The divorce comeback system arrived right after I was born.

Chen Zhi replied with a message: 【What happened? Tell me in detail.】

Pei Ningxue replied very quickly, almost instantly, seemingly waiting for him by her phone.

My dad wants me to attend a business cocktail party tonight. He says he wants to introduce me to some of my uncles' sons and help me network with people in their social circles.

[I didn't want to go, so he threatened me, saying that if I didn't go, he would send me abroad to study business and I wouldn't be able to stay in China.]

Looking at these two lines of text, Chen Zhi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

He slapped himself on the forehead.

That's it?

Is this what the system calls the "evil powerful family," the "bargaining chip in a business marriage," and the "cold cage"?

Isn't this just standard practice for rich people? The so-called "getting to know each other" probably just means drinking champagne, chatting about golf, and maybe exchanging some compliments.

Isn't it just about letting the younger generation get to know each other and expand their network?

"This stupid system exaggerates every day, it scared the crap out of me."

Chen Zhi cursed the system's ancestors in his mind. He still thought that Pei Ningxue's biological father was really going to force this unattainable beauty to marry off to some balding old man.

Recalling the last time I saw Pei Ningxue's father at the parent-teacher meeting, although he was a bit stern, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would sell his daughter for personal gain.

It seems that this biological father wants to groom Pei Ningxue as his successor and wants to introduce her to business partners.

but……

Chen Zhi touched his chin.

Since the system has issued a task, it means that Pei Ningxue's resentment level is indeed very high. Moreover, the task requires "elope with her and make her parents die of anger."

This is interesting.

Chen Zhi replied: 【So what do you want?】

【I don't know either.】

Pei Ningxue sent a sighing cat emoji, [As long as I'm not stuck at home and don't go to that lousy party, it's fine. So annoying.]

This was the first time in three years that Pei Ningxue had shown such girlish emotions.

In the past, whenever this woman sent a message, she would first send a picture of herself in black stockings to pave the way, and then send a voice message to flirt with him.

He actually became serious today, which made Chen Zhi a little unaccustomed to it.

Just as Chen Zhi was still feeling sentimental, Pei Ningxue sent another message.

Chen Zhi, take me with you. Let's elope.

Chen Zhi: "..."

Okay, I take back what I just said.

This woman is still the same bad woman.

elopement?

How could she say that?

But since you want to play, I'll play big with you.

Chen Zhi's eyes darted around, and an extremely despicable... no, extremely perfect plan took shape in his mind.

What's the most effective way to infuriate those wealthy, upper-class parents?

Of course, they would use the most down-to-earth, rustic, and unacceptable method to abduct their precious daughter.

"I have a plan that can relieve your worries," Chen Zhi replied.

Pei Ningxue: [I would like to hear the details.]

Chen Zhi: [Wait, remember to open the door at 8 PM tonight.]

After sending the message, Chen Zhi put his phone in his pocket, got up, and went out.

……

Half an hour later.

Next to a barbecue stall downstairs in an old residential area in Jiangcheng City.

"Brother Zhi! Over here!"

A young man wearing a yellow Meituan delivery uniform was sitting on a plastic stool, waving at Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi walked over and looked at the boy in front of him, whose skin was tanned dark but whose face was beaming with a bright smile.

"Long time no see." Chen Zhi pulled out a chair and sat down, looking at the yellow robe Li Jiahao was wearing. "What's going on? Meituan's emperor's robes now?"

Li Jiahao scratched his head and chuckled somewhat sheepishly, "Hey, Brother Zhi, don't tease me. I just couldn't concentrate on my studies. You know the environment at vocational high school. After two years, it was really boring, so I decided to come out and make some money."

As he spoke, he poured Chen Zhi a glass of water. "But you, Zhi-ge, I've heard about it all—the top scorer in the province! That's incredibly impressive! I was bragging to the guys at our station that the top scorer in the province is my buddy, and they didn't believe me!"

Chen Zhi took a sip of tea and looked at his classmate who had entered society too early, feeling somewhat emotional.

"Really? You're not going to study anymore?" Chen Zhi asked, frowning. "I remember you were so confident before, saying you were going to get into a junior college and then move to the same city as your online girlfriend. You've given up so quickly?"

When the words "online girlfriend" were mentioned, Li Jiahao's eyes lit up instantly.

"They're talking! They've been talking all along!"

Li Jiahao excitedly leaned closer, lowering his voice as if sharing some earth-shattering secret, "Brother Zhi, let me tell you, she's amazing! She scored over 600 points on the college entrance exam this time!"

Chen Zhi almost spat out his tea.

"How many?"

"Over six hundred! She didn't give me the exact number, but it's very high!" Li Jiahao said proudly. "She told me she could get into Renmin University without any problem! Renmin University, Brother Zhi! That's a top university in Beijing, right?"

Chen Zhi frowned even more as he looked at Li Jiahao's smug and foolish expression.

"No, are you an idiot?"

Chen Zhi retorted without hesitation, "Renmin University? It's one of the top 985 universities, a school that only the top few hundred students in the province can get into! Would a top student from Renmin University even consider a vocational high school delivery guy like you?"

Damn it, they're not going to screw me over again, are they?

"Don't you fucking do the same thing as that Liu Xiaoyan from last time." Chen Zhi was a little scared.

"No, no! This time it's definitely different!"

Li Jiahao panicked and quickly waved his hands to explain, "Brother Zhi, believe me, this time it's for real! She's a good girl!"

"We met in a rider group. Her family was very poor. Her parents favored boys over girls and didn't want her to continue her studies. They wanted her to work in a factory."

Li Jiahao recounted the story vividly, "To save money for tuition, she worked as a food delivery driver during the summer vacation. That's when we met. She's truly inspiring; she studied while delivering food and still managed to get into Renmin University. How could a girl like that be a fraud?"

Did you meet them in a rider group?

Family poverty?

Strive for self-improvement?

This persona is overly elaborate.

But looking at Li Jiahao's love-struck appearance, Chen Zhi sighed.

Forget it, now is not the time to dwell on this.

I'll go to the National People's Congress again sometime to help this silly boy inspect the goods.

"Alright, put your love story aside for now." Chen Zhi waved his hand. "I called you out today because I have something important to discuss."

"Brother Zhi, what's the matter?" Li Jiahao immediately sat up straight. "As long as it's within my power, I'll go through fire and water!"

"No need to go through fire."

Chen Zhi glanced around and lowered his voice, "Among your friends from vocational high school, are any of them involved in that kind of thing?"

"Which one?" Li Jiahao looked completely bewildered.

"It's that..." Chen Zhi gestured, "Will-o'-the-wisp."

"Will-o'-the-wisp?" Li Jiahao's eyes widened. "Brother Zhi, what do you need that for? Isn't that something only young men with a 'rebellious spirit' drive? You're the top scorer in the province, riding that would be beneath you!"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Chen Zhi took out his phone from his pocket, glanced at the time, and said, "I want the most exaggerated modification, the loudest exhaust pipe, the flashiest lights, and preferably one with a subwoofer."

"Do you have it?"

Although Li Jiahao did not understand, he was deeply shocked.

"Yes, there is... I have a classmate who modifies bikes, and he has one that's absolutely awesome." Li Jiahao hesitated for a moment, "But Brother Zhi, are you sure you want to ride that? If that thing makes a sound, your parents will have raised you for nothing."

"That's exactly the effect I want—like my parents raising me for nothing."

Chen Zhi's lips curled into a wicked and arrogant smile. "Just tell me if you can borrow it or not."

"Yes! It absolutely can!"

Without saying a word, Li Jiahao pulled out his phone and started calling for help. "Brother Zhi, wait here, I'll have him bring the bike over right away!"

……

Twenty minutes later.

Accompanied by a deafening "putt-putt-putt" sound, a brightly colored, dazzlingly modified motorcycle stopped in front of the barbecue stall.

The motorcycle was covered in flashy stickers, the exhaust pipe was so thick you could fit a fist in it, and two large speakers were hanging on the handlebars, blasting cheesy DJ music.

Passersby cast disgusted and shocked glances at them.

"Brother Zhi! The car's here!"

Li Jiahao pointed at the will-o'-the-wild motorcycle, his face full of praise, "This is the king of will-o'-the-wild motorcycles in our area! How about it, is it awesome enough?"

Chen Zhi circled the car once and nodded in satisfaction.

That's so corny.

It's noisy enough.

That's embarrassing.

Simply perfect.

"Thanks, bro."

Chen Zhi patted Li Jiahao on the shoulder and stepped onto the chariot, which exuded an unconventional vibe.

"Brother Zhi, where are you going?" Li Jiahao couldn't help but ask. "Looks like you're going to cause a scene?"

Chen Zhi put on the same helmet covered in stickers, his eyes gleaming with excitement behind the goggles.

He twisted the accelerator.

boom--!!!

A tremendous roar erupted instantly, causing the dogs on the roadside to bark wildly.

"I won't go to the streets to cause a disturbance."

Chen Zhi's voice sounded particularly arrogant amidst the roar.

"I'm going to elope with a rich girl!"

After saying that, he released the clutch.

The brightly colored, ghost-flame motorcycle, accompanied by deafeningly cheesy background music, roared towards Pei Ningxue's villa area.
