I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

"Qingqing, I've come to take you home!"

The deafening roar of the engine seemed to tear apart the tranquility of Jiangjia Village.

A yellow Lamborghini drifted and came to a stop in front of the strawberry greenhouse.

The two Porsches following closely behind also came to a smooth stop.

Su Qing's mood, which was still immersed in the afterglow of Jiang Chen's "wall slam", was suddenly pulled back to reality by this sound.

She frowned subconsciously.

That sound...

Of course she knows her.

The car door opened.

A man wearing a flashy floral shirt and sunglasses bigger than his face stepped out of the Lamborghini.

As soon as he got out of the car, he covered his nose with his hand, as if he had smelled some unbearable odor.

"Cough cough cough! What the hell is this place?!"

He covered his nose while complaining loudly.

"It smells like cow dung. Su Qing is actually hiding in this remote, impoverished place?"

"This air is unbearable!"

The man was Zhao Tai, one of Su Qing's many suitors.

He finally found this place after a lot of trouble, using the location shared by Su Qing on her WeChat Moments.

He endured the bumpy ride and the overwhelming sense of backwardness before finally finding the culprit.

Zhao Tai took out a large bouquet of 999 bright red roses from the back seat of the car.

He knelt on one knee, striking an extremely exaggerated pose, and looked at Su Qing with deep affection.

He was completely unaware that Jiang Chen, standing behind Su Qing, was watching everything with his arms crossed, as if it were a show.

"Qingqing! Come back with me!"

Zhao Tai had a loud voice, and he thought that this would move Su Qing.

"This kind of remote, impoverished area is totally unsuitable for you! Look at you, you've lost so much weight in just a few days!"

"I've booked an entire island in the Maldives; we're going on vacation to relax and unwind!"

"Buy whatever you like, as long as you're happy!"

His eyes were filled with pity and... a sense of superiority.

At this moment, Su Qing's live stream was still running.

Tens of thousands of netizens are watching this sudden "wealthy family bride snatching" drama in real time.

The barrage of comments exploded instantly.

"Holy crap! The Empress has arrived!"

"A Lamborghini! Which clueless rich kid is this?!"

"999 roses! That's an incredible amount of money!"

"Host, say yes already! We want to rent an entire island in the Maldives! It smells amazing!"

Su Qing looked at the greasy man in front of her, and her expression gradually turned cold.

She resisted the urge to smash the phone.

"Zhao Tai".

Su Qing's voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable sense of detachment.

"I've said it many times, I don't like you."

Please stop disturbing my life.

She paused, glanced at Jiang Chen, then turned back to Zhao Tai, her tone becoming even more forceful.

"Also, the air here is great, much better than the cheap perfumes you wear."

"At least, you don't reek of money here!"

Zhao Tai's face instantly turned ashen.

He never expected that Su Qing would reject him so ruthlessly in front of so many people.

Especially in front of the live broadcast camera, this is an absolute disgrace!

He stood up angrily, his gaze sweeping across the crowd before finally settling on Jiang Chen beside him.

He saw Jiang Chen with his arms crossed, looking like he was enjoying the show, and instantly vented all his anger on Jiang Chen.

"You rejected me because of this country bumpkin?!"

Zhao Tai pointed at Jiang Chen with a disdainful expression, as if he had seen some kind of trash.

"Look at him! He's dressed like a migrant worker! Is his entire outfit worth two hundred yuan?!"

As Zhao Tai spoke, he raised his wrist, showing off his gleaming Rolex Daytona.

"This watch of mine! It's enough to buy his life!"

Jiang Chen originally just wanted to watch the excitement, but he never expected that the flames of war would spread to him.

He narrowed his eyes, lowered his arm, and slowly walked towards Zhao Tai.

His steps were slow, but each step felt like it was treading on Zhao Tai's heart.

When Zhao Tai saw Jiang Chen approaching, he was not afraid at all; instead, he became even more arrogant.

He thought Jiang Chen was angered by him and wanted to come up and argue.

He was preparing to continue his humiliating remarks, making Jiang Chen completely unable to hold his head up in front of Su Qing.

However, there was no anger on Jiang Chen's face.

His expression was as calm as a bottomless lake.

He walked up to Zhao Tai, who was only a step away.

Then, in front of everyone, he slowly took out his phone.

Fingers slid across the screen with practiced ease.

The screen displays a green app interface—that's Jiangjia Village's "Smart Security System".

The screen clearly displays real-time monitoring footage of every corner of the village, as well as data from various sensors.

Jiang Chen's tone was as calm as if he were stating an objective fact.

"Sir, your Lamborghini is parked in the fire lane."

"According to Article 4 of the village rules, obstructing fire lanes will result in a fine and the vehicle being towed away."

He paused, then turned his gaze to the bouquet of bright red roses in Zhao Tai's hand.

"In addition, there are obvious signs of spider mites on your roses."

"There are quite a few."

"I suggest you stay away from my strawberry greenhouse, otherwise you'll infect my amazing strawberries, and you won't be able to afford the consequences."

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he put his phone back in his pocket, as if he had only given a couple of insignificant reminders.

His voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear and resounding.

Zhao Tai was stunned.

He hadn't expected Jiang Chen's reaction to be so "unusual".

Instead of arguing or fighting, they started talking about village rules and pests.

Looking at Jiang Chen's calm demeanor, he felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.

"Can't afford to pay?!"

Zhao Tai laughed in anger, and pulled out a thick wad of cash from his Dior handbag.

That's at least tens of thousands of yuan.

He scattered the money on the ground, the red banknotes falling like snowflakes onto the soil.

"The thing I have in abundance is money!"

"Can't afford to pay? I'll bury you in money!"

He pointed at the money on the ground, his eyes filled with contempt.

"Pick it up! It's a tip for you! Pick it up, you country bumpkin!"

Viewers in the live stream were stunned.

"Holy crap! They're just throwing money around? I don't understand the world of the super-rich!"

"This is absolutely an epic battleground!"

"Hey streamer! Hurry and pick up the money! It's all real gold and silver!"

Su Qing looked at the banknotes scattered on the ground, then at Zhao Tai's arrogant face, and her disgust reached its peak.

She was about to reprimand him.

But Jiang Chen's eyes turned completely cold at that moment.

He can tolerate people saying he's a kept man.

He can tolerate others pointing fingers at him.

But he could not tolerate anyone running wild on his turf, especially in Jiangjia Village, which he had worked so hard to build.

Jiang Chen's gaze swept over the scattered banknotes on the ground, and then looked at Zhao Tai's arrogant demeanor.

He looked up and saw Wang Dagou busy outside the strawberry greenhouse.

The voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable authority.

"Big Gou!"
