Jiang Che hadn’t expected that before he could even go looking for Wang Yanran, this woman would take the initiative to come to him.
“Oh, Sister Yanran, come on in and let’s chat.”
Jiang Che glanced at Wang Yanran standing before him and couldn’t help but swallow hard. Wang Yanran’s figure was truly explosive!
[You little brat, where are you looking?]
Wang Yanran, a former police officer, was highly observant of people’s facial expressions. Jiang Che’s persistent gaze made her uncomfortable.
“Ahem... Sister Yanran, what brings you here?”
Jiang Che knew that Wang Yanran was most likely here because of Wang Laiyun.
Wang Yanran collected her thoughts. “Jiang Che, my father is in trouble.”
Jiang Che feigned surprise. “Uncle is in trouble?”
“Yes, my father has been framed for corruption and bribery. But you know my father—he would never do something like that.”
“So... Sister Yanran, you’re not thinking of asking my family to step in and help your father, are you?”
Wang Yanran fell silent. After much deliberation, it seemed that only the Jiang Family had the influence to help.
“Sister Yanran, you know our family is in business. Business and politics shouldn’t mix...”
Jiang Che’s words made Wang Yanran lower her head. She knew this all too well.
“Jiang Che, I was too hasty.”
Wang Yanran’s mood was visibly downcast.
“But... it’s not entirely impossible to help!”
Wang Yanran looked up, meeting Jiang Che’s faint, teasing smile.
“What do you mean...”
“Hehe, Sister Yanran, let’s not talk at the door. Come inside!”
Jiang Che “invited” Wang Yanran into his home.
Upstairs, Bai Qiangwei was engrossed in a drama, while downstairs in the living room, Dong’er sat on the floor feeding a cat, looking utterly adorable.
“Jiang Che... that girl... is she really 20 years old?”
Wang Yanran pointed at Dong’er, unable to believe that such a petite, silver-haired girl could already be 20.
“Of course. Isn’t her identity clear? She’s a girl adopted by the ancient martial arts Jiang Family, registered as a peak-level martial artist in the ancient martial arts department.”
“Alright, alright, Sister Yanran, let’s not worry about Dong’er for now. Let’s talk about Uncle’s situation first.”
Jiang Che led Wang Yanran to the sofa.
......
Over an hour later, Jiang Che and Wang Yanran finally reached an agreement.
“Jiang Che, where did you get all this?”
Wang Yanran was shocked as she looked at the videos on her phone—evidence of crimes committed by Deputy Police Chief Qi Lv. How had Jiang Che obtained this?
“I’ve never gotten along with Deputy Chief Qi Lv, so I’ve had some dirt on him for a while. Taking him down won’t be a problem. Once Qi Lv falls, your father’s situation will be much easier to resolve.”
“As for how I got it... you didn’t think I dug up Qi Lv’s secrets just for you, did you?”
Jiang Che smirked, exuding a somewhat roguish charm.
“You—” Wang Yanran was furious but had no choice. This little pervert, five years her junior, still dared to act so boldly around her.
“Jiang Che, can you give me these materials?”
Wang Yanran asked tentatively.
“Of course,” Jiang Che replied straightforwardly.
[He’s being so cooperative?]
Wang Yanran was surprised. She had expected Jiang Che to give her a hard time.
“Alright, Sister Yanran, everything’s on this USB drive. Taking down Qi Lv won’t be a problem. And once his backers fall... well, you know the rest.”
“Thank... thank you!” Wang Yanran said earnestly, a hint of bashfulness in her eyes that made Jiang Che want to laugh.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the villainous choice.]
[Rewards obtained: Super Butler Team, Eternal Youth Elixir Formula.]
Hearing the system’s notification, Jiang Che’s lips curled into a faint smile.
This was perfect!
With the butler team, he wouldn’t have to worry about discretion in the villa anymore. And if he ever wanted to start a company or business, the team could handle everything for him. He could just sit back and watch the money roll in!
And that Eternal Youth Elixir Formula—now that was a truly rare treasure!
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
iving with nine beautiful women. [Ding! Welcome back to the Joyous Sect, Host…] Lin Yu: ??? I’m clearly in a shared rental, but you’re saying I’m in the Joyous Sect? Watering plants is now [Tending to Spiritual Flora]? Cooking becomes [Researching Elixirs]? Making the bed turns into [Setting Up Formations]? A gentle and innocent auntie, twin classmates, a mysterious hacker girl on leave, a severely socially anxious artist, an elementary school Chinese teacher, a community hospital nurse, a pet shop owner, an antique clock restorer… This system… is kinda interesting.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
at random stations. Passengers can choose to disembark and explore, or stay on board and wait for departure. This world holds endless treasures, but also unknown dangers. The goal is to explore stations, gather resources, upgrade the train, and survive. Unlike others who received food in their newcomer gift packages, Qi Xiao got a module card that activated a special ability—Station Forecast. Every time the train starts moving, it updates detailed information about the next station, warning of dangers and revealing potential treasures. While others must cautiously explore, Qi Xiao can rapidly develop his strength by relying on the station forecasts. [Next Station: Sunshine Gym, a large fitness center with no dangers.] [Next Station: Cai Family Village, contains zombie chickens, danger level: 2. One level-1 treasure chest located in the village chief's house at the center.] [Next Station: Three Mountains Station, contains one large supermarket, no dangers.]
