Chapter 38 - Shen Qingqiu and Ye Chen’s Breakup

“Senior sister, why did you fire me?” Ye Chen asked, seemingly unable to grasp Shen Qingqiu’s decision, his expression full of sorrow.

“Heh,” Shen Qingqiu looked at Ye Chen disdainfully. “Don’t you know what you have done?”

“But I was framed…” Ye Chen replied, feeling wronged, failing to understand why even his senior sister wouldn’t believe him.

“No need to explain. I don’t want to listen,” Shen Qingqiu said impatiently. “Leave now. You have no relation with Shen Corporation anymore.”

“Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully framing Ye Chen, leading to his relationship breakdown with Shen Qingqiu, altering the plot. Reward: 2000 villain points.”

“Ding, Ye Chen’s mentality has exploded, spirit broken, luck -1000. Reward: 2000 villain points.”

Jiang Che listened to the system’s delightful notification, a subtle smile playing on his lips. His meticulous plan had worked perfectly, severing the relationship between Shen Qingqiu and Ye Chen.

“But senior sister…” Ye Chen tried to say more, but was interrupted by Shen Qingqiu.

“Just go, or I’ll start hitting,” Shen Qingqiu warned. Ye Chen didn’t say anything further, knowing her anger, and left with a dejected look.

“Jiang Che, I won’t let you get away with this!” he thought bitterly, certain now that Jiang Che was behind everything. He couldn’t confront Jiang Che with Shen Qingqiu present and had to find another opportunity.

…

“After Ye Chen left, Shen Qingqiu reverted back to a gentler tone, surprising Jiang Che with the change. They then left in a Maybach, heading to a nearby restaurant.

Ye Chen, standing by the roadside, watched the departing car with clenched fists and a dark expression. He believed that it should have been him by Shen Qingqiu’s side, not Jiang Che.

“Jiang Che, just you wait!” Ye Chen inhaled deeply, trying to calm his rage. He was determined to slowly build his network and take Shen Qingqiu back from Jiang Che.

His immediate focus was to gather connections and funds, starting with an upcoming auction at the Crown Holiday Hotel in Linjiang City, which he saw as his first step to rise.

…

After having dinner with Shen Qingqiu, Jiang Che drove to Linjiang City First People’s Hospital. Inside a special care ward of the hospital, Jiang Che inquired about Ah Long, who was seated on the bedside. Ah Long’s bandages had been removed, and he looked largely recovered.

“Feeling better?” asked Jiang Che, noting Ah Long’s significant improvement, a benefit of his martial artist identity, which facilitated faster healing than an ordinary person would experience.

“Much better. The doctor said I can be discharged this afternoon,” replied Ah Long, touching his head with a simple, honest smile.

Ah Long was surprised by Jiang Che’s sudden visit, as it was unusual for a master to visit their bodyguard in the hospital so frequently.

“I’ll have someone handle your discharge procedures. You can go home this afternoon. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now,” said Jiang Che.

“Okay, see you off, Young Master,” responded Ah Long with a mix of gratitude and embarrassment.

…

“System, I want to upgrade my cultivation,” Jiang Che said deeply, back at his residence in Wolong Villa.

He needed to enhance his cultivation urgently to confront Ye Chen, as there was a vast gap between the Dark Energy stage and the Innate Energy stage. Jiang Che was aware that only with significant personal strength could he face any adversary fearlessly.

“Ding, deducting 4000 villain points, upgrading ‘Limitless Pure Yang,’” the system announced. Soon after, Jiang Che’s cultivation level reached the late phase and then the peak of Dark Energy.

About half an hour later, Jiang Che slowly opened his eyes, now at the peak of Dark Energy. He curiously asked the system how many villain points were needed for each upgrade from the peak of Dark Energy to the peak of Innate Energy.

The system informed him that it required 5000 points for each upgrade.

“Five thousand per upgrade, quite a challenging task ahead,” Jiang Che muttered with a wry smile.

To dominate Ye Chen, who was at the early stage of Innate Energy, he needed to reach at least the late stage of Innate Energy himself. After all, a protagonist-like breakthrough during a battle, a typical main character’s privilege, was not something Jiang Che could rule out for Ye Chen.
