Chapter 9 - May your wishes come true

Chapter 9: May your wishes come true!

Late at night.

Shen Anyu lay in a guest room, leisurely propped his legs, replying to Lin Keqing's messages to foster their relationship, instructing her on how to deal with the Child of Destiny, Xia Liu, and arranging various matters.

"Tomorrow, I'll go see Qin Ningbing, the first destined heroine of this Country Divine Doctor, Xia Liu's beautiful CEO fiancée!"

Shen Anyu thought about his upcoming plans, a playful glint in his eyes. The light from his smartphone screen cast shadows across his handsome face, highlighting the calculating curve of his lips.

Qin Ningbing. The name alone carried weight in the business world of Modu. She was the beautiful CEO of Magic City Renxin Hall Pharmaceutical Company, known for being extremely proud, strong-willed, and unyielding. She was an iceberg that would rather shatter than bend. In the original script of destiny, she was the ultimate trophy for the protagonist—a woman who required endless patience, humility, and medical miracles to thaw.

However, for Shen Anyu, he had full confidence in taking down Qin Ningbing!

And not through humble emotional appeals, or by playing the role of a devoted, submissive suitor like Xia Liu. That was the path of the weak. Shen Anyu would conquer her by being even more dominant than Qin Ningbing herself. He would not melt the ice with warmth; he would crush it with absolute power and remold it into a shape that pleased him.

Ultimately, he would make her willingly submit!

Because Magic City Renxin Hall Pharmaceutical Company was currently facing a huge problem. This big problem was originally meant to be solved by the Child of Destiny, Country Divine Doctor Xia Liu, who would use it to show off, humble others, and cultivate his relationship with his beautiful CEO fiancée—a typical plot of face-slapping and romance.

But now, Xia Liu, this Child of Destiny, the Country Divine Doctor, had already been arranged by Shen Anyu to be locked up in a detention center, with no end in sight for his release.

And Qin Ningbing's big problem would naturally be solved by the kind-hearted Shen Anyu, who would also help take care of Xia Liu's beautiful CEO fiancée.

When Xia Liu gets out of the detention center—if Shen Anyu ever decides to let him out—his expression will surely be very interesting.

"Oh, right, I have a good amount of destiny value now, I can draw prizes!"

Shen Anyu sat up slightly, the silk sheets rustling. He did a mental calculation of his recent harvest.

Before, from Lin Keqing, he had over eighty thousand destiny value remaining. Later, by ruthlessly crushing the spirit of the Child of Destiny, Country Divine Doctor Xia Liu, in the detention center; by conquering the tsundere Young Miss Su Hongmian with a high-speed thrill ride; and by influencing the beautiful police officer Lu Yan with his calculated generosity, he had gained over four hundred thousand destiny value.

Now, he estimated he had over five hundred thousand destiny value!

"Let's do a hundred consecutive draws!"

[Ding! Consuming one hundred thousand destiny value for a hundred consecutive draws!]

Shen Anyu's eyes showed anticipation, feeling quite excited. The familiar virtual roulette wheel spun in his mind's eye, a kaleidoscope of lights flashing by.

Ten consecutive draws guarantee a purple reward, a hundred consecutive draws guarantee a gold reward, and a thousand consecutive draws guarantee a god-level reward!

Shen Anyu didn't expect to be as lucky as before and get a god-level reward like God-level Steel Body so soon—that would be exhausting all his luck at once—but if he could get something useful, he would be satisfied.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have received a normal reward: an ice-type imperial green jade bangle!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have received a normal reward: a top-spec Maybach!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have received a normal reward: a yo-yo!]

"What kind of garbage is this?"

Shen Anyu felt indignant. He wanted something useful! A yo-yo? Was the System mocking him?

But just then, his eyes lit up as a dazzling golden light flashed across his vision, dispelling the gloom of the white rewards.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have received a gold reward: Extraordinary Perception!]

"Haha, my wish came true, I really got the Extraordinary Perception!"

Shen Anyu smiled, a look of pure satisfaction on his face. With the Extraordinary Perception, it would be impossible to ambush him. Just one word: awesome!

"Whew, amazing!"

When Shen Anyu tried the skill's effect, there was only one word to describe it: overwhelmingly powerful!

Instantly, the world around him seemed to expand. The sound of the rain outside, which was just a dull roar a moment ago, separated into millions of distinct drops hitting leaves, pavement, and glass. He could hear the breathing of people in distant rooms, the faint hum of electricity in the walls, even the flow of the wind outside. It was a god-like perspective of his immediate surroundings.

Just as Shen Anyu was deep in thought, reveling in his new power, the System's notification sound suddenly rang out:

[Ding! The host has consumed two hundred thousand destiny value, the System panel can now be activated!]

Shen Anyu raised an eyebrow and said:

"Activate the System panel!"

In an instant, a translucent light screen, like a waterfall of data, appeared before Shen Anyu, visible only to his eyes.

[Name: Shen Anyu]

[Age: 25]

[Cultivation: Early Grandmaster]

[Abilities: God-level Steel Body, Extraordinary Medical Skill, Extraordinary Perception, Top Musician, Top Driver...]

[Items: Ninety-three boxes of nutritious happiness, one latest model Huawei phone, one Maybach, one Heart of the Sky ring, one ice-type imperial green jade bangle...]

[Akarin's Note: "Nutritious Happiness" (营养快线/Nutri-Express) is a real, popular milk-drink brand in China. In Chinese internet slang, it is often jokingly referred to as a supplement men need to drink to replenish protein lost after "strenuous activities" (masturbation or sex). The system giving him 93 boxes is a cheeky nod to his harem lifestyle.]

[Destiny Value: 416,999] (One draw costs one thousand destiny value!)

[Title: Destined Villain]

"Destined Villain title?"

Shen Anyu looked at it and a smile appeared on his face. He tapped on the title to see the description.

"So that's how it is..."

With the Destined Villain title, he could ignore the halos of the Child of Destiny and the destined heroine.

He could kill the Child of Destiny without any restrictions from Protagonist Halos or destiny Luck! There would be no forced plot corrections, no sudden lightning strikes to save the hero, no impossible luck saving them from death.

There would be no critical moments where the Child of Destiny comes to the rescue, or other unexpected events.

"It seems the Destiny Plunder System has always been with me, it just wasn't activated before."

Otherwise, if he didn't have the Destined Villain title, Shen Anyu wouldn't have been able to take down Lin Keqing so easily. The world's laws would have intervened—Ye Yan would have come down the mountain early and directly played the hero saving the beauty.

But now, Shen Anyu had become Ye Yan's nemesis. He was a glitch in the matrix, a predator that the laws of nature didn't apply to.

How could Shen Anyu not be delighted?

"As for the flaws..."

Shen Anyu frowned slightly as he read the fine print. Having the Destined Villain title meant that the Child of Destiny was destined to be his enemy, and under the propulsion of fate, they would fight to the death!

The world itself would try to push them into conflict. Destiny would constantly arrange for them to meet, to clash, until one perished.

"Heh heh, if you want me dead, then I'll make you die first and take everything from you!"

Shen Anyu sneered, his eyes cold. He didn't care about any Child of Destiny. Whoever dared to make him die, he wouldn't let them live!

"Continue drawing prizes..."

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Just as Shen Anyu was about to continue drawing prizes, he suddenly heard a soft knocking sound.

His new Extraordinary Perception picked it up instantly—a hesitant, light rap on the heavy wooden door. He could hear the rapid, nervous heartbeat on the other side.

A playful smile curved on Shen Anyu's lips:

"Little Red Riding Hood has come for the Big Bad Wolf!"

He opened the door, and sure enough, it was Su Hongmian.

She had changed out of her day clothes. Now, she was wearing cute bunny pajamas made of soft, fluffy material. The hood had long bunny ears that drooped down, making her look incredibly young and soft, a stark contrast to her usual cool, proud, and arrogant demeanor. Her hair was loose and slightly damp, framing a face that was flushed a deep pink.

"Hmph! Bad guy, why did you tell my mom you're my boyfriend?"

Su Hongmian, wearing the cute bunny pajama, waved her fair little fists at him. Her pink lips parted to reveal her silvery teeth, coming to demand an explanation, though her posture was far less threatening than she intended.

However, Shen Anyu wouldn't indulge her. He leaned against the doorframe, looking down at her with amusement.

"You..."

Su Hongmian's pretty face flushed even deeper under his gaze. She glared at Shen Anyu, but there was no anger left in her eyes, only a lingering tsundere tone as she said:

"Hmph! Don't think that just because of this, I'll forgive you!"

"I'm not that kind of easy-to-get girl. There are plenty of guys who want to pursue me!"

"It's very difficult to be my boyfriend!"

Shen Anyu looked at Su Hongmian with a half-smile, stepping closer until he was invading her personal space. He spoke leisurely:

"Then how can you agree to be my boyfriend?"

"Hmm, let me think..."

Su Hongmian puffed out her cheeks, actually thinking seriously.

The more Shen Anyu looked, the cuter she seemed, and a playful glint flashed in his eyes...
