"Chen Hao, I remember you had a crush on Qin Qiaoqiao, right?"
Mentioning Qin Qiaoqiao made Chen Hao's mood even worse.
This guy really knew how to hit where it hurt!
He had just managed to pull himself out of the gloom of losing Qiaoqiao, and now Jiang Che was dragging him back into those memories.
You’re such a dog!
Damn you!
Seeing that Chen Hao remained silent, Jiang Che continued.
"I know you like Qiaoqiao. How about this? If you agree that Shuang'er is my woman, I’ll break up with Qiaoqiao right away. Then you’ll have your chance, won’t you?"
Jiang Che flashed a mischievous grin.
Of course, he was just messing around. There was no way he’d give up Qiaoqiao. The girls around him... even if they had bad tempers, he wouldn’t let them go, let alone someone like Qin Qiaoqiao, who was completely devoted to him.
Jiang Che might be a bit of a playboy and a little perverted, but he didn’t consider himself a scumbag. He just wanted every beautiful girl to feel loved.
As expected, this statement left Chen Hao speechless.
If he acknowledged that Shuang'er was Jiang Che’s woman, Jiang Che would break up with Qiaoqiao? Could it be that this bastard had grown tired of Qin Qiaoqiao?
For a moment, he wavered.
Even though Qin Qiaoqiao and Jiang Che were already involved, she was still the first girl he had ever liked. He could never forget her.
And now, Shuang'er had become Jiang Che’s maid. The Chen family was no match for Jiang Che, so it was only a matter of time before Shuang'er fell into his clutches... Maybe it would be better if...
But soon, Chen Hao was horrified by his own thoughts.
He shook his head violently. How could he even think such a thing?
Shuang'er was his younger sister. How could he possibly sacrifice her for a girl he had a crush on?
"Jiang Che! Let go of Shuang'er! Don’t you dare lay a finger on her!"
Jiang Che raised an eyebrow slightly. He hadn’t expected this... Chen Hao actually had some principles, unlike that so-called Wolf King Su Han.
Chen Hao might be a simp, but at least he wasn’t completely brainless.
"Brother, don’t worry about me. I... I’m willing to serve Young Master Jiang as his maid."
Shuang'er’s words clearly lacked conviction. Anyone with half a brain could see the reluctance on Chen Ningshuang’s face.
"Shuang'er, Jiang Che, I’m begging you... I’ll stop liking Qin Qiaoqiao. I know you’re upset about my feelings for her... but please, don’t touch my sister, okay?"
Chen Hao’s not-so-bright brain was finally starting to work.
He and Jiang Che had no real beef. The only issue was that they both liked Qin Qiaoqiao.
The reason Jiang Che was targeting him had to be because of Qin Qiaoqiao.
Fine, I’ll give up! I’ll give up, okay?
Just stop messing with me! Don’t touch my sister!
"Huh? You actually believed me?"
"Qiaoqiao loves me to the core. If I were to abandon her, she’d be heartbroken!"
"And I really like Shuang'er too. Look at her... this Hanfu I picked out for her is stunning, isn’t it?"
Jiang Che’s twisted smile shattered Chen Hao’s composure.
This bastard, damn you!
"Jiang Che! You’ll get what’s coming to you!"
But Jiang Che had already stopped paying attention to him.
"Chen Hao, since you’re practically my brother-in-law now, don’t worry... I’ll keep your security job open for you. I’ll even have the finance department raise your salary by a hundred! That should be enough, right?"
Chen Hao was on the verge of spitting blood. "Who the hell wants to work at your company?"
"Hmm... If I recall correctly, when you joined Qiangsheng Group, you signed a six-month contract, didn’t you? If you quit before the six months are up, you’ll have to pay a hefty penalty."
"......"
Chen Hao’s spirit was utterly crushed.
He could only watch helplessly as Jiang Che wrapped his arm around Chen Ningshuang and walked into the company.
...
"Shuang'er, why aren’t you smiling? You’re always so serious... Smile, it looks good on you."
Jiang Che teased, but Chen Ningshuang stood stiffly, her expression as cold as ice, seething with anger but unable to speak out.
"See, I even took care of your brother. I raised his salary by a hundred! Aren’t I generous?"
Chen Ningshuang’s voice trembled slightly. "If you want me, just say it... It’s not like I can resist you anyway."
Jiang Che chuckled. "My genius young lady, do you look down on me because I’m a cultivation failure?"
"How does it feel to be a genius forced to serve a failure like me?"
Chen Ningshuang: "......"
[What a despicable pervert!]
Her heart was already in turmoil. She knew exactly what Jiang Che wanted.
He wanted to crush her pride.
Losing her purity was only a matter of time. The waiting was the most torturous part.
[Damn you, you scoundrel! I’ll never bow to you. Even if you take my purity... I’ll... I’ll hate you forever!]
[The day I break through to Grandmaster will be the day you die.]
But for now, Chen Ningshuang could only seethe in silent rage.
"Darling, you look so cute when you’re angry."
...
As soon as Jiang Che entered the company, a group of stunning women surrounded him.
"CEO Jiang, would you like me to report on the work progress?"
"CEO Jiang..."
Nearly thirty beautiful women from Qiangsheng Group’s upper management gathered around Jiang Che, and these were just the ones in the office. There were more on business trips.
Qiangsheng Group’s upper management was famously known as the "Beauty Brigade," as almost all the executives were stunning women.
Some of the shareholders who had joined through later investments were baffled.
They knew the company had a top boss, but they hadn’t expected him to be so young.
He looked no older than eighteen or nineteen, and what was even more infuriating was that these icy beauties, who were usually cold and unapproachable, melted into smiles the moment they saw him.
Jiang Che had his left arm around Chen Ningshuang and his right around Leng Ningqiu.
Surrounded by beauties, he listened to their reports on work-related matters.
Ahem... Truth be told, he was too busy enjoying himself to pay attention. Whatever they were saying... he forgot it all.
"Alright, alright! You can handle all the investments. I’ll just be your strong backup."
Jiang Che laughed and kissed Leng Ningqiu on the cheek. Although Leng Ningqiu was a puppet created by the system, she was indistinguishable from a real person. The only difference was her unwavering loyalty to Jiang Che!
Under their management, the company ran like a well-oiled machine. The stock and securities investment department alone had earned him tens of millions in just one month. While that amount was negligible to Jiang Che now, who knew what the future held?
Besides, these were the ultimate workaholics, clocking in 996 hours without a single complaint.
The executives’ salaries were high, but since they were all Jiang Che’s people, the money just cycled back to him.
As for the ordinary employees at the bottom... their wages were a drop in the bucket compared to the company’s profits.
Jiang Che was a true capitalist at heart.
