"Feifei, why are you here?"
Jiang Che sat in the back seat of the car with Qin Qiaoqiao and Ye Mengyao, his left arm around Qin Qiaoqiao and his right arm around Ye Mengyao.
Gu Lingfei took off her sunglasses, shook her hair, and exuded an air of confidence and charm.
"What? Can't I come?"
Her voice carried a hint of resentment.
"Of course, you can..." Jiang Che shrugged.
"That's more like it~"
Gu Lingfei was quite familiar with Jiang Che and didn't immediately bombard him with questions about his exam results like other parents might.
"By the way, Xiao Che, there were so many reporters at the school gate earlier. If they caught you on camera, it might lead to a lot of media coverage and damage your reputation..."
Jiang Che waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry about them."
Gu Lingfei was slightly taken aback but then nodded gently.
...
Soon, Jiang Che became famous!
The video of his interview spread rapidly online, creating an explosive impact.
"Damn, this guy is so full of himself? I’ve been struggling with exams all year, and he’s over here saying it was easy?"
"Why? I’ve been single for 18 years, and this guy is surrounded by girls?"
"Obviously, it’s all staged. Every year there’s someone like this trying to create hype. Those girls are probably part of the script to build up his 'genius' image, and that luxury car is probably rented. He’ll probably start live-streaming and selling stuff soon~"
"The person above makes a good point."
"Good point my ass! You’re not from Hangcheng, are you? That’s Young Master Jiang. Do you even know who he is? The only son of Hangcheng’s richest man, a billionaire heir. And that elegant girl next to him? That’s Ye Mengyao, a super-rich heiress."
"I’m a student at Shilan School, and I can confirm... Jiang Che’s grades are top-notch, a true academic god!"
In no time, Jiang Che became an internet sensation!
Those who had doubted him before quickly fell silent.
Meanwhile, at the Jiang family villa, Jiang Che leaned back on the sofa, eating red grapes fed to him by Gu Lingfei, scrolling through his phone... feeling quite pleased with himself.
With his influence, Jiang Che could have easily suppressed the reporters' stories, but he chose not to, letting the online buzz grow instead.
"Hmm~ I think I can understand the mindset of those 'chosen ones' who thrive on exposure. It’s pretty satisfying."
Jiang Che had read plenty of novels about protagonists who hid their true identities—whether they were billionaires or immortal cultivators—only to reveal themselves at the climax, leaving readers on edge. But the authors always dragged it out until the very end, and by then, readers were already fed up and ready to drop the story.
"Ha! I even wrote an essay called 'On Teachers.' I bet it’s going to blow up."
"So, what does that make me? Taking the path of the chosen one and leaving no room for them?"
"Keh keh keh—"
Jiang Che laughed heartily.
"Xiao Che, how do you think you did on the exams?"
Gu Lingfei sat cross-legged on the sofa, wearing only a nightgown that revealed her smooth legs. Her perfect arched feet and delicate toes were tempting to touch, and her slightly plump thighs invited further exploration, sparking endless imagination.
"Hmm... probably the top scorer?"
Jiang Che wasn’t entirely sure, especially with Shen Yu around. Having overheard her thoughts, he knew Shen Yu wouldn’t hold back this time.
Shen Yu’s academic system had a mission: to become the national top scorer!
The reward? 100,000 academic points.
"Oh, Xiao Che, if you do become the top scorer, your parents will be thrilled," Gu Lingfei said with a gentle smile.
Only Jiang Che could see this softer side of the usually aloof CEO.
Jiang Che chuckled and pulled one of Gu Lingfei’s legs closer. "Feifei, if I really do become the top scorer, don’t you think you should reward me?"
Gu Lingfei glanced at him sideways. "Isn’t this the reward?"
Well, now it was Jiang Che’s turn to be speechless!
Seeing Jiang Che at a loss for words, Gu Lingfei covered her mouth and laughed, her shoulders shaking. She lifted her foot and used her toes to pinch Jiang Che’s fingers.
Jiang Che pulled his hand away in mock disgust. "Don’t give me your foot fungus."
Gu Lingfei was visibly annoyed by Jiang Che’s teasing.
"Ugh! You’re the one with foot fungus! Look at my feet, my legs... these are jade feet, got it? You’re the one with foot fungus!"
"Yeah, yeah, I’m the warden now, the Greek god in charge of jade feet!"
Just then, Yu Wan'er returned home.
The little loli’s expression made it clear that her exams hadn’t gone well.
"Oh? Wan'er’s back? How’d it go?"
Hearing Jiang Che’s voice, Yu Wan'er bared her teeth in frustration.
"It’s all your fault, you pervert, you scumbag! I barely slept these past few days... How do you think it went?"
Who knows what she went through during the exam? During the English listening section... she actually fell asleep!
It was a total disgrace!
After years of hard work, she had never fallen asleep during an exam... but on the most important one, she dozed off.
Although the invigilator woke her up, she still lost over ten points!
Hearing Yu Wan'er’s complaint, Jiang Che couldn’t help but laugh.
Of course, he didn’t take her words too seriously.
Even if she lost those points, Yu Wan'er could still score around 700. That’s the confidence of a little southern potato!
The little loli stomped into the house, her small backpack bouncing as her twin pigtails swayed adorably.
"Jiang Che, I’m warning you, don’t you dare touch me again!"
The little chili pepper was fired up, clearly genuinely upset.
Gu Lingfei gave Jiang Che a look. "Go comfort her. She’ll calm down if you just talk to her."
Jiang Che chuckled. "Comfort her? I know her too well."
Jiang Che understood Yu Wan'er, the little tsundere, all too well. Unless she was crying with red eyes, her anger was just an act. If he tried to comfort her, she’d immediately take advantage and climb all over him.
Literally, climb all over him!
[Ugh! Scumbag, how dare you think you can be the top scorer? Go look in the mirror and see if you’re even worthy!]
[I hate you, Jiang Che~~~ I’ll bite you! Kick you!]
After storming into her room, Yu Wan'er threw her backpack aside and started punching and kicking the big teddy bear on her bed. She didn’t dare challenge Jiang Che directly, so this was her way of venting.
Meanwhile, Jiang Che gently stroked his chin.
Now that the academic pressure was over, all the other girls were under his control... except for Shen Yu, the chosen one.
To be honest, Shen Yu was really giving Jiang Che a headache.
