The person Jiang Che saved?
Everyone at the scene turned their gaze toward Jiang Che.
The expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Ye Changkong changed instantly.
"Little Che, thank you so much!"
Lin Xue ran up to Jiang Che, tightly gripping his hand with gratitude filling her eyes.
Although Lin Xue had given birth to Ye Mengyao, she still looked very young, almost indistinguishable from his own stepmother - a typical wealthy housewife.
In his previous life, Jiang Che had seduced countless such socialites with his silver tongue.
But after his rebirth, he had learned his lesson and decided to stop being a womanizer.
"It's nothing. I would have saved anyone in that situation."
Jiang Che's attitude was rather cold, maintaining a distant demeanor.
Lin Xue sighed helplessly, glancing at her daughter and then at Jiang Che.
Daughter, mom will help you one more time!
"Little Che, our Mengyao has been spoiled by us parents, but she's not bad at heart. I was the one who forbade her from dating before graduation..."
Her great maternal love made her willing to take all the blame herself.
Ye Mengyao gave her mother a grateful look.
Ye Changkong's gaze toward Jiang Che was also filled with complexity - he hadn't expected his precious daughter's savior to be Jiang Che.
"Little Che, our Ye family will personally come to thank you in a few days."
Ye Changkong understood... Jiang Che still harbored resentment toward his daughter, and he could also see... his daughter actually had feelings for Jiang Che.
"Honey, take Mengyao to the hospital for a checkup first. I'll stay here with Little Che."
Ye Changkong comforted his wife and daughter before coming to Jiang Che's side.
Several police officers crouched with grave expressions beside the fat man and Knife Brother's group - after all, people had died here, four of them at once, and one was even armed with a gun.
Just then, a familiar feminine figure emerged.
"Hm? Jiang Che, why are you here?"
Wang Yanran was surprised to see Jiang Che... and her cheeks turned slightly red.
"Oh? Sister Yanran?"
Jiang Che smiled. Wang Yanran was wearing a police uniform today, her hair neatly tied back, looking valiant and spirited. Even the police uniform couldn't conceal her impressive figure.
"What 'Sister Yanran'..." Ye Mengyao muttered quietly, feeling very jealous.
She certainly recognized this well-endowed woman - the one she had seen being intimate with Jiang Che when she was spying outside the Jiang family villa.
She was actually a police officer? And she had such a close relationship with Jiang Che?
This completely overturned Ye Mengyao's jar of jealousy.
"Daughter, let's go!"
Lin Xue knew her daughter too well and directly pulled Ye Mengyao away.
Yu Wan'er naturally didn't stay either and followed them to the hospital, though before leaving... she sized up Wang Yanran, then looked down at her own modest figure.
She hated well-endowed women.
......
"Did you kill all these people?"
Wang Yanran frowned, questioning Jiang Che.
"Yes, what about it?"
"Heh... do you think I'm stupid? You killed four well-trained kidnappers with your bare hands? One of them even had a gun?"
Wang Yanran clearly didn't believe it.
Jiang Che sighed, knowing he'd have to demonstrate to make them believe.
He directly threw a punch at a nearby stone pillar.
"Bang—" A muffled sound rang out.
The reinforced concrete pillar actually developed a bowl-sized fist imprint, several centimeters deep, with spider web-like cracks spreading across its surface.
This punch immediately dropped everyone's jaws.
"A martial artist? Jiang Che, you're a martial artist?"
Martial artists weren't particularly mysterious in this world - many people claimed to be martial artists to deceive others, and every year many people were tragically scammed.
Although Wang Yanran was very curious about how Jiang Che became a martial artist, she quickly suppressed her curiosity.
Her expression returned to its cool demeanor.
"Since you're a martial artist, that explains it. But people died... Jiang Che, you'll still need to come to the police station with us to see what the autopsy report says..."
Jiang Che wasn't worried - he had cleaned up the scene thoroughly, and with Ye Mengyao's testimony, even if Lin Yu woke up... he couldn't cause much trouble.
......
At the police station, Jiang Che appeared particularly at ease.
Police Chief Wang Laiyun personally received him.
"Haha... who would have thought that Jiang Che would transform into a hero?"
Since that night he left the Jiang family, he had been viewing Jiang Che more and more favorably. Now that Jiang Che had performed this heroic rescue, he seemed like the perfect son-in-law candidate.
After Jiang Che exchanged pleasantries with Wang Laiyun for a while, Wang Yanran arrived.
"The report is out... Jiang Che, you can leave in a moment!"
Wang Yanran pursed her lips, "Hmph, who would have thought a little pervert like you would play hero? You must have taken a fancy to that girl, right?"
"Please, how could Ye Mengyao's figure compare to yours, Sister Yanran?"
"What are you saying... this is the police station! My father is right outside!"
Wang Yanran's eyes turned cold as she glared at Jiang Che.
Jiang Che sighed softly, his mood seemingly dropping.
"When I was fighting those criminals earlier... I was terrified. They had guns... if anything had gone wrong, I probably would have died there."
"Big sister, shouldn't you... give me a hug? A kiss? Comfort my fragile heart?"
The first half of his words made Wang Yanran feel somewhat sympathetic, but the latter half completely broke her composure.
Indeed, a pervert's nature never changes.
"Fine, I'll give you a hug."
Wang Yanran softened, seeing Jiang Che as just a slightly older boy.
But she clearly underestimated the audacity and courage of a deviant.

"You bastard!"
Wang Yanran's face reddened as she gritted her teeth!
But watching Jiang Che's departing figure... she unconsciously called out to him again.
"J-Jiang Che! Don't do such dangerous things again. You got lucky this time... even if you're a martial artist, can you stop bullets?"
Typical tough exterior with a soft heart.
Jiang Che smiled casually, just waving without looking back, "Remember to wipe your drool!"
"You jerk! Go die!"
Wang Yanran's momentary tenderness instantly vanished, leaving only a woman's cursing voice.
......
Back in his car, Jiang Che's palm curved slightly into a C-shape.
"This is ridiculous."
Wang Yanran truly lived up to her reputation as a hot female police officer!
Wang Yanran's feelings for him were now in an ambiguous state, or perhaps she had always had some emotional foundation for him, just separated by a thin paper window.
Lin Yu's hopes of connecting with Wang Yanran... were probably impossible now.
Most of that guy's early opportunities had been preemptively taken by him.
Moreover, after such a big incident... wouldn't Ye Changkong cause trouble for Lin Yu?
Whether he could even stay at Shilan School was still a question!
