Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

"Yeah, the Lu family in Shimen!" Wang Ling looked puzzled at Xue Lin, who suddenly seemed hostile, and asked, "Xue Lin, what's wrong?!"

"Do you like Lu Xiaobu?!" Xue Lin asked Wang Ling warily.

Four competitors were already enough of a headache. Did she really have to go through a romantic rivalry with her best friend?!

"What, Lu Xiaobu? I don't like that playboy! I like his older brother, Lu Wenhuo!" Wang Ling rolled her eyes and said, "I like someone who's faithful!"

"Phew! Thank goodness! Thank goodness!" Xue Lin let out a long sigh of relief. It scared her to death!

Wait, that's not right!

If they really got together!

Wouldn't that make Wang Ling her sister-in-law?!

Oh my God!

What a tangled mess this is!

"Huh? No way!" Suddenly, Wang Ling realized something, and she looked at Xue Lin and said, "I remember you've never taken men seriously, but why do you care so much about Lu Xiaobu?! Could it be..."

Got to say, a woman's intuition is sometimes spot-on!

Hearing this, Xue Lin panicked!

"No! No! I don't like Lu Xiaobu!" Xue Lin denied it repeatedly, blushing!

"Ah, women in love really have zero IQ. Xue Lin, you just confessed without being forced!" Wang Ling rolled her eyes and said.

Having said this much, Xue Lin no longer hid it and openly admitted, "That's right, I like Lu Xiaobu! To be precise, he's won me over!"

"Wow! I didn't expect that both of us sisters have taken a liking to someone from the Lu family!" Wang Ling sighed helplessly.

Then, the two exchanged glances and sighed again, "Sigh!"

The next second.

"What if we form an alliance? You help me, and I'll help you!" Xue Lin proposed with a twinkle in her eye.

"Great idea!" Wang Ling immediately agreed, nodding quickly, "You help me solve my problems first, and then I'll help you from the inside!"

"Exactly, just like that. Now, tell me your problem." Xue Lin instantly got serious; this concerned her lifelong happiness!

"It's complicated but not; you know my family's style is super traditional! But the Lu family is completely the opposite, so there you go!"

Wang Ling shrugged and said, "You wouldn't believe it; after I gave myself to Wenhuo that day, I got caught when I went home! My dad almost went after Lu Wenhuo with a knife!"

"Then why didn't he go?" Xue Lin curiously asked.

"I told him Wenhuo is Lu Xiaobu's brother, so if he went, he'd probably not come back! Then I'd have to use myself to ransom him back! So he didn't go! Hahaha!" Wang Ling laughed heartily!

"Pfft!" Xue Lin laughed too, "You're really trolling your dad!"

"Who's telling him to always keep a tight rein on me!" Wang Ling rolled her eyes and said, "Sis, why are you back at Lin Feng's villa today?!"

"Today! Lu Xiaobu is here!" Xue Lin bit her lip and said, "So, I'm planning to seal the deal!"

"Wow! Bold move!" Wang Ling clicked her tongue secretly.

"Wait a minute!" Xue Lin suddenly had an epiphany, "Today is Lu Xiaobu's birthday, and Lin Feng invited you over; could it be!"

"What?!" Wang Ling was stunned!

"Your beloved is also here!" Xue Lin said definitively, "It must be; otherwise, Lin Feng wouldn't go through such a hassle! Most likely, Lin Feng used this as an excuse to bring Lu Xiaobu here!"

Got to say, Black Rose really is sharp; she basically guessed it right!

"Really?!" Wang Ling's eyes lit up!

"If nothing goes wrong, yes!" Xue Lin nodded.

"Xue Lin, you're amazing!" Wang Ling cheered, "There's probably no one smarter than you in this world!"

"Ha!" Xue Lin let out a bitter laugh—No one? There are two sitting right in the hall who have me running in circles!

"So what should we do?!" Wang Ling asked excitedly.

"Here's the plan: later, I'll go out with you!" Xue Lin gritted her teeth, although this approach differed from the original plan, overall it was good: "Lin Feng wants to match you, and so does Lu Xiaobu. With me as well, your father won't be able to resist!"

"Okay, let's do it! Once I've succeeded, I'll help you in return!" Wang Ling nodded firmly, "Tell me, what's your plan?!"

Thus, the two women started whispering about their plot within a plot!

In the end, they even gave their plan a name—'Marry into the Lu Family!'

Ah, what a simple and straightforward name!

...

"We've had drinks and watched the show. Time to get to business, right?" Lu Xiaobu asked Lin Feng.

"Of course!" Lin Feng clapped his hands, "Bring Miss Wang Ling and her father up!"

Dealing with Lu Xiaobu, you can never be too direct, or he'll confront you head-on!

You have to give a reward before a slap; that's the correct way to face off with him!

Lu Wenhuo, who stood nearby, shivered upon hearing this!

Lingling is coming?!

And her father?!

Is this a meet-the-parents scenario?!

He became so nervous that he started sweating!

Soon enough!

Wang Ling and her father, Wang Tianlai, along with the unexpected Black Rose—Xue Lin, arrived in the hall together.

Seeing Black Rose, Lin Feng frowned—what's her game?!

He regretted not letting Housekeeper Jia handle this; these subordinates were so incompetent!

Lu Xiaobu's eyes fell on Wang Tianlai.

A square face, walking and sitting with a soldierly air, clearly a very rigid person!

So, he frowned too!

You know what they say, "A scholar can't reason with a soldier!"

Such a person wouldn't listen to your logic; he'd just stick to his own. You can't fool him!

"Alright, let me make some introductions." Lin Feng sighed, resigned to improvise.

He stood up, pointing at Wang Tianlai, "This is Wang Ling's father, the head of the Wang Family—Mr. Wang Tianlai."

Wang Tianlai nodded to those around, greeting them.

He still didn't know who the two young men here were!

All he could tell was that one was lazy, and the other was tense.

So he waited for Lin Feng to introduce them.

The result!

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng teased a mystery: "As for these two gentlemen, I won't introduce them just yet!"

This statement immediately made Wang Tianlai frown; he felt uncomfortable!

What does this mean?!

And yet, Lu Xiaobu stroked his chin, seeming to somewhat understand what Lin Feng was planning!
