Chapter 207: Corrupt Life, Plot Correction
“Young Master, dinner is ready. Do you need to eat now?” Ah Qing walked to Jiang Che’s side and asked, her face blushing like an apple, looking extremely cute, making one want to take a bite.
“Let’s eat first.” Jiang Che sat down at the dining table and started eating. Ah Qing and Ji Menglan sat on either side of him, continuously putting food into his bowl. Jiang Che enjoyed the delicious meal.
Having both a mature woman and a young girl to accompany him every day, this kind of life was priceless. After dinner, Jiang Che went straight to his bedroom.

Looking at the remaining 30,000 Villain Points, Jiang Che felt a bit regretful. He originally wanted to level up again, breaking through to the late stage of the Unity of Man and Heaven, but now it seemed unrealistic.
It looked like he still needed to keep targeting Huang Xiaolong. After all, Huang Xiaolong still had 15,000 luck points. If he could drain them all, that would translate to 30,000 Villain Points!
That would be enough for him to elevate his cultivation to the late stage of the Unity of Man and Heaven. With this in mind, Jiang Che took a bath and laid on the bed, soon falling into a deep sleep.
The next day, after washing up, Jiang Che drove out of Crouching Dragon Villa.
According to the plot development, after attending Bai Chunfeng’s birthday banquet, Huang Xiaolong would win his favor and temporarily stay at the Bai family.
Then he would solve the Bai family’s Feng Shui problem, ultimately earning Old Man Bai’s trust, who would then eagerly marry his granddaughter to Huang Xiaolong.
Jiang Che found this kind of brainless plot very ridiculous. Normally, even if Huang Xiaolong had done you a favor, it wouldn’t warrant such a response, right?
It could only be said that the protagonist’s plot armor was too terrifying. After witnessing Huang Xiaolong’s abilities, Old Man Bai instinctively believed that Huang Xiaolong was the only master in the world and started to fawn over him.
Although Jiang Che had disrupted Huang Xiaolong’s plans at the Bai family the day before, he wasn’t sure if Huang Xiaolong would still end up at the Bai family due to some stroke of luck.
After all, plots had an uncontrollable ability to restore themselves unless Jiang Che acted faster in every situation or completely exhausted Huang Xiaolong’s luck. Otherwise, his opportunities would never cease.
Thinking of this, Jiang Che took out his phone and dialed his bodyguard. He had always had people monitoring Huang Xiaolong, so he decided to ask about the latest situation.
“Young Master.” The call was quickly answered by a respectful middle-aged man.
“Where is Huang Xiaolong now?” Jiang Che asked directly, without any preamble.
“Huang Xiaolong met Bai Chunfeng at an auction yesterday. He is now at the Bai family.”
“As expected…” Hearing the bodyguard’s answer, Jiang Che understood.
He had forgotten about the auction. As the male protagonist of a typical urban novel, how could Huang Xiaolong not attend an auction?
Moreover, he probably found some treasures at the auction, earning his first pot of gold. But it’s not too late now. Jiang Che just needed to go to the Bai family and disrupt Huang Xiaolong’s plans.
And even if Huang Xiaolong didn’t get anything good at the auction, early-stage plots didn’t usually provide him with anything substantial. Otherwise, how would the author drag out the story?
In such novels that span five to ten million words, the protagonist’s progress was extremely slow, often taking hundreds of chapters to level up once.
“Got it. Keep monitoring him and report any updates to me.” After hanging up, Jiang Che drove towards the Bai family villa.
……
Inside the Bai family villa, in the living room.
Bai Chunfeng had a servant pour tea for Huang Xiaolong, who was sitting opposite him. He then asked curiously.
“My young friend, you say my Bai family’s Feng Shui has issues?” After meeting Huang Xiaolong at the auction yesterday, Bai Chunfeng was shocked by his extraordinary medical skills and immediately invited him to his home, intending to win him over.
But upon returning home, Huang Xiaolong claimed that the Bai family’s Feng Shui had problems, which made Bai Chunfeng feel a bit strange.
Although he always believed in these mystical things, he didn’t think Huang Xiaolong would know about Feng Shui.
After all, Huang Xiaolong’s medical skills were already astonishing. It was unlikely he would have deep knowledge in Feng Shui as well.
If someone could master one field to the extreme, they could be considered a genius. It was very rare for someone to achieve success in multiple fields simultaneously, almost impossible.
But he overlooked Huang Xiaolong’s status as the protagonist. For the protagonist, anything was possible!
After all, protagonists were always protected by destiny. Even a pig could soar to the skies with enough fortune, let alone a human.
“That’s right, your Bai family’s Feng Shui has problems.” Huang Xiaolong nodded decisively. He had noticed something unusual about the Bai family’s Feng Shui during the birthday banquet, but hadn’t had the chance to tell Bai Chunfeng.
“What kind of problem?” Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s serious expression, Bai Chunfeng’s face became even more puzzled.
He had some knowledge about these things. Generally, Feng Shui issues would cause misfortunes, business losses, or unexplained deaths in the family.
But none of these had happened to the Bai family! In fact, the Bai family had been thriving under his leadership.
“I need to see your family’s ancestral tomb to find out…” Huang Xiaolong hesitated for a moment before speaking. It wasn’t possible to determine anything from here.
But the faint aura of malice lingering in the Bai family villa didn’t lie. He was certain there was a problem.
Hearing Huang Xiaolong’s words, Bai Chunfeng gave him a deep look. To be honest, he didn’t believe him, but he didn’t want to reject Huang Xiaolong’s good intentions either. It was just Feng Shui, nothing too serious.
With this thought, Bai Chunfeng stood up from his chair, intending to take Huang Xiaolong to their ancestral tomb.
