Me, A Villain! Is It So Wrong To Live off The Heroines? - Chapter 9

Chapter 009: What’s Yours Is Mine, and What’s Mine Is Still Mine!

The atmosphere in the room fell into a brief silence.

Just as Qin Yu seemed ready to mock him again, Su Mingxuan turned his head and calmly said, “Brother Qin, you seem to hold quite the grudge against me?”

“No,” Qin Yu denied, “I just can’t stand by while Shuishui gets taken advantage of.”

Su Mingxuan gave a faint smile. “No need to get emotional. I merely stated my terms. If the deal doesn’t go through, so be it. Besides… for the investment I’m offering, even taking 70% of the shares feels like too little.” He then turned toward An Mushui with a smile.

“Young Master Su, you mean…?” A hint of hope returned to An Mushui’s eyes.

“I plan to fully support your research on new-energy vehicles. To expand development, I’ll make an initial investment of twenty billion. Follow-up funding will exceed one hundred billion. With such a massive investment, isn’t 70% a fair deal?” Su Mingxuan said with a calm smile.

An Mushui: “!!”

Jiang Ting: “!!!”

Qin Yu: “…”

He has that kind of money?

Qin Yu stared at Su Mingxuan with undisguised jealousy.

“Young Master Su, are you… serious?” An Mushui seemed shocked, even her tone became hesitant.

“What? You don’t think I can afford it?” Su Mingxuan arched a brow with a beautiful curve of a smile.

That unmatched face, paired with that expression, was enough to daze Jiang Ting and the secretary.

Even An Mushui’s heart skipped a beat.

“No, it’s not that,” she said quickly, flustered and waving her hands. Gone was the calm image of a cold and elegant CEO. “I’m just afraid I’ll mess things up and let you down. Maybe… you shouldn’t invest so much?”

A hundred-billion-level investment—this was a massive amount even by global conglomerate standards.

She had originally hoped for a few dozen billion at most. She never imagined Young Master Su would be willing to throw so much money in with her.

R&D was a money pit, especially in the energy sector. Without mature technology, how could you generate returns?

“It’s fine,” Su Mingxuan said with a light smile. His voice took on a rare seriousness. “My company is transitioning into a new direction. Investing here is part of that change. I’ll give you three years. No matter what, you must get the company on track. That’s doable, right?”

An Mushui looked at him blankly for a moment, then nodded firmly. “Rest assured, Young Master Su. I’ll do everything I can.”

With this investment, paired with her own capabilities, An Mushui firmly believed the future would be bright.

“Good.” Su Mingxuan nodded, then pointed toward Jiang Ting. “This is my assistant. You two should exchange contact information. She’ll handle the contract and investment details with you.”

At his instruction, Jiang Ting stood up and said, “President An, I’m Jiang Ting.”

Two goddess-level women shook hands, then exchanged numbers.

On the side, Qin Yu watched with increasing discomfort.

They were already finalizing the deal?

If this went on, not only would Su Mingxuan become an undeniable romantic rival, but his own metaphorical “green hat” might start glowing soon.

This was supposed to be his fiancée. How could she be taken by someone else?

And judging from the way Shuishui was looking at that young master…

She clearly had a bit of a crush on him. And that kind of crush… was deadly.

For someone like Su Mingxuan, even the smallest trick might be enough to make her fall right into his arms.

Qin Yu couldn’t let things develop any further, but at this point, he couldn’t even get a word in. If he kept pushing, she might just resent him more.

Qin Yu shot a resentful glance at Su Mingxuan, silently wondering… Why is this guy different from the script?

According to every cliché, shouldn’t this rich young master show his pervy side in two lines, then try to use power or money to pressure Shuishui?

Then he, the underdog hero, would swoop in and prove his worth, changing her opinion.

Why wasn’t this guy following the plot?

—

【 Ding! Because the host invested in An Mushui’s company and seized the empire that originally belonged to Qin Yu, 500,000 points of Qin Yu’s luck have been plundered. Reward: 500,000 Talent Upgrade Points. 】

【 Ding! Because the host plundered over 10% of Qin Yu’s luck, a portion of his abilities has been copied to the host. Copying in progress… Copy complete. Congratulations, host has acquired: Divine Medicine Yin-Yang Scripture, Volume One. 】

Divine Medicine Yin-Yang Scripture: A core internal method passed down through generations of Divine Medicine Valley. Volume One enhances vitality, harmonizes yin and yang, and extends lifespan. Can be cultivated independently, but requires abstinence from sexual activity and cultivation through one’s own essence and energy.

Alternatively, it can be cultivated jointly with a loved one. This dual-cultivation method emphasizes the unity of yin and yang and harmony with heaven and earth. The effects can be several times greater than solo cultivation. Long-term use may even preserve youthful appearance indefinitely.

Su Mingxuan: “…”

You’re telling me just by investing in one company, I’ve plundered this much of Qin Yu’s luck? That must mean… this company plays a critical role in Qin Yu’s future. Maybe it’s even one of his most important stepping stones.

And now he’d just taken it with barely any effort?

For some reason, Su Mingxuan couldn’t stop himself from smiling.

What surprised him even more was that once he plundered more than 10% of Qin Yu’s luck, he actually started copying the guy’s abilities?

So what happens at 20%? Or 50%? Or even 100%?

Would he end up with all their abilities?

What’s yours is mine. And what’s mine… is still mine?

Holy shit.

Being able to directly steal the abilities of a Child of Fate?

Now that was truly broken.
