Sun Li's face turned pale upon hearing the name.
She might not have much worldly knowledge, but she had heard of Jiang Zhenlin.
He was one of the Four Young Masters of Jiangcheng, and the Jiang family had always been known as the wealthiest in Jiangcheng.
Although there were no specific statistics, the very existence of such a saying indicated that the Jiang family had indeed reached that level.
Sun Li instantly sobered up. All her dreams of a domineering CEO's true love vanished like smoke.
It would be truly bizarre for someone like Jiang Zhenlin to be interested in her.
“Do you have a grudge against Chen Xiao? So you just want to use me to get revenge on him?”
Sun Li's intelligence suddenly kicked in.
Jiang Zhenlin shook his head and denied it, "I wouldn't say I'm using you. I just want to tell you that we have a common enemy."
Sun Li looked bewildered. "You mean the enemy of my enemy is my friend? You're being so nice to me just because I have a feud with Chen Xiao?"
This reason was far-fetched and hard to believe.
However, that was the reality of the situation.
Jiang Zhenlin's initial contact with Sun Li was purely to annoy Chen Xiao, a casual endeavor, as he believed Sun Li had no real value.
But after noticing the old Taoist's gaze towards Sun Li just now, he suddenly found her value.
He asked with a sinister grin, "Chen Xiao treated you like that, don't you want revenge?"
Sun Li gritted her teeth and said venomously, "I wish he would die and go straight to hell!"
Jiang Zhenlin smiled. "Now, your chance for revenge has arrived."
Sun Li's face lit up with excitement. "You're going to help me deal with Chen Xiao?"
Jiang Zhenlin shook his head again. "No, no, no. With your and my strength, dealing with Chen Xiao isn't very realistic."
Sun Li was completely stunned. Had Chen Xiao become this powerful? Even someone of Jiang Zhenlin's caliber couldn't handle him?
Thinking of this, her heart sank again.
What kind of person had she abandoned!
Then, she suddenly recalled Jiang Zhenlin's earlier words and asked urgently:
"Even you can't deal with him, so who can? And where is the chance for revenge?"
Jiang Zhenlin's eyes flickered as he looked towards the bedroom where the old Taoist was. "The only one who can deal with Chen Xiao is him!"
"What? He can deal with Chen Xiao?"
Sun Li asked incredulously.
That old Taoist looked like a beggar. How could he possibly deal with someone that even Jiang Zhenlin couldn't handle?
Sun Li was highly skeptical.
Jiang Zhenlin said coldly, "Why else do you think I invited him here? Do you think I have nothing better to do? Moreover, he seems to have taken a liking to you. You know what you need to do next, right?"
Sun Li wasn't stupid. On the contrary, she was quite shrewd in certain aspects.
Therefore, she naturally understood what Jiang Zhenlin meant.
However, the thought of the dirty old Taoist made Sun Li reject the idea from head to toe.
"Young Master Jiang... perhaps you could find someone else? This is too difficult."
Sun Li said cautiously.
Jiang Zhenlin's expression turned grim. "Sun Li, do you think I'm discussing this with you? You've been living here, enjoying my hospitality these past few days. You can't possibly offer nothing in return, can you?"
"Furthermore, if you can please him, not only will you get your revenge, but I will immediately transfer this house to your name. Think about it. I'll give you ten seconds to make your choice!"
Sun Li couldn't help but shiver, because she knew very well that Jiang Zhenlin's "choice" only had two options.
Either she would serve the old Taoist, or she would die.
Finally, under Jiang Zhenlin's coercion and enticement, Sun Li slowly walked towards the bedroom and pushed open the door.
Jiang Zhenlin sneered, "That's more like it..."
Soon, unspeakable sounds emanated from the bedroom.
Jiang Zhenlin was aroused, even suspecting the old Taoist had taken some kind of stimulant, given his vigor.
More than two hours later, the old Taoist opened the bedroom door. He strode out, wearing his tattered Taoist robe.
The robe was untied, revealing his robust muscles.
Jiang Zhenlin was secretly astonished. This old Taoist looked to be eighty or ninety years old, yet his physique was so well-maintained, even more toned than his own! He truly looked like an immortal!
Sun Li followed closely behind the old Taoist.
Her face was flushed with desire, her eyes languid and alluring, a stark contrast to her reluctant demeanor when she entered.
At this moment, Sun Li was utterly satisfied, her body and mind completely fulfilled.
She had undergone a transformation, for she had understood a profound truth.
Appearances and age were fleeting; in the face of true skill, they were utterly insignificant!
Jiang Zhenlin was dumbfounded. "Holy cow, this woman is so lustful? She could even take this old Taoist?"
"She truly has a natural seductive bone structure. I should have tasted her first!"
As Jiang Zhenlin was lost in his thoughts, the old Taoist seemed to read his mind.
The old Taoist pointed at Sun Li, stared at Jiang Zhenlin, and said word by word, "Her. Mine."
Jiang Zhenlin immediately suppressed his improper thoughts and bowed subserviently, "Understood, understood!"
Sun Li smiled charmingly, winked at Jiang Zhenlin, her eyes filled with triumph.
The old Taoist sat on the sofa with a commanding posture. With a gesture, Sun Li obediently nestled into his embrace, serving him water and fruit.
"Daoist Master, are you satisfied?"
Jiang Zhenlin asked cautiously.
The old Taoist said indifferently, "So-so."
Jiang Zhenlin quickly said, "Daoist Master, if you have any other requests, please do not hesitate to ask. I will do my best to fulfill them."
The old Taoist thought for a moment. "Not for now."
Jiang Zhenlin then asked, "What about Chen Xiao's matter?"
The old Taoist glared at him. "Why are you in such a hurry? When I am ready, I will naturally inform you."
"Yes, yes!"
Jiang Zhenlin nodded subserviently, filled with awe and trepidation.
He had only known this old Taoist for a few days. After his sister was forced to kneel at the school gate, he vowed to kill Chen Xiao and avenge his sister.
That evening, he was drowning his sorrows at a nightclub with a group of his dissolute friends.
This old Taoist approached him, claiming he could help him get revenge.
He didn't believe it at first. However, when the old Taoist effortlessly turned all his friends into dust, he knew that Chen Xiao's death was imminent.
Besides seeking revenge through the old Taoist, he was also extremely covetous of the old Taoist's skills.
"Daoist Master, I have a humble request. I wish to become your disciple. What do you think?"
The old Taoist snorted, "Your aptitude is too poor, you are not worthy to be my disciple. If you are willing to become my godson, I can teach you a few moves for self-defense."
Jiang Zhenlin hesitated for a moment. As the eldest son of the Jiang family, becoming a godson to an old Taoist would be somewhat embarrassing for the Jiang family.
But thinking of the humiliation he had suffered, his eyes blazed with anger, and he made his decision.
He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed!
"Father, please accept your son's bow!"
