Jiang Che sat in the back seat of the Maybach, while Dong'er took the driver's seat.
He stared blankly out the window.
A sparrow flew up to the window, left a little dropping, and then flew away.
The little girl blinked her big eyes a couple of times, turned on the windshield wipers, and washed away the fresh dropping, behaving so obediently it was almost unbelievable.
Jiang Che stroked his chin, flipping through Lin Yu's script in his system.
He had encountered three "Sons of Destiny" so far, but only Lin Yu had a script, which meant... Lin Yu was a special one among these chosen ones.
According to the original plot, Wang Yanran's father, Wang Laiyun, was the director of the Public Security Bureau. Recently, Hangcheng had been hit by a series of heinous murders, and the pressure on him was already immense. On top of that, he was framed by political rivals for corruption and bribery.
He was immediately dismissed and put under investigation. Later, it was Lin Yu who helped them overcome this crisis.
But now that Lin Yu was gone, without his protagonist halo, it would be difficult for Wang Yanran's family to recover.
Of course, Jiang Che was now viewing this from a god-like perspective. The framing was full of holes.
It was simply a case of a deputy director wanting to climb the ladder, so he framed Wang Laiyun for corruption. He sent him a painting, claiming it was a fake replica, but little did anyone know the painting had two layers, with the deeper layer being a genuine masterpiece worth millions.
Thus, Wang Laiyun fell from grace. No sooner had he left his position than he was reported.
This kind of plot could only happen in a novel. Anyone who could rise to the position of Public Security Bureau director would naturally tread carefully.
[Ding! The "Chosen Heroine" Wang Yanran's family has fallen from grace. The host has triggered a villainous choice.]
[Choice 1: Do nothing. Wang Yanran loses her heroine halo. Reward: 30 years of internal energy.]
[Choice 2: Take down Deputy Director Qi Lv. Reward: A super butler team.]
[Choice 3: Offer assistance and help Wang Laiyun recover. Wang Yanran's favorability +10. Reward: "Eternal Youth Elixir" recipe.]
Jiang Che: "???"
Another choice triggered?
And looking at the system options... are you trying to make me a good guy?
Jiang Che furrowed his brows slightly. The first option was tempting, offering 30 years of internal energy. If he chose the first option, with 30 years of internal energy, he had a high chance of breaking through to become a grandmaster-level expert!
But clearly, he wouldn't choose this option!
He didn't lack strength, as he was already at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm. Ordinary weaklings were no longer worth his attention. Even if some grandmaster-level old monsters came after him... he could just bring up his background, and which grandmaster wouldn't be afraid?
If anyone dared to touch him... his grandmaster-level grandfather would definitely come after them with a 40-meter-long sword.
A real 40-meter-long sword!
Moreover, Choices 2 and 3 weren't mutually exclusive.
"I'll choose the second and third options."
Mainly because the rewards for the second and third options were too enticing!
[Super Butler Team: A team of 100 people with top-tier butler experience, including maids, gardeners, asset managers... and all of them are women with a beauty score of over 80.]
This butler team was perfect. Jiang Che's home was quite cold and empty. Although he now had quite a few girls around, the house was simply too big—five floors, almost like a palace—so it still felt very empty.
He had long wanted to hire some butlers and servants, but those servants were still outsiders.
Now, the system had directly given him a team, and they were all female puppets with a beauty score of over 80. This was simply delightful.
["Eternal Youth Elixir" Recipe: An essence extracted from various rare Chinese medicinal herbs, mixed in strict proportions. After consumption, it will grant eternal youth.]
Tsk tsk tsk, what a treasure!
Things like Eternal Youth Elixirs, Eternal Youth Pills, Life-Extending Pills, and Disease-Curing Pills... these were all old tropes in wish-fulfillment novels, but weren't these supposed to be things only the protagonist could have?
Who would have thought that a villain like me could also enjoy such treatment!
Jiang Che stretched his limbs and decided to get to work.
Since Deputy Director Qi Lv was capable of framing Wang Laiyun, this guy was definitely not a good person. He would just have Monkey investigate, and they would surely find something.
[Monkey: Don't worry, Young Master Jiang. I'll definitely dig up everything on Qi Lv. I can even find out what he ate last night!]
Monkey was very confident. His hacking skills were among the top five in the world, if not the top three!
...
Monkey worked quickly.
In just over two hours, he had dug up all of Deputy Director Qi Lv's dirty secrets.
To be honest, someone like Qi Lv, a deputy director... his level of confidentiality wasn't very high, so it was relatively easy for Monkey to investigate him.
[Young Master Jiang, here's some dirt on Qi Lv. This old guy hid things pretty well. In his early years, he kept several female college students as mistresses. Later, when one of them got pregnant and threatened him, he had her secretly dealt with...]
[I also found evidence of him framing Public Security Bureau Director Wang Laiyun. I uncovered some chat logs and recordings. Please take a look.]
You could question Monkey's taste and preferences, but you absolutely couldn't question his professional skills!
Someone like him had to be kept firmly under control.
However, Jiang Che wasn't worried about Monkey betraying him. He had already used the system to check Monkey's loyalty.
With a full score of 100, Monkey's loyalty was at 90, which meant he was absolutely incapable of betrayal.
"Monkey, you did well. If there's a new generation of intelligent robots, I'll let you know first."
Monkey's hobby was simple: dolls. If you could satisfy this desire of his, he would be completely loyal to you!
[Hehehe, Young Master Jiang, you really get me!]
After obtaining the evidence, Jiang Che didn't immediately go to Wang Yanran.
Now that he had the upper hand, Wang Yanran was probably consumed with worry... constantly fretting over her father but unable to do anything.
Jiang Che planned to leave her hanging for a few days. When Wang Laiyun's situation was about to reach its conclusion... he would reveal the evidence and create a dramatic reversal!
"My dear Yanran, I sacrificed the chance to become a grandmaster for you! Shouldn't you... repay me by having three children with me?"
Jiang Che lightly licked his lips.
...
Back at the villa.
Qiangwei was wearing a white strappy nightgown, lying on the bed playing a game, her bare legs swinging back and forth.
A white Ragdoll cat was perched on the girl's shoulder, also watching the phone, its tail occasionally flicking. The scene between the girl and the cat was very heartwarming.
"Brother Jiang Che?"
When Qiangwei saw Jiang Che, she was overjoyed. She stopped playing with her phone and immediately sat up on the bed.
"Meow—"
The little Ragdoll on her shoulder let out a pitiful cry as it tumbled off the bed.
Qiangwei's delicate face showed a hint of apology, and then she ran over to Jiang Che.
She threw herself into Jiang Che's arms.

Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
