Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses

A group of security guards rushed towards the crazed Ye Tian, trying to control him. However, as soon as they got close, they were instantly overwhelmed by the stench and several fell unconscious.

The remaining guards were unable to restrain Ye Tian due to his cultivation level, and they too suffered his toxic assault.

The scene grew increasingly chaotic and uncontrollable, prompting many distinguished guests to leave, not wanting their reputations tarnished.

“Ding, the host has plotted against Ye Tian, causing him to be socially annihilated on the spot. Awarded 2000 villain points.”

“Ding, Ye Tian’s luck decreases by 1000. Awarded 2000 villain points.”

“Let’s leave too,” suggested Lin Xiyue, standing up. Her purpose for attending was already achieved, and there was no point in staying.

Jiang Che glanced amusedly at the still-crazed Ye Tian, then, taking Lin Xiyue’s arm, they both left.

An hour later, Ye Tian finally snapped out of his insane state. Looking around at the chaotic scene, the unconscious men beside him, and the lingering stench, his face turned awkward.

Although he had been out of his mind, he remembered everything he had done. It was utterly embarrassing!

“Zixu… I…” Ye Tian tried to speak, but was cut off by Liu Zixu’s fearful reaction.

“Don’t come any closer!” exclaimed Liu Zixu.

Before Ye Tian could say more, a group of police officers entered from the banquet hall entrance.

“Not you again!” The leading officer, who had encountered Ye Tian before, darkened upon seeing him.

“We received a report of a disturbance here. Please cooperate with our investigation and come with us,” the middle-aged officer said, directing his team to handcuff Ye Tian.

Ye Tian didn’t resist, familiar with the process from a previous experience. He now realized that his sudden madness must be related to Jiang Che, as it started right after Jiang left.

“Too much! Jiang Che, I will kill you!”

After escorting Lin Xiyue home, Jiang Che also headed back. The next morning, he got up, freshened up, had breakfast, and then headed to Shen Qingqiu’s villa.

The previous night, while chatting on the phone, Shen had expressed missing him and hoped he would visit when he had time.

As a doting husband, Jiang Che naturally wouldn’t refuse such a request.

Half an hour later, Jiang Che parked his Bugatti in front of Shen Qingqiu’s villa. It was the weekend, and Shen Qingqiu was at home practicing with Ji Qingwan.

Shen Qingqiu and Ji Qingwan were practicing in the garden. It was one of her rare training times, so Shen Qingqiu was quite diligent.

“Brother Xiao Che, you’re here!” Shen Qingqiu, wiping sweat from her forehead, stopped her practice to greet him.

“You’ve reached the mid-stage of the Transformation realm, haven’t you?” Jiang Che asked with a smile, knowing that Shen Qingqiu’s cultivation must have improved after her last outbreak, thanks to the effects of the thousand-year-old Ice Mountain Snow Lotus.

“Yes, all thanks to you, Brother Xiao Che,” replied Shen Qingqiu, as they walked into a pavilion in the garden.

She served him a cup of cool tea. In front of others, she was an unattainable CEO, but with Jiang Che, she was just a gentle kitten.

Her gaze towards Jiang Che was full of unstoppable affection. She had truly missed him deeply.

“This is what I should do,” Jiang Che replied. “How’s Lingxi’s marriage situation?” Shen Qingqiu asked curiously, aware of Jiang Che’s recent trip to the imperial capital with Zhou Lingxi and his recent return.

“She’s successfully divorced,” Jiang Che replied, touching his nose.

“Did anything happen between you two?” Shen Qingqiu inquired doubtfully.

She trusted Jiang Che, but having Zhou Lingxi, a beautiful woman, as a constant companion, she couldn’t be sure of his intentions, considering he was a normal man.

Even if Jiang Che had indeed been involved with Zhou Lingxi, she wouldn’t have said anything, knowing it’s a common practice among wealthy families.

Her father, Shen Feng, had numerous lovers in his youth. After all, there is only a first time and countless times.

If she didn’t keep an eye on Jiang Che, she couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t stray in the future.

“I can accept one or two, but I definitely don’t want to compete with a bunch of seductresses for a man every day!” So, Shen Qingqiu thought it necessary to warn Jiang Che.

“No, Qingqiu, you have to believe me. You are the only one in my heart forever!” Jiang Che said with profound affection.

He thought it better not to lay all his cards on the table and let Shen Qingqiu discover the truth gradually.

“Really?” Shen Qingqiu looked at Jiang Che suspiciously.

“Of course it’s true. Why aren’t you saying anything, little junior sister?” Jiang Che curiously turned to Ji Qingwan, who had been sitting silently beside Shen Qingqiu.

Ji Qingwan glanced at Jiang Che upon hearing his words but remained silent, just closing her eyes and resting.

“She’s not a talkative person,” Shen Qingqiu explained with a wry smile.

Due to her past experiences, Ji Qingwan was very reserved and quiet. Even after living with Shen Qingqiu for over a year, she hardly spoke or smiled.

No matter the situation, Ji Qingwan always had an icy expression, showing no emotions. Her eyes only showed interest in cultivation, as if becoming stronger was her only concern.

Shen Qingqiu admired her junior sister’s determination; she herself lacked such persistence.

Among their sisters, Ji Qingwan had the highest cultivation, now at the peak of the innate realm, just a step away from the Transformation realm.

Jiang Che nodded thoughtfully, understanding Ji Qingwan’s situation. She had become reserved and quiet after her family was annihilated by enemies.

Her continuous effort in cultivation was driven by her desire for revenge, but she had found no clues over the years.

Ji Qingwan, likely a template of a daughter of luck or a female lead like Lin Xiyan and Zhou Lingxi, in other plots.

“You’ve been stuck at the peak of Innate for about a year now, right?” Jiang Che turned to Ji Qingwan with a smile.

Ji Qingwan opened her beautiful eyes with a hint of confusion, wondering why Jiang Che would make such a comment.

“This is a Great Restoration Pill. Eating it will grant you ten years of internal cultivation, helping you break through,” Jiang Che said, handing a pill he got from the system for 1000 villain points to Ji Qingwan.

It wasn’t expensive for him, and he considered giving it to Ji Qingwan as doing a favor, also hoping to gain some goodwill.

Ji Qingwan looked at the pill Jiang Che handed her, visibly moved but turned to Shen Qingqiu for her opinion. She could feel the powerful energy in the pill, certainly able to help her reach the Transformation realm.

“Take it. After all, it’s from your brother-in-law,” Shen Qingqiu said sourly, giving Jiang Che a resentful look. Why did he think of his sister-in-law first when he had good things, instead of her?

Ji Qingwan took the pill from the table, giving Jiang Che a grateful look, her expression slightly excited. She immediately left to find a quiet place to break through.

“Are you jealous?” Jiang Che noticed Shen Qingqiu’s resentful gaze and teased her.

“What do you think!”

“I’ll just give you another one,” Jiang Che sat next to Shen Qingqiu, playfully touching her nose and magically producing another Great Restoration Pill.

Looking at the pill in her hand, Shen Qingqiu’s face lit up again, examining it curiously. “Is this pill really as miraculous as you say?”

“Of course. You’ll know once you try it. But don’t use it now; you’ve just had a breakthrough. Better to stabilize your cultivation first.”

Shen Qingqiu nodded obediently, leaning her head into Jiang Che’s embrace. Without Ji Qingwan around, she became much bolder.

“Hehe, thank you, Brother Xiao Che~” She giggled, kissing Jiang Che’s cheek as a reward.

“Is that all? Not enough!”

“What else do you want?” Shen Qingqiu glared at Jiang Che playfully, knowing well how he always takes advantage of such situations.

“Hehe…” Jiang Che whispered something into her ear.

Shen Qingqiu’s cheeks turned red at his words. “You’re so shameless! You wanted to do it in the office last time, and now in the pavilion?”

“What, you’re not willing?” Jiang Che raised his eyebrows, patting her leg.

“I… I’m willing, okay~” Shen Qingqiu’s body tingled at his touch, her voice sultry. After saying this, she immediately got up to change clothes in her bedroom, knowing what Jiang Che liked.
