As a Dark Force expert, Jiang Che's five senses had been enhanced to an extraordinary level.
Naturally, he had long noticed a Little Wildcat spying on him.
But he did not make a fuss. So what if she watched him? Besides... it was time to make her anxious!
He had Ye Mengyao's little thoughts firmly in the palm of his hand.
As for Villain's Choice?
Did that even require a choice? Pick three without thinking!
Kick Wang Yanran out of the car? Wang Yanran was not some tsundere young lady.
As for being an honest man? That was even more impossible.
Look at the third option! After making a move, her favorability even increased.
Get it now? That was women for you!
And there was even a reward of Ten Years of Internal Energy?
Then don't blame me for being impolite.
"Sister Yanran, I heard Uncle Wang say just now... you've never been in a relationship?"
Jiang Che's words instantly left Wang Yanran embarrassed.
"What are you trying to do? Don't tell me you want to be my boyfriend, you brat!" Wang Yanran revealed a teasing smile.
In her eyes, Jiang Che was really just a little boy whose feathers had not even fully grown in.
"Sister Yanran... do you still remember playing house when we were kids?"
Jiang Che's sudden words made Wang Yanran's expression freeze. Then her entire face flushed crimson.
"Y-you... why do you still remember that?"
Jiang Che wore an innocent expression. "How could I not remember? I was only seven back then..."
"Y-you—you... you're not allowed to remember! Forget it! Forget it already!"
All of Wang Yanran's composure vanished, replaced by endless shame.
When they were children, kids often liked playing house—one pretending to be the father, the other the mother... it was perfectly normal. What was more, Wang Yanran had been at the age when young love first stirred, and she had been curious about the opposite sex.
So... those who knew, knew!
Wang Yanran had few stains on her record in this life... but whenever she recalled that one incident, she was so embarrassed she wanted to slap herself wildly, then bury her head in the sand.
"Sister Yanran, how could I forget? I was only seven back then! Still a cute little boy!"
"Don't say another word!!! I didn't even do anything to you!"
Wang Yanran had never been so mortified.
"But you left me with psychological trauma~"
Seeing Jiang Che's aggrieved expression, Wang Yanran wanted to slap him across the face.
"You're such an idiot!" She even slipped into dialect.
A classic case of insulting people when she got flustered!
"How about this, Sister Yanran? Give me a kiss."
"Kiss your big head! You must be dreaming in broad daylight!"
The Maybach's windows were not closed.
Ye Mengyao, standing in the distance, saw everything clearly.
The girl's mind buzzed, descending into utter chaos.
Even the invitation in her hand fell to the ground, while an indescribable sensation slowly spread from the depths of her heart.
It was sourness!
At some point, tears had filled her almond-shaped eyes.
She understood. In that instant, she understood her feelings for Jiang Che.
So this was not the sibling-like affection she had imagined. It was... love.
But Jiang Che was now with another woman... The girl's delicate body trembled without end. She bit her thin lips hard, her nails digging deeply into her flesh.
Had she truly... lost her chance?
She had fast-forwarded straight to the crematorium chase for a husband.
The sight was too piercing. Ye Mengyao ran away crying.
Before leaving, she picked up the invitation from the ground, as though she were gathering up her shattered heart.
"Huff... y-you, hurry up and drive! I'm going to be late for work!"
Wang Yanran glared at Jiang Che.
This guy... was such a bastard!
Jiang Che was in a good mood and did not answer her directly.
"Where's your police station?"
"Hangzhou New District Police Station," Wang Yanran replied irritably.
She even secretly pinched Jiang Che's thigh.
"Hm? Have you recently detained a guy named Lin Yu at your station?"
Wang Yanran frowned. "How do you know? He was detained for fighting... Don't tell me he's your classmate?"
"Yanran..."
"Don't call me Yanran..."
"When I was seven..."
"Fine, fine! Call me whatever you want!" Wang Yanran immediately gave in helplessly.
Jiang Che chuckled. One trick was enough to eat his fill everywhere!
"That Lin Yu was even planning to make a move against me! He targeted me on his very first day in class. It was completely baffling! I have no idea where he got that confidence from."
Wang Yanran could not help nodding.
"That's true. That Lin Yu even flirted with me when he first arrived at the station!"
Lin Yu's behavior these past few days had indeed marked him as an arrogant maniac, an utterly detestable fellow.
"Hah... ptooey! What a disgrace of a human being!"
And so... the two of them cursed Lin Yu all the way from the Jiang Family to the police station.
They picked apart every single flaw Lin Yu had.
"A-achoo! What's going on?"
Lin Yu, who was in the detention center, sneezed nonstop for more than ten minutes, nearly ruining his nose.
With the physique of a Dark Force expert, it was impossible for him to catch a cold.
"Someone must be cursing me! One hundred percent, it's that bastard Jiang Che!"
To be fair, the Son of Destiny's intuition was remarkably accurate. He guessed it in one shot.
But he had no mind to care about that now, because the hidden estate had opened!
The hidden estate only opened once every six years. If he missed it, he did not know how long he would have to wait.
And these past two days, he had been growing increasingly irritable. He always felt as though something that belonged to him had been lost.
"Damn it, I have to get out!"
Suddenly, he seemed to remember someone.
His eldest master was a divine physician who had spread goodwill everywhere in his youth. With his heaven-defying medical skills, he had saved countless wealthy and powerful people.
If he remembered correctly, there seemed to be an old man of considerable influence in Hangzhou.
"I need to make a call! I need to find someone!"
Lin Yu grew agitated once more.
