Chapter 171



“System, open the mysterious treasure chest.”

“Ding, opening the mysterious treasure chest…”

“Congratulations, host, you have received a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes.”

Seeing the reward, Jiang Che’s face darkened, completely speechless. Opening treasure chests is like a lottery; whether you get something good depends entirely on luck.

As if he couldn’t afford to buy Zhonghua cigarettes with his vast wealth?

Grumbling about the stupid system, Jiang Che went straight to sleep.

…………

The next morning, early.

Jiang Che, still in a deep sleep, was woken up by the ringing of his phone. Groggily opening his eyes, Jiang Che saw that it was a call from his mother, Su Shanshan.

Yawning, Jiang Che answered the call, “Hello, Mom, what’s up?”

“Someone from Glory Entertainment called me asking about Song Tao. They said he went to see you yesterday and hasn’t returned since. They wanted me to ask you where he is now.”

“Glory Entertainment?” Jiang Che was slightly surprised, not expecting them to act so quickly.

He remembered Song Tao mentioning them yesterday but didn’t pay much attention. It seemed Glory Entertainment had quite a significant background.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have directly called his mother, and she wouldn’t have taken it seriously.

“Whose company is Glory Entertainment?” Jiang Che asked curiously, thinking that for his mother to personally call him, Glory Entertainment must have a powerful backer.

“It’s your grandfather’s company, which is why I’m asking you.” Hearing his mother’s words, Jiang Che was both amused and exasperated. It turned out to be his grandfather’s company all along.

“I’ve already killed Song Tao.” Jiang Che didn’t hide anything, directly confessing.

“You killed him?” Su Shanshan was momentarily stunned, not expecting this result. But she didn’t say much, as it wasn’t a big deal to her.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll inform them. That’s it. I have something to do, so I’ll hang up now.” With that, Su Shanshan hung up the phone.

The call had thoroughly awakened Jiang Che, who got up from bed. He planned to visit the Xiao family. Considering the time, that bastard Chen Feng should be back soon.

…………

In the northern region, the land was covered with heavy snow. Inside a tent in a military camp, Chen Feng sat on a chair, drinking hot tea.

Today was the day to leave for Linjiang City. He had already instructed his subordinates to prepare everything.

“Lord Tiansha, the five hundred Yinglong guards for this journey back to Linjiang City have all assembled. Shall we set off now?”

“Didn’t I say to keep everything simple? Why are there five hundred Shadow Dragon guards?” Chen Feng frowned slightly, displeased with the report. He had always been low-key and didn’t like to make a grand return.

“Lord Tiansha, it was the War God’s idea. The War God said you are his fellow countryman and have been too busy with the northern region’s affairs to visit. This time, you are going back on his behalf.” The subordinate respectfully explained.

“So, it’s the War God’s idea.” Chen Feng was a bit enlightened.

His good relationship with the War God was partly because they were from the same hometown.

“Pack up and set off for Linjiang City immediately!”

“Yes.” The subordinate responded and respectfully left.

Chen Feng took out an old marriage contract from his pocket, his face full of tenderness.

“Qingge, wait for me. This time, I promise you a grand wedding procession…”

…………

Half an hour later, Chen Feng stepped out of the tent, where five hundred Shadow Dragon guards were already assembled.

They stood solemnly, seemingly unafraid of the northern region’s biting cold wind.

“Let’s go.” Chen Feng glanced at them and boarded a nearby helicopter. The others followed in military vehicles to the nearest airport.

Since they were returning to Linjiang City, it wouldn’t be appropriate for all of them to travel by helicopter, which would be too ostentatious, and the War God wouldn’t approve.

…………

Xiao family villa, in the living room.

Upon learning that Jiang Che was coming, the Xiao family of three waited in the living room.

Xiao Qingshan’s face was full of tension. Although he had met Jiang Che a few times, they were not familiar.

He couldn’t figure out whether Jiang Che’s visit was to hold them accountable since Jiang Che hadn’t done anything to Xiao Qingge a few days ago.

“Dad, you don’t need to be so nervous. Young Master Jiang is very easygoing.” Seeing her father’s extreme nervousness, Xiao Qingge couldn’t help but smile wryly.

But she understood his feelings. She was just as nervous the first time she met Jiang Che. She was afraid that saying the wrong thing might cause Jiang Che to vent his anger on the entire Xiao family.

“Master, Young Master Jiang has arrived at the door.” A butler walked up to Xiao Qingshan and said respectfully.

“Huff…”

“Let’s go welcome Young Master Jiang together.” Xiao Qingshan stood up from the sofa, took a deep breath, glanced at Xiao Qingge and her mother, then walked out of the living room, followed closely by Xiao Qingge and her mother.

“Master Xiao, sorry for the sudden visit…” Jiang Che entered from the doorway, followed by Uncle Fu and Ah Long. He wore a warm smile, appearing very approachable.

“Young Master Jiang’s visit truly brings glory to our humble abode. It’s my honor to have you here, Young Master Jiang.”

“Master Xiao, you flatter me. I’ve long admired you.” After exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Qingshan invited Jiang Che into the living room.

Once everyone was seated, Jiang Che took some gifts from Uncle Fu and placed them on the table.

“These are Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao tea leaves, a gift for Master Xiao. I hope you don’t mind.” Jiang Che said with a smile. He understood the importance of reciprocating gifts.

It was also his first visit to the Xiao family, so it was only polite to bring some gifts. Although he was almost tired of drinking Dahongpao tea, it was still a great gift for Xiao Qingshan.

This tea was extremely valuable, usually reserved for high-ranking officials. Thanks to his father’s connections, the Jiang family had a large supply of it.

“Young Master Jiang, this is too precious.” Although tempted, Xiao Qingshan declined. This was something he could never have dreamed of.

“Please accept it, Master Xiao. It’s a token of my appreciation.” Jiang Che smiled as he spoke, once again handing the tea leaves to Xiao Qingshan.

“Well… alright.” Xiao Qingshan did not refuse any further. If he continued to refuse, it would be a slap in Jiang Che’s face.

Although Jiang Che spoke politely, Xiao Qingshan wouldn’t dare to offend him even if he had a hundred times more courage.
