Great, we're doomed now!

On another occasion, he stopped a celebrity's youngest daughter from being bullied at school, ruining her reputation, but some people thought he was bullying the weak...

There were many similar incidents. At the time, he took it very seriously and specifically targeted a few malicious individuals to establish his authority, after which no one dared to spread rumors and slander him without cause. However, he did not restrain himself after that, seemingly completely indifferent to external opinions.

Those who truly understand Ye Shou, such as Liu Li, believe that Master is essentially a proud and aloof person who disdains to change because of the opinions of others.

...In reality, Ye Shou was just too lazy to explain, because even if he did, it wouldn't have any obvious effect.

It was my own choice, my idol!

——【A cute and charming villain】

This was one of the abilities Ye Shou had chosen before transmigrating. He was born with it in this world and it was permanently fixed without needing Destiny Coins.

What was originally a great deal, like a newbie gift pack, turned out to be something unexpected. Ye Shou didn't know what would happen next and just picked something randomly because it seemed interesting. He even deliberately chose two negative ones to reach the required points...

A cute yet charming villain

Your words and actions are often misunderstood, and even well-intentioned actions may attract negative public opinion and views, making you appear as a villain in the eyes of strangers, which is difficult to explain in words.

This will allow you to accumulate "hidden charm points," which will attract people around you. The more they interact with you, the more they will feel your charm, thus increasing your bond.

Additional information: When dealing with organizations or individuals with "evil" attributes, reducing their hostility makes it easier to gain their favor.

[Unlucky constitution]

• Regardless of luck, you are prone to unexpected events and encounters with the unknown. You also easily attract attention and draw in some strange individuals.

Additional: A sign of hardship for women.

Doesn't this look like the setup of a light novel protagonist?

Ye Shou initially thought so too, and wondered why it was a "negative buff," but after experiencing it firsthand, he understood—

It's really unpleasant to encounter this in real life!

In fact, more than 90% of the "misfortunes" we encounter in life are of no benefit whatsoever; don't even think about small perks like "Toma Opens the Door"!

Many things are just about manipulating people's mindset from one side only!

The same applies to [lovable yet charming villains]:

It might reduce the difficulty of winning over certain characters, but the restrictions mean that only a few close people are affected, and most people keep their distance from Ye Shou.

Of course, Ye Shou himself doesn't really like communicating with strangers, and he hates being surrounded and fawned over, so he is more satisfied with this state of being feared by others.

Most of the troubles and misfortunes encountered in daily life can be resolved with the power of money, so we can be considered to have grown up safely.

However, in return, his innate positive talents completely offset all disadvantages. In any case, Ye Shou has benefited greatly over the years; after all, just one "Golden Rule" is enough to make him invincible in the business world!

Fortune is a mystery; even if you Wall Street elites worked your butt off, you couldn't figure it out!

"Welcome home, young master." The impeccably dressed old gentleman was waiting at the door. "The master was supposed to return today, but something came up and he changed his plans. He asked me to convey his greetings to you."

"Not coming back?" Ye Shou frowned slightly, asking seemingly casually, "Is there some problem with the negotiations in North America?"

"No, everything is going well."

The butler lowered his eyes, looking as if he were indifferent to his own thoughts.

"I just ran into an old friend, so my trip was extended."

"Is that so?" Ye Shou glanced at him indifferently, said nothing, and walked home.

The butler breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the man didn't press the matter.

This matter is considered a semi-public secret within the family.

The relationship between Kuze and his son is somewhat delicate.

The two were originally very harmonious. After Ye Shou made great strides in the business world, his father became even more proud.

But as Ye Shou's achievements grew and his reputation became more and more prominent, even surpassing the previous generation in prestige within the group, things began to become delicate.

After all, everyone is willing to follow a genius who can create huge profits, just like soldiers worship the Champion Marquis or the General of Heavenly Strategy...

If Ye Shou is now in his thirties or forties, and his father is in his fifties or sixties and about to retire, then the handover between the two generations would be a natural progression.

But Ye Shou is not even twenty yet, and his father is in his prime. As a result, his presence in the group has been almost overshadowed by his son!

Of course, given their father-son bond, things didn't escalate to the point of mutual resentment. However, spending too much time with Ye Shou made him doubt himself, and with some resentment deep down, Old Man Kuze simply went to develop overseas business, spending long periods away from Japan.

As a seasoned capitalist warrior, that man was absolutely unwilling to retire now. He also wanted to achieve something and properly demonstrate his fatherly authority to his son...

Ye Shou only realized this after his father went abroad. He never intended to seize power, so he tried his best to bridge the gap between him and his father. But it was too difficult to get his father to achieve anything earth-shattering in a short time; it was simpler for Ye Shou to be a little "squandering" himself.

For example, the project he is currently leading: collaborating with a scientist to develop a new generation of virtual games.

Kuze was prepared for the project to fail in the womb and for him to lose everything!

The main purpose is to earn Destiny Coins, and secondly, to lure the father back. As a son, one always needs to show some immaturity so that the father feels relied upon and needed.

—My act of "spending a thousand pieces of gold to entertain my parents" would at least qualify me for the title of filial piety and integrity in ancient times!

Which friend?

Ye Shou asked casually.

The butler followed behind, pondering for a moment: "Master's senior from university now works at the United Nations and is currently lobbying scientific groups around the world to unite and work together to build a peace organization that transcends national boundaries."

Seemingly wanting to leverage the Kuse family's wealth and connections within the Japanese government, the master was surprisingly interested.

Dad is as energetic as ever... but it's unrealistic to expect him to achieve anything through a UN charity.

"I see." Ye Shou nodded, not caring.

It's nothing more than environmental protection, love and peace, the human genome, etc., nothing of substance.

Whether they are politicians or capitalists, aside from private exchanges of interests, they must do some public service to earn positive impressions if they want to appear respectable at the table.

The Jiu family has supported many such people or groups, and Ye Shou has been used to it since he was a child.

A world peace organization composed of scientists?

I wonder if the theme this time is "environmental protection" or "the future," haha~

Ye Shouhun carelessly put it out of his mind.

PS: Ye Shouyong's entry (initial)

The seven default terms you get at the start:

(Because it appeared in the previous life (no magic to low magic), there weren't many high-energy options that directly increased the panel, but there were many causal and conceptual ones, so I chose two negative ones to make up the points.)

front--

The Golden Rule

They are destined to be surrounded by wealth throughout their lives, never troubled by money, and can live the life of a tycoon as long as they want.

Wealth is not limited to a particular currency, but rather encompasses a broad range of "resources" for which access has been made easier.

[Transition Effects]

Just like the protagonist in a comic or movie who becomes much cleaner after turning around, when moving from one scene/dungeon/screen to the next, the protagonist's stamina will be automatically restored, and even some minor injuries can be healed.

【collector】

Just as Egyptian pharaohs and Chinese emperors took their wealth to their graves, true collectors should have their own "kingdoms."

Your soul is connected to an independent extradimensional space, which can be opened through meditation. You can take out or put items into it. Items will still pass through time within it, so it is not recommended to put living beings into it.

[King of Scrolls]

• Regardless of the field, their work and learning efficiency will far exceed the average level, and they can firmly remember all experience and skills without repeated review, and once they learn them, they will never forget them.

The more people you compete with, the more talented they are, the faster you progress and the higher your learning efficiency.

The more envy you experience, the more joy, even excitement, you will derive from work and study (and even from all areas of "competition," such as fighting).

[All Attributes]

Whether it's the earth, wind, water, and fire of magic, or the yin and yang and five elements of immortal arts, from the unique talents and secret techniques of a race to the profound inner cultivation methods that a sect never reveals to outsiders, none of them will be unable to be learned/mastered due to "incompatible attributes".

Chapter 3: Purity has been greatly improved!

"There's nothing else to do today, you can go and rest."

Ye Shou remembered something: "Don't forget the meeting with [Rect] tomorrow."

“Yes, Lord Ye Shou.” Liu Li nodded, knowing that Ye Shou valued this project highly.

Rect is a company deeply involved in the manufacture of electronic products. It is led by the Yuki family. Although it cannot compare with giants like Shinomiya and Suzuki, it is a well-established local player in the Kanto region.

Because of its partnership with the Jiushi Group, Rect has been specifically requested by Ye Shou for cooperation, making it a rising star over the past year.

However, Liuli knew that Ye Shou's real interest wasn't in this company at all. His true collaborator was a renowned quantum physicist and game producer. Bringing Rect along was merely a way to find a manufacturer for the scientist's project.

—Akihiko Kayaba.

His master's high regard for him was extraordinary, which made the maid dare not neglect him.

"If there's nothing else, Liuli will take her leave now."

Upon returning home, the black-haired girl, dressed as a maid, respectfully took her leave, skillfully and gracefully closing the two doors behind her, and letting out a slight sigh of relief.

"Lady Liuli." Someone greeted her in the corridor. "You've had a long day. Everything is fine at home today."

"Okay, that's good." Liuli nodded in acknowledgment, her steps uninterrupted, her secretary following behind.

—That's right, although Ruri is just a "maid", she has a private secretary.

"that……"

"Is there anything going on today?" Liuli turned around curiously.

"Nothing special, it's just that the Kohaku River family hopes you can spare some time..."

"In the future, there's no need to report such trivial matters. Just refuse directly. In the end, I have no obligation or reason to take care of those people's feelings."
