Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

In a rented room in Hangzhou.

After returning from the airport, Chen Mo sat down on the sofa.

Lu Xingyao tossed her limited-edition Hermes bag onto the sofa and nestled into Chen Mo's arms.

Su Wan pushed her suitcase into the bedroom and hung her clothes out one by one.

"You must be exhausted after this trip to Thailand."

Lu Xingyao turned over and buried her face in Chen Mo's belly.

"The air conditioning on the plane made my skin so dry."

Su Wan came out of the bedroom, poured two glasses of warm water, placed one in front of Chen Mo, and took one for herself. She sat on the armrest of the sofa, but not for Lu Xingyao.

Chen Mo picked up the water, took a sip, and turned on his phone.

"Over there, the renovation company has finalized the renovation plans for the two villas. I've seen them, and they're pretty good. The wall in the middle should be almost completely demolished by now."

Lu Xingyao lifted half of her face from his embrace.

"So fast?"

"The fee is 1.2 million. I've paid the money in full, and everything will be fast."

Chen Mo put down the cup, leaned back on the sofa, and reached out to pinch Lu Xingyao's waist.

"But to be honest, this is the first time I've bought a house in China. I used to be poor and always rented. I've moved so many times I can't even remember. Now that I finally have a place of my own, I'm really feeling..."

He didn't finish speaking, and looked down at Lu Xingyao.

Lu Xingyao sat up from his arms.

"What's up?"

"I'm a little nervous."

Chen Mo pulled her into his arms again, while his other hand wrapped around Su Wan's slender waist.

"I'm afraid it won't look good when it's decorated. I'm afraid it won't be comfortable to live in. I'm afraid I'll spend the money and end up with a showroom that doesn't feel like home."

Lu Xingyao was stunned for a moment, and Su Wan's hand, which was holding the cup, stopped on her knee.

"So after thinking it over, I realized I don't trust anyone else with this task."

Chen Mo looked at Lu Xingyao.

"Xingyao, you have great taste. All those videos on Douyin, the outfits, the color schemes, the backgrounds—weren't you the one who chose them all? Keep an eye on it, and if you have any requests, just tell the renovation company. Floor-to-ceiling windows, walk-in closet—you name it."

Lu Xingyao tried to suppress her smile, but couldn't.

"Su Wan".

Chen Mo turned to her, "You're observant. You can tell at a glance whether the workers are skimping on materials, whether the walls are smooth, and whether the finishing is meticulous. And just by standing there, they know that the lady of the house is not easily fooled."

Su Wan put down her water glass and intertwined her fingers with Chen Mo's.

"This is our first home in Hangzhou. You can decide how to decorate it."

Chen Mo stood up and placed the two car keys on the coffee table.

"Two cars, one for each person. Su Wan, get your driver's license as soon as possible, then you can drive one yourself."

I might not be able to focus on the renovations for the next couple of days. A friend of mine got into trouble, and I need to show up. I'll only feel at ease if you guys keep an eye on things for me.

Lu Xingyao had already picked up her phone and started searching for interior design styles, muttering to herself.

Su Wan put away the car keys and her gaze lingered on Chen Mo's face.

"Please keep things simple, I'm heading out now."

Chen Mo turned and went out the door.

He planned to visit Wang Jun at the hospital, but didn't want to bring the two women with him, so he had to find an excuse to send them away.

Wang Jun was merely a front man for Hongyuan Capital; the real power behind the scenes belonged to the Zhao family. Naturally, he didn't want his two daughters to be exposed too much or get involved in dangerous situations.

As for himself, with the system and the double portal, no one can threaten him.

Chen Mo picked up a fruit basket from a fruit shop near the hospital entrance and then picked out a bouquet of flowers from a flower shop next door.

He ordered a bouquet of lilies with baby's breath. The shop assistant noticed this and specifically reminded him that carnations would be more appropriate for visiting someone in the hospital. He simply replied that it wasn't necessary and insisted on having this bouquet.

The door to the VIP ward was suddenly pushed open.

Chen Mo walked in quickly, carrying a fruit basket and a bunch of lilies, his face full of undisguised anxiety.

"Jun-ge! Jun-ge, what's wrong, Jun-ge!"

He rushed to the bedside, placed the fruit basket and flowers on the bedside table, grabbed Wang Jun's hand, and frowned deeply.

"Brother Jun, as soon as I heard you were in a car accident, I flew back from Bangkok immediately. I was so worried the whole way. How could something like this happen to you when you were perfectly healthy? I'm heartbroken, Brother Jun."

When Wang Jun heard his voice, his eyes snapped to the side, and he saw Chen Mo's face.

His pupils contracted sharply, as if pricked by a needle.

Her lips trembled uncontrollably, her chin shook violently, and her entire head trembled wildly on the pillow.

"It was you! You did it! That video is fake! You're not dead at all! You tampered with the brakes!"

The woman by the bed was startled and stood up, almost dropping the towel in her hand.

Chen Mo straightened up, looking aggrieved.

"Brother Jun, Brother Jun, what are you saying? I don't understand. What's wrong with you, Brother Jun? I came to see you out of kindness, why are you cursing at me the moment we meet?"

Wang Jun let out a hoarse roar.

"Don't pretend to be a good guy! It's you! I know it's you!"

Chen Mo sighed and shook his head.

"Brother Jun, I understand you're upset about something this big happening to you. But you can't just falsely accuse your brother. Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

After so many years of friendship, as soon as I heard you were in trouble, I dropped everything and rushed to see you. And what do you do? The first thing you do is say I'm the one who caused your trouble. Jun-ge, this really breaks my heart.

He patted Wang Jun's hand as he spoke, his tone as sincere as could be.

Wang Jun's eyes were practically popping out of their sockets.

"Stop pretending! Don't touch me!"

Chen Mo released his hand and carefully examined the woman by the bed.

She was in her early thirties, with an oval face and very light eyebrows and eyes, as if they were painted on.

Wearing a beige knitted sweater, her hair was styled in an updo, revealing a section of her fair neck.

The knitted sweater clung to her body, accentuating her slim waist.

Her eyes were slightly red, she wasn't wearing makeup, and her skin was so white it was almost translucent.

She stood there, clutching a towel in her hand, completely still.

That kind of beauty isn't something you can create with makeup; it comes from within.

She exudes a strong sense of domesticity!

I feel pity!

Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat, as if some kind of Mengde-like quality within him was slowly being awakened!

"Is this your sister-in-law?"

He looked at the woman, his tone softening naturally.

"Thank you for coming all this way to visit him."

The woman glanced at Chen Mo; he was tall and handsome, with a great physique, and better than Wang Jun in every way…

"It's no trouble at all. Jun-ge has never mentioned to me how beautiful your wife is. If I had known she was this pretty, I would have come to visit you a long time ago."

Chen Mo glanced at the lilies on the bedside table, then looked at her. "These flowers were originally for Jun-ge. Before coming in, I thought it wouldn't be appropriate to bring lilies when visiting someone in the hospital. But now that I see you, sister-in-law, I think these flowers are the right choice. Only lilies are worthy of you."

Her whole face turned red, from her ears to her neck.

She lowered her head, twisting the towel in her hands.

Wang Jun, lying on his hospital bed, glared and roared, "You fucking stay away from my wife!"
