"From what I've heard, Ye Ruyan has actually been back for several days, but she didn't tell you right away. Instead, she chose to invite us to the banquet today. I think this is definitely not just an ordinary family dinner..."

On the way, Qin Wanqing began to analyze the situation.

The intelligence department under her command, which was led by Chu Qian, was quite capable, and it wouldn't be difficult for her to find out this information.

Ye Bai nodded and said, "Those who come are not friendly; those who are friendly do not come."

He couldn't guess what the Ye family and Ye Ruyan's purpose was for the time being, but it certainly wasn't anything good.

The truly good things are not for him, the adopted son.

"By the way, I heard Ye Ruyan is even more beautiful than before. You're such a scumbag, didn't you ever think about having something happen with your 'adopted sister' back when you were in the Ye family?"

Qin Wanqing suddenly asked with a subtle expression.

"...Please, I was just a child back then, okay?"

Ye Bai was speechless for a moment, increasingly unable to understand what this woman was thinking about all day long.

"Hehe, that's hard to say. Being young doesn't mean you have a small heart. Just like being old doesn't mean you have a young heart. Being a jerk doesn't discriminate based on age."

Qin Wanqing sneered and continued, "You really didn't peek at Ye Ruyan taking a bath back then? Can you swear to God?"

"...I'll smear it all over your face!"

As Qin Wanqing's words became increasingly outrageous, Ye Bai felt an urge to stuff a sausage into her mouth.

The car he often rode in didn't have much else, but it was full of snacks like ham sausages and cookies.

Shen Lu bought them all, worried that she and her son-in-law would starve to death on the road.

"If your adoptive parents had betrothed Ye Ruyan to you back then, wouldn't you have been overjoyed?"

Qin Wanqing asked again.

"...You wouldn't happen to be trying to outdo Ye Ruyan, would you? And are you worried about not being able to beat her?"

Ye Bai finally began to understand, and looked at Qin Wanqing with a strange expression.

"Pshaw! What's there to compare me to? Is there anyone in this world I can't beat? No matter how outstanding they are in front of my sister, they can only be younger sisters."

Qin Wanqing snorted coldly, raised her fair and delicate chin, and looked arrogant.

"That's right, that's right! Miss is the best, no one can compare to her!!"

As Shen Lu drove, she nodded in agreement, revealing her true nature as a sycophant to the fullest.

"It's such a waste that you two aren't selling melons..."

Ye Bai pursed his lips and simply ignored the narcissistic Queen Qin.

Soon after, the car entered the upscale villa area where the Ye family lived.

"Wait! Lulu, stop the car!"

Before they even arrived at the Ye family's villa, Qin Wanqing, who had been looking out the window at the scenery, suddenly had a dramatic change in expression and exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Lu wasn't the brightest, but her reaction was incredibly quick. Upon hearing this, she slammed on the brakes, nearly throwing Ye Bai off the windshield.

"what's the situation?"

Ye Bai looked bewildered and glared at Qin Wanqing, wondering what had gotten into this woman all of a sudden.

Fortunately, there are very few vehicles in this villa area; otherwise, if this happened on a public road, it would be abnormal if it didn't cause a chain-reaction collision.

"I saw that feng shui master who paralyzed me!"

After saying that, Qin Wanqing opened the car door and jumped out.

Upon hearing this, Ye Bai's eyes narrowed sharply, and he quickly followed behind Qin Wanqing.

The reason why Queen Qin was paralyzed had absolutely nothing to do with her own fate of bringing misfortune to her husbands; someone had secretly tampered with her destiny.

If it weren't for Ye Bai, he would have spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

This is not an illness, but rather involves feng shui and metaphysics, and cannot be cured by medicine.

More importantly, no master of the mystical arts would do something so likely to incur divine retribution without a reason, unless they were hired or coerced.

There must be a real mastermind behind the other side!

Unfortunately, although Qin Wanqing continued to search for him, he seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Despite the efforts of Chu Qian's intelligence department, which had been monitoring Zhao Chengfeng, the master of the Xuanmen sect, around the clock, they still found nothing.

Unexpectedly, I ran into them here today.

Qin Wanqing's loss of composure was entirely understandable.

After getting out of the car, Ye Bai quickly glanced around but couldn't identify his target.

There were some pedestrians on the paths in the villa area, some carrying children, some walking dogs, and some pushing wheelchairs.

On the surface, none of these people seem to have anything to do with the so-called "master of the mystical arts".

As the current leader of the Xuanmen sect, Ye Bai could not possibly know everyone in the sect, but as long as he saw someone, he could sense an aura from them that was different from that of ordinary people.

This made him wonder if Qin Wanqing was seeing things.

The saying "What you think about during the day, you dream about at night" still holds a lot of truth. However, many people don't only think about the people they deeply love; the people they deeply hate are also among them.

Forced to resign as president of the Qin Group due to paralysis, she had no choice but to marry into the Ye family, and finally prepared herself for the possibility that she would never be able to stand up again...

For Qin Wanqing, who has experienced so much trauma, the person she hates the most in this life is naturally the Xuanmen master who tampered with her destiny!

It is no exaggeration to say that it was the other party's actions that brought about a dramatic change in her fate!

Anyone who has such an enemy will definitely never forget him, and may even dream countless times about capturing him and taking revenge.

Therefore, it is entirely reasonable for some hallucinations to occur.

But Qin Wanqing shook her head upon hearing this, and said with great certainty, "I'm sure I'm not mistaken, that guy is right here, it's just that we don't know which restaurant he went to yet!"

Not all wealthy families in Jingzhou own manors; many still live in upscale villa areas, like the Ye family.

This has resulted in the high-end villa district in Jingzhou not only having a large area, but also comprehensive facilities and a large number of buildings.

Putting aside the overall situation, there are no fewer than ten buildings within a 200-meter radius of Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing.

Qin Wanqing was still unable to determine which building the esoteric master had entered.

She only caught a fleeting glimpse of it from the car, and could roughly pinpoint its location to be one of the three villas on the left side, which is the west side of the walkway.

"Lulu, go check what those house numbers are, and then have Chu Qian check the identity of the homeowners..."

Qin Wanqing gave the order, then looked at Ye Bai and said apologetically, "Why don't you go to the Ye family first?"

They came here today to attend the Ye family banquet, and their discovery of the Xuanmen master's whereabouts was purely accidental.

However, finding the other party might not be so easy, and that would definitely waste time.

But she didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, since finding someone was really too difficult.

"...With just the two of you and Lulu, even if you find the person, you won't be able to handle them. It's a buy-one-get-one-free deal."

Ye Bai couldn't help but laugh.
