Chapter 28: The Scoundrel Young Master

"Damn, what a luxurious aircraft! What brand is this? Holy crap, it’s actually a limited-edition Star-Shuttle 900. Man, to think I’d live to see the day I get to ride in such a fancy machine. Once I get back to the Old District, I’m definitely going to brag to Er-Long and the others. I originally planned to head back after this interview, but it looks like that’s out of the question for now. I wonder how Er-Long and his crew are doing—and that proprietress at the hair salon, too. I’m still waiting to lose my virginity to her!"

Lei Bin kept himself from being bored on the road by jabbering away to Xing Meng. As for the pain from his injuries, he could simply ignore it.

Xing Meng could perceive every thought Lei Bin had. Whenever he felt a certain way, he would speak his mind to her directly, which helped him vent his feelings.

In the past, Lei Bin had kept many of his thoughts buried inside, which was quite dull since he had no one to share them with. Now, Xing Meng was effectively his emotional dumping ground; he could say whatever he wanted, curse if he felt like it, or ramble on about his lewd dreams.

After all, Xing Meng had no feelings, would never mock him, and even if he didn't say anything, she would know anyway, so he might as well speak his mind.

"In the future, when you are in the Lei family, this kind of transport will be considered quite ordinary. You still haven't answered my question: why are you so unwilling to acknowledge a grandfather who could bring you such great convenience and sudden wealth? You should know that your presence in the Lei family would also significantly increase the success rate of our mission to root out the Federation's traitors." Xing Meng had been discussing today's events with Lei Bin throughout the journey. To her computerized logic, acknowledging Reina as his grandfather was immensely useful for achieving her goals and would also be of great benefit to Lei Bin. Why was he resisting so intensely?

Hearing Xing Meng's question, Lei Bin smacked his lips and replied, "Xing Meng, this is something you computers can't understand. It’s a human emotion called 'dignity,' you know? Dignity. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not eat food given in contempt. To starve is a small matter, but to lose one's integrity is a great one. The Lei family acts all high and mighty, thinking that calling us back is some sort of charity. Do they think that after driving my father and me out of the family back then, they can just let it slide? I lived just fine without them; why do I need their handouts? When I was a kid and had no food, I’d rather steal and get beaten to death than beg, because I hate the look of pity in people’s eyes when they give charity."

Xing Meng ran a series of symbolic analyses and finally concluded, "These human emotions of yours are very strange. They cause you negative impacts and prevent you from choosing the path most favorable to yourselves."

Lei Bin sighed slightly and said, "Xing Meng, you won't understand. If humans were truly that rational, calculating everything to maximize their own interests, they wouldn't be human anymore. Humans are human precisely because they have a heart—a heart that drives them to do many things. Sometimes, it brings negativity, causing people to degenerate or sink, but it can also spark multiplied strength, driving people to forge ahead. It is because of this that humans are human, and it is why humans are the greatest creatures."

Xing Meng listened to Lei Bin’s words and processed them, but ultimately, she couldn't reach any conclusion; she remained fundamentally unable to understand human emotions.

"Holy crap, such a massive sky garden! Is the Lei family really that badass?" Lei Bin’s eyes lit up as he gazed at the mansion where the Lei family resided.

Once upon a time, in the lowest-level slums, he and his little friends—who used to peek at women bathing—would look up at the exquisite structures in the sky and boastfully declare that one day, they would live in one of them.

Never did he expect that today, Lei Bin would actually be staying in the most magnificent mansion in the entire Federation.

Yet, even though the mansion of his dreams stood before him, he didn't feel a sense of fulfillment. That was because he hadn't walked in gallantly as a master.

He had been forcibly dragged in.

Although, in theory, he could be considered one of the masters of this estate, right now, Lei Bin felt as if he were being violated, rather than enjoying any of this.

"Damn it, why is my life so miserable? Always being violated by fate, constantly forced to do things I don't want to do. Is it really that hard to just be a repair shop owner?"

As the aircraft landed on the massive helipad, Lei Bin was carried out. From the helipad all the way to the main entrance, two rows of people were neatly arranged, all dressed in servants' uniforms.

The moment they saw Lei Bin appear, all the servants bowed respectfully and said in unison, "Welcome back, Young Master." This was a brief welcoming ceremony specifically arranged by Lei Huan for Lei Bin.

With the return of Lei Bin and Lei Xingfeng, the Lei family intended to make a grand announcement so that everyone would know the family still had heirs, and two exceptionally talented ones at that.

These servants, naturally, also needed to see their new master.

After saying this, the servants looked up, their eyes filled with confusion. Why was this young master being carried in while lying down?

Upon hearing the greeting, Lei Bin immediately opened his eyes. Seeing so many servants, he curled his lip. *Damn, how much must they be paying in wages every day?*

"Hey, there are some beauties in there, though." Lei Bin quickly noticed that among the servants were quite a few attractive maids. Some were in their thirties, exuding a mature charm with full figures and smiles, their maid outfits looking quite alluring.

Others were in their twenties, young and beautiful, with fair skin and bright eyes—far higher quality than the maids he used to see in those videos.

*Damn, if they went into adult film, they’d definitely be bestsellers,* Lei Bin thought, his eyes scanning the maids brazenly, his mouth even beginning to water.

Seeing Lei Bin’s undisguised, lecherous gaze, Lei Huan coughed twice and said, "Young Master, you are injured. It’s better if you lie still; it wouldn't be good if your wounds worsened."

Lei Bin, however, completely ignored what Lei Huan said. He stretched his neck, eyes still fixed on the maids, and said, "Haha, it's fine. These minor injuries will heal in a few days, but you can't miss out on beauties. Tell me, Butler, can these maids serve me in bed at night?"

After boarding the aircraft, Lei Huan had already reset Lei Bin’s jaw, so he had no trouble speaking now.

Hearing this, the old butler Lei Huan felt a headache coming on; he wished he hadn't reset the jaw. The others around them also turned pale with extremely strange expressions upon hearing Lei Bin's words.

Is this really the young master of the Lei family? How could he be like this? Every descendant of the Lei family was elegant and well-spoken; even a slightly crude word would never pass their lips.

Yet, here was this young master, sprawled on a stretcher without a shred of decorum, leering at the maids’ chests, drool dripping onto the ground—he was nothing more than a street hooligan.

Lei Huan helplessly coughed twice more and said, "Young Master, these maids are here to manage the household; they cannot serve you in bed."

Lei Huan shook his head inwardly. If Reina found out Lei Bin had said such a thing, he would surely break Lei Bin’s legs into even more pieces.

"Sigh, what a pity. The duck is right by my mouth but I can't eat it. Oh, right, Butler, now that I’m a young master of the Lei family, can I find some women to sleep with? I’m not used to sleeping alone." Lei Bin said with extreme shamelessness.

Lei Huan rolled his eyes at this rude request and, maintaining his patience, replied, "Young Master, that is also not allowed in the Lei family. We absolutely do not permit unknown women to spend the night in the residence."

Lei Bin curled his lip. "Can't do this, can't do that—what’s the point of being a young master? It’s not as good as being in the Old District, where as long as you have money, you can live it up and sleep with whoever you want."

The surrounding servants and bodyguards all rolled their eyes at this. *This is the young master who returned to the Lei family?*

*This... this is just too unrefined.*

*He’s a complete hooligan. He’s totally incompatible with a grand family like the Leis. How could the family have such a descendant?*

Of course, they wouldn't dare say these things out loud.

Lei Huan had served countless young masters, but he had never seen one like this. As a butler, he couldn't use too harsh a tone, so he helplessly waved his hand and said, "Take the young master to his room."

Seeing this, Lei Bin could only smack his lips, lying on the stretcher with his gaze still lingering on the maids.

In truth, while Lei Bin was indeed lecherous, he wouldn't usually be so blatant in front of so many people. He was doing this entirely on purpose. He knew that a family like the Leis had extremely strict rules for their descendants; every detail mattered, and their conduct had to be elegant and noble.

Even one wrong word, sitting with the wrong posture, or acting slightly out of line would lead to severe punishment.

Lei Bin intentionally displayed his hooligan side to make the Lei family look bad, to make that old man Reina angry, and to hopefully force them to kick him out of the family. If that happened, he could realize his dream of opening a repair shop.

*Since you beat me into this state and forced me to be part of the Lei family, well, let's see who breaks first.* Lei Bin thought to himself, a smug smile already appearing on his face.

He had already come up with many ideas that would surely cause the Lei family to lose face and make them unable to tolerate him.

His personality and the environment he grew up in were fundamentally at odds with such a family. If he played his cards right, the Lei family would never be able to handle it.

*Let's start with these maids. With so many of them, it would be a loss not to tease them properly. If I get kicked out, I won't be able to tease them anymore.* Lei Bin thought excitedly, a fire already rising in his gut.
