Dragon Raja: The Divine Man Lu Mingfei

Chapter 10 Your Family is in My Hands

In the Regent Hotel, in a luxury suite just one floor below the Presidential Suite of Lu Mingfei, twilight gently enveloped the corners of the room like a thin veil.

A girl with long, dark red hair was sitting in front of a computer, wrapped in a large white bathrobe, her fingers flying across the keyboard as if she were chatting with someone.

"How are our S-class freshmen?" The person with the ID "Sonic" typed a line in the chat box, with a hint of scrutiny in their tone.

"Not so good, S-rank qualities need improvement." The girl with dark red hair tapped her fingers lightly on the keyboard, replying crisply and neatly, her words revealing a hint of indifference.

"What do you mean?" Sonic asked, puzzled.

"I'll send you a screenshot of the chat history, and you'll understand after you see it."

The girl had just logged into QQ when an unread message notification popped up in the lower right corner of the screen. She raised an eyebrow and glanced at the sender—it was the S-class freshman she had teamed up with during the day to play games, and the one she had ultimately defeated with the help of the academy's AI.

Recalling the other person's furious accusations of cheating, a playful smile curved the girl's lips. She thought to herself, "This is probably just another one of those threats." But when she opened the chat window, she found only a single message, the content of which completely surprised her—

Ming Shen: "Your family is in my hands. If you don't want them to die, video call me and kneel down to apologize for cheating."

Nono stared at the text on the screen, her fingertips pausing on the keyboard, before replying with a puzzled "???".

Immediately afterwards, she typed another line: "307 Jichun Road, I suggest you go there and take a look now."

Myojin: "Hmm? What place is that?"

Nono's reply was laced with undisguised sarcasm: "It's a specialized medical institution that treats patients with severe mental disorders who have impaired social functioning; in short, a mental hospital."

Myojin: "You don't believe me? You'll regret it!"

After the other person finished speaking, there was no further communication. The red-haired girl had no intention of pursuing the matter further. She took a screenshot of the chat page, saved it, and sent it to the person with the ID "Sonic".

After a brief silence, Sonic replied:

"It seems that our S-class student may indeed have some mental issues, but that's not important. When he enrolls, the academy will naturally send the most authoritative psychiatric professor to provide him with psychological counseling. As for Nono, your task is simply to find a way to get him to agree to join our student council."

"I'm telling you, the eldest son of the prestigious Gattuso family, your S-level resume for the first half of your life is that of a typical loser. You have no money and no background. If you just throw some money at him, wouldn't he be eager to come over? Is it really necessary for me to go through all this trouble?" The red-haired girl slammed her fingertips heavily on the keyboard, the crisp tapping sound echoing in the room. It was clear that she was in a bad mood.

"Hmm, what you said makes sense, but I heard that S-Class and Chu Zihang are from the same school. It's hard to guarantee that Chu Zihang won't make contact with him first. After thinking it over, I still need to trouble you to make the first contact, so that Chu Zihang doesn't beat you to it," Sonic replied.

"Alright, I'll try my best. But if he's completely unresponsive, don't blame me." Nono finished speaking and, without waiting for "Sonic's" reply, swiftly tapped the exit button.

She turned around, her gaze drifting beyond the window towards the distance. The orange-red sunset was slowly sinking, casting its last golden rays upon her face, outlining her delicate jawline and giving her pale skin a warm glow.

The sunset on the horizon was like a brocade set ablaze, layers of pink, purple, and orange blending together, perfectly reflected in her deep brown pupils. She sat there quietly, her eyelashes casting soft shadows beneath her eyes, and no one could guess what she was plotting behind that sunset.

......

Lu Mingfei was engrossed in a StarCraft battle at the moment, unaware that the cheater from before was right downstairs from him, separated only by a wall. Lu Mingze's information to him didn't mention this, but even if it had, Lu Mingfei probably wouldn't have paid it any mind.

It wasn't that he lacked the ability to personally find the other party. With his strength, if he really wanted to find her, there were countless ways to accurately locate her address. But he was too lazy to do so. Anyway, the other party's whole family was now in his hands, so he treated it as a game and played around with her.

He had just deliberately told Nuonuo, "Your whole family is in my hands," but she thought he was talking nonsense. Since that was the case, Lu Mingfei decided to let things play out for a while, until she realized something was wrong and that what he said was true. Then he would see how she would react—would she panic or become furious? Just thinking about it made him think it would be more interesting than playing a video game.

Lu Mingfei did not take the lives of the Chen family members, but merely banished them to a void devoid of time. It was a peculiar dimension, without the alternation of day and night, without the passage of years. Ordinary people would not die in it, but would fall into an eternal state of unconsciousness—their bodies would be frozen in amber, neither aging nor decaying, forever remaining in the state they were in when they were banished.

Lu Mingfei could bring these people back to the real world at any time if he wanted to, but there was a condition: Nuonuo, who had cheated in the game and won against him, had to apologize to him first, and the apology had to be until he was satisfied.

Lu Mingfei considered himself a good person and wouldn't slaughter an entire family for a minor matter like cheating in a game. Throwing the person into the void for a few days would be a minor punishment.

As for what would become of the Chen family's vast fortune, Lu Mingfei didn't care at all. If the Chen family members didn't know their place and asked about it, Master Lu would tell them: money is just an external thing. As long as a person is alive, that's more important than anything else—of course, the premise is that he has to be appeased first.

As Lu Mingfei destroyed the opponent's base again, the QQ icon in the lower right corner of the screen suddenly started flashing, indicating a new message. Lu Mingfei clicked on it and saw a line of text pop up in the chat box:

"Mingfei, are you going to the graduation party?"

The person who sent the message had a profile picture of a girl wearing a baseball cap, and the nickname was Chen Wenwen.

This name was once a ray of light in Lu Mingfei's bleak youth, the girl he cherished in his heart when he was young. But time has long since turned the page, the Lu Mingfei of the past is long gone, and now he is completely unfamiliar with this name, not taking this news seriously at all.

He was about to type "not going" when his fingertips suddenly stopped, as if he had suddenly thought of something. After a moment's thought, he typed a few words:

"What kind of gathering? Is Zhao Menghua going?"

After a long while, the other side finally replied:

"It's just the graduation party being discussed in the literary community, Mingfei, didn't you see the group chat? And Mingfei, why are you concerned about whether Zhao Menghua is going or not?"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "What kind of stupid group chat is this? Master Lu is busy conquering the world in StarCraft, how could he have time to care about your stupid literary society?"

But in order to understand the details and for what he was going to do next, Lu Mingfei still clicked into the literary community group chat and looked through the previous conversations.

After quickly glancing through the information, Lu Mingfei understood the whole story. In short, Chen Wenwen, thinking that everyone was about to graduate, suggested that all members of the literary society have a gathering. Originally, they planned to have a meal together, but "Little Fairy" Su Xiaoqiang said that she was on a diet, so the meal was changed to going to the movie theater.

After confirming that Zhao Menghua would also be going, Lu Mingfei readily gave his reply:

"go."

The reason Lu Mingfei repeatedly mentioned Zhao Menghua was not because he had homosexual tendencies, but because he remembered that Zhao Menghua used to find various ways to embarrass him. Master Lu was a vengeful person, and he took this opportunity to settle accounts with Zhao Menghua.

"Okay, the party is next weekend. Mingfei, let's go buy the tickets together on Saturday."

Lu Mingfei instantly understood everything. No wonder Chen Wenwen had specifically asked him if he was going to the party; she wanted him to run errands.

He snorted coldly and quickly typed a reply:

"I'm busy, you should find someone else."

Without waiting for Chen Wenwen's reply, he switched QQ to offline mode and went back to StarCraft to dominate the battlefield.
