Chapter 3111: After Divorce, Forced into 42 Rounds of Male Rivalry with My Ex-Husband

~6 min read 1,173 words

Ma Qi walked in the lead, bringing his personal guard team through several doors requiring identity verification, stopped before the last door, glanced at Jin Chen and Chenshu as if confirming they were ready, then lifted his leg and kicked the door open.

Inside was a spacious front hall, arranged like a reception room combined with a command center; in the exact center of the room stood a tall man nearly two meters high, his thick arms covered in scars, his hair cut very short, looking like a bear beast that could erupt in violence at any moment—Ma Qi's sworn brother, Modun.

Behind Modun, Chi Mu's clothes were somewhat disheveled; upon seeing Jin Chen and Chenshu behind Ma Qi, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his fingers unconsciously gripped the chair's armrests.

How did they find us so quickly!

Jin Chen glanced at Chi Mu, then at Modun blocking him, turned his head to Ma Qi and muttered, "I told you they were lovers."

Ma Qi said sorrowfully, "It's my purity."

Modun stared coldly, his voice low and hoarse, "You're the ones who bullied Mumu? And you still dare to show up yourself! What, you expect me, this good brother, to help you?"

Chenshu took a half-step forward, preparing to quickly defeat this type of opponent who relies on brute strength and physique to gain the upper hand, but his wrist was seized by Jin Chen.

"Wait thirty seconds." Jin Chen said.

Chenshu didn't understand why, but he stopped his action and nodded, "Okay."

Jin Chen thought to 999: 【Trigger the audit check. Seeing this situation, not engaging in a male rivalry would be hard to justify.】

Sure enough, moments later the audit check was triggered, a compulsory plot directive was implanted, and he had to follow the storyline of competing for the myriad admirers, engaging in a male rivalry with Modun.

Jin Chen curled his lip, "That's enough."

Modun also summoned people.

At his command, chaotic footsteps sounded in the hallway, fully armed bodyguards surged in and blocked the entrance tightly.

The huge front hall instantly descended into chaos: Ma Qi's personal guards and Modun's bodyguard team clashed, fighting for dominion over the base; Blake led his security squad trying to suppress those who attacked Jin Chen; Chenshu and Modun became entangled, two tall men exchanging swift, deadly blows in the confined space.

And Jin Chen… he turned around, taking advantage of the confusion, and only grabbed Chi Mu to beat him.

Chi Mu's recently healed body hadn't yet absorbed enough Fortune Value; facing Jin Chen's attack, he was almost powerless to retaliate.

He tried to use the system to resist, but the system's response speed had noticeably slowed, as if under some pressure. He wanted to hide behind Modun, but Modun was entangled by Chenshu and couldn't split his attention to help him.

Whenever the audit check fluctuated, Jin Chen seized the moment to punch Modun, making it look like he had accidentally injured the myriad admirers in the scuffle.

Chi Mu's recently healed body still hadn't absorbed enough Fortune Value, so he could only use the system for limited resistance. He now had no thought of subduing Jin Chen; he only wanted him dead… to completely erase the person who had ruined all his plans.

The Myriad Admirers System had long sensed that Jin Chen in this storyline was dangerous; it detected that the host's vital signs were rapidly declining, Fortune Value reserves were about to run out, yet the character named Jin Chen stood unharmed before it, so it decided to try to forcibly erase him from the plot using a data stream.

Jin Chen felt an invisible force pressing upon him, instinctively stepped back half a pace to steady himself; 999 sensed the opposing system's active attack, finally gaining permission to retaliate, and immediately: 【Operator, I'll now use the senior's secret pouch for you!】

A mighty force surged from deep within Jin Chen's consciousness, forming a dazzling ball of light that shot straight into Chi Mu's forehead.

In a daze, Jin Chen seemed to hear a roar like that of a giant beast, while the Myriad Admirers System felt a devouring data pressure that tore its data stream apart layer by layer and consumed it.

The Audit Mechanism tried to intervene, but vanished upon contacting that force.

A sharp pain shot through Chi Mu's mind; he curled up on the ground, clutching his head, and let out hoarse, anguished cries.

He frantically called out to the system in his mind, but only empty silence replied.

Jin Chen let out an "oh," 【Success?】

999 cheerfully: 【The Myriad Admirers System has disappeared.】

0731 Boss, present! It fulfilled its duty without letting the big boss get hurt! Going back, we won't get beaten!

Jin Chen crouched down, looking at Chi Mu curled on the ground, and said with a smile, "See, I said I'd do it."

Chi Mu lifted his head; those eyes that once always held a pitiful, tender glow now held only fear and disbelief, "You… you took my system…"

Jin Chen lifted Chi Mu from the ground, searched him, and indeed found a Star Core in the inner layer of his side pocket.

"Your move was pretty quick."

Seeing Jin Chen take the Star Core, Chi Mu felt as if his last support had been ripped away; he had lost the system, lost the Star Core, lost all his trump cards and reliance. He struggled to lunge forward to seize it, but his body, weakened without system support, was as frail as paper—Jin Chen's casual push sent him collapsing to the ground, unable to muster the strength to rise.

On the other side, Modun's situation wasn't great either.

He was entangled by Chenshu, unable to split himself to protect Chi Mu.

His fighting style relied on physique and brute force, wide swings; when facing Chenshu, a opponent skilled in both technique and speed, he was almost completely suppressed, finally caught in a flaw, and his resistance ended swiftly and cleanly.

Ma Qi smiled, stepped closer, bent down, and pulled from Modun's corpse's waist pouch the key representing leadership, slipping it into his pocket, eagerly looking at Jin Chen, "Xiao Jin, want to take over the neighboring Medicine Tower as well?"

Jin Chen straightened up, also stowing that Star Core into his spatial backpack, "Yes, but not me."

He tossed the already-unconscious Chi Mu casually to Blake, then hooked Chenshu over, arm looping around his shoulders, bringing him close and kissing his face, "It's you."

Chenshu raised an eyebrow, seemingly pondering the purpose of this arrangement, then something occurred to him, and a flash of realization crossed his gaze.

"Use the armed force of Rust Bone Star to threaten those politicians?"

Jin Chen snapped his fingers, "This is the surprise we're sending them."

He took out a holographic game patch from his pocket, turned it between his fingers, his gaze falling on the unconscious Chi Mu on the floor, and said cheerfully, "And I want to test the game's effect."
