“Boss, where are you going?” the students asked.

“To the capital.”

Yu Bingbing’s eyes were red as he said, “Boss, please wait for me! I’ll definitely get into a university in the capital and look for you!”

Jiang Chengye was rendered speechless by their words.

What was going on with these students?

How did Jiang Xun become the Boss?

Jiang Chengye looked at Min Zhengming, hoping that he would answer his questions, only for the man in question to walk to the car and open the back door. “Boss, please take a seat.”

Jiang Xun promptly headed over and sat in the car, after which Min Zhengming closed the door behind her before opening the car door for Jiang Chengye.

Jiang Chengye blinked.

Whose a.s.sistant was this?

“Who are you calling Boss?”Jiang Chengye sneered, to which Min Zhengming froze and slapped himself. Those students had brainwashed him into calling Jiang Xun the Boss!

When Jiang Chengye got into the back seat, he and Jiang Xun didn’t say anything to each other. He was still very unhappy that Jiang Xun had insisted on him coming over personally.

As for Jiang Xun, it was simply because she wasn’t familiar with Jiang Chengye that she had nothing to say. Since she was free now, she decided to take a look at the reward for completing the mission.

[Reward: increase lifespan by one year. ]

[Reward: activate ability panel. Please select an ability from the following options and add it to the panel. ]

[ A. Intelligence ]

[ B. Stamina ]

[ C. Strength ]

[ D. Speed ]

Jiang Xun blinked at the panel, then said to the system, “Is your system such a scam? Just activating the panel was already an ordeal, yet I only choose one ability to add to it? Couldn’t you be more upfront about your rewards system instead of using vague language? What can I even do with this ability panel?”

The system said, “This is the system developer’s fault! I Won’t take the blame. Anyway, Host, don’t get angry. It’s already so easy for you to earn MP, so you’ll be able to add a lot of abilities to the panel very quickly.”

“Heh? Why does it feel like you’re saying this out of spite?”

This stingy system clearly remembered her saying that MP was easy to earn.

At her words, the system decided to play dead and not answer her. In the meantime, Jiang Xun contemplated her choices.

She could only choose [ A. Intelligence ] first.

In the end, another sentence popped up on the interface.

[ Do you want to spend 10 Merit Points to add Intelligence to the panel? ]

“No, isn’t this the mission reward? Why do I have to spend more MP to add it into the panel?” Jiang Xun gritted her teeth.

“The mission reward is the permission to add an ability to the panel. It doesn’t include the ability itself.”

Jiang Xun pursed her lips at the system’s timid answer. Fortunately, she had acc.u.mulated 56 Merit Points, which was barely enough to cover all the abilities available, so she selected the [ Yes] option.

With a ding, the Intelligence ability was added to the panel.

Jiang Xun then decided that she wanted to add the remaining 46 MP to her Intelligence, so she explored a little and found out how to enhance her skill, only for a message to pop up.

[Would you like to Exchange 10 Merit Points for 1 Intelligence Point? ]

“…”

At this point, she had nothing to say to the system.

The system said awkwardly, “I-It’s all the developers’ fault.”

“Your developers are wasting their talent on scamming people.”

She then exchanged 40 MP for 4 Intelligence points and enhanced her ability. The moment she added them, Jiang Xun felt a cool breeze pa.s.s through her mind, as if something had been unlocked.

She immediately took out a set of geography papers from her school bag and realized that she could now answer all the questions she was previously unsure of.

The corresponding knowledge and the teacher’s explanations quickly flooded her mind. Some of this knowledge had been forgotten by the original Host, while others were simply not fully understood. Either way, everything was now clear to her.

Jiang Xun tried a few more sets of test papers for other subjects, and they were all the same. She could even answer all the complicated questions.

She didn’t expect that a mere 4 Intelligence points could have such an effect. She couldn’t help but think that even though the system might have conned her out of all her MP, at least they hadn’t conned her out of the effects of her ability.

Since she had nothing to do, Jiang Xun looked at the new mission that had popped up. The next mission was still a beginner mission, but it required 50 Merit Points to unlock. Right now, the mission bar was grayed out, and Jiang Xun couldn’t even see the mission requirements.

The only thing she could do was to start acc.u.mulating MP again.

Throughout the entire journey to the Jiang Family’s house, no one said a word to each other in the car.

Inside the Jiang family’s villa.

Feng Nianzhen had already gotten someone to prepare Jiang Xun’s room and double check it

“Dad doesn’t care about her, Mom, why are you still making it so grand?” Jiang Yuexi complained as she sat on the sofa.

“It’s just a superficial act,” Feng Nianzhen said as she walked back. “You should still put on an act in front of your dad. The more reasonable we are and the better we treat her, the more your dad will believe us and not her if we ever come into conflict with her.”

“Hmph. Anyway, I won’t treat her as my sister,” Jiang Yuexi said unhappily, “Seriously, there were only four of us in the first place. Things are already so comfortable, but now that that outsider is here, things feel a little off. Not only that, she has to share the things with Jixuan and me.”

Feng Nianzhen patted her hand, trying to pacify her. “No one can take away what belongs to you and your brother. She won’t have a good life when she comes to our house. But even though we are scheming against her behind her back, you have to act friendly to her in front of your father.”

“Don’t worry.”Jiang Yuexi looked proud when she said this. “I’m a person who pa.s.sed the National Drama Academy’s Acting Cla.s.s. Doing that will be a piece of cake.”

Feng Nianzhen smiled at her daughter and said, “However, your father has no feelings for her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left her in the countryside for 11 years. It was only because she’s grown up that he has to bring her back now. See, he only sent his a.s.sistant to pick her up; he doesn’t care about her at all. We just need to put on a show and scheme behind her back so that even if she complains, your father will take our side. She won’t be able to stir up any trouble here. Just treat her as a poor relative who came from the countryside.”

“Bear with it for a while. I’ll kick her out sooner or later,” Feng Nianzhen said in a low voice while holding her daughter’s hand.

“Madam, Mistress, Master Jiang is back. He seems to have brought…” the maid, Aunt Zhang, came over and looked at Jiang Yuexi carefully before saying, “Miss Jiang is back.”

Jiang Yuexi was stunned, and her face immediately darkened. “Didn’t you say that Father doesn’t value her at all? Why did he bring her back personally?”

Feng Nianzhen sneered. “Maybe he just happened to run into her when he came back.”

“But it’s work time now. Dad usually doesn’t come back at this time.” Jiang Yuexi followed Feng Nianzhen to the entrance and waited patiently.

“We’ll find out later when we ask him. The thing is that there’s no way he would go back just for her.” Feng Nianzhen looked amused. “Do you think that your dad will pick that country girl up personally? We’ve spent so long brainwas.h.i.+ng him that he doesn’t have any lingering attachment to her. The only relations.h.i.+p they have now is a blood relations.h.i.+p!”
