After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

As soon as Ye Bai left, Ye Xuanyuan walked in and looked at Yang Fenglan with an expectant expression, asking, "Mom, how did your talk with him go?"

Yang Fenglan shook her head and said helplessly, "It's not good. It seems very difficult to get Xiaobai to voluntarily break off the engagement. His relationship with Wanqing seems to be quite good..."

She had already said everything she needed to say; she couldn't force Ye Bai to break off the engagement, as that would only backfire.

"That shameless bastard! I'll talk to him myself!"

Ye Xuanyuan snorted angrily, his hatred for Ye Bai growing to its extreme.

In his view, everything Ye Bai had was a gift from the Ye family.

And now, all he's asked to do is give up a woman, yet he's making such a fuss and making excuses. He's an ungrateful wretch!

At this moment, Ye Bai was in his room, checking if there was anything he had forgotten.

He figured he wouldn't be coming back this time, so he naturally took everything he could with him.

"Ye Bai, I need to talk to you about something."

Ye Xuanyuan walked in, his face grim.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should also be about Wanqing."

Ye Bai nodded, a slight smirk playing on his lips.

Although he had only lived in the Ye family for a short time, he already knew their temperaments and personalities very well.

"I want you to leave Qin Wanqing. Name your price."

Ye Xuanyuan had no interest in wasting words with Ye Bai and went straight to the point.

From Ye Bai's brand-new attire, he could tell that the other party had indeed gained considerable benefits after becoming the Qin family's son-in-law, and seemed to enjoy them quite a bit.

That's quite normal. As a member of the Ye family, Ye Xuanyuan knows better than anyone how the Ye family has treated Ye Bai over the years.

He was nominally an adopted son, but in reality, he was no different from a servant.

Clothing, food, housing, and transportation are all at the bare minimum standard.

Such a destitute person, who suddenly latched onto the coattails of a rich man, was naturally reluctant to let go.

Since that's the case, Ye Xuanyuan felt he could simply use money to force Ye Bai out of the Qin family.

To his surprise, Ye Bai shook his head decisively upon hearing this.

"Here's two million; once you leave Wanqing, it's yours."

Ye Xuanyuan snorted coldly in displeasure, took out a bank card and slammed it on the old wooden table next to him.

Originally, he planned to give Ye Bai at most a few hundred thousand.

However, he was a discerning person and could tell the price of Ye Bai's new outfit, so he had no choice but to raise the price.

However, as a young master from a wealthy family, two million is nothing to him.

"Brother, you're really generous."

Ye Bai picked up the bank card, glanced at it, then threw it into the trash can, shaking his head with a mocking smile.

He still clearly remembers when he first came to the Ye family, he saw children eating ice cream on the street and was extremely envious.

So he begged Ye Xuanyuan to buy him one to eat too.

Ye Xuanyuan did not refuse and actually went to the store and bought two.

But it wasn't given to Xiao Yebai.

He ate one himself and threw the other in the trash.

From that day on, Ye Bai never asked the Ye family for a single penny or anything else.

Now, for the sake of a woman, Ye Xuanyuan has spent two million, which is indeed generous and befits his status as a young master from a wealthy family.

Unfortunately, Ye Bai is no longer the orphan who couldn't even afford ice cream back then.

"Ye Bai, what do you mean? You've only just entered the Qin family and you're already so arrogant?"

Ye Xuanyuan's face turned ashen; he felt that Ye Bai's actions were a tremendous humiliation to him.

Two million is no small sum of money; are you just going to throw it in the trash like that?

"Brother, don't waste your time. From the moment the Ye family asked me to arrange a marriage between you and the Qin family, Wanqing has nothing to do with you anymore."

"If you continue to entangle yourself, it will be bad news for both you and the Ye family. It may even bring disaster upon yourself."

After thinking for a moment, Ye Bai still offered a word of advice.

"You dare threaten my Ye family? Ye Bai, you ingrate, have you lost all your conscience?"

"Without the Ye family, would you be where you are today?"

Ye Xuanyuan gritted his teeth, his eyes practically spitting fire.

Ye Bai was speechless and could only choose to remain silent in the end.

He has already given the necessary reminders, and he has done more than enough.

As for what happens to the Ye family in the future, it is no longer his concern.

"Hehe, I get it, you think the money isn't enough!"

Seeing that Ye Bai remained silent, Ye Xuanyuan naturally assumed that the other party knew he was in the wrong, so he once again coldly pulled out a bank card.

"Here's five million. That should be enough to appease a country bumpkin like you who's been terrified of poverty for so long, right?"

"But I must remind you, one should know contentment. Greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant; such people usually don't end well!"

Ye Bai didn't even bother to look at the bank card this time. While picking up his box of books, he said indifferently, "You should keep this money to do good deeds and try to avoid disaster by losing money. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer a bloody disaster within three days."

"You dare to curse me?" Ye Xuanyuan felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.

Ye Bai shook his head: "Believe it or not, it's up to you."

He wasn't trying to scare people on purpose, but judging from Ye Xuanyuan's appearance, he was clearly plagued by bad luck and impending calamity.

"Ye Bai! If you dare not agree to my conditions, don't even think about leaving this room!"

Enraged, Ye Xuanyuan roared and pounced on Ye Bai.

Before Ye Bai was sent to the mountains, he often beat and scolded him.

However, due to habit, I still want to teach the other person a lesson at the slightest disagreement.

But he forgot the most crucial point: Ye Bai of today is no longer the same as before.

With a slight turn of his body, Ye Bai dodged Ye Xuanyuan's attack.

Because of the force of the impact and not paying attention to his footing, Ye Xuanyuan only felt that he tripped over something, and his entire body instantly lost control, and his face made intimate contact with the ground.

boom!

The ground of the Ye family villa was paved with hard bluestone, so the result of this collision was predictable.

Ye Xuanyuan let out a shrill scream. His face was covered in blood, his nose was broken, and he even lost half of his front tooth!

"...Look, look, I warned you of a bloody disaster, why didn't you believe me!"

Ye Bai sighed helplessly, quickly helped him up, and then called the butler to take the young master of the Ye family to the hospital to treat his injuries.

Afterwards, the Qin family driver helped Ye Bai load the things into the car, and Ye Bai said goodbye to Qin Wanqing and Yang Fenglan before leaving.

Because Ye Xuanyuan was injured unexpectedly, and there was even a possibility that he would be disfigured, Yang Fenglan did not try to persuade him to stay this time.

"I didn't realize you were so ruthless!"

In the car, Qin Wanqing turned to look at Ye Bai with a strange expression.

"What do you mean?"

Ye Bai began to play dumb.

"Stop pretending, I saw it all. If you hadn't kicked him, Ye Xuanyuan wouldn't have fallen so badly."

Qin Wanqing snorted coldly and exposed the heartless sixth brother's actions on the spot.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not that kind of person. At most, I just didn't have time to pull my foot back..."

Ye Bai shook his head, firmly denying it.
