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

"...You're paying so much attention to Wang Teng, are you jealous?"

Qin Wanqing's expression also began to turn strange as she looked Ye Bai up and down. It was the first time she had ever seen this girl value a man so much.

If she didn't know that this guy was a complete scumbag who flirted with pretty girls everywhere, she would even have suspected that Ye Bai's sexual orientation was abnormal.

"...You're overthinking it. The thing I dislike most in my life is sour food."

Ye Bai shook his head, looking disgusted.

"Aren't you worried about something going on between me and Wang Teng? Aren't you afraid he'll take me away from you?"

Qin Wanqing's pretty face was full of amusement, and there was even a hint of curiosity in her beautiful eyes.

The ever-confident Queen Qin certainly didn't believe that Ye Bai really had no feelings for her at all. How could such a scumbag be indifferent to a beauty like her?

So all those claims about not being interested in her are clearly just her charade, a deliberate attempt to play hard to get.

Since that's the case, she's genuinely curious about the answer to this question.

Whether in terms of appearance, background, or even talent, Wang Teng can be considered one of the best among the scions of wealthy families.

Among the entire younger generation in Jingzhou, perhaps only Zheng Wushuang can be compared to him.

People like Li Fengyun, Zhao Wuyai, and Cao Yuanhu are all a notch below them.

While Ye Bai is quite good-looking, he still falls short of that level of handsomeness.

"What's there to worry about? You won't find anyone better than me. In fact, there's no one who can even compare."

Ye Bai grinned, revealing a mouthful of bright white teeth.

"Hehe, if we're talking about shamelessness, you really might be number one in the world!"

Qin Wanqing rolled her eyes, but was too lazy to pay attention to this self-satisfied guy, and said, "You guessed right before, that middle-aged man with Qu Yunting really is related to Wang Teng, he's his uncle..."

Soon, Ye Bai learned more information from Queen Qin.

It turns out that there was a Wang family in both Jingzhou and Shencheng, and they had a very close relationship.

The Wang family of Jingzhou is a branch of the Wang family of Shencheng.

For this reason, several years ago, for certain reasons, the Wang family of Jingzhou sent some of their outstanding members to the Wang family of Shencheng for a "recognition of their ancestors and return to their ancestral home".

Wang Teng was one of them.

However, Qin Wanqing was unaware of Wang Teng's situation with the Wang family in Shanghai over the years, and she had not inquired about it.

But the middle-aged man with Qu Yunting, in terms of seniority, is Wang Teng's cousin, named Wang Wenping, who can be considered a big shot in the Wang family of Shanghai.

This means that Qu Yunting's hookup with the other party was definitely for some purpose, but it should have nothing to do with sexual enhancement.

After all, a man nearing fifty, no matter how much he takes care of himself and how much he likes to exercise, can't compare to a young man in terms of vitality.

Qu Yunting's target is probably the entire Wang family of Shanghai!

But what exactly they're going to do is something they can't guess right now.

After all, time was short, and Qin Wanqing had very little information.

"Should we send someone to arrest her immediately? To prevent her from harming people again?"

Qin Wanqing looked at Ye Bai and asked.

She had never believed in superstitious things before, such as "sexual energy cultivation" or "spiritual practice".

But during this time of spending time with Ye Bai, Qin Wanqing found that she was no longer as resistant as before.

"Don't alert her yet, wait for her to come back on her own."

Ye Bai shook his head.

Since Qu Yunting has set her sights on Wang Wenping, it means that he won't be harming those young heartthrobs anytime soon.

As for whether the Wang family would suffer, Ye Bai didn't care.

Judging from Wang Teng's fate and character, there are probably not many good people in the Wang family of Shanghai.

Using barbarians to control barbarians can sometimes be a viable strategy.

Most importantly, Qu Yunting must have someone behind her.

It's very likely that it's Sun Yibiao and Zhong Erbin!

Forbidden techniques are not something you can easily come into contact with, let alone successfully master.

Once Qu Yunting gets into trouble, it will be difficult to arrest the others.

"By the way, I checked the number you gave me before. It's registered in Jingzhou, and the owner's name is 'Liu Xiaoer'..."

Qin Wanqing remembered something and looked at Ye Bai, saying...

"Liu Xiaoer? Are you sure that's a normal person's name?"

Ye Bai was dumbfounded.

"Nonsense, do you really think that 'veteran fellow Daoist' is normal?"

Qin Wanqing snorted in annoyance.

"Even if someone is abnormal, they shouldn't have a name like that, right?"

Ye Bai wiped away his cold sweat. He knew that "senior fellow Daoist" was abnormal, but the name was really too much.

"Heh, you do have some intelligence. Fine, this name is fake. Your fellow Daoist used a fake identity to bind the card."

"Speaking of you Taoist practitioners, do you all enjoy playing tricks and spooking? Is it because you've done too many bad things?"

Qin Wanqing said with a mocking expression.

Ye Bai ignored Queen Qin's sarcastic remarks, his expression changing constantly.

Clearly, that "veteran fellow Daoist" is not simple.

In this era where real-name registration is required everywhere, anyone who can use a fake identity for their SIM card is definitely not an ordinary person.

The most representative example is those guys involved in telecom fraud.

However, "senior fellow Daoists" should not belong to this category, otherwise they would have already pretended to be Heavenly Masters and Dao Ancestors to get money from Ye Bai.

If he's not a fraudster, why is he hiding his true identity? Could he really be a criminal?

Ye Bai couldn't figure it out yet, so he sent the other person another message before dinner, but they completely ignored him.

He also tried calling the phone directly, but it was switched off.

It seems that he can only wait for the other party to contact him again; it's almost impossible for him to find the other party first.

That fellow Daoist was clearly a slippery loach.

……

At the same time.

Inside the Jingzhou Library.

A stunningly beautiful woman in her early twenties, exuding an air of intellectual sophistication, was diligently researching information.

The table in front of her was piled high with all sorts of books.

Many of them are yellowed and wrinkled, clearly indicating their age.

The girl was engrossed in flipping through the pages while making notes in her notebook.

If Ye Bai were here, he would recognize at a glance that this girl with an excellent temperament is none other than Liu Banxia, ​​the professor from Jingzhou Medical University whom he had recently attended a lecture at the medical school.

Beside her was a tablet computer.

The screen was lit up, displaying two enlarged images.

One front, one back.

It turned out to be an antique bronze mirror with a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern engraved on the back.

Unlike a normal Bagua diagram, the yin-yang fish on this one is pure black, faintly exuding an eerie aura.

It was a picture that Ye Bai had posted on the forum!
