Just After I Retired, the Ice-Cold Empress Begged Me to Keep Her

Xu An endured nine lifetimes of villain plots and finally received his retirement reward from the System.

He had planned to open a quiet little cafe and enjoy a carefree life of tea, cats, and doing nothing.

But who could have imagined that the heroines from all nine of his past lives would show up at his door with their memories intact!

The once unattainable, trillion-yuan ice queen of a CEO tied on an apron, just to ask him to make her a bowl of egg fried rice;

The seemingly delicate campus beauty who ruled the dark web turned into a yandere, taking control of the city's surveillance cameras to drive away every scheming woman who tried to get close to him;

The stunningly beautiful queen of entertainment and the heiress of an ancient martial arts family nearly came to blows in the kitchen as they fought over the cafe's “dishwasher” job...

Even more absurdly, a cup of coffee Xu An casually brewed left powerful figures from every walk of life reaching sudden enlightenment, crying and begging to become his disciples. A wooden carving he casually whittled sold for an astronomical price at auction to the world's richest man!

The original novel's male protagonist, who had been preparing to descend the mountain in a blaze of glory, saw the stunning heroines and powerful figures serving tea and bowing obsequiously in Xu An's cafe. His Dao heart shattered on the spot, and he spat blood as he cried:

“What is going on?! Who's supposed to be the chosen protagonist here?!”

Watching the wealthy beauties, each one top-tier, fight over him with jealous glares in his cafe every day, Xu An sighed helplessly:

“I'm really not some peerless master. I'm just an ordinary cafe owner.”
