"Ding dong~~~"
Outside the Jiang Family's door, Gu Lingfei knocked.
At the same time, on the third floor, Jiang Che got out of bed.
Yu Wan'er buried her head under the covers,
playing the ostrich.
......
Gu Lingfei had imagined many scenarios of meeting Jiang Che, but reality still left her utterly shocked!
After the door opened,
Jiang Che was only wearing a pair of floral boxers and a shirt, his perfect physique exuding a strong boyfriend vibe, with a faint, pleasant fragrance lingering on him.
Gu Lingfei might not have eaten pork, but she had certainly seen pigs run.
"Jiang Che, you..."
[Jiang Che, you little rascal! So this is why you didn’t come to pick me up—you’ve been hiding a beauty here!]
[Hmph, you’ve got a girlfriend and forgot about your sister, huh? And here I was, ready to gift you a supercar worth half a billion as a present. Is this how you welcome me?]
[Hehe, let me see which girl has caught Ah Che’s eye. It must be that girl from the Ye Family, right? I remember she and Ah Che were childhood sweethearts...]
Clearly, Gu Lingfei was six or seven years older than Jiang Che, and her feelings for him were purely sisterly.
"What? Ah Che, aren’t you going to invite me in?"
Gu Lingfei’s icy expression melted into a smile, like a glacier thawing.
This was the high-and-mighty CEO—outsiders only ever saw her cold demeanor, never her softer side.
Jiang Che glanced at Gu Lingfei; the CEO was truly stunning, with a figure that was undoubtedly the most perfect he had ever seen.
She was like a ripe, sweet fruit, exuding an intoxicating aroma from afar, just waiting to be plucked.
Even the striking figure of police officer Wang Yanran paled in comparison to Gu Lingfei.
[You little brat, where are you looking?]
Jiang Che’s gaze was one Gu Lingfei had seen in the eyes of many men, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit of aversion toward him.
Jiang Che chuckled softly, then stepped aside, gesturing for her to enter.
......
Though Gu Lingfei had been working hard for seven or eight years, the moment she returned to the Jiang Family, she completely relaxed. After taking off her high heels, she didn’t even bother with slippers, just sprawled out on the sofa.
Her flawless legs rested on the wooden coffee table, the sheer stockings accentuating their length. While the claim of a one-meter-long leg was an exaggeration, they were definitely at least 90 centimeters!
Legs worth admiring for a year!
Gu Lingfei had no reservations in front of Jiang Che, casually removing her stockings to reveal a pair of delicate, pale feet with the classic Roman shape—like a pair of artworks.
She tossed the stockings aside onto the sofa.
"Ah Che, aren’t you going to introduce your little girlfriend to me?"
Gu Lingfei asked with a teasing smile.
"She’s asleep..."
Gu Lingfei still clearly saw herself as nothing more than his older sister.
"Little Che has grown up, huh? Already has a girlfriend,"
Gu Lingfei sighed wistfully.
[How absurd is this? Little Che already has a girlfriend, and I’m seven years older than him, still single? Am I going to end up eating dog food in the future?]
...
Jiang Che showcased his wit, tossing out one risqué joke after another.
[Who taught Little Che all this? I remember him being such a well-behaved boy. He must’ve been influenced by his classmates.]
Gu Lingfei couldn’t take it anymore and retreated to her bedroom.
Her room, once a complete mess, was now spotlessly clean.
Seeing the room exactly as she remembered it, a warmth filled her heart.
She threw herself onto the bed, even rolling around like a teenage girl.
Gu Lingfei then changed into a pure white nightgown—one that Ye Mengyao had worn before. Though it was a bit small on her, it was still wearable.
Gu Lingfei didn’t mind too much; comfort was what mattered.
"Huh? The piano’s still here?"
On a whim, she decided to play a tune, sitting down at the piano... Soon, the soothing sound of music filled the villa.
But just as she was immersed in her piano world, the neighboring bedroom began to produce its own ‘musical’ sounds.
[What’s that noise?]
Gu Lingfei didn’t sleep a wink that night!
......
The next morning,
Gu Lingfei walked to the dining table with heavy dark circles under her eyes, her entire demeanor listless.
Clearly, someone had stayed up all night!
When Yu Wan'er saw Gu Lingfei, she lowered her head, avoiding eye contact.
[You pervert, you jerk, Jiang Che. I’ve lost all sense of shame...]
Yu Wan'er felt utterly exhausted. Just end the world already!
...
"Little sister, what’s your name? How old are you?"
Gu Lingfei was completely taken aback when she saw Yu Wan'er.
Yu Wan'er quickly replied, "Sister, my name is Yu Wan'er. I’m 19 years old."
Good heavens, she’s older than Ah Che?
She doesn’t look it at all!
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
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.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
