All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

This is something Jiang Tang discovered in the past.

Now, after hearing Yuan Ziji's account and analyzing the details between the lines, Jiang Tang has become even more certain of this.

I can't believe that someone like me and she can be together.

What secrets are hidden behind this?

Originally, Jiang Tang didn't want to investigate, after all, after his family's decline and his parents' disappearance, he had already given up much hope for his life.

As for the engagement, although no one came to dissolve it, Jiang Tang assumed it had been torn up long ago.

But now, one unexpected event after another has occurred, and he himself has inexplicably become a perfect gene recipient sought after by thousands.

So what is the effect of that marriage contract?

still there?

Jiang Peining cares about herself, and for that reason, she is willing to destroy the Lilith family's businesses throughout the Eastern world.

Is it because he is her fiancé, or is there some other hidden reason?

Everything was so puzzling.

Jiang Tang could never find the answer on his own.

Perhaps the most direct and straightforward way is to have a long-awaited reunion with Jiang Peining and talk to her.

Of course, she decided the time and place; this woman was used to being domineering.

Besides, Jiang Tang had no way to contact her directly.

For some reason, I have this strange feeling of waiting for the Empress to choose my consort...

Jiang Tang sighed and walked out of the art museum with Yuan Ziji.

I owe you a favor.

He suddenly spoke to Minamoto no Shiki.

This is as repayment for Minamoto no Shiki telling me all this.

"Oh my, really?"

"I'm already prepared to let you take advantage of me for free."

"I can't help but be surprised," said Minamoto no Shiki.

"Is the kind of freebie you're talking about... the legitimate kind of freebie I'm thinking of?"

"Hmph, what kind of legitimate freebie can you expect?"

"Ah, that seems true. No matter what kind of freebie it is, it doesn't seem very proper."

"In short, I will try my best to fulfill your wishes."

Jiang Tang said, adding a sentence at the same time.

"Except for physical rewards."

Just as Minamoto no Shiki opened her mouth to say something, she helplessly shut her mouth.

Jiang Tang was immediately filled with gratitude for the wisdom of his decision to add this move.

However, Minamoto no Shiki's cunning eyes darted around, and she immediately changed her tune.

"So what if I'm exempt? My wish is very simple, and I can tell you right now."

"All you need to do is go on a date with me, just like Lilith did."

"You choose the location, even if it's a bit mundane, like going to the movies."

"As for whether I can win you over in the end, that depends on my own abilities."

"..."

"Hey, how's it going?"

"Alright, as you wish."

As Jiang Tang finished speaking, Yuan Ziji's eyes lit up.

But how exactly will she conquer Jiang Tang? And will she even be able to...?

Everything is unknown.

However, Jiangtang is no longer what it used to be.

He possesses the unwavering devotion of Shi Xue, the mature gentleness of Chu Yun, the clumsy sweetness of Lilith, and the first love of An Qianxi…

For Minamoto no Shiki, who lacks all of these qualities, to stand out is incredibly difficult.

It's not that the more people you like, the more fickle you are.

For Jiang Tang...

His affection is precious; he doesn't give it away easily.

The more people like it.

The harder it is for someone to like another person.

302 Descended to the Mortal World

Knowing that Jiang Peining was watching him, Jiang Tang had mixed feelings.

But the thought that she might have someone relay messages about herself every day, while she sat gracefully somewhere, listening attentively, was unforgettable.

This scene alone is enough to make people laugh.

This leads one to wonder if she possesses a certain attribute called "tsundere".

But Jiang Tang knew that he was probably overthinking it.

She possesses pride, but her "delicate" quality is completely absent.

Jiang Tang and Yuan Ziji walked out of the exhibition hall, maintaining a polite distance as usual, and returned to the sports field together.

The competition on the sports field was nearing its end, and many students gathered around, ready to be called out when the game was dismissed.

Jiang Tang sent Minamoto Shiki to Lilith and Miyamoto Maizo's side, without having time to hear how Lilith mocked Minamoto Shiki or how Minamoto Shiki argued with Lilith.

He then hurried back to the class line to wait for the senior students sent by the student council to take attendance.

But it was at this very moment that his phone suddenly rang at an inopportune time.

Jiang Tang took his phone out of his pocket and found that it wasn't a phone call, but a voice call from a messaging app.

And the object of her affections was none other than President An Hongdou...

His brows furrowed slightly, wondering why the other party would contact him by voice at this time.

But before I could even think about it, my fingers had already reflexively acted.

He clicked to answer, and An Hongdou's usual natural and friendly voice filled his ears.

An Hongdou: Jiang Tang, you'll be in charge of taking attendance for your class. Report back to me in a bit.

Jiang Tang: Is this...is this really okay?

An Hongdou: Why not? You're the face of our school's student union.

Jiang Tang: ...I've never heard of such a thing before.

An Hongdou: Now you hear me, why are you stammering? Don't tell me you skipped class and weren't on the sports field.

An Hongdou: If you're not here, there's nothing I can do but help you...

An Hongdou wanted to say that she would secretly erase Jiang Tang's punishment.

As the president of the student council, he certainly has these privileges.

Jiang Tang: No, I'm on the playground. I'll go back to my class now.

Jiang Tang couldn't discern the hidden meaning in the words and simply responded truthfully.

An Hongdou: Okay, go ahead, I'm hanging up.

Jiang Tang: Goodbye.

The voice call ended without much further discussion, seemingly just a conversation between a president and a student council member.

Jiang Tang put his phone back in his pocket and hurried towards his class's line, feeling slightly troubled and nervous.

Under the shade of the trees where the sun couldn't reach, Mu Qimei, the counselor, unusually took her duty seriously and arrived early at the front of the class's line to organize and maintain order.

Jiang Tang's arrival at this time inevitably attracted her attention.

Her gaze deepened, but she ultimately chose to interact with Jiang Tang in the usual way.

"It's so slow, Jiang Tang, go back to your line."

Jiang Tang also wanted to, but since he had already accepted the task assigned by Senior Sister An, he decided to leave.

He coughed lightly and came to Ms. Mu Qimei's side, glancing somewhat embarrassedly at his classmates.

"Hello everyone, I'm in charge of taking attendance for the student council this time. Um... I'll just call the names according to the order on the class list."

After saying that, Jiang Tang ignored the surprised looks and discussions of the crowd.

Then he started calling out names from the class list he remembered.

This act of calling out names completely off-script is undoubtedly even more surprising and astonishing.

Keep in mind that school has only been in session for a short time, and most people don't even know everyone in their class except for their roommates.

Mu Qimei glanced at Jiang Tang beside her, first feeling the attraction of his perfect profile, and then she thought of something else.

It must have been Hongdou who arranged for him to come.

Anyway, it's good to get more practice. Showing off in various aspects will greatly help his future status on campus.

Although Jiang Tang himself was a guy who found the struggle for power and profit to be somewhat troublesome.

Jiang Tang quickly finished calling out the names of his class and announced the class was dismissed.

It was at this moment that he suddenly turned his head and glanced at Mu Qimei.
