"Ah——"
Jiang Che stretched out his hand and gently pinched Qiangwei's little nose.
"In two more months, we'll be graduating. I plan to arrange for you to join us in campus... to experience student life in Dragon Country. What do you think?"
Qiangwei tilted her head, seemingly deep in thought.
While she longed for campus life, her love for Jiang Che was deeper. If going to school meant being separated from him... she definitely wouldn't want that.
"Jiang Che gege, will we be apart?"
Jiang Che smiled helplessly and placed a hand on the girl's head. "No, I can promise you'll see me every night."
Hearing his promise, Qiangwei smiled brightly, wrapping her arms around Jiang Che's, looking inseparable.
Bai Jie, nearby, felt a complex mix of emotions. It was foreseeable... with Jiang Che's grades, he would undoubtedly be admitted to the most prestigious university in Dragon Country. Her own grades, however, lagged a few dozen points behind his.
Although Jiang Che had assured her he wouldn't abandon them, Bai Jie didn't want to be burdensome to him.
"Um... Jiang Che gege, I want to go home tomorrow, to review..."
Her words were clear. Staying with Jiang Che... she couldn't focus on studying. All day, her thoughts were on how to get closer to him, and at night, there was no time left for studying. Her mind was filled with... well, nonsense. Maintaining her grades without decline was already an achievement.
Jiang Che chuckled lightly. "Of course."
...
Bai Jie returned home.
As soon as she entered, she sensed the unusual atmosphere in the Bai residence.
Something was different from before.
Bai Tianlong sat on the sofa, his hair visibly graying.
The greatest sorrow in life... was learning of one's son's death in midlife. Before knowing the details... he could still cling to hope, deceive himself. But now, even that was impossible!
"Xiaojie? You're back?"
Seeing Bai Jie, Bai Tianlong's aged face finally showed a trace of relief.
"Father..."
Bai Jie lowered her head. Though she had no sense of belonging to the Bai family, she couldn't deny... Bai Tianlong had treated her well.
"Daughter, Aunt Wang told me about you... staying with classmates is fine."
Bai Tianlong, of course, knew better. His little daughter had, without a doubt, given herself away!
But now... he wanted to know if his elder daughter, who he hadn't seen in over a decade, had also been taken advantage of by Jiang Che.
Bai Jie's face flushed slightly at his words. Staying with classmates...
Well, yes, they did "play," and it was quite enjoyable. But could she tell her father that?
"Father, you know I've always liked Jiang Che gege, and he treats me well~"
Bai Tianlong and Bai Jie talked much more after that. Hearing that his daughter hadn't been mistreated by Jiang Che... he felt much relieved.
Being part of the upper class, he knew well... many wealthy men had peculiar fetishes, a penchant for tormenting women wasn't rare.
Though he wished to latch onto the Jiang Family's influence, if it meant sacrificing his daughter's happiness... he'd rather not!
After circling around for over ten minutes, Bai Tianlong finally steered the conversation to the main point.
Daughter... the one you mentioned, Bai Qiangwei... does she also have the family name Bai?
Clearly, Bai Tianlong was probing.
Bai Jie, however, knew Qiangwei was her biological sister, as Jiang Che had done a blood relationship test for them.
"Father... Qiangwei jiejie is actually... my biological sister."
Bai Jie was smart. Why would her father suddenly be so curious about a stranger?
Clearly, he had discovered something!
As expected, upon hearing Bai Jie's words... Bai Tianlong froze.
"What? You know Qiangwei is your real sister?"
His voice trembled slightly.
He was the last to know? How absurd!
Bai Jie nodded gently.
"Father, Jiang Che gege helped Qiangwei jie and me do a blood test. It confirmed we are biological sisters. Qiangwei jie is likely the eldest daughter of the Bai family from over ten years ago..."
Saying this, she took out a blood test report from her pocket, given to her by Jiang Che, which she had kept carefully.
Bai Tianlong's hands shook as he took the report.
After reading carefully, he confirmed... Qiangwei was indeed his elder daughter.
"Bai Wei... eh, no... is your sister okay?"
Bai Jie nodded lightly. "Jiang Che gege really likes Qiangwei jie. Today, he even took us out to play~"
Mentioning Jiang Che, Bai Jie's eyes lit up.
Bai Tianlong: "......"
This was bad. His worst fear had come true.
Jiang Che was truly shameless, having taken both his daughters.
But what could he do? The Bai Family was only a second-tier family, unable to challenge the Jiang Family!
Moreover, his level was too low to be aware of the ancient martial world, unaware that Jiang Che was also backed by the Jiang Family, a colossal force in the ancient martial world.
"Daughter... I want to see your sister. Can you help convey this to Young Master Jiang?"
Bai Tianlong felt utterly humiliated. As a father... wanting to see his daughter required him to beg someone else?
Bai Jie shook her head, her expression helpless.
"Father, I came home only to study. I want to enter the same school as Jiang Che gege."
"You don't have to worry. Qiangwei jie is living well with Jiang Che gege. He even plans to arrange for Qiangwei jie to attend school..."
Bai Tianlong: "......"
What about me? What about this old father? I don't even get to see my own daughter?
Don't be so cruel! I've already lost a son!
"Daughter... your sister has suffered outside all these years. I——"
Bai Tianlong had many things he wanted to say to Bai Wei, but they stuck in his throat. He could only wait until he saw her in person to express them.
Bai Jie glanced at Bai Tianlong, then said no more, turning to enter her room.
Opening her schoolbag, it was empty of books, only containing a meticulously preserved bedsheet and several men's underwear.
Clearly, Bai Jie, despite gaining Jiang Che's favor, hadn't forgotten her... habits.
Bai Jie spread the sheet on her bed. The spotless white sheet bore a striking red plum blossom, causing her cheeks to flush.
She then picked up an underwear, her gaze becoming resolute. She must create a miracle in these two months, catching up to Jiang Che gege and entering the same school as him.

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
