The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time

Chapter 250: Shao Cheng Night Plan And A Sudden Surprise. "... Time To Fool Someone."

Although Shao Cheng has decided to be a good thief in the middle of the night after being reminded in the unofficial date with Ren Yuan about being poor but it was something that he has already considered in doing after the rebirth.

After all, having an enormous amount of money is one of the necessary pieces needed in order to be capable enough to perform nearly all of what he wanted to do.

Not only does he need to think about the process of making Ren Yuan sit on the throne while having a good reputation rather than having the stain of being called a rebel just like in the previous life, but he also needed to consider a long-lasting plan concerning the future development of the Chang Empire.

Shao Cheng required to have Money, Status, Prestige, Influence, and People in order to have a higher chance of fighting against the Imperial Family and every single people with great ambition to rise high, especially those people who secretly desire the throne and authority in their own hands.

Despite the fact that he has won the fight in the previous life, it doesn't mean that it will remain the same in the new life, having a ridiculous self-confidence and a great amount of assurance because of the previous life experience wouldn't do him any good.

He has to be always open-minded while guarding against any great possibility of failing the fight for the throne, especially while having the mindset that anything can happen.

In every single second, Shao Cheng is always reminding himself of what he would lose once he failed.

So, it's simply impossible for Shao Cheng to easily relax because until the moment he witnesses Ren Yuan become the Emperor along with fulfilling the additional wish of the deal he made with the Chang Spirit, he would never feel completely and wholeheartedly at ease.

"My Beautiful Cousin~ You have been so bad lately~ Now you are even taking us out to steal the money back from those corrupted officials! Damn, it's simply awesome! I don't need to always please my Mother anymore to give me extra money in my allowance! I'm really happy that you have woken up and becoming big-hearted my wonderful Cousin!"

"Well, most of the time, money can make anyone happy in life! By the way, I'm really curious how my Icy friend has figured out that there is enough wealth hidden in this simple looking restaurant"

While thinking of the heavy obligation and duty in mind, Shao Cheng was casually sitting upon the rooftop of one of the building in the middle districts in the Chang Capital before flickering his eyes toward a grinning Xixi and an excited Pengfei and glancing toward the five tall hidden guards standing silently behind them.

"Hmm four more places to go after we are done with this one."

The entire time, Shao Cheng's eyes have been glowing in purple color while checking a far detailed layout of the supposedly simple restaurant that has a complicated hidden basement where they have stored the stolen and bride silver and gold ingots.

According to the detailed maps, which is already memorized and stored in Shao Cheng mind while basing it on the previous life memories along with the present information, there are five safe places he can ransack tonight which was also closed to the few hidden place that Pengfei has slowly and secretly build up for many years in the Chang Capital.

Honestly, if Shao Cheng doesn't have the mysterious and compelling binding power with the help of the Chang Spirit, there is no way that he would have easily trusted Pengfei, especially with what he was doing tonight.

After all, just base on all the hidden private places around the Chang Capital, along with countless identities and people spread all around the Empire has already shown how dangerous and terrifying this supposed friend of his really is.

Pengfei's ability and skill to grow his power around the place is simply marvelous and amazing.

And such acts of building and spreading power in the Chang Empire can only lead anyone to completely assume that this foreigner from another Empire has dangerous thoughts and plan in mind.

Fortunately, turning Pengfei into a subordinate has made Shao Cheng who doesn't have his own power and people to become extremely fortunate, especially when he has more in-depth knowledge of the man's true identity and the powerful motive n that doesn't go against what he wanted.

"Let's go."

Despite what countless thought Shao Cheng has in mind, he was able to quickly and silently take all the hidden money in just a matter of thirty minutes, after all, the sleeping hallucination drugs and the special ability to spy any place as long as there is life aura on it has made everything easy and safe.

Particularly when Pengfei's mysterious power with the use of talisman has easily caused the weight of the silver and golds they stored in strong clothes has made it lighter to carry along with silence spell that has further lessened the dangerous key factor of quietly carrying countless money.

So, after going back and forth in many places, Shao Cheng along with Xixi, Pengfei, and the 5 Tall hidden guards has managed to safely ransack the five target place and was now facing a countless amount of silver and golds in one of the secret places to store the money that they have stolen.

"Wow! So much silver and golds!!! I'm a rich woman now! It's too bad that we are only doing this tonight, My Beautiful Cousin, can we go steal another place of those corropted officials tomorrow? Look at how much money we got!"

"My Icy Friend, you are truly a fearsome person! Once you decided to make a move, there is nothing stopping you! When I started being a merchant in order to accumulate money, I have struggled in my early years! And look at you! You have become a rich man in just a few hours! Ah, there is really a reason why you are one of the special individuals I met!"

Despite facing countless silver and golds while being praised by the two people happily counting the money they have stolen, Shao Cheng has remained calm and indifferent, after all, he has already experience seeing the Emperor and Empire treasury in the previous life, there is just too much difference after facing the money before him.

So it wasn't something to be really astounded and excited about, he has long lost the thrilling feeling of seeing and receiving important materialistic objects that can make people envy and jealous of.

Especially when Shao Cheng wasn't a greedy person to begin with and only desiring simple thing that was just so hard to get, or else he would have chosen to become the Emperor in the previous life when he was given the chance.

He just hopes to be able to get a peaceful and satisfying life after everything is over.

For now, he easily refuses Xixi's request of going out again the next day, after all, he wasn't planning to target all of the lists of people he has in mind.

There was no need to alert anyone that would lead to a dangerous situation that he couldn't predict or fight against while also letting them increase their money to a larger amount because before they can fully use it, the money would belong to him in the future.

"Be more greedy! At least, remember the beauty and charming Yuan that need to be pampered and treated like precious treasures! You need money to please your Brother Yuan! So, cousin, you really have to listen to me! Let's go get more money and just forget Father share!"

"..."

Believe it or not, that charming Ren Yuan is filthy rich... Besides, why does it sound like you want to get your Father share of money?

"Hahaha, Sister Xixi is such a bad girl~ Although she is right my Icy Friend, you have to carefully take care of your precious friend! Base on what I know, your precious friend really loves to hang out all around the Chang Capital, you definitely need money to make him happy!"

Shao Cheng can only coldly stare at his greedy cousin and supposed grinning friend before waving to the five hidden guards to take the money meant for his Uncle Enlai, after all, he still needs to show proof about his purpose of letting his Uncle knows what he has been secretly up to.

Particularly when he already knows that his Uncle Enlai needed more money in order to take care of his own subordinate since the royal court officials are more partial toward the scholar side rather than the military, which wasn't a good thing for the Chang Empire future development.

Shao Cheng couldn't let the Empire military to decline in power, especially when he wasn't sure if the neighboring Kingdoms that have only tried to continuesly stir trouble in their borders to suddenly decide a full out scale of war against them.

Because unlike the previous life where only the Lau Empire has gone against the Chang Empire, another war might happen to the other neighboring Empire because of just a simple change.

Shao Cheng was already preparing for the butterfly effect to occur, especially when the present Emperor doesn't have the great determination and wisdom to fight against an Empire that would suddenly show their ambition.

Ah, I'm still busy and worrying about the Empire despite having no status and title... 

"We are done."

Seeing that everything has worked out well for tonight without any troublesome situation abruptly emerging, Shao Cheng has inwardly let out a relieved sigh before rushing back home, of course, after making sure that the excited Xixi which is murmuring to take a certain person to witness the adult world was taken back in the Su Residence rather than going back with him.

Although Tian Ying sure is a pitiful man since Xixi has unquestionably decided to take him in the red light district, which is definitely in a male brothel.

After arriving in the familiar courtyard, Shao Cheng has taken another quick bath before changing into new sleeping clothes that are quite similar to what he has been wearing before Ren Yuan has fallen into a deep sleep.

"I'm back"

Even though the man was sleeping deeply, Shao Cheng couldn't help but softly whisper before carefully climbing up the bed and thoughtfully taking the man in his arms after a few seconds of complicated emotions and thoughts if he should hug him while sleeping.

"... it's alrighthe doesn't know only sleeping with each other as usual... I'll just be more cautious later"

The purple that was shoed away has rolled his purple eyes after hearing the wicked man's uncertainty and foolish reason before flying away in order to go comfort and coax his pitiful younger brother that was accused of stealing the stupid shameless Pinky wives.

Damn Pinky, how dare he bully their youngest!

Although, Papa bug is also pitiful since he has already fallen in the pit, there is no way that he can get away anymore...

Sigh The Adult is always making everything complicated! Isn't it fine to just let go and release the inner beast within you? I'm sure Mama Bug would love it! He might be shy and surprise at first but he would once again become hopelessly fall for you!

No one else will be able to have Mama Bug love besides Papa Bug!

Unbeknown to the Purple dragon brazen thought, Shao Cheng has a peaceful night with Ren Yuan obediently sleeping in his arms before he was given a surprise early in the morning by a slightly flustered Little Xiaolin that has gotten back early in the morning to fulfill his duty of serving them.

"T-Teacher! Young Master Yuan's father has suddenly arrived at the front gate and was clamoring to see his precious son that was helplessly fascinated by your b-beauty! The Madams and Masters were already making sure on stopping him from running around in order to locate your courtyard!"

"..."

The Prime Minister?

Shao Cheng that has just woken can only silent while gazing at the morning sunlight that has just started to slip through the window while Ren Yuan that was also awakened can only remain stunned in his arms after hearing Xiaolin's words.

did that old man escape his work again, then deciding to run in my place while planning to wrecked havoc?

Shao Cheng can only let out a sigh while patting the silky long hair of the person in his arms with various thoughts in mind.

"Let's go meet your old man..."

While it's time to fool the Sly Old Man that he doesn't have any evil thoughts toward his precious son damn...
