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

This is a very handsome man with a tall and slender build, wearing a gray plaid suit.

He was wearing a white shirt underneath, without a tie, and had short hair, looking clean and refreshing.

He was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but he gave off a very mature and steady aura, a typical successful person.

His smile, in particular, is very approachable and also exudes an air of extraordinary poise.

Even from Ye Bai's perspective as a man, he is an extremely charming and handsome guy who should be very attractive to girls.

Moreover, looking into Qin Wanqing's eyes, although there was appreciation, there was no burning possessiveness.

Did I guess wrong? Is this guy not a simp?

Ye Bai became somewhat curious.

He was definitely meeting this person for the first time, but he always felt a sense of familiarity with him.

After pondering for a while, Ye Bai finally remembered that the other party seemed to have a similar temperament to Zheng Wushuang.

"Wang Teng? When did you get back?"

Qin Wanqing finally saw the other person's appearance clearly, her beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she exclaimed in disbelief.

Besides surprise, his expression also showed a rare hint of joy.

This made Ye Bai's ears perk up instantly, and a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

This guy surnamed Wang... could he be Qin Wanqing's childhood sweetheart or first love?

This is not impossible. Since Queen Qin was not heartless, she must have also experienced the age of first love.

Feelings are not something that can be controlled, especially since Qin Wanqing has a stubborn and obstinate personality.

Tsk tsk tsk, I wonder who confessed to whom back then. It would have been interesting if Queen Qin had been the one to take the initiative!

Just thinking about how Qin Wanqing used to wear two little braids and shyly hand out love letters makes Ye Bai find it very amusing, and he almost burst out laughing on the spot.

"I just came back not long ago, so I opened this Cantonese restaurant to try it out."

Wang Teng smiled slightly and walked to the table where Ye Bai and the others were sitting.

"So you're the owner of this shop..."

Qin Wanqing suddenly realized who had sent the red wine.

"This must be Lulu, right? She's grown so much in the blink of an eye..."

Wang Teng looked at Shen Lu, smiled and nodded, somewhat moved.

"Yes, Brother Wang Teng, you're getting more and more handsome!"

The little girl's big eyes sparkled with admiration; she was clearly indulging in her usual infatuation again.

Unfortunately, although Shen Lu had gradually changed her habit of idolizing celebrities since hanging out with Ye Bai, she still had the problem of being unable to resist handsome men.

But this little girl doesn't have any romantic or love thoughts in her head; she simply likes good-looking people.

Ye Bai sometimes wondered if, in Shen Lu's eyes, those so-called handsome men were also just food.

Because he noticed several times that the way this little girl swallowed her saliva when she looked at a handsome guy was exactly the same as when she saw delicious food.

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment. Lulu will become more and more beautiful."

Wang Teng's smile grew even brighter, and finally his gaze fell on Ye Bai, saying, "This one looks somewhat unfamiliar..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Wanqing began to introduce them: "This is my husband, Ye Bai. Ye Bai, this is Wang Teng, from the Wang family, a long-time friend of the Qin family, and also my classmate from elementary school, middle school, and even high school..."

Wang Teng exclaimed in surprise, "When I came back, I heard people say that you got married, but I thought it was fake news. I didn't expect it to be true!"

As he spoke, Wang Teng complained, "Wanqing, I'm not trying to be mean, but you didn't even tell me about such a big event as your wedding. That's so unfair!"

Qin Wanqing blushed slightly and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, due to some reasons, the wedding was held in a hurry, and I didn't tell anyone..."

In fact, even now, when she recalls the scene when Ye Bai entered the door that day, she still has a very strange feeling.

Moreover, although she and Ye Bai had registered their marriage and had a family banquet, they were an indisputable couple, both in name and in law.

But to this day, they are still only in name without substance.

This kind of marital relationship is really something that can't be told to outsiders.

"Alright, this is a joyous occasion after all, so I won't blame you! But this meal has to be on me, consider it my contribution, and we should have a few drinks!"

Wang Teng first shook his head, then laughed and reached out to Ye Bai, saying, "It's our first meeting, and I didn't prepare any gift. I'll definitely make it up to you next time."

It must be said that, in terms of both demeanor and speech, this young master of the Wang family is outstanding, leaving no room for criticism.

Ye Bai stood up and shook hands with him, then suddenly asked, "When is the next time?"

"what……"

Wang Teng froze on the spot, completely dumbfounded.

Even though he was usually very good at socializing, he didn't know how to respond to that sentence at this moment.

It was just a common polite remark, but the other party insisted on giving him a specific time. Is that something a normal person would ask?

"Wang Teng, don't listen to Ye Bai's nonsense. He always likes to joke around."

Qin Wanqing glared at Ye Bai and explained helplessly to Wang Teng.

"Hehe, Mr. Ye is so humorous."

Wang Teng shook his head and smiled bitterly, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Afterwards, Wang Teng also took a seat, and had someone open the bottle of expensive red wine, and also had a few more bottles sent over.

We then ordered several more main dishes from the waiter, all of which were the most expensive in the entire Cantonese restaurant.

Putting everything else aside, just in terms of sheer extravagance, this young master Wang Teng is absolutely unparalleled.

This table of food and drinks alone would conservatively cost at least a six-figure sum.

Shen Lu ate so much that her head was almost buried in the plate, completely forgetting her earlier sadness.

Ye Bai ate heartily and answered Wang Teng's questions casually, but in the latter's opinion, those answers were basically nonsensical.

For example, when Wang Teng asked Ye Bai what he used to do, Ye Bai said that he followed an unscrupulous Taoist priest in the mountains to cultivate Taoism. Wang Teng felt that the other party was obviously insulting his intelligence.

But Ye Bai did not give a perfunctory answer or lie. Before he returned, he had been cultivating Taoism with the Old Celestial Master.

It's just that the people guarding the mountains don't understand or should understand this, so it's omitted.

Then Wang Teng asked Ye Bai what his hobbies were, such as playing golf, so they could play a round together sometime.

Ye Bai said he couldn't play ball, but he was good at feng shui and divination. His favorite thing to do in the past was to perform rituals and send people to the afterlife.

Wang Teng, of course, didn't believe it. Instead, he felt that Ye Bai was treating him like a fool and that it carried a serious threat.

In fact, Ye Bai did quite a few of these things when he was in the mountains.

Every time a religious ceremony is held, we get to eat some delicious things that we don't usually get to eat...

After a few awkward exchanges, Wang Teng simply ignored Ye Bai and reminisced with Qin Wanqing about the old days.

"Young master, young master, I've noticed that you don't like Brother Wang Teng."

Shen Lu noticed something was wrong and whispered in Ye Bai's ear.

"This guy surnamed Wang is no good; he's a complete hypocrite."

Ye Bai mumbled incoherently as he ate the lobster.

"Young master, how did you figure that out? Tell me quickly..."

Undoubtedly, the saying "he who eats another's food is bound to him" has absolutely no binding force on these two gluttons.
