My System Arrives 3 Years Earlier, But the Deities Haven't Come Yet

The suburban villa in the eastern outskirts is only five kilometers away from the newly established Longshen New City.

Soon, Zeng Shen drove the two women to their destination.

At the entrance of the villa, several men in black stood guard.

Next to them were two young men dressed in expensive designer clothes, holding flowers and standing on tiptoe, peering into the villa.

When Zeng Shen parked the RV in the parking space in front of the villa, the two young men looked over in confusion.

Their eyes lit up when they saw Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong getting out of the car. One after the other, they quickly ran over.

The first young man to approach said, "Good morning, Yuqing. I've come to watch you film the short drama again. Here are some flowers and a small gift for you. I hope we can have lunch together."

The other young man, who ran up to Liu Tongtong, said, "Tongtong, I like you too. Can we have lunch together later?"

Seeing these two young men, Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong's good mood instantly vanished.

Their faces, which had been filled with joy because of Zeng Shen's return, immediately turned cold.

"Lin Hui, I don't need your gifts. This is my boyfriend, so please have some respect," Li Yuqing said, wrapping her arm affectionately around Zeng Shen.

"Impossible," Lin Hui said, looking as if he had been struck by lightning, his face full of disbelief. "He must be a stand-in. Who are you, pretty boy?"

Lin Hui glared angrily at Zeng Shen.

"Hmph, Lin Hui, I warn you to speak respectfully," Li Yuqing snorted coldly, then turned to Zeng Shen and kissed him before saying coldly to Lin Hui, "Are you convinced now?"

Lin Hui's eyes widened in shock as he pointed at Li Yuqing and then at Zeng Shen. "You... break up with Li Yuqing, or I'll make you pay, you good-for-nothing pretty boy..."

"Lin Hui, get lost," Li Yuqing shouted angrily, cutting off Lin Hui before he could continue his tirade. She raised her hand and slapped him.

"Slap."

The sound of the slap was clear.

Lin Hui clutched his cheek, which had suddenly been slapped. Feeling humiliated, he roared, "Li Yuqing, we've known each other since we were kids, and now you're hitting me for this pretty boy. You b—"

Zeng Shen frowned, not bothering to argue. He cast a spell of acute gastroenteritis on him.

Instantly, just as Lin Hui was about to curse, he stopped, clutched his stomach, looked around, and then dashed toward a small grove nearby.

Meanwhile, Liu Tongtong coldly rejected the young man in front of her, "Ye Li, I already have someone I like. Please stop doing this."

"Tongtong, give me a chance. I can change into the kind of person you like."

"Don't waste your time. Go back," Liu Tongtong said, turning away from him and joining Zeng Shen and Li Yuqing by the driver's side, saying, "Let's go, we're running late."

"Ah, right. Honey, let's hurry into the villa, or Huang Yuxing and Wu Xinyue will nag me for being late," Li Yuqing said, taking Zeng Shen's hand.

"Those two episodes don't feature Yuxing today, and her mom has taken her on leave to visit family for two days. She won't be on set," Liu Tongtong corrected, following them.

As for the two young men, Zeng Shen paid them no mind. They were just nuisances, after all.

When Zeng Shen reached the entrance of the villa, the two men in black guarding the gate immediately recognized him and greeted him, "Brother Shen."

"Huh." Li Yuqing was surprised. "Honey, you know them?"

"Not to hide it from you, inside, the one playing the male lead, Tifa, is a friend introduced to me by Xiao Ai," Zeng Shen explained.

"I see," Li Yuqing nodded, understanding, then urged, "Let's hurry inside, honey, or I'll be late."

Zeng Shen smiled and followed her in.

Just as he was about to step inside, a rapid warning sounded in his ear.

[Danger! Danger! The host is about to enter a Tier 2 Beginner Secret Realm in the suburban villa. With the host's current strength, you may become trapped in the secret realm, unable to complete it and leave with valuable item cards, resource cards, or even rare card rewards. Please leave immediately and return once you have increased your strength to break the core of the secret realm and complete the first clearance.]

"Tier 2 Beginner Secret Realm?"

Hearing the new danger warning, Zeng Shen was momentarily stunned.

How did this suburban villa become a secret realm? Could it be that under the influence of divine energy, certain places on Blue Star will gradually transform into secret realms? And those who enter a secret realm and break its core receive various reward cards?

Zeng Shen pondered, thinking it was quite possible.

He wondered whether these secret realms, once they appeared, could only be cleared once by each person, or if they would disappear after the first clearance.

As Li Yuqing pulled him into the villa, Zeng Shen saw many busy people setting up filming equipment in the center of the villa.

In the filming area, Little Ti, dressed in a black suit as the domineering CEO, was issuing orders to Bai Qi, who played the secretary.

Approaching, Zeng Shen spotted a familiar little girl in the resting area not far away.

The little girl was dressed in a tomboy outfit, holding a script and memorizing her lines seriously.

"Little Xinyue," Zeng Shen called softly.

Hearing a familiar voice behind her, Wu Xinyue turned her head, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "Uncle Shen, what are you doing here? And why is Sister Yuqing holding your arm? Are you her boyfriend?"

"Yes, I am. Where's your dad?" Zeng Shen admitted openly and sat beside Little Xinyue.

"My dad didn't come today. He's at the big building that Sister Xiao Ai is having built, overseeing the work and signing off. He'll pick me up tonight," Wu Xinyue explained.

Zeng Shen nodded, "Perfect, let's have dinner together tonight. I have a box of formula milk your dad asked me to buy in my car's trunk. I can give it to him."

"Okay, Uncle Shen. Where are we going for dinner tonight?"

Just as Wu Xinyue asked, a girl came over and said, "Sister Yuqing, Sister Tongtong, Little Yueyue, it's your turn."

"So soon." Wu Xinyue pouted, then said to Zeng Shen, "Uncle Shen, we have to go now."

"Honey, you can wait for us here, or if you're bored, you can look around."

"Go ahead, I'll wander around here," Zeng Shen said, starting to explore the villa.

Whenever he saw a staff member or anything living in the villa, he used a Peering Eye on them, trying to gather more information about the secret realm from their analyses.
