Ghost Catching System

He Shaotian finally remembered that Chu Hao was ruthless when hitting others, and he had felt it deeply today. He cursed, ”Cheap woman, you just wait for me!”

The unlucky He Shaotian and his associates looked at their beloved cars, heartbroken.

It couldn’t be helped!

There was an important gathering now, and they couldn’t leave.

Chu Hao and his group also entered the venue.

The venue was bustling with people. High-end hospitality, red wine, beautiful women, and handsome men – it had everything. It was said that Herz was a young man, and he had come this time hoping to connect with some of Huaxia’s youth.

Of course, the person everyone most wanted to befriend was Herz himself. Perhaps they could promote their own companies to him and secure his lucrative investments, which would be perfect.

So, the main focus of this gathering was Herz himself.

He Junhao’s expression was grim. Seeing Yi Qingcheng and Chu Hao arm in arm, his heart ached unbearably.

A woman who had come with him and another man said, ”Don’t mind it too much. Maybe Charmingly is deliberately doing this to test you.”

He Junhao asked, ”What do you mean?”

The glamorous woman said, ”Think about it! We’ve had quite a few encounters with Yi Qingcheng. When has she ever had a boyfriend? Usually, when men approach her, she’s cold and distant, but today she’s acting so out of character.”

After pondering, He Junhao felt there might be something to it. Maybe this is indeed a test. He couldn’t calm down as he stared at Chu Hao’s departing figure. No matter who this kid is, if he dares to toy with me, I’ll never let him go. Cross me, He Junhao, and you will die a very ugly death.

He Junhao licked his lips.

Today, Chu Hao was different. He was tense, and with his Unlucky Show-off ability being three times more potent, God knew what might happen.

The System said, ”Host, you still don’t understand the meaning of Unlucky Show-off.”

Chu Hao was taken aback as the System took the initiative to speak to him. He asked, ”What do you mean?”

The System said, ”This System can’t stand watching anymore. The Host has been showing off for so long yet still doesn’t get how to utilize Good Luck Show-off and Unlucky Show-off. With your lack of understanding, this System is worried for you.”

Chu Hao’s face darkened. The System occasionally ridiculed him and seemed to have become addicted to it. He said, ”Stop talking nonsense and just spit it out.”

The System explained, ”The Pretentious Dice test the Host’s real-time show-off capabilities. In the face of unexpected events, the Host has to deal with the surrounding environment, objects, and people to complete the act of showing off.”

Listening, Chu Hao was a bit stunned and took a while to react. He finally responded, ”Are you saying that fortune and misfortune are just to test my real-time showing-off abilities?”

Listening to this, how high-end does that sound?

The System affirmed, ”Yes, Host, you’re not too stupid. Think about your past misfortunes. When dealing with all sorts of unlucky and bizarre situations, if the Host calmly faced them and showed off, it could result in a significant amount of Pretentiousness Points.”

Hearing this, that seems quite reasonable, Chu Hao thought. Thinking about it, every misfortune did bring unpredictable events. If I could respond with inconceivable means, wouldn’t I be able to show off in all sorts of ways?

Chu Hao suddenly had an epiphany.

The System then said, ”After becoming a Pretentious Expert, the next level is Little Prince of Pretension. The Host should quickly transition to the next stage. However, this System believes that the Host has not yet qualified for the next stage, so now I’m issuing another task.”

As soon as Chu Hao processed this, he heard the System’s prompt.

System prompt: ”Task: Truly master the essence of being a Pretentious Expert to qualify for the next stage; otherwise, you will not be able to progress to the next stage.”

Chu Hao’s face darkened. This means I have to grasp the true essence of a Pretentious Expert to level up. Otherwise, no matter how many Experience Points I have, I won’t be able to advance. This is such a scam! What is the true essence of a Pretentious Expert?

Chu Hao suddenly realized that the System could not only change his fate but was also constantly pushing him to break through the bounds of showing off.

While others are comprehending cultivation realms, I’m here comprehending the realm of showing off. Who can even compete? System, I’m not even impressed by a wall, but you? You have my respect. The true essence of showing off... how incredibly difficult. Thinking like this, Chu Hao let go of his concerns. My path of showing off is still very long indeed.

He was no longer afraid. Instead, he was eager, almost hoping misfortune would strike even harder. Bring it on!

At that moment, He Junhao approached with a glass of red wine in hand and said, ”I don’t care who you are or whether Charmingly sent you to test me, but I’m quite annoyed with you right now.”

His tone was condescending, as if a Buddha were looking down upon mortals as ants.

Chu Hao calmly replied, ”If you’re annoyed, then I am the clear sky.”

He Junhao’s mouth twitched. This kid’s words give me an inexplicable urge to punch him; he’s just too much of a show-off!

He Junhao took a deep breath and said, ”Do you know who I am? Speaking to me like that, you’re going to die an ugly death, and not even Yi Qingcheng can protect you.”

Chu Hao’s expression remained indifferent as he playfully asked, ”And who are you?”

He Junhao said, ”I am He Jun...”

Before he could finish, they heard a woman’s exclamation.

They saw two women, roughly in their late twenties, excitedly running over.

Both women were quite attractive, scoring above seven out of ten, wearing evening dresses that accentuated their back curves, looking very sexy.

The woman on the left exclaimed, ”Master, what are you doing here?”

The other woman also said, ”Great Master, what are you doing here?”

Chu Hao glanced at the two women. They look somewhat familiar.

The tall woman excitedly said, ”I’m Mu Xue, don’t you remember?”

The other woman, just as excited, said, ”I’m Xiao Jing, the one who drove for you before.”

Chu Hao then remembered. Ah, Xiao Jing. The maid I took in when I first started practicing my ’cold and aloof show-off’ style. Back then, my cold, disdainful show-off act had unearthed this woman’s servile nature. The thought of it still gives me a sense of accomplishment. And Mu Xue... she’s the young, successful boss of an online drama entertainment company. She was there when I dealt with the European and American Spider Spirit, and I even had her pour wine for me.

Chu Hao nodded and said, ”I remember.”

The two women were overjoyed. They had been longing for Chu Hao since they last parted and were exhilarated to bump into him again in the Imperial Capital.

He Junhao frowned. Are these two women sick in the head? Especially that Xiao Jing, calling Chu Hao ’Master’? That’s just too bizarre.

He Junhao continued, ”I am He Jun...”

”Master, I thought I might never see you again,” Xiao Jing said excitedly, pushing He Junhao aside and stepping forward.

Chu Hao casually said, ”Now that you’re here, have a seat. I’ll pour the wine for you.”

Xiao Jing, thrilled, replied, ”Yes.”

Then, she respectfully poured wine for Chu Hao. She didn’t sit on the sofa but crouched on the floor, her adoring manner resembling that of a servant, leaving onlookers speechless.

”DING! By accentuating the Host’s show-off, you’ve received 900 Pretentiousness Points.”

He Junhao was dumbfounded. Is this woman out of her mind? What era is this, still calling someone ’Master’?

Mu Xue, not to be outdone, respectfully lit a cigarette for Chu Hao from the side. Rarely seeing Chu Hao, and recalling how he had dominantly crushed the European and American Spider Spirit like a war god last time, she was infatuated.

With one beauty on the left pouring wine and another on the right lighting a cigarette, there was a certain boss-like demeanor to the scene.

Chu Hao took a deep drag of his cigarette, his eyes brimming with indifference and world-weariness, looked at He Junhao, and asked, ”What were you saying?”
