Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses - Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Lord War God, Miss Xiao Qingge Is Being Coerced by the Jiang Family!

Jiuzhou Country, Northern Border.

The Northern Border is the northernmost region of Jiuzhou Country, where the cold wind blows year-round, and the average daily temperature is around zero degrees.

As warriors stationed in the Northern Border, they undoubtedly endure the harshest conditions. Moreover, this area is far from peaceful; they must not only resist the biting cold and extreme weather but also constantly guard against invasions from foreign tribes.

Chen Feng walked out of a tent, looking at the endless snowfall, his thoughts drifting to who knows where.

Six years…

From a lowly soldier, he had climbed step by step to become one of the four warlords under the War God of the Northern Border. The hardships and struggles he experienced were beyond what others could understand.

Now, he finally had the ability to return to Linjiang City and avenge his family. Chen Feng couldn’t help but think of the girl in his memories. She was so perfect, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

He still remembered her words when he fled Linjiang City, echoing in his ears.

“Make sure you survive…”

Chen Feng took out a marriage contract from his chest and held it in his hands, examining it repeatedly. This was the marriage contract between him and Xiao Qingge. Her words had been his spiritual support for all these years.

Chen Feng’s calloused hands caressed the marriage contract, his usual fierce demeanor replaced with gentleness.

“Qingge, don’t worry. This time, I won’t let you down…”

“Lord Tian Sha, according to the news from Linjiang City, Miss Xiao is being pressured by her family to marry into the Jiang family to relieve the Xiao family’s burden.”

(TL: Sha is a title that suggest a character associated with formidable, possibly destructive power, and a fearsome reputation.).

A subordinate approached Chen Feng, respectfully reporting the news he had received. Although it was said to be a marriage, it was really just making Xiao Qingge a nominal woman of Jiang Che.

But he dared not say this, knowing that Xiao Qingge was Lord Tian Sha’s reverse scale.

A dragon has a reverse scale; touching it means death!

Chen Feng, as one of the four warlords under the War God, held the title of Tian Sha.

“Well, Jiang family…” Chen Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, his expression turning dark, a terrifying killing intent rising to the sky. This was the aura he had cultivated from walking through countless battles.

The terrifying pressure of a late-stage Transformation master radiated outward, suffocating the reporting soldier.

He was furious. How dare the Jiang family target his woman!

“Is the War God in the Northern Border?” Suppressing his terrifying aura, Chen Feng calmed his inner rage and asked in a steady tone.

“Lord Tian Sha, the War God is currently not in the Northern Border. He went to the capital to discuss matters with the people from the Western Hall.”

“Not in the Northern Border, huh…” Chen Feng felt a bit disappointed. He had wanted to say goodbye to the War God personally. Their relationship was more like old friends than just superior and subordinate.

“Give the order, prepare for departure. In three days, we will head to Linjiang City!” With that, Chen Feng turned and returned to his tent.

“Yes, sir!” The soldier responded respectfully and retreated.

…

In the study of Crouching Dragon Villa.

Jiang Che was engrossed in his book when his phone on the side suddenly started vibrating incessantly.

Jiang Che picked up the phone and saw that it was his mother calling. Without much thought, he answered it.

“Hello, Mom, what’s up?”

“I’ve found a beauty for you! She has agreed to meet you.”

“Do you have time today?” Su Shanshan’s excited tone came through the phone, indicating she was in a good mood.

“I have time. Where should I meet her?” Jiang Che replied, already guessing that his mother was referring to Xiao Qingge from the Xiao family.

He wasn’t surprised that Xiao Qingge had compromised so quickly. With the Jiang family pressuring her, Xiao Qingge wasn’t the type to be obstinate.

Moreover, having accepted the plot, Jiang Che knew that this woman had always longed for love. But because of the marriage contract, she hadn’t met anyone who moved her heart all these years.

“Go to the private dining house on Xinghan Road, private room 19. I have arranged for her to wait for you there. Make sure you seize this opportunity. Xiao Qingge is a good girl.”

Su Shanshan urged over the phone. She had a favorable impression of Xiao Qingge and wanted her to become her daughter-in-law.

“Mom, aren’t you worried that Qingqiu will get jealous?” Jiang Che asked with a strange expression. While he didn’t mind such arrangements, if his mother kept finding women for him, his body wouldn’t be able to handle it…

“Qingqiu is an understanding woman. She won’t get jealous over such trivial matters. Besides, you don’t have a woman outside. Qingqiu is very busy every day. Isn’t it good to have someone to accompany you?”

“Could it be that you have another woman outside?” Su Shanshan’s tone became suspicious.

She didn’t believe her son was a good person. Despite his gentle and amiable facade, she knew it was all a pretense.

“Cough, cough… I don’t…” Jiang Che coughed twice, feeling a bit guilty as he touched his nose.

“Hmph, I don’t care what you do, but don’t let Qingqiu down. She is a good girl.” She said coldly.

She didn’t care how Jiang Che behaved, but Shen Qingqiu had to be the future daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. She had a high opinion of Shen Qingqiu.

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

“That’s good. Remember to go. I have things to do, so I’ll hang up now.” With that, Su Shanshan hurriedly hung up to attend to her affairs.

Jiang Che left the study and headed to the garage. He casually chose a Bugatti and drove to the private dining house on Xinghan Road.

…

In private room 19 of the private dining house on Xinghan Road.

Xiao Qingge sat on a chair, looking nervous. Her fair, jade-like hands were clasped together, and her expression was filled with unease as she occasionally glanced at the door.

She wore a floral long dress, had her hair pinned up, and wore light makeup. Her red lips, white teeth, and creamy skin, combined with her slender eyebrows and charming eyes, made her very attractive.

The people from the Jiang family had instructed her to wait for Jiang Che here. She had arrived about half an hour early. She felt both anticipation and nervousness about meeting Jiang Che, considering this a kind of date.

She had seen Jiang Che and heard about his character, but she needed to verify for herself. If he was like other second-generation rich kids, lustful and unscrupulous, she wouldn’t agree to anything.
