Jiang Che's Fury, Shen Yu's System Gets Renamed (Bonus Update 4/4)

Jiang Yunli glanced at Shen Yu, blinking her big eyes in confusion.

This daughter-in-law... she'd never met her before!

Oh no, she'd been in such a rush today that she forgot to bring a gift for the new daughter-in-law.

But she was naturally sociable, a true extrovert through and through.

With a smile, she walked over to Shen Yu and took the girl's delicate hand.

"Are you pregnant? How many months along?"

Shen Yu blinked twice, feeling the warmth of Jiang Yunli's hand—it was like a long-lost maternal love.

Her parents had died in a car accident when she was very young...

She rarely spoke much in daily life, but with Jiang Yunli, she unexpectedly initiated the conversation.

"Auntie, not months... just a little over three weeks."

"Just over three weeks? When I was pregnant with Xiao Che, we found out in less than a month too..."

Jiang Yunli always knew how to keep the conversation going, leaving Shen Yu at a loss for words.

What happens when an introvert meets an extrovert?

"My goodness! You scored 749 on the college entrance exam? A genius! And a STEM girl too? That’s incredible!"

"......"

"Don’t worry, Xiao Yu'er. Once you’re part of our Jiang family, you’re family. I’m Jiang Che’s mother, so naturally, I’m your mother too—and the baby’s grandma... From now on, we’re all your family."

Jiang Yunli’s words left Shen Yu momentarily dazed.

"Family..."

Ever since her parents passed away, the word "family" had almost ceased to exist for her.

But now, it had reappeared!

Not just in name—she also had a baby growing inside her, her own flesh and blood...

This feeling was indescribable, adding splashes of color to her once-pale heart.

Jiang Che naturally heard Shen Yu’s inner thoughts and noticed the change in her. He just wanted to give his mom a thumbs-up: Damn, she’s good!

"That’s right, Xiao Yu'er. If Jiang Che ever dares to bully you, just tell me. I’ll make sure to give that brat a good beating for you." Jiang Yunli rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to defend her daughter-in-law.

Yu Wan'er, Ye Mengyao, and the others: "......"

This scene felt all too familiar.

This so-called 'perfect mother-in-law' was utterly obsessed with her son. If you actually believed her words, you’d be a fool.

Meanwhile, Jiang Che had stepped out with Jiang Yuan to discuss business matters—mostly about the company’s restructuring, but nothing too significant.

...

"Xiao Che, be good to Shen Yu, alright? Don’t make her jealous."

Before leaving, Jiang Yunli stopped Jiang Che and gave him a serious reminder.

After all, it didn’t matter how he fooled around usually, but now that there was a baby involved... things had to be taken seriously.

"Got it!" Jiang Che yawned.

Jealous?

If Shen Yu actually got jealous, he’d be over the moon. He’d love nothing more than to see her jealous!

......

Nighttime.

"Classmate Shen Yu, now that we’re having a baby together, you can’t possibly have no feelings for me, right?"

Jiang Che sat cross-legged on the bed, propping his chin on one hand as he gazed at the girl in front of him, dressed in her sleepwear.

Shen Yu glanced sideways. "Don’t you have a conquest points system? Can’t you see the conquest value?"

Jiang Che: "......"

Damn, he’d almost forgotten about that. This Shen Yu was terrifyingly sharp—she’d outsmarted him!

"Ahem, of course I can see the conquest value. But a woman’s heart is as deep as the ocean, you know? I just want to hear your real thoughts!"

Shen Yu lowered her eyes, as if pondering. "I don’t know. But my feelings toward you seem to have changed somewhat."

"This change is because of the baby. From what I understand, pregnancy causes specific remodeling of MPOAGal neurons and alters gray matter in the brain. Hormones like progesterone and others influence maternal physiological responses... leading to maternal behaviors."

"Under hormonal influence, this maternal instinct can extend to the partner, creating a sense of dependency on you. So I believe this is all just hormonal effects!"

Jiang Che: "......"

For fuck’s sake, I give up!

Tell me, what man wouldn’t be exasperated by a woman like this?

You talk about love, and she hits you with hormones?

Screw your science—this girl’s brain is fried from studying too much!

Neuron remodeling? More like your little head needs remodeling.

"Hah... So you’re saying that even after giving birth, your love for the baby is just because of hormones?"

Jiang Che laughed in frustration.

Shen Yu paused, then nodded seriously. "Scientifically speaking, yes."

"To hell with your science!!!"

Jiang Che was furious, and the consequences would be severe.

"Hey, you damn Genius System!!! You’ve got ten seconds to show yourself, or I swear I’ll dismantle you!"

Shen Yu: "......"

The most absurd part? Her system actually responded!

In the next second, a glowing screen materialized before her.

[Hello, please remain calm.]

Shen Yu: "???"

"Calm my ass! What the hell have you been teaching my wife? All this science talk like she’s joined some cult!"

Simple profanity, maximum satisfaction!

[This isn’t a cult—it’s science!]

"Science? Science? Hah... Then explain this to me!"

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Che conjured a pale-white flame in his palm. The heat was so intense it distorted the surrounding space.

"And what about this?"

Jiang Che activated his special effects—the entire space twisted, and outside, the dark night sky erupted with lightning. Countless terrifying arcs split the heavens, as if divine retribution had descended from above. The sky looked like it had been pierced with countless holes.

It was like the apocalypse had arrived!

But with a snap of his fingers, Jiang Che made the celestial phenomena vanish without a trace.

Then, with another casual wave, he reversed night into day—the blazing sun now hung high, illuminating the earth. Many families jolted awake from their dreams.

Jiang Che, like a god, casually painted over reality itself.

This display of bending the laws of nature left both Shen Yu and her system utterly dumbfounded.

"Genius System, was it? Come on... Explain to me, scientifically, how I just did all that."

Jiang Che smirked, but his smile dripped with disdain for the system.

I let you bond with Xiao Yu'er out of respect for you being a cheat system, and this is how you repay me?

[......]

How the hell was it supposed to explain that?

But it was genuinely terrified now. This guy wasn’t a three-dimensional being—he had to be at least fifth-dimensional!

"Fifth-dimensional my ass! Get the hell out of here, you idiot!"

[???]

It was truly scared now. This guy could even hear the system’s inner thoughts.

[Ding... This system is currently undergoing a name change... Renaming successful! New system name: Scientific Cultivation System]

[Dear host, welcome to the system. As a beginner's gift, you will receive 100 million cultivation points.]

Shen Yu: "......"

Jiang Che: "......"

It’s clear the system is desperate to survive!
