Jiang Che is trending!
He has directly topped the hot search list at #1.
"Ugh~ He's so handsome, rich, and surrounded by so many girls. I can't even imagine how amazing his life must be!"
"Ugh~ He clearly had the ability to get into Yan University, but he chose Z University instead, freeing up a few spots. I feel like I might have a chance at Yan University now!"
"Damn, I was planning to apply to Z University, but now a top-tier player is coming to dominate the rookie pool?"
"At 19, he controls a trillion-dollar fortune and has a harem of beauties. Meanwhile, at 19, I'm drowning in 3,000 yuan of debt and all alone."
...
Jiang Che is showing off, but someone is feeling the heat!
"That brat! I'm gonna kill him!"
Ye Changkong was fuming. His precious daughter was serving the same man alongside other girls? Was this some kind of joke?
Of course... he had known for a while that Jiang Che had many girls around him, but he thought it wasn't a big deal.
Now the whole country knows!
Everyone knows Jiang Che took his daughter, Ye Changkong's, and is playing the field. Where does that leave his dignity?
"Changkong, calm down. What's done is done. Even if you rage to death, what can you do? Yaoyao is head over heels for Jiang Che. You can't just break them apart, can you?"
Lin Xue gently patted Ye Changkong's shoulder and spoke softly.
"I hate this! She's my only daughter! How am I supposed to face people in business meetings now? Everyone's gonna laugh at me!"
"Not necessarily. The Jiang family's background is even more complicated than ours. In a way... it's kind of like Yaoyao marrying up."
Ye Changkong gritted his teeth. "Marrying up, my foot! It's that brat Jiang Che trying to reach for the stars!"
But no matter how angry Ye Changkong got, he couldn't change the facts.
All he could do was rage helplessly.

[Ding! Host's mission failed. Please try again.]
Shen Yu was numb.
Her system mission had failed yet again.
When she first bound the Academic God System, she activated this short-term Phase I main mission: to achieve the top score nationwide in the college entrance exam.
Upon success, the system would reward her with 100,000 Academic God Points.
Shen Yu had been supremely confident in this mission, as she was capable of scoring perfect marks.
In the history of Dragon Country, how many people could achieve a perfect score in such a major exam?
But ever since Jiang Che appeared, everything changed!
This time, she scored 749 points, ranking second nationwide. She was just one point short—probably due to a deduction in the reading comprehension section of the Chinese exam.
This was frustrating.
While perfect scores in the essay section were common, getting full marks in reading comprehension was nearly impossible. It required not just skill but also luck.
Unfortunately, her luck wasn't great this time.
Even if the original author of the passage took the test, they probably wouldn't score full marks.
"Jiang Che..."
Shen Yu sat on the couch, staring at her phone, where Jiang Che was already trending.
A perfect score of 750!
People always remember the first, never the second.
Shen Yu couldn't help but click on the essay Jiang Che had written, titled "On Teachers."
"Ancient scholars always had teachers..."
After reading the entire essay, Shen Yu's eyes showed a hint of complexity.
"This must be from another world. The essay is excellent, but it feels a bit out of sync with this era."
Shen Yu was perhaps the person who understood Jiang Che the most. She was also the only one who knew about his identity as a reincarnator.
The young girl sat alone on a swing, her slender legs swaying gently. Her simple ponytail gave her a scholarly air.
Shen Yu was the quintessential intellectual girl. For most people, winning her heart would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
Just then, there was a knock on her door.
After being rejected by Jiang Che, the admissions officers from Yan University turned to Shen Yu, the second-place scorer nationwide.
"Miss Shen Yu, we meet again. Last time, when you won the gold medal at the International Mathematical Olympiad, we met, and Yan University extended an offer to you..."
Shen Yu looked at the admissions officers with a calm expression.
The gold medal from the International Math Olympiad held immense prestige, guaranteeing her a spot in Yan University's math department.
Shen Yu's plan had been simple: complete her undergraduate studies at Yan University's math department, then pursue a master's degree abroad at Princeton University's math department, aiming for the Fields Medal. After that, she would return to Dragon Country to focus on physics, aiming to win both the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize within ten years.
This was her Phase I long-term main mission.
But now... her plans were wavering.
Jiang Che's appearance had directly altered her system's main mission. In fact, most of her system's tasks were now tied to Jiang Che.
From now on, it seemed she couldn't escape Jiang Che.
"So, Miss Shen Yu, what do you think? Given your outstanding performance, Yan University will assign you the best mentor and offer you a 3 million yuan scholarship."
Faced with such an enticing offer, Shen Yu only thought for a moment before shaking her head.
"Thank you for your kind offer, but I've decided not to apply to Yan University."
The admissions officers were stunned.
"W-what? Miss Shen Yu, didn't you say you were coming to Yan University? Why the change of heart?"
"First, I never said I would definitely go. I only said I would consider it. Second... choosing which university to attend is my freedom," Shen Yu replied in her usual calm tone.
"If you're not applying to Yan University, where else would you go?"
"Z University!"
"......"
The admissions officers were at a loss. How could tiny Z University snatch so many top students this year?
After closing the door, Shen Yu remained lost in thought, unsure of what she was pondering.
Involuntarily, her mind drifted back to the memory of her kiss with Jiang Che, and she reached up to touch her lips.
...
"Master, here are the medicinal herbs you requested. We found one thousand-year-old ginseng, but we couldn't find any thousand-year-old fleeceflower root or thousand-year-old snow lotus. The best we could find were five-hundred-year-old versions. We searched every herbal shop in Dragon Country."
Leng Ningqiu waved her hand, and several people carried in three large boxes.
Inside were various rare and precious herbs.
Jiang Che glanced at them and confirmed they were genuine.
"Ningqiu, you've worked hard."
Jiang Che cupped Leng Ningqiu's head and kissed her.
For a woman like Leng Ningqiu, straightforward rewards were the best approach.
To outsiders, Leng Ningqiu was an icy, untouchable CEO, but in private... she was a full-blown seductress, capable of driving anyone wild.
"Master, it's no trouble at all. Just spending time with you is enough for me," Leng Ningqiu said, her arms wrapped around Jiang Che's neck, her eyes soft and alluring.
"Of course! I'll spend as much time with you as you want!"
Forget about transforming into a catgirl for now—that could wait!
