"What? Jing Yi actually got a marriage certificate with that bastard? What’s so good about that bastard Jiang Chen? Has Jing Yi gone blind?"
Shen Zhui’s angry curse ca through the receiver, clearly furious as well.
Lin Wan frowned and roared, "Shen Zhui, what are you saying? If you want to curse at Jiang Chen, then curse at Jiang Chen, but why curse Jing Yi? Don’t you know Jing Yi’s character? She’s kind-hearted and willing to trust people; she must have been tricked by that scumbag Jiang Chen.
I’m telling you, you only have one chance tomorrow. Right now Uncle Ye, Aunt Zhou, and Sister Yan Ni are all pissed about this, and they all know Jiang Chen is a bastard. If you go tomorrow, you’ll definitely get their help, and once Jing Yi gives in, we can get her to divorce Jiang Chen and escape this pit of fire.
Give a straight answer, do you go or not?"
Lin Wan swore excitedly.
"I’ll go! I’ll definitely go!
I, a proud second-generation rich kid, actually had a woman stolen by a weasel who lives off a woman, I, Shen Zhui, will not stand for this loss.
Lin Wan, you wait, I’m going to buy a diamond ring overnight, and first thing tomorrow morning, I’ll co to pick you up, and we’ll go to the Ye Family together!"
Hysterical roars ca from Shen Zhui through the receiver.
"Listen to , no matter what you do tomorrow, as long as it doesn’t hurt Jing Yi, you must win her back for . If you can’t do it, then you’re no friend of mine!"
Lin Wan was determined, absolutely refusing to let Ye Jingyi end up with Jiang Chen, whom she deed a scumbag, a freeloader. No more hesitation about Shen Zhui’s character; in her opinion, even if Shen Zhui liked to play around and hang out at nightclubs, he was still a thousand, no, ten thousand tis better than Jiang Chen.
Tomorrow, she would support Shen Zhui with all her efforts, and she must pull Ye Jingyi out of the pit of fire that was Jiang Chen!
Jiang Chen, you wait for !
...
While Jiang Chen was the subject of many people’s curses and envy, he was in a hotel room, continuing to study the strange Blood Rhino Horn he had taken from Zhang Long.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he studied it, he was still without results.
Undeterred, he lay in bed continuing his research, and eventually, fell asleep clutching the Blood Rhino Horn.
In his sleep, he once again returned to that dreamlike mory.
And this ti, Jiang Chen dreamt of the scene where he acquired those ancient dical arts and martial techniques, all from an ancient book.
At the sa ti as acquiring the dical arts and martial techniques, there were also so mysterious cultivation techniques.
It was at this mont in the dream.
Suddenly, a flash of brilliance swept through the dream. And then, a profound chant began to echo in Jiang Chen’s mind.
’Energy and blood surge, the power so fierce, control the blood with force, manipulate energy with blood...’
As the chant sounded, the blood-red color of the Blood Rhino Horn that Jiang Chen was tightly holding in reality started to slowly fade, gradually rging into Jiang Chen’s body.
...
"Ding-a-ling—"
The next morning, a burst of the telephone ringing woke Jiang Chen from his deep sleep.
Groping for his phone in a daze, Jiang Chen spoke sleepily, "Hello?"
"Mr. Jiang, I’m sorry to disturb you, have you not gotten up yet?" a gentle voice ca through, laced with a hint of apology.
Jiang Chen rubbed his eyes and recognized the voice, "It’s fine, is it Miss Gong Lin? What’s wrong, is there sothing you need?"
Gong Lin spoke politely, "Could I trouble Mr. Jiang to co out for a bit? I have sothing to discuss with you."
Jiang Chen frowned, "It’s not about yesterday’s matter, is it? If it is, just forget it, I won’t agree."
Gong Lin: "It’s not that, please be assured."
Jiang Chen glanced at the ti, 8:50 AM, and nodded, "Alright, where?"
Afterward, Gong Lin gave the address and hung up the call.
Just as Jiang Chen was about to get up, he seed to sense sothing, looked down at his hand, and was imdiately stunned.
Where’s the Blood Rhino Horn?
All he saw by his hand was a pile of powder, no sign of the Blood Rhino Horn.
Blinking, the mysteriously profound words from his dream the night before echoed again in Jiang Chen’s mind.
"This... seems to be that Cultivation Technique."
Murmuring to himself, Jiang Chen unconsciously followed the thod described in the technique and circulated it.
"Buzz—"
Jiang Chen’s body shook violently as a unique power surged through his limbs and bones, almost bursting forth.
Startled, Jiang Chen hurriedly stopped the circulation, clenched his fists, and a look of delighted surprise appeared on his face, "What a strong power, I didn’t expect such a peculiar Cultivation Technique to exist in this world."
But in the mories of the dream’s future, it seed he hadn’t managed to harness this power, otherwise, how could he have failed in his revenge and died?
Could it be related to the Blood Rhino Horn?
Staring at the pile of powder by his side, Jiang Chen pondered for a long ti to no avail and decided not to dwell on it. He got up, washed up, and hurried to the eting place he had arranged with Gong Lin.
...
"Mr. Jiang."
When Jiang Chen arrived at the location, Gong Lin was already waiting there.
Jiang Chen looked at Gong Lin with confusion, "Miss Gong, what’s the matter?"
Gong Lin smiled slightly, "First, please stop calling Miss Gong. You can call Gong Lin or Sister Gong."
Jiang Chen smiled, "Alright, then Gong Lin, please also don’t call Mr. Jiang anymore."
"Okay, then I’ll call you Jiang Chen." Gong Lin smiled and nodded, and then went straight to the point, "Actually... I heard you went to the registration office to get married yesterday. Since it was quite rush, I’ve prepared a small gift for you, and I hope you’ll accept it."
While speaking, Gong Lin took out an exquisitely wrapped small box from her bag.
Jiang Chen hesitated, "This..."
Gong Lin interjected, "Jiang Chen, you wouldn’t even accept this small gift, would you? I haven’t even started talking about my mother’s life-saving grace with you."
Jiang Chen smiled; he thought that since he was on his way to the Ye Family and Ye Jingyi didn’t want to spend Zhang Long’s money, and he couldn’t afford a very expensive gift, Gong Lin’s gift probably wouldn’t be too shabby and this could be killing two birds with one stone.
"Alright, then thank you!"
He laughed softly in thanks and accepted Gong Lin’s gift.
Seeing Jiang Chen accept the gift, Gong Lin’s smile sweetened a bit, "Then I won’t hold you up any longer, but rember, if you change your mind, you can call at any ti. The chairmanship and CEO position at Sihai Investnt are always reserved for Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Chen hastily waved his hands, "No need for that, really no need!"
Gong Lin smiled and didn’t persist. The fact that her gift was accepted was progress, and it brought her closer to Jiang Chen; she was already very content.
As he watched Gong Lin leave, Jiang Chen looked at the box in his hand and pondered to himself; just a gift for Jing Yi wouldn’t do when visiting her parents at the Ye Family. What else should he buy?
"Ding-ling-ling—" Just as Jiang Chen was worrying, his phone rang again.
"Hello, Manager Liu?"
"Mr. Jiang, the loan for Miss Ye has been settled, President Zhu has agreed, and the contract has already been drafted. When can you co over?"
"The contract is ready? That’s great, just what I need."
Jiang Chen was pleased, as this was the perfect gift for Ye Jingyi’s parents.
After thinking for a bit, Jiang Chen tentatively asked, "Manager Liu, could I take the contract out to sign and then send it back for stamping?"
"Of course, you can." Liu Zejiang agreed readily.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen excitedly rushed to Wanguo Bank. Once he had the contract, he hurried to the Ye Family without delay. This gift was sure to satisfy everyone in the Ye Family.
