The commotion drew some curious servers over, but they were thoroughly admonished.

"What are you looking at? Go get your manager here!"

Seeing Justin's fiery temper, Mason Hicks also sprang into action and ordered his son to fetch the hotel manager.

Before the manager could speak upon arrival, something struck his face, making it burn painfully. Yet before he could erupt, he saw it was a membership card.

Moreover, it was the hotel's top VIP card that only the owner could issue. Someone holding this card had to be the owner's friend or other esteemed figure. He couldn't afford to offend someone like that, so swallowed his anger even if simmering inside.

The manager beamed ingratiatingly as he scurried to Justin's side and looked up at his face.

"Turns out it's Mr. Wilson! What a rare guest! My men were remiss in not informing me of your arrival and allowed you to encounter this vexing matter. Rest assured, I will investigate and handle it at once to your satisfaction."

    Justin wasn't sure what use this could be. His dad still worked their modest family farm, which was enough for their needs. What was he supposed to do, leave this thing collecting dust in the System warehouse?"New System Mission: Master must raise intimacy with Mia to 1000 within the next 24 hours. Success will unlock unlimited peach blossom luck. Failure will result in immediate loss of junior brother, making Master the number one eunuch of the modern age.""Friendly reminder: time is precious, Master. Do your best!"Hearing this mission, Justin nearly fell out of bed in shock.This damn System was getting ruthless! Raising intimacy to 1000 in a day, equivalent to lifelong confidantes? Their current intimacy was a pitiful 100! Was this a joke?"Damn you System, you've become downright evil. Just you wait, one day I'll drag you out and stomp your face in with my size 42 shoe!""Apologies, but the System does not have a physical form yet. Even if Master wants revenge, there is no face

    The redhead nearly choked in apoplectic fury. He had intended to seduce a beauty, only to be humiliated by this damn brat instead. As if the unwarranted slap wasn't insult enough! This could not stand."Insolent whelp! You'll pay for this. Get him, boys! Beat him half to death, then drag his ass over so I can smash that smart mouth myself. The rest of you clear out. The lady and I need to have a talk," the redhead barked with a lecherous leer, while his lackeys began closing in on Justin, cracking knuckles in anticipation.The other patrons hurriedly grabbed their belongings and left, not wanting to get caught in the crossfire between these reckless punks. Best to avoid any accidental injuries. Let the fools knock their teeth out if they wanted.After the restaurant emptied, the panicked owner emerged, desperately trying to defuse the situation.

    "Alright, Mr. Wilson, that's quite enough teasing him. We're trying to have a meal here. If you make a bloody mess, it'll ruin my appetite," Mia finally interjected, unable to bear watching any longer.Upon the lady's words, Justin naturally did not want to displease her. He gave the red-haired man one last kick in the behind, knocking him to the ground."Get lost! Consider yourself lucky today. If not for this kind lady speaking up, you wouldn't have walked out of here in one piece. I don't want to see you right now. Make yourself scarce as fast as you can. Take one second too long and I'll break your legs," Justin threatened."Yes, yes, thank you for your mercy, sir! Oh dear, I'm so unlucky today," the red-haired man muttered as he scrambled up and fled, gathering his lackeys cowering in the corner. He immediately began hitting them in frustration, taking out his anger from the beating he just received."Ow ow ow! Boss, stop hitting us!" they cried."Stop hitting you? Fuck! You all

    "This won't do, Village Chief. I'm afraid you are growing senile. This land clearly belongs to my family cemetery. To sell it to outsiders without permission is equivalent to selling my ancestral tombs! This is unacceptable. I won't agree no matter what you say," Mia's expression darkened upon hearing this. He had taken a liking to this piece of land, but did not expect it to be suddenly claimed as a graveyard. Whether this was true or not, the present commotion was undesirable."Doggy, what nonsense are you spewing? Your family tombs are clearly located at the front of the village. Why are you kicking up a fuss here at the back? This is collective land owned by the village! Besides, who said I was selling this land? I'm merely renting it out to bring some income to our village. What is your intention by blocking this deal? Do you not wish our lives to improve?"Doggy had barely opened his mouth to retort when the shrewish woman beside him suddenly screeched, "Injustice!

    The influx of Force indeed improved the elder's condition somewhat. His breathing grew steady while his spirits and complexion both perked up noticeably.This astonished the Village Chief. "Good heavens! What sorcery is this? How could the elder's condition improve so dramatically just from you grasping his hand? Could you be a healer? If so, please save this poor old man! He has suffered his whole life without joy. The blame truly lies with that unfilial Doggy. If I had a son who disrespected his father so, I would have beaten him to death long ago!"The Village Chief spoke fervently, though his expression turned aggrieved when mentioning Doggy Campbell and his wife, clearly sympathizing with the elder's plight.In truth, Doggy Campbell had been quite dutiful originally. Only after marrying that shrew did his personality drastically change, deferring to his wife in all matters. He abandoned his father in the village without care, barely visiting once a year. The elder's sole caregive

    Justin patted Noah's shoulder and headed out, only to spot two unwelcome faces in the yard - Doggy Campbell and his wife, limping back arm in arm."Well now, you've barged into my home indeed! I could charge you with trespassing you know.""Your home? This wreck with the leaky roof and drafty walls? Judging from your fine clothes, you don't seem to live in such conditions. I'd say you've left your conscience here instead. So tell me, did you return today for the house or your conscience?""Enough nonsense, I've no time to chatter with you. You beat us earlier and I've yet to settle scores. Let me warn you, I have connections, ever heard of Red-Haired? He's my boss and I've called him already. He'll be here soon to deal with you. Just wait for your death!"The villagers shook their heads resentfully at Doggy Campbell's audacity. The scoundrel had ties with hoodlums on top of his unfilial behavior - truly an inauspicious son prolonging his father's misfortune.But Justin showed no appre

    Doggy was petrified a moment ago, but now he was struck dumb. Good heavens, manna was falling from heaven! His nagging, abusive wife meant nothing compared to $100,000. He'd long wanted to put her in her place and divorce her sorry arse. But without her family's money, Doggy didn't dare leave her until now. What brilliant fortune! Not only could he escape this plight, but earn a fortune doing it! It was perfect.If only his wife's face looked so bright."Doggy Campbell, don't you dare! If you lay a hand on me today, I'll...I'll..."But before she could finish, a loud slap met her cheek. Her own husband, Doggy Campbell, the man she thought didn't have the guts, had struck her.And he wasn't done. Doggy launched into a tirade of curses."Screw you, you old hag! Still daring to boss me around? You know I've despised you for ages! If not for your family's measly money, I would've divorced your fat, ugly mug long ago. I can't even sleep with the lights off, afraid I'll wake up to your grot

    As he spoke, Doggy grabbed Noah's arm eagerly, only for Noah to shake him off in disgust."So you think of us now? Let me ask you, when Father was deathly ill and I called for you to come, what did you say? No time, let the old fool die, one less burden when he's gone. Just let me know so I can buy his coffin.And when we were starving and I borrowed $100 from you, how did you respond? That I was an outsider and a cripple unworthy of this family, expecting handouts from you? You even had me thrown out, remember?And now you speak of affection and care? After all you've done, what reason have I to speak for you?But you're still Father's son, so I won't berate you further. Just know there's no place for you here anymore. I will care for Father, as his true son, no matter his condition. I won't abandon him like you."After finishing up in the village, Justin didn't leave right away. Instead, he went back to the chosen site for the raw material plantation and sectioned off about half a s

    Soon after ingesting it, the old man coughed and retched up a pool of black blood, gradually regaining clarity. When he lifted his gaze to see his eldest before him, he trembled in excitement, hands fumbling to caress Justin's face."My boy, you've come back! Where have you been all this time? Do you know what chaos ensued in the family during your absence?""Old master, please calm yourself. I'm not your son. Listen as I explain everything."With that, they helped the old man out of his coffin and into an armchair. The same confusion swirled in everyone's minds. Justin then removed his disguise, reverting to his original appearance, and carefully reiterated the events leading up to this moment. Though incredulous at first, the fantastic tale made sense upon reflection.The old man too accepted this was not his real firstborn, but rejoiced at his second son's return. The two siblings knelt before their father, weeping uncontrollably like three-year-olds. The old man beamed with gran

    Naturally the pretender had no knowledge of this, so he pondered briefly before replying."I believe it was the left foot.""Wrong. I wasn't actually bitten because Mother saved me in time, though she gashed her left arm in the process. You didn't know about that incident, did you?" "I'm sure the esteemed guests here remember the day my mother's arm was bleeding profusely when I was seven. Uncle, I recall you drove her to get treated at the hospital. Am I right?""Yes, yes, I remember now. The mistress did injure her arm back then, and I personally took her to the hospital. She specifically instructed me not to inform anyone else, to avoid worry. There's no mistake, he is the young master, the true heir.""Hmph, you think such hearsay can prove I'm fake? I could just as well say you bribed the uncle to deceive everyone. Nobody else witnessed that old incident anyway, so you can make up whatever story you want.""Still unconvinced? Then I'll reveal one more fact known only to my clos

    "I have just the thing." Zoey fished out a USB drive containing a song sung by her elder brother. His rich, magnetic voice was as pleasing as his looks, outclassing many professional singers. "System, can you modify my voice? Use his as a template and get to 80% similarity.""Master can purchase the Voice Mimicry skill for 100,000 points. With it, you can imitate anyone's voice to 99% accuracy."Justin was intrigued, though the skill's price gave him pause. But with his endless fortune of points, the cost was trivial.After purchasing, vocal techniques instantly filled his mind. He softly hummed along to the recording, astonishing the siblings. With just a line, his cadence and tone perfectly matched their brother's. Between looks and voice, even the real deal before them wouldn't be distinguishable from this imitation."Well, can I pass?""More than pass! Let me get you one of brother's outfits too, then we can head for the estate and expose that fraud!"Now garbed in Miles' clothi

    Justin paid no mind to his friends' envious gazes as he followed the woman inside and took a seat. She sashayed over, hips swaying, and poured him a cup of tea. Her alluring figure and bewitching aura stirred desires within Justin. He couldn't help it - she was too tempting. Though Justin had his share of women, they were innocent girls, no match for the mature allure of this femme fatale. If not for knowing she spelled trouble, he would have made her part of his harem. A beauty like her didn't deserve to be wasted on others.While he was lost in thought, the woman slinked back over with a folder in hand. She took out some photos and passed them to Justin.Seeing the man in the photos, Justin shot up in shock, hands trembling. He quickly calmed himself to avoid losing face. But his astonishment was understandable.The man looked identical to him, like two peas in a pod - just more mature with a refined, gentlemanly bearing. Even in the simple photos, he exuded a carefree elegance.

    Rose's gaze never left Justin. As she watched, his image seemed to overlay and merge with that of a man in his thirties from her memories - her brother, who had disappeared over ten years ago. She had come to this city to search for him. But despite her efforts, there had been no trace. Finding someone who bore such an uncanny resemblance sparked new hope within her. "Go check his background thoroughly. Find out his connection to my brother. The drink is his tonight." At Rose's order, a man behind her swiftly departed. Rose then headed up to the stage and cut the deafening music. Justin's dancing slowed to a stop as all eyes turned to the elegant woman, curious what exquisite concoction she would produce tonight.Rose surveyed the array of bottles before her. She selected a bottle of Spirytus Rektyfikowany - pure grain alcohol known as "life water", the strongest vodka in the world. This she mixed with some fruit juices in casual pours before picking up the glass and descending fr

    "Oh, it's just a simple little trick, that's all. But now this is a true Blood-Sweat Horse, the finest of steeds. I've decided to keep him for myself. In a couple days at my wedding, I'll ride him down the streets in my finest wedding clothes, with camera crews from my two livestreaming companies recording everything. I want the whole country, nay, the whole world to see my spectacular wedding!""Holy hell, that's brilliant! Why didn't I think of that? Riding a legendary steed in the wedding parade - that's big face for sure! Hey, I'm taking back my decision to sell him. You just name your price, anything, and the horse is yours. Do we have a deal?""Adrian Webb, you must be dreaming. Even your toes can think well enough to know that's never going to happen. First you insult the poor beast, then when he turns into a marvel, you want to claim him? Have you no shame?"Adrian was left speechless by Justin's rebuke. In the end he had no choice but to give up.

    Adrian panicked; the money was trivial, but he dreaded the horse suddenly collapsing, shaming him badly, or throwing him off."Run properly, beast! Or I'll really whip you!" He lashed its hindquarters a few times. The horse neighed painfully but sped up again.Seeing the speed return, Adrian finally relaxed. Half the track remained. He just wanted the horse to finish the rest quickly, no more mishaps. Otherwise today would be terribly embarrassing. "Hey, this won't do! I've caught up to you, will overtake you soon! I said your horse was no good!""Nonsense, he just ate something disagreeable, needs to digest it. He'll run properly again immediately, heh, you've certainly lost today!" "I give up, even now you're still stubborn. Fine, if you insist on going on, then bet on! Just don't blame me later if you get tossed off and hurt your butt or face."Justin continued controlling his old steed to speed up. It ran faster and faster, gaining momentum ceaselessly. Its aura was like the ki

I really did import this Sweatblood from overseas, and had experts examine it too. They said it's extremely healthy, the most robust horse in my stable! How could it be fake, let alone injured? Don't you trust me? I've never made a mistake before, and certainly never been negligent working for you. Please don't be fooled by ill-intentioned people!""Oh? So you're saying I'm an ill-intentioned villain?" "I wouldn't dare, you're Mr. Webb's friend, I wouldn't offend you. But I must say, I've always worked in good conscience, never doing such swindling. This horse is truly healthy. If you insist it's sick, I can't do anything about it.""Seems you still don't believe me. Then let's bet on it. I'll pick a horse I deem good, we'll race your horse against mine, and the result will show if I'm speaking nonsense or not!"Justin spread his hands, looki

    Since Adam and the others rarely came to Metropolis Central, Justin wanted to show them around properly. At this time, Adrian Webb happened to rush over. Seeing the four guys, he decided to bring them out for fun.What? Why would Adrian Webb show up here? Think about it, with his personality, being cooped up at home for a month would make him mildew. He had sneaked out today after bribing his dad, and with Lucas Webb whispering into his ear, Kennedy wouldn't punish him."Hahaha, never thought I'd become friends with Adrian Webb one day. If word of this got out, I could brag about it for life!""Hahaha, the brothers flatter me. I'm friends with Justin, and you all are Justin's brothers, so naturally we're friends too. We're kindred spirits - we should hang out more in the future. Come, brothers, I'll bring you to experience something novel." With a wave of his hand, Adrian brought the four to a racecourse in the suburbs. All kinds of peerless horses could be found here, don't worry,
