Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

The name Mr. Jiang was flooding the talks among the upper society of Jiang City recently, all the circles discussed about this person. Ye Wenchen revealed what he knew, "Rumors about this Mr. Jiang are too extraordinary as if he was a God. My father told me that even Tang Zhenshan and Ye Yiliang obey him."

Everyone knew that Tang Zhenshan and Ye Yiliang held high positions in Jiang City. They weren't some random thugs but rather the super big shots of Jiang City who possessed a lot of influence.

Their financial resources and background were so powerful that even the city hall didn't dare provoke them. They could also directly call Gu Shu of the provincial capital. Without enough qualifications, there's no way that call would go through.

And these kind of people were actually willing to obey this Mr. Jiang, so there was no doubt he was someone amazing.

"I wonder when we'll be able to reach the same level as Mr. Jiang."

The gazes of several youths and girls present on the scene glittered.

Though it wasn't possible for them to achieve it, their hearts yearned for it.

They naturally felt a kind of worship towards such a significant figure.

Sun Xiaohong said, "You always have this opportunity. Once your family's business grows larger, you'll definitely obtain the chance to see Mr. Jiang in person. However, there are some people, who can only hear this name but can never meet the person in their entire lifetime."

Her gaze dropped on Jiang Xiu who still assumed a calm and indifferent manner.

Sun Xiaohong was filled with rage when she saw his manners which had no sense of shame.

Looks like you have a thick face.

Do you want me to point towards you and then scold?

"Little Xiu, is the business of your family's fruit stall doing well?"

"Ought to be."

"How much do you make a day? 100, 200, or 300?"

Everyone exposed disdain.

"Dunno."

Jiang Xiu knew that this woman always harbored evil intentions and tried to humiliate their family. She didn't even restrain the dislike she felt on her face.

"Little Xiu, listen to Aunt's words. Your parents are working hard to sell fruits, betting all they have so that you can read in a good university. In the future, though you can't reach the same level as upper-class elites like Little Chen and Qianqian, you must at least try to find an office job, and not do those heavy jobs like your parents."

"But you're really not making much money. I hear that the school covered the fee for the bottom rung of this time's mock exam?"

A few of them looked towards Jiang Xiu with schadenfreude.

"In your current situation, let alone passing the exam for an undergraduate course, you won't even pass the exam for a polytechnic course. What's the matter? Are you unable to work hard or is your intelligence lacking?"

She actually said that the grand Deity Xiu's IQ has a problem.

Jiang Xiu's expression turned heavy as he spoke in a blunt tone, "There's no need for you to worry about the matters of this Deity's home."

"And this Deity's grades are more so unrelated to you."

"You…"

Sun Xiaohong almost lost her mind.

"Good. Very good. Looks like you have great future prospects then. I'll just wait and see what university you'll qualify for…"

"If this Deity wished to, it's an easy matter to qualify for the Imperial Capital's Imperial University."

"Remember those words. If you're unable to qualify, forget about the engage…"

"Mom!"

Cheng Lingsu shouted nervously, fearing that her mother would reveal the matter between her and Jiang Xiu due to the impulse. Luckily, the doorway's doorbell rang at this time.

Someone had arrived.

Hasn't everyone already arrived?

"Young Lady!"

Nanny Wu opened the door and was stunned. A voice followed after that, "Wow, so many shoes. Looks like many people have come to visit home. Doesn't it make it look like I made such a quick journey in vain?"

That voice was gentle and sweet-sounding, bringing comfort to whoever hears it.

A beautiful figure entered immediately after that. It was a tall woman, around 170 cms, her appearance was similar to Cheng Lingsu's, yet she was prettier than her, and her gaze was gentle and lovelier."

"Yay, Sis!"

Cheng Lingsu called out excitedly and dashed towards that girl.

The two girls hugged each other.

"Didn't you say you're not coming back?" Cheng Lingsu pouted her mouth in a spoiled manner.

Jiang Xiu slowly turned his head. At the moment he had heard this voice, his calm heart had once again started to beat rapidly. Three millenniums, he hadn't seen her for a full three millenniums.

The woman who had arrived was Cheng Lingsu's elder sister, Cheng Lingran.

"It's the Second Young Lady's birthday. Why wouldn't I come back?"

"Where's my present then?"

"I've prepared it long ago for you. Were you waiting for you Sis or for your Sis's present?" Cheng Lingran pinched Cheng Lingsu's nose.

If there was anyone who treated Jiang Xiu sincerely in the Cheng family, it was Cheng Lingran. Because she was older than Jiang Xiu, Cheng Lingran often took care of him during their childhood. Jiang Xiu also clung to her often. However, after Papa Jiang got jailed, the contact between them was almost broken. He could see Cheng Lingsu at school but had no opportunity to meet Cheng Lingran.

The ill-fated relationship began after Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling had passed away in the previous timeline. For some reason, maybe due to a guilty conscience or perhaps sympathy, Cheng Lingran was the only one among the Cheng family who took care of him, not agreeing to leave him alone even if he threatened to kill her.

The emotion had taken root very profoundly, and it was hard to free himself from it. Jiang Xiu then realized that the love he had during his childhood was for the sister, Cheng Lingran, and not Cheng Lingsu.

"Mom!"

"Ranran…"

Cheng Lingran hugged her mother like a spoiled child, rubbing her pretty face against her cheeks.

"Sis Ranran!"

Who knows what good did the Cheng family's ancestors had done to be blessed by such a pair of peerless pearls. Ye Wenchen, Lin Shu, and the other youths were left stunned by Cheng Lingran's smile.

"Little Xiu…" Cheng Lingran was pleasantly surprised when she spotted Jiang Xiu. She didn't expect that he had also come.

"Sis…"

During his childhood, as Jiang Xiu didn't have any brothers or sisters and their families still had intimate relationships, he used to call Cheng Lingran as Sis. He continued using this call and never changed it, so he subconsciously blurted it out.

Ye Wenchen and the others wore a cold smile, looking at Jiang Xiu with displeasure.

You think you can call her Sis?

You must have lost your mind after seeing Sis Ranran's beauty.

Indeed a frog at the bottom of the well.

In the previous timeline, due to the unforeseen events, Jiang Xiu and Cheng Lingran formed an ill-fated relationship. It can be said that Cheng Lingran had atoned for the crimes of the Cheng family and Cheng Lingsu very much. Therefore, no matter how excessive Jiang Xiu acted or no matter what he did to her, she neither complained nor resisted and silently bore it. Jiang Xiu had obtained Cheng Lingran in exchange for his parent's deaths.

However, things were different in this generation. The unforeseen events didn't happen so Cheng Lingran naturally wouldn't accept Jiang Xiu. What pained Jiang Xiu's heart was that he could never figure out whether Cheng Lingran loved him or not in the end.

Jiang Xiu felt a piercing pain in his heart confronting Cheng Lingran's warm gaze towards him. Those aloof people and even the Gods found it difficult to ultimately achieve an emotionless state. There would inevitably be some emotion left.

"Should Fate be left unchanged?"

"That would be something too much!"

Jiang Xiu knew that it wasn't possible. If only his parents suffered a tragedy like in the previous timeline would it happen, but there was no way he'd allow his parents to get hurt so that he can get a woman. That was absolutely impossible.

Then, the only thing he could do was to bury these feelings in the depths of his hearts.

It's okay as long as she lives well.

"Little Xiu…"

Cheng Lingran discovered that Jiang Xiu had grown taller, even half a head taller than her. She still remembered that he was shorter than her the last time she saw him.

Although she had recognized him at a glance, this former neighbor of hers had changed a lot. His features seemed as if carved out of marble with a gaze as deep as the oceans, a mysterious glint flickering in those eyes, containing bone-piercing grief. Her gaze couldn't help but reveal tenderness facing that.

"You've grown taller and also become handsome… Wuhuhu…"

Cheng Lingsu covered her mouth before she could finish speaking, fearing that she'd reveal everything.

"Sis, come with me."

Cheng Lingsu pulled Cheng Lingran into her room and locked it from inside. She explained that her classmates didn't know about the relationship between her and Jiang Xiu so she asked her to keep it a secret.

Cheng Lingran naturally promised her dear little sister's request, showing her an OK sign.

By the time Cheng Lingran came out, she had discovered that Jiang Xiu was missing. Cheng Lingsu asked, "Where did he go?"

"He said he's has something to do and left!"

"It's good that he left. Just his presence is irksome here."

Sun Xiaohong's anger still hadn't quelled.

Cheng Lingran exposed a troubled expression as her eyes gazed towards the doorway, revealing the concern she felt.
