Sometimes, Jiang Che really envied Lin Yu.
Being the protagonist was indeed different, with all sorts of opportunities falling from the sky.
Just casually saving an old man while walking could turn out to be the father of the Education Bureau director, as if the heavens were feeding him.
"Oh, so it's because the Education Bureau director is helping you? Well, I'm really scared!"
Jiang Che shrugged and put on a scared expression.
Seeing Jiang Che 'cowering,' Lin Yu spoke arrogantly.
"Jiang Che, you better return my jade pendant and scroll to me right now, or your fate will be miserable."
Jiang Che, of course, didn't pay him any attention. "Oh my, I'm really scared!"
As he said that, he took out a yellowish jade pendant and dangled it in front of Lin Yu, who immediately reached out to grab it.
"Oh? You can't get it! I'm just showing it to you... just teasing you!"
Jiang Che's mischievous voice relentlessly taunted Lin Yu's nerves.
But Lin Yu didn't dare to confront Jiang Che now.
He was well aware that he couldn't beat him anymore. This guy... was already a master of the late stage of Dark Force, while Lin Yu had just stepped into the mid stage of Dark Force.
“Jiang Che, do you know who my master is? He's an existence at the peak of the Transform Force. When my master comes out of seclusion, it will be your death sentence.”
Lin Yu viciously threw out a threat.
A few classmates nearby couldn't hold back their laughter.
“Haha, this guy really knows how to blow things out of proportion! Transform Force pinnacle? Why don't you say your master is a Grandmaster?”
"Alright, alright, let's not pay attention to him. This guy is just a lunatic. Don't you remember his breakdown during the self-criticism meeting?"
"How could I forget? It's the first time I've ever seen someone bark like a dog in public!"
Lin Yu couldn't take it anymore, clenching his teeth in anger.
Just then, a graceful figure approached Jiang Che.
"Jiang Che, I've finished your homework for you," Ye Mengyao shyly approached Jiang Che.
Lin Yu's gaze was instantly drawn to Ye Mengyao, his eyes growing dazed and misty. She's so beautiful...
Ye Mengyao seemed even more beautiful now.
Ye Mengyao also noticed Lin Yu's gaze and frowned. "Are you the bodyguard my father hired for me?"
Lin Yu was overjoyed. Ye Mengyao was actually talking to him?
"Yes, yes! I'm the bodyguard your father hired to protect you secretly."
Ye Mengyao scoffed. "Hmph, do I need a useless person like you to protect me? What did you do when I was kidnapped?"
Lin Yu panicked. "Mengyao, it was me who protected you! I fought the thugs desperately and even got shot. Jiang Che is just a shameless opportunist."
As he explained, Lin Yu glared viciously at Jiang Che, wishing he could kill him on the spot.
Ye Mengyao was furious. Her feelings for Jiang Che were unshakable!
"Shut up! Go look at yourself in the mirror. What kind of person are you?" Ye Mengyao's language skills still needed improvement.
A lady of her stature rarely used vulgar language.
Lin Yu was completely stunned. Compared to Jiang Che's loud curses, Ye Mengyao's insults were sharp knives cutting into his heart.
"Mengyao..."
"You're not worthy of calling me that. I don't even remember your name..."
"And stop looking at me like that. Your gaze makes me sick."
Although Ye Mengyao disliked Lin Yu, she wouldn't normally say such hurtful things.
But anyone could see that Lin Yu had a conflict with Jiang Che, so she naturally sided with Jiang Che.
At that moment, Yu Wan'er walked past Lin Yu, and the little girl muttered softly, "Idiot."
"Look at yourself. You're as ugly as a upside-down scallion. How dare you even think of chasing my Mengyao sister?"
Lin Yu: "......"
He felt like he had never been so tormented before, as if the entire world was against him.
And so, the so-called "Chosen One" was actually driven to tears... and ran away!
After Lin Yu left, Jiang Che's lips curled into a smile.
This so-called "Chosen One" had a fragile mindset.
Jiang Che's smile was just caught by Ye Mengyao, and the young girl, accustomed to overthinking, began to...
What can you do with a Transform Force peak master as your teacher?
Both of his masters were currently unavailable, and even if they came out... he wasn't afraid of them. After all, he wasn't without his own backing.
His estranged mother... had an extraordinary background!
She was the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family in the Capital City. Although Jiang Yunli herself didn't practice ancient martial arts, she was backed by a colossal force.
In the original storyline, he had recklessly provoked Lin Yu and was eventually killed with a single punch.
Jiang Yunli was devastated, and the Jiang Family was furious. Lin Yu almost got killed, and it was only because his master sent him abroad to avoid the storm... otherwise, he would have been finished.
Later, Lin Yu returned from abroad after achieving great things, bound the God of War template, and used the jade pendant's designated marriage contract to become the son-in-law of a hidden noble family, returning to the Dragon Country to destroy the Jiang Family.
Basically, it was a classic tale.
......
At noon, Liu Tie and Wang Zheng came to Jiang Che to report on the 'battle situation.'
“Jiang Shao, this morning, I took advantage of Lin Yu's distraction and... hehehe... put something in his water cup. Although he smelled it, he still drank a mouthful. Hehehe...”
Wang Zheng's face was full of fat as he laughed.
Damn, fatty fatty, stay away from me. I can never look at a water cup the same way again.
Liu Tie looked at Wang Zheng with disgust.
"But Jiang Shao, we did what you told us a couple of days ago, and this guy hasn't been able to show off successfully."
Jiang Che glanced at the two. Although they looked a bit brainless, they were quite good at messing with people.
"Hmm, you guys must have heard by now? Lin Yu said the Education Bureau director got him in."
As soon as Jiang Che spoke, Liu Tie understood.
"Jiang Shao, are you saying... the Education Bureau director abused his power? Wanting to take him down?"
Jiang Che nodded. Liu Tie's reaction was pretty quick, a good material for a little villain.
“Jiang Shao, I happen to know a few friends at the news agency. With the internet being so developed, we can expose him online, buy some trending topics, and definitely take him down...”
“And anyone who can become an Education Bureau director must have some dirt on them, like using their position to help people get in through the back door. It’s just the ways of the world... hard to avoid. These things can be overlooked if they’re small, but if you blow them up...”
Jiang Che thoughtfully looked at Liu Tie and coughed.
"Ahem... I didn't say anything."
Liu Tie smiled knowingly. "Jiang Shao, I've never liked Lin Yu."
Meanwhile, Wang Zheng was still confused. He had gone a bit overboard messing with Lin Yu in the morning and was now feeling a bit exhausted and mentally drained, his brain having stopped functioning.
