What Young Master Jiang That's my son-in-law, Bai Tianlong

Ye Liangchen pondered over the words his father had just spoken, his fists involuntarily tightening.

"Though Chen Ningshuang has broken off our engagement, she is still the woman I have my eyes on!"

"A woman who has been loved by a lion... how could she possibly be interested in a loser?"

[Ding! The host has attempted to show off in front of no one, resulting in a failed attempt. Penalty: 5 days of internal energy deducted.]

Ye Liangchen: "..."

Damn stupid system, you're the real idiot here. If it weren't for the fact that you're still somewhat useful, I would have kicked you to the curb long ago.

Ye Liangchen cursed the system in his heart.

There was only one thought in his mind now—

Show off! Show off! And show off some more!

Ever since he had bound himself to this "showing-off system" three days ago, he had been showing off like the wind, with it always by his side. In just three days, he had gained over a month's worth of internal energy, boosting his strength significantly.

Although sometimes his attempts at showing off backfired and he was penalized, the overall gains were quite substantial.

It was more than ten times more efficient than just quietly cultivating on his own!

As long as he kept showing off enough, breaking through to the Grandmaster level would only be a matter of time.

However, he still felt a bit depressed. After all, after so many days of showing off, his inspiration was starting to run dry.

......

Morning.

In the Jiang Family Villa.

"Shuang'er! Help me get dressed!"

Jiang Che, lying in bed, called out for his personal maid.

Chen Ningshuang, her face cold and stiff, reluctantly walked into the bedroom.

"Oh? Shuang'er, why do you look so worn out?"

Jiang Che teased the fairy-like girl.

Chen Ningshuang, dressed in a Hanfu, truly lived up to the title of a fairy, resembling a celestial being who had descended to the mortal world.

"You..."

Chen Ningshuang spoke through gritted teeth. She glanced at Yu Wan'er, who was still fast asleep, and had already cursed Jiang Che countless times in her heart.

"Alright, Shuang'er, help me wash up!"

Jiang Che put on the airs of a master.

The genius young lady of the Chen family had never served anyone before, let alone a strange man.

She fumbled awkwardly, her heart filled with disdain.

If looks could kill, Jiang Che would have died countless times by now.

"Alright... you're so clumsy. If you can't even serve someone properly, what use are you?"

Jiang Che's words shattered Chen Ningshuang's composure.

[Bastard, you scum! If I can't serve you properly, why don't you find someone else?]

[You're a grown man, yet you still need someone to serve you? Why don't you go home and suckle at your mother's breast?]

Jiang Che was in high spirits. A genius young lady like Chen Ningshuang... she needed to be thoroughly put in her place.

After Jiang Che left, Chen Ningshuang's eyes turned red.

Unknowingly, the usually cold and aloof Chen Ningshuang began to shed silent tears.

......

The Bai family had been in a frenzy lately.

Their only young lady had disappeared for over a week, and the most panicked was undoubtedly Bai Jie's father, Bai Tianlong.

"What? Xiao Jie has gone to the Jiang family to work as a maid?"

Bai Tianlong was completely stunned upon hearing Aunt Wang's words.

Aunt Wang sighed helplessly, "Master, it's true! I think you can also see how Miss feels about Young Master Jiang... So she took it upon herself to go to the Jiang family and even told me not to say anything..."

Bai Tianlong's heart sank.

He was well aware of his daughter's feelings for Jiang Che. Her bedroom walls were covered with secretly taken photos of him—she was a full-blown infatuated girl.

But he was also helpless. What was the status of their Bai family? And what was Jiang Che's status?

The phrase "marrying within one's social class" was not just an empty saying.

His daughter and Jiang Che were destined to never be together. Although Bai Jie was indeed beautiful... Jiang Che was probably just toying with her, and behind the scenes, he was likely mocking the Bai family for overestimating themselves!

After all, the upper-class circles were always chaotic, and he knew that all too well.

"I told you to keep an eye on Miss! Is this how you do it?"

Bai Tianlong was furious, and the consequences were severe—Aunt Wang was fired on the spot.

"Master, please calm down. I've had someone investigate Young Master Jiang. He has many girls around him, including a poor but beautiful school belle from Shilan School... It seems like Young Master Jiang doesn't turn anyone away."

Aunt Wang spoke anxiously, clearly having done her research.

Bai Tianlong grew even angrier upon hearing this. "That's even worse! This just proves that Jiang Che is only playing around and would never take responsibility."

But Aunt Wang's next words left Bai Tianlong speechless.

"And there's also the young lady of the Ye family, Ye Mengyao! She often stays overnight at the Jiang Family Villa with other girls."

Bai Tianlong: "..."

Ye Mengyao of the Ye family... he naturally knew her, and that was precisely why he was even more shocked!

Both the Ye and Jiang families were top-tier families in Hangcheng, and Ye Mengyao was a true heiress.

This... this couldn't be possible!

"Master Bai, so I believe Miss Bai's actions are completely justified. If Miss can win Young Master Jiang's favor... our Bai family would also gain a powerful ally."

Bai Tianlong glared at Aunt Wang. "Am I the kind of person who would sell out his own daughter? She's my only child!"

Aunt Wang panicked. "Master... Jiang Che is..."

Bai Tianlong snorted coldly, cutting her off.

"What Jiang Che? He's my future son-in-law!"

Aunt Wang: "..."

What they didn't know was... little Bai Jie had already been devoured, leaving nothing behind.

...

"Shuang'er, be good. Today, I'll take you to meet an old acquaintance!"

Jiang Che took Chen Ningshuang's hand.

The close contact made Chen Ningshuang's skin crawl. Compared to Ye Mengyao, she was the one with a true aversion to men.

Having spent long periods in cultivation within the Chen family, she detested any form of physical contact with men. Excessive contact always made her skin crawl.

"An... old acquaintance?"

"That's right! Someone you know very well!"

Jiang Che snapped his fingers, his smile gradually turning mischievous.

It had been a while since he last saw Chen Hao. He heard the guy had gone to work as a security guard at the entrance of his family's company?

Well... now he was technically his brother-in-law, since Chen Ningshuang was completely in his grasp now.

Chen Ningshuang would be the next Yu Wan'er, though... she definitely wouldn't be as favored as Wan'er.
