Chapter 182: Lin Xiyan: You’re So Dominant, I Like It
The next day, Jiang Che drove a Lamborghini to the Lin family villa, took out his phone, and sent a message to Lin Xiyan, then waited quietly in the car.
This so-called Young Master Zhao from Modu was probably a protagonist, but whether he was a reborn or a transmigrator would only be known upon meeting him.
It didn’t take long for Lin Xiyan to walk out of the villa in cat-like steps and get into the sports car parked at the entrance.
“Where are we going?” After Lin Xiyan got in the car, Jiang Che asked curiously.
Lin Xiyan had only told him to come find her yesterday but hadn’t mentioned where to meet this Young Master Zhao.
“To Sheng Tian Restaurant in the city center. We arranged to meet there.” Lin Xiyan said while fastening her seatbelt. “What have you been busy with these past few days?”
“Nothing much, just handling some company matters. My family plans to let me take over the Jiang Corporation.” Jiang Che casually lied.
He couldn’t exactly say he’d been spending time with other women these past few days, could he? He knew this woman was quite the jealous type.
“That’s good. Once you graduate, you can become the president of the Jiang Corporation.” Lin Xiyan said with a smile, genuinely happy for Jiang Che.
Jiang Che didn’t say much more, driving Lin Xiyan towards Sheng Tian Restaurant, feeling quite eager to meet his new target.
At Sheng Tian Restaurant, Jiang Che parked the car in the parking lot, took Lin Xiyan, and walked into the restaurant, heading towards the reserved private room.
In the private room, Jiang Che and Lin Xiyan pushed the door open and walked in. Inside, there was already a young man in his early twenties.
He stood tall, with a handsome face. Although not as striking as Jiang Che, he was still a good-looking guy.
“Ding, protagonist information detected nearby. Would the host like to check it?”
“Check.” Jiang Che thought to himself, as expected, while replying to the system and discreetly glancing at the young man.
Protagonist: Zhao Qian
Identity: Eldest son of the Zhao family, one of the four major families in Modu
Cultivation: Peak Innate
Plot: “Rebirth of the Wealthy Young Master”
“Would the host like to accept the plot?”
“Do not accept.” Jiang Che immediately declined the system’s suggestion. Now was clearly not the time to accept the plot.
“Miss Lin, you’re here.” Seeing Lin Xiyan’s arrival, Zhao Qian smiled, looking very friendly.
As for Jiang Che beside Lin Xiyan, he automatically ignored him, assuming he was Lin Xiyan’s bodyguard.
A month ago, Lin Xiyan had gone on a business trip to Modu, where Zhao Qian saw her at a party and was instantly smitten.
After inquiring, he learned she was from the Lin family in Linjiang City, and since the Lin family also dealt in pharmaceuticals, Zhao Qian arranged for his family to initiate cooperation with the Lin family, leading to today’s meeting.
Since his rebirth into this world, his ambition was to conquer all the beauties in the world! Clearly, Lin Xiyan had become his target.
“Hello, Young Master Zhao…” Lin Xiyan gave a signature smile, pulled out a chair, and let Jiang Che sit down first before sitting beside him.
This scene made Zhao Qian frown slightly. He couldn’t understand Lin Xiyan’s behavior. Wasn’t this man her bodyguard?
“Are you Zhao Qian from the Zhao family in Modu?” Jiang Che glanced at him and asked indifferently.
It seemed this guy’s status was similar to his own, both being young masters of major families.
“That’s right, I’m Zhao Qian. Who are you?”
“I’m here to discuss business with Miss Lin. What are you doing here?” Zhao Qian asked with a frown. Jiang Che’s disdainful attitude made him very unhappy.
Having been reborn in this world for three years, Zhao Qian had gradually adapted to his identity. Wherever he went, people treated him with utmost respect. He didn’t expect this guy to disregard him so blatantly.
“Jiang Che of the Jiang family. Xiyan is my woman. What do you think I’m here for?” Jiang Che sneered.
Although the Zhao family had great prestige in Modu, this was Linjiang City, his territory, where Zhao Qian had no room to act recklessly.
Lin Xiyan blushed at Jiang Che’s straightforward words, feeling both shy and sweet inside. She hadn’t expected Jiang Che to give Zhao Qian such a warning right away, showing no regard for him.
She had invited Jiang Che over today out of fear of any trouble, given that the Zhao family was not someone she could afford to offend.
But Jiang Che’s domineering attitude reassured her, making her look at him with admiration.
“Jiang Che?” Zhao Qian was taken aback upon hearing Jiang Che’s name, feeling it was somewhat familiar.
After recalling for a moment, he remembered that before coming to Linjiang City, his family had warned him not to provoke the Jiang family, especially someone named Jiang Che.
They hadn’t explained why, but Zhao Qian hadn’t expected to run into him so soon. And Lin Xiyan was his woman? Why hadn’t he heard anything about this before?
“Kid, I warn you, stop those thoughts of yours, or you’ll end up in a terrible mess.” Jiang Che sneered, pulling Lin Xiyan by her delicate wrist and leaving the private room.
The entire negotiation took less than three minutes, and Lin Xiyan hadn’t even had a chance to say a word. Jiang Che didn’t intend to let Zhao Qian off the hook. He just had a better plan in mind.
Killing someone himself was boring; using someone else to do it was much more fun. Zhao Qian watched the two leave, his face livid, but he didn’t dare say a word.
He wasn’t foolish. Given that his family had repeatedly warned him not to provoke Jiang Che, the latter’s background was undoubtedly more terrifying than his own.
However, Zhao Qian couldn’t swallow this insult. A prime opportunity had just slipped through his fingers!
He was always the one threatening others, but today he was the one being threatened, which made him feel very frustrated.
“What an arrogant Jiang Che! Truly insolent!” Zhao Qian angrily smashed the teaware on the table to the ground, his face gloomy.
The bodyguards behind him were terrified, not daring to make a sound, afraid of provoking his wrath.
“Are we just leaving ? No negotiation?” Lin Xiyan asked, bewildered, as Jiang Che pulled her out of Sheng Tian Restaurant and into the parking lot.
She had invited Jiang Che to back her up, but she hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.
“No need to negotiate. That scumbag Zhao Qian has no good intentions.” Jiang Che sneered. On the way downstairs, he had accepted the plot from the system about this guy.
He knew Zhao Qian’s real intention was to trap the Lin family into a disadvantageous deal, forcing Lin Xiyan into submission. Since Zhao Qian liked to play dirty, Jiang Che would return the favor with a grand gesture!
Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Lin Xiyan nodded thoughtfully. She also felt Zhao Qian had ulterior motives, so it was better not to negotiate, as it wouldn’t harm the Lin family.
“What, are you upset?” Seeing Jiang Che’s stern face, Lin Xiyan smiled playfully and teased.
She hadn’t expected the notorious playboy to get angry over something , which showed he cared for her.
“You’re my woman. No one else can touch you. Let’s go. I’ll take you home and discuss some things with your grandfather.” Jiang Che said, getting into the Lamborghini’s driver’s seat, with Lin Xiyan following suit.
