陌陌上卖的400妹子是真的吗

Chapter 73

“Sister, after you drink this medicinal soup, your hidden ailment will be completely cured,” Zhou Lingxi said, spoon-feeding Shen Qingqiu the soup.

After drinking the soup made from the Thousand-Year Ice Mountain Snow Lotus, Shen Qingqiu’s complexion visibly improved, and she spoke with less weakness. Truly, the thousand-year variety was extraordinary!

“Sister, how do you feel?” Zhou Lingxi asked expectantly after Shen Qingqiu finished the soup.

“I feel the chill in my body receding bit by bit, and I sense an imminent breakthrough,” Shen Qingqiu said excitedly.

It was the first time since descending the mountain over a year ago that she felt a chance for a breakthrough. She quickly used her cultivation to suppress the urge, as it wasn’t the right time for a breakthrough.

“Qingqiu, are you really alright?” Lin Wanxi approached her daughter, inspecting her with a loving gaze.

“Mom, I’m really fine. See, I’m doing well,” Shen Qingqiu smiled.

“Ah, that’s good. I was so worried,” Lin Wanxi sighed in relief. Zhou Lingxi looked on with an odd expression.

If she remembered correctly, she had never seen Shen Qingqiu smile. No matter who it was or what happened, Shen Qingqiu was always icy cold. It seemed she had changed quite a bit in a month.

“Enough talk for now, I’ll go cook. Xiao Che, why don’t you stay for dinner tonight?” Lin Wanxi said cheerfully before heading downstairs, evidently in a good mood.

“Jiang Che, right? How did you win over my ice-cold sister?” Zhou Lingxi asked boldly, not caring that Shen Qingqiu was right beside her.

Jiang Che’s lips twitched, not expecting such bold words from Zhou Lingxi. Wasn’t she afraid of Shen Qingqiu enforcing their sect’s rules and punishing her?

Sure enough, Shen Qingqiu’s initially cheerful face darkened, her eyes filling with coldness. “What did you just say?”

“Nothing, I said you’re the most beautiful in the world!” Zhou Lingxi cheekily replied, walking over to the bed and grabbing Shen Qingqiu’s arm, shaking it playfully.

“Sister, haven’t you missed me in a month?” Zhou Lingxi cooed, kissing Shen Qingqiu on the cheek.

Jiang Che watched them with an odd expression. Was this a blossoming of a lily flower?

“What are you doing!” Shen Qingqiu’s face flushed red, pushing Zhou Lingxi away and addressing Jiang Che awkwardly. “Brother Xiao Che, don’t get the wrong idea, I’m not into that sort of thing… She’s just not right in the head, ignore her.”

“Sister, that’s slander!” Zhou Lingxi protested. She was just expressing her longing for Shen Qingqiu; that’s all!

“It’s fine, I don’t mind,” Jiang Che reassured with a smile, not wanting to interfere too much even in their intimate actions.

“Handsome guy, would you mind having one more girlfriend?” Zhou Lingxi flirted, approaching Jiang Che.

“What do you mean?” he asked.

“It’s literal. Since you’re my elder sister’s boyfriend, and I’m so close to her, that naturally makes you my boyfriend too,” Zhou Lingxi stated earnestly.

Jiang Che’s lips twitched at her boldness. Flirting in front of Shen Qingqiu?

“Stop talking nonsense!” Shen Qingqiu said angrily, grabbing Zhou Lingxi’s ear.

“Ow… Sister, let go, I won’t do it again!”

…

After dining at Shen Qingqiu’s villa, Jiang Che returned home with Ah Long. In his bedroom, lighting a cigarette and gazing out the window, he inquired in his mind, “System, how many villain points do I have left?”

“Host currently has 6000 villain points remaining.”

“Six thousand villain points?” Jiang Che narrowed his eyes. He could use these points to enhance his cultivation or for six lottery draws. Playing it safe would mean boosting his cultivation, but the lottery might yield something valuable.

“System, give me six basic lottery draws.”

After much contemplation, Jiang Che decided on the lottery, admitting his penchant for gambling. “Ding, the lottery is in progress. Congratulations, Host has obtained 100 Human Infant Burp Bags.”

“Ding, thank you for your patronage.”

“Ding, congratulations, Host has obtained 3 Lucky Charms.”

“Ding, congratulations, Host has obtained a kitchen knife.”

“Ding, congratulations, Host has obtained 5 Marrow Cleansing Pills.”

Looking at the array of rewards from the system, Jiang Che was speechless. Apart from the Lucky Charms and Marrow Cleansing Pills, there was nothing of value.

“What are these Lucky Charms?” Jiang Che asked curiously about the charms. He knew what Marrow Cleansing Pills were, but he had never encountered Lucky Charms before.

“Lucky Charms, as the name suggests, will bring the host exceptional luck for the next three days. Finding money on the street, winning the lottery, and so forth.”

“Truly inconsequential…” Jiang Che muttered, unimpressed as he didn’t lack money.

Jiang Che extinguished his cigarette and turned to look at Ji Menglan, who was tied to a chair, appearing sleepy yet intermittently shaking her head to stay awake.

“Sleep if you want, I won’t do anything to you.”

“Hmph, do you think I’d believe your lies?” Ji Menglan scoffed disdainfully at Jiang Che. She didn’t trust him at all and found him utterly lacking in gentleness.

“It seems your condition hasn’t improved,” Jiang Che said, somewhat helplessly shaking his head. He picked up a medical instrument from the bedside, replaced its battery, and approached her.

“You… stay away!” Ji Menglan watched Jiang Che with fear, not wanting to experience the electrifying sensation again.

“Ah… Jiang Che! I will kill you!”

In the Yijia Hotel at ten o’clock that night, Ye Chen, after wiping out the Chen and Wang families, returned here. His face showed confusion.

Although he knew the Jiang family was behind the extermination of his family, he dared not trouble Jiang Che. With the Jiang family’s position in the Linjiang Four Great Families, they must have numerous trump cards.

With his mere initial stage of Innate cultivation, confronting them would be suicidal. He was aware of his limits.

What should he do now? Shen Qingqiu and Lin Xiyan were completely offended, and Gu Yunqi probably wouldn’t help him. As for Zhou Lingxi and Ji Qingwan, the former always quarreled with him, and the latter stayed with Shen Qingqiu, so neither would likely assist. He couldn’t even contact Ji Menglan…

Perhaps only Jiang Yun’er could help him. But their relationship was just average, and she probably wouldn’t assist him. Realizing this, Ye Chen felt on the verge of collapse, as it seemed all his sisters were drifting away from him.

“I have to try anyway,” Ye Chen sighed deeply, pulling out his phone to call Jiang Yun’er, a number he got from Lin Xiyan last time. His sisters, except Ji Qingwan and Ji Menglan, all came from extraordinary backgrounds.

In Jiang Yun’er’s bedroom at the Jiang residence, she was engrossed in an anime, hugging a character pillow, dressed in a cute Lolita outfit, her feet wrapped in white stockings swinging back and forth.

“Wow, the brother in this is so handsome… When will I meet my prince charming?” she mused wistfully, having never encountered her prince in her nineteen years and doubting she ever would.

Suddenly, a ringtone interrupted her thoughts. Seeing an unknown number, she dismissed the call, annoyed at being disturbed during her anime.

Seeing his call abruptly disconnected, Ye Chen was perplexed but dialed again. This time Jiang Yun’er answered, albeit with a cold tone. “Hello? I’m not buying houses or cars, thank you.”

“Senior sister, it’s not about selling houses, it’s me, Ye Chen.”

“Ye Chen? What do you want?” Jiang Yun’er asked, puzzled. She wasn’t close to this junior brother and had heard about Lin Xiyan’s incident with him, so she had no good feelings toward Ye Chen.
