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

Half an hour later, a luxurious black Lexus van pulled up outside the Qin Group headquarters building.

The car door opened, and several bodyguards in black escorted a man out, making quite a show of force.

After just one glance, Ye Bai frowned and asked in confusion, "Is this the feng shui master?"

"...I don't know this person. Could it be that we guessed wrong before?"

Qin Wanqing was also dumbfounded. She shook her head, her beautiful eyes filled with disappointment.

The man surrounded by the crowd looked to be only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.

Wearing a Tang suit, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and wearing round-toed cloth shoes, he paced back and forth.

He was wearing sunglasses, his nostrils pointing to the sky, and he had an impressive air about him, but no matter how you looked at him, he seemed to have a carefree and irresponsible attitude.

Most importantly, she was clearly not the same person as the feng shui expert Zhao Chengfeng had introduced to her for arranging the study's feng shui.

"Wanqing, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Hu Fei, a direct disciple of Master Qi."

"Mr. Hu, this is my niece, Qin Wanqing..."

Qin Shengtu led the person over and gave an introduction.

In terms of both age and status, Qin Shengtu was far superior to Hu Fei.

However, they treated this master's disciple with utmost respect.

"Oh ho ho, the legendary Queen of Jingzhou! It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Hu Fei let out a strange cry, took off his sunglasses, and stretched out his hand, the burning passion in his eyes almost tangible.

Queen Qin's beauty was so stunning that anyone who saw her would be amazed, without exception.

"Hello, Mr. Hu."

Qin Wanqing nodded, but did not reach out.

She has always been a germaphobe and never has any physical contact with any man.

The only exception from childhood to adulthood is Ye Bai.

This guy touched my thigh!

But that's for treating an illness; there's nothing else we can do about it.

"Hehe, Miss Qin is indeed as proud as the rumors say."

Hu Fei awkwardly withdrew his hand, his face turning gloomy.

Although he was not from a wealthy family, he was quite famous in high society because of his master's extraordinary status.

Those socialites, wealthy ladies, and heiresses, if not offering themselves up as soon as they meet, are at least very enthusiastic.

This was the first time I'd ever encountered such a cold reception, so naturally I was extremely annoyed.

However, the Qin family was the head of the four major families in Jingzhou, and their strength far surpassed that of other powerful families, so Hu Fei had no choice but to endure it.

"Fifth Uncle, you said before that the feng shui of the Qin Group headquarters is of great importance, but now the master hasn't come, only a disciple has been sent. Don't you think this is too frivolous?"

Qin Wanqing ignored Hu Fei, who looked no different from a petty thug, and turned to Qin Shengtu to question him.

They used to look down on Ye Bai, but now they've brought in an even more unreliable guy. Qin Wanqing is increasingly impressed by the shamelessness of these Qin family executives.

"Wanqing, please calm down. Mr. Hu has already inherited six or seven tenths of Master Qi's true skills. In the art of feng shui, no one in the entire Jingzhou can match him."

Qin Shengtu smiled slightly, clearly having great confidence in Hu Fei.

"Alright, enough nonsense. Mr. Qin, is this kid the feng shui master your Qin family hired?"

Sensing the disdain in Qin Wanqing's words, Hu Fei became even angrier, but he couldn't lash out at the Qin family. In the end, he turned his gaze to Ye Bai.

He looked her up and down, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"Your master is Qi Bowen?"

Ye Bai, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, his expression somewhat strange.

"Not bad! You do have some knowledge, lad, and you've heard of my master's reputation."

"But since that's the case, you should know how high my master's status is in this circle."

"Now I'm giving you a chance. Kneel down and kowtow three times right now, and withdraw from the Feng Shui world. I can forgive your overestimation of your abilities today."

Hu Fei put his hands behind his back and snorted arrogantly.

His master, Qi Bowen, was a leading figure in the entire Feng Shui community of Jingzhou.

Even looking at the entire Jiangdong region, it is one of the top-tier entities.

Moreover, Qi Bowen was not only a feng shui master; his true origins were even more mysterious and extraordinary.

Although Hu Fei was not qualified to know those secrets, it was enough for him to look down on any of his local colleagues in Jingzhou.

"How dare you! You're just a disciple of a mere feng shui master, yet you dare to make my Qin Wanqing's man kneel down and apologize to you? Who gave you the audacity?"

Before Ye Bai could even speak, Qin Wanqing flew into a rage, her pretty face covered in frost.

She may look down on Ye Bai, and even occasionally belittle and despise him, but she will never allow anyone to humiliate her!

In particular, this Hu Fei isn't even a member of the Qin family!

"Your man? Miss Qin is already married? Could this man be some wealthy young master?"

Hu Fei was taken aback at first, then suddenly opened his eyes wide, gasped, and looked at Ye Bai with a serious expression.

He and his master Qi Bowen had not been in Jingzhou for some time and had just returned, so they were naturally unaware of the marriage alliance between the Qin and Ye families.

In Hu Fei's mind, someone who could marry the Queen of Qin could not possibly be an ordinary person.

At the very least, only a young master from a prestigious family in Jingzhou would be eligible!

The thought that his attitude just now might have offended such a person sent a chill down Hu Fei's spine.

He did indeed gain respect in high society circles thanks to his master's reputation.

However, this respect is contingent on not offending the truly wealthy scions.

If he really angers one of them, he won't be able to bear the consequences either.

Upon realizing this, Hu Fei instantly suppressed his previous arrogance and instead looked at Ye Bai with a forced smile, saying, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were the son-in-law of the Qin family. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me..."

At this moment, Hu Fei's tone was full of flattery, perfectly demonstrating his transformation from arrogance to obsequiousness.

There's no way around it; even the most skilled feng shui master serves the powerful and wealthy.

Hu Fei doesn't care about ordinary rich people, but he really can't afford to offend the powerful and wealthy.

Those who navigate the underworld are adept at the skill of being flexible and adaptable, and at judging people based on their status.

As for face... it means nothing in the face of money and life.

"Putting everything else aside, your ability to change faces is truly a testament to Old Qi's skills..."

Ye Bai's lips twitched slightly. He had to admit that the subtle influence between master and disciple often surpassed that between father and son.

This is especially evident when you encounter an unscrupulous master.

"Young master, you still know my master?"

Hu Fei's eyes lit up, and he instantly realized that this was a good opportunity to get closer to him.

Before Ye Bai could answer, a cold snort came from the side.

"He's no big shot among the rich and powerful! He's just an adopted son the Ye family picked up from an orphanage. How could he possibly know your master!"

However, Qin Shengtu couldn't stand it any longer and revealed Ye Bai's identity.
