"Trapped by a man?"
Could it be Lin Beifan?
Lu Mobai's heart tightened, and he nearly typed out that thought.
But after a moment of reflection, he dismissed the idea.
In his previous life, Leng Qingyue had only met Lin Beifan a year later at a poetry conference.
Right now, Lin Beifan was still an unknown figure in the Magic Sea, far from having any connection with Leng Qingyue.
But regardless of whether it was Lin Beifan or someone else, the thought of another man hovering around his woman made Lu Mobai's stomach churn with disgust.
Mo Bai: Who is it?
Qingyue: You wouldn't know him, so I won't bother mentioning his name.
Mo Bai: Just tell me. It's not like we know each other in real life. Consider it venting your frustrations.
Qingyue: True… Well, his name is Zhao Tian. He's extremely annoying!
Lu Mobai frowned.
"Zhao Tian? That name sounds familiar..."
He rummaged through his memories and suddenly recalled a man from his previous life—someone widely known as the Dragon King!
Although the guy had plenty of flaws, there was no denying that he was an exceptional young man.
His family background and personal abilities were top-tier.
Most importantly, he had been Lin Beifan's sworn enemy.
In the past life, Zhao Tian had even teamed up with several other elites to take Lin Beifan down.
Unfortunately, Lin Beifan was too terrifying. Their alliance had failed miserably.
"Could that bastard be trying to steal my woman now?"
No… that didn't seem likely.
As far as he knew, Zhao Tian and Leng Qingyue had never had any connection.
Besides, "Zhao Tian" was a common name—there had to be hundreds of thousands of them online.
Surely, this was just a coincidence.
Mo Bai: What kind of person is he?
Qingyue: Hmm… how should I put it?
Qingyue: He's extremely narcissistic, extremely pretentious, and extremely arrogant!
Lu Mobai's heart skipped a beat.
The Zhao Tian he remembered was extremely narcissistic, pretentious, and arrogant!
Qingyue: Every time he shows up, he's always surrounded by a group of bodyguards in black suits. He closes off roads, makes a huge scene—he even slaps random dogs that cross his path, just to show off!
Lu Mobai's eye twitched.
The Zhao Tian he knew also loved making a dramatic entrance, always flanked by men in black!
Qingyue: And his combat skills are ridiculously strong!
Qingyue: I once saw him beat up a group of thugs single-handedly, like it was nothing!
Lu Mobai clenched his fists.
The Zhao Tian he knew was also an expert fighter, one of the few people who could pose a real threat to Lin Beifan!
Qingyue: The worst part? He already has a wife, but he still has the audacity to flirt with me!
Lu Mobai nearly slammed his keyboard.
That damn guy did have a wife in their previous life—one who constantly tormented him and made him wash her feet!
Qingyue: Even after I rejected him so many times, he still has the nerve to say, "Only a woman like you is worthy of me! You can't escape my grasp!"
Lu Mobai let out a cold laugh.
Now, he was 90% sure that the man Leng Qingyue was talking about was Zhao Tian!
But he needed one last confirmation.
Mo Bai: Does he have any other… unique traits?
Qingyue: Oh, definitely!
Qingyue: Every time he speaks, his mouth twitches in this weird way, like he's about to break into an evil grin but got stuck halfway.
Qingyue: Oh, and people call him… the Dragon King!
Qingyue: Seriously, who still calls themselves "Dragon King" in this day and age? It's hilarious!
Lu Mobai's pupils shrank.
There was no doubt now.
It was him.
Dragon King Zhao Tian.
Only he could be this narcissistic, pretentious, and arrogant.
Only he would bring an entire entourage of bodyguards just to flex his status.
Only he could have a wife and still shamelessly flirt around.
Only he had that god-awful crooked smirk.
Only he called himself Dragon King!
"Zhao Tian, you bastard! I haven't even started dealing with you yet, and you're already stealing my woman? Even Lin Beifan didn't act this fast!"
Lu Mobai's chest burned with fury.
He had left the country to escape Lin Beifan and build his own empire…
Yet, while he was struggling abroad, his own so-called ally was sneaking around and seducing his woman!
If he hadn't reached out to Leng Qingyue, he might have never even known about it!
He would've been humiliated—cuckolded in both of his lives!
"I'm also a reborn protagonist! And yet, I'm about to get cheated on?! What kind of joke is this?!"
Mo Bai: Has he done anything to you yet?
Qingyue: Not yet! I'm not that easy to fool.
Mo Bai: Good.
Qingyue: But who knows about the future?
After the chat ended, Lu Mobai sat still, seething.
"I left to prepare for my revenge on Lin Beifan, and this is what I get?"
"Zhao Tian, you think you're clever, huh? You take me for a fool?"
"You're worse than Lin Beifan!"
"You dare mess with my woman?"
His hands trembled with anger before suddenly relaxing. A sly smirk crept onto his lips.
"I may not be able to deal with you yet… but I can definitely ruin you!"
Lu Mobai turned on his computer. His fingers flew across the keyboard.
A new novel began to take shape.
Title: The City's Son-in-Law, The Dragon King
Synopsis: He was once the sole heir of a hidden superpower family! He was once the mighty Dragon King, feared across the world! A man who could command empires with a snap of his fingers!
But now… he's nothing but a useless live-in son-in-law, washing his wife's feet…
Chapter 1: The Three-Year Deadline Arrives!
"Trash! From today onwards, you are expelled from the Li family!"
"Escort the Dragon King—"
"How dare you humiliate the Dragon King?!"
"Dragon King? Hah! He's just a useless son-in-law in our Li family!"
"The three-year deadline has come. My lord, your subordinates beg you to reclaim your throne!"
(Insert crooked smirk Dragon King meme here)
A new novel was born!
The opening was filled with face-slapping and melodrama—enough to captivate countless readers.
But was Lu Mobai writing this novel for the audience?
No.
As he continued typing, his grin widened.
"You want to rise as the Dragon King? I'll make you a dead dragon! I'll carve your name onto the pillar of shame forever!"
