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

After eating and drinking his fill, and even taking the opportunity to give the annoying Director Zhao a good dressing down, Ye Bai thoroughly enjoyed his meal.

Since Old Madam Qin had finished her medicine, and Ye Bai had nothing to do when he returned in the afternoon, he simply stayed at the Qin Group headquarters with Shen Lu.

With the little girl acting as his guide, Ye Bai wandered around.

Now he is, after all, the son-in-law of the Qin family and the husband of Queen Qin. Even if he has no interest in understanding the business of the Qin Group, he still can't be too unfamiliar with this place.

If I ever got lost, that would be a huge joke.

"This is Fifth Master Qin's office, and that's Sixth Master Qin's..."

As Shen Lu walked, she introduced things to Ye Bai.

The "Qin Wu and Qin Liu" she mentioned were naturally Qin Shengtu and Qin Shengfeng.

Most of these high-ranking members of the Qin family work for the Qin Group, including Qin Yuezhu and Zhao Jianqiang.

However, Qin Yuemei and Tian Yurou are somewhat special, as neither of them works at the Qin Group.

It is said that this is because of the "uncle" he has never met, but Ye Bai has no interest in this family and is too lazy to pay attention to them.

Birds of a feather flock together. Judging from Qin Yuemei and Tian Yurou's character, Qin's eldest son-in-law is probably not a good person either.

Does Qin Xiuzhao work here?

Ye Bai, Qin Shengtu, and Qin Shengfeng had nothing to talk about, so naturally they didn't go over to say hello.

After walking for a while, he suddenly remembered the young master of the third branch of the Qin family who had colluded with the black-robed Taoist priest, the book thief from not long ago.

"Working here, are you planning to go and teach him a lesson, son-in-law?"

Shen Lu instantly became excited and began rubbing her hands together, looking eager to try.

This little girl may seem cute and innocent on the surface, but deep down she's a little violent maniac.

Because he practiced martial arts from a young age, he developed a personality that loved to fight and be brave.

In addition, Qin Wanqing was very strict with him, so he usually had to behave himself and dared not fight with others. Now that he heard there was a chance to fight, he naturally couldn't hold back.

As for Qin Xiuzhao's identity, she subconsciously chose to ignore it.

Anyway, with the son-in-law around, even if the sky falls, there's a tall guy to hold it up, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

"Teach you a lesson, my foot! You need to be gentler from now on, don't be like your young lady, always acting like a tigress."

Ye Bai ruffled Shen Lu's hair, feeling both amused and exasperated.

"...So you like gentle women, son-in-law. I'll remember that."

Shen Lu suddenly realized, and then began to use her small brain to try to recall which of the women who had been in contact with her son-in-law met this condition.

She and the young lady are definitely not even worth considering; they don't fall into the category of gentleness.

Although in her eyes, the young lady was good in every way, but her temper was indeed a bit too much.

Han Mengmeng?

That little imp seemed to have no temper, but she didn't seem to be gentle either. She always gave people a strange feeling, rather cold and distant.

So it was the great demon Zhu Daji?

That woman certainly knew how to use gentleness to seduce men, but upon closer reflection, Zhu Daji's most prominent characteristic was her flirtatiousness, which seemed somewhat distant from gentleness.

Could it be... a youthful appearance?

Shen Lu was startled, her big eyes instantly filled with vigilance.

She suddenly realized that the beautiful host seemed to fit the definition of gentleness in every way!

Even when speaking, they speak softly and never shout.

Oh no, the son-in-law is really captivated by Tong Yan's youthful appearance. Is he about to fall for someone else?

Miss, your husband is about to be stolen away by your best friend!

Shen Lu began to let her thoughts wander, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was seriously wrong.

"...Why are you muttering and gritting your teeth like that?"

Seeing the little girl standing there motionless, her expression constantly changing, Ye Bai asked with some curiosity.

As a person with a normal mind, he really couldn't guess what a brainless person would be thinking.

But one thing is certain: they are definitely not like normal people.

"Ah...it's nothing, it's nothing."

Shen Lu finally came to her senses and quickly continued leading the way.

But at the same time, I've also made up my mind that I must remind the young lady.

If it's just that the son-in-law likes the youthful-looking type, that's fine, since the decision-making power in these matters usually lies with the woman.

Judging from what happened at the TV station today, Tong Yan clearly has feelings for her son-in-law, which is troublesome.

"Dry wood and raging fire, an affair blossoms into adultery, infidelity occurs, and she is kicked out of her home..."

As Shen Lu led the way, she kept muttering to herself, like she was chanting a sutra.

Ye Bai was puzzled, but too lazy to ask.

Having stayed by Qin Wanqing's side all this time, he caught her habit of having occasional fits of madness, which was originally quite normal.

Soon, Shen Lu led Ye Bai to Qin Xiuzhao's office on the ninth floor.

This young master of the Qin family does not hold a high position in the Qin Group; he is merely a deputy manager of a department.

This is the reality for the vast majority of Qin family members; after graduation, they enter the Qin Group and are given a deputy manager position.

As for whether you can climb up, and how high you can climb, that depends on your own ability.

The reason we don't give them department heads is because they lack both ability and experience.

But their identities are extraordinary, and they are all arrogant and haughty, making it harder than killing them to get them to start as ordinary employees.

Throughout the history of the Qin Group, there has only been one member of the Qin family who started from the very bottom.

That was Qin Wanqing.

He took one step at a time and eventually soared to great heights, becoming the president of the Qin Group!

This legendary experience is like a myth.

The reason she was later honored as the "Queen of Jingzhou" is also related to this.

Even with Qin Wanqing's outstanding achievements as a precedent, the other members of the Qin family still showed no interest in lowering their standards.

Qin Xiuzhao has only been the deputy manager of the department for about half a year, but he is already close to becoming the head of the department.

From this perspective, the young master of the third branch of the Qin family is quite capable.

Ye Bai stepped forward and knocked on the door, but after waiting for a while, no one answered.

This puzzled him, and he instinctively twisted the doorknob.

Unexpectedly, the door was opened directly.

"Is Young Master Xiu Zhao still taking a nap? That shouldn't be the case; everyone should be starting work at this hour..."

Shen Lu glanced at the time on her watch, looking puzzled.

"You'll find out once you go in and take a look."

Ye Bai was too lazy to waste brain cells on such a simple matter, so he went straight inside.

Since the office door wasn't locked, it was perfectly acceptable to enter; that's common sense.

The Qin Group's offices are not particularly luxurious, but they are all quite spacious.

It even has a living room, bedroom, and bathroom.

The outer living room serves as an office and reception area, while the inner area contains a bedroom and a bathroom, providing a place for temporary rest or use when working overtime.

However, Shen Lu searched around but couldn't find any trace of Qin Xiuzhao.

Ye Bai, however, after looking around, suddenly focused his gaze on Qin Xiuzhao's desk, his eyes narrowing slightly.

It was a photograph with only one person in it.

A very pretty girl.

She wore a white dress, ethereal and otherworldly, like a fairy who didn't eat the food of mortals.

Han Mengmeng.
