The next morning.

After getting out of bed, Jiang Che took out his phone and dialed Shen Qingqiu’s number. The call was quickly connected, and a slightly joyful voice came from the other end.

“Hello, Brother Che.”

“Are you at the company now?” Jiang Che asked with a smile.

“I’m at the company. What’s up?” Shen Qingqiu asked with some confusion.

“Nothing much, I’ll come over to see you tonight and give you a surprise.”

“A surprise? What kind of gift have you prepared for me?” Shen Qingqiu was stunned for a moment, then asked excitedly.

“A surprise isn’t a surprise if I tell you. You’ll know tonight.” Jiang Che said mysteriously, then after chatting with Shen Qingqiu for a bit, he hung up the phone.

He had considered asking Shen Qingqiu to come to his place so he could directly teach her the Star Absorbing Grand Technique and let her absorb Li Tian’s cultivation.

But if Shen Qingqiu came over and saw Ji Menglan…

That would be hard to explain, so Jiang Che decided to keep this matter secret for a while. He planned to tell Shen Qingqiu later, giving her some time to prepare mentally.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Che got up and went to the basement. He planned to check on Li Tian and see if he could extract some villain points from him before he died.

…

When Jiang Che arrived at the basement, Li Tian hadn’t woken up from his coma. He was tied to a chair, sleeping soundly.

Jiang Che had a guard bring a basin of cold water and poured it over Li Tian. Drenched in cold water, Li Tian quickly woke up, shivering from the chill. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Che, the person he hated to his core.

“Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?” Li Tian growled angrily, feeling a heavy weight on his chest.

He didn’t remember offending such a person. It was just because he mocked Jiang Che a few times at the Li family that he was now being targeted. Li Tian wanted to ask if it was really necessary to hold a grudge over a few taunts.

“I’m Jiang Che. My family is the one who forced your father, Li Chenzhuo, to his death.”

“Why do you think I’m targeting you?” Jiang Che pulled a chair and sat opposite Li Tian, casually making up a story, his face full of mocking smiles.

Li Chenzhou’s death had nothing to do with the Jiang family, but Jiang Che said this to provoke Li Tian.

“What…” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Li Tian was stunned, then his expression turned extremely angry.

He had imagined countless scenarios, but he never thought his father’s death would be connected to this young man in front of him. Now everything seemed to make sense, why this young man was targeting him.

Li Tian struggled to get up from the chair. Normally, breaking free from ropes was child’s play for him. But after several attempts, he still couldn’t break free, leaving him bewildered.

He realized his cultivation had been sealed at some point, knowing this must be Jiang Che’s doing.

“What exactly do you want?” Li Tian looked at Jiang Che with a dark expression.

“Didn’t I just tell you? My family forced your father to his death. What do you think I want?” Jiang Che looked at Li Tian with a bit of surprise. Honestly, he hadn’t expected Li Tian to remain so calm.

It seemed his words alone weren’t enough to convince Li Tian. This guy had some brains after all.

Since he couldn’t extract any luck from Li Tian, Jiang Che didn’t want to waste any more time. He slapped Li Tian, knocking him unconscious, and then instructed the guards to carry Li Tian towards the garage.

They threw Li Tian into the trunk of a Maybach, and Jiang Che drove away from Crouching Dragon Villa.

…

At eight in the evening, at Bihai Flower Villa.

Jiang Che drove the Maybach smoothly into Shen Qingqiu’s villa.

The guards at the entrance knew Jiang Che, recognizing him as their young master’s fiancé, so they didn’t stop him.

After parking the car, he had the guards take Li Tian out of the car, and Jiang Che headed towards the living room.

Entering the living room, Jiang Che looked around and quickly saw Shen Qingqiu. She was wearing professional attire, with a pair of sandals on her feet.

She was leaning on the sofa, crossing her legs, her small feet wrapped in black silk swinging back and forth.

Seeing Jiang Che arrive, Shen Qingqiu’s face lit up with joy, and she spoke tenderly.

…

“Brother Che, you’re here. Didn’t you say you had a surprise for me? Where’s the gift?” Seeing Jiang Che empty-handed, Shen Qingqiu said with some disappointment.

She thought he had really prepared a gift for her, but it turned out he was just talking. This made her feel a bit let down.

Jiang Che naturally saw through her thoughts. Smiling mysteriously, he handed Shen Qingqiu a copy of the Star Devouring Technique.

“Star Devouring Grand Technique, is this the gift you mentioned, Brother Che?” Looking at the martial arts manual in her hand, Shen Qingqiu asked curiously.

She had expected Jiang Che to bring some cosmetics or roses, not a martial arts technique. Martial arts techniques were extremely precious in both noble families and sects.

They weren’t like cabbages you could find on the street. Even a well-established martial arts family might not have many good techniques.

Martial arts techniques were inherently scarce; otherwise, Jiuzhou would have long been an era where everyone was as powerful as dragons.

Usually, these techniques weren’t shared outside. Shen Qingqiu was deeply moved that Jiang Che would give her one today, feeling valued by him.

Her heart was sweet, like it had been smeared with honey.
