Chapter 238: Succubus or Scumbag

Ding!

Little Dove’s favorability toward you has increased by 5 points.

Current favorability: 35 points.

The system notification sounded right on time.

However, Shen Yu remained unfazed, maintaining the appearance of a gentle, charming young man.

"Are you going to open the door or not? How long do you intend to leave me standing here?"

"Oh! Oh! Don’t be upset! I’ll make you something to eat!"

Little Dove obediently opened the door, put on a cheerful smile, and hurried toward the bedroom as if she intended to put on some makeup.

Unfortunately, Shen Yu had no intention of giving her time to prepare.

"There’s no need. Let’s get straight to the point. I came here to discuss something with you."

"Ah? What is it?"

Little Dove froze, her wide, innocent eyes staring blankly at Shen Yu.

"Here. Take a look at this."

He shook the fox medal hanging against his chest, the corners of his lips curling upward.

"Do you know what this is?"

"I do! It’s the badge of a sales team leader!"

"Good. Then do you know what I’m about to say?"

Little Dove’s eyes brightened.

"You’ve become a team leader! Does that mean I can come and see you whenever I want?"

She made her guess with an almost foolish expression, a smile already beginning to spread across her face.

But—

Shen Yu’s expression suddenly changed.

"Wrong."

His voice turned cold.

"I’m showing you this to prove how much I’ve grown. Before, I was just an ordinary salesperson. I barely had enough standing to take you on a date."

He paused, allowing his words to sink in.

"But in less than three days, I’ve become a team leader. Give me another three days, and I’ll be part of management, just like your father."

He looked directly into her eyes.

"I’ve been improving this entire time. And what about you? You’ve been standing still."

Shen Yu turned his back to her.

"The only reason I came here was to tell you one thing."

He began walking toward the door.

"You’re no longer good enough for me."

"But... but I like you! I’ll do anything for you!"

Little Dove’s eyes immediately reddened. She hurried after him and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Ding!

Little Dove’s favorability toward you has increased by 5 points.

Current favorability: 40 points.

"Like me? Can love be eaten?"

Shen Yu turned around, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Fine. If you insist that you truly love me, then it’s time to put that love to the test."

He folded his arms.

"I’m urgently in need of help from the upper levels. Can you bring me your father’s medal?"

"This... this..."

The moment she heard him mention the medal, Little Dove visibly hesitated.

Shen Yu shook his head in disappointment.

"See? Is this what you call love? It’s really not worth much."

"I... I..."

"Darling, have you thought about it carefully?"

His expression softened as he began painting a picture of their future together.

"If you help me now, it’ll be an investment in our future. Once I become part of management, we can get a house on the fifth floor. We’ll continue working, have two chubby children, and occasionally enjoy some beef and horse meat in our spare time."

He smiled warmly.

"Wouldn’t that be a much better life?"

This wasn’t merely psychological manipulation anymore. Shen Yu had begun constructing an entire future for Little Dove, using every trick in a scumbag’s playbook.

Snake Catcher Su Xian: "OMG! I’ve learned something new!"

"From now on, this is how I’ll handle blind dates. I’ll state my requirements upfront. If a woman doesn’t own an aircraft carrier or isn’t at least three thousand years old, she shouldn’t even bother approaching me!"

"Damn! Are you looking for the Queen Mother of the West?"

Dragon Nain Jing: "Awesome!"

"Shen Yu is such a scumbag now! One minute he’s wearing a cold expression, and the next he’s smiling warmly. If a stray dog met him on the street, he’d probably get tricked, too!"

"Shen Yu’s tactics remind me of a delivery guy I once knew. He supported his girlfriend while she studied for her exams. After she passed, she dumped him, saying she’d been improving while he’d made no progress delivering food!"

"Damn! I gave all my energy to supporting you. When was I supposed to have time to improve myself?"

Evil Spirit Nightning Kaichin: "Everyone, remember to love yourselves. Don’t sacrifice everything for someone else and forget to invest in your own future!"

"Does that actually work? That postgraduate girl wasn’t normal, and neither is Shen Yu!"

"Of course Shen Yu isn’t normal. Isn’t he practically a succubus?"

The comments section exploded with laughter and discussion.

"Looks like you don’t really like me that much after all."

Seeing that Little Dove was still hesitating, Shen Yu turned around and walked away.

Suddenly, a figure flashed past him.

Little Dove was even faster than he was, rushing out of the room and straight through the doorway.

Once outside, she turned to look at him anxiously.

"So... so it’s settled, right? If I bring you the medal, will we get engaged tomorrow?"

"That depends on how you behave."

Beep!

Little Dove’s favorability toward you has increased by 5 points.

Current favorability: 45 points.

Without wasting another second, Little Dove rushed toward Room 512 in her slippers.

She moved like lightning.

Inside Room 512, Old Master Fu was still lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, resting peacefully. He didn’t even notice when the door opened.

A small figure tiptoed behind him, then slowly reached toward his chest.

Come on, Dad!

For the sake of my love and happiness, you’ll forgive me, right?

Dad, Dad, I love you!

Every word of affection came naturally as Little Dove reached for the medal without the slightest hesitation.

The scene looked exactly like a young woman persuading a man to hand over his household registration documents so she could secretly marry her boyfriend.

"Hrrr..."

Old Master Fu snored softly, showing no sign of waking up.

Little Dove glanced at him one last time, grabbed the medal, and hurried out of the room.

Only after she had disappeared did Old Master Fu slowly open his eyes.

His expression suggested that he had known everything all along.

That girl wants the Chicken medal.

Lin Wan probably wants Shen Yu to deal with Monkey.

He sighed inwardly.

Can the Fox Faction really bring down the Perfect Human?

His gaze drifted toward his own lower body, where one leg was missing.

After a moment, Old Master Fu closed his eyes again.

"Shen Yu, look! I got the medal for you!"

Outside Room 514, Little Dove proudly held up the medal as though she had just won a great battle.

"Give it to me."

Shen Yu snatched it from her without the slightest courtesy.

Little Dove immediately pressed closer to him, repeatedly sniffing his scent.

"So... so we’re agreed, right? Tomorrow, we’ll go and register our marriage?"

"Didn’t I already tell you? It depends on your actions."

Shen Yu examined the medal.

"Your performance so far has satisfied me. You’ve officially made it onto my list of potential marriage partners."

His tone was casual, as though he were discussing a business arrangement.

"Next week, if you continue to satisfy me, I might consider getting engaged to you."

"Ah? Really? Is that true?"

"Of course. Otherwise, do you think I’m this easy to win over?"

Shen Yu waved his hand and headed toward the elevator.

"I have other things to do. You should start thinking about how you’re going to find me next time."

"I... I..."

Little Dove stood frozen outside the room, completely at a loss.

She looked like someone who had reached a doorway but had no idea what to do next.

"OMG! Shen Yu, you shameless green-tea master!"

"Lin Wan and Lin Yao can be so casual around him, but with Little Dove, he puts on a whole performance. I’m done!"

"I can only say that this is Shen Yu’s everyday life. A beginner in the dating world just encountered a top-level succubus!"
