After breaking off the engagement, Chen Ningshuang packed her belongings and prepared to step into the mundane world.
As for Ye Liangchen's earlier annulment and the three-year pact?
She didn't take it to heart at all. Those she had left behind were destined to forever gaze at her back, until she disappeared into the distance!
"Brother... seems to have gone to Hangcheng?"
For her, wherever her brother went, she would follow.
...
"Oh? The Ancient Martial Arts Chen Family has broken off the engagement with the Ancient Martial Arts Ye Family?"
Jiang Che looked at the information Monkey had sent him, stroking his chin as he keenly sensed something amiss.
After all, his current identity was that of a villain!
Keywords like "miracle doctor," "son-in-law," "broken engagement," "endurance," and "you've already chosen death" were all red flags.
After delving deeper into the details, Jiang Che couldn't help but smirk.
Chen Ningshuang, the genius girl of the Chen Family, was actually Chen Hao's younger sister?
And the person she had broken off the engagement with was none other than Ye Liangchen, the young master of the Ye Family. After hearing about Ye Liangchen's exploits... it was clear that this guy was undoubtedly a new "child of destiny."
And they even made a three-year pact? "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west"?
This was almost too hilarious!
"Monkey, I have a task for you. Keep a close eye on this Ye Liangchen. Once he does anything, report it all to me."
Recently, Jiang Che had witnessed Monkey's terrifying abilities. This guy was practically a god on the internet, effortlessly hacking into various surveillance systems without getting caught. Perhaps Monkey was also some kind of unconventional "child of destiny."
The only difference was that Monkey was now completely loyal to him, with a loyalty level nearing 95%, almost to the point of being unshakable!
Sometimes trust between men was just that simple—it was mutual. He wasn't like Su Han, who was stingy and tight-fisted.
Jiang Che had spent over thirty million to set Monkey up with a bunch of AI virtual girlfriends.
But then again, money was the least of his concerns!
"Don't worry, Young Master Jiang. I've got Ye Liangchen under constant surveillance. I can even tell you the color of his poop."
Jiang Che: "......"
Sometimes, having too much loyalty... might not be a good thing.
......
Outside the Jiang Family Villa, an "unexpected guest" arrived.
Bai Jie stepped out of the car, dressed in a black-and-white maid outfit, her face fresh and clean, devoid of the heavy makeup she used to wear.
"Miss, I don't think... this is worth it!"
The driver was Aunt Wang, a middle-aged woman who had been by Bai Jie's side ever since the girl entered the Bai Family.
She knew very well how deeply Bai Jie felt for Jiang Che—it was genuine love, even bordering on obsession. Bai Jie often stalked and took photos of Jiang Che in secret.
"It's fine."
The young girl lowered her gaze, lost in thought.
Ever since she found out that Jiang Che's household had hired over a dozen young maids, she couldn't sit still anymore.
That's right!
She planned to sneak into Jiang Che's home wearing this maid outfit... and then something wonderful would happen.
Aunt Wang sighed helplessly. In her eyes... her young mistress's behavior was extremely reckless. Jiang Che was the son of a top-tier aristocratic family, while the Bai Family was merely second-rate.
This was nothing but self-humiliation!
......
Jiang Che was upstairs, cuddling with Dong'er and petting his cat.
This Ragdoll cat had recently passed its heat cycle and had become much calmer, appearing more docile than before.
"Hmm? Seems like we're about to have a guest!"
Jiang Che's lips curled slightly. He possessed a divine skill known as "Mind Reading."
Even though he was upstairs, he could hear a young girl's thoughts from dozens of meters away.
[How should I get in? If I climb over the fence, will I be noticed?]
[Ugh! Why is this maid outfit so poorly made? It's already torn!]
Soon, Jiang Che realized whose thoughts these were!
Bai Jie!
That obsessive little fangirl of his!
Wow, she's even skipping school? Cutting class and climbing walls just to throw herself at me?
Jiang Che shook his head helplessly.
The walls of the Jiang Family Villa were so high that if just anyone could climb over them, it wouldn't be much of a mansion, would it?
But since she was so eager to throw herself at him, Young Master Jiang naturally couldn't bear to see her get hurt.
He immediately called over one of the maids and gave her some instructions.
"Yes, Master."
Soon, the villa's main gate opened!
That's right!
The gate opened directly.
"I guess climbing the wall is out of the question. Maybe I should consider digging a tunnel instead."
Bai Jie looked down at her fair, delicate hands, ready to start digging.
Truly. Digging a hole to get in!
But the next second, she was stunned.
"Huh? The gate's open?"
Bai Jie, crouched in the bushes ready to dig, was dumbfounded. And there didn't seem to be anyone guarding it?
This was a perfect opportunity!
Without hesitation, the young girl sneaked in, lifting the hem of her skirt.
But as soon as she entered, she bumped into a maid. Bai Jie instinctively lowered her head.
To her surprise, the maid didn't seem to notice anything unusual about her!
After all, she was wearing the same maid outfit.
Feeling a surge of joy, Bai Jie grew bolder and followed two maids into the villa.
She occasionally glanced around at the decorations and took in the scent of the air.
She caught a familiar scent... it was the smell of Jiang Che!
But soon, she was completely stunned.
......
Bai Jie's thoughts were in complete disarray, and she was utterly dumbfounded. She never expected Jiang Che to have such a side to him!
"Hey, you there, little maid, stop!"
Jiang Che's lips curled into a slight smirk as he called out.
Bai Jie lowered her head even further, her heart racing with panic.
She was truly afraid of being discovered, afraid that Jiang Che would kick her out!
"Hmm... come here."
Jiang Che beckoned with his finger. Despite her overwhelming nervousness, Bai Jie obediently walked over.
"From now on, you'll be responsible for taking care of Dong'er. You'll be her personal maid, got it?"
Bai Jie kept her head down but couldn't help stealing a glance at the silver-haired, purple-eyed beauty beside Jiang Che. In that moment... she felt a pang of jealousy.
How could this girl be so cute and beautiful?
Just how many girls had Jiang Che surrounded himself with without her knowing?
Ye Mengyao!
Yu Wan'er!
Qin Qiaoqiao!
And now there was Dong'er too?
But still, she felt a bit relieved. Although she was extremely jealous, she should be grateful that Jiang Che was a man of many affections rather than a one-woman man.
Because if Jiang Che were the loyal type... she would have no chance at all!
But now... she still had a sliver of hope!
All she needed to do was to turn her relationship with Jiang Che into a done deal. Though this method might sound a bit shameless.
What Bai Jie didn't know was... Jiang Che had already seen through all her little schemes.
Still think you're a yandere?
Well, I overestimated you!
