The Villain Took Down the Female Lead from the Very Start - Chapter 6:

Chapter 6: The Daily Life of the Crown Prince of Jiangzhou

Qingteng Villa spanned roughly 100,000 square meters. It was a birthday gift from Jiang Che’s mother, Qin Mengxuan, for his eighteenth birthday.

The villa was located on the outskirts of Linjiang City, where birds chirped and flowers bloomed. The peaceful and refreshing environment featured standalone villas, swimming pools, gardens, and woods.

Behind the estate, there was even a shooting range for training, a horse ranch, a golf course, and more—it truly had everything one could want.

Back when the site was chosen, Qin Mengxuan had spent 10 billion yuan to construct Qingteng Villa. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it the most expensive, highest-standard, and most luxurious villa in all of Linjiang City.

Spending 10 billion yuan just for a villa—this was something even the six major families wouldn’t dare to attempt. It was outrageous and excessively extravagant.

But as the business queen who controlled the Xingqiong Group valued at trillions, Qin Mengxuan didn’t care about a mere 10 billion yuan.

After all, she gave Jiang Che and Jiang Wantang each 1 billion yuan in monthly pocket money.

So, 10 billion yuan was just a year’s worth of allowance for the two siblings.

In her words, “What’s the point of building such a massive company if not to let my children enjoy life? Why leave money lying around unused?”

The Xingqiong Group was the leading conglomerate in Jiangzhou Province and ranked among the top three even across Dragon Nation.

Its industries spanned real estate, education, entertainment and film, electronics, technology, new energy, hotel chains, hospitals, gaming, and more.

It could be said that every citizen of Linjiang City, from birth to death, was inseparable from Xingqiong Group.

Xingqiong Group alone supported 70% of Linjiang City’s GDP.

After entering university, Jiang Che moved out of the Jiang Family residence and settled permanently at Qingteng Villa.

Besides Jiang Che, over a hundred maids lived there to care for his daily life.

As for Lin Qiang and the other bodyguards, along with the estate’s security team, they lived in the outer ring of villas and were responsible for protection duties.

…

“Young Master…”

“Greetings, Young Master…”

As Jiang Che walked, the maids he passed greeted him with enthusiasm and admiration.

Some of the bolder young maids deliberately bent forward to show off their alluring curves and flirted with Jiang Che using seductive glances.

Every one of these maids was exceptionally beautiful. In the outside world, each would be considered a goddess. They had been meticulously selected through strict layers of screening before being brought in.

Their monthly salary started at 100,000 yuan, with full benefits, housing and meals provided, and a year-end bonus of 500,000 yuan.

Their daily tasks included watering flowers, tending to fish, and light cleaning—an extremely leisurely job.

If one happened to catch Jiang Che’s eye, they could instantly transcend social class and become a phoenix perched high.

As a result, countless women applied every year to become maids at Qingteng Villa.

Once inside the villa, Jiang Che instructed the maids to arrange Xiao Yi’s room right next to his own.

When dinner was ready, Jiang Che brought Xiao Yi directly to the dining table.

“Why aren’t you eating?”

“Do you not like the food?”

Seeing Xiao Yi standing quietly in front of him without making a move, Jiang Che raised his brows and asked curiously.

By all logic, someone like Xiao Yi shouldn’t be picky about food.

After all, as a member of an Assassin Organization, she was used to eating whatever was available while on Assassination Missions. Just having a full meal was a luxury.

Xiao Yi gently shook her head. A ripple passed through her violet pupils as she glanced at the maids standing nearby.

“You’re not like them…”

“You are my Personal Bodyguard, so of course you’re qualified to eat with me…”

“I’m ordering you to eat now.”

Jiang Che understood the meaning in Xiao Yi’s eyes and gave a direct order.

Though Xiao Yi was nominally just a subordinate—a Personal Bodyguard—Jiang Che didn’t view her as merely a bodyguard.

Xiao Yi’s looks were exceptional, and she was loyal to him. Naturally, Jiang Che had his own thoughts—he wanted to make this delicate little girl his.

But Xiao Yi had only just arrived at Qingteng Villa today.

There was plenty of time. He wasn’t in a rush.

Even though the System had only awakened yesterday, Jiang Che’s mindset had already undergone a drastic change.

In the past, his goal was the political stage, to climb to the top like his father.

Now, he just wanted to live freely as the Crown Prince of Jiangzhou—suppressing the Sons of Destiny, conquering all kinds of stunning female leads, and enjoying a luxurious life.

When Jiang Che gave the command, Xiao Yi didn’t hesitate.

She sat down immediately, picked up her chopsticks, and began stuffing rice into her mouth.

Her cheeks puffed up like a cute little hamster.

Xiao Yi was from the West and had rarely used chopsticks before. She was more accustomed to using forks and knives while eating.

As a result, her movements were a bit clumsy, and grains of rice stuck to the corners of her mouth.

“Don’t just eat rice—eat some vegetables too…”

Seeing her like that, Jiang Che couldn’t help but laugh. He gave a subtle glance to the maid beside him.

The maid instantly understood. She picked up a napkin and gently wiped the rice from Xiao Yi’s mouth, her gaze filled with undisguised envy.

These maids all had their own staff meals, but none had ever eaten at the same table as the Young Master.

This little girl in purple had only just arrived, yet she was already sitting with the Young Master. Even with just a glance, anyone could guess their relationship wasn’t ordinary.

Following Jiang Che’s words, Xiao Yi started adding vegetables to her bowl, eating with disciplined precision and no expression on her face—like she was executing a mission.

Seeing this, Jiang Che helplessly shook his head.

Xiao Yi’s cold personality clearly couldn’t be changed overnight, and he didn’t expect too much either.

…

After dinner, Jiang Che returned to his room.

After washing up, he relaxed on his ten-meter-wide bed and played on his phone.

He chatted with Liu Mengxi for a while before quickly falling asleep.

The next morning.

After washing up and getting dressed, Jiang Che opened the door.

Just as he was about to head downstairs for breakfast, he saw a slender figure in purple standing at the doorway—Xiao Yi.

“You stayed up all night guarding this spot?”

Noticing the obvious dark circles under her eyes, Jiang Che raised his brows and asked in surprise.

Xiao Yi silently nodded, still expressionless.

In her heart, she already viewed Jiang Che as her master, so naturally, it was her duty to protect his safety.

Even though she knew nothing would likely happen inside Qingteng Villa, she had still guarded his door throughout the night.

“You…”

Jiang Che chuckled and shook his head, a hint of emotion flickering in his heart as he reached out and patted Xiao Yi’s head.

Xiao Yi’s body tensed slightly. A hint of awkwardness flashed across her face, but she didn’t resist his touch.

Like a docile kitten, her head gently rubbed against Jiang Che’s palm.

But clearly, she had no experience in playful banter or affection. Her movements looked rather clumsy.

“Alright then, come downstairs with me for breakfast, and after that, get some proper rest…”

“I’m heading out later. You don’t need to come with me today…”

Jiang Che withdrew his hand and smiled lightly.

Xiao Yi shook her head, reached out, and held onto the corner of Jiang Che’s shirt. Her meaning was clear.

“This is an order.”

“And I’m just going home—there’s no danger.”

Jiang Che naturally understood what Xiao Yi was concerned about, so he patiently explained.
