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

"What do you mean by that, Mr. Ye? Are you looking down on us?"

Looking at Ye Bai's hateful smile, Qin Wanqing's teeth started itching with anger again.

"Don't you have any idea how weak you are? You're only capable of fighting alongside us! If we really get into danger, Lulu can hold out for a while. As for you, you're a complete liability, the kind that drags us down!"

"However, it's not entirely useless. If you resist, they might get excited, and if they have a heart condition or a stroke, they might have an attack on the spot..."

Ye Bai said with a sincere expression.

"You surnamed Ye, I'll fight you to the death!"

Qin Wanqing lost her temper again, this time she was about to go crazy with anger.

What do you mean by saying the more she resists, the more excited they get? Is that even human language?

"Young master, young master, I'm getting a little excited too..."

Shen Lu excitedly shouted from the side.

She didn't even hear what Ye Bai meant; she only knew that there was going to be another fight. This kind of thing was second only to food in its appeal to her.

"Stop fooling around, let's get down to business. If we finish quickly, we might be able to go out for a big meal!"

Ye Bai dodged Qin Wanqing's lunge and quickly said.

The Ye family is, after all, a prominent family in Jingzhou. The fact that they are being invited back for a family banquet in such a solemn manner means that the food must be of high quality.

"Work, work!"

Shen Lu was the first to respond and ran towards those villas.

A fight is coming up soon, and afterwards there's a big meal to eat. For her, this is simply the happiest thing in the world.

"Are you sure you want to stay here with us? What about the Ye family?"

Qin Wanqing was taken aback upon hearing this and asked in confusion.

"It's just a meal, nothing compared to you guys."

Ye Bai shook his head indifferently.

Qin Wanqing was his benefactor, and Shen Lu was his devoted follower; of course, he couldn't just stand by and watch them get into danger.

As for whether the Ye family would be unhappy because they were late or even stood them up, Ye Bai didn't even bother to think about it.

If the Ye family truly considered him a member of the family, they would only worry that something had happened to him if he missed the family banquet, and would never have any thoughts of blaming him.

If people are dissatisfied with him or find fault with him because of this, it only proves that he is not a member of the Ye family at all.

"You live off that mouth of yours! That's how you drugged Grandma!"

Qin Wanqing rolled her eyes and suddenly realized that this guy wasn't so bad after all.

And for no apparent reason, she remembered a saying: A man who truly cares about his family is a good man.

The fact that he values ​​her and Lulu's safety more than anything else shows that he still has some conscience.

It's just a bit rubbish!

……

Driven by the dual stimulation of a fight and a lavish meal, Shen Lu moved at an extremely fast pace.

With her short legs moving like she was riding on wheels of fire, she quickly took pictures of the house numbers of the three villas and sent them to Chu Qian.

Chu Qian was also extremely efficient, and within a few minutes she called Qin Wanqing.

These days, even playing a game requires real-name verification, let alone things like real estate.

If you know someone at the housing bureau, you can find the homeowner's information in the system in no time by looking up the house number.

What's baffling is that the names on the property deeds for these three villas are all unknown individuals, and all of them are women.

They all seem to come from ordinary backgrounds and have no special connections whatsoever.

But this is obviously very strange, because not to mention that an ordinary person simply cannot afford the villas here, even those millionaires or even billionaires can only sigh at the high prices of this upscale community.

Because the cheapest villa here costs at least five small dollars!

If you don't have billions in assets, don't even think about buying a house here!

Therefore, without a doubt, those three ordinary-looking female homeowners were either secret lovers kept by a wealthy man or had fabricated their identities.

Due to time constraints, Chu Qian could only find this much information.

This means that it is no longer possible to determine which home the Taoist master went to from the homeowner.

"Let's go. It seems we have no choice but to use the most primitive and cumbersome method: searching one by one."

Seeing Qin Wanqing's questioning gaze, Ye Bai shook his head helplessly.

Fortunately, there were only three targets. If there were thirty, Ye Bai estimated that he wouldn't even be able to afford a late-night snack, let alone dinner.

……

Ye Family Villa.

"Mom, look at the time. Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing clearly have no intention of coming. Are we going to wait like idiots?"

Ye Xuanyuan glanced at his watch and began to grumble impatiently.

He was never very patient to begin with, let alone waiting for Ye Bai and his wife, whom he looked down upon the most.

"Shut up! If you're hungry, go to the kitchen and eat by yourself! How old are you? Do you expect us to feed you?"

Yang Fenglan scolded him unhappily, then said, "It's not time yet. The Qin family manor and the Qin Group headquarters are far from here, and there might be traffic jams on the way. Besides, your sister and that Jiang Dawei haven't come back yet, so what's the rush!"

"Alright, alright, then we'll wait. But it's strange, why hasn't my sister come back yet after so long? What are she and my brother-in-law up to?"

Ye Xuanyuan didn't dare to talk back to Yang Fenglan. He didn't know why, but his mother, who used to dote on him, had become much more temperamental lately. It was best not to provoke her.

"...It's not even a hint of a deal yet, and you're already calling him brother-in-law. What benefits did David Chiang give you?"

Yang Fenglan glared at Ye Xuanyuan with annoyance.

When Ye Ruyan brought Jiang Dawei back to her family, she only said that he was a good friend.

However, David Chiang did not hide his feelings, stating that he was pursuing Ye Ruyan and wanted to marry her.

This trip back to China to visit the Ye family was also to seek the consent of the two elders.

When Ye Wentian heard this, he did not express his opinion. He simply said that his children were all grown up and that nowadays people value freedom of love, so they should make their own decisions.

Yang Fenglan was initially very happy, thinking that Ye Ruyan could finally get married, which was a great relief.

After all, being a single woman nearing thirty is a torment for any mother, both in thought and in sight.

However, Yang Fenglan soon felt that David Chiang might not be a good match.

This man is not only cunning and calculating, but he also always gives her the feeling that he has ulterior motives for wanting to marry Ye Ruyan.

Therefore, Yang Fenglan's opinion on this matter gradually changed from agreement to opposition.

But Ye Xuanyuan was different. He welcomed David Chiang's marriage to Ye Ruyan with open arms and even started calling him brother-in-law.

It seems that David Chiang told Ye Xuanyuan about his glorious achievements abroad and his extraordinary background, which immediately amazed Ye Xuanyuan.

If he weren't in a wheelchair, he probably would have immediately prostrated himself in worship.

"What's the benefit or the harm? It's just a matter of time! Do you want my sister to stay single forever? She'll be almost forty if she doesn't get married soon!"

Ye Xuanyuan's single sentence left Yang Fenglan speechless.

At this moment, Yang Guangyao, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said something.

"It seems Ruyan went to the Governor's Mansion..."
