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

"It's you again!"

Li Decai's gaze fell on Ye Bai and Shen Lu, and his expression grew even more gloomy.

He still doesn't know Ye Bai's identity, but he has a very deep impression of this guy.

There's nothing I can do about it; it's just that nothing good ever happens when I run into that person.

Last time, Tong Yan brought Ye Bai over as a radio guest, which caused a serious broadcasting accident, and Li Decai was so happy he almost lost his teeth.

He had even decided that he would open the bottle of champagne worth tens of thousands of yuan that someone had given him that night, then dress Wu Cailu in his newly bought uniform and enjoy the enthusiasm of his female subordinate.

Unexpectedly, Ye Bai single-handedly saved the accident by spouting nonsense, and even boosted the show's ratings to unprecedented heights!

Not only did it break the record, it also made the new record a legend forever, the kind that no one can ever reach!

The biggest beneficiary of this is, of course, Tong Yan!

No one cared whether Ye Bai was truly capable or not, but everyone was certain that Tong Yan had the ability to judge people and was incredibly lucky.

These two qualities are undoubtedly essential for a qualified leader.

As a result of this incident, Li Decai's approval rating, which was originally about the same as Tong Yan's in the competition for deputy director, began to decline at a visible rate.

Everyone wants to work with a capable and lucky leader, because once the show achieves results, it means a hefty bonus!

We're all just ordinary folks; who would turn down a good deal of money?

Therefore, for Li Decai, Ye Bai is the culprit who caused him to be at a disadvantage now!

Cutting off someone's path to wealth and hindering their career advancement—this enmity is no small matter.

"Director Li, that 'Spring Water' should be quite effective, right?"

Before Tong Yan could speak, Ye Bai looked at Li Decai with a smile and asked.

"What is 'Kasuga Mizu'?"

Shen Lu looked completely bewildered and turned to look at Tong Yan.

She had originally planned to wait for her son-in-law to give her a shout before going up and smashing Li Decai's thick glasses with a few big punches, but it turned out that her son-in-law didn't seem to intend to do anything; he just wanted to chat with him.

"I've never heard of such a thing before..."

Sensing Shen Lu's pleading gaze, Tong Yan looked completely bewildered.

As an excellent host, her knowledge base is certainly extensive.

Moreover, he spends all his free time reading books to supplement his knowledge in various ways.

But the phrase "Spring Day Water" was something she was hearing for the first time.

Otherwise, she should have had a deep impression of such a strange name.

Compared to Tong Yan and Shen Lu's bewilderment, Li Decai's reaction was much stronger.

In that instant, Director Li's pupils even contracted violently, and his body even trembled slightly.

Fortunately, having worked in the system for many years, Li Decai had developed some self-control, and he managed to keep his legs from weakening and to stand up.

Others didn't know what "Spring Water" Ye Bai was talking about, but he knew perfectly well.

It was an aphrodisiac he secretly bought from the ghost market!

How did this kid know about this?

Buying Viagra or similar products at a pharmacy is fine; at most, people might laugh at you, but it doesn't involve breaking the law.

Buying aphrodisiacs at the black market is a completely illegal and criminal act!

If Li Decai were just an ordinary citizen, it wouldn't matter; at most, he would be arrested, given some education, and locked up for a while.

But he is the director of the TV station, a person with rank and status within the system!

If he breaks the law or commits a crime, the lightest consequence will be dismissal from public office!

That would mean that his twenty years of hard work had been in vain!

How could he possibly bear such a price!

So, just a moment later, Li Decai forced out a smile that looked more like a grimace, and said in a feigned calm tone, "I don't understand what you're saying, but I think there's at most a misunderstanding between us. Director Tong is actually my most admired colleague..."

Unsure whether Ye Bai had any evidence that he had bought the medicine, Li Decai had no choice but to temporarily back down and give in.

Upon seeing this, the child's beautiful eyes widened, and her small mouth opened so wide that it could fit an eggplant.

She wasn't surprised that Li Decai, a petty person, was adept at being arrogant at first and obsequious later; she had seen it all before in front of important figures.

But to act the same way in front of Ye Bai was quite shocking.

However, she was clever and quickly realized that this was not because Li Decai knew Ye Bai's identity, but because of that thing called "Spring Water".

Ye Bai must have caught Li Decai in some way.

"Does Director Li mean he agrees to let us participate in the program as guests?"

Ye Bai asked with a half-smile.

He had to admit that dealing with these seasoned veterans of the system could be quite interesting at times.

Of course, the premise is that you can control them.

Otherwise, their bureaucratic airs and arrogance will give you a real taste of what it means to be part of a proper class system.

"What are you saying! We'd be more than happy to have you helping the TV station!"

Li Decai feigned displeasure, then looked at Tong Yan and said righteously, "Director Tong, although we are friends, we can't let people help for nothing. You can write a note and submit an application later, and the commission will be tripled. I'll sign it with you. We should at least thank you properly."

"Director Li is very considerate!" Ye Bai gave a thumbs up.

Even though I knew he was forced to submit because of threats, his attitude was still quite comforting.

Tong Yan was speechless for a moment. She was becoming more and more curious about what exactly this "Spring Water" was, that it could frighten the usually arrogant and domineering Li Decai to such an extent.

Actually, Ye Bai had warned her before that Li Decai had secretly bought aphrodisiacs at the ghost market, and told her to be careful not to fall for it.

Ye Bai didn't mention the name of the aphrodisiac at the time, so Tong Yan wouldn't immediately associate it with that.

She was a normal and decent girl, unlike that pervert who thought about all sorts of filthy things all day long.

"Director Li! You agreed to let them be guests, fine, but you also want to give them triple the commission?"

A scream came from the side, as Wu Cailu finally couldn't help but jump out, her face filled with disbelief.

It's only because Li Decai was her boss that she almost yelled "Are you out of your mind?" at him.

She also knew little about the "Spring Water" incident, so of course she couldn't understand the fear in Li Decai's heart at this moment.

"Shut up! Who do you think you are? How dare you point fingers at our two directors? Go back and write a 5,000-word self-criticism, and give it in public tomorrow morning!"

Li Decai's face darkened, and he rebuked him sternly.

If it weren't for this stupid woman, he wouldn't have to be so subservient to Ye Bai and the others here.

"I……"

Wu Cailu felt wronged and angry, and finally burst into tears.
