Ye Mengyao Visits in the Evening, Qin Qiaoqiao Hides in the Wardrobe

"Senior Jiang Che, did you know? My mom came to see me this morning. She wants to take me home!"

Qin Qiaoqiao clung to Jiang Che's arm, the two of them looking like a couple deeply in love.

"Oh? What did you say?"

"Of course, I firmly refused her! I was so brave..."

"Qiaoqiao, you're amazing!"

Jiang Che chuckled and gently patted Qin Qiaoqiao's head.

For dinner, Aunt Chen prepared sweet and sour spare ribs, along with three other dishes and a soup.

Aunt Chen's cooking skills were even better than some five-star hotel chefs, instantly winning over the young girl's taste buds.

Not long after dinner, Qin Qiaoqiao went to take a bath. The girl curled up in the tub, only her small head peeking out, her cheeks flushed pink from the steam.

Her long hair floated in the water like seaweed.

Senior Jiang Che's house... is really rich. Just this bathroom alone is more than twice the size of her bedroom.

And there are four bathrooms like this in the Jiang family villa!

Although Qin Qiaoqiao didn’t want to admit it... she was gradually becoming addicted to this lifestyle. After all, it’s easy to get used to luxury, but hard to go back to simplicity.

"Senior Jiang Che said he likes me," Qin Qiaoqiao tried to cheer herself up, but it didn’t take long for her spirits to sink again.

She really didn’t have any confidence. She was just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. Even though she was voted the campus belle... she didn’t think she was that pretty.

On the contrary... she was actually quite insecure.

Families like Jiang Che’s, with billions of dollars, surely cared about marrying someone of equal status.

So sad, so blue~

After her bath, Qin Qiaoqiao was in a pretty good mood.

"Senior Jiang Che, do you need me to help you review your studies?"

Just then, the doorbell rang downstairs!!!

Jiang Che’s lips curved into a slight smile. He didn’t even need to look to know who it was.

With his 'Heart-Reading' ability, he could hear the thoughts of all women within a 50-meter radius.

"Qiaoqiao, someone’s here!"

"Ah? Someone’s here?" Qin Qiaoqiao instantly panicked. Who else could it be but Jiang Che’s parents or family?

If Jiang Che’s parents found out about her, a regular girl... they would surely try to break them apart.

[Jiang’s mother: Here’s a million. Take it and leave my son immediately.]

[Qin Qiaoqiao: No! (Snowflakes drifting~~~)]

Jiang Che felt a headache coming on. What on earth was this girl thinking?

"Hah... don’t overthink it. Just know that I’ll never abandon you. You’ll always be special to me."

Although the line was cliché, it worked wonders on a love-struck girl like Qin Qiaoqiao.

...

Ye Mengyao’s heart was pounding, her hands clenched tightly.

The girl wore a long-sleeved coat, her hair falling naturally down her back. She had come specifically to see Jiang Che.

She knew very well... that the Jiang family villa wasn’t just occupied by Jiang Che alone—Qin Qiaoqiao was there too.

"Knock, knock, knock~" Ye Mengyao rapped on the door again.

Soon, the door opened.

Jiang Che was only wearing a pair of shorts, his perfectly toned physique on full display.

"It’s you?" Jiang Che deliberately showed a hint of disdain.

Then he started to close the door.

But Ye Mengyao nimbly slipped inside.

Ignoring Jiang Che’s gaze, she said with a grin, "Hehe... Jiang Che, I’m here to tutor you!"

Ye Mengyao carried a small backpack, her eyes filled with hope.

"Hah... Do I need you to tutor me?"

Jiang Che frowned.

Ye Mengyao pouted, sneaking a glance into the living room.

There was another girl’s shoes in the entrance shoe rack—Qin Qiaoqiao was definitely here!

This time, she wasn’t just here to confess her feelings to Jiang Che; she was also here to declare war!

"Jiang Che, if you don’t agree... I’ll tell your parents about us!"

Jiang Che was speechless: "..."

She’s even learned to threaten me now!
