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

"The last place Qin Xiuzhao was seen was at the Han family's villa, and no one has seen him since. My third uncle and aunt called me today; they're rushing back to China..."

Qin Wanqing shook her head helplessly.

Before she became the president of the Qin Group, the younger generation of the Qin family had a pretty good relationship.

The family only has one or two children, who are cousins, and they are still very close in terms of blood ties.

They often played together, and he would always follow behind Qin Wanqing, calling her "sister" incessantly.

However, as they grew up, under the influence of their parents' teachings and driven by self-interest, the originally pure family affection had become distorted.

Qin Wanqing, who is in charge of the Qin Group, is no longer regarded by them as their older sister, but rather as their biggest rival in the face of their rise to power!

Over time, the feelings naturally faded.

Therefore, Qin Wanqing didn't really care whether Qin Xiuzhao was missing or not.

She cared more about her third uncle and third aunt.

It has nothing to do with family ties, but rather that these two are powerful figures in the Qin family.

In fact, they are far superior to Qin Shengfeng, Qin Yuezhu, and others.

Among the Qin family's high-ranking members, only Qin Shengtu could be considered comparable to him.

The couple had temporarily delegated their power to Qin Xiuzhao and chosen to travel the world, which relieved Qin Wanqing.

Unexpectedly, this accident led to the other party's early return, forcing her to readjust many of her original plans, which was certainly not a good thing.

"Qin Xiuzhao must have been hiding on purpose."

Ye Bai thought for a moment and gave his own judgment.

If he were just an ordinary young master of the Qin family, his sudden disappearance could mean he had been kidnapped.

After all, the Qin family's wealth is enough to tempt many envious people to take risks.

But Qin Xiuzhao was different; Ye Bai knew perfectly well that this guy was colluding with scum of the Xuanmen sect.

With the magical methods of the Xuanmen sect, they are more than capable of protecting themselves from ordinary kidnappers.

Moreover, if the two sides are deeply colluding, there might be scoundrels from the Xuanmen sect secretly protecting Qin Xiuzhao.

Ye Bai guessed that Qin Xiuzhao was hiding for a very simple reason.

Stealing his book and trying to frame him would easily arouse suspicion, so it's only natural for him to lay low for a while.

"Do you think he's hiding in the Han family?"

Qin Wanqing's heart skipped a beat, and she instantly understood Ye Bai's meaning. At the same time, a strange feeling welled up in her heart.

Is this what they call telepathy?

Pah! Who wants to be on the same wavelength as this greedy and lecherous guy! It's all just because I'm smarter than him!

Queen Qin began to act arrogantly as usual.

Ye Bai, of course, had no idea what Qin Wanqing was thinking, but simply nodded and said, "That's very likely."

After he saw Han Mengmeng's photo in Qin Xiuzhao's office, Qin Wanqing told him that this young master of the Qin family was deeply loved by Han Anguo and would often visit the Han family. The relationship between the two was obviously extraordinary.

"If that's the case, it's very likely that this is a scheme by that old fox Han Anguo, whose aim is to get my third uncle and aunt to come back early and add a few more opponents to my team!"

Qin Wanqing sneered, her pretty face turning frosty.

...Are there any good people left in your Qin Group?

Ye Bai thought to himself, then asked curiously, "Didn't your third aunt and uncle transfer the shares to you? Haven't you taken back the CEO position yet?"

With that 6% stake, Qin Wanqing's shareholding should theoretically exceed that of the Qin family's top management.

As long as Han Anguo remains neutral, Qin Wanqing's return to the position of president is virtually guaranteed once the board of directors convenes a meeting.

Judging from the previous situation, although Han Anguo did not want Qin Wanqing to continue serving as the president of Qin Group, he did not have any immediate plans to intervene.

After all, as the president of the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce and the head of the Han family, one of the most powerful families, Han Anguo's situation was completely different from that of Yang Tianju, another elder of the Qin Group.

Yang Tianju can choose sides without any scruples because he has long been completely labeled as a member of the Qin Group.

No matter how much everyone fights for power and profit, it's all an internal matter.

But Han Anguo is different. If he were to actually intervene, it would easily make others think that the Han family was going to declare war on the Qin family.

If the two powerful families were to openly break off relations and start a war, the consequences would be severe, and even the Governor of Jingzhou would not allow it.

The governor's mansion can turn a blind eye to minor squabbles between wealthy families.

But if Jingzhou were to descend into chaos, it would be a challenge to authority.

But when it comes to the authorities, even the wealthiest and most powerful families are no match for them.

"The struggle in the business world is not as simple as two thugs fighting. It's not that simple."

Qin Wanqing glanced at Ye Bai with disdain, but was too lazy to waste her breath explaining.

The complexity of business dealings is comparable to that of officialdom; it cannot be explained in just a few words.

Moreover, this kind of skill requires talent; not everyone can teach it.

Although Ye Bai has an extreme fondness for money, it's obvious he only wants to fleece her. He has absolutely no interest in other ways to make money.

So even if Qin Wanqing wanted to teach, Ye Bai would have to be willing to learn.

Besides, having a career-oriented woman like her in the family is enough. If we had another career-oriented woman, would we still be able to get by?

Ye Bai should just stay a good wife and mother.

No way! Pshaw! Who wants to have his child? Dream on!

Qin Wanqing's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she quickly spat a few times.

"You look down on me, so why are you blushing?"

Ye Bai was somewhat baffled, wondering what had suddenly gotten into this woman.

Qin Wanqing was right about one thing: Ye Bai hated nothing more than intrigue and backstabbing.

They're too lazy to even get involved, let alone take the initiative to learn about it.

"I want you to take care of it!"

Qin Wanqing rolled her eyes at Ye Bai, then snorted, "You have Han Mengmeng's contact information, right?"

Ye Bai shook his head and said, "No."

Although he and Han Mengmeng had crossed paths a few times, they never exchanged any contact information.

"Hmm, I have some, I'll push it to you."

A look of satisfaction flashed in Qin Wanqing's beautiful eyes as she took out her phone.

But when she opened WeChat, she realized that she hadn't added Ye Bai as a friend yet.

Of course, she had added Ye Bai before, but not with her main account, but with a secondary account. As a result, she was later blocked by this scumbag who started something and then abandoned her.

After adding Han Mengmeng as a friend, Qin Wanqing had just sent Han Mengmeng's WeChat to Ye Bai when she suddenly felt it was inappropriate and quickly withdrew it.

"??"

Ye Bai was completely bewildered; he had never even known that this thing had an undo function.

"Forget it, you'd better not get involved in this. Otherwise, you might end up losing more than you gain."

Qin Wanqing shook her head, feeling increasingly annoyed with this guy.

She had originally planned to have Ye Bai extract some useful information from Han Mengmeng, but then she thought that since the two of them were already hooking up, this would be tantamount to her actively creating an opportunity for them.

Given Ye Bai's lecherous nature, he would surrender to that little vixen in no time.

Hmm, this does offer a new idea. Since strangers can't add this person, I can easily impersonate Han Mengmeng or Zhu Daji!

Wouldn't it be easy to get this guy's true colors out of him then?

Qin Wanqing's beautiful eyes lit up, as if she had discovered a new continent...
