Bai Jie felt deeply upset.
Except for herself... all the girls who had been involved with Jiang Che had received bracelets.
Although the bracelets weren't particularly valuable, they were a form of recognition from Jiang Che's mother.
And among all the girls... only she didn't have a bracelet.
It hurt so much that she wanted to cry. Even though she had been the one to climb into Jiang Che's bed, the feeling of being ignored was truly unbearable.
But just as she was wallowing in her sorrow, a figure appeared in front of her and took her small hands into his.
"What's wrong? Why didn't you step forward when my mom was handing out bracelets to her daughters-in-law? Don’t you want to join our Jiang family?"
As soon as Jiang Che said this, Bai Jie's head snapped up. Though she was wearing a mask, her shocked eyes were impossible to hide.
Jiang Che sighed helplessly.
Ah, he had wanted to keep playing the "masked girl" game for a while longer, but if he continued like this... Bai Jie might just break.
Crying secretly under the covers?
No, that wouldn’t do. He could mess with her before, but now that she was his woman, it wouldn’t be fun anymore.
Jiang Che's large hand gently rested by Bai Jie's ear, brushing through her hair.
Bai Jie seemed to realize something and lowered her head.
Jiang Che reached out and gently removed the girl's mask, revealing a pure yet alluring face, her eyes still red as she bit her thin lips.
Bai Jie's heart trembled, feeling as if she were being publicly humiliated.
Her fervent yet humble love was laid bare before Jiang Che. She knew her love for him was twisted and ugly.
After all, what kind of girl secretly stalks a boy for six years? The photos she had taken of Jiang Che filled a 128GB USB drive to the brim.
This kind of love... could only be described as obsessive!
"Oh? Bai Jie?"
Jiang Che feigned surprise.
The other girls in the room also turned their gazes toward her. Qin Qiaoqiao's eyes widened in shock, her mouth slightly agape.
"Xiao Jie? It’s you?"
Qin Qiaoqiao felt a mix of emotions. She never would have guessed... that this little maid was the same girl she had recently befriended!
No wonder... Bai Jie had suddenly become so close to her, always subtly probing for information about Jiang Che.
So... her target was Jiang Che all along!
This made Qin Qiaoqiao feel a little hurt, not out of jealousy... because if it were jealousy, she would have been green with envy by now.
Wuwuwu~ Her feelings had been deceived! What friendship? What sisterhood? It was all a lie!
...
"Jiang... Jiang Che, I'm sorry! I... I didn’t mean to deceive you."
In the shadows, Bai Jie's love was bold and pathological. But in front of Jiang Che... she became deeply insecure.
How could Jiang Che be angry? He gently brushed away the strands of hair from her forehead.
"If you like me... why hide it?"
"If loving me makes you feel exhausted, you don’t have to love me."
Bai Jie quickly shook her head upon hearing Jiang Che's words.
Love? How could she not love him? She was obsessed, he was the only light in her life!
"Then, welcome to the family!"
Jiang Che gave Bai Jie a light hug and then introduced her to Ye Mengyao and Yu Wan'er.
Yu Wan'er narrowed her eyes, her back teeth grinding as she whispered into Ye Mengyao's ear.
"Yaoyao, did you see that? Jiang Che's flirting skills are terrifying. Is this how he tricked you back then?"
After the "evil mother-in-law" left, Yu Wan'er instantly transformed from a well-behaved girl into a mischievous brat.
Ye Mengyao bit her thin lip. She had long known that she had been manipulated by Jiang Che, but she accepted it willingly!
Bai Jie's heart raced, feeling as if she were in a dream.
Though she hadn’t gained the approval of Jiang Che's mother, she had finally won his love. The overwhelming joy nearly made her faint.
"You don’t need to wear a mask anymore. Of course, if you want... I can keep playing the chase game with you."
Bai Jie threw herself into Jiang Che's arms, restless and agitated.
How bold! Had her obsessive side fully unleashed?
"Ahem... that won’t be necessary."
He was an abstinent heartthrob, after all. How could he let an obsessive girl take the lead?
Bai Jie lowered her head, her face flushed. Jiang Che had already blocked her thoughts with his "mind-reading" ability.
......
"Jiang Che! Was what your mother said earlier... true?"
After some thought, Chen Ningshuang stepped forward, her beautiful eyes fixed on Jiang Che's.
"What’s true or false?" Jiang Che pretended to be confused.
"Are you really at the Transform Force level?"
"Haha... do I look like a Transform Force expert? Didn’t you say I was a loser?" Jiang Che teased.
"Of course, you can test me like you did last time!"
"If you attack me, I won’t say a word. I’ll just make sure to bring a bigger gift to the Chen Family Village banquet."
Chen Ningshuang: "..."
She was seething with anger!
But all she could do was glare. This guy, though just a teenager, was infuriating beyond belief!
It made her liver ache.
"Hmph, loser! Other than threatening me with your family... what else can you do?"
Chen Ningshuang shot Jiang Che a fierce glare, utterly disgusted by his shameless behavior.
"If I have power, why not use it? What a ridiculous thing to say!"
Jiang Che smirked disdainfully, then turned his gaze to the faint blush on her cheeks.
"Huh... did it hurt when my mom slapped you?"
"None of your business, you shameless scoundrel! I’ll never give in to you people!"
Chen Ningshuang's pride flared up, her chest heaving as tears involuntarily fell.
It was too much. She, a Transform Force expert, had to stay by this loser’s side every day, helping him wash and dress, constantly enduring his humiliation.
Who knew when this beast might lose control and take her innocence? She couldn’t even raise a hand to resist.
And on top of that, she had to endure his mother’s abuse!
It was too stifling. The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.
But Jiang Che, the demon king, still refused to let her go.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
