"The attributes of Ye Feng in the book are above 180 on average. As a retired soldier king, he not only has terrifying strength and speed but has also mastered many high-grade skills. For example, he has Master level martial arts, Advanced Gunmanship, Advanced Medical skills, etc." Shen Lan explained.

"Damn it! The urban noob writer wants to puff the hero, but is the protagonist still human? The attributes make him a tank!" Lin Yuan couldn't help but scold.

"Your opinion is correct." Shen Lan agreed.

"It is really a tank." Shen Lan's confirmation dumbfounded him.

"It seems I have to work harder to earn points to increase my strength and fight against this heaven-defying man," Lin Yuan said.

"Correct! Speaking of earning points, host, why did you break off the engagement with Yan Ruyue?" Shen Lan abruptly asked him.

"Because I don't want to be a licking dog," Lin Yuan said.

"Yan Ruyue is the first heroine in the novel and can be called a living treasure. Her entire body is full of counterattack points. As long as you successfully chase her, you will receive a massive amount of counterattack points! You are foolish to terminate the marriage contract with her?" Although the system does not have independent consciousness and intelligence, it still has a wise brain and so will advise Lin Yuan to gain counterattack points.

"So … the marriage contract should be released." Lin Yuan said.

"?????" If Shen Lan had a head, it would be filled with question marks.

"Didn't you see the original Lin Yuan be a licking dog for so long? Did it lead to any progress with the heroine? Forget it; it does not make sense to explain it to you." Lin Yuan realized that Shen Lan might be useful in many ways, but when it comes to love, he has a mental disability, so don't count on it.

" "

Lin Yuan, who has read the novel, clearly knows the preferences of the first heroine, Yan Ruyue.

Yan Ruyue's character is cold; she is a genuine iceberg beauty. She is disgusted with men due to her family upbringing. Her mother's arrangement increased her loathing. If you want to chase her down, a marriage contract is a wrong way to do it. Being a licking dog is even more hopeless. As the first heroine in the novel, she is truly a walking treasure. Lin Yuan will naturally not let her go, but he cannot be too anxious. He wants Yan Ruyue to take the initiative to chase him. He won't be a licking dog in this lifetime.

...

"Lin Yuan! Why did you suddenly want to break off the engagement?" A female voice questioned Lin Yuan as he entered the house.

Lin Yuan looked up and saw his mother, Meng Yuelan, glaring at him with her arms akimbo.

His father, Lin Jianjun, beside a quilt, was drinking lukewarm water.

In his family, his mother's temperament is relatively impetuous and resolute. His mother seemed to be in charge of the house, but Lin Yuan knows that she is in charge of only trivial matters. His father, Lin Jianjun, was bolder and usually made the final decision on major issues.

The former 'Lin Yuan' would have muttered complaints as an explanation in the face of Meng Yuelan's questioning.

However, the present Lin Yuan is not like the former.

"Don't be anxious! I will explain everything clearly to you," Lin Yuan leisurely took off his shoes and also poured a cup of tea for himself.

Lin Yuan's eloquence was pretty good.

He was able to confront his parents without having any natural fear of them. Under his persuasion, in half an hour, they had accepted to him breaking off the engagement.

"Well done! Why does a man of character fear he will not have a wife?" Lin Yuan and Meng Yuelan were communicating for half an hour while Lin Jianjun served as a listener.

Lin Jianjun spoke when Lin Yuan had finished speaking. He seemed to approve of Lin Yuan. Meng Yuelan glared at Lin Jianjun, and thus he continued to drink warm water.

Lin Yuan said, "Mom, please take out the engagement book. I will go to the house of the Yan family tomorrow to retire from marriage.

Meng Yuelan quickly went to the room and came back with a piece of red paper. It was precisely the engagement book!

Lin Yuan reached out to take it, but Meng Yuelan was reluctant to hand it over.

"Alas! I am a bit hesitant to let go of my daughter-in-law!" Meng Yuelan sighed.

"Damn it! Mom, if you have to use force to break a melon off the vine, it won't taste sweet[1]," Lin Yuan persuaded.

"If you have to use force to break a melon off the vine, it won't taste sweet but it is still fragrant. Didn't you look at Yan Ruyue's snowy skin, beautiful long legs? Is she not fragrant?" Meng Yuelan asked.

Lin Yuan nearly spewed out the tea he was drinking.

Was she my stepmother, after all?

Lin Yuan helplessly said, "You look at other people's melon fragrance, but why don't you look at me? I am a Gao Fusuai, what qualification am I missing?"

"Yes, you make sense…" Meng Yuelan nodded mutteringly.

Lin Yuan did not hesitate, grabbing the engagement book, he returned to his room.

"Shen Lan, I want to ask a question. Is this body mine?" Lin Yuan asked while looking at the mirror.

"Yes, host."

"This is your own body; you have just replaced the identity of Lin Yuan."

Lin Yuan was relieved to hear Shen Lan's explanation.

Although, possessing a body, is no different from having a new one, but Lin Yuan was still anxious. If he had possessed the dead Lin Yuan's body, he would be disturbed in his heart.

"It would be nice if I had more counterattack points. I want to upgrade my attributes, but the counterattack points are too few to be able to do so. This body is useless, and I only have money left." Lin Yuan thought.

"Ding! The host can purchase counterattack points!" Shen Lan reminded

At the same time, a screen appeared in front of Lin Yuan.

[Recharge: One hundred thousand yuan[2]= One counterattack point,

Ten million yuan= 100 counterattack points]

"Ss! That means 10 million yuan can upgrade only a single attribute?" Lin Yuan gasped. Isn't system purchase too pitted?
