“Brother Xu, tonight’s performance was a success.”

In the passenger seat, the assistant flipped through the photos and comments on the social software and turned back to say cheerfully.
Xu Sili slowly put on the seatbelt and looked sideways out the car window.
The fans were still waving their support lights and enthusiastically sending him off.

The slightly pale handsome face revealed a melancholy and gentle look under the blurred lights.
A long time passed before the young man withdrew his gaze and restrained his expression.

“Drive,” he whispered.

“Yes.” The assistant told the driver to drive quickly before lowering his head and replying to messages in a hurry.

Xu Sili glanced at him and leaned back against the seat lazily, taking out his phone to play a game.

Ding dong.

Just then, his phone rang and a message popped up.

[Second Brother]: Have you arrived home?

[Second Brother]: Give me a call when you arrive.

Xu Sili casually replied and switched back to the game interface.
He returned to the suburban villa and took a comfortable shower.
He had just come out of the bathroom when there was a knock on the door.
He walked over and opened the door.

“Third Young Master, your milk.” The servant stood at the door and spoke respectfully.

“Yes, thank you.”

Xu Sili wiped his hair with a towel while taking the milk glass in the other hand.
Then he kicked the door shut with his toes.
He headed back to the sofa and threw himself down on it.
Then he sent a video call request to his second brother.

“Beep—beep—”

There was the sound of ringing as Xu Sili held his cup of milk.
He lowered his head and saw the papers scattered on the coffee table.
Then his original gentle motions suddenly accelerated.
He had just picked up a certain document and thrown it on the ground, dropping a pillow to cover it when the big screen on the wall turned on.

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses appeared on the screen.
His facial features were somewhat similar to Xu Sili.

“Xu Sili!” The moment the video was successfully connected, the man was about to go crazy.
Then he saw Xu Sili’s appearance and couldn’t help pausing.

“Wipe the milk,” he ordered with immense disgust.

Xu Sili glanced at the document on the ground and determined that it wouldn’t be found.
Then he leaned back against the sofa and wiped his thumb over his lips.
The white milk foam was wiped off and he stretched out his tongue to lick it lightly, casually acting like a lazy cat.

Xu Yuheng saw this and finally couldn’t help sighing.
“Can’t you use a tissue or handkerchief? What does this look like?”

Xu Sili blinked.

“En.” He responded positively before grabbing the towel around his shoulders and using it to wipe his fingers.
“Second Brother, why are you looking for me?”

Xu Yuheng took a deep breath.
He slowed down, revived his momentum and held a document in his hand while reciting carefully.
“Three villas, ten sports cars, 5% of the Xu family’s shares and one billion yuan in capital…”

The man on the big screen finished reading the data and finally looked up, his eyes sharp as a knife behind the lens of his glasses.
“Xu Sili, you had better give me a reasonable explanation.”

The young man picked up the milk on the table, took a small sip and answered, “It is just an interesting investment.”

“Investment? What type of investment needs so much money?” Xu Yuheng stared at him firmly.

“Don’t you already know it?” His second brother had never fought an unprepared battle.
He must’ve investigated clearly before coming to Xu Sili.

Xu Yuheng couldn’t help sighing.
“Holographic technology is a bottomless pit.
It is impossible to see results for at least 20 years.
Why do you want to throw all your net worth into it in one go?”

“It isn’t all of my net worth.
I still have some left.”

“It is almost all of it!”

Xu Sili saw his second brother’s eyes that seemed to be releasing fire and shrugged.
His second brother knew that he had always loved playing games.
His tone became lighter.
“I am very optimistic about this project.
Holographic games will definitely become a trend in the future.
In addition…” He suddenly smiled.
“The project developer has promised me that he will use me as a prototype to design an NPC in the game.
I will become an emperor in the game, ruling a country and being called a king!”

Xu Yuheng stared at him with an indescribable expression on his face.
These eyes were probably too straightforward.
Xu Sili coughed and finally restrained his slightly chuuni nature.

“It is all my personal property.
I am still young.
Even if I lose money, I can earn it back.” He continued, “If you help me hide it and don’t tell Big Brother and our parents, I promise nothing will happen.”

“Oh, so you know how to be afraid.” Second Brother Xu pushed up his glasses.
“There is a dance party next week.
Go for me and I will help you keep it a secret.”

“Is it a blind date again?” Xu Sili frowned.
“Second Brother, I am a public figure…”

“Are you going or not?”

“I’m going.”

“Okay, I’ll send you the invitation later.” Xu Yuheng nodded with satisfaction.
They exchanged a few more words but he shut off the communication with a snap.

The big screen darkened.
Xu Sili slowly moved back.
He leaned on the sofa with his thin back, moonlight pouring in front of the window onto his handsome face and making him look paler.
He lowered his eyes as he thought about something blankly.
Moonlight fell on the pillow on the ground.
He saw the title of the document pressed under the pillow with the words ‘Medical Record Report’ vaguely written…

Xu Sili was stunned for a long time.
Then he rubbed his half-dry hair and grabbed his phone.
He fell back on the sofa and continued to sink into the game.
A game was won and a system prompt appeared on the phone.

[You have won 1,000 victories on the battlefield and your ranking on the battlefield is 1st.
Congratulations on winning the title of ‘Grand Marshal’.
You can go to the Achievement Mall and redeem jade to exchange for the identity reward.]

Xu Sili was taken aback.
He couldn’t remember how long he had been doing this task.
Unexpectedly, it was completed? He clicked on the Achievement Mall and saw the lit up marshal’s uniform in the battlefield column.

[Marshal’s Uniform]

[Description: Unique identity clothing.

Redemption Restrictions: A total of 1,000 victories in battlefield challenges, 1st place in the battlefield rankings, the title of Grand Marshal.

Redemption Conditions: 1,000 jade.]

Xu Sili clicked to redeem.

[Successfully redeemed.
1,000 jade is deducted.]

A prompt about the successful redemption popped up on the phone screen.
At the same time, a card of jade quality jumped out.
There was the special effect of a glittering golden light and he could see that the card was a gorgeous military uniform with white gold thread.
The words ‘Marshal Uniform’ was written under the card.

The moment he succeeded in the exchange, the full-server broadcast appeared at the top of the game and the system message column in the lower left corner started to fill the screen.
The world news had exploded and there was the non stop ringing of private messages.

Xu Sili ignored it.
He carefully placed the card in his backpack, clicked on the map and selected a frequently visited location.

[Entering the ‘Duke of Dark Night’s Palace’…]

The phone screen dimmed before soon brightening again.
An exquisite and luxurious ancient castle that wasn’t lacking in dignity slowly appeared on the screen.
It was night in the game and the castle was brightly lit.

[The Duke of Dark Night, ‘Si Sheng’, has just returned from the battlefield and is bathing and changing clothes.]

Xu Sili raised his eyebrow slightly.
He tapped on the screen with his slender fingers and entered the castle bathhouse.
It was a pity that when his screen turned from dark to light, the Duke of Dark Night was already neatly dressed.
Apart from the slightly wet hair, no other traces could be seen.

The moonlight shone down from the peak, reflecting a bright moon in the sparkling pool water.
Next to the bath stood a tall man.
The man had short, light gold hair but he was dressed in a pure black dark night duke’s outfit.
His gray-blue eyes should be a gentle color but they gave people a sense of coldness and majesty.

Under Xu Sili’s gaze, he slowly reached out his hand and grabbed a scepter inlaid with red gems from empty air, playing with it in his hand.
Then as if he had noticed something, the man looked at Xu Sili sharply.

Xu Sili was
