Fortunately, he had the Heavenly Dao Simulator, which not only gave him foresight but also provided him with rewards each time he activated the simulation. But why were his two wicked little maids reborn? This part was not included in his life simulation. This script is wrong! The system misbehaved me! "These two heartless women have been reborn to seek revenge." "They're plotting how to kill me right in front of me!" Is this polite?
