Ye Mengyao was terrified.
Ever since she had come to terms with her feelings for Jiang Che, she had been trying to mend her relationship with him.
She kept encouraging herself... as long as she was sincere enough, she was sure she could win Jiang Che back.
Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Ye Mengyao looked again and found that Jiang Che was the only one standing by the window.
"Could it be... that my obsession with Jiang Che is too deep, and I'm hallucinating?"
It must be!
Although Jiang Che seemed to be getting closer to Yu Wan'er recently, she still knew her best friend well.
She had already claimed her ownership of Jiang Che, so how could Yu Wan'er possibly do something so underhanded behind her back?
Absolutely! Not! Possible!
......
"Ahem... why are you pushing me?"
In the bedroom, Jiang Che sat in a chair, fiddling with a small butterfly hairclip.
Yu Wan'er's face was full of anxiety.
"Oh no, oh no! I'm doomed! Sister Mengyao saw me!"
"I'm going to be ruined because of you! What will Sister Mengyao think of me?"
"Hmph, it's all your fault, you wicked guy!"
The little loli immediately threw the blame on Jiang Che.
However, Jiang Che wouldn't indulge her. He pulled out his trusty phone again, "I think you seem to be..."
"Pervert! You disgusting pervert!"
Yu Wan'er was quite familiar with Jiang Che by now. Although she was a bit angry and helpless, she seemed to have gotten used to Jiang Che's perversion.
Soon, a familiar voice came from downstairs. Ye Mengyao's family was chatting with Jiang Che's parents.
"Jiang Che, what should we do? If Ye Mengyao finds out about me..."
Yu Wan'er was getting anxious and even prepared to hide in a wardrobe.
"Jiang Che, cover for me later. Ye Mengyao is so naive, she's easy to fool... Your words will work."
Jiang Che crossed his arms, "Why should I help you?"
Yu Wan'er bared her teeth, "Hmph! You've already taken advantage of me, so helping me once won't hurt, will it?"
"Hey, I paid for it! It's clearly marked. What are you playing at now?"
"Please, Brother Jiang Che~~~" The little loli started to act cute, hugging Jiang Che's arm.
Honestly, there was probably no man who could resist a little loli's coquettishness.
"Cut the act."
"Stay here. I'll go downstairs first. Whether you're discovered or not... that's up to your luck!"
"Oh~"
The little loli found a wardrobe to hide in. She didn't want to do this, but Ye Mengyao was now chasing after Jiang Che... Her flirting with Jiang Che now was essentially stealing the wall.
If Ye Mengyao found out, she would definitely have a rift with her.
......
In the living room on the first floor.
Ye Mengyao's parents were chatting with Jiang Che's parents.
"We are truly grateful. If it weren't for Little Che... Mengyao would have been in danger."
"Oh, no, no. Our son is upright. He would have saved any classmate."
Ye Changkong could clearly sense the distance from Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yunli.
It seemed they were deliberately trying to draw a line.
Especially Jiang Yunli's gaze towards Ye Mengyao carried an inexplicable disgust; this girl had been leading her son on for years. In Jiang Yunli's mind, Ye Mengyao had long been labeled as a green tea bitch.
Ye Mengyao lowered her head, not daring to speak. It seemed Jiang Che's mother didn't like her.
"Brother Jiang Yuan, is Little Che not at home?" Ye Changkong asked.
"Oh... Little Che is studying upstairs..."
Just as Jiang Yuan was about to continue, a figure slowly descended the stairs.
"No need for thanks."
Jiang Che once again adopted his aloof demeanor and slowly walked into the center of the living room.
His gaze swept over Ye Mengyao and landed on Ye Changkong and his wife.
He didn't say anything, yet it felt like he had said everything.
"Little Che, we're not just here to thank you. Our daughter, Mengyao, really likes you... You've also pursued our daughter before, and there was mutual affection. If we could become in-laws..."
Ye Mengyao's mother directly stated their purpose: to arrange a marriage.
Jiang Yunli snorted coldly, "Your daughter didn't even look at my son before. Why are you talking about marriage now? The doors of the Jiang family aren't so easily entered."
Jiang Yunli glared fiercely at Ye Mengyao, looking like a typical evil mother-in-law.
Ye Mengyao was on the verge of tears. The atmosphere became awkward, and Ye Mengyao's family was in a difficult position.
Although they were furious, since Jiang Che had saved Ye Mengyao, they had to remain polite.
Ye Changkong cleared his throat, "Children's matters... let them solve it themselves, don't you think... Little Che?"
All eyes were now on Jiang Che.
If Jiang Che spoke up now... expressing his fondness for Ye Mengyao, the young lady might soon become his fiancée.
If he refused, Ye Mengyao would be utterly devastated. After all, being rejected in front of both families was akin to a slap in the face. Girls value their dignity too.
【Ding! The Ye family has proposed an engagement. Triggering a villain's choice.】
【Choice 1: Accept happily, becoming the Ye family's son-in-law. Gain 100 favor points from Ye Mengyao and obtain the title 'Husband of Another'.】
【Choice 2: Reject decisively, humiliating the Ye family and insulting Ye Mengyao. Ye Mengyao's favor points -80, obtain the reward: Three years of internal strength.】
【Choice 3: Play up the acting, let everyone guess your attitude. Gain 10 favor points from everyone, obtain the title reward: 'Master of the Harem'.】
The villain's choice was triggered again!
Jiang Che considered the three options. Choice 1 would grant him full favor points from Ye Mengyao, but the title reward was too disgusting.
【Husband of Another: When wearing this title, Ye Mengyao will be utterly devoted to you, but you will no longer be able to gain favor from other destined heroines.】
Trash, not even a dog would use it!
As a qualified pervert, how could he only take one cup from the three thousand weak waters?
Although Ye Mengyao was alluring, anyone who brought her home would probably lose twenty years of their life.
But Jiang Che wasn't an ordinary person!
He wasn't a child anymore!

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her.
