followers...

He, a villainous cannon fodder, has surprisingly gained so many fans.

Unbelievable.
