Gu Chen transmigrated into a world where multiple wish-fulfillment novels had merged, becoming the heir to Jinghai City's leading tycoon.
He knew the story's destined villain would sooner or later be trampled underfoot by the chosen sons of fortune, left with a ruined family and nothing else.
So, having finally seen the light, Gu Chen decided to give up, keep his head down, trust in science, and become a law-abiding citizen!
From the start, his ice-cold fiancée brought a mountain doctor to their door to break off their engagement. The doctor arrogantly threatened to wipe out the entire Gu family.
Gu Chen remained perfectly calm. He smiled and agreed to end the engagement, while ranting inwardly:
[Break it off! Do it now! This doctor practices without a license and sells unapproved pills. In a few days, he'll be caught in the crackdown on organized crime. Don't drag me into this!]
The icy female CEO, who had been planning to call off the engagement, froze.
A few days later, the doctor was arrested for practicing medicine illegally and having ties to organized crime. The female CEO knocked on Gu Chen's door in the middle of the night, begging him not to break off their engagement.
From then on, the plot went completely off the rails. All the heroines awakened the ability to hear people's inner thoughts, and their whole demeanor changed!
The Smirking Dragon King returns with a hundred thousand soldiers?
Gu Chen: [This is an unlawful armed gathering. I'll call the police and have the counterterrorism unit clean house!]
The assassin heroine: [Young Master Gu is right. I'll hack his offshore financial network right away!]
A reborn tycoon looks down on everyone in arrogant triumph?
Gu Chen: [Insider trading and market manipulation? Watch my trillion-yuan capital drive the market the other way and send you to prison to work a sewing machine!]
The finance world's dream girl: [Young Master Gu, I've already sent the tax bureau evidence of his tax evasion!]
Watching one chosen son of fortune after another get sent to prison or a psychiatric hospital, Gu Chen could only shrug.
“It's a society governed by the rule of law. Who still fights you with luck? I, Gu Chen, only use overwhelming force!”

Well, compared to those Dragon King novels with distorted values, this is much better. I hope the author continues to work hard and keep it up.
So does the protagonist actually know that others can hear his thoughts? And what's the deal with the senior in Chapter 16? What][What][What]
Putting new wine in old bottles, the villains waving the banner of law and leveraging state power is quite novel. Aside from occasional plot inconsistencies, it's not bad.
The book is good, but there aren't enough pages. Keep up the good work, author!
