42: The Destined Son Became a Beggar

A Qi, who was by Chen Tianming's side, suddenly had her eyes turn sharp.

She looked into the distance.

"Master..."

Chen Tianming knew what she wanted to say.

He waved his hand.

"Don't mind her."

Although these dead servants' cultivation wasn't as high as his,

their perception of killing intent was quite formidable!

Lin Yu was detected from such a long distance away.

The car entered the main gate.

It drove into the villa.

And disappeared from Lin Yu's sight.

"That guy just succeeded a few days ago. Based on the timing, he'll go out and meet Bai Muning sooner or later. That'll be my chance!"

Lin Yu gazed into the distance in the direction Chen Tianming had left.

He thought silently to himself.

After a moment of silence,

he suddenly felt a deep sense of exhaustion.

He couldn't help but sit down on a park bench.

Since a few days ago,

he hadn't truly rested.

Even at the Police Department, it was the same.

Now that he was relaxed,

Lin Yu felt his eyelids fighting to stay open.

He actually fell asleep sitting there...

When he opened his eyes again,

it was already the next morning.

He slowly got up.

His clothes were soaked with dew.

Sticking to his body.

It was very uncomfortable.

Just then,

his expression suddenly changed!

After some fumbling,

he found that his wallet was gone!

His entire body,

except for the phone he had held in his hand even while sleeping,

had nothing left!

Clearly,

a thief had stolen all his valuables after he fell asleep!

If the thief hadn't been afraid of waking him up,

his phone might not have been safe either!

"Damn thief!"

Lin Yu was filled with rage.

His anger had nowhere to be released!

By now,

he had nothing left except a watch and a phone.

Lin Yu slumped to the ground in despair.

He wondered if it was his imagination.

He felt that ever since Chen Tianming had targeted him,

his luck had become ridiculously bad!

It seemed as if the whole world was against him!

As if to confirm his thoughts,

a sound of footsteps approached.

A shadow blocked the sky.

Lin Yu looked up.

He saw two or three shabbily dressed men stop in front of him.

They spoke unkindly:

"Where are you from?"

"Don't you know this territory is already taken?"

Lin Yu was dumbfounded.

He had no idea there was such a rule.

Wasn't a park a public place?

Before he could react,

a rain of fists fell upon him...

Lin Yu didn't even have time to scream.

He fell down like a dead dog.

He could only passively endure the beating.

After a series of punches and kicks,

the leader raised his hand to stop the others from continuing.

"This time, we'll just teach you a lesson!"

"Remember, this is our territory."

"Get lost!"

After the beggars left,

Lin Yu took several deep breaths before slowly recovering.

He cursed the damn beggars a few times in his heart.

Covering his stomach with one hand,

he found a dark, damp corner and sat down.

This was a place even beggars were unwilling to come to.

After a long time,

it was easy to get sick.

Now it had become his temporary resting place...

...

Inside the villa.

Chi Wange leaned against Chen Tianming's chest.

Her snow-white skin was now a vibrant crimson.

Like a blooming flower.

Trembling slightly.

"Not bad. At this rate, it's only a matter of time before I get the extra reward."

Chen Tianming glanced at Chi Wange's black favorability.

He nodded secretly in his heart.

Very satisfied.

Releasing Chi Wange, who had reached her limit,

he casually picked up his phone.

Upon seeing Lin Yu's current situation,

his mouth twitched for a moment...

"I wondered why the Devil's Value notifications kept ringing."

"Originally, I just told A Qi to suppress him casually."

"I didn't expect him to be so miserable..."

"But, I like it!"

As a villain,

he had no reason to sympathize with the child of destiny.

The relationship between them was inherently one of life and death.

The more miserable Lin Yu was,

the happier he became.

Putting down his phone,

Chen Tianming glanced at Chi Wange.

Anyway, there was nothing to do for the next three days.

It was a good time to try new positions from another world.

"Did you bring the things I asked you to bring?"

Chi Wange's delicate body trembled.

A blush flashed across her pretty face.

"It's... it's in the bag in the corner..."

"Good, put them on."

The biggest difference between humans and animals is the ability to use tools.

Chen Tianming nodded in satisfaction.

...

The park.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The sun in the sky slowly set.

Lin Yu gradually felt a pang of hunger.

"Grumble..."

He reached out and rubbed his stomach.

Most of Lin Yu's money was in his wallet and credit cards.

Mobile payments were not well developed in this world.

He only had a very small amount on his phone.

Now, driven by hunger,

he found a nearby supermarket.

He picked out a loaf of bread.

And with some mineral water,

he hid back behind the concrete pillar.

Swallowing mouthfuls of dry bread...

Lin Yu couldn't help but wonder,

how did he end up like this?

He used to be in society,

not in a high position,

but he was considered a white-collar worker.

His life was quite good.

Unexpectedly,

in just a blink of an eye,

everything vanished.

He had actually fallen to the point of fighting with homeless people for territory!

This wasn't a rise and fall;

this was a free-fall descent!

"...It's all because of Chen Tianming!"

Lin Yu's eyes gradually became fierce!

His hatred for that person who appeared gentle and refined on the surface,

but was actually a demon in human skin,

grew deeper!

When the hatred faded,

a hint of fear couldn't help but rise in his heart!

If he hadn't accidentally overheard their conversation,

he would have no idea how he had fallen into such a predicament!

This feeling of the world being a chessboard and all living beings being chess pieces,

made him tremble slightly.

—This kind of person is too terrifying!

"Fortunately... I still have hope of turning things around!"

Lin Yu forcibly pulled himself out of that sense of powerlessness.

His eyes gradually became firm.

As a child of destiny,

he seemed to naturally be very confident in any situation.

However, confidence ultimately couldn't feed him.

Lin Yu finally understood why even homeless people were unwilling to come to his current location...

The area by the river not only had many mosquitoes,

but also a strange foul smell.

As time passed day by day,

he had barely had a good night's sleep these past few days.

There were also a few times when he fell asleep

and fell into the water.

Although he climbed out in time,

his clothes were soaked because of it.

Coupled with malnutrition,

the wind blew,

and he actually developed a low fever.

At this moment, Lin Yu was tattered all over,

covered in stains,

with disheveled hair,

and bloodshot eyes.

He truly looked no different from a beggar...

...

While the child of destiny was suffering,

Chen Tianming was in a tender embrace.

After setting down the boneless Chi Wange,

Chen Tianming glanced at the time.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards...

"Has the appointed time finally arrived?"

Under these days of torment,

Lin Yu's luck was now less than a third of what it once was.

"It's time to harvest!"

Chen Tianming murmured to himself.

A cold smile played on his lips.
