Chapter 106: Ye Tian’s Rampage, the Flower Girl!
“That’s right.” Liu Zixu sighed, his voice tinged with nostalgia. Who would have thought that Lin Yang, once even less capable than either of them, would rise from obscurity to become the chairman of a listed company in just three years after graduating from college?
His success story of entrepreneurship, becoming a CEO, marrying the woman of his dreams, and reaching the pinnacle of life was even featured by a media outlet in Linjiang City recently.
“Are you married then?” Ye Tian curiously asked Liu Zixu.
“I haven’t married yet. You know me, I’m a free spirit, not one to settle down easily,” Liu Zixu shrugged, not foolish enough to rush into marriage when his family was wealthy. He wasn’t ready to take over his family’s company and be tied down.
Ye Tian nodded, not surprised by Liu Zixu’s response, as most second-generation rich kids were similar.
“Are you here for business, Brother Tian?” Liu Zixu asked curiously, having always referred to Ye Tian this way since high school. Despite years of separation, it felt natural.
“Not exactly, I came to network today, slowly moving my overseas assets back to the country,” Ye Tian mused, giving a not-too-implausible excuse. Indeed, his primary aim was to build connections.
“Got it. I know a few young elites here. I can introduce you to them,” Liu Zixu offered, willing to lend a hand to an old friend.
He couldn’t have imagined that this small act would lead to dire consequences for the Liu family in the future.
“Thank you,” Ye Tian replied lightly, glad for the introduction.
“It’s nothing. They are over there; let’s go,” said Liu Zixu, heading towards a group of second-generation elites.

Elsewhere, Jiang Che noticed Ye Tian’s arrival.
“He recovered so quickly? Worthy of a protagonist!” Jiang Che mused, watching Ye Tian’s figure. He was surprised at the rapid recovery but remembered the protagonist’s fate-protected halo.
“What are you looking at?” Lin Xiyan asked curiously, not understanding why Jiang Che suddenly fell silent.
“Look, who’s that guy over there?” Jiang Che pointed in Ye Tian’s direction.
“Why is he here?” Lin Xiyan looked in the direction of Jiang Che’s finger and quickly spotted Ye Tian, her eyes filled with disgust.
“System, do you have anything for playing with others?” Jiang Che inquired in his mind, already plotting mischief for Ye Tian.
“System is listing items as per the host’s request.” Various items were listed, like the Bad Luck Charm, the Confusion Charm, and the Flatulence Charm, each with their prices in villain points.
“Give me one of each!” Jiang Che decided, excited about the possibilities.
“3500 villain points deducted, distributing charms…” Holding the charms, Jiang Che smirked mischievously.
“Wait here for a show,” he told Lin Xiyan, standing up and walking towards Ye Tian.

“Hey, isn’t this our esteemed Young Master Ye? What brings you here?” Jiang Che approached Ye Tian, speaking cheerfully while casually slinging an arm around his shoulder.
He deftly slipped three talismans into Ye Tian’s body without drawing any attention.
“Young master Jiang!” Seeing Jiang Che’s arrival, Liu Zixu and the group of wealthy heirs were initially stunned, then hurriedly greeted him.
“Hello, Young master Jiang…”
“Young master Jiang, you know Brother Tian?” Liu Zixu asked, puzzled.
If Ye Tian knew Jiang Che, why would he need Liu Zixu’s introduction? It would be more efficient and straightforward to ask Jiang Che directly.
“Yes, we are quite good friends,” Jiang Che replied, removing his arm from Ye Tian’s shoulder. “Isn’t that right, Ye Tian…”
“What exactly do you want?” Ye Tian eyed Jiang Che warily. He knew that with Jiang Che’s cheerful demeanor, he was up to no good. Moreover, Ye Tian and Jiang Che were sworn enemies, not friends.
“Are you still holding a grudge about me not inviting you to dinner last time? Why bother?” Jiang Che sighed, as if he couldn’t understand Ye Tian’s pettiness.
“Forget it, I have something else to attend to. Let’s catch up another time.” With that, Jiang Che left without looking back, inwardly anticipating Ye Tian’s reaction.
Frowning, Ye Tian watched Jiang Che’s departing figure, suspecting that Jiang Che’s visit wasn’t just a simple greeting. “That bastard must be up to something.”
“Brother Tian, you know Young master Jiang?” Liu Zixu asked once Jiang Che was gone.
“He’s my arch-enemy!” Ye Tian responded.
“Then why was Young master Jiang so friendly with you?” Liu Zixu asked, clearly confused.
Ye Tian shook his head, about to reply, when suddenly he clutched his stomach, grimacing in pain. “Toilet…” he managed to say through clenched teeth, his face turning red with discomfort.
“What’s wrong, Brother Tian?” Liu Zixu patted Ye Tian’s shoulder, concerned.
“The restroom is over there,” Liu Zixu pointed.
Just as Ye Tian was about to head to the restroom, a loud “pfft!” sound escaped him, followed by an overwhelming stench that quickly spread around him.
The group of heirs nearby wrinkled their noses, covering them to avoid the smell, and moved away from Ye Tian.
“Brother Tian… you?” Liu Zixu looked at Ye Tian, his expression a mix of confusion and disgust.
Just as Ye Tian was about to say something, two more sudden “pffts!” erupted, spreading an even more unbearable stench around him. The smell was so intense it almost knocked Liu Zixu unconscious.
“You!” Liu Zixu looked at Ye Tian angrily, quickly moving away from where Ye Tian was. He feared staying any longer might result in him fainting from the fumes.
“Zixu… I’m sorry.” Ye Tian awkwardly apologized, his face turning red with embarrassment. It was a terribly humiliating situation.
He couldn’t recall eating anything unusual, so why was he suddenly breaking wind, and why did it smell so foul? Taking a breath, he nearly passed out from the stench.
“Brother Tian, you should head to the restroom right away.”
Nodding, Ye Tian, clutching his aching stomach, was about to head to the restroom when his expression suddenly changed. His face twisted into a silly smile, drool dripping from his mouth, making him look utterly ridiculous.
“You…” Liu Zixu was dumbfounded at Ye Tian’s transformation. Was this man suffering from some bizarre illness? Just moments ago he seemed fine, and now he appeared completely foolish.
“Yo-ho, pretty lady!” Ye Tian, grinning idiotically, stripped off his suit and lunged towards Liu Zixu.
“What… what are you doing?!” Liu Zixu, terrified by Ye Tian’s crazed appearance, tried to escape, but was quickly pinned to the ground by Ye Tian.
Ye Tian, drooling and continuously breaking wind, eventually knocked Liu Zixu unconscious with the foul odor. Finding his target unconscious, Ye Tian lost interest and turned his attention to several young masters nearby.
“No, don’t come here!” The young masters turned pale with fear, frantically scattering around the venue.
Unfortunately, none could outrun Ye Tian, and they too were overpowered and rendered unconscious by his relentless flatulence.
“Pretty lady!”
“Get away!”
Ye Tian chased the young masters around the venue, turning a formal business gathering into his personal playground. Everyone steered clear of his path.
Jiang Che, watching from a corner sofa, was nearly in stitches seeing the chaos unfold. The system had truly outdone itself with these talismans.
An hour later, when Ye Tian regained his senses, it was questionable if he’d still have the courage to face the world.
“Does he have some kind of illness?” Lin Xiyan, observing Ye Tian’s wild antics at the venue, frowned, feeling somewhat relieved. She was glad she had fired him earlier; otherwise, she would be the one embarrassed today.
