“It’s over. It’s over.”
“Host, you are seriously done for.”
After the male lead delivered his threat and left with grim determination, the System began bombarding me with warnings. “According to the plot, the male lead becomes the future Dark Emperor. The entire empire will be in his hands. You won’t be able to escape!”
“Then should I have my uterus removed now?”
“…”
While I was arguing with the System, I suddenly spotted a tall figure in the crowd. Noticing my gaze, the man silently raised a hand to cover his nose.
I opened a bottle of champagne and politely filled his glass.
“Don’t worry. President Yan’s nose is perfect.”
He lowered his hand and gave a soft cough. “Miss Yu, is there something you wish to say to me?”
“This isn’t the place.” I glanced at the media prowling around us like hungry wolves, then nodded to him. “Please follow me.”
I led him to an elegant, private guest room. As I shut the doors and windows tight, I laid out my entire plan.
Yan Luoxi sat on the sofa and listened in silence.
In the original novel, he and the male lead, Bo Ye, were lifelong enemies.
The two of them fought from childhood to middle age, then all the way into old age. But Yan Luoxi, who had no family of his own, ultimately lost when the male lead’s endless descendants launched their counterattack.
In order to save myself from a fate of being trapped in the obstetrics and gynecology department, I very seriously proposed using the Yu Family’s entire fortune to support his development.
After hearing me out, Yan Luoxi looked me over with a subtle expression.
The next moment, he suddenly rose from the sofa.
“Then, Miss Yu, if you support me, what is it you wish to obtain from me?”
I had to admit, with his tall, slender frame and that aloof, world-weary face, he was a dangerous blend of abstinent and seductive, giving him a uniquely captivating aura.
I was just about to explain when I noticed a red dot blinking in the corner.
Suspecting a hidden camera, I got up to check it first.
But when I turned back, the young man behind me had removed his suit jacket and shirt, revealing a smooth, marble-like chest and the firm eight-pack beneath it.
The frosted lamp cast a hazy glow over him, coating his body in a faint jade sheen.
Then, under my shocked stare, he lay down without moving a muscle.
“If this is the price, I can accept it.”
“Come on!”
Chapter 6
Faced with the vividly tempting body before me, I said expressionlessly, “Sorry, I’m not interested in President Yan’s naked body for the time being.”
“Oh.”
His expression remained perfectly normal as he got back up and put his clothes on.
“A misunderstanding. I was just a little hot.”
Once we returned to the matter at hand, Yan Luoxi stopped pulling any stunts and pondered it carefully for a while. “So, what Miss Yu means is that you want me to suppress Bo Ye with everything I have?”
“Exactly.”
“I hear this man has certain underworld connections.”
Seeing his hesitation, I calmly reassured him, “I believe that with President Yan’s abilities and the assistance of my Yu Family, you will surely be able to find a sliver of hope beneath the inescapable net he lays out.”
With that, I did not forget to pat him on the shoulder. “If you can kill him, don’t settle for crippling him. I believe in you.”
Yan Luoxi did not agree on the spot.
But as the Yu Family’s enormous investment arrived, he saw my sincerity and eventually accepted the olive branch.
For the next ten years, under my step-by-step instructions, he established connections with the imperial government and invested in the construction of the first private prison.
As the warden, Yan Luoxi naturally became the Living King of Hell.
Time flew, and the world changed in the blink of an eye.
The System had been right. Bo Ye soon took control of more than half the empire. His power reached the heavens, he had both the lawful and unlawful worlds in his pocket, and he was utterly unscrupulous in how he operated.
But even a man like that, capable of turning clouds to rain with a flip of his hand, could do nothing for the moment against this heavily guarded hell that housed thousands of the most vicious criminals alive.
No one knew that on the top floor of this prison, so tightly secured that even birds could hardly fly out, was the headquarters of the conglomerate jointly established by the Yu Family and Yan Group.
It was also the protective umbrella Yan Luoxi had custom-built for me.
Under the male lead’s relentless pursuit, which left no gap unsearched, I almost never went out.
But on the top floor of this prison, spanning several thousand square meters with birdsong, blooming flowers, a private club, and a swimming pool all included, my days were still extremely pleasant. Every day, besides eating, drinking, and amusing myself, I played chess with Yan Luoxi and occasionally discussed the plot with the System.
Living such a salted-fish life, I had no sense of time passing at all.
And so, under the united protection of the two great families, I safely lived until menopause.
