Good heavens, what kind of situation is this!

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Hu complained bitterly.

Even if he had ten thousand times the courage, he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Jiang Cheng.

"This is outrageous! That bastard dares to make a move on you, Young Master Jiang, which means he's making a move on me, Zhao Hu."

Zhao Hu's expression changed instantly, and he spoke coldly.

"This is simply disrespecting my Heavenly Tiger Gang. Don't worry, Young Master Jiang, I'll find someone to send him to his death right away."

"No, it would be outrageous for me to do it myself!"

Jiang Cheng said calmly, "Don't rush, how much money are they planning to spend?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu was taken aback at first, then spoke.

"Ten million. They didn't say who they would take care of. They said they would discuss it in person today."

"If I had known earlier, I would have sent him to see Grandma without you having to say anything."

Then, he put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look and said, "Young Master Jiang, I'm leaving right now to take care of him."

This dim-witted guy is in a hurry!

Jiang Cheng sighed helplessly, "Since they're offering money, there's no reason not to accept it."

What do you mean?

Zhao Hu's eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited.

He loves taking money and not doing anything.

"You get paid, and whatever the other party wants you to do, you do."

"Clear!"

Zhao Hu chuckled lewdly and muttered under his breath, "I think this is called 'Shifting Stars and Changing Constellations'?"

Jiang Cheng's lips twitched as he hung up the phone. What the hell is this "shifting of stars" nonsense!

That's called using their own methods against them.

After quickly packing up, Jiang Cheng left the Jiang Family.

He'd been back for a few days, and if he didn't go check on Shen Xiyue soon, he'd be in danger.

Last night, he dreamt of a tragic scene where he cried out to heaven and earth in vain.

As for Li Yuncong, he didn't have time to deal with such a small fry; he could leave it to Zhao Hu.

Meanwhile, in the backyard of the villa.

Shen Xiyue was wearing a purple sports vest, revealing her clearly defined abs.

Two long legs were crossed, as if he was giving instructions.

In front of him, Song Qingyan was dressed in a white training uniform, her ponytail tied high, making her look capable and neat.

"Sister Xiyue, how are you?"

Slowly exhaling, Song Qingyan stood up.

Shen Xiyue smiled and said, "That's right, your Mid Grandmaster realm is now completely stable."

"Sigh, she's still far inferior to Sister Xiyue."

Song Qingyan sighed softly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiyue remained silent.

Her ability to cultivate so quickly is largely due to her previous life.

After all, in her previous life, she had already walked this path by cultivating recklessly in order to seek revenge.

This time, it was a natural progression!

Otherwise, no matter how talented she is, she could not have reached the Grandmaster so quickly.

Regaining her composure, Shen Xiyue looked at Song Qingyan and smiled.

"Jiang Cheng is coming. Go change your clothes quickly."

"Real?"

Song Qingyan's eyes were full of joy and anticipation.

Since arriving in Jiang Cheng, she has only met Jiang Cheng a handful of times.

At this rate, when will she be able to fulfill her wish?

Shen Xiyue nodded.

Actually, she already knew about it after Jiang Cheng returned from Capital.

Several days passed, and he still hadn't come to see her, which made her quite angry.

If they don't come soon, she's planning to go and see for herself and resort to force.

Upon receiving a positive answer, Song Qingyan could not hide her excitement and hurriedly returned to her room.

Before long, they had changed their clothes.

Even a simple white short-sleeved shirt and denim skirt are enough to attract attention.

Ding-dong, the doorbell rang.

"Go open the door, look how anxious you are."

Shen Xiyue rolled her eyes at Song Qingyan and sat on the sofa, speaking calmly.

But the occasional glances he made toward the door betrayed his longing.

See through it but don't say it!

Song Qingyan smiled slightly, then strode over to the door.

At the same time, Jiang Cheng looked at Song Qingyan who opened the door and revealed a gentle smile.

"Qingyan".

Then, the focus shifted to the interior of the house.

At a glance, I spotted Shen Xiyue leaning back on the sofa, her expression indifferent.

He secretly thought to himself that things were going badly, and he would have to spend a lot of money to appease this girl again.

"Jiang Cheng, come in quickly."

Song Qingyan's eyes flickered as she noticed Jiang Cheng's gaze, and she felt a slight disappointment in her heart.

He quickly composed himself, made an excuse to go upstairs, and gave the two of them some time together.

Only after Song Qingyan's figure disappeared did Jiang Cheng take a deep breath and call out to Shen Xiyue.

"Oh, even a busy person like you has time to come here? I thought you'd forgotten your old flame once you found someone new."

Shen Xiyue crossed her arms and teased.

Instantly, the room was filled with a strong smell of vinegar.

Cough cough~

Jiang Cheng coughed awkwardly twice, "What are you saying? I told you as soon as I got back."

"Besides, where would I find a new love?"

As he spoke, he sat down next to Shen Xiyue.

He reached out and wrapped his arm around her stunning waist, refusing to let go despite Shen Xiyue's token resistance.

"You still dare to say you didn't."

Shen Xiyue slowly placed her hand on Jiang Cheng's waist.

But he quickly withdrew his composure, letting out a soft sigh.

"That's true. Someone like me can't compare to Bai Weiwei's gentleness."

"That's true."

Jiang Cheng nodded subconsciously.

Instantly, I felt a piercing gaze fall upon me.

She quickly replied, "What I mean is, you are you, and I like you no matter what your personality is like."

"Wait, you knew all along?"

Realizing what had happened, Jiang Cheng stared awkwardly at Shen Xiyue.

He was planning to wait for a suitable opportunity to discuss it further, but it seems that's no longer necessary.

Hearing this, Shen Xiyue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "What do you think?"

She didn't have any objections to Bai Weiwei.

One more or one less won't make a difference.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng understood that Shen Xiyue had accepted it, and immediately began to praise her incessantly.

"Stop with the nice words, I'm not buying it."

Even so, Shen Xiyue couldn't help but smile.

Then she slowly uttered, "How about we do something practical? Come with me for a walk today."

Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Jiang Cheng's lips twitched.

He knew from the secret passage that what was bound to happen would happen eventually.

Justice may be delayed, but it will never be absent!

Having not seen him for so long, Shen Xiyue is bound to squeeze every last drop of value out of him.

Although I had a brief respite last night, it was far from enough to face Grandmaster.

However, upon hearing the second half of the sentence, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest.

"Let's go, we have to go. Wherever you say we're going, we'll go."

Hmph~ You really think you can escape?

Innocent!

Seeing Jiang Cheng's relieved smile, Shen Xiyue slowly curled her red lips.

She's no saint; she's not going to leave without leaving something behind.

However, she was still kind-hearted, so she decided to make Jiang Cheng happy for now.

"Let's invite Qingyan to come along."

I couldn't ask for this!

Jiang Cheng agreed without hesitation.

That should ensure everything goes perfectly, right?

With Song Qingyan around, this girl will probably tone it down a bit.
