Chapter 115: I Only Want Your Body!
The next day, Alice groggily opened her eyes, her gaze falling on the chaos within the room. Recalling the events of the previous night, her expression turned icy.
She grabbed a fruit knife from the table and stabbed fiercely towards Jiang Che’s heart. However, her attempt was thwarted mere centimeters from his heart, as an awakened Jiang Che seized her wrist.
“Still want to kill me?” Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, his tone teasing.
“Jiang Che, you will not die a good death!” Alice’s eyes were cold as she stared at Jiang Che, her voice filled with undisguised murderous intent. She never imagined her most treasured possession would be taken away so unclearly by this man.
“Good people don’t live long, disasters linger for a thousand years. You’ll die before I do...” Jiang Che said cheerfully, getting up from the bed.
He now understood what exotic flavors really meant; this woman was indeed different from the women of Jiuzhou Country.
“Even if you got my body, you’ll never have my heart!”
“You’re thinking too much, getting your body is enough for me. You can leave now, I don’t want to kill you.” Jiang Che glanced at Alice and spoke, deciding it was better to let her go, considering he had already had his way.
Alice gave Jiang Che a cold look before limping away. She knew staying would only lead to further humiliation by Jiang Che.
...
“System, open the mystery box.” Jiang Che watched as Alice left and lit a cigarette, feeling quite refreshed.
He had to admit, the Dragon and Tiger Pill was quite effective; he felt unprecedented clarity for the first time in his twenty years.
“Opening the mystery box...”
“Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining ‘The Great Absorption Technique’.”
“The Great Absorption Technique?” Jiang Che paused, his expression turning peculiar. Could it be the same technique practiced by Ren Woxing in the TV shows from his previous life?
“System, introduce ‘The Great Absorption Technique’.”
” The Great Absorption Technique allows the user to absorb others’ internal Qi for their own use.”
The brief introduction amused Jiang Che. Just as he thought, encountering any protagonist would now turn them into nourishment for him.
“I’ll accept the plot of this story!” Excited by the potential of ‘The Great Absorption Technique,’ Jiang Che was eager to try it out on a protagonist.
“Transmitting plot...”
“Urban Master Descends from the Mountain” The story follows the protagonist Yang Wei, who returns from the mountains to propose marriage to Gu Yunqi, but she looks down on this country bumpkin.
“My father and grandfather are back. I need to go home for a while. Do you want to come with me?”
“This... You should go alone, Young Master.” After hearing Jiang Che’s invitation, Ah Qing seemed tempted but still shook her head.
“Why don’t you want to go with me?” Jiang Che found the girl’s behavior amusing.
“I’m just a maid. It’s better not to go to such occasions.” Ah Qing smiled and shook her head. Jiang Che rarely went home to reunite with his parents, and she didn’t want to disturb. Besides, she didn’t have the status to be there.
“Just because of that?” Jiang Che asked, somewhat speechlessly. After spending over a month together, he hadn’t expected Ah Qing to be so stubborn, seemingly resolved to be his maid for life.
“You don’t have to worry so much. Go change your clothes, and come with me.”
“But...” Ah Qing hesitated, seeming to want to say more.
“Quickly, or I’ll get angry!” Jiang Che said, feigning anger.
“Alright, Young Master, don’t be mad. I’ll go change now.”
Ten minutes later, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction at Ah Qing, who now wore a long white dress, exuding a sense of purity and desire.
“Let’s go...” Jiang Che drove his Maserati with Ah Qing to the Jiang family mansion.
...
Half an hour later, Jiang Che drove into the Jiang family courtyard. The security guards recognized their young master and did not stop him. Parking the car, Jiang Che took Ah Qing’s soft hand and walked towards the living room.
Servants greeted Jiang Che along the way.
“Young Master, good to see you...”
“Welcome home, Young Master...”
“Who is that woman with the Young Master? His fiancée?”
“No, she’s the Young Master’s maid, Ah Qing. I heard she’s already the Young Master’s woman.”
“She’s really turned into a phoenix from the ashes!”
Another maid commented sourly, knowing that even being Jiang Che’s woman in name was beyond their lifelong aspirations. Clearly, Jiang Che wasn’t interested in them.
“She’s just lucky, you can’t compare...”
Listening to the maids’ discussions, Ah Qing unconsciously tightened her grip on Jiang Che’s hand.
