After preparing breakfast, Aunt Chen was about to leave when she saw Jiang Che coming downstairs with Qin Qiaoqiao and Ye Mengyao.
She wasn’t particularly familiar with Qin Qiaoqiao, but she definitely knew Ye Mengyao—the young lady from the prestigious Ye family.
The news was explosive, but Aunt Chen wisely lowered her head and quietly stepped out.
Though she had watched Jiang Che grow up and was considered an elder, she was well aware of her place as a servant.
“Jiang Che, this soy milk is too hot. Let me blow on it for you~”
While the girls had already eaten, Jiang Che hadn’t had a bite yet.
Ye Mengyao felt like she had so much to say to Jiang Che. Had he really started to care about her?
Was he worried that her revealing outfit might attract unwanted attention?
He must be jealous!
She couldn’t help but feel delighted.
Qin Qiaoqiao frowned, glaring at Ye Mengyao as she blew on the soy milk for Jiang Che, her teeth clenched in frustration.
She had already seen through Ye Mengyao’s true nature yesterday.
Such a shameless person!
“Jiang Che, try this bun. It’s delicious!”
With that, Qin Qiaoqiao shot a challenging look at Ye Mengyao.
[Qin Qiaoqiao: Hmph, Ye Mengyao, you call yourself a lady? No wonder Jiang Che doesn’t like you—you’ve been stringing him along all this time.]
Ye Mengyao didn’t hold much resentment toward Qin Qiaoqiao. After all, she had already gone through her dark phase. Now that she knew Jiang Che was a playboy… she wasn’t as narrow-minded anymore.
Moreover, she had figured out Jiang Che’s true feelings… Even though he often treated her coldly, deep down, he still cared for her.
And that was enough!
Jiang Che: “......”
What a battlefield!
They say three women make a drama, but these two were already vying for his attention.
“Damn system, is my halo even working? Wasn’t it supposed to keep the harem from falling into chaos?”
The system, unusually responsive, answered.
[Dear host, the female leads have their own thoughts and aren’t NPCs. They will still compete for your affection. The ‘Harem Leader’ halo only ensures they won’t become completely yandere or resort to extreme measures to possess you…]
“Got it!”
Well, whether it was Ye Mengyao or Qin Qiaoqiao, he still had to pamper them a bit.
As he thought about it… he started missing Yu Wan’er.
Eating from one bowl, eyeing the pot, and thinking about the field—that’s exactly the kind of person Jiang Che was!
...
After dragging through the morning, Jiang Che finally found some free time.
He felt completely drained.
“Now I understand why ancient emperors died so young!”
But Jiang Che wasn’t worried. After all, he had the cheat skill of super-healing factor.
Unparalleled regenerative ability… and it wasn’t just about healing wounds.
After stretching his back, Jiang Che walked over to the litter box and resumed his duties as a cat owner.
The Ragdoll cat named ‘Xiao Guai’ trotted over when it saw Jiang Che, licking his fingers and even rubbing its butt against his hand.
Clearly… the cat was in heat.
“Go away, stop flirting with me. If you could turn into a cat girl, maybe I’d help you out.”
“Meow meow~”
It rubbed against Jiang Che’s fingers and meowed a few times.
“Damn it, if you keep this up, I’ll have you neutered, you hear me?”
Jiang Che was at his wit’s end. These past few days, the cat had been acting up… as if it had been provoked by him.
Now it was in heat, and every night… the Ragdoll cat would meow outside, giving Jiang Che a headache.
“Meow~” The Ragdoll cat lay on the floor, wagging its tail.
Jiang Che had no choice but to pull out a cotton swab.
He had learned this trick online—apparently, it could help female cats in heat.
......
Hangzhou.
Inside a nightclub.
“NO!!!”
Lin Yu’s hands and feet were shackled with iron chains.
Standing in front of him was a bald man.
The bald head gleamed under the lights.
This man was none other than Wang Zheng’s enforcer and the second-in-command of Hangzhou’s underground forces!
Brother Qiang, nicknamed… Baldy Qiang!
Brother Qiang wore a lecherous grin…
“Let me go! I’m a master of hidden strength! My two masters—one is the leader of the Ghost Doctor Sect, and the other is the 19th-ranked assassin in the dark world, with peak internal strength! If you dare lay a hand on me… they’ll never let you go!”
Lin Yu was terrified, his mind numb.
Over the past two days, he had experienced things most men would never go through in their entire lives.
It was agonizing for Lin Yu. As the heir of the Ghost Doctor and a mid-level hidden strength master, he should have been invincible after descending the mountain. But why had his journey been so fraught with hardship?
Not only had the woman he loved been taken from him, but every time he tried to show off, he ended up in jail. And now… he was being violated.
It felt like a nightmare.
Ever since he was crippled, Lin Yu’s appearance had become increasingly effeminate, and he had even grown his hair long.
He was almost turning into a drag queen.
Even if you were a hidden strength master, trying to break free from iron chains? That was nothing but wishful thinking.
“As expected of a martial arts master,”
Brother Qiang swallowed hard, a sinister smile spreading across his face.
“Hehe, let me take a look.”
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
iving with nine beautiful women. [Ding! Welcome back to the Joyous Sect, Host…] Lin Yu: ??? I’m clearly in a shared rental, but you’re saying I’m in the Joyous Sect? Watering plants is now [Tending to Spiritual Flora]? Cooking becomes [Researching Elixirs]? Making the bed turns into [Setting Up Formations]? A gentle and innocent auntie, twin classmates, a mysterious hacker girl on leave, a severely socially anxious artist, an elementary school Chinese teacher, a community hospital nurse, a pet shop owner, an antique clock restorer… This system… is kinda interesting.
wed him to see the innate talent, destiny, and future of those he invested in. The greater the destiny of his target, the richer the rewards he would reap. Then he discovered that the aloof girl next door, his childhood sweetheart, possessed the highest-grade crimson destiny—a future destined to reign supreme as the Empress of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. Lately, she seemed troubled, pondering how to unlock her sealed meridians and unleash her talents ahead of time... — — — My name is Ying Bing, one of the Nine Heavenly Sovereigns, titled the Phoenix Empress, reigning invincibly over the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. I have been reborn and bound to a Peerless Genius System, where ranking first among my peers grants me rewards. [Would you like to activate the Punishment Mechanism?] [Upon activation, rewards will increase, but after the rankings are announced, you must carry out the "Punishment of the Defeated" on the top-ranked individual.] Ying Bing: "I can’t very well punish myself, can I?" — — — Years later. Ying Bing: "Can’t you let me win just once?" Li Mo: "First, call me 'husband' properly—I didn’t hear it clearly last time."
