Chapter 1

Listen! Cold Lake!

Yaocheng is famous for it, Cold Lake almost occupies half the size of Yaocheng. At a glance, it looks like a bright mirror embedded in the earth. On sunny days, the water shimmers; on rainy days, the mountains are misty. Countless literati and poets have left behind beautiful poems praising its beauty, which has made Cold Lake famous and made people remember Yaocheng.

In the autumn, Cold Lake is rippling with light. Although the cool wind brings a slight chill, under the autumn sun, the lake embankment is still bustling with activity, and people are enjoying the beautiful scenery of Cold Lake to the fullest!

But amidst this beautiful scene, there is a young man who stands out from the crowd. He is dressed simply, his face pale, his lips thin, and a bit of fuzz on his upper lip. His eyes lack luster, but in this sickly appearance, those lifeless eyes occasionally sparkle when a woman with thighs as white as snow passes by.

The young man leans against a willow tree, sizing up the passing girls, looking rather dissolute!

"Who would have thought that after three years away, Yaocheng has so many beautiful women!"

The young man's unashamed gaze makes many beautiful women show disgust and avoid him. This scene makes the young man laugh and say, "Well, it seems impossible to find a woman to talk about life and ideals and recite a poem like 'Stopping by the Maple Forest in the Evening.'"

A few young women with some beauty avoid the young man, glance at him, and whisper to each other, "Do you think this guy who looks at women randomly looks a bit like that scoundrel in Yaocheng?"

"Yeah! He does look a bit like him, no wonder he seems familiar!"

Seeing the few young women spitting and showing extreme disgust, even the young man, who has been tempered for three years in this world, feels a bit bitter inside.

The young man is called Ye Chu. He was originally not from this world but came here due to drunkenness. In his previous life, Ye Chu was a dissolute and unrestrained man. As a senior executive, he loved to frequent various nightclubs, living a decadent life. One night three years ago, Ye Chu got drunk in a bar, holding a beautiful woman he had just met and was about to open the hotel room door. Pretending to be drunk, he leaned towards the woman's chest, which was about to break out of her clothes, but unexpectedly, she was startled and moved away. Ye Chu's head hit the door, and he ended up in this world, his soul landing in the body of a young man also named Ye Chu.

Parasitizing in this young man's body, Ye Chu retained most of the original owner's memory fragments. From these memory fragments, Xu Feng also knew what kind of person the original owner was.

Before having the original owner's memories, Ye Chu already thought his previous life was despicable enough. But compared to the original owner, Ye Chu felt his previous life was a waste, disgracing the pure word "despicable"!

In Ye Chu's view, the original owner was almost impossible to describe with any word. His character was so vile that it was unimaginable. He saw a jade carving in a small family's house, brought people to smash the house, and took the jade carving by force.

His attendant lusted after a woman and actually incited the attendant to rape her.

But such acts of violence and bullying were already considered good behavior for him!

In his previous life, although Ye Chu was weak, he was still somewhat smart. He used his small intelligence and family influence to almost wreak havoc in Yaocheng.

During the original owner's stay at his grandfather's house, he actually drugged his grandfather's adopted daughter, Lin Shixin, with the intention of molesting her. After escaping home, he even tried to molest his distant cousin Ji Die, who was known for her beauty throughout the empire.

This thoroughly enraged his grandfather, the Marquis of Weiyuan, who beat him severely and sent him out of Yaocheng, leaving him to fend for himself.

The original owner was such a scoundrel. In his previous life, Ye Chu was notorious in Yaocheng, almost to the point of being a public enemy. Combined with his wicked nature and lack of cultivation, all kinds of insulting words could be used to describe him.

Ye Chu originally thought that after three years, Yaocheng would have forgotten him. But he did not expect that the people of Yaocheng would still hate him so deeply that they still remembered him after three years.

Ye Chu always thought his next life should be a woman, and he would marry a man like himself. But he never expected to be reborn in such a notorious person. Ye Chu felt that as a talented, elegant, and gentle man, he should be carefully protected by the gods. But instead, the gods directly made him stink and die. Ye Chu suddenly felt that being excellent is also a kind of pain. There is a saying that beautiful women have short lives, but it also applies to excellent men!

"Being too excellent is really not good! It invites jealousy!" Ye Chu couldn't help but sigh, thinking that his death would make many women sleepless.

...

"Little Auntie! Flower... there's a flower..." A little girl's excited voice interrupted Ye Chu's thoughts. Ye Chu followed the sound and saw a little girl skipping to the edge of Cold Lake. The little girl was very pretty, about five or six years old, with a fair and smooth face and a radiant smile.

Behind the little girl, a beautiful woman followed. She was very charming, with a beautiful face, long black hair cascading over her shoulders, a spring-like face, a straight nose, and a bright red lip. Her waist was tightly bound, making her chest appear even more prominent. A thin dress could not hide her long, beautiful legs, and her eyes exuded an irresistible allure.

Even with the memories of Lin Shixin and Ji Die's beauty, Ye Chu still felt a sense of amazement at this woman.

"Little Auntie, Yao Yao wants the flower..." The little girl pointed to a beautiful, unknown flower by the edge of Cold Lake, her voice full of excitement and joy.

The charming woman followed the little girl, watching her reach for the flower and shouted in a hurry, "Yao Yao, don't move, be careful!"

But her warning was too late. The little girl lost her footing, and with a scream, she fell into Cold Lake.

"Yao Yao!" The charming woman cried out, her face panicked, and she ran over.

"Ah... save me... Little Auntie..." The girl flailed in the water, her head bobbing up and down, her voice trembling with fear. But unable to swim, after splashing around, her body slowly sank, and she disappeared, leaving only ripples on the water.

"Yao Yao!" The charming woman was in a panic, shouting, "Please, everyone, help save her."

Her frantic cries for help went unanswered, as no one around knew how to swim.

Seeing the bubbles rising from the water, the charming woman, despite not knowing how to swim, jumped into the lake.

Cold Lake is famous not only for its beauty but also for its depth and coldness.

The charming woman dived down with a burst of energy, but being unable to swim, she could not save anyone. She struggled in the water, her hands splashing the surface, creating white waves like her skin. After a few struggles, she swallowed some water and also began to sink.

"Save Yao Yao... save..."

Her words were cut off as she was submerged. The few women who had just called Ye Chu a scoundrel were shocked and shouted to the surroundings, "Come and save them, two people have fallen into the water."

But clearly, no one around dared to try to save them. Cold Lake was dangerous, and falling in could easily get one entangled in water plants. Only those very familiar with swimming would dare to go in.

Just as the women were in a panic, they saw the young man who had been staring at women run over from a distance, leap into the lake.

The women did not expect the rescuer to be him. They exchanged glances, and one of them muttered, "He just looks like that scoundrel. If it were that scoundrel, he wouldn't jump in to save anyone; he would only throw stones from the shore to make things worse!"
