“Bro, you’re not much, huh? Fainted already?”
Watching Qin Tian faint from anger, Jiang Che felt rather speechless.
This kind of "chosen one" who could only rage impotently and lacked any tact or subtlety was easy to deal with.
What could you say? Their eyes were so clear... yet so stupid!
With Qin Tian now unconscious, Jiang Che lost interest and, with Leng Ningqiu in his arms, left the hospital ward, laughing and chatting.
“Qiu'er, this guy’s hooked now. Time to butcher the pig~”
Leng Ningqiu’s brows curved gently, and her smile, fox-like, exuded cunning.
“Master, we could hold a meeting at the company. All the sisters could transfer their shares to you, bringing your stake to a level of absolute control. That way, you could easily kick Qin Tian out—”
Ninety-five percent of the executive shareholders of the Qiangsheng Group were loyal to Jiang Che. Though their shares were scattered, they ultimately all belonged to him.
Forget about the Qiangsheng Group being worth just a few billion now. Even if it became a trillion-dollar super corporation, Leng Ningqiu and the others would remain utterly loyal to Jiang Che. A 100% loyalty rating wasn’t something to joke about.
“You’re quite shrewd, you know. You’ve got 800 tricks up your sleeve.” Jiang Che teased.
Leng Ningqiu looped her arm around Jiang Che’s, lightly licking her upper lip. “Master... I’m not just about being shrewd, you know~~~”
The woman exhaled warm breath near Jiang Che’s ear, making him feel rather helpless.
Although Leng Ningqiu was a business-type beauty created by the system, she was essentially just like an ordinary woman, except her loyalty to Jiang Che was maxed out.
“Hmph... You really are a fox spirit!”
“Hmm? Qiu'er is a fox spirit made to bewitch her master~”
“Let’s head back to the company first. Where’s your office, Qiu'er? Let’s discuss how to drain Qin Tian of all his benefits.”
...
Two hours later, Jiang Che emerged from the Qiangsheng Group. He felt refreshed.
As he passed by the security room, he even cheerfully greeted Chen Hao.
“Thanks a lot today, brother-in-law!”
Seeing Jiang Che’s smug look, Chen Hao was utterly torn.
Jiang Che was only wearing a thin white low-collared shirt, and there were small love bites on his neck, clear evidence of what he’d just been up to.
Who else could have left those bite marks on him unless it was the cool and classy CEO?
Of course, Chen Hao no longer dared to fantasize about beauties like Qin Qiaoqiao or Leng Ningqiu. He’d even grown indifferent to avenging his sister. All he wanted was to focus on being a humble security guard and quietly build his strength.
“Good morning, Young Master Jiang~”
“It’s almost afternoon already, brother-in-law. Did you stay up too late last night? You’re out of it, huh?”
Jiang Che grinned, walking up to Chen Hao and patting his shoulder, infusing his palm with internal energy.
A single slap sent Chen Hao stumbling. “Take care of yourself. A little indulgence is fine, but overdoing it will hurt your body, and going wild will totally ruin you! Take some time to go to a massage parlor... all your worries will vanish.”
Chen Hao: “......”
Are you kidding me? You’re telling me to take care of my body? Look at all the women around you... sooner or later, you’re going to wear yourself out!
Though he cursed Jiang Che inwardly, Chen Hao could only force a smile.
“You’re absolutely right, Young Master Jiang~”
...
The Jiang Family Estate.
“Young Master, there’s someone here to see you. Claims to be the head of the Bai Family of Hangcheng, and also Bai Jie’s father.”
Jiang Che was lounging on the sofa, with the small ragdoll cat, Su Mianmian, resting on his lap. He gently stroked her fur, and she mewed contentedly, occasionally swishing her little tail.
Qiangwei was dressed in a pure and alluring homey outfit, sitting beside Jiang Che and kneading his shoulders.
Yu Wan'er and Ye Mengyao were munching on snacks and binge-watching a series. The atmosphere in the room was cozy and warm.
Jiang Che glanced up at the young maid. “The head of the Bai Family? Bai Tianlong?”
“Looks like the old man got wind of something!”
Jiang Che then turned his gaze to Qiangwei. “Your birth father’s here. Probably here to see you.”
Qiangwei’s eyes flickered slightly, a brief tremble in her gaze, but it quickly disappeared.
“Jiang Che gege, I don’t want to go back to the Bai Family. I only want you~”
Qiangwei really... was just so pure and adorable. A girl devoted entirely to him—it was impossible for Jiang Che not to feel something for her.
“Still, meet him once, alright? After all, he’s your birth father~”
Jiang Che lightly pinched the girl’s cheek.
...
Bai Tianlong was extremely excited, especially when the Jiang Family’s gate opened!
His eldest daughter, whom he hadn’t seen in over a decade!
“Young Master Jiang, first meeting... this is a gift for you...”
Bai Tianlong was quite sensible. After all, as the head of a third-rate family, he was nothing but a speck in front of someone like Jiang Che.
“No need for gifts,” Jiang Che waved it off.
“Are you here for little Jie’s matters?”
Bai Tianlong scratched his head awkwardly. Just a quick glance inside the house had him flabbergasted.
There were too many girls here! Apart from the little maids, there were at least five or six beautiful young ladies!
“Ahem... Young Master Jiang, since you and little Jie are in a mutual relationship, naturally, I as her father can’t say much.”
Bai Tianlong spoke politely, all the while his eyes darting around, eventually resting on Qiangwei.
So similar!
Too similar!
She looked exactly like the woman in his memories!
Though this was his first time meeting Qiangwei, he could be certain—this was his own daughter.
Though exhilarated, Bai Tianlong forcibly suppressed his inner joy.
Weiwei... had grown so much. A young girl in the Middle East... how had she survived? He dared not imagine!
A sense of guilt began to creep into his heart.
He really... had let his daughter down!
And his daughter was now massaging Jiang Cheng? It made him feel extremely uneasy. It seemed Weiwei had also become one of Jiang Che’s women.
What a jerk!
Jiang Che’s once-handsome face suddenly seemed contemptible in Bai Tianlong’s eyes.
“Huh? Young Master Jiang! This girl looks just like my daughter Jie.”
Bai Tianlong pretended to be puzzled.
Jiang Che glanced coldly at him. “Just ask what you want to know. Stop beating around the bush like a woman!”
Bai Tianlong: “......”
He was about to cry. Is there any son-in-law who talks to his father-in-law like this?
Of course, he was quite self-aware. Even if he offered both daughters to Jiang Che, he had no right to expect the young master to call him father-in-law. After all, the gap between the Bai Family and the Jiang Family was far too vast.
The tradition of "matching families by status" wasn’t just a saying.

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!

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.
