He even posted a rental listing online.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran chuckled. This Ye Qiu really was relentless when it came to attracting pretty female tenants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old apartment building was going to be demolished soon, and instead of waiting for a new one to be built, the guy had gone straight to buying a villa just to keep renting it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You did well,” Wang Haoran praised with a nod. Then he glanced sideways at her and added, “I’ve got another errand for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of errand?” Bu Feiyan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ever started a fire?” Wang Haoran asked, lips curling into a cryptic smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re back. Then I guess I’ll stop playing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she saw Wang Haoran return, her interest in the game disappeared, and she was ready to end the stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he raised a hand to stop her. “Did you get matched with that little chick earlier while streaming?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nope,” she replied, shaking her head. “Didn’t run into him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then keep playing,” he said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sent Jiang Gaoxuan to sabotage Xiao Ye’s livestream, but he hadn’t received any updates—or any rewards—which meant Xiao Ye probably hadn’t started streaming yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Wang Haoran hoped Qin Yunhan would stay on air. That way, Xiao Ye might follow suit and try to draw some of the spotlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I don’t feel like playing anymore,” she said, giving him a coy glance. “I’d rather talk to you, though…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He understood her meaning in an instant and sat down beside her with a smile. “Go ahead and play. It won’t interfere with anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Huh?” Qin Yunhan blinked in confusion, then shot him a strange look. She then proceeded to turn off her stream’s microphone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t exactly a pro gamer. Her gameplay didn’t require much commentary, and nobody would notice if she happened to get a little distracted during a match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She finished her current game with some effort, then queued up for another match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A notification popped into Wang Haoran’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. Host has manipulated events behind the scenes to disrupt protagonist Xiao Ye’s livestream. Gained 800 Villain Points. Xiao Ye’s Protagonist Halo -40. Host’s Villain Halo +40.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran smirked to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looked like Xiao Ye indeed started streaming again after seeing Qin Yunhan online—but Jiang Gaoxuan must’ve gotten to him. Maybe he cut the guy’s internet. Maybe he pretended to be a ghost. Who knew?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frankly, Wang Haoran didn’t care how it was done. His attention was wholly focused on the woman beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late that night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yunhan lay in bed, fast asleep, her body utterly exhausted. Yet her skin had turned cold as ice. A fine layer of frost formed along her lips and eyelashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran jolted upright, startled, and quickly channeled Internal Energy to try and dispel the mysterious chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even touching her skin, he felt a bone-deep cold invade his body, making him shiver uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sensation was so intense, even his hundred-year accumulation of Internal Energy couldn’t resist it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panic surged within him. He nearly contacted the Miracle Doctor, Bian Suwen, who was staying just a few hundred meters away in another villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could even reach out, Qin Yunhan’s body warmed. Her breathing steadied, soft and even, as if nothing had ever happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran’s expression twisted into something complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole scene reeked of a soap-opera twist. This didn’t feel like an illness at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most likely… Qin Yunhan possessed a unique innate constitution—one suited for cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Wang Haoran was certain that she had a cultivation aptitude. And not just any aptitude, but one extraordinary enough to make Feng Xuansu drop everything and drag her to Fengxi Sect for training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a faint glow flickered through the window. In the distance, flames lit up the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. Host’s covert manipulation has caused Ye Qiu’s newly purchased property to catch fire, altering the story’s progression. Gained 900 Villain Points. Ye Qiu’s Protagonist Halo -45. Host’s Villain Halo +45.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. Congratulations, Host. Your Villain Halo has surpassed the 7000 milestone. Reward is being calculated. Please wait.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first alert was expected. The second brought a wave of pleasant surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he received rewards for passing the 4000 and 5000 thresholds. But nothing came when he hit 6000. He assumed the system stopped issuing rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently not. The requirement simply increased. Before, every 1000-point increase granted a prize. Now, it seemed to be every 2000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And judging by the pattern, the gap would only widen with time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding this, Wang Haoran eagerly anticipated the new reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first was the Social Relationship Bond Card, then the Love at First Sight Card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what would it be this time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. Reward for surpassing 7000 Villain Points has been successfully calculated. Congratulations, Host. You have received: “Social Relationship Bond Setting Card.”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as that hopeful curiosity surged in his chest, the system delivered its answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately opened his inventory to check the details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Social Relationship Bond Setting Card (Value: 50,000 Villain Points): Host may establish a pre-existing social bond with a female lead of choice. Available bond types include: Father-Daughter, Mother-Son, Siblings, Master-Disciple, Ex-Girlfriend, or Lost Husband and Wife. Once the bond is set, it will activate after a set duration.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he saw the first two options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ning mentioned Feng Xuansu was just in her early twenties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Father-Daughter? Mother-Son?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran couldn’t help but wonder what would happen if he did choose one of those… just out of morbid curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he’d never actually do it. He wasn’t that brain-damaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After skimming the list again, he selected the most suitable one without hesitation—“Lost Husband and Wife.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. The host has selected to establish a “Lost Husband and Wife” bond with female lead Feng Xuansu. The bond will activate in 2400 hours. Host may wait or spend Villain Points to accelerate activation.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two thousand four hundred hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hundred days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, even vegetables would’ve wilted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Haoran wasn’t about to wait that long. “Accelerate it,” he ordered. “Reduce it to the minimum time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ding. Host has spent 10,000 Villain Points. Bond will activate in 24 hours.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart ached. Ten thousand points—just gone like that, but the pain quickly faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yuntian’s Protagonist Halo was massive. Beating him would yield rich rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those points would come back soon enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Feng Xuansu was a critical figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this new “Lost Husband and Wife” relationship established, dealing with Yan Yuntian would become much easier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on CrimsonScrolls.net\u003C\u002Fp>",1154,"2026-06-10T05:40:46.403Z",1,"novelbin.me","f8d0fbca4fb3c12277472931fe4b452eb37e6483c220ed21c019fb012534d1e3","i-became-the-rich-second-generation-villain-chapter-9","i-became-the-rich-second-generation-villain-chapter-8",428,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-the-rich-second-generation-villain-cover.jpg"]
