Stealing Lou Xiao'e Away, I’m Thriving in the Siheyuan

【Decisive and Ruthless】+【System】Chen Ping'an leaves the army and takes up a civilian post, bringing with him the iron-fisted resolve forged in the flames of war. He moves into Love in the Courtyard and unexpectedly awakens the Strange Ways Mystery Box System! On his very first day in the courtyard, he runs into a meeting of all the residents. The hypocrite Yi Zhonghai is using moral blackmail to pressure everyone into donating to the Jia family, while Silly Zhu threatens them with violence. Chen Ping'an sneers inwardly and opens his beginner's mystery box, instantly acquiring the max-level skill 【Silver Tongue】 and the peerless skill 【Nimble Hands】! He tears into Yi Zhonghai in front of everyone, shattering his moral facade, exposes Qin Huairu's virtuous act, and even turns the tables by emptying Silly Zhu's stash of public canteen lunchboxes! Faced with a courtyard full of scheming beasts, Chen Ping'an has one rule: never forgive, and fight fire with fire! Bang Geng tries to steal something? Chen Ping'an sets a reverse trap and sends the courtyard's “Saint of Thieves” to prison for good! Silly Zhu throws his weight around at the factory? Chen Ping'an shows off his banquet-catering skills, snatches the factory director's reception banquet right from under his nose, and smashes Silly Zhu's iron rice bowl! At the steel mill, his unorthodox publicity stunts drive his direct superior to the brink of madness, yet unexpectedly earn him the admiration of a senior leader in the Ministry of Industry, sending him steadily up the ranks. In his spare time, he even gets ahead of everyone and wins the heart of the stunning heiress Lou Xiao'e. The two build their careers together in this vibrant era, showering everyone with public displays of affection. This time, Chen Ping'an has only one goal: send every last beast to prison and keep the thrills coming, with no more swallowing his anger!
