Chapter 235: In My Eyes, You Are No Different from an Ant
“No, I’m going to handle some matters. A mine was discovered in Tianhai City. My mother asked me to go and take a share.” Jiang Che shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Shen Qingqiu nodded thoughtfully. She had heard about the situation in the neighboring Tianhai City. It wasn’t surprising to her that Jiang Che was going.
Her father had even suggested she join the fun, but Shen Qingqiu had declined. She managed the family business and didn’t have that much time. Besides, she knew this mine would never be connected to her Shen family.
Such a lucrative deal, with billions in net profits, wouldn’t fall into her lap. Only top-tier families like the Jiang family in the entire Jiuzhou would have the right to take a share. Outsiders dreaming of joining were just delusional!
That circle always consisted of the same people. After all, her ancestors didn’t climb snowy mountains or cross grasslands.
Being able to marry into the Jiang family was partly because she and Jiang Che had grown up together and Jiang Che, as the sole legitimate heir, had significant influence in the Jiang family. Additionally, her father was a close friend of Jiang Che’s father.
Otherwise, the position of Jiang Che’s fiancée would never have been hers, so she was very tolerant of Jiang Che finding other women.
Compared to Jiang Che’s background, she was still a step lower. In this world, people were divided into classes, and she had ultimately married up.
“You better not find other women behind my back this time!” Shen Qingqiu waved her small fist, revealing two small tiger teeth, threatening Jiang Che, looking adorably earnest.
Although she couldn’t change Jiang Che’s mind, she still needed to warn him. If Jiang Che found a bunch of women outside, she didn’t have the time to fight with them for him.
Just imagining that scene gave Shen Qingqiu a headache. Actually, it was fine for Jiang Che to find her junior sisters. At least, with her around, those little vixens wouldn’t cause too much trouble.
“Don’t worry, I love you so much, I definitely won’t find other women! Qingqiu, you’re so beautiful, I don’t have time to fool around outside.” Jiang Che looked into Shen Qingqiu’s eyes and said seriously.
He was a gentleman. Shen Qingqiu was his fiancée, how could he betray her? He, Jiang Che, the best man in Linjiang City!
“Hmph, a man’s mouth is full of lies.” Although she knew Jiang Che was bluffing and not to be trusted, Shen Qingqiu couldn’t help but enjoy hearing it!
After chatting a bit more with Shen Qingqiu, Jiang Che had the bodyguard carry the unconscious Li Tian out of the villa.
He planned to find a place to deal with this guy and then head to Tianhai City. After Jiang Che left, Shen Qingqiu turned around and went upstairs to her training room.
She felt that she was about to break through, almost reaching the peak of the Transformation stage!
Her cultivation had skyrocketed with his help, almost reaching the peak of the Transformation stage within half a year…
Thinking about it now, it still felt like a dream…
Jiang Che put Li Tian in the trunk and had the guard drive to a forest in the suburbs. He himself was chatting with Jiang Yun’er on the phone.
Jiang Che: [I need to go to Linjiang City for a few days. I probably won’t be back for a while. Don’t miss me.]
Jiang Yun’er: [Ah, brother, how long will you be gone? When will you be back?]
Jiang Che: [About ten days…]
Jiang Che thought for a moment and sent the message. This trip to Tianhai City would take some time, and he might even encounter the protagonist. It would take at least ten days to handle everything.
Jiang Yun’er: [Can I go with you, brother?]
Jiang Che: [If you want to go, of course, no problem.]
Jiang Che: [Pack your clothes, we leave tomorrow.]
Jiang Yun’er: [Okay, hehe, love you, brother.]
After finishing the chat with Jiang Yun’er, Jiang Che put down his phone and began to rest. He thought about what he needed to do in Tianhai City.
The Maybach drove smoothly on the road, heading towards a small forest in the suburbs.
An hour later, the Maybach stopped in the forest.
Jiang Che got out of the car and had the bodyguard take Li Tian out of the trunk.
“Wake him up.” Seeing Li Tian still unconscious, Jiang Che said, a bit annoyed.
He hadn’t used much force when he knocked Li Tian out at the Jiang house, yet this guy was still sleeping.
“Yes, Young Master.” The bodyguard complied, crouched down, and slapped Li Tian hard across the face.
He didn’t hold back, and the slaps were crisp and loud. The birds resting on the trees scattered at the loud sound.
“Ugh…” After a few slaps, Li Tian slowly opened his eyes.
Looking at the sky, his eyes were confused. Wasn’t he tied up by that guy named Jiang Che? Where was he now?
Li Tian struggled to get up from the ground and then froze. He couldn’t feel any inner energy in his body! Li Tian’s face was full of confusion. Before Jiang Che knocked him out, he could still feel his sealed inner energy, but now it was gone.
Looking up, he saw Jiang Che’s mocking face, and Li Tian’s expression turned grim. He was sure his condition was caused by this bastard!
“Jiang Che, where’s my cultivation?”
“I borrowed it. Now you’re useless, you can die. Kill him!” With a cold laugh, Jiang Che took out a cigarette, lit it, and instructed the bodyguard, then turned away.
His tone was indifferent, sending chills down one’s spine. He said it without a hint of hesitation, showing how dark his heart was.
“Yes, Young Master.” The bodyguard responded, pulled out his gun, and loaded it, pointing it at Li Tian.
“No… You can’t kill me!” Seeing the black muzzle, Li Tian’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was incredibly flustered.
He didn’t think he was joking. Otherwise, Jiang Che wouldn’t have brought him to such a deserted place! It was just to kill him and hide the body!
Without thinking, Li Tian turned and ran frantically in the opposite direction. If he had his cultivation, he wouldn’t fear a gun. But now he was just an ordinary person, so he had to run!
Unfortunately, he hadn’t run far when three gunshots rang out, and Li Tian fell to the ground. His fingers twitched slightly, then he stopped moving. Li Tian never thought this guy would kill him so decisively.
“Ding, congratulations to the host for killing the son of fortune, Li Tian, and earning a mysterious treasure chest ×1.”
“Ding, the system has detected that Li Tian is dead. The next protagonist has been arranged. Does the host accept?”
