53: Chapter 53: Laying Out the Shen Family's Plans, Heading to the Zhou Family
After quite a while, Chu Yuan finally let that mischievous hand stop its movements. He pulled Zhou Xiaodie into his arms and said softly, "Xiaodie, what are your plans for the future?"
Zhou Xiaodie wiped away the moisture from the corners of her eyes and lay quietly in Chu Yuan's arms, whispering like a mosquito, "I don't know what to do either. Whatever Young Master Chu says, I will do."
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for triggering a random mission. The Host may choose one of the following options."
"One: Completely eradicate the Shen Family and destroy Shen Wen's backing. Mission reward: 3000 villain points and one random item reward."
"Two: Subjugate the entire Shen Family for your own use. Mission reward: 5000 villain points and two random item rewards."
Is it time to make a move on the Shen Family?
The temptation of the second option was clearly much greater, but the difficulty of the mission was also significantly higher.
Although the Shen Family's strength was weaker than the Chu Family's, they were far away in the capital. Destroying them was difficult, and subjugating them was even harder.
In particular, since it was the family of the Protagonist, Shen Wen, wanting to subjugate them was no different from a pipe dream.
As a great villain, how could he only think about doing the easiest things? Naturally, he had to challenge the high-difficulty ones.
"Since all of this has happened, I naturally won't just wipe my mouth and refuse to acknowledge it. I plan to visit your home. What do you think?" A meaningful smile appeared on Chu Yuan's face.
"Visit my home?"
Zhou Xiaodie was stunned on the spot, then immediately became elated, "If Young Master Chu visits my home, my whole family will warmly welcome you."
What did it mean for Chu Yuan to follow her home? It meant that Chu Yuan valued her and wasn't just playing around.
Perhaps what her parents said last night might actually come true one day.
Chu Yuan was still single; if she could take it a step further... If she could marry into the Chu Family, she would truly fly up to the branches and become a phoenix.
It had to be said that Zhou Xiaodie was quite the dreamer. She hadn't even woken up yet and was already starting to have wild fantasies.
"No, I must seize the opportunity and take the initiative."
Originally looking exhausted and weak, Zhou Xiaodie instantly felt surging strength and became full of life.
"Alright, you're fine now."
"Yo... Young Master Chu, th... this is?"
Zhou Xiaodie was dumbfounded. Such miraculous abilities were likely not possessed by ordinary people. Perhaps only an immortal could do this.
At this moment, Chu Yuan's image in Zhou Xiaodie's heart was infinitely magnified, adding a layer of mystery.
Zhou Xiaodie began to notify her parents of the news that Chu Yuan would soon be visiting.
Chu Yuan also summoned Zuo Shishi and brought along a group of bodyguards. Two Land Rovers led the way, escorting the Rolls-Royce in the middle; it was truly a grand display.
"Shishi, where did that brat Zhang Yang go? Is there any news about him?"
Although he was busy chasing women and incidentally dealing with that useless live-in son-in-law Shen Wen, Chu Yuan had not forgotten his real business.
Zhang Yang, the Protagonist with a system, was still wandering around outside. As a great villain, how could he let the Protagonist live happily outside? This was a serious dereliction of duty.
"Young Master, our people have already been sent out, but that guy Zhang Yang seems to have evaporated into thin air; we've lost his trail," Zuo Shishi replied.
Gone?
"This guy is quite good at hiding, but he has forgotten one most important thing."
Chu Yuan curled his lips and ordered, "Send word down to acquire all the food delivery companies in the Magic City, and have all the delivery personnel registered."
What was Zhang Yang's greatest trump card? Wasn't it the Food Delivery System? If he didn't deliver food, Zhang Yang wouldn't even be as good as an ordinary person.
Controlling the food delivery companies was equivalent to seizing Zhang Yang's lifeline. Let alone finding Zhang Yang, dealing with him would be as easy as flipping one's hand.
"Alright, I will tell President Liu right away and ask her to handle it!" Zuo Shishi agreed immediately.
"Also, tell Yanran to buy insurance for every delivery person. Don't skimp on their company benefits either."
Chu Yuan suddenly thought that in his past life, delivery workers had no benefits and faced all kinds of fines. Sometimes, they would even run red lights for fear of being late, accidentally losing their lives.
Chu Yuan didn't have a heart of compassion or a desire to save the world, but since they would at least become his employees, there was no need to withhold the benefits they deserved.
Twenty minutes later, the motorcade stopped in front of a villa.
Zhou Xiaodie's parents, the Head of the Zhou Family and Miao Yue, along with her younger brother Zhou Cong, had already been waiting at the door for a long time.
Seeing Chu Yuan arrive, all of them came forward to greet him.
"Young Master Chu, you are truly a rare guest. Your arrival makes my humble home shine."
The Head of the Zhou Family leaned forward, bowing and scraping with a fawning face.
Beside him, Miao Yue covered her mouth and laughed, almost unable to close her mouth.
She had originally thought that Zhou Xiaodie had merely slept in Chu Yuan's bed. She didn't expect this little girl to be so capable that she could actually bring Chu Yuan back.
The Head of the Zhou Family and the entire Zhou Family dared not put on any airs in front of Chu Yuan.
They understood that even if Zhou Xiaodie was already Chu Yuan's woman, and even if she could really enter the Chu Family's gates in the future, they would still need to curry favor with Chu Yuan. This was the gap—the gap between families.
"Shen Wen, you useless piece of trash, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go make tea to properly entertain Chu Yuan."
"How did our Zhou Family raise a useless person like you? You waste food while alive and pollute the land when dead."
Seeing Shen Wen still stunned in place, with his fists clenched and showing signs of exploding, Miao Yue couldn't help but curse loudly.
