I'm the villainous Dragon King? I start with a free 100-pull gacha pull for the female lead!

Inside the bar.

Completely drunk, Liu Ruyan looked at Ye Shu, whose face was full of worry, and suddenly shrank back in fear. She tried to pull her hand away but couldn't, so she covered her face with one hand and whispered, "Don't...don't hit me...I really know I was wrong..."

"It wasn't you..."

Ye Shu looked at Liu Ruyan, who was like an ostrich, with surprise.

It's been so long, yet I still remember it.

Oh no, it was only the day before yesterday, so it's alright now.

But something sounds weird to me; it makes me feel like I'm the kind of man who abuses his wife.

He swept the wine away from the table with his hand, frowning as he said:

"Who told you to drink so much? Don't you know it's bad for the baby..." Seeing Liu Ruyan's timid appearance, he suddenly changed his tone and asked with concern, "Don't you know it's bad for your health?"

"I...I couldn't help it..."

Like a child, Liu Ruyan pouted in grievance, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

"I'm so heartbroken... I just realized... I just realized how much of a failure my life is... I thought Luo Chen liked me for three years, but it was all an act. I thought you liked me... but you don't care about me at all..."

"No...nobody cares about me at all..."

"I thought I was the pillar of the Liu Group, the envy of everyone in Yuecheng, but why?"

"With just one word from Grandpa, I lost everything..."

"He said I wasn't ready, that he was going to hand the Liu family over to Old Master Mo, and that I should rest... I've worked so hard for so long, done so much... Why should I...?"

"I'm only now realizing that my life is filled with failures..."

Ye Shu listened silently until she stopped crying and started sobbing softly while holding his hand, then slowly said, "That was really quite a failure."

"So this is your solution?"

He pulled out a chair and sat down, unusually serious, wanting to give Liu Ruyan a lesson in life philosophy.

"Get drunk here and give up on yourself."

"Then she'd be picked up by someone, lose her virginity in a daze, and maybe even get pregnant with a child whose father she doesn't know, completely ruining her life?"

"You want to make them regret it this way, to satisfy their guilt with your own suffering, and then say in your heart: 'See, it's all because of you that I'm suffering so much now, are you satisfied?'"

"To gain a sense of existence in this distorted way, and to find a morbid satisfaction from that sense of existence..."

"Young Miss, you've been reading too many female-oriented novels, haven't you?"

After saying that, Ye Shu couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

His words were so profound, so sharp, so thought-provoking; they must have deeply touched her soul.

However, all he saw was Liu Ruyan biting her lip, her large eyes filled with tearful grievances, looking at him with pleading eyes, and then...

"Whoa!!!"

Instead of repenting, she threw a tantrum like a child, tears streaming down her face.

"You yelled at me! Grandpa yelled at me too! You all yelled at me! Waaaaah, I hate you all, you, you're all such bad guys! I just wanted to drink... what did I do wrong... Waaah... I'm sad... I want to cry... is that wrong too...?"

"I just... I just don't want anyone to see me..."

"If someone saw me looking like this pathetic creature..."

Perhaps emotions overwhelmed the dam of fear.

Liu Ruyan cried out and threw herself at Ye Shu, holding his shoulders with both hands, opening her small mouth and biting his shoulder hard.

"I'll bite you to death! You heartless bastard who abandoned your wife and children... You're nobody to me... You don't even care about me... What right do you have to talk about me like that... It's all your fault... I'll bite you to death... I'll bite you to death..."

Ye Shu was speechless as he watched Liu Ruyan biting his shoulder like a madwoman.

How can ordinary teeth bite through well-trained flesh? It's like scratching an itch, it doesn't hurt or itch at all, it's more like a kitten being affectionate.

She herself had lost her mind, actually trying to reason with a drunkard. If she could reason with a drunkard, would she still be a drunkard? And how could she even get drunk then?

"After all that, it was all for nothing."

"Forget it, she's still the mother of my child, what's the point of being so harsh?"

Ye Shu gently hugged her and patted her back, just like he did on TV when he was comforting a child.

"Don't cry, don't cry, Daddy's here."

"Ugh..."

Liu Ruyan sobbed softly, clinging to his shoulder and pressing her face against it, "You're not my father... My father died a long time ago..."

"..."

After silently mourning for Liu Qingtian for a second, Ye Shu sighed softly, "Wrong, wrong, it's the child's father here."

"The child's father?"

Liu Ruyan was visibly stunned for a moment. She looked up at him with teary eyes and asked in confusion, "What do you mean, 'child's father'? Whose child is it? Whose father is it?"

Look, he's so drunk he's forgotten about the kids.

Ye Shu's face was full of heartache and fatherly love, as well as a trace of concern for the mother of his child. He gently stroked Liu Ruyan's smooth, flat belly and said affectionately, "Our child, Ruyan, although I don't love you that much, now that we have a child, I will naturally take responsibility..."

I have to say, the mother of the child has a really good figure.

Her skin was so smooth and delicate, you could feel its exquisite texture even through the thin fabric. Her waist was slender, without an ounce of excess fat... Wait, where's the baby?!

Ye Shu's deep affection abruptly stopped.

What's going on? There's no sign of life in Liu Ruyan's stomach, only a surging torrent of wine.

Even after he checked repeatedly, it was still empty.

What?!

The child is fake!

To think that his illustrious reputation could be so easily undone by that fool Liu Weiwei?

It’s so deceiving!

Ye Shu instantly withdrew his hand, the deep affection on his face slowly fading, replaced by an expression of annoyance at being tricked.

But Liu Ruyan was different... She raised her head and thought about it seriously for a moment, then stroked Ye Shu's cheek with her hand. How could her muddled mind think so much?

"So, so we have a child?" she mumbled groggily. "Then...won't you leave me?"

"..."

Ye Shu was speechless. He looked helplessly at Liu Ruyan lying on top of him. Although it was a misunderstanding, they had already gone this far. Did they have to give up halfway?

But working for free isn't his style.

After thinking it over, his eyes lit up, and he took out his Nokia phone to call the old man of the Liu family.

"Hey! Old Bi Deng, your granddaughter is in my hands right now. She's dead drunk and completely out of her mind. If you don't want your granddaughter to go back to the Liu family pregnant the next day, you'd better settle the wages you owe me right now!"

He refused to believe that he couldn't get back the wages owed to him; Ye Shu never worked for free!

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by the old man's puzzled voice, "You mean, my granddaughter is with you now, and she's completely drunk. If I don't pay you, you're going to get her pregnant?"

Is that what I meant?

Ye Shu blinked in confusion, but to project a threatening image, he forced himself to continue, "That's right! I, Ye Shu, keep my word and never joke. Otherwise, you can expect to be holding your great-grandchild next year!"

"Okay, okay!"

Liu Wenshan said "good" three times in a row, grinning from ear to ear.

"Ye Shu, as you know, the Liu family has been experiencing some cash flow problems lately, so as for wages... hehe..."

"Holy crap! You old bastard, you can't...."

A bad feeling rose in Ye Shu's heart. Just as he was about to curse, the call was abruptly disconnected, leaving only a series of busy tones.

"No way, are all wealthy families this heartless these days? Their own precious granddaughter isn't even worth a single day's wages..."

He looked at Liu Ruyan, who was nestled in his arms, wriggling around like a kitten, occasionally stroking his lower abdomen, with a happy yet sad expression on her face.

This time, we're truly out of options.
