Chapter 163
“Why be so polite to me?” Jiang Che fondly patted Jiang Yuner’s little head, and they exchanged doting glances.
Ji Menglan couldn’t stand it any longer. Watching them act as if she was invisible and flirt with each other made her uncomfortable. For some reason, seeing these two so close made her feel a bit uneasy.
Ji Menglan now understood that Jiang Yuner’s rapid improvement in cultivation was due to Jiang Che’s help.
“It’s all thanks to you that Yun’er can improve her cultivation so quickly, isn’t it?” Ji Menglan said in a sour tone, her eyes filled with resentment.
She had been treated by this king many times but had seen no benefits. Ji Menglan felt that her relationship with Jiang Che was good enough, so why was this bastard so biased?
“Why, do you want to learn too?” Jiang Che raised his brows and looked at Ji Menglan with a playful smile, feeling a bit pleased.
It seemed that his continuous treatment was having an effect; at least this woman’s misogyny was almost gone.
“Of course I want to learn. Can I?” Ji Menglan looked at Jiang Che expectantly. Who wouldn’t want a quick way to improve their cultivation?
“I want a daughter…” Jiang Che didn’t answer her question but instead said something out of the blue.
“You want a daughter?” Ji Menglan was stunned for a moment, then responded speechlessly. “If you want a daughter, tell your wife. What’s the use of telling me?”
Did this guy think of her as his woman? Ji Menglan’s thoughts ran wild, and two red glows quickly appeared on her face, making her look very attractive. Jiang Che looked at Jiang Yuner and repeated himself.
“Yuner, I want a daughter…”
“Dad~” Jiang Yuner’s big, smart eyes were filled with a well-behaved look, and she said softly.
“Do you now understand the gap between yourself and Yun’er?” Jiang Che raised his brows, looked at Ji Menglan playfully, and asked.
This woman always thought about getting something for nothing.
“You… you’re shameless!” Ji Menglan’s face turned red, and she spat quietly.
Now she understood what Jiang Che meant. How could he expect her to call him dad? How shameless! When it came to such a principled issue, Ji Menglan chose not to back down.
Although she had called him that a few times before, it was always under Jiang Che’s coercion. Moreover, she wasn’t as bold as Jiang Yuner. There were many maids in the living room at this time.
“You just need to understand the gap between you and Yun’er. When you’re willing, I’ll pass on the techniques to you.” Jiang Che calmly withdrew his hand, glanced at Ji Menglan, and said.
Anyway, there was no rush for this. This woman had been subtly changing, probably without even noticing it.
Jiang Che needed a subordinate who would always be loyal to him and be his sharpest sword. Obviously, the current Ji Menglan didn’t have this kind of awareness.
Once she has this awareness, he would help her build up her cultivation base.
Jiang Yuner’s agile eyes were rolling around, and her eyes were full of slyness when she looked at Ji Menglan. She probably also saw her senior sister’s thoughts and knew that the other party also liked her brother. But due to her arrogance, she didn’t want to admit it.
“Senior sister, everything should be done on a first-come, first-served basis. You’ll have to call me sister in the future!” Jiang Yuner said with a small, serious face.
“What are you saying?” Ji Menglan looked at Jiang Yuner in confusion, not understanding why she suddenly said such a thoughtless thing.
“I know you like Brother too, but I liked him first. I was earlier than you, so you have to call me sister. In the future, we can discuss this. I’ll call you sister, and you can call me junior sister.”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Ji Menglan glared at Jiang Yuner angrily. Although she had developed some different feelings for Jiang Che after a period of treatment, she would never admit it.
It’s embarrassing to say such a thing… Could it be that she had some special character?
Thinking of this, Ji Menglan frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.
“I’m not talking nonsense. We’ll just discuss it in the future.” Jiang Yuner pouted, trying to reason with Ji Menglan, but the latter was already lost in thought and didn’t hear a word.
This made the little girl very upset! This bad senior sister will bully people!
But she didn’t bother with Ji Menglan too much. After saying goodbye to Jiang Che, she went straight out of the living room door. Her father had called her several times just now, urging her to go home quickly.
Jiang Che glanced at Ji Menglan, then turned to his study on the second floor.
In his free time, he liked to read famous novels to cultivate his sentiments. Now that Chen Feng had not returned and the plot hadn’t started, he had a rare two days of leisure.
In the study on the second floor, Jiang Che asked the maid to make him a pot of tea. Just as he was about to pick up the book he hadn’t finished last time, he inadvertently glanced at the phone on the table. Jiang Che’s eyes were deeply attracted.
He vaguely saw the words “blue and white porcelain” and “sunny day.”
Jiang Che clearly remembered that he had searched for these songs when he first arrived and found that Jay Chou didn’t exist in this world.
So now that these song titles had appeared, the meaning was somewhat obvious. There must be some protagonist, like Wen Duo Gong.
(TL: The term Wen Duo Gong translates to “Plagiarist” or “Literary Thief” in English. This term is used to describe someone who copies the works of others and presents them as their own, often to gain fame or fortune. In the context of the provided passage, it refers to a character archetype that steals literary or artistic works, such as songs, and uses them to achieve success.)
Jiang Che picked up his phone and glanced at it, feeling a little surprised. He had guessed right.
This new singer named Song Tao had written out Jay Chou’s songs like “Sunny Day,” “Blue and White Porcelain,” and “Clock in the Opposite Direction,” then sang them himself.
He wrote more than a dozen songs within a month, each becoming very popular, and he was a daily hot searcher. Within a month, he gained countless fans and became the god of Chinese music.
Putting down the phone, a playful smile appeared on Jiang Che’s mouth. This Song Tao would come to Jiang City to perform on tour in two days. Of course, he couldn’t miss this opportunity.
Although this type of copywriter protagonist didn’t pose any real threat to him, and the villain value he could smash was very small, even a small amount was still meat!
As a qualified capitalist, he had to learn to extract all the value from a person!
