for Advance Chapter

I took a deep breath and raised my wrist. There was also a metal object the size of a button battery there. This was the access point for the nerve docking surgery. I just thought it was very novel at the time, but I didn't expect it to cause such a disaster.

This reminds me of a saying by someone unknown: Once society cannot control technology, it will be controlled by technology.

The taxi left the bustling downtown area behind and drove along the river for a while before arriving at a large area with high iron walls on all sides, like a garden. The roofs of luxurious villas could be vaguely seen.

The surrounding area is full of lush green trees, and various flowers and orchids are in full bloom. The environment seems so quiet and elegant that it does not seem like the metropolis of Shanghai where every inch of land is valuable.

The driver's eyes widened as well. He had been driving a taxi for so many years and had driven almost every street and alley in Shen City, but he had never known that there was such a place. It was obviously the private land of the chaebol. It was simply amazing and he couldn't help but breathe heavily.

He looked through the rearview mirror at the young man in the back seat who was staring out the window. His clothes... well, he couldn't tell the brand, but the style was extremely outdated, and slightly ill-fitting. More importantly, it was old, with signs of wear and tear in many places.

Dressed like this, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's a bumpkin from the deep woods. In comparison, this place is indeed China's top wealthy family...

For some reason, he felt a little worried about this simple young man. This young man who didn't even know he was a member of the MA Party could be said to be the rarest type of person in this chaotic era.

After almost going around the entire huge garden, the gate is on the riverside side. However, compared with the huge area it occupies, this gate is quite simple.

In front of the gate, a limited edition Mercedes S-Class was parked steadily. A young man in a suit and tie stepped out of the car as the extremely tall driver opened the door to greet him.

At this moment, he saw a taxi parked not far away and frowned immediately. Huh?

How dare a taxi that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys stop in front of the Luo family's gate?

When I saw this familiar-looking gate, I suddenly felt an indescribable sense of intimacy in my heart. I have entered and exited this gate countless times before. To me, this is actually a place that can become home.

Uncle Luo, Aunt Luo, Xuetang, Uncle Qin... Oh, and there is also a little sister Yutang who, in my impression, is well-behaved, cute and very sensible.

Although I am just a son-in-law who has not yet "entered the family", I have actually been living here since I became conscious until I left at the age of eighteen.

In the past ten years, I have never seen my real parents even once. I can even say that apart from knowing that my father's surname is Li from my own name, I don't know anything else about him. Not only does I not know his name, I don't even know his identity. As for my mother, I don't even know her surname.

In this fog of mystery about my life, I only know that my parents seem to be close friends with Uncle Luo. Not only did they arrange a marriage for me since I was a child, but they also sent me here to grow up. It can be said that Uncle Luo is not just an ordinary elder to me, it is no exaggeration to say that he is my father.

Seeing the young man getting out of the taxi, the young man in a suit was first surprised, and then he couldn't help showing a sarcastic and mocking expression.

What's going on? How could a poor boy who looked like he had just run away from the mountains appear at the door of the Luo family?

Maybe he was just lucky enough to know the address here from somewhere, so he came here to try his luck and see if he could become the gatekeeper of the Luo family?

Unfortunately, he didn't know what status the Luo family had in Shen City. They were one of the four major chaebols, and it was no exaggeration to say that they could cover the sky with one hand. How could they let a poor boy like this with an unknown origin get in?

Even I can't become a guest of honor!

He is Xiang Anping, the son of Kaisheng Group, a famous e-commerce company in Shen City. He met Miss Luo Xuetang by chance at a banquet and was shocked by her beauty. Although Luo Xuetang was only polite after hearing his identity, she did not even give him his contact information.

But he was completely captivated by the sweet smile before leaving, and since then he has come to invite Luo Xuetang again and again... However, at the beginning Luo Xuetang only received him symbolically, but now he has been turned away. So far, he has been rejected three times in a row!

He wanted to see what ability this poor boy had to get in!

I got out of the car and paid with my smartphone... The driver was frantically searching for his phone. In this day and age, smartphones have quickly faded from the scene, just as they did when they first arrived.

Today's mobile payment, entertainment, communication and other functions have almost all been replaced by more convenient and complete neural docking bracelets. You don't even need to lower your head to look at your "mobile phone" while walking, because the content will be displayed directly on the retina.

Today's mobile phones, like cash, which had an awkward position in the past, have completely become a backup means. Only a "country bumpkin" like me who came from the mountains would use them.

After completing the payment, I said goodbye to the driver, walked past the man in a suit who was standing there stupidly, and went straight to the gate.

After being rejected three times in a row, Xiang Anping's admiration had already turned into a hint of resentment, so this time he specially brought... If he could successfully get Luo Xuetang to agree to go out with him...

He was naturally feeling a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, and just when he was feeling excited, he saw that rustic, mountain-dwelling man walk right past him without even a glance. He suddenly felt inexplicably annoyed and couldn't help but taunt him, "Hey, don't you know you've come to the wrong place? Don't you know Jinshan Garden is the place for you?"

The car door was not even closed, and the car did not start. In fact, the driver who was waiting for the young man to take his car back was suddenly worried when he heard these words. Jinshan Garden is a famous low-end talent market in Shen City, and the meaning of his words could not be more obvious.

Mountain people should do menial jobs...

The driver couldn't help but feel a little worried. He had a very good impression of this young man who was so rare nowadays, with a pure temperament, as if he came from twenty years ago. Seeing that a dispute was about to break out, he hesitated whether to go up and mediate, but when he saw and heard about the unique and luxurious customized Mercedes there, he was immediately discouraged.

He has a whole family...

Hearing the ridicule coming from behind, I shook my head and didn't want to pay any attention to such a person. I continued to walk towards the door. The man behind me seemed to be irritated. I heard a burst of hurried footsteps and the sound of waving arms in the wind.

I frowned slightly and misstepped my steps, avoiding the man's hand by a hair's breadth. However, he couldn't retract his movement, and he stumbled and fell to the ground, howling like a ghost.

"Catch him and break his legs!" Xiang Anping endured the severe pain in his knees and climbed up. His ironed suit became a mess. He was furious but couldn't vent it yet when he suddenly felt a wetness on his chest. He looked down and saw a circle of dark wet marks on the inside pocket of his chest.

He spent millions of dollars and used connections to buy this aphrodisiac perfume which was colorless, odorless and undetectable by any means, and now it has been ruined like this?

The beautiful dream was shattered before it even began, all because of such a poor guy!

For a moment, a strong feeling of shame and anger surged in his heart like a volcanic eruption, and he immediately called out loudly to the driver he brought with him. The security in the Magic City is extremely bad now, and he also spent a lot of money to invite a practicing monk from the temple. Although he cannot use the miraculous internal strength of martial arts masters,

But relying on the extremely profound external skills cultivated in the mountains, it is not a problem for him to defeat a transcendent with enhanced physique!

The extremely tall driver bodyguard also frowned. He actually didn't think much of his "master", but the temple needed... he had to be merciful and not beat the young man into an incurable comminuted fracture.
