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

Zhou Shuqin slightly raised her chin, her expression haughty.

Although she didn't know how much Su Qingyue had given Ye Shu, it couldn't possibly be more than that.

That is indeed the case.

Su Qingyue offered Ye a price of five million.

Even though this ten million is already a third of the old man's annual allowance for the second wife, it could get Ye Shu out of the picture.

Then it's worth it!

"Do you think that girl Su Qingyue would like you?"

Zhou Shuqin looked down at him and said:

"Let me tell you, she's like a block of ice that can never be warmed up. Right now, she's just trying to appease the old man. Once she gets her hands on the Su family's core assets, she'll immediately break up with you and kick you aside."

"Compared to suffering humiliation here and then being disappointed, with this ten million, you can live a carefree life for the rest of your days, find an ordinary girl and settle down peacefully."

"Oh."

Ye Shu lowered his head, looking at the black card, and clicked his tongue in amazement: "Now that you mention it, it seems that's indeed the case."

"Instead of staying here and having to put up with other people's attitudes, only to end up with nothing, it seems better to take this ten million and live a carefree and happy life."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shuqin nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad, you're not entirely clueless."

"The money is right here. Just nod your head, sign a guarantee, and promise never to bother Su Qingyue again, and you can take the money and leave immediately."

She paused, then added:

"You don't need to worry about breaking the contract. Just make a bad impression at the dinner party and get the old man to cancel the engagement. Not only will you not have to bear any responsibility, but you can also get two sums of money without any problem."

"For you, this is like a windfall."

"So, if I don't accept, it would seem like I'm being rather unromantic?"

Ye Shu picked up the black card and twirled it around.

"That sounds really good."

"But... I refuse."

He suddenly leaned back, one foot on the edge of the table, tilting the chair up, and with a forceful flick of his right hand, threw the black card back onto the table. He then pulled a blade of grass from his crotch, put it in his mouth, put his hands behind his head, and said coolly:

"The thing I love most in my life is saying no to those who think they have the upper hand."

"You say Su Qingyue is a block of ice, so I'm going to try to melt her. Even if I have to lick her with my tongue, I'll melt her."

"Besides..." He glanced disdainfully at the black card on the table. "You think you can make me bow down for ten million?"

"What gives you the right?"

"What makes Su Qingyue think she can buy me? The five million she gave me?"

"Five million to buy me? Ridiculous."

He raised his eyelids, staring intently into Zhou Shuqin's eyes, and said, word by word:

"What she bought me was a marriage contract."

Five million would be enough to make him bow down?

Do you think the Dragon King is as easy as cabbage?

What truly moved him was Su Qingyue's marriage invitation. Once they were married, their assets would become joint marital assets.

This means...

Half of his 67 million debt will be transferred to Su Qingyue.

In addition, there was the five million that Su Qingyue gave him.

Their deal, roughly rounded up, should be around 38 million!

Losing 38 million for 10 million?

Even a fool could do this math, right?

Everyone thinks he's stupid, but he's actually incredibly witty!

Ye Shu smiled slightly, feeling that he had dodged another debt crisis. His wife could still carry half the burden; it was like Qin Shi Huang touching an electrical wire—he'd won big!

Zhou Shuqin had no idea about these intricacies.

She felt she had already humbled herself enough and tried to persuade him kindly, but this little bumpkin dared to play tricks on her like this!

"Okay...you're doing really well..."

She gritted her teeth, her finger pointing at Ye Shu trembled, and her chest heaved violently, making Ye Shu wonder if her fake breasts might suddenly burst open.

"You'd better not tell the old man what I just said, otherwise..."

Zhou Shuqin's eyes gradually turned cold.

"I have a fairly good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Li family. They control half of Yuecheng's underground business, so if you say anything inappropriate..."

"I, Zhou Shuqin, have a million ways to make sure you can't stay in Yuecheng!"

"Hiss~"

That's terrifying, I need to sit up and watch.

Ye Shu put his legs back down, and Fly rubbed his hands together, saying, "How could that be? You know I'm the most timid and cowardly person."

"You'd better be."

Zhou Shuqin snorted coldly and was about to pick up the black card on the table when she heard several coughs behind her.

"Cough cough cough..."

Looking back, they saw Su Qingyue helping Old Master Su out of the study and walking towards them.

The old man is getting on in years and his health isn't very good.

Standing there, he looks like a little old man; he seems kind and approachable, a very easy person to get along with.

"Qingyue, is this your boyfriend?"

Upon approaching, Old Master Su asked with a smile.

"Grandpa, this isn't my boyfriend, he's my fiancé~" Su Qingyue gently corrected the old man, her voice carrying a rare hint of coquetry.

Upon hearing this, the old man's smile widened.

"Okay, okay, fiancé."

He looked at Ye Shu and asked with a smile, "Young man, how was your chat with my Shuqin? Tell me about it."

Ye Shu had already sat up properly without anyone noticing.

He was so good to Su Qingyue that she thought he was a completely different person. After all, at home, this guy would rather lie down than sit, and sit than stand.

Ye Shu smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying:

"Actually, they didn't say anything."

"It's just that my aunt told me first that I'm no match for Young Master Chen, and that Su Qingyue gave me some money to help me cheat you. Qingyue is like ice that can't be warmed up no matter what. Once she gets married and gets her inheritance, she'll kick me to the curb, leaving me with nothing."

"Then he tossed me a black card, saying it contained ten million, much more than Su Qingyue had given me, and told me to behave poorly so that she would voluntarily break off the engagement, so that I could legitimately take the money and leave."

"Then I said that even if Qingyue is a block of ice, I would lick her until she melts it."

"A mere ten million is nothing at all."

"What made me agree to be with Qingyue was that marriage contract."

"After I finished speaking, my aunt became furious."

"She said she knows the eldest daughter of the Li family and has a million ways to make it impossible for me to stay in Yuecheng."

"And then you came."

"That's all we said, it's really nothing."

After Ye Shu finished speaking in a serious tone, he blinked his big, bright eyes at Su Qingyue with an expression that said, "Am I amazing?"

Su Qingyue: "....."

She sighed helplessly, rubbing her forehead.

Well, he really is a fool.
