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

Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing had actually arrived long ago, but to their dismay, they couldn't squeeze in at all.

Not a single neighbor stood up for the Shen sisters, but a huge crowd of onlookers gathered, forming a dense, impenetrable barrier.

So Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing could only move in little by little until they finally managed to squeeze out a gap.

Qin Wanqing did not squeeze in with them. This female CEO had always been a germaphobe and hated it when others touched her body, especially strangers.

Moreover, she felt that Ye Bai could handle this small matter on his own.

If he can't solve it, then it just means that this guy is all talk and no action, and the things he's accomplished are just lucky stumbles.

"I came to check on you because you hadn't made any noise."

Ye Bai walked up to Shen Lu and patted the little girl's head with a smile.

Strangely enough, even though he hadn't spent much time with Shen Lu, Ye Bai not only didn't dislike this dim-witted little follower, but actually grew to like her more and more, as if he had gained a little sister.

People who lack family affection crave it more, and Ye Bai, an orphan, is no exception.

Unfortunately, he didn't feel it in the Ye family, but he felt it more and more after coming to the Qin family.

There's a grandma, a younger sister, and a stingy wife who's always teasing me...

Hmm, if you cross out the last line, it feels pretty good.

"I'm sorry to have worried you, son-in-law..."

Shen Lu's eyes reddened; she was clearly moved.

"Hehe, no wonder the two little girls are so confident, it turns out they have helpers."

Chen Daguang walked up, looked Ye Bai up and down a few times, and then his expression turned rather ugly.

Ye Bai, who only has five sets of clothes, naturally wears the same one every day: that high-end Armani suit.

On her wrist was a Patek Philippe watch worth millions.

Although Chen Daguang only lived at the bottom of society, he had at least studied some knowledge about high-end brands.

It wasn't because he wanted to study hard and improve himself, but because being in society is a high-risk profession; one wrong move and you could easily run into someone you can't afford to mess with.

Having that kind of knowledge can help mitigate these risks to some extent.

As for why it cannot be completely avoided, it's because counterfeit goods are rampant now, and many of them are not much different from the real thing.

Ye Bai's outfit was enough to make one's heart tremble at first glance.

As for whether it was real or fake, Chen Daguang couldn't tell for the time being.

That's why he stopped his men from making any further rash moves.

"We're family, so it's understandable that we're worried."

Ye Bai smiled slightly, then turned to look at Chen Daguang and said calmly, "Do the two of them owe you money, or do their fathers owe you money?"

"Brother, what do you mean by that?" Chen Daguang's heart skipped a beat, but he still managed to suppress his anger.

After staring at him for a long time, he still couldn't tell whether the young man in front of him was a pretentious show-off who liked fake designer brands or a genuine rich kid.

If it's the former, then there's no need to hold back; just give him a good beating and let him know what kind of person Brother Guang from District 8 is.

But if it's the latter, then we're in big trouble.

He was quite self-aware; to ordinary people, he was Brother Guang, or even Grandpa Guang. But in front of truly wealthy and powerful people, he might not even have the right to be a grandson.

More importantly, everyone says that the little girl named Shen Lu has been adopted by a rich family. Could it be that the person who came is from that family?

"Every wrong has its source, every debt its debtor. Whoever owes you money, go find them. What era are we living in? Still playing the old trick of children paying for their parents' debts?"

"Alright, I've taken him away. If you don't want to go to the police station for questioning, then go find whoever you want to talk to."

Ye Bai was too lazy to waste words with such a thug, and had no interest in teaching him a lesson.

If word got out that this big shot had taken action against a few petty thugs, he would probably become the laughingstock of the entire Xuanmen sect in no time.

Therefore, threatening to call the police to scare the other party is the easiest solution.

Anyway, Ye Bai had no interest in getting involved in Shen Lu's father's messy affairs. How much money the other party owed, and whether he would pay it back or not, was none of his business.

As long as Shen Lu isn't bullied, these guys can do whatever they want.

He is indeed the leader of the Xuanmen sect, but he is not a chivalrous hero who roams the martial arts world.

To Ye Bai's surprise, Chen Daguang was not frightened by his words; instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"So it was all a charade. I almost believed it myself. I knew it! A real rich young master wouldn't show up in a godforsaken place like this, without even a bodyguard!"

"Tell me, how much did this little girl pay you to act? I have to say, your acting is really good, I almost fucking believed her!"

Chen Daguang spat fiercely, already equating Ye Bai with a pretentious person who liked counterfeit goods.

The real way a young master makes his entrance is by first slapping him twice across the face, and then leaving with a threat like, "If you don't behave, I'll kill your whole family."

Threatening people with the police is something only powerless ordinary people like to do.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Chen Daguang's energetic appearance, Ye Bai was somewhat bewildered.

When did he ever say he was a rich young master? And what's with this "hired to act" nonsense?

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't pay, you can't take him away. If you keep nagging, believe me, I'll bleed you dry first."

Chen Daguang let out a sinister laugh and pulled a folding dagger from his pocket.

It gleamed with a cold light and had a deep blood groove on it, clearly a murder weapon.

Upon seeing this, the onlookers exclaimed in surprise and began to retreat quickly, thus giving up nearly twice the space inside.

"Uncle..."

Upon seeing this, Shen Lu's pretty face immediately changed, and she instinctively rushed over to stand in front of Ye Bai.

Shen Zhu let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.

With such a small amount of courage, I don't know who gave her the audacity to try and extort Ye Bai and Shen Lu.

"It's alright, go check on Shen Zhu first."

Ye Bai turned and smiled at Shen Lu, then looked at Chen Daguang with a strange expression and said, "Did I hear that right? You're going to bleed me?"

"I'll count to three. If you don't get lost, I'll show you why flowers bloom..."

Chen Daguang raised three fingers, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious.

Snapped!

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Bai had already swiftly raised his hand and slapped Chen Daguang across the face!

With a crisp sound, Chen Daguang let out a scream as he was sent flying several meters away.

Blood splattered as teeth flew everywhere, half of his face was split open, a bloody mess, and he immediately lost consciousness!

"You're really giving me a hard time, daring to bleed me. I have reason to suspect you're calling me that kind of thing."

Ye Bai cursed under his breath. Chen Daguang's words reminded him of a Spring Festival Gala skit he had watched a few days ago.

There's a line in that movie that goes something like, "Bleed the turtle..."
