Lust System: Harem Of Beautiful Women

Chapter 288: System Is OP

You hold grudges against all the things from the past, and even your desire to kill him is understandable. But why are you afraid? You are not a person with that kind of character.

But he was a man in a high position. In his panic, he immediately grasped the key information and asked urgently, ”You’re married??”

Luis was already crying, tears streaming down his face. He clenched his fists, lifting his head with a hateful expression: ”Yes, I’m married. So could you please be merciful?”

”Your wealth and prosperity have nothing to do with me. I finally have my own family. Please don’t destroy it, don’t disturb it, okay?”

This plea sounded incredibly heavy, carrying a pain of finality.

Ye felt his breath catch. Under the effect of the System, they were now completely connected by blood. What panicked him most was why his appearance had terrified his own flesh and blood to this extent.

He was so defiant before, yet now he was kneeling not out of filial piety, but as a plea. He, as a father, was utterly monstrous.

”Get up, get up, please get up and talk.”

Tears welled in Ye’s eyes as an unprecedented sense of guilt and remorse washed over him.

This child he had never raised, who stubbornly refused any help from him, was now kneeling and begging him at this moment of their reunion as adults.

Was his obsession wrong...? But on his cold, ambitious path, he could never forget that touch of warmth.

Luis knew he couldn’t overact. He sat back on the sofa, lit another cigarette, wiped his tears, and said nothing, just thinking quietly.

Ye moved closer then, sitting on the other side, his face full of paternal kindness as he asked, ”Child, you’re married. How is your life?”

”Ding... System prompt. Does the host wish to enhance the System effect?”

Luis was instantly dumbfounded. He was here performing so skillfully, what kind of nonsense was this now?

”Ding... System notification. The Father System effect can be further upgraded to a state of Fatherly Love and Guilt Atonement, which can extend to members of his family, ensuring the host faces no danger.”

”Ding... System reminder. For the sake of safety, it is recommended the host upgrade the System.”

Goddammit, my four blind boxes, those two and the other two, are all gone now.

Luis cursed inwardly first, but immediately realized the severity of the situation. The System only offered this kind of exchange—two blind boxes for one chance—during truly critical moments.

It proved that Ye genuinely had murderous intent. A man of his rank and power could easily make someone disappear without a trace, or arrange a completely legitimate accident.

Thinking of this, Luis decisively chose: ”Exchange!”

All four blind boxes were gone because he activated that System. It just showed Luis was too naive at the start.

Ye’s expression became dazed, clearly showing the System upgrade had taken effect.

When he regained his focus, Luis said with a helpless look, ”Don’t ask for details. I know I’m your stain. I’ll just keep hiding from you, alright?”

”Stain, my ass. You are my child.”

Ye was emotionally stirred. He grabbed Luis’s hand, his voice almost breathless, ”I beg you. I don’t expect you to call me Dad, but at least let me stop worrying.”

Luis utilized his acting skills, looking at him coldly, ”What do you have to worry about? Just go be your official. I’ve always been living just fine.”

”Dad begs you this once, please stop being so stubborn and confrontational with me, alright?”

Ye’s tone softened. He held Luis’s hand tightly and said, ”Talk to Dad. How has life been since you married? I know you hate me, but I beg you, give me a chance to make it up to you, okay?”

”Do you have a house to live in? Do you have a car now?”

Ye, the man who commanded authority, now looked like a pitiful old man as he gazed at Luis and said, ”Dad knows your temper. You never wanted my money or my help before.”

”But you’re married now. Even if you don’t think of yourself, you have to think of your family. You can hate me forever, but please don’t mistreat yourself and your wife, okay?”

”If you never call me ’Dad’ until the day you die, I’ll accept it. But there’s no harm in being a little better to yourself, right?”

This was a man with a heart of stone, a career fiend. For him to say these words showed the System upgrade had affected him like a complete rebirth.

The current Ye was entirely a pleading old father, without a trace of a superior’s detachment.

Luis remained silent for a long while, then said softly, ”You won’t disturb my life?”

”If you don’t need me, I will be invisible. If you need me, I would do anything you require, even if it meant dying.”

Ye’s face darkened, instantly filled with the authority of a high ranking official. ”Have you suffered any grievances? I don’t want you to endure them silently. I know you don’t like the name Ye either, but you are my child. You shouldn’t have to suffer those wrongs.”

”I haven’t suffered any grievances!”

Luis sighed and said, ”We are not from the same world. I’ve grown accustomed to a life of going with the flow.”

”I know. It was my fault. I don’t expect your forgiveness. But at least, if you feel you’re living well, let me have some peace of mind, okay?”

Ye, like a wronged child, sighed and said cautiously, ”I was truly quite impulsive earlier, but I genuinely didn’t mean to cause you trouble.”

”As for me, after my grandparents passed away, I dropped out in middle school...”

”Let’s not talk about the rest. At the very least, I’m not doing this job anymore. I’m doing other things myself, and the income is alright.”

After rambling a bit, Luis looked up very seriously and said, ”I’m married. I became a live in son in law.”

”What??”

Hearing this, Ye was instantly furious. His own son, even if he couldn’t acknowledge him publicly, how could he become a live in son in law? It was too shameful in traditional views.

The moment his emotions surged, Luis didn’t say much, just watched him coldly.

Ye’s emotions stabilized instantly. He said, somewhat awkwardly, ”I was afraid you’d be wronged.”

”No wrongs. My wife is my first love.”

A happy smile appeared on Luis’s face as he said, ”The grudges between my Mother in law and father in law don’t matter. At least they accepted me. I have a family now.”

Hearing this, Ye felt even more heartache. Just as he was about to speak, he looked up and met Luis’s sharp gaze.

”I am a bastard child unloved by parents, not some delicate, precious member of your lofty Sebastian Family, understand?”

Luis looked at him coldly and said, ”They didn’t ask for a bride price. They were willing to take me in as a live in son in law, to let me live in their home. My wife’s love for me has remained the same all these years. A wandering ghost has found its grave. And you still want to look down on it?”

”This...”

Ye didn’t dare say anything more. Any so called illegitimate child from the Sebastian Family’s collateral branches actually lived quite comfortably.

”I won’t disturb your life. So, you’re not working as a accountant here anymore, right?”

Ye was outstanding among men. After a brief adjustment, he said softly, ”If the work here isn’t suitable, I can make some inquiries about what you’d like to do.”

’Make some inquiries’ was an understatement. It wasn’t just about jobs; even in business, a casual word from him could ensure someone’s meteoric rise.

Luis stood up and sighed heavily several times, making Ye feel anxious and uneasy. Knowing the System upgrade had taken effect, Luis naturally didn’t hold back, discarding all his previous apprehension.

He thought for a long time. He truly didn’t know if the System’s effect ran that deep.

Luis didn’t want to take risks. Gritting his teeth, he said, ”I’m really doing fine on my own. I truly want to quit this job. Please don’t make trouble for me right now.”

”I know, I know!!”

The first thought that came to Ye’s mind was to first understand what his son had experienced at this job. Whoever had wronged him would be dealt with severely later.

The mere thought of his son working as a accountant, and in such a state... his anger was immense.
