After the Protagonist Ascended, I Set My Eyes on His Woman - Chapter 3:

Chapter 3: Campus Belle Chen Lanyi

A Wuling minivan was parked at the east gate of the university. Hou Zi was driving, while Li Wanji sat in the back seat.

After about two and a half minutes, a beautiful girl in a long white dress with flowing black hair slowly walked out. Her skin was fair, her features delicate, and her bright eyes exuded a touching charm.

“Lanyi,” a female student approached and greeted her.

“Senior Sister Yueyue,” Chen Lanyi smiled. The dimples at the corners of her lips appeared faintly—sweet and beautiful.

“Campus belle, I like you!” A male student suddenly knelt in front of her holding a bouquet of flowers.

“Sorry, I don’t like you.”

Chen Lanyi’s sweet smile faded instantly as she rejected him coldly.

“Alright then…” The boy left dejectedly.

Chen Lanyi shook her head. Just today, at least a dozen people had confessed to her. Since the start of the semester, she had received enough love letters to weigh a ton.

“Chen Lanyi, my boss wants to see you.”

Hong Yue approached her and said.

“I don’t know you,” Chen Lanyi’s bright eyes instantly became wary.

“Our boss is right there in the car. Also, he said he was an old acquaintance of your brother,” Hong Yue explained.

“My brother’s old acquaintance?” A flicker of doubt appeared in Chen Lanyi’s eyes.

She followed Hong Yue over to the minivan.

“Get in,” Li Wanji opened the car door.

But Chen Lanyi refused to get in. “Who exactly are you?”

“You may not know me, but I am indeed an old acquaintance of your brother,” Li Wanji smiled. Then he snapped his fingers—pa!—a small flame danced at his fingertips out of thin air.

“You’re a cultivator!” Chen Lanyi’s heart trembled.

“To be precise, I’m already in the Grandmaster Realm,” Li Wanji said with a slight smile. Looking at her exquisite face, he was secretly amazed. She was unbelievably beautiful. He especially liked tender, flawless young girls like her.

Chen Lanyi didn’t speak. She knew that before her brother ascended, he had been at the Grandmaster level!

“Now that your brother has ascended, no one in the mortal world can stop me.”

“You either get in willingly, or I’ll help you get in myself,” Li Wanji said with a threatening tone.

Chen Lanyi hesitated for a moment, then lifted her leg while pressing down her dress and stepped into the minivan.

“Who are you, and what do you want?” Sitting beside him, she held her dress cautiously and asked.

Li Wanji looked down at her slender legs. Her snowy skin gleamed, her calves were smooth and round, with beautiful lines—he couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

“My name is Li Wanji.”

“What?!” Upon hearing the name, Chen Lanyi’s stunning face revealed a look of disbelief.

“You… you’re the one my brother…”

She couldn’t believe that the man who had been crippled—his limbs broken—had returned intact. And with Grandmaster-level cultivation?

“That’s right. Your brother was arrogant and tyrannical. All I did was accidentally touch Gu Qingning’s thigh, and he broke all my limbs, killed my father, and took all the Li family’s assets!”

The more Li Wanji spoke, the more emotional he became. In the end, he slammed his palm down on her thigh with a loud slap.

“So tell me, should I take revenge?” Li Wanji’s eyes turned blood-red as he stared at her flawless profile.

Chen Lanyi was frightened. Her delicate body trembled slightly.

“Speak!” Li Wanji fiercely squeezed her thigh.

“Ah!” Chen Lanyi cried out in pain. “I… I don’t know…”

“You don’t know?” Li Wanji reached out and arrogantly lifted her delicate chin, turning her face toward him. He stared into her dark, bright eyes.

“Speak. I want to hear your opinion.”

Chen Lanyi looked at him timidly. “Would you even listen to me if I told you?”

“What, trying to train me like a dog?” Li Wanji sneered.

“What do you mean ‘train’…?” Chen Lanyi didn’t understand.

“Just say it,” Li Wanji said.

“This is between you and my brother. It has nothing to do with me… Please, let me go,” Chen Lanyi whispered, her voice lacking confidence.

“Hah… did your brother let my family go? Did he spare my clan?” Li Wanji mocked.

“If you blindly seek revenge, aren’t you just becoming like him? If you hate him, do you have to become him too?” Chen Lanyi tried to reason with him.

“So, you also think your brother is worse than a dog?” Li Wanji gave a satisfied smile.

“I didn’t say that,” Chen Lanyi denied.

“Then tell me, what kind of person is Chen Fan in your eyes? Speak honestly!” Li Wanji pressed on.

“My brother is a hero—a great hero!” Chen Lanyi said firmly.

“Very good. Then I’ll also be a great hero. Now that I have power, I’ll start killing, and I’ll begin with Chen Fan’s women. What do you think?” Li Wanji’s expression turned dark and vicious.

Terrified by his words, Chen Lanyi was now certain—this man was truly evil!

“No!” she pleaded. “Please, don’t hurt the sisters-in-law…”

“I can agree to that. As long as you’re with me, I won’t kill them.” Li Wanji leaned in closer, taking a deep breath. “Smells amazing. No wonder you’re such a top-tier beauty.”

He could tell—this was her natural virgin scent, not perfume.

“Can I… can I think about it?” Chen Lanyi hadn’t expected him to be this bold. Wasn’t he afraid of her brother at all?

Her brother was an ascended cultivator!

“I’ll give you three minutes. If you say no after that, I’ll go kill the sisters-in-law,” Li Wanji said, releasing her chin and removing his hand from her thigh. He even brought it to his nose and sniffed it.

“Aren’t you afraid of my brother coming back?” Chen Lanyi tried to invoke fear with her brother’s name.

“Your useless brother has ascended and won’t be returning anytime soon. And even if he does, so what? You think I’m afraid of him?” Li Wanji smirked in disdain.

Chen Fan had returned after eight years, and he was only at the late Foundation Establishment Realm. But now, Li Wanji had cheats—he had no reason to fear him.

Chen Lanyi fell silent in despair.

“Three minutes are up,” Li Wanji reminded her.

Her body trembled. Tears began streaming down her face. She sobbed, “You bastard… despicable and shameless… when my brother comes back, you’re dead!”

Li Wanji knew she had tacitly agreed.

Could she even dare refuse?

“Hou Zi, drive. Head to Jiangbin Villa.”

“Got it, Boss.” Hou Zi started the engine and headed toward the Jiangbin Villa area.

Villa No. 1 was Chen Lanyi’s home. She lived there with Bai Ya, but Bai Ya was currently away on vacation.

They were stopped by security at the entrance, but once Chen Lanyi stepped out, they were allowed to pass.

They entered Villa No. 1.

It was a luxurious three-story villa. It used to be Chen Fan’s residence. The backyard even had a spiritual pool, which Chen Lanyi usually used for bathing.

“From now on, this is my home.”

Li Wanji smiled. “Hou Zi, go pick up my sister.”

“Let’s go upstairs.”

With a casual command, he grabbed Chen Lanyi’s delicate hand and led her upstairs.

“I can walk by myself,” Chen Lanyi pulled her hand away.

Li Wanji didn’t say anything.

He wasn’t in a rush.

He had the whole day to slowly enjoy it.

Upon entering her bedroom, Li Wanji lay directly on her bed and looked at her as she stood there stiffly.

“Go take a shower.”
