If you just look at these virtues, Xu Erfu is indeed a shining star of tomorrow!

Born into a prestigious family with many officials, educated, handsome. Even the emperor, likely has the impulse to marry his daughter to him.

Indeed, the emperor was impressed by Xu Erfu's brilliance and even contemplated marrying a princess to him.

However, after hearing about some of Xu Erfu's exploits, the emperor secretly abandoned the idea and felt grateful he hadn't mentioned it to Xu Zhongliang.

Because this little guy...is quite the womanizer!

Since the age of seven, he was peeking at his maids bathing, sneaking into brothels at eight, and at nine, he had bought the freedom of a courtesan, seven years his senior... these incidents and more are too numerous to count.

The incident with the most popular courtesan at the time caused a great commotion.

No brothel owner would happily part with their top courtesan. Yet, Xu Erfu almost tore the place down!

Even his father, Xu Shan, came back from the south specifically because of this, beating the fool out of him.

Yet, in the end, nothing changed Xu Erfu!

The top courtesan, who was once an exquisite beauty pursued by even Prince Xia Jing, is still in Xu Residence today! As for what might have transpired between them and Xu Erfu, that remains a mystery.

These are just the tip of the iceberg. Whether it's the daughters of kings and ministers, or the concubines of rich merchants... As long as he wanted, he nearly always succeeds.

Xu Erfu once sympathetically said to Chu Mo, "We are of the same age, you are even one month older than me, but I am a master of seduction, while you...have never even touched a flower. How pitiful!"

Despite his philandering, all women, young or old, were willing to follow him. There must be enough impeachment articles against Xu Erfu from various kings and ministers to fill a large room. Yet, he continues to live a carefree and unconventional lifestyle.

The only virtue of this guy is that he never forces anyone. And what he dislikes most is those who use force. According to Xu Erfu: Forcing others makes you worse than beasts! He hates those who don't understand how to cherish women.

Yet, in Yanhuang City, there's a saying: Guard against fire, thieves, and Tenth Young Master Xu. Xu Fufu is the tenth in his generation of Xu Family, hence, Tenth Young Master Xu.

If you think Xu Erfu only has these talents, then you are mistaken. He is also the hidden owner of the largest chain restaurant in Yanhuang City!

Aside from the nominal boss of the restaurant, there's only one other person who knows this!

That person is Chu Mo.

Strictly speaking, this business also belongs to Chu Mo!

The reason for opening this restaurant is humorous, simply because Xu Erfu thought the food in other places was terrible. So, he opened his own without informing his family. Who could expect the business to become so successful, it ended up being the best in Yanhuang City.

Now, he dared not inform his family. Otherwise, jealousy would lead to countless impeachment attempts.

The Xu Family may have had a vague idea about Xu Erfu's business, but they didn't bother to probe into it. They probably never imagined Xu Erfu could make it so big.

Xu Erfu brought Chu Mo to the largest restaurant in Yanhuang City - the Gluttonous Pavilion.

This restaurant is Xu Erfu's venture, and the first restaurant he established at the age of ten.

The name of the restaurant was created by Chu Mo. Although Xu Erfu was knowledgeable, his strengths lay in the Hundred Schools of Thought, and poetry.

He used the Hundred Schools of Thought to deal with his family, and poetry to woo girls.

But in terms of miscellaneous knowledge, he was not as good as Chu Mo.

At the time, Xu Erfu had asked Chu Mo to help name his restaurant. Chu Mo offhandedly suggested: "Real gourmets are like gluttonous beasts that dare to eat anything. So, just call it Gluttonous Pavilion."

Chu Mo just said it casually, but to his surprise, Xu Erfu took it seriously. Many people ridiculed the name when the restaurant first opened. But as the Gluttonous Pavilion's fame grew, countless people sought a place there but failed.

"Brother Hei, this restaurant has half your share. I have noted all the profits of these years in the account book. We spent quite a lot opening branches in the past two years, but... your share is still a lot." Standing in front of the restaurant, Xu Erfu proudly said to Chu Mo, "On point, ain't I, bro?"

"Stop messing around. This is something you started all by yourself, I didn't lift a finger to help. I know you consider me your best brother, but if you keep going like this, I will really get angry!" Chu Mo looked at Xu Erfu seriously and said earnestly.

"You are still so boring. I praised you for nothing! Why are you so melodramatic? Didn't you name the restaurant? Didn't you come up with many business ideas and innovations? And some advice on personnel management and appointments... weren't those from you?" Xu Erfu rolled his eyes, "Don't say you didn't fork out a single penny. Do you know how priceless your ideas are to any magnate or big merchant? If they could get one piece of advice from you, their business could take a leap forward. How much do you think that's worth?"

"I've always felt that giving you only half is me being greedy. Never thought you wouldn't want any of it! Chu Mo, if you still consider me your brother, accept it! Otherwise, we're not brothers anymore!" Xu Erfu angrily said.

Chu Mo scoffed, "Stop threatening me with that. I don't want to talk to you. I'm not in the mood lately. Be careful, I might beat you up!"

"Damn it! You think you're the only one with primordial force? Don't believe me? Let's try! Listen! Your Tenth Young Master Xu is no longer the same as he was half a year ago!" Xu Erfu rolled up his sleeves and muttered, "Come on, don't say I bullied a small disabled person... ah!"

"Ah! Ah... Ahhhh!"

Bang!

Today, I drove past the place where I fell into a pit yesterday, going really slowly in case I fell in again, only to find out…damn it! The pit has been filled up! Filled up!! It was just to mess with me, wasn't it? That's totally shameless!

I feel beaten down again. I need a high-quality healing potion called 'recommendation ticket'...
