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

"Wanqing, are you telling the truth? That guy surnamed Ye gave you this November? He's not just messing with you, is he?"

Li Fengyun's reaction was even more intense than Zhu Daji's; he almost jumped up from the ground.

The reason they did this was because they understood better than anyone else just how valuable this bar was!

A small goal, just given away like that?

Even the son of China's richest man might not have such a grand gesture, right?

Damn it! Who is the real heir to a wealthy family?

At this moment, Li Fengyun was filled with sorrow and once again fell into deep self-doubt.

"Ye Bai, is what Qin Wanqing said true?"

Zhu Daji looked at Ye Bai and asked directly.

She doesn't have as many inner monologues as Li Fengyun; whether it's true or false can be easily determined by asking.

However, her tone was equally sour. As the eldest daughter of the Zhu family and one of the most beautiful women in Jingzhou, she had naturally received no shortage of gifts since childhood.

Even if you add all those things together, it still wouldn't be worth as much as this bar.

"it is true."

Ye Bai smiled and nodded, then said, "But I am her husband after all, so it's no problem for me to treat you to a few drinks."

Although he wasn't exactly friends with this big devil and little sycophant, they weren't enemies either. It wouldn't hurt for them to sit together and have some fun, since getting the bar was a great thing after all.

Moreover, if Zhao Wuyai hears that Zhu Daji and Li Fengyun have come to his old bar to celebrate his loss, it will be a huge blow, and he might even vomit blood.

Ye Bai never hesitated to make those he had already sworn enemies suffer an even more miserable fate.

Generosity is something that is never reserved for enemies.

"Ye Bai!"

Hearing Ye Bai acting like he was in charge, Qin Wanqing blushed slightly and rolled her eyes, but she didn't try to shoo him away anymore.

Although she has a bit of a temper, she has always been excellent in terms of family upbringing because she was raised by Old Madam Qin since childhood.

It doesn't matter how she treats Ye Bai in private, or when Shen Lu, the "baby," is involved.

But in front of outsiders, you still have to save face for your man; that's the rule.

"We must eat the big spenders today! We must eat the dog-eat-big spenders!"

Li Fengyun showed no politeness whatsoever, took a seat, rolled up his sleeves, and looked like he was determined to drink Ye Bai out of house and home.

"Shut up, you little lapdog."

Ye Bai's casual remark infuriated the eldest son of the Li family, who nearly jumped up to challenge him to a duel.

"By the way, I heard that Qin Wanqing, you also went to Qingfeng Temple to draw lots? And you drew lots for descendants?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems you're starting to feel threatened now, afraid that your Ye Bai will be snatched away by this young lady, right?"

"So you can't wait to give Ye Bai a big, healthy son so you can keep him tied down? But that's not a very good idea. Have you thought about who the child will live with after the divorce?"

Zhu Daji sipped her cocktail and began to chatter on and on about Qin Wanqing again.

Arguing with the Queen of Qin has become a daily routine for her, and there's absolutely no way she can control it.

If she doesn't nag a bit whenever she sees Qin Wanqing, it's more unbearable than killing her.

"Hehe, you want to have a child but you don't even have the chance! If you're feeling horny, hurry up and find a man, stop staring at married men. If all else fails, I think you and Li Fengyun could make do."

"You two are a good match, and the most important thing is that neither of you is very bright. Maybe something miraculous will happen if you put yourselves together. Haven't you heard that two negatives make a positive?"

Qin Wanqing snorted coldly. Of course, she wouldn't tolerate Zhu Daji and immediately switched to her sharp-tongued mode.

"Wanqing, how can you say such a thing! Heaven can bear witness to my devotion to you. I'm not as promiscuous as Ye Bai!"

Li Fengyun looked at Qin Wanqing with deep affection, displaying the typical simp look of someone who would still treat her like their first love even if she tormented him a thousand times.

"Li Fengyun, get out of my way."

Qin Wanqing simply kicked this guy out.

"...Li Fengyun, you're hopeless. You don't just have one child, do you? Go back and tell your parents to hurry up and give you another baby brother. Your first child is completely useless."

Ye Bai was speechless for a while, and finally kindly offered a word of advice.

Although Li Fengyun was nominally his "love rival," Ye Bai never considered him a threat.

On the contrary, I felt sorry for this little sycophant.

Not all simps are the annoying type; some are just adorably silly.

Li Fengyun clearly belongs to the latter category.

"Screw you! Drink! Today I'm going to drink you bankrupt!"

Li Fengyun, who had been hurt all over by the goddess once again, stared at Ye Bai, his number one rival in love, with red eyes, and started to force him to drink.

Ye Bai had no interest in drinking with such a small dog, so he simply called Ding Shuai over as well.

Since it was to celebrate the change of ownership of the bar, he should have invited some friends to join in the fun.

Unfortunately, in the Jingzhou region, there were very few people who could truly be called his friends.

"Brother Li! We feel like old friends today, we must drink until we drop!"

"Brother Ding! The more I look at you, the closer I feel to you. Could we have really been brothers in our past lives?"

As it turned out, Ye Bai's judgment was very accurate.

Even though it was their first time meeting, Ding Shuai and Li Fengyun found they had a lot in common.

After a few bottles of wine, they became best friends who felt like they had known each other for ages.

"Lulu, why are you staring at the hammer?"

After reassuringly handing over Li Fengyun, this little sycophant, to Ding Shuai, the experienced dog trainer, Ye Bai finally felt much better, but soon noticed something was wrong again.

Shen Lu, sitting to the side, was pouting and staring intently at Zhu family bodyguard Tie Chui not far away, muttering something to herself.

Iron Hammer, however, didn't even bother to glance at the little girl. He just sat there drinking his beer while constantly observing the surroundings, faithfully fulfilling his duties as a bodyguard.

From this perspective, the Zhu family's bodyguards are much more reliable than the Qin family's.

Of course, it's also because Shen Lu was never a real bodyguard for the Qin family; she was just a little pet who wasn't very bright.

"Young master, do you think I can beat him now?"

Shen Lu was eager to try, her little face full of excitement.

Although she hadn't been training according to Ye Bai's methods for very long, the little girl's ego was already starting to swell.

"...You still have a long way to go."

Ye Bai was both amused and exasperated. He simply couldn't understand why Shen Lu always wanted to challenge Tie Chui.

Although Qin Wanqing and Zhu Daji fought every time they met, it wasn't enough to cause such deep-seated hatred between their two families.

"Ok."

Shen Lu looked dejected, her little face scrunched up.

"Mr. Ye, the special guest you've been looking for has arrived..."

Just as Ye Bai was about to have a good talk with Shen Lu and find out if the Qin family was necessarily going to fight the Zhu family to the death, the bar manager, Xiang Xinyi, suddenly walked over quickly and whispered something in Ye Bai's ear.
