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

"Ye Bai, are you...asleep?"

After tossing and turning in bed for almost an hour, Qin Wanqing still couldn't fall asleep, so she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Although the bed in this room was also bought by her, and the sheets, blankets, and pillows were her own, it was still very different from the bed she was used to.

What's more, there was a man lying on the sofa not far away, which was an unprecedented and novel experience. No wonder Qin Wanqing couldn't fall asleep.

Even the slightest noise would make her worry that Ye Bai was about to become a beast and try to crawl into her bed, making her delicate body tremble with nervousness.

But when the noise stopped, she breathed a sigh of relief, but was also slightly annoyed.

With such a stunningly beautiful woman like herself lying in bed, how could that greedy and lustful man truly remain unmoved, like Liu Xiahui?

Thus, the two completely different emotions kept going back and forth, and Qin Wanqing was so tormented that she could hardly sleep and was almost going crazy.

Since she couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard she tried, Qin Wanqing decided to have a chat with Ye Bai.

Although this guy is awful and always annoys her, they've already started living under the same roof, and it seems like they'll be living together for who knows how long. Communicating more is never a bad thing.

Judging from Grandma's resolute attitude, she definitely wouldn't let her and Ye Bai sleep in separate rooms unless she got pregnant.

But if her belly is really big, then what's the point of sleeping in separate rooms?

The more Qin Wanqing thought about it, the more confused she became, so she decided to mess with Ye Bai as well.

It doesn't make sense that I can't sleep while that guy is sleeping soundly.

In fact, Ye Bai had indeed fallen asleep.

The sudden presence of another person in the room was a bit unusual for him, but the thought that it was his sugar daddy who would give him five thousand yuan for sleeping in the bed for a day made Ye Bai feel that this kind of life was indescribably wonderful.

So after taking a shower, Ye Bai browsed the Jingzhou food ranking list for a while and then started daydreaming with drool in his mouth.

However, he was always a vigilant sleeper, and although his room was a suite, it didn't have any doors except for the bathroom, so the sound was barely blocked. Therefore, he woke up when he heard Qin Wanqing speaking.

"Qin Wanqing, what are you doing up so late at night? You don't mean you want me to sleep in your bed with you, do you?"

"Let me tell you, the deal is done, and it's too late for you to regret it now. Even if I go to bed with you, you still have to give me five thousand yuan!"

Ye Bai asked warily.

He had already experienced firsthand how stingy the Queen of Qin was; she was capable of anything.

"...I'm letting you sleep in my bed and I'm going to give you five thousand yuan? Ye Bai, are you out of your mind?"

Qin Wanqing was taken aback at first, then she was so angry that she almost jumped out of bed to fight this arrogant idiot.

She had heard from others before that Ye Bai's mind wasn't quite right, but she hadn't taken it seriously.

Looking at it now, this guy isn't just abnormal, he's practically missing a screw in his head, and not just one screw!

"Oh, so that's not what you meant. That's fine then."

Ye Bai visibly breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "So what do you want to do?"

"...I'll fucking fuck your grandpa!"

At this moment, Qin Wanqing really wanted to swear, but she held it back in the end, gritting her teeth and saying, "Go to sleep! If your snoring disturbs me, you'll lose five thousand yuan!"

She realized that she couldn't have a single conversation with this mentally unstable guy.

……

"That's more like it! Young people should not only work hard in their careers, but also in their family lives."

The next morning, seeing Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing with dark circles under their eyes, clearly having not slept well, Old Madam Qin nodded in satisfaction, beaming with joy.

In her view, her eldest granddaughter and grandson-in-law had moved in together and clearly hadn't slept much all night, so it was obvious what they were up to.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wanqing's pretty face flushed red, but she didn't dare to say anything and could only silently drink her porridge.

Ye Bai's lips twitched, and he looked like he was about to cry.

Heaven have mercy, sleeping with the Queen of Qin is just too damn torturous.

Every ten minutes or so, he would ask, "Ye Bai, are you asleep?"

And this cycle happened just as Ye Bai was falling asleep and sleeping soundly.

As a result, Qin Wanqing's voice jolted him awake.

But whenever Ye Bai asked her what she really wanted to do, this woman would always give the same answer.

"It's okay, go to sleep."

And so, for the entire night, Ye Bai estimated that he would be lucky to get an hour of sleep at most.

No matter how good his physique is, being tormented like this all night is an ordeal.

This woman has a terrible conscience.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Qin Wanqing went to work at the Qin Group. Ye Bai, as usual, accompanied Old Madam Qin to the park to listen to opera. After lunch, he didn't bother to catch up on sleep and continued to wander around, trying to lure Yan Yangshuo out.

Because of the tight schedule, Ye Bai didn't even have time to go to Guangmang Pharmaceutical Company to arrest the scoundrel from the Xuanmen named "Shang Sanning".

After all, Yan Yangshuo was far more dangerous than the black-robed Taoist priest.

Although the former had other schemes, they only dared to plot in secret, and mostly sought financial gain, rarely resorting to murder.

But the latter was a complete madman who disregarded all rules and could cause countless deaths and injuries in a single outburst.

While attempting to lure the snake out of its hole, Ye Bai also instructed Ding Shuai, Qi Bowen, Deng Zhong, and others to use their respective strengths to help in the search.

Although Ding Shuai had found a place to hide, he still had a wide network of connections after so many years in the Ghost Market.

Needless to say, Qi Bowen and Deng Zhong held extraordinary positions in the upper echelons of Jingzhou society, perfectly complementing Ding Shuai's position.

Even with help, Ye Bai still didn't have much hope of finding Yan Yangshuo.

This demon is incredibly good at hiding.

……

About 100 meters east of the Qin Group headquarters building, in front of a steamed bun shop.

A man was eating a steamed bun while observing the magnificent building.

The person was wearing a blue and white checkered T-shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of black cloth shoes with white trim. There was also a large blue snakeskin bag on the ground next to him.

He was about forty years old, with a very ordinary appearance, looking no different from the farmers who came to the city to work.

In just a few minutes, the middle-aged man had eaten more than a dozen buns the size of bowls. Under normal circumstances, an adult male would eat at most four or five buns of that size in one meal.

Such an astonishing appetite naturally attracted the boss's attention.

Before the boss could speak, the middle-aged man suddenly asked, "Boss, I heard that the female president of the Qin Group married a man named 'Ye Bai,' is that true?"

As he spoke, a chillingly fierce glint suddenly flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes...
