Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses - Chapter 204

Chapter 204: The Girl Who Doesn’t Speak

“Ding, the host’s design has severed Huang Xiaolong’s opportunity, changing the plot. Reward: 2000 Villain Points.”

“Ding, Huang Xiaolong’s luck -2000, reward: 4000 Villain Points.”

Sitting on the sofa chatting with Shen Qingqiu, Jiang Che suddenly heard the system prompt in his ear.

Hearing the system prompt, Jiang Che was stunned for a moment. He glanced in Huang Xiaolong’s direction, but there was no sign of Wei Changming and others, only Huang Xiaolong standing there alone.

He didn’t expect Liu Lei to be somewhat useful. Jiang Che did not have high hopes for this matter, but Liu Lei directly gave him a surprise.

Since Liu Lei had driven everyone away, this banquet was destined to be unrelated to Huang Xiaolong.

Shortly, Old Master Bai Chunfeng descended the stairs. He walked to the center of the living room, looked around at the guests, and cupped his hands, his face full of smiles, “Welcome everyone to my birthday celebration.”

“Old Bai, you’re too kind. It’s our honor to attend your birthday.”

“Old Bai, although you are nearly seventy, your elegance remains.”

As soon as Bai Chunfeng finished speaking, a chorus of voices rose, each praising him.

Seeing the guests’ reactions, Bai Chunfeng nodded in satisfaction, his mood very pleasant. It was worth his lifelong effort in Linjiang City. This was what he deserved.

“Everyone, please be seated and relaxed.” As Bai Chunfeng’s voice fell, a group of chefs carrying dishes entered from outside the living room and began serving each table.

……

Jiang Che’s table had only Jiang Che, Shen Qingqiu, and Li Chengfeng.

Jiang Che, feeling somewhat bored, drank sullenly with Li Chengfeng. This was why he didn’t like attending such birthday banquets.

It was too dull. If not for Huang Xiaolong coming today, he wouldn’t have been interested in coming to such a place to mingle with a bunch of people. Wouldn’t it be better to spend time at home playing house with Ah Qing?

By the time the dinner ended, it was almost midnight. During the dinner, many guests came to toast Jiang Che. Naturally, Jiang Che didn’t refuse anyone.

He had an excellent alcohol tolerance and wasn’t afraid of getting drunk. Even if he did get drunk, he could dissolve the alcohol with his inner strength.

“Stop drinking, let’s go.” Seeing Jiang Che, who was flushed and still trying to toast others, Shen Qingqiu frowned, snatched the wine glass from his hand.

She couldn’t understand Jiang Che’s behavior, drinking so much alcohol, wouldn’t he suffer the next day?

After bidding farewell to Li Chengfeng, she directly helped Jiang Che up from the chair and walked out of the villa.

……

After a great effort, she finally got Jiang Che into the passenger seat of her sports car. Shen Qingqiu looked at him somewhat irritably.

She reached out her white jade hand and pinched Jiang Che’s face twice, but without much force, more like a kitten scratching an itch.

Jiang Che pushed Shen Qingqiu’s hand away from his face, mumbling something unclear, “Come on, keep drinking.”

Shen Qingqiu glanced at Jiang Che helplessly, fastened his seatbelt, got into the driver’s seat, and left the Bai family’s estate.

Not long after she left, Huang Xiaolong appeared at the entrance of the Bai family’s villa. Seeing the Maserati driving away, Huang Xiaolong’s face was gloomy, his fists clenched tightly.

During the birthday banquet, he noticed that Liu Lei kept toasting Jiang Che, trying to curry favor. Now he understood why Liu Lei falsely accused him. He must have been instructed by Jiang Che! After figuring this out, Huang Xiaolong was so angry that he ground his teeth.

He had finally learned that the Bai family was hosting a birthday banquet tonight and wanted to use the opportunity to show off his medical skills and earn his first pot of gold. Now, thanks to Jiang Che’s interference, it was all ruined!

He couldn’t understand why Jiang Che kept targeting him. Although he had spoken disrespectfully to Jiang Che last time, Jiang Che had already slapped him numerous times in public. Wasn’t that enough?

“You ruined my plans, I will never let you go!”

……

“Should I take you home or to my place to rest?” At a certain traffic light, waiting for the red light, Shen Qingqiu turned to look at Jiang Che in the passenger seat and asked.

“Not home, to your place!” Hearing Shen Qingqiu’s words, Jiang Che shuddered, his drunkenness clearing up halfway instantly, and he blurted out without thinking.

If Shen Qingqiu went to his place and found Ji Menglan at his villa, it would be chaos!

“Okay, then let’s go to my place.” Although she was a bit puzzled by Jiang Che’s strong reaction, Shen Qingqiu didn’t think much of it. She stepped on the gas pedal and headed straight to her Bihai Flower Villa.

Jiang Che thought to himself, ‘That was close! Almost got caught!’

Fortunately, he sobered up in time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to explain tonight. After all, he had some relationship with all of Shen Qingqiu’s junior sisters except Ji Qingwan…

……

The car drove smoothly on the road, and after more than half an hour, they arrived outside Shen Qingqiu’s villa.

After honking twice, the security guard at the gate saw that it was their young lady and let them in. After parking the Maserati, Shen Qingqiu helped the swaying Jiang Che into the villa’s living room.

In the living room, Ji Qingwan was leisurely watching TV on the sofa. Seeing Shen Qingqiu helping Jiang Che in from outside, a look of curiosity flashed in her eyes.

She knew Jiang Che, her senior sister’s fiancé. After all, it was thanks to the Great Restoration Pill he provided that she had successfully broken through to the Transformation realm.

However, Shen Qingqiu had never brought him home for the night before, so she was a bit curious.

“Why are you still up? Waiting for me?” Seeing Ji Qingwan on the sofa, Shen Qingqiu said somewhat helplessly.

Her junior sister had a peculiar habit of checking if she was home before going to bed every night, as if to confirm that she wouldn’t secretly leave her behind.

Ji Qingwan obediently nodded without saying a word, her expression unchanged.

“Go to bed, I’m going to sleep too.” Shen Qingqiu spoke softly, like coaxing a child.

She knew her junior sister’s personality well. After all these years, she had never heard her speak a single word.

If she hadn’t confirmed that Ji Qingwan’s vocal cords were undamaged, she would have thought her junior sister was mute.

Ji Qingwan nodded again, glanced at Shen Qingqiu, and then turned to go upstairs. Since Shen Qingqiu was back, she could go to bed with peace of mind.
