Because of Jiang Cheng, the two women quickly reached an agreement.

"There's one more thing. Mu Qingcheng and Li Shiyao may have been reborn too. You know what that means, right?"

Jiang Ruoxue was startled.

There might be more than just four people who had been reborn!

That would be troublesome. Though they had been able to work together to avenge Jiang Cheng in their previous lives...

Given another chance at life, who wouldn't want Jiang Cheng all to herself?

At the very least, as for that woman in the Capital, Jiang Cheng would probably have to speak personally to persuade her.

"Proceed according to plan."

Leaving those words behind, Shen Xiyue turned and left.

Jiang Ruoxue felt an intense sense of crisis and secretly made up her mind. She was going to move into the Jiang Family home!

Elsewhere, Jiang Cheng arrived at the Bai Family carrying two bottles of wine.

"This garden's style really suits Brother Bai's taste."

Surrounded by rocks, water, and trees, Jiang Cheng sighed inwardly before calling into the courtyard,

"Brother Bai, I'm here!"

Bai Shouzhong, who had been talking with Bai Weiwei, was delighted and hurried out at a jog.

"That voice sounds young." Bai Weiwei's curiosity was piqued, and she followed behind Bai Shouzhong.

The moment he stepped out of the courtyard and saw what Jiang Cheng was holding, Bai Shouzhong's eyes lit up.

"Why bring gifts? You're too polite, little brother."

As he spoke, he naturally took the wine from Jiang Cheng's hands.

Bai Weiwei walked out and froze when she saw her grandfather calling a handsome young man his brother.

This is the master?

Why does he look so familiar?

"Weiwei, come here," Bai Shouzhong quickly called.

Jiang Cheng was slightly stunned as he looked at Bai Weiwei in her white qipao. Her figure was graceful, and her temperament gentle.

She exuded an air of scholarly refinement that was especially captivating!

But Jiang Cheng recovered in an instant. After all, he was used to seeing heroines like Mu Qingcheng, so he was not so easily flustered.

Bai Shouzhong took in Jiang Cheng's reaction and said with a low chuckle, "Little brother, my granddaughter is pretty, isn't she? How about becoming my grandson-in-law?"

Jiang Cheng stared at Bai Shouzhong in shock.

Good grief. I call you big brother, yet you want to become my grandpa?

The heroines have already given me enough headaches. I can't handle another one. At least wait until the heroines return to normal.

There was hope!

Bai Shouzhong was delighted when Jiang Cheng did not refuse, but he did not say anything more.

They were young. There was plenty of time.

He had great confidence in his granddaughter. Sooner or later, Brother Jiang would have to call him "Grandpa."

Thinking this happily, Bai Shouzhong turned to Bai Weiwei.

"Weiwei, what are you standing around for? Hurry up and call him Grandpa Jiang!"

"Grandpa... Jiang?" Bai Weiwei looked strange at first, then her beautiful eyes flashed as she exclaimed in surprise, "You're Jiang Cheng!"

Now it was Jiang Cheng's turn to be surprised. He seemed to have only met Bai Weiwei a few times, so how had she recognized him?

"Watch your manners."

Bai Shouzhong shot her an irritated glance. Brother Jiang was not his grandson-in-law yet, so they could not mess up the seniority.

"Classmate Bai, do we... know each other?"

"No." Bai Weiwei shook her head, but the curiosity in her eyes did not diminish.

In my previous life, I heard your name countless times.

So many outstanding women were devoted to you, never marrying for the rest of their lives.

Jiang Cheng, what kind of charm do you have?

Being looked over from head to toe by Bai Weiwei made Jiang Cheng's scalp tingle.

If you don't know me, why are you staring at me like that?

Could Bai Weiwei be some kind of lovesick girl? The plot never mentioned it.

"Brother Jiang, don't just stand there. Come inside and let's talk."

Seeing the two getting along so well, Bai Shouzhong smiled in satisfaction and quickly ushered him in.

Whatever. I'm already here. Bai Weiwei isn't going to eat me, is she?

Gritting his teeth, Jiang Cheng headed inside.

At the Pavilion,

Bai Shouzhong and Jiang Cheng sat facing each other while Bai Weiwei poured tea for them.

"Brother Jiang, I wouldn't bear to bring out this Mother Tree Dahongpao for just anyone."

Jiang Cheng took a sip. It was good tea, but it tasted bland to him right now.

Bai Weiwei, could you stop staring at me? It's creepy.

"Brother Bai, let's get started early."

Jiang Cheng forced himself to speak. Bai Shouzhong was initially stunned, then glanced at the two of them and revealed a knowing smile.

"Fine. You young people have a good chat. This old man won't disturb you!"

How could Jiang Cheng and Bai Weiwei fail to understand such an obvious hint?

Brother Bai, you've misunderstood!

That's not what I meant. And Bai Weiwei, hurry up and explain!

Why are you blushing like a teapot?

Jiang Cheng felt like crying without tears. After Bai Shouzhong left, the two could only stare at each other.

"Um... Jiang Cheng, what should we learn first?"

Bai Weiwei spoke after hesitating for a moment.

Jiang Cheng thought for a while. "The flute."

"Jiang Cheng, you can play the flute?" Bai Weiwei was clearly surprised, instantly growing interested. "Is it because you like it?"

Glancing at Bai Weiwei's excited expression, Jiang Cheng shook his head. "No."

"Then why?"

After all, learning the flute was not easy. It was hard to stick with it without genuine interest.

"Because it's convenient for showing off!"

Jiang Cheng blurted it out. Wasn't this much easier to carry around than a piano or guitar?

He could play a tune anytime, anywhere. It was simply the perfect tool for showing off.

"Are you ready?"

Bai Weiwei nodded, her expression serious.

"Then I'll begin!"

Jiang Cheng held the flute horizontally to his lips. As his fingers alternated over the holes, a crisp and melodious sound rang out.

As expected of a qualified Villain, Jiang Cheng's talents were fully maxed out.

Bai Weiwei's eyes shone as she looked at Jiang Cheng's handsome face, and her pretty cheeks could not help turning red.

Wasn't this exactly what her ideal partner looked like? High mountains and flowing waters, harmonious music and hearts in tune!

She unconsciously began plucking the strings, joining Jiang Cheng in a duet like a pair of Golden Boy and Jade Girl.

Just as the two entered a state of complete immersion, a figure not far away was secretly recording them on his phone.

Bai Shouzhong stroked his beard and watched Jiang Cheng and Bai Weiwei with a beaming smile, his hands never stopping.

"This time, those old geezers are going to die of envy!"

Three, two, one. Time was up.

Ding ding ding~

The phone began vibrating nonstop.

Bai Shouzhong opened the group chat named "Sunset Old Baby."

Jinling Old Ghost: "Old Bai, that's Weiwei, right? Who's that young man beside her?"

Lingnan Ruffian: "Old Bai, hurry and introduce that young man to me. My granddaughter likes that type."

Kyoto Qin Buxiu: "Could he be this old man's grandson-in-law? I think this young man is a fine match."

Bai Shouzhong was so pleased by the messages that he could not stop smiling.

No need to respond. Let them be jealous!

Meanwhile, at the Qin Family of the Capital,

Old Man in Zhongshan Suit shook his head. "That Old Bai is like a child."

"But that young man really is impressive. He looks exactly like I did when I was young—handsome! Hahaha!"

"Grandpa, what has you so happy?"

A clear, pleasant voice came from outside the hall.

A tall woman with an elegant, noble bearing walked in on high heels.

Her white shirt wrapped around her curvaceous figure, revealing fair, delicate skin and exquisite features.

Old Man in Zhongshan Suit smiled and handed her his phone.

"Yan'er, your Grandpa Bai is showing off his grandson-in-law."

The moment Qin Yan saw the person in the video, her body stiffened, and the phone fell to the floor with a clang.

That person was Jiang Cheng!
