"You officials and businessmen are in cahoots!"

Xiao Chen was consumed with rage. His eyes bulged, his teeth clenched, and a faint flush appeared on his dark face. He was nearly angered to death!

This world really was dark...

He had neither power nor influence. Did that mean he had to let that bastard Jiang Che bully him?

"Watch your language..."

"Otherwise, the body camera will run out of battery again!"

A police officer behind Wang Mu spoke coldly, raising the stun baton in his hand as a warning.

They had seen plenty of troublemakers like Xiao Chen and naturally had their own ways of dealing with them.

"Verbally insulting a public servant is an aggravated offense!"

Another police officer chimed in at the right moment.

That single sentence instantly silenced Xiao Chen, even though he was so furious he wanted to cough up blood.

But circumstances were against him. No matter how overwhelming his fury was, he had no choice but to endure it.

He had already experienced the 100,000 Volts stun baton once. He had no desire to try it again.

"I want to request legal counsel!"

Taking a deep breath and suppressing the rage in his heart, Xiao Chen spoke in a low voice.

What a joke. Make him compensate Jiang Che with one billion in medical expenses?

How could that be possible!

Even if he threw all one billion away, he would never give it to that bastard Jiang Che.

By now, Xiao Chen had completely realized that this was clearly a trap Jiang Che had set for him beforehand. The purpose was to get him locked up here.

Xiao Chen refused to believe that lawyers could not get him out of here.

As long as the money was enough, plenty of people would be willing to do the job.

"Of course. That is your right..."

After returning to Qingteng Villa and parking the car, a string of system notifications rang out in Jiang Che's mind.

After being sent in this time, Xiao Chen had contributed a full thirty thousand Emotion Points to Jiang Che.

That showed just how furious the guy was right now.

Faced with the astronomical compensation of one billion, Xiao Chen naturally would not submit easily. But Jiang Che was not worried in the slightest. He had plenty of ways to make Xiao Chen obediently comply.

Scamming the one billion RMB from Xiao Chen was only the first step of the plan.

Once Xiao Chen got out of the station, the real show would only just begin.

"I'm fifty thousand Emotion Points away from a ten-pull. I still need to keep working..."

After checking today's gains, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction, his mood excellent.

He took out his phone and directly called his grandfather.

After leaving the Jiang Family last time, the old man had urgent business and had long since returned to the Imperial Capital.

Now that he needed the old man's help with something, Jiang Che naturally would not stand on ceremony.

After a brief busy signal, the call was quickly answered, and a vigorous voice came through.

"Hello?"

"Grandson, why do you have time to call your grandpa?"

"Spit it out if you've got something to say!"

"Your grandpa is busy right now!"

Jiang Jianguo spoke bluntly and did not stand on ceremony with Jiang Che at all.

Jiang Che had long since grown accustomed to this. Knowing the old man's time was precious, he did not beat around the bush and directly stated his intentions.

"Grandpa, how much influence does our family have overseas?"

As one of Jiuzhou Country's leading conglomerates, the Star Dome Group had many branches throughout the world. Jiang Che naturally knew that.

But he did not know exactly how much influence the Jiang Family had overseas.

"Why are you asking that?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end before Jiang Jianguo's somewhat hesitant voice came through.

"It's nothing. There's a guy named Xiao Chen who offended me..."

"He's the leader of a mercenary group in Africa called the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group..."

"Your grandson wants to borrow the family's power to eliminate this Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, which is why I'm asking."

Jiang Che did not hide anything and directly laid out all the rotten things Xiao Chen had done abroad.

The Blood Wolf Mercenary Group committed every kind of evil in Africa. Its mercenaries were all desperadoes from various countries, no good people by any means.

Jiang Che would not feel the slightest psychological burden from killing them.

"Although the Jiang Family's overseas influence is not as great as it is in Jiuzhou Country, crushing a tiny mercenary group won't be a problem."

"Just wait for my news on this matter!"

"Anything else? If not, I'm hanging up..."

"Oh, right, Grandpa. Remember to send me a copy of Xiao Chen's file."

Jiang Che hurriedly added.

Although he possessed the God-Tier Hacking Skill and could rely on his own abilities to infiltrate government agencies and access classified files, Jiang Che would not do such a thing. He still had principles.

"Got it. I'll have someone deliver it to you..."

Jiang Jianguo responded, then directly hung up.

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen, are you ready to receive the grand gift I've prepared for you?"

Jiang Che let out a sinister chuckle inwardly, then called Qiang Zi and gave him a few instructions.

"After Xiao Chen gets locked up tonight, remember to arrange a few masters of swordsmanship for him. Let him experience what it feels like to face adversity head-on!"

"Don't worry, Young Master. I'll make sure Xiao Chen has an unforgettable night!"

After making the arrangements, Jiang Che headed straight toward the villa.

He did not see Xiao Yi in the living room or the bedroom. After asking a maid, he learned that the little girl was practicing in the back garden. Without hesitation, Jiang Che quickly made his way there.

The sun was setting in the west, and the remaining glow of dusk spilled across the earth, casting scattered halos of light.

Xiao Yi wore a long purple dress. Her silky black hair fluttered in the wind, and her expression was cool and detached as she meticulously practiced the various footwork principles of Tread Snow Without a Trace.

Under the sunset, Xiao Yi's breathtaking figure resembled a butterfly dancing gracefully through the air. Her movements flowed seamlessly from one to the next, elegant enough to please the eye.

Jiang Che did not make a sound to interrupt her. He simply watched quietly.

After finishing her practice, Xiao Yi stopped. When she casually glanced back, she finally noticed Jiang Che's presence.

A trace of indescribable emotion flickered in the purple-clad little girl's eyes as she took small steps toward Jiang Che.

No matter how cold her personality was, she was still human.

After what had happened last night, Xiao Yi had developed an inexplicable sense of attachment to Jiang Che.

"How did your training go? Was it smooth?"

Jiang Che naturally reached out and wrapped an arm around Xiao Yi's slender, boneless waist, smiling as he asked.

Xiao Yi gently shook her head. As one of the finest lightness techniques, Tread Snow Without a Trace was clearly not something that could be mastered overnight.

Even with her considerable talent, after practicing for an entire afternoon, she had only grasped a little of the basics. She had not even reached the introductory stage.

"Cultivation was never something accomplished overnight. You need to balance work and rest..."

"Otherwise, I'll worry about you, my little darling~"

Jiang Che lowered his head and leaned close to the little girl's ear, speaking softly in a low voice.

Then, he kissed Xiao Yi's delicate earlobe.

Although Xiao Yi's expression remained calm, her heart was far less peaceful than she appeared. She was thoroughly flustered.

She was merely cold by nature and did not understand how to express her feelings. Naturally, she still had ordinary emotional fluctuations.

[Xiao Yi's heart stirred, Emotion Points +3344...]

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Jiang Che smiled softly.

Teasing this cool and aloof, emotionless girl always brought Jiang Che plenty of amusement. He found it rather fun.

"It's getting late. Let's go back and eat..."
