Chengdu.

In a small restaurant, Li Mang was brushing hot and spicy hot pot while carefully examining the mission documents he had received. However, the content of the documents instantly dampened his joy after being released.

The Chen family, which suddenly rose to prominence five years ago, is now a commercial giant in this city, holding an unparalleled dominant position in Chengdu. However, no one knew that the Chen family's rapid rise to success in just five years was not only due to their luck and business acumen but also because of the emergence of a superpower in their family.

This is a precognitive ability, which can foresee future events in specific situations. In ancient times, this was known as a prophet, an extremely rare ability in the world. If used well, its value is immeasurable. Therefore, as soon as he received the mission, Yang Fan immediately sent Li Mang, fearing any unforeseen changes.

"Unclear target?" Seeing this, Li Mang suddenly felt a sense of melancholy. Not knowing who the Chen family's superpower user is, how can he complete the mission?

Continuing to read, he found that the Yanhuang Intelligence Group was not just sitting around. There were two suspected targets: one was the Chen family's eldest daughter, Chen Zishan, who is 25 years old and already managing the family business as the general manager of Chen's company, a beautiful and elegant woman.

The other was the second daughter, Chen Zining, who is 21 and a third-year student at Chengdu University, the top campus beauty. The photo of the pure and beautiful goddess made Li Mang look a few more times.

After all, he was just a 22-year-old young man, and it was natural to admire beautiful women. Li Mang didn't think there was anything wrong with it. However, thinking about the difficulty of the mission, the admiration in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by confusion.

Both targets are hard to approach! One is a company general manager, the other is a university campus beauty, and the daughter of a commercial giant in this city. There must be many bodyguards around her. How can he get close to her? And how can he communicate with her?

"Boss, check out!"

Li Mang hastily finished his meal, paid the bill, and didn't rush to approach the two targets. Instead, he wandered around the streets. It was a rare opportunity to come out, and if he didn't relax, even God wouldn't forgive him.

Of course, his main purpose was actually to replenish some lacking supplies for the Shanhai Jing space. The usable items inside were very limited, and Li Mang had to take this opportunity to replenish them. Additionally, he planned to buy some farm rice wine, mix it with 'Tangting Mountain Honey,' and send it back home. The benefits of Tangting Mountain Honey are undeniable, and even when diluted with rice wine, it can still bring great benefits to his family's health.

In the afternoon, Chengdu University.

After the class bell rang, the campus began to buzz. A girl in a white dress slowly walked out of the teaching building, standing tall and graceful, with a delicate face and skin that was rosy and fair, as beautiful as a movie star on TV, and as ethereal as a fairy.

"Goddess!"

"Goddess!"

As this beautiful figure moved, both men and women on both sides turned to look. The women felt inferior, and the men were entranced.

However, no one dared to approach her, even stepping aside. She is the daughter of Chengdu's richest man, and not everyone has the confidence to approach her.

"Hello." However, to everyone's surprise, a young man actually blocked the goddess's path.

Chen Zining was also taken aback and couldn't help but size up the young man in front of her. He was in his twenties, not handsome but very spirited. After thinking, she was sure she had never seen him before.

But out of politeness, Chen Zining still responded courteously, "Hello, may I ask what you need?"

The goddess's voice was gentle yet firm, making one feel as if all the pores on their body were opening up, and even the bones seemed to soften.

Li Mang, who was already prepared to be driven away, was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect the second daughter to be so polite. However, he also noticed that due to his appearance, a few men and women had approached, their eyes wary, likely Chen Zining's bodyguards.

Fearing an accident, Li Mang quickly said, "Actually, I don't have anything specific. I just wanted to get to know you. My name is Li Mang, and I'm 22. I happened to pass by Chengdu University and didn't expect to see a celestial beauty. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

In all honesty, although Li Mang found her beautiful, his mind was full of the mission, and he had no intention of flirting. However, due to the lack of social interaction over the past six months, his language skills had deteriorated, and his words came out a bit off.

"Scoundrel!"

"This guy is a stranger, and he dares to flirt with our goddess!"

"He's asking for it!"

The nearby men whispered and looked at Li Mang with unfriendly eyes. However, there was also a sense of schadenfreude. Want to flirt with the goddess? Be prepared to get hurt! There were countless secret admirers, but few pursued her. Only a few, all of high status, had dared to do so, and none of the rash pursuers had a good ending.

Chen Zining didn't get angry; she just smiled and slightly bowed to create some distance, then said, "Thank you, but I need to go home. Goodbye!"

She was neither arrogant nor haughty, but rather polite and brave enough to reject her admirers, showing that Miss Chen had good manners.

"Miss Chen, please wait!" Seeing her about to leave, Li Mang became anxious. However, calling her "Miss Chen" only increased the vigilance of the people around him, and Chen Zining also became wary.

Li Mang had pretended to meet her by chance, but now, without an introduction, he revealed her surname, clearly showing "ill intentions." If his intentions were not confirmed, the bodyguards would have already taken action.

"Who is harassing Miss Zining!"

A voice called out from behind, and a young man with a gloomy face quickly approached, followed by several tall and muscular henchmen. The young man was about the same age as Li Mang but more muscular, standing at about 1.8 meters tall with a strong build.

"It's Master Wu!" The onlookers whispered, looking at Li Mang with a mocking expression. Although the Wu family's wealth was not as great as the Chen family's, their influence was no less, with connections in both the military and government. More importantly, Wu Long was a strong suitor for Chen Zining, and it was rumored that the two families had a good relationship. If everything went well, Wu Long might eventually win the beauty's heart.

"What harassment? I just wanted to have a deeper conversation with Miss Chen. What's it to you?" Li Mang looked at the newcomer with displeasure, but he didn't realize that his words sounded flirtatious. "A deeper conversation" could be interpreted as a romantic interest, which was quite direct!

"..." Chen Zining, who had initially wanted to speak up for him, immediately held back her words and turned to leave without a word. She thought to herself, "This rogue is so bold; it's good for him to get a lesson!" The goddess had a hidden mischievous side.

"Wait, Miss Chen..."

"Stop!" Wu Long and his men blocked Li Mang's path.

Seeing Chen Zining get into a car and leave, Li Mang was inwardly furious, his eyes filled with hostility. He had waited for hours in the university, and just as he finally saw his target, he was blocked by these people. He couldn't say he wasn't angry!

"Brother, there are many people here, and it's affecting the order. Let's talk over there." Surprisingly, Wu Long didn't rush to punish Li Mang but asked politely.

Times had changed, and the rich and spoiled couldn't just beat people up in front of the university without consequences. One exposure could affect their family's future. In the age of media openness, the public's eyes were sharp. Young masters now even received "training" from their families before going to school, and Wu Long knew the risks, so he spoke "politely."

"Sure!" Li Mang, who was still angry, agreed without hesitation. Surrounded by the others, he walked toward the bamboo grove.

The onlookers, though eager to follow, knew that curiosity could be dangerous and quickly dispersed. A rash young man trying to flirt with the goddess was bound to get a lesson from the beginning.
