Chapter 110.1: A Silver Alliance Leader Descends from the Sky, Owing Thirty Chapters!

Super long chapter, so I’m splitting it.

===

What was Jiang Miao feeling at this moment?

He found it difficult to describe.

But he could certainly describe the current situation.

He, a boy, appeared in a girl’s home in the middle of the night.

The girl, wearing a white bathrobe, had just come out of the bathroom while he was dressed in her father’s gray bathrobe.

In his hand was her father’s shirt that he had changed out of before showering, and on his feet were her father’s slippers.

And then he bumped into her father, who rarely came.

A lone man and a woman under the same roof in the middle of the night were encountered by her father.

They weren’t even to the point of meeting the parents, but here he was, caught red-handed… Jiang Miao was panicking, his heart beating wildly like a drum.

But to his surprise, when Senior Sister’s father heard that he was her boyfriend, his eyes were first surprised and then even seemed to flicker with a hint of delight.

What surprised him even more was that her reaction was nothing like what a typical girl would have.

How should he put it…

She seemed very calm?

Or perhaps she was especially indifferent?

Despite the gentle smile on her face, Jiang Miao felt no warmth from it at all.

It was much colder than her usual warm attitude towards others at school.

“Don’t move. I’m going to blow dry your hair.” Su Huaizhou returned behind Jiang Miao, plugged in the hairdryer, and switched it on.

The buzzing sound filled the air.

He sat uneasily on the couch, enduring the curious gaze of the uncle opposite him while Senior Sister tousled his hair and blow dried it.

“Why are you here?” Su Huaizhou asked Su Dajiang while blow drying Junior Brother’s hair.

Su Dajiang, holding his glass of water with both hands, immediately appeared nervous after his daughter addressed him. “There was a drinking party nearby tonight, so I thought I’d stop by to check the condo since it was close.”

“Oh.” He nodded, her tone calm. “Now that you’ve checked it, can you leave?”

Su Dajiang: “…”

Xiao Zhang: “…”

Jiang Miao: “…”

Oh my god!

Why does Senior Sister’s aura feel even stronger than her dad’s?

Is this really the same Senior Sister who was pouting and throwing a tantrum during the day?!

Are women so fickle?

“Ahem, yeah, seems so.” Su Dajiang smiled awkwardly and glanced at Jiang Miao on the couch. “You two have a room each. Xiao Zhang and I really don’t have anywhere to stay, so we’ll leave first.”

Hearing this, Jiang Miao immediately felt embarrassed.

But just as he was about to say something, Senior Sister pressed his head down.

After hearing her father’s words, Su Huaizhou seemed to think of something, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

“There’s still a room.” She smiled subtly. “We’ll sleep in the master bedroom. If you and Brother Zhang don’t mind, you can sleep in the guest room for the night.”

As soon as she said this, Su Dajiang’s eyes changed again, and the look he gave Jiang Miao became even more peculiar.

Fuck! Jiang Miao’s expression changed drastically, and he immediately felt a strong sense of foreboding.

Senior Sister, don’t spout nonsense!

The way you’re talking makes it sound like something serious has already happened between us!!

Look, Uncle is already misunderstanding!!!

Jiang Miao really wanted to explain.

But the small hand on his head gradually applied more pressure.

It seemed that as long as he said the wrong thing, he’d be yanked up by the hair.

“… Alright!” Su Dajiang nodded firmly. “We’ll stay in the guest room for the night.”

“Uh, Uncle Su…” Xiao Zhang hesitated. “Should I go back to the hotel?”

“If Brother Zhang is leaving, you can leave with him,” Su Huaizhou said calmly, casting him a brief glance.

“Of course not!” Su Dajiang slung his arm around Xiao Zhang’s neck and chuckled. “Xiao Zhang is just being polite. It’s rare for him to come by, so of course he’s staying the night.”

Xiao Zhang, though filled with reluctance, could only nod awkwardly after seeing Su Dajiang’s forced smile. “Then, sorry to disturb you…”

“It’s good you know you’re disturbing us.” Su Huaizhou rubbed Junior Brother’s hair. After confirming that it was dry, she turned off the hairdryer. “Oh, I’m not talking about Brother Zhang. If you came alone, we would have welcomed you warmly.”

Xiao Zhang sat still with a stiff grin, pretending not to understand.

Although he knew about the strained relationship between the father and daughter, he didn’t expect it to be so bad.

He was already kicking himself in his head.

If he had known this would happen, he would have firmly refused to come up when downstairs.

“Well, do whatever you like.” Su Huaizhou put the hairdryer away, pulled Jiang Miao’s hand, and walked towards the bedroom.

He obediently followed and walked into the bedroom.

The moment the door closed, the tension in the air seemed to dissipate, and all four people simultaneously sighed in relief.

“Senior Sister…”

“Don’t say a word!” Su Huaizhou shot him a glare. “This is just a temporary measure. I didn’t agree to be your girlfriend!”

“No problem.” Jiang Miao relaxed when he saw Senior Sister return to her usual self. “A third of a girlfriend is still a girlfriend.”

“Now you’re getting cheeky.” She gave him a light kick. “Why wasn’t your tongue so glib just now?”

“How could I dare?!” His face fell. “Senior Sister, didn’t you say that your dad basically doesn’t come here? I was almost scared to death.”

“…” Su Huaizhou was speechless. “How would I know what got into him?”

“But Senior Sister, I feel that you and your dad…”

Halfway through his sentence, she shook her head at him, clearly not wanting to discuss this.

Seeing this, he shut his mouth and stopped talking about it.

After all, it was her family matter. Although it should become his family matter in the future, at least it wasn’t yet.

Setting these thoughts aside, Jiang Miao looked at the moonlight night outside the window and then at the big bed in the bedroom. “Senior Sister, are we sleeping on the same bed tonight?”

Su Huaizhou, while fiddling with her hair, turned around and snapped, “So, you’d rather squeeze into a bed with those two?”

“No.” He shook his head repeatedly.

He only felt that this whole situation was surreal.

It had clearly started out with a scene of being busted by his future father-in-law, so how did it become his father-in-law’s perfect assist?

Wait!

Father-in-Law clearly said they were going to leave just now.

But Senior Sister actually kindly let them stay.

Isn’t this obviously an excuse for us to sleep in the same bed?

Jiang Miao chuckled to himself and secretly took out his phone to message Congee Boss.

[Peach Jam]: Boss, do you think my senior sister deliberately let my father-in-law and Brother Zhang stay so she could sleep in the same bed with me tonight?

Su Huaizhou felt her phone vibrate. She looked at it and immediately blushed. She didn’t expect her little scheme to be seen through so easily.

[Congee Boss]: Why are you so narcissistic?

[Peach Jam]: It’s not that I’m narcissistic. When Brother Zhang said he was leaving, my senior sister insisted he stay. I suspect she’s worried that my father-in-law might make me sleep in the same room as him, so she’s keeping Brother Zhang to take up the bed.

When Su Huaizhou saw the message, her expression changed drastically. She felt that Junior Brother was simply a roundworm in her stomach.

[Congee Boss]: Why are you thinking so much?! It’s late. Go to sleep already.

Jiang Miao held back his laughter and wanted to throw himself onto Senior Sister’s fragrant bed immediately.

But the next second, his expression changed as he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t closed his writing software on the computer in the guest bedroom.

He immediately turned around and said, “Senior Sister, I need to go to the bathroom!”

He hurried out of the bedroom and rushed into the guest room.

At a glance…

Su Dajiang and Xiao Zhang were sitting and standing respectively, both looking curiously at the writing software on the monitor.

Jiang Miao: “!”

Xiao Zhang: “!!”

Su Dajiang: “!!!”

Seeing Jiang Miao barge in, Su Dajiang was even more nervous than Jiang Miao was. He quickly grabbed him and slammed the door shut with a bang.

“Shh!!!” He urged Jiang Miao anxiously. “Don’t make a sound! Don’t let Zhouzhou find out!”

Jiang Miao: “???”

What does that mean?

What does this have to do with Senior Sister?

The main character is right here!

Jiang Miao’s face was full of question marks as Su Dajiang pulled him to the bed and sat him down.

“Ahem, so…” Su Dajiang’s attitude was quite friendly. With a smile on his face, he asked, “How should I address you?”

“Hello, Uncle. I’m Jiang Miao.”

“Good name, good name!” Su Dajiang rubbed his hands together and negotiated with him shamelessly. “You see, my relationship with my daughter isn’t all that great. If she finds out I’ve peeked at what she wrote, she’ll probably kick me out immediately.

“Can you keep it a secret?

“Don’t worry. I won’t interfere with my daughter’s relationship. As long as you don’t mistreat her, everything is fine!”

Jiang Miao: “???”

He stared at Su Dajiang with his mouth open, then glanced at the monitor on the desk. Finally, he understood. Does Father-in-Law think Senior Sister wrote the novel?!

But on second thought, it wasn’t that strange…

After all, it was a romance novel… This type of novel did seem more fitting for a girl.

Moreover, the pen name was Peach Jam…

Jiang Miao gulped. He originally wanted to explain, but now, he felt it was better not to.

After all, if his father-in-law found out that he, a grown man, was writing this, wouldn’t that be social death on the spot?

In that case, I can only wrong you, Senior Sister!

“Okay, don’t worry, Uncle. I won’t say a word.” Jiang Miao nodded earnestly. “But can you close the things on the computer? I’m afraid Zhouzhou might come in any minute.”

“Huh?” Su Dajiang hesitated, clearly reluctant. After all, it wasn’t often he got opportunities to see ‘another side’ of his daughter. “Can I read it for a bit longer?”

Jiang Miao: “…”

“Uncle Su,” Xiao Zhang chimed in. “You can find Zhouzhou’s novel online. You can go online to read it.”

“Yes, but it’s only authentic on the Xidian website,” Jiang Miao quickly emphasized. “Other sites are pirating it, so make sure you support the right one, Uncle.”

“Oh, I see.” Su Dajiang instantly understood. With their help, he quickly downloaded the Xidian app. After reading the details on the novel’s page, he fell into thought. “So, this book can make money?”

“Yes.”

“How much can it make in a month?”

“About ten thousand?” Jiang Miao estimated.

“No wonder.” Su Dajiang clicked his tongue. “I was wondering why she hasn’t asked for any living expenses this year. She even sent the money back when I tried. It turns out that she’s grown independent.”

Hearing this, Jiang Miao broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that Senior Sister probably earned her money from commissioned artwork.

Still, it wasn’t entirely wrong to understand it this way.

After all, he would be very happy to support her.

“Um, Uncle.” Jiang Miao hesitated. “Should I go back now?”

“Hey, wait!” Seeing him trying to slip away, Su Dajiang quickly stopped him and pressed him back onto the bed, chuckling. “Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Let’s talk.”

Being trapped here, Jiang Miao immediately felt uneasy. “What do you want to talk about?”

“How did you manage to win over my daughter?” Su Dajiang asked his most puzzled question. “To be honest, I always thought Zhouzhou planned to live alone for the rest of her life.”

“…” Jiang Miao opened his mouth, not knowing where to start.

Could he really say your daughter practically gave herself away, using gathering material as an excuse to seduce me and even encouraging me under a different alias?

If he said that, the image of Su Dajiang’s daughter in his eyes would probably collapse instantly.

“Well… it’s kind of a long story.”

“Take your time.”

“Actually…” Jiang Miao’s eyes darted around, and his mind raced as he continued, “I’m a fan of Zhouzhou novels. I’ve always supported her because I really like her work.”

“Mhm, go on.” Su Dajiang sat on a chair, listening intently.

“Later, I helped draw some illustrations for her novels. After a while, we got to know each other online.”

“And then?” Su Dajiang’s curiosity was piqued.

“Then, while chatting, we realized we went to the same college.”

“You also go to the School of Business?!”

“Yes.”

“Aha, I see.” Su Dajiang slapped his thigh, his face lighting up. “So it all comes down to shared interests!”

“Ahem.” Jiang Miao coughed awkwardly.

Su Dajiang quickly quieted down and gestured for him to continue.

“Yes… After that, we decided to meet up on campus and found out we were from the same department.” Jiang Miao mixed some truth with fiction. “From then on, I’d often ask her out under the pretense of helping her gather material for her novel.”

“Heh!” Su Dajiang laughed. “You sure know how to play.”

Being praised like this by his future father-in-law, Jiang Miao almost burst out laughing.

If Senior Sister heard this, she would probably suffer social death on the spot.

“She doesn’t want anyone at school to know she’s writing these kinds of novels, so I’m the only one in real life who knows her secret,” Jiang Miao continued. “As time passed, we grew closer. At first, she did say she didn’t want to date, but later on, she agreed.”

“Good!” Su Dajiang beamed with joy. He didn’t expect his daughter to be won over like this.

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhang stood at the side like an audience member listening to a good story, surprised by all the twists and turns.

“Hey, Little Jiang.” Su Dajiang took out his phone. “How about we add each other on WeChat?

“We have quite the fate, don’t we?”

“I call you Little Jiang, and my name is Dajiang (Big Jiang). It’s like fate decided this for us!”

Jiang Miao smiled awkwardly, surprised at how gullible his future father-in-law was… hmm… or perhaps too easy to talk to. He took out his phone and added him on WeChat.

As soon as they added each other, a transfer notification popped up.

[Dajiang]: (Transferred 10,000 yuan)

Jiang Miao: “???”

“Wait, what…?” He instantly panicked. “Uncle, I’m not that kind of person!

“No matter how much you offer, I won’t break up with Senior Sister!

“And didn’t you just say you supported us being together?”

Su Dajiang looked at him strangely. “What are you talking about? This money is for my daughter.”

“Then why don’t you give it directly to Senior Sister.” Jiang Miao was baffled.

“I’ve tried, but she keeps sending it back.” Su Dajiang sighed in frustration. “So I’m giving it to you. Just make sure you spend it on Zhouzhou.

“Buy whatever you want, but send me the screenshots after every purchase. Keep track of everything, down to the last penny.

“This is your dating fund. You’re not allowed to spend it on anything else. I’ll be checking the screenshots.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jiang Miao: “…”

Looking at the serious Su Dajiang, Jiang Miao felt this entire situation was magical.

Uncle, are you really that well-off? Giving me ten thousand yuan so casually?

Aren’t you worried I’ll pocket it?

Getting fake screenshots from someone else would be easy…

Jiang Miao looked down at the 10,000 yuan transfer on WeChat, feeling incredibly awkward.

Most people got dating funds from their own parents, but when it came to him, how did it become secretly getting dating funds from his girlfriend’s dad?

Does this mean I’m officially allowed to date her?

This is too ridiculous!

“Why are you hesitating?” Su Dajiang became impatient and reached out to tap the accept button for him.

10,000 yuan received~

“Um… Uncle…” Jiang Miao nodded numbly. Receiving 10,000 yuan out of nowhere made him feel uneasy. He was worried that Su Dajiang would suddenly send him another 10,000. “Should I head out?”

“Alright. Zhouzhou might get suspicious if you stay too long.” Su Dajiang nodded, but then he called him back. “Hey, wait!”

Jiang Miao stopped in his tracks and turned back in confusion. “Uncle, is there anything else?”

“Ahem.” Su Dajiang stood up from his chair and discreetly glanced at the slippers on Jiang Miao’s feet. Then he took off his slippers and walked over. “Let’s see how tall you are. Take yours off too. Let’s compare.”

Jiang Miao naturally had no objections to this small, harmless request. He removed his slippers and stood next to Su Dajiang.

Su Dajiang was a rather sturdy man and used to be quite handsome in his younger years.

However, he now had a beer belly and was no longer as imposing as before.

But he was still around 1.8 meters, only slightly shorter than Jiang Miao.

After they finished comparing heights, Su Dajiang didn’t let him go and rummaged through some items for a scale. “Try this.”

“Oh.” Jiang Miao stepped on it obediently.

Su Dajiang quickly stopped him and said, “Take off the bathrobe before weighing yourself. We need accurate measurements.”

Jiang Miao didn’t suspect anything, thinking that Su Dajiang just wanted to check the physical condition of his prospective son-in-law.

But as soon as he took off the bathrobe and stepped onto the scale, he heard the door opening behind him.

When he turned around, Su Dajiang had already grabbed the bathrobe and ran away.

Jiang Miao: “???”

He stared in shock at the scene before him. Looking down at his bare body clad in only his underwear and then at the lone pair of gray slippers on the floor, he was in disbelief. What the hell?
