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

"Don't be afraid, Kou'er. This Teacher Ye is a doctor I invited. He's very skilled and will definitely be able to cure your illness..."

Seeing that Jiang Kou'er's eyes had regained some liveliness, Jiang Nu'ai quickly stepped forward and said.

"Oh."

Jiang Kou'er responded softly, but her expression remained unchanged, still as numb as before, and she didn't even glance at Ye Bai.

Undoubtedly, after years of unsuccessful treatments, the young girl had long since given up all hope for her illness.

Fortunately, Jiang Kou'er listened to Jiang Nu'ai and did not refuse Ye Bai's examination.

"It really is a rare case of dissociative identity disorder..."

After a long pause, Ye Bai turned to look at Jiang Nuai and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you and Kou'er live before?"

"Ah...this...is this...important?"

Jiang Nuai's pretty face suddenly turned pale, her beautiful eyes filled with panic, and she began to stammer again.

Ye Bai nodded and said, "It's very important."

Jiang Nuai didn't say anything, but kept her head down and kept tugging at the hem of her clothes.

Because of the excessive force, his slender fingers turned bluish-white.

Ye Bai didn't urge them, but looked at Shen Lu and Shen Zhu and said, "You two go and buy some things for Kou'er, like daily necessities. Also, buy some good food, we'll have a big meal here tonight."

As he spoke, Ye Bai took out a bank card, handed it to Shen Zhu, and said with a smile, "I promised to treat you to dinner before. Today isn't a formal dinner, just consider it an appetizer. Buy whatever you want to eat. The PIN is six eights..."

He had originally planned to transfer the money to Shen Lu, but worried that the girl wouldn't accept it, so he decided to use a bank card instead.

"That's great! Thank you, Brother Ye!"

Shen Zhu cheered and, before Shen Lu could refuse, quickly took the card and pulled the latter away.

"Shen Zhu, you money-grubbing pig! How could you take your son-in-law's bank card! What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you!"

Upon reaching the gate, Shen Lu finally couldn't hold back and glared angrily at Shen Zhu.

She knew exactly how poor her son-in-law was.

In order to earn some money, she had to outwit and outmaneuver the prostitutes every day, which made Shen Lu feel very sorry for her.

Several times she wanted to secretly give her son-in-law some pocket money, but she was afraid of hurting his self-esteem.

"Shen Lu, you really have no brains! Didn't you realize that Brother Ye deliberately sent the two of us away?"

"If the two of us are there, there are some things that Kou'er's sister can't say."

"Besides, it was Brother Ye who said he would treat me to something delicious, so at worst... at worst I'll just buy something cheaper!"

Shen Zhu snorted defiantly.

……

"Teacher Ye, is it really... really necessary to say this?"

Inside the room, Jiang Nuai was still caught in a dilemma, her pretty face filled with struggle.

"I'm not getting treatment anymore!"

Before Ye Bai could even speak, Jiang Kou'er suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs.

Because of her intense emotions, the little girl's originally delicate face became ferocious at this moment!

A fierce glint flashed in her beautiful, large eyes.

It was as if they had suddenly transformed from a cute little angel into a devil crawling out of hell!

But this change was extremely brief. In an instant, Jiang Kou'er was back to the way Ye Bai had seen her when he first entered the room.

His eyes were dull and lifeless.

Clearly, Jiang Kou'er had a relapse after being provoked.

"me……"

Jiang Nuai was so anxious she was almost in tears, but she still refused to answer Ye Bai's question.

Seeing this, Ye Bai sighed and said with a complicated expression, "If I'm not mistaken, you and Kou'er are both from 'South Fire Town,' right?"

……

Qin Group Headquarters.

Qin Wanqing was working on the documents on her desk when a knock suddenly sounded at the door.

Then, Chu Qian walked in quickly.

"President Qin, I've finally found out Jiang Nuai's background!!"

Chu Qian looked excited, and her voice trembled slightly.

"Oh? Tell me."

Qin Wanqing put down the documents, gently rubbing her temples, a hint of fatigue showing on her delicate and flawless face.

Unfortunately, the companies under the Qin Group have been having problems lately, keeping her extremely busy and stressed.

So much so that if Chu Qian hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about Jiang Nuai.

Before she turned twenty, Jiang Nuai lived in a place called 'Nanhuo Town'...

Chu Qian took a deep breath and this time didn't dare to keep them in suspense any longer.

Her boss wasn't exactly known for his good temper, and she didn't want to lose her job anytime soon.

"Nanhuo Town? That name... it feels somewhat familiar..."

Qin Wanqing was taken aback. Her brain was still working and she hadn't quite come to her senses yet, so she didn't immediately associate those three words with anything else.

“Nanhuo Town is a very strange place. There are several places with the same name on the map, but after I sent people to check, I found that none of them have anything to do with Jiang Nuai.”

"Finally, it was through internet censorship abroad that we obtained a shocking piece of news."

"Nanhuo Town is not a place name, but the name of an assassin organization! The word 'town' doesn't represent a small town, but rather suppression..."

Chu Qian swallowed hard and said with some difficulty.

"South Fire Town? An assassin organization?"

Qin Wanqing's beautiful eyes suddenly narrowed, as she finally remembered why these three words seemed so familiar.

Before she could say anything more, the phone on the table suddenly started buzzing.

Qin Wanqing picked it up and saw that it was a call from Captain Yu Anqi of the police station.

"Miss Qin, there's something important I need to tell you. At Mr. Ye's suggestion, we carefully examined the characters 'Nan Huo' and made a startling discovery!"

"This 'South Fire' is actually the name of a criminal organization from overseas! Its full name is 'South Fire Town,' and they are engaged in criminal activities such as assassination and kidnapping!"

"We have reason to suspect that the assassin Li Yuan, who wanted to kill you, came from this organization!"

"It seems someone paid them a high price to use censored websites overseas, but further investigation is needed to determine the specifics..."

Putting down her phone, Qin Wanqing's expression grew increasingly serious, and a strange look also crept onto her face.

Southfire Town, an assassin organization...

Could it be that Jiang Nuai, that seemingly gentle and weak female teacher, is actually an assassin?

The contrast is too great!

"President Qin, do you remember when Jiang Nuai was kidnapped last time?"

Seemingly sensing Qin Wanqing's confusion, Chu Qian suddenly asked.

Qin Wanqing nodded. Of course she remembered this incident. That scumbag Ye Bai had even taken the opportunity to sneak into the woods with the beautiful department head.

"After kidnapping Jiang Ai, the kidnappers did nothing and even let her return safely, which is clearly illogical!"

"Now it seems that either the kidnapper and Jiang Nuai knew each other, or Jiang Nuai was incredibly cunning and silently eliminated the kidnapper..."

Chu Qian continued her analysis.

"...So, that Teacher Jiang really is a dangerous person!"

Qin Wanqing nodded, then her pretty face suddenly changed, and she exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh no! Lulu messaged me a while ago saying that they and Jiang Nuai are going to a certain place. Doesn't that mean they'll be in danger?"
