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!
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
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!"
