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

Finally, after Lu Sita's earnest persuasion, Ye Bai was convinced that the Mingtaishan Resort fell into the category of "ill-gotten gains".

Although it was a betrothal gift from the Ye family to the Qin family, the timing was too delicate, as Ye Xuanyuan was being held in jail at the time.

One of the reasons the Ye family sent the resort away was to get Old Madam Qin to mediate, which means there was no ulterior motive.

Therefore, in conclusion, Ye Bai must return the resort to the Ye family if he wants to avert disaster.

"Anyway, you're all family, it's just a formality. After you return the resort to the Ye family, they'll give it to you as a gift. That way, it's just a transfer of ownership, the disaster is averted, and you haven't suffered any loss..."

Finally, Lu Sita made a summary.

Ye Xuanyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "So the problem actually stemmed from that resort. Look at the mess this has made! Your parents meant well, worried that you would be looked down upon by the Qin family, so they took this opportunity to send a big gift over. They never expected it would end up harming you..."

Watching the two of them put on such a clumsy performance, Ye Bai barely managed to suppress his laughter.

Even though he's a disgrace to the Xuanmen (Taoist sects), he can still be considered a member of the Xuanmen.

As a member of the Xuanmen sect, Lu Sita actually wants to help the young Xuanmen celestial master resolve his tribulation. If this kind of divine operation gets out, I wonder how many people will laugh themselves to death.

In fact, after Lu Sita rejected the November Bar, Ye Bai completely guessed Ye Xuanyuan's true purpose.

We came here for the resort at Mingtai Mountain.

Ye Bai was puzzled. While the Mingtai Mountain Resort was indeed valuable, it shouldn't have made Ye Xuanyuan so reluctant to part with it.

More than 20 million is a huge sum of money that ordinary people cannot earn in several lifetimes.

But for a rich young master who can easily spend hundreds of thousands in nightclubs, it's really nothing.

Even less valuable than Ye Xuanyuan's reputation.

So the question is, why would Ye Xuanyuan be so shameless as to resort to such despicable means to take the resort back from him?

Moreover, how did this guy suddenly become so savvy and start using such tactical methods?

Ye Bai couldn't think of a solution, but it certainly wasn't something that would please the other party.

"Brother, you should have said so earlier. Now I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. As for that resort, since Mom and Dad originally said it was for the Qin family's betrothal gifts, I gave it to Wanqing immediately."

“She went there a few days ago and completely took over the resort. From now on, I have absolutely nothing to do with it…”

Ye Bai said with a melancholy expression.

"You transferred the resort to Qin Wanqing?"

Ye Xuanyuan suddenly stood up, both shocked and furious.

He knew that Qin Wanqing had taken over the resort, since none of the resort's staff had been replaced; they were mostly elderly people recruited by the Ye family.

It's perfectly normal to secretly pass messages to this young master.

Ye Xuanyuan didn't take it seriously at the time. He knew that Ye Bai had no ability to run a business and could only ask Qin Wanqing for help.

Unexpectedly, this kid is really generous. He just gave away a resort worth more than 20 million yuan!

"Young Master Ye, don't worry. It's just a company transfer and change, nothing difficult."

Seeing that Ye Xuanyuan was anxious, Lu Sita quickly reminded him and gave him a wink.

Although things didn't go as smoothly as they initially estimated, the more difficult it was, the less they could afford to rush things.

Otherwise, all previous efforts could easily be wasted.

"Sigh, I'm also worried about Xiaobai. If this calamity can't be resolved, and if Qin Wanqing's curse of bringing misfortune to her husband really causes something bad, my parents won't let me off the hook."

Ye Xuanyuan reacted quickly, suppressing his anger and looking worried, just like a good older brother who was concerned about his younger brother.

"This matter is not difficult to resolve. Mr. Ye, go back and discuss it with Miss Qin, tell her the truth, and I believe Miss Qin will agree."

Lu Sita stroked his long beard again, his confidence returning.

The Qin family is a powerful force; for them, a resort worth over 20 million is nothing.

Moreover, this resort was originally a gift from Ye Bai to the other party.

"Then I'll go back and discuss it with Wanqing. Thank you for your trouble, brother!"

Ye Bai took a deep breath and looked at Ye Xuanyuan with a moved expression.

When he first came here, he felt a little guilty that Ye Xuanyuan was being targeted by Yan Yangshuo because of him. After all, this was no child's play and could easily lead to someone's death.

But now that he has fully understood Ye Xuanyuan's purpose, Ye Bai feels that what he did was completely right.

Wanting to take back all the betrothal gifts that have been given out—only the eldest son of the Ye family could do something like that.

Moreover, Ye Bai had no doubt that if it weren't for the need for him to take back the resort, Ye Xuanyuan would not only not care about him, but would even want to kill him.

Even their fake sisterhood has some genuine affection involved.

Between him and Ye Xuanyuan, there was often a coldness that lacked even pretense.

Today's performance was actually the climax of their "brotherly relationship".

That's why, when Ye Bai left the Yuntian Club, Ye Xuanyuan saw him off for the first time in his life, and earnestly instructed him: "You need to hurry. Master Lu said that if you drag it out, he won't be able to help you."

"Don't worry, brother. I'll talk to Wanqing when I get back today. Thank you anyway."

Ye Bai nodded, then, suppressing his nausea, stepped forward and hugged Ye Xuanyuan.

This time, he deliberately held her for a little longer until Ye Xuanyuan couldn't help but struggle, and then he reluctantly let go.

After Ye Bai rode away on his electric scooter, a middle-aged man buying cigarettes in a supermarket across from the Yuntian Club was carefully observing Ye Xuanyuan, who was still standing in front of the door.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

……

As soon as the electric scooter reached the street corner, Ye Bai made a turn, followed the alley, and returned to the vicinity of the Yuntian Club, where he got into an ordinary taxi.

"Young master, you're back..."

Shen Lu, who had been waiting in the car, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this and quickly asked in a low voice, "Is everything alright?"

Ye Bai shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing. Did you find anything here?"

When he and Shen Lu arrived here, they didn't let the little girl show up with them. Instead, they had her secretly find a taxi and park it diagonally opposite the Yuntian Club to observe the surrounding area.

Of course, it wasn't to monitor Ye Xuanyuan. At that time, Ye Bai didn't know that there was a black-robed Taoist priest by his side.

He wanted Shen Lu to monitor Yan Yangshuo, who was likely to have followed him here and was hiding in the shadows!

If that serial killer hadn't followed, all his disgusting act today would have been for nothing.

However, when he thought about the black-robed Taoist priest that Ye Xuanyuan had brought him, he felt that the trip was worthwhile.

These rats, who like to hide in the shadows, are really hard to find if you don't show yourself.

Yan Yangshuo was like this, and so were the scoundrels of the Xuanmen sect.
