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

Qin Wanqing didn't want to be angry, especially in front of outsiders, but she just couldn't help it.

It's one thing for Ye Bai, that scumbag, to go to the woods to meet his female colleague; she can turn a blind eye, since their marriage is only in name, and everyone has the freedom to find someone else.

You two were flirting in the woods, and now you've brought it all to my doorstep. What kind of nonsense is this?

Showing off? Or demonstrating?

Do you really think I, Queen Qin, am a pushover?

Upon hearing this, Ye Bai didn't react, but Jiang Nuai's pretty face turned red. At the same time, she secretly sized up Qin Wanqing, her beautiful eyes filled with both amazement and doubt.

This girl is absolutely gorgeous, with an amazing figure and气质 (qi zhi - a combination of temperament, bearing, and presence). She's like a character straight out of a fairy painting, making one feel involuntarily ashamed of their own appearance.

But what is the relationship between this person and Teacher Ye? Why does he seem so jealous?

"Lulu, do you have any way to secretly send a video to the police? Something that won't reveal our identities..."

Ye Bai was too lazy to explain, so he pulled Shen Lu aside and asked her in a low voice.

He wasn't afraid of the police finding out his identity; after all, he wasn't a criminal and had nothing to hide.

However, if this happens, it will be very troublesome for him to explain, and it is unknown what kind of changes it will cause.

"Uncle... what... what did you just do?"

Shen Lu's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this, and she even started to stammer.

"I encountered a Taoist priest in black robes, and I turned him into an idiot, but I managed to extract a lot of information from him..."

Ye Bai simply took out his phone and showed Shen Lu the video.

"These guys are definitely not good people! Don't worry, son-in-law, leave this to me."

Shen Lu glanced at it twice, her little face filled with anger, and she agreed without hesitation.

Although she was illiterate and not very bright, she had a friend who was an expert in this field, and a single phone call was all it took to get things done.

"Young master, are you and your female colleague really alright? I feel like Miss might really be angry..."

After finishing the business, the little girl asked with a worried look on her face.

"What could possibly happen between us? We just bumped into each other by chance. As for your young lady's situation, she'll be fine after a little while."

Ye Bai smiled and shook his head.

Don't be fooled by Qin Wanqing's current fierce and shrewish demeanor; she's not truly jealous, just annoyed.

Once that feeling passes, everything will naturally be fine.

Ye Bai wasn't worried about Jiang Nuai being bullied by Qin Wanqing. In this respect, Queen Qin was very classy and would never do anything to bully the weak.

Jiang Nuai, on the other hand, is undoubtedly the epitome of being both weak and small.

Just as Ye Bai had guessed, after he and Shen Lu walked back, Qin Wanqing not only stopped looking frosty, but also chatted and laughed with Jiang Nuai, as if they had become friends.

Jiang Nuai was clearly not used to Qin Wanqing's rapid change. Most of the time, she kept her head down and twisted the hem of her clothes, looking very uneasy.

"Since we've met, it must be fate. I've decided to invite Teacher Jiang to have a vegetarian meal with us. Ye Bai, you don't mind, do you?"

Qin Wanqing looked at Ye Bai, her delicate and beautiful eyebrows slightly raised, and said calmly.

"...What is this woman up to now?"

Ye Bai immediately became alert, feeling that Qin Wanqing's behavior was not normal.

As expected, after Jiang Nuai revealed the truth, Queen Qin stopped being sarcastic and cryptic.

Although she appears aloof and arrogant on the surface, Qin Wanqing is a kind-hearted girl at heart, a fact Ye Bai had known for a long time.

Kind as he may be, it's a bit strange to ask someone out to dinner after only a few words and a first meeting.

While instant rapport does exist, it's highly unlikely to happen to the former president of the Qin Group.

Unfortunately, Queen Qin's question was merely a formality; she didn't care about Ye Bai's opinion at all.

What surprised Ye Bai even more was that Jiang Ai, who was supposed to refuse because of her extreme social anxiety, actually agreed!

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Qin!"

Jiang Nuai expressed her gratitude in a low voice. In such a short time, the two of them had already reached the point of calling each other sisters.

Friendships between women can form faster than those between men?

Ye Bai couldn't understand it, but he was too lazy to bother guessing.

Anyway, Queen Qin often has intermittent bouts of erratic behavior; you'll get used to it.

Soon after, the abbot of Qingfeng Temple respectfully invited Old Madam Qin and Ye Bai to a side room.

The place is decorated in an antique style, elegant and exquisite, and vegetarian dishes are placed inside.

"The abbot is reassured."

Old Madam Qin really liked the environment here and was in a great mood.

"I'm glad you're satisfied."

The abbot of Qingfeng Temple secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The Qin family was a real money tree, and being able to build a good relationship with them was something that anyone would dream of, and monks were no exception.

In particular, Qingfeng Temple is now pursuing a commercial path, and aligning itself with a powerful family has brought many benefits.

Just as the abbot of Qingfeng Temple was trying to take the opportunity to chat more with Old Madam Qin and improve their relationship, a young Taoist priest suddenly ran in with a panicked expression.

Even disregarding the presence of Old Madam Qin and the others, he shouted loudly, "Abbot, something terrible has happened! The police are here..."

……

"Teacher Ye, Teacher Jiang, what a coincidence that we've met here again..."

The police station's team was led by Deputy Captain Yu Anqi again.

Upon seeing Ye Bai and Jiang Nuai, even this usually stern and unsmiling policewoman couldn't help but show a strange expression on her pretty face.

The police may not know what the black-robed Taoist priest represents; they only know that a perfectly normal person has suddenly become an idiot and is also involved in a murder case.

Therefore, all the tourists still at Qingfeng Temple have to go through a process and cooperate with the police's questioning.

Fortunately, apart from Ye Bai and Shen Lu, no one else knew the truth. Jiang Nuai did vaguely know some of the secrets, but Ye Bai had reminded her before that as long as she didn't say anything, no one would know about her experience of almost being defiled by the black-robed Taoist.

After some thought, Jiang Nuai decided to remain silent on the matter.

Gossip and rumors can be quite frightening for a girl; she doesn't want to face those strange looks when she goes to work in the future.

So, although Yu Anqi felt it was strange to encounter Ye Bai and Jiang Nuai here, she didn't get any useful information out of them.

Shen Lu's friend, who was skilled in hacking, was very reliable. He only sent the video to Yu Anqi's email address but did not reveal any other information.

The police tried to trace the IP address, but ultimately found no clues and had to give up in frustration.

"I also feel that I have a special connection with Officer Yu."

Ye Bai greeted him with a smile, while Qin Wanqing's eyes widened in surprise.

This scumbag not only flirted with his female colleagues, but also had an affair with a policewoman?
