Urban: It turns out this is a comprehensive world

How can a celebrity put on a concert without any preparation?

Although the venue had been finalized long ago and the core equipment such as sound system and musical instruments had been set up, there were still some miscellaneous finishing touches to sort out. Fortunately, they were all small-scale events and could be completed in two or three days at most.

Based on her memories from her past life, Qin Qingcheng knew that Xiao Chen would usually pull some tricks after Luo Xixi's concert ended.

However, in her previous life, she only knew the basics. She only knew that Luo Xixi was being harassed, and then Xiao Chen jumped out and staged a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress drama, which earned him a lot of goodwill.

But Luo Xixi is not like Yu Bingyu; she wasn't bewitched by any inexplicable power.

So much so that when Luo Xixi later recognized Luo Lingtian and turned around to help Luo Lingtian deal with Xiao Chen, Qin Qingcheng even called her an ingrate and decisively cut ties with her.

Luo Xixi had presented evidence to prove that Xiao Chen had directed and acted in the harassment incident, but she hadn't listened to any of it back then. She was completely blinded by greed.

Qin Qingcheng was currently pondering that Xiao Chen would most likely try the same trick again, but whether he would do it after the concert was hard to say.

When she first awakened her memories in this life, she secretly plotted how to deal with Xiao Chen. But after all these days, she realized that it wasn't even up to the girls to make a move. Xiao Chen had already suffered a series of setbacks and stumbled several times.

The course of many things has long since deviated completely from the script of the previous life.

Therefore, Qin Qingcheng decided that she should have Luo Lingtian keep an eye on Luo Xixi in advance, so that she could keep her safety in her own hands.

At the same time, she also informed Yu Bingyu, asking her to remind Zhao Hao that Yu Bingyu and Xiao Chen were sworn enemies and would definitely get involved.

The atmosphere at the dinner table at Lingtian Manor that evening was just right.

Qin Qingcheng simply pretended to be Luo Xixi's little fangirl, and took the opportunity to bring up the information she had "gathered" to ask Luo Lingtian to take good care of Luo Xixi's safety.

Luo Lingtian readily agreed; this was no big deal for him.

In fact, he already knew about this. Even if Qin Qingcheng didn't say anything, Luo Xixi was his sister, so naturally he wouldn't let Xiao Chen succeed.

Furthermore, they notified Mo Yu and Ye Fan in advance, instructing them to be on standby at any time, so that they could deal with Xiao Chen together.

Mo Yu then relayed the message to Zhao Hao, thus completing the task force to deal with Xiao Chen.

Luo Lingtian was genuinely looking forward to this, and also a little curious. Faced with this situation, could that kid Xiao Chen really escape? You see, even though it was just one more person, and he didn't even plan to mobilize the Heavenly God Palace's manpower, he was now a genuine Gang Jin expert.

If this is how Xiao Chen managed to escape death, then Luo Lingtian can only sigh and say: You are truly the chosen one favored by the world.

When that time comes, he will no longer be in the mood to be a bystander.

There's no way around it, the chosen one is just too unreasonable. Don't be fooled by his current absolute advantage and the system he has. If Xiao Chen is really protected by the world's halo and ends up getting killed by the other side, that would be a huge loss.

However, plans can never keep up with changes.

With only one day left until Luo Xixi's concert, Luo Lingtian, as usual, took Qin Qingcheng, Dongfang Mingyue and Song Xinyan for morning exercise. After breakfast, they planned to go to the underground laboratory to work.

As for Xiao Chen, with Luo Ya, an artificial intelligence, watching over him, they can detect any slight movement he makes immediately, making it a veritable net.

But just at this critical moment, an unexpected phone call came in. It wasn't for Luo Lingtian; it was for Dongfang Mingyue.

"Mingyue, are you having a good time abroad?" The phone connected, and a kind, aged voice came from the other end, clearly that of an elder.

"Grandpa? Why did you suddenly decide to call me? I'm so happy! The tourist attractions abroad are really interesting."

Dongfang Mingyue answered with a smile, her tone light and cheerful.

The four of them had just finished breakfast and were sitting on the sofa in the living room to digest. Upon seeing this, they all subconsciously lowered their voices. But when they heard what Dongfang Mingyue said, the living room instantly fell silent, and even their breathing became lighter.

Luo Lingtian, Qin Qingcheng, and Song Xinyan all turned to look at Dongfang Mingyue with surprise, their eyes all asking the same question: No? Abroad? Haven't you been staying in China with us all this time?

Qin Qingcheng and Song Xinyan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise, and they had already guessed most of what was going on.

Luo Lingtian's eyes twitched slightly. How could he not understand that Dongfang Mingyue had never told her family about their relationship? She had been staying at her manor and not going home, which meant she had lied to her family.

No wonder that after the two confirmed their relationship, Dongfang Mingyue only showed up at the company a few times, and then stayed in the villa every day without going out. When she did go to the company, it was like she was stealing chickens and dogs, coming and going in a hurry.

It seems that from that time on, she used "going abroad for travel" as an excuse to deceive her family. Going to the company was something she really couldn't refuse, and she had to be constantly on guard against being caught by her family.

"Is that so?" Old Master Dongfang's voice came again. Although Dongfang Mingyue did not turn on speakerphone, Luo Lingtian's hearing was amazing, and he could hear every word clearly.

"But I heard that someone saw you in Haishi? And you were staying in a man's villa?"

Upon hearing this, the old man's loving tone vanished completely, replaced by stern anger.

Dongfang Mingyue's smile froze instantly, her tone became unnatural, her eyes darted around, and she didn't dare to look at Luo Lingtian and the other two at all. She stammered and tried to explain, "How could that be? You must have seen wrong! There are so many people in the world who look alike and have similar figures, it's normal to mistake one for the other."

"You've mistaken me?" Old Master Dongfang's voice suddenly rose, filled with undeniable anger. "I have photos here. Do you think I can't even recognize my own granddaughter? Hmph, Lingtian Manor, is it? Should I go and see for myself?"

"No...no need, Grandpa."

Dongfang Mingyue's voice weakened instantly, losing all its confidence.

Even the name of Lingtian Manor was mentioned, which means that Grandpa really knew her whereabouts, and there was no use in denying it anymore.

"Hmph, you're really something! You've got a boyfriend, so what's the point of hiding it from your family?"

The old man's tone softened slightly, and Dongfang Mingyue felt much relieved. She tentatively asked, "So, Grandpa, you don't object?"

"I know Luo Lingtian, of course. He's a very outstanding young man. I didn't have any objection to you being with him."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mingyue's smile slowly faded. The word "originally" was just like "but"—a sure prelude to something sinister, and nothing good was sure to follow.

Sure enough, Old Master Dongfang's tone shifted, becoming serious again: "But that boy is already engaged to that girl from the Qin family, and they're living together now. If you get involved with him, are you going to become a mistress?"

"Grandpa, what mistress? Our relationship isn't what you think. We get along very well..."

Dongfang Mingyue hurriedly spoke up to defend herself, saying that although the logic was correct, the way the group of people got along was indeed not something outsiders could easily understand.

But Old Master Dongfang didn't give her a chance to explain, interrupting her directly: "Alright, stop talking nonsense with me."

"Go home right now, and bring that brat Luo Lingtian with you. I need an explanation for this!"

The call was abruptly ended as soon as he finished speaking, leaving only a busy tone.

Dongfang Mingyue looked at Luo Lingtian with a pitiful expression, her voice trembling with tears, "Lingtian, we're doomed, Grandpa knows about us."

"You!"

Luo Lingtian sat down beside her helplessly, gently poking her forehead with his finger. He was both annoyed and amused. "Being with me, do you really have to hide it from your family? Are you afraid I'll deny it and leave you to face their questions alone?"

He knew perfectly well that if Old Master Dongfang were truly angry, he wouldn't just be calling to question him; he would have already brought a group of thugs to his door, eager to break his legs.

"Alright, stop looking so gloomy. I'll go back with you. It's been a while since I've seen the old man, so we can pay him a visit."

Luo Lingtian reassured him, saying that as a pillar of the Dragon Kingdom, many senior figures in the country knew his name, but few were truly close to him.

After all, he has been living in Haishi for many years. Even if those old men appreciate him as a junior, they wouldn't make a special trip to Haishi to chat and reminisce with him.

So apart from Old Master Qin in the capital, he only had some connection with three other old men in the central region of the Dragon Kingdom who also lived in Haishi, though they rarely met.

Meanwhile, at the Dongfang family's old mansion, a tall, imposing middle-aged man, seeing Dongfang Ling (Old Master Dongfang) hang up the phone, asked in surprise, "Dad, Mingyue... she's really with that Luo Lingtian kid?"

"How could this be fake?"

Dongfang Ling snorted coldly, then sighed helplessly, "That brat is quite capable; he managed to abduct our Mingyue without anyone noticing."

"Um...you don't seem very angry."

Dongfang Hui coughed lightly, noticing that the old man's attitude was a bit off, and carefully spoke.

"If you, as the father, aren't angry, why should I be?"

With a light snort, Dongfang Ling glanced at his son and said irritably.

"How could that be? I'm very angry."

Dongfang Hui said expressionlessly.

"Alright, stop pretending. Trying to put on an act in front of your old man?"

You're my son, kid. I know what kind of shit you're going to take just by sticking your butt out.

"What will we do after that kid Ling Tian arrives?"

Dongfang Hui knew that his skills were insufficient in front of the old man, so he could only change the subject.

"What can we do? What else can we do? Of course, we have to fight for a proper status for that girl Mingyue. My granddaughter of the Dongfang family cannot be a nameless mistress."

The old man from the East spoke with a firm tone.
