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

"...What exactly does this guy mean?"

Watching Ye Bai run faster than a rabbit, it took Cao Yuanhu a while to react, and he felt his head start buzzing.

If he hadn't known that the wine at Yuntian Club was definitely safe, he might have even suspected that he had drunk counterfeit wine.

"...Two simps got into a fight, and the scumbag who stole the woman ended up acting as a peacemaker?"

Li Fengyun couldn't figure out what kind of amazing move Ye Bai was making; there was something strange about it that he couldn't quite put his finger on.

However, it is undeniable that after Ye Bai inexplicably pulled this stunt, the tense relationship between Cao Yuanhu and Li Fengyun has eased considerably.

The main reason was to find out what was going on with Bai Yebai, so he temporarily stood on the united front without really understanding what was going on.

In fact, Ye Bai's thoughts were not that complicated at all.

He simply couldn't be bothered to get involved in the pointless squabbles between these two young masters.

Of course, more importantly, Qin Wanqing already has enough enemies.

If possible, he wants to help the other party reduce some of the burden.

At the very least, we shouldn't add two more to the other party's list because of our own reasons.

Therefore, it would be best if these words could turn hostility into friendship, and even if they couldn't, he would try his best to avoid a direct conflict with Cao Yuanhu.

In Jingzhou, the Governor's Office was the real behemoth.

It's bigger than the four major powerhouses.

If Ye Bai were merely a lone figure, given his status as the leader of the Xuanmen sect, he wouldn't need to worry about anything.

But now he is the son-in-law of the Qin family, and many times his actions, even if they don't represent the Qin family, can at least represent Qin Wanqing.

Moreover, through this period of contact, Ye Bai also discovered that Queen Qin was actually a very protective person.

If he causes trouble, Qin Wanqing will definitely stand by his side without hesitation, even at the cost of breaking ties with others.

Realizing this, Ye Bai could no longer act as he pleased when dealing with those wealthy young men, and tried his best to avoid making enemies.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party does not provoke him or cross his bottom line.

If you really piss him off, even the King of Heaven won't help you.

"Young master, why did you come out so soon? Wasn't it fun inside?"

As soon as Ye Bai got back into the car, Shen Lu couldn't help but ask curiously.

She had heard that the Yuntian Club was known as a paradise for men.

Any normal man who comes here will be so happy that he won't want to leave.

But the son-in-law had only been inside for a short time, and he was clearly acting very strangely.

"Hmm, I don't think it's very fun."

Ye Bai shook his head.

The most distinctive features of Yuntian Club are its fine wines and beautiful women.

He wasn't very interested in either of them, so naturally he didn't experience any enjoyment from them.

"Young master, you're lying! You smell of perfume! You've definitely been up to no good in there!"

Shen Lu sniffed her small, delicate nose, looking suspicious.

This little girl is like a puppy; she has a very sensitive nose.

"...In such a short time, what bad things could he possibly do?"

Ye Bai found it both funny and absurd.

"That's hard to say! Miss, you did say you're a ten-second man!"

Shen Lu blushed and said angrily.

"Don't listen to your young lady's nonsense!"

Ye Bai was so angry he almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and he felt even more that Queen Qin deserved to be taught a lesson.

It's one thing to slander him, but to say such things to a little girl is utterly inhumane.

Not long after the two returned home, Qin Wanqing also came home from get off work.

"Did you see Cao Yuanhu today?"

Qin Wanqing asked while elegantly eating her dinner.

Queen Qin, dressed in a cream-colored loungewear and with her long hair casually draped down, exuded a gentle and serene aura that was noticeably more pronounced than usual.

Her exquisitely beautiful face, flawless and without any imperfections, is truly a gift from the Creator, so beautiful that it dazzles and captivates.

In comparison, the so-called top courtesan at Yuntian Club was nothing but a vulgar beauty, not worth mentioning.

Unfortunately, the Queen of Qin did not know any musical instruments, let alone how to play the xiao (vertical flute).

Ye Bai sighed with some regret, then nodded and said, "Yes, I've seen all three of your little lapdogs now."

It's no secret that Qin Wanqing sent people to secretly follow him.

Ye Bai wasn't offended by this; he knew it was a measure Qin Wanqing had taken to protect him.

Otherwise, Shen Lu's small eyeliner would be enough.

"Don't talk nonsense, you're the one who's a simp!"

Qin Wanqing was dissatisfied. Unlike other women, she had never been fond of sycophants.

"...Qin Wanqing, don't slander me out of thin air! When did I ever lick you? Where did I lick you?"

Ye Bai rolled his eyes and started yelling.

"Ye Bai, shut up! Lulu's still here!"

Qin Wanqing blushed deeply, feeling an urge to stuff a cup in his mouth.

This guy is shouting so loudly that if someone hears him, they might imagine some inappropriate images for children.

Even Shen Lu, this innocent and pure little girl, started to look at the two of them with strange eyes.

"...Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Ye Bai looked at Shen Lu with a puzzled expression, and found that the little girl was also staring at him blankly. So the two of them started to stare at each other.

"Cao Yuanhu is not as simple as he seems on the surface. His desire to take that piece of land is not just a whim. You'd better not get involved in this matter."

After eating for a while, Qin Wanqing started to get down to business.

Ye Bai nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

He never intended to help the Ye family in this matter, so he didn't care what Cao Yuanhu's motives were.

After eating and drinking their fill, Ye Bai brewed tea in the study, while Qin Wanqing continued to process some documents.

After a long pause, Qin Wanqing suddenly raised her head and asked with a strange expression, "Zhu Jiuyou was almost killed in the hospital. Was it Yan Yangshuo who did it?"

"Yes." Ye Bai nodded, not hiding anything.

"...You really are worthy of being called Ye Hei, you can even come up with this kind of method of using someone else to do your dirty work."

Qin Wanqing was speechless for a moment, and suddenly felt a little sorry for the adopted son of the Zhu family.

Why did you have to provoke someone like Ye Bai, who doesn't play by the rules?

They might just throw a murderer at you without a second thought. Are you scared or not?

Fortunately, Zhu Jiuyou was lucky; otherwise, the Zhu family would be having a feast by now.

"Don't talk nonsense. What does Yan Yangshuo's liking for killing have to do with me!"

Ye Bai pursed his lips and denied it outright.

"Ye Bai, get out here right now!"

Just then, a fierce roar suddenly came from outside the window of the old house.

Looking out the window, the two saw Qin Shengfeng, the sixth son of the Qin family, jumping up and down and cursing, his face contorted with rage.

"Ye Bai, you little bastard, come out here! Did you steal all the ornamental fish in the pond? I'm going to knock all your teeth out today!"

"If you're a real man, you should take responsibility for your actions! Doesn't the Qin family have fish for you to eat? Why the hell are you staring at my ornamental fish...?"

Listening to Qin Shengfeng's rant like a shrew, Ye Bai smacked his lips and asked, "Do you think there are still any Blood Red Dragons in that pond?"
