Jiang Che possessed the divine skill of "Heart-Reading," and Chen Ningshuang's little thoughts were laid bare before him.
"Heh—"
This woman, though she appeared cold and aloof, was actually quite easy to win over.
For a young genius like her, all you needed was to be stronger than her. If you were stronger... she would fall for you!
Just like the female CEOs in many "son-in-law" novels, they always seem like unattainable flowers on a high peak. You, the son-in-law, might have been a devoted follower in their family for two or three years, but they would never like your submissive demeanor.
They only like strong, assertive people!
"Who are you?"
Chen Ningshuang had already taken an interest in Jiang Che and walked up to him.
"I'm just a passerby~"
Chen Ningshuang: "..."
Jiang Che shrugged. He couldn't exactly say... "I came here to find you? I want to sleep with you, cuckold Ye Liangchen, and piss off your brother Chen Hao?"
If he said that... he'd definitely get beaten up!
Then, Jiang Che turned his gaze to Director Wang, who was trembling in the corner.
"Your crew needs actors, right?"
Director Wang nodded shakily.
"I think this young lady is quite suitable for period dramas."
Jiang Che knew full well that Chen Ningshuang was curious about him, and her competitive spirit had been ignited.
Director Wang blinked a couple of times and instantly understood—Jiang Che must have taken a liking to this girl and wanted to make her a big star.
This kind of thing was all too common in the entertainment industry.
A wealthy man takes a fancy to some small-time celebrity, spends money to make them famous, and then the once-adored star becomes their plaything... Many rich people love playing this game.
However, Director Wang was wrong. Jiang Che just wanted to see Chen Ningshuang in a Hanfu outfit.
It would definitely be stunning!
But Chen Ningshuang clearly had no interest in acting. She continued to stare intently at Jiang Che, as if trying to see through him.
"Are you a martial artist?"
The girl spoke sparingly.
"Guess?" Jiang Che replied with a teasing smile.
Now that he knew what Chen Ningshuang wanted... the initiative was in his hands.
Chen Ningshuang's eyes were calm as water. She took a step forward and casually struck out with a palm!
The strike carried a trace of Dark Force—terrifyingly powerful!
You might think Jiang Che would reveal his true strength to catch Chen Ningshuang's attention?
Wrong!
"Ah—"
Jiang Che was sent flying!
The onlookers were stunned.
A martial artist?
This delicate-looking girl was actually a martial artist?
Martial artists weren't exactly a secret in Dragon Country. Even ordinary people knew about them, though they rarely encountered them in daily life. In fact, there was even a grandmaster-level martial artist who had started a short video account and amassed over 50 million followers.
"You—"
Chen Ningshuang was shocked. She couldn't understand why her seemingly casual palm strike had sent this man flying.
She had only wanted to test Jiang Che, but how could this have happened?
Had her senses failed her?
Was this man actually just an ordinary person?
She began to feel uneasy. Although the force behind her strike was light for her, she was a mid-level Dark Force martial artist!
A strike like that would be trouble even for a skilled martial artist, let alone an ordinary person.
"Call the police! Quick, call the police! A martial artist is assaulting someone!"
Director Wang's face turned pale. This was Young Master Jiang!
If something happened to him on his turf, things would spiral out of control.
Though he had some clout in the entertainment industry, he was nothing in the face of real capital. Just having Jiang Che remember his name was enough for him to brag about.
He never expected this woman to be so bold as to attack Jiang Che!
After a moment of stunned silence, Chen Ningshuang seemed to want to explain herself, but the words stuck in her throat.
Looking at the young man lying on the ground, she felt a pang of guilt.
She crouched down beside Jiang Che, and a faint, pleasant fragrance wafted over.
Jiang Che, seizing the opportunity, casually grabbed Chen Ningshuang's delicate hand, which felt like it had been soaked in medicinal baths for years.
Ahem!
"You—" Chen Ningshuang's face flushed slightly, but she resisted the urge to pull her hand away.
"I caught you—you're the one who hit me—"
Chen Ningshuang: "..."
Not long after, the police—officers and officers—arrived!
As luck would have it, the team was led by Wang Yanran.
After Wang Laiyun was reinstated, Wang Yanran had naturally been transferred back to her original position from the traffic police unit.
"What happened? What's going on here?"
"I'm an innocent passerby, innocently knocked to the ground by her," Jiang Che pointed at the bewildered Chen Ningshuang.
Wang Yanran: "..."
Wang Yanran, of course, didn't believe Jiang Che's one-sided account. She glanced at the stunningly beautiful Chen Ningshuang and shot Jiang Che a glare.
She knew exactly what this rascal was up to. Just look at him—he didn't look like a victim at all!
[You little rascal, you're definitely playing some weird game I don't know about.]
[You even said you wanted to marry me, and not even three days later, you've already set your sights on someone new.]
Jiang Che really wanted to say that not only had he found a new target, but he'd also won over Little Baijie in those three days.
But of course, he couldn't say that out loud.
Wang Yanran walked up to Chen Ningshuang, her expression cold.
Chen Ningshuang was visibly flustered. She was just a girl who had recently come down from the mountains—how could she have anticipated this?
Her casual palm strike had landed her in trouble with the law? But her personality was icy and reserved... she wasn't good with words, and in this situation, she simply froze.
She then pulled out a small booklet from her pocket. "This is my identification."
Wang Yanran took the document, and a flicker of shock crossed her eyes.
"A mid-level Dark Force martial artist?"
Once a martial artist's strength surpassed a certain level, they had to register with the authorities to enter the secular world. Just like Dong'er... she was also registered. Otherwise, things would quickly spiral out of control.
But Wang Yanran's shock quickly turned to anger.
"You're a mid-level Dark Force martial artist... and you attacked an unarmed person? Did you want to kill him? What did he do to you?"
Wang Yanran felt a surge of inexplicable anger. Though she knew Jiang Che had some martial arts skills, this was a mid-level Dark Force martial artist. One strike from her could have killed Jiang Che—it was a miracle he was still alive.
She couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.
"Hands up!"
Wang Yanran pulled out handcuffs and promptly cuffed Chen Ningshuang.
Have you ever seen a cold, beautiful woman being cuffed and forcibly taken away?
Jiang Che had now witnessed it. Things had slightly exceeded his expectations.
But this was fine—it would help temper Chen Ningshuang's arrogance!
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!
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
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.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
