13: Chapter 13 The dog food wasn't tasty, but it was filling.

Xiao Yuchen urgently wanted to know his current strength, so that when he encountered Martial Artists in the future, especially enemies, he could estimate the gap in strength between them in advance and decide his next steps. This was crucial.

"If you wish, I naturally won't refuse. However, there are too many eyes here; it's not suitable for a sparring match. How about this: my address is on my business card. You are welcome to come to the Zhou Family to find me, young friend Xiao. I will certainly accommodate you then."

The reason Zhou Tiancheng arranged it this way was naturally because he hoped to have more contact with Xiao Yuchen; as for the sparring, it was just a convenient afterthought.

"Alright, I will pay a visit when I have time."

After chatting with Zhou Tiancheng for a while longer, Xiao Yuchen bid farewell and left. When he returned home, his younger sister, Xiao Yuxin, had not yet woken up.

High school life was exhausting, and there were rarely opportunities to sleep in, so Xiao Yuchen didn't wake his sister up and went to make breakfast instead.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yuchen had finished making breakfast, and at this moment, Xiao Yuxin came out of her room.

"Xiao Yuxin, go wash up and come over to eat."

"Okay, coming right away. By the way, brother, what are your plans for today? Are you going to see your sister-in-law?"

Hearing his sister's words, the corners of Xiao Yuchen's mouth twitched. This girl really changed how she addressed her quickly.

"I don't know yet. It's too early; I haven't contacted her yet. I'll call and ask in a while."

Ding-dong!

Just as Xiao Yuchen finished speaking, the doorbell rang. Xiao Yuchen went to open the door, puzzled, only to find that it was Li Yiran.

"Yiran, you're here. Xiao Yuxin was just asking me what plans I had for today and whether I should go find you. And then you showed up."

"Can't help it. Since someone won't come find me, I have to come myself," Yiran pretended to complain.

"Uh..."

Xiao Yuchen awkwardly scratched his head and explained with some embarrassment, "It's mainly because I don't dare to go to your house to find you, otherwise... otherwise..."

"Alright, I'm just joking. Huh? It smells so good. Did you make breakfast?"

As the saying goes, the first time is awkward, the second time is familiar. Yiran didn't stand on ceremony either; she sat directly at the dining table, picked up her chopsticks, and started eating.

"Mm, this fried egg is not bad. I want another one."

"Oh, okay, there's plenty more. I'll get you one."

After getting another fried egg for Yiran, Xiao Yuchen smiled and said, "Compared to you, I seem more like the guest. You really don't stand on ceremony at all."

"Do I need to stand on ceremony with my boyfriend?" Yiran retorted.

"Indeed, there's no need. I actually feel more relaxed this way. Are you free today? Where should we go to have fun?" Xiao Yuchen took the initiative to ask.

"I have a bit of business. My father handed a cosmetics company over to me to manage, as a way to practice in advance. Why don't you accompany me to take a look?"

"Sure. Xiao Yuxin, do you want to come with us?" Xiao Yuchen looked at his younger sister.

"No, dog food doesn't taste good, and I have to go back to school this afternoon," Xiao Yuxin pouted.

"Although dog food doesn't taste good, it is filling," Xiao Yuchen said with a dark, mischievous smile. "Are you sure you don't need me to take you to school?"

Seeing her brother's cheeky look, Xiao Yuxin rolled her eyes at him. "I'd better just take the bus. You just go and have a good time with your girlfriend."

Hearing Xiao Yuxin actually call her sister-in-law, Yiran's face turned red instantly.

"Alright then, but I will arrange your transfer as soon as possible," Xiao Yuchen said casually.

"Huh? Is Xiao Yuxin transferring schools?" Yiran asked curiously.

"Yeah, I want to transfer Xiao Yuxin to our Jiangcheng No. 1 High School so I can look after her more. I'm not at ease leaving her alone at the No. 2 High School." Xiao Yuchen recounted the incident with Jiang Mingcong again.

"To think something like that happened. Then Xiao Yuxin really can't stay at the No. 2 High School. It's better to transfer her to the No. 1 High School; that way we can be together often in the future. Leave this matter to me; I just need to tell my father."

As she spoke, Yiran called her father directly and explained Xiao Yuxin's situation.

"Done. Father said he'd take care of it. I expect Xiao Yuxin can go directly to Jiangcheng No. 1 High School tomorrow."

"So fast? Didn't they say the procedures are very complicated?" Xiao Yuxin was a bit surprised.

"My father knows the principal of Jiangcheng No. 1 High School. Transferring one student over isn't difficult at all," Yiran said as if it were a matter of course.

"That's great! Then we'll be schoolmates in the future. You two go and have fun. I'm going to stay home and review my schoolwork; there are some concepts I don't quite understand lately."

Xiao Yuchen knew this was an excuse Xiao Yuxin had made up, but he didn't expose her and left with Yiran.

...

Inside a bedroom of the Jiang Family, Jiang Mingcong was lying on the bed groaning. Beside him was a middle-aged man, who was none other than Jiang Mingcong's father, Jiang Shan.

"Father, have you found the whereabouts of that kid? You must take revenge for me."

The speaker was none other than Jiang Mingcong. After Xiao Yuchen left the restaurant that day, he had fallen into a coma. When the effects of the drug wore off, he actually suffered from incontinence, and his stomach was always aching faintly, causing him unbearable pain.

His father had found many famous doctors to examine him, but no matter how they checked, they couldn't find the source of the problem. What terrified him most was that he discovered he seemed to have lost his male potency.

For a master of the flower fields like him, losing his male potency was simply a fate worse than death. After thinking it over, he felt this must be the work of Xiao Yuchen, so he wanted revenge; he wanted to make Xiao Yuchen suffer a fate worse than death.

"I've found some leads. I investigated Xiao Yuxin, and she does indeed have an older brother named Xiao Yuchen. It must have been him who beat you. This Xiao Yuchen is a third-year student at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, but the school is on break for the next two days, so I haven't found his whereabouts yet."

"Then send people to block the entrance of the No. 2 High School to intercept Xiao Yuxin. As long as we catch Xiao Yuxin, are you afraid Xiao Yuchen won't show up?" Jiang Mingcong said viciously.

"Are you willing to do that? Don't you like that girl?" Jiang Shan's tone carried a hint of reproach. He, Jiang Shan, possessed billions in assets, yet his own son couldn't do anything and only knew how to play with women.

"The business world is like a battlefield; women are like clothes. I only wanted to play with her because she was pretty, but it turned out she didn't know what was good for her and conspired with her brother to plot against me. Then don't blame me for being ruthless," Jiang Mingcong said, shifting the blame.

"Hearing you say that, I'm relieved. I was worried you would let a woman ruin things. A man who wants to achieve great things cannot be held back by women. You must understand, when I pass away, the assets will all be yours. What kind of woman wouldn't you be able to find then?"

"I understand, Father. In the future, I won't act on impulse anymore, but this time I must vent my anger."

"Rest assured. He's just a high school student; he's not worth one of our Jiang Family Martial Artists taking action personally. I'll just find the Golden Sand Gang to handle it."

...

Xiao Yuchen naturally didn't know about the Jiang Family father and son's plot, but even if he did, he wouldn't care, because in his eyes, the Jiang Family was also just like ants.

After leaving home, Xiao Yuchen brought Yiran to Shengshi Beauty, the cosmetics company that Yiran's father had handed over to her to manage.

However, Xiao Yuchen didn't understand cosmetics, so he just followed behind Yiran the whole time without saying a word. The employees of Shengshi Beauty all took Xiao Yuchen to be the Young Miss's assistant.

After a simple inspection, Yiran looked at Xiao Yuchen and asked, "What do you think of this company?"

Xiao Yuchen was clearly stunned. He didn't expect Yiran to ask for his opinion, especially since he didn't understand cosmetics.

However, being asked by Yiran, he did have a new idea. Although he didn't understand cosmetics, he knew Alchemy. Although the medicinal ingredients for refining the youth-preserving pill were hard to find, he could refine the beauty pill.
