On the way back from the cave dwelling, Jiang Che sat in the back seat of the Maybach, playing with the jade pendant.
This light yellow dragon jade pendant was exquisitely crafted, clearly an invaluable antique at first glance.
It felt smooth to the touch, giving off a strong sense of affinity.
"Blood oath recognition!"
Jiang Che learned from the plot that the jade pendant needed blood recognition to activate its storage space inside.
He gently bit his finger and dripped blood onto the jade pendant.
After a moment of dizziness, he clearly sensed that some kind of connection had formed between him and the jade pendant.
The jade pendant felt like a backpack to him, allowing him to move items into its space with just a thought.
"Feels... not very useful? Good for magic tricks at best!"
While the storage space was typically a tool for novel protagonists to make money and level up, it wasn't particularly impressive to Jiang Che.
"But since it's Lin Yu's destined opportunity... I'll take it all for myself!"
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Che's mouth.
Originally, he had planned... if he couldn't open the stone door, he would just blow up the entire cave dwelling.
...
"Treading Snow Without Traces"
It was a lightness skill manual that required dark force cultivation to practice. Once mastered, one could walk on snow without leaving footprints and even walk on water.
In the novel, Lin Yu had another nickname: the Lightness Skill Boy.
After cultivating this lightness skill, he began his journey of showing off. When his lightness skill reached small accomplishment... he performed a public display by saving a child who had fallen into a lake, walking on water... amazing everyone.
But now... he had lost one of his major tools for showing off.
Jiang Che roughly scanned through the manual twice, and all its contents were memorized in his mind.
Photographic memory was one of the small perks of being a transmigrator.
......
When Jiang Che returned home, he unexpectedly encountered several unfamiliar faces.
"Xiao Che, you're back? Look who's here!"
"Son, about what you told me last night... After I returned to the company, I had people investigate thoroughly, and they really found something! Several major shareholders were secretly plotting behind my back! If we hadn't discovered it early, the company would have suffered heavy losses!"
"Damn it... these ungrateful wolves! Dare to betray me?"
Though Jiang Yuan was cursing and complaining, his eyes showed fatherly love when looking at Jiang Che.
There was also a hint of pride in his expression.
"This is your Uncle Wang Laiyun, and precious Yanran. You two haven't seen each other for five or six years, right?"
Jiang Yunli displayed her refined upbringing when guests were present.
Wang Laiyun saw Jiang Che and nodded repeatedly.
"Indeed, we haven't met for many years. The little kid has grown so much?"
Wang Yanran, sitting on the sofa, also looked up at Jiang Che.
Her eyes seemed to carry a complex emotion.
Jiang Che smiled lightly and sat down slowly.
Wang Laiyun was the police chief of Hangcheng, and sworn brothers with his adoptive father.
Of course, the most important part was his daughter... Wang Yanran!
One of the female protagonists in the book, a cold and beautiful policewoman.
"Sister Yanran... long time no see!"
"Jiang Che, long time no see!" The usually stern and efficient Wang Yanran seemed somewhat oddly embarrassed at this moment.
...
"Xiao Che, thanks to your Uncle Wang's help today, we caught those corporate spies in the company"
Wang Laiyun smiled and declined modestly, "Not at all, it's just my duty"
But as they chatted... the topic turned to Jiang Che and Wang Yanran.
Jiang Yunli held Wang Yanran's delicate hand, speaking gently, "Yanran dear, you've become so much prettier than when you were little. I've always wanted a daughter since I was young, it's almost become an obsession..."
Jiang Yuan, Wang Laiyun, Wang Yanran: ......
Could you be any more obvious?
What do you mean wanting a daughter? You clearly want a daughter-in-law!
Of course, as Wang Yanran's father, Wang Laiyun was quite concerned about his daughter's marriage prospects... if she could marry into the Jiang Family in the future, it wouldn't be bad, strengthening the relationship between both families.
Wang Laiyun also sighed, "Indeed, my Ranran is already 23, a grown woman... and hasn't even dated anyone, it's really worrying!"
In just a few words, he had sold out Wang Yanran, whose face turned slightly red.
"Dad~ What are you saying?"
But unexpectedly, the conversation got even more outrageous.
"I'm 5 years older than Jiang Che!"
"What's wrong with being five years older? An older woman is worth gold! You're worth double gold!"
Wang Yanran: "......"
Wang Yanran had never experienced such a situation before.
In one word: embarrassing!
If she had known, she wouldn't have come!
"I... I have work to do this afternoon, I should go now!"
With that, Wang Yanran stood up.
"Xiao Che, drive and send Yanran home"
Jiang Che's eyes narrowed slightly, "Alright"
......
The two left the Jiang Family home one after another.
Walking side by side, they made quite a matching pair, though Wang Yanran seemed somewhat nervous.
"Jiang Che, long time no see"
"You already said that earlier," Jiang Che laughed lightly.
His eyes inadvertently gave Wang Yanran a once-over.
Her figure was quite impressive, though he wondered how she maintained it.
"Where are you looking!" Wang Yanran's face reddened slightly. As a police officer, how could she not notice Jiang Che's gaze?
She had seen such looks in many men's eyes before, but surprisingly, she didn't find Jiang Che's gaze unpleasant.
Actually, Wang Yanran was also feeling emotional, as her impression of Jiang Che was still stuck on that little boy who used to follow her around.
...
Ye Mengyao held an invitation card, standing near the Jiang Family villa area with a complex expression.
"I wonder if Jiang Che will come to my birthday party?"
"He seems to really dislike me..."
Ye Mengyao bit her lip, but given the relationship between the Ye Family and Jiang Family, Jiang Che should give her face, right?
After all, she had attended his previous birthday parties, so he surely wouldn't refuse now.
Actually, Ye Mengyao's feelings toward Jiang Che had become very complicated. She only wanted to treat him as a brother... but seeing him ignore her made her feel empty and lost.
Jiang Che must still be angry with her, she planned to gather her courage at her birthday party... to respond to Jiang Che's feelings!
Thinking of this, a shy blush appeared on Ye Mengyao's pretty face.
It's really embarrassing!
But soon, a familiar voice reached her ears.
Looking up, the expression on her face instantly froze.
Jiang Che walked out of the Jiang Family villa with a woman, chatting and laughing.
Although the distance was quite far, she could still see... that woman was truly beautiful.
It was a mature beauty that didn't belong to her age group, and her impressive figure immediately made her feel inferior.
For some reason, when Ye Mengyao saw that scene, it really stung her eyes, and jealousy welled up inside her like an overturned jar of vinegar.
So she secretly followed behind them.
Until they got into Jiang Che's Maybach.
......

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
