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

"Teacher Jiang? You skipped class too?"

Ye Bai turned his head and looked at the petite and pretty girl, his expression instantly turning strange.

"I...I don't usually have classes, so...so I asked for leave to clear my head..."

Upon hearing Ye Bai's words, Jiang Nuai's pretty face immediately turned red. She lowered her head, kept rubbing the hem of her clothes, and began to stutter again.

Clearly, Ye Bai's joking behavior was somewhat overwhelming for a socially anxious and shy girl.

So Ye Bai quickly explained with a smile, "I was just kidding. Don't be nervous. It's good to come out for a walk. Did you come alone or with friends?"

He then remembered that not just anyone is qualified to teach at a medical school.

Most of them don't have that, and even if they do, it's usually a supplementary type of lesson.

A teaching assistant like him, who can officially teach students right after becoming a teaching assistant, is extremely rare in the entire medical school, if not unique to Scorpion Tail.

"I came by myself..."

Jiang Nuai has recovered somewhat, but she still doesn't dare to raise her head.

"Well, be careful then, and try not to go to places where there are no people."

Ye Bai thought for a moment and then gave the other person a reminder.

If Qingfeng Temple is truly a secret stronghold of scoundrels from the Xuanmen sect, then the resort at the foot of Mingtai Mountain is hardly safe either.

Because the two were so close, Ye Bai could even faintly see Qingfeng Temple, located on the mountaintop, when he looked up from inside the resort.

The scoundrels of the Taoist sect are all restless individuals who cannot stand being alone; they cannot stay quietly in a Taoist temple without any entertainment facilities forever.

The closest resort with all kinds of entertainment facilities is undoubtedly the first choice.

Although under normal circumstances, those scoundrels from the Xuanmen sect wouldn't dare to commit evil openly, it's still necessary to give them a warning.

As for having Jiang Nuai come with them, Ye Bai didn't even consider it.

They were a family outing, and it was especially inconvenient to bring an outsider along, especially since they were accompanying Grandma Qin to draw lots.

In particular, his relationship with Jiang Nuai was at most that of an acquaintance and colleague, far from being friends.

"I know, thank you for reminding me, Teacher Ye."

Jiang Nuai wasn't one to enjoy crowds, so after expressing her gratitude, she turned and left.

"Son-in-law, I always feel that this female teacher has ulterior motives towards you. Look, she's even followed you all the way here!"

Shen Lu glared angrily at Jiang Nuai's retreating figure, her eyes filled with hostility.

The little girl was always very possessive of her food. Although she didn't think this female teacher could pose a threat to her mistress, she was still extremely annoyed.

"It was probably just a chance encounter."

Ye Bai's heart stirred slightly, and he smiled as he rubbed Shen Lu's head.

After that, he stopped paying attention to the matter and, together with Feng Gu, helped Old Madam Qin stroll around the resort.

The old lady had never been here before, but now that it's her granddaughter's property, she naturally had to take a look.

Qin Wanqing, on the other hand, has many things to do and won't be able to go for a stroll with them for the time being.

But that didn't matter. Their original plan was to spend the morning exploring the resort and have lunch there.

Then rest for a while, and in the afternoon climb Mingtai Mountain to visit Qingfeng Temple.

Anyway, Mingtai Mountain is not high, only a few hundred meters high, and steps have been built long ago, so going up and down is not too difficult.

"I must say, the Ye family really put a lot of effort into this resort..."

After touring for a while, Old Madam Qin nodded in satisfaction.

This resort not only covers a vast area, but also boasts a full range of facilities. The interior design is also very tasteful, exuding elegance and luxury, and is of a very high standard.

The service was excellent; the staff were clearly professionally trained. Even though Ye Bai and his companions didn't reveal their identities, they were treated with utmost politeness, without the slightest impatience, disdain, or contempt.

With both hardware and software up to standard, it's hard for this resort not to be a success; the number of guests is almost at least full.

Making a fortune every day, it's no exaggeration!

"Xiao Bai, you've given Wan Qing a treasure trove!"

The old lady smiled even more happily, extremely satisfied with her grandson-in-law.

The reason the Ye family was willing to give up the resort was, of course, to ask the Qin family for help. But if it weren't for Ye Bai, Ye Xuanyuan would have already gotten his hands on Zhu Daji, and there wouldn't have been any follow-up.

Ultimately, it was Ye Bai who brought this resort back, which is also why Old Madam Qin initially wanted to give it to him.

But Ye Bai refused to accept it and insisted on giving it to Qin Wanqing, which made the old lady look at him with even higher regard.

Twenty million yuan is nothing to her, but it is an absolute temptation for a young person.

At least, apart from Qin Wanqing, probably no one among her grandchildren could refuse her.

Even her eldest grandson, Qin Xiuwen, whom she used to value the most, was the same.

This alone shows Ye Bai's extraordinary nature!

The Qin and Ye families were all ordinary people and couldn't see Ye Bai's value, but Old Madam Qin always could.

And as time goes on, we see more and more of this.

"I don't know how to run a business. This kind of good stuff can only be truly valuable in Wanqing's hands."

Ye Bai also smiled happily. Queen Qin was his only sugar daddy, and he couldn't wait for her to make more money so that she might not be so stingy in the future.

Making money still requires a "transfer station," this divine retribution is just too damn unfair.

By noon, Qin Wanqing had finally finished her work, and the resort had prepared lunch.

In terms of the chefs' skill level, the resort's chefs certainly can't compare to the Qin family's private chefs who cook for state banquets.

However, it is superior in terms of ingredients.

It's not about quality, but about variety.

In addition to the common ingredients available in the market, the resort also boasts a variety of delicious foods due to its proximity to mountains and rivers.

For example, there are mushrooms and wild vegetables whose names even Ye Bai doesn't know, as well as purely wild fish and shrimp, farmed mountain delicacies, and so on.

In short, even Old Madam Qin had a great appetite after this meal and ate much more than usual.

As for Ye Bai and Shen Lu, the two foodies, one big and one small, they almost shoved their heads into the plates.

Fortunately, Qin Wanqing refused the resort executives' offer to drink with her, and only her own family was present; otherwise, she would have been implicated and humiliated beyond belief.

After a satisfying meal, the group rested at the resort for a while before starting their ascent of Mingtai Mountain, heading towards Qingfeng Temple.

To prevent Old Madam Qin from getting tired, Ye Bai simply carried her on his back, acting as a human elevator.

"...Ye Bai, are you sure you can do it? It'll take a long time to climb. Don't make Grandma fall."

Qin Wanqing looked at Ye Bai with suspicion and some worry.

"What are you saying? Don't you know whether I can do it or not? With my physique, I'm incredibly strong, top-notch!"

Ye Bai winked at Qin Wanqing and patted his chest loudly.

Qin Wanqing was initially confused, but when she saw the meaningful smile on Old Madam Qin's face, she finally realized what was going on. Her pretty face flushed red, and she spat out, "You're just bragging. You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth!"
