Chapter 73: The Plan to Assassinate Hu Weidong!

What happened next was straightforward. Under the dumbfounded gazes of everyone, Tang Chen purchased every piece of clothing from the high-end display area. He gave his address to the head waitress, instructing her to deliver the clothes promptly.

As for that little bitch, Tang Chen kept his word and bought the uniform she was wearing. The head waitress wasn’t stupid; she had no desire to end up like that little bitch, dressed in a bikini and being hauled out by security.

Tang Chen now drove off in his Extravagant Battle Car with Yang Mi, heading to his villa complex. Zhang Xin had certainly done a thorough job; the place was fully furnished and ready for move-in. It truly lived up to its luxury status. Guards stood watch at the entrance, and upon recognizing the flashy Extravagant Battle Car, they promptly opened the gates without a word. They had witnessed how respectfully Boss Wei, the manager, treated Tang Chen during his visit.

Rumor had it this overly young, ridiculously wealthy guy had bought all twenty-three villas here…

Tang Chen parked the Extravagant Battle Car temporarily in the underground garage. He and Yang Mi then entered the villa to explore. After the tour, Tang Chen settled onto the sofa, while Yang Mi naturally perched herself on his lap.

“Honey, this is going to be one of our homes from now on,” Tang Chen said, wrapping his arms around her waist and whispering in her ear. “If we get bored here, we’ll move to another villa. We could switch houses every day and still have enough places to stay for over half a month.”

Yang Mi’s face radiated happiness. She grasped Tang Chen’s hand, interlacing their fingers tightly, and spoke with emotion, “Tang Chen, I never imagined I’d live a life like this one day. It feels like a dream to me.”

Hearing this, Tang Chen chuckled softly. Who wasn’t like that? When he first got his System, everything that happened felt like a dream too.

“You’ll get used to it,” he said, smiling adoringly as he gently ruffled her hair. This little woman had truly captured his heart utterly.

Yang Mi playfully swatted his hand away from her hair, then turned to look at him, her eyes curved into crescent moons. “Ever since I met you, it feels like my entire life changed. Tang Chen, thank you for being so good to me. I love you.”

Her confession made Tang Chen’s heart skip a beat. He leaned in closer, capturing her red lips with his own.

“Not now, it’s still daytime!” Yang Mi gently pushed him back, separating their lips. This man of hers seemed to have an endless appetite for that sort of thing – wanting to get naughty in broad daylight!

“I want to emulate Lü Buwei!” Tang Chen grinned mischievously, pulling off his own shirt. Yang Mi gasped, her face flushed crimson, but she didn’t stop him as he buried his face between her magnificent peaks.

In ancient times, Lü Buwei and his wife famously closed their door for seven days, their intimate pleasures beyond description. Children, please close your eyes now, because what follows next might be a little inappropriate for young readers…

And so, night fell. Yang Mi lay thoroughly exhausted, sound asleep on the bed. Tang Chen sat grumpily on a chair. He was becoming convinced those ancient stories were total lies.

Damn it! He couldn’t even manage one day! How the hell did that bastard Lü Buwei last seven days? What brand of Viagra was he using? Was he truly that much of a beast?

He gently kissed Yang Mi’s eyelashes, then turned anxious as he spoke to the System. “System, about this retaliation from the Small Knife Society… got any good ideas?”

The System responded mockingly, “Respected Host, it seems I haven’t misjudged you completely. I feared you’d drown yourself in debauchery and become useless. But the fact that you’re still capable of considering your Mission suggests your brain hasn’t completely turned to mush.”

“Get lost! It’s your brain that’s mush!” Tang Chen’s face darkened in anger. Getting serious, he continued, “Cut the nonsense, System. Your brain works better. Tell me – do you have a decent plan or not?”

System: “Respected Host, stop relying on the System for everything. You’re not a child anymore. You should develop some independent thinking.”

Tang Chen’s lips twitched. After a moment, he exploded, “Screw you! I told you I’m not in the mood for jokes! Why are you screwing around with me, huh? Damn you! Are you just being an idiot on purpose?”

The System seemed stunned by this barrage. “Respected Host, due to your disrespect towards this System, a mute function will now activate. From now on, don’t discuss anything with me.” With a beep, the voice fell silent.

“Hey! Hey! Shit! Are you seriously muting yourself?” Tang Chen was on the verge of a breakdown. He hadn’t expected the System to actually go through with it. He pleaded pitifully, “System Oppa, this Young Master was wrong! Speak, please! Screw your sister! Even if you’re really muting yourself, at least help me think of a plan before you mute! Your grandmother! You damned beast!”

Tang Chen wished he could hurl every curse he knew at the System. This thing was unbelievably infuriating!

He finally understood: relying on heaven, earth, or the System was pointless. The only real thing to rely on was himself!

Tang Chen rubbed his chin thoughtfully. He wasn’t going to agree with Fang Wenxin and his crew’s plan. Besides, he’d already refused them so firmly; going back on that would be slapping his own face.

“Got it!” Inspiration struck Tang Chen. He smacked his own head, muttering to himself, “I’m such an idiot! ‘To catch the rebels, first catch the leader!’ I’ll just take out that Hu Weidong directly! Without its head, the Small Knife Society will be a mess! How do they fight the Zhongmen Society then? All Fang Wenxin and the others need to do is seize the chance to attack the Zhongmen Society… Then the Mission would be half complete! Hell yes! This Young Master is freaking brilliant!”

Saying it, he would do it. Tang Chen planned to ambush Hu Weidong using the same method he’d used to injure Yu Zeyuan that night. But he didn’t know where Hu Weidong was!

“Respected Host,” announced the System, the one who’d threatened muting, “You can activate the ‘Lock-on Target’ function in the Extravagant Battle Car. Input the target’s name, and the car will take you directly to them.”

Tang Chen gloated, “System, you jerk! Didn’t you threaten to mute yourself? Why are you speaking? Were you just stunned by my brilliant plan?”

The System responded coldly, “Heh. Respected Host, don’t flatter yourself. This System simply didn’t want to see you wander around like an idiot. I don’t recognize hosts who are such fools.”

“Screw your uncle!” Tang Chen almost wished for a kitchen knife to stab the System. Couldn’t this bastard communicate normally? He’d actually been a little touched it offered help, only for the jerk to immediately insult him again! You are the idiot!

Tang Chen quietly slipped out of the villa, closing the door behind him. He didn’t want to wake Yang Mi; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to leave.

He strode into the parking garage. The Extravagant Battle Car seemed to sense his approach. Before Tang Chen even took out his keys, its headlights lit up, and the doors swung open.

Tang Chen climbed into the driver’s seat and instructed as per the System earlier, “Activate Lock-on Target function.”

“Virtual Assistant Xiao Mei at your service for the Young Master. Lock-on Target function activated. Please input the target’s name now,” a slightly mechanical female voice announced. The Extravagant Battle Car was impressively smart.

After Xiao Mei spoke, Tang Chen’s dashboard display retracted to both sides, revealing a green dotted line with the words: ‘Input Target Name’.

Tang Chen traced the name “Hu Weidong” onto the dotted line with his finger. The line vanished. Xiao Mei spoke again, “Virtual System commencing target trace. Target: Hu Weidong. Male. Age 19. High school student. No recorded bad habits.”

“Target locked. Target currently located at Apartment X, Estate Y, Z Avenue. Route mapping now displayed. Young Master, initiate auto-navigation?”

Without hesitation, Tang Chen ordered, “Initiate auto-navigation!” As his voice fell, a virtual route map materialized. The Extravagant Battle Car surged out of the garage. A fierce grin spread across Tang Chen’s face as he mentally addressed Hu Weidong, “Hu Weidong, wait for me! This Young Master is coming to send you straight to hell!”
