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

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, including Ye Bai.

He never expected Ye Ruyan to suddenly pull such a stunt.

It should be noted that the right side of the main seat in the Ye family has always belonged to Yang Fenglan, and that will never change.

Now that Ye Ruyan is sitting in the main seat and has invited Ye Bai to sit next to her, he can only sit to the left of the main seat!

This position originally belonged to Ye Xuanyuan!

According to the Chinese custom of respecting the left hand, the person who sits to the left of the head of the family is usually the undisputed second-in-command of the family.

If he is a junior, then he will be the future heir to the family headship!

So, not only did Ye Ruyan take the main seat, but she also made Ye Bai sit in this sensitive position, which caused considerable shock.

Ye Xuanyuan was completely stunned. After regaining his senses, he hurriedly said, "Sister, you want my brother-in-law to sit over there, right?"

The reason he didn't sit back in his original seat right away was because he wanted to leave it for David Chiang.

Being a sycophant is a skill; sometimes you can't do it intentionally, but you have to guess what they're thinking.

Ye Xuanyuan has now gained some experience, and what he needs to do is to create as many opportunities as possible for David Chiang to win over Ye Ruyan as soon as possible.

Only in this way can his status as the brother-in-law be confirmed.

So regardless of whether Ye Ruyan called the wrong person just now, he had to bring it up with David Chiang to avoid embarrassing the other party.

Others reacted in different ways.

Yang Fenglan and her brother Yang Guangyao were both somewhat confused, but Jiang Dawei seemed to have thought of something, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

As for Qin Wanqing, she glanced at Ye Ruyan, then at Ye Bai, a playful look appearing on her lips.

"Who I tell to sit is none of your business!"

To everyone's surprise, upon hearing Ye Xuanyuan's words, Ye Ruyan coldly snorted in rebuttal, then looked at Ye Bai with a frown and said, "What? You've become disobedient since I haven't been back for the past few years, Xiao Bai?"

"Listen to me, listen to me, you must listen to me!"

Ye Bai was startled by Ye Ruyan's gaze and quickly nodded and sat down.

Only after sitting down did he realize that he was no longer the little kid who was easily bullied by Ye Ruyan ten years ago.

Psychological trauma can really last forever.

But having already sat down, Ye Bai was too lazy to move to another place.

He was also curious about what kind of trouble Ye Ruyan was trying to cause by suddenly pulling this stunt.

To make Ye Xuanyuan and Jiang Dawei hate him? But even if Ye Ruyan didn't do this, would those two still be friends with him?

From the moment he stepped out of the Ye family's gates and into the Qin family manor, deciding to become the Qin family's son-in-law, there was no room for reconciliation between him and Ye Xuanyuan.

As for David Chiang... Ye Bai wasn't really familiar with him, so there was no need for him to care about what the other person thought.

Moreover, Ye Xuanyuan calls him "brother-in-law" so affectionately that the two of them will have to stand on the same side sooner or later.

What does it matter whether I offend them or not?

When Ye Ruyan saw that Ye Bai was indeed calling out to, and Ye Bai actually sat down, Yang Fenglan and Yang Guangyao, the siblings, began to look at each other, both feeling a sense of foreboding.

Today's family dinner has clearly begun to veer off course in an unknown direction.

The most crucial issue is that Ye Wentian, the patriarch who can keep everyone in check, is not at home. That is the biggest problem.

Otherwise, with Ye Wentian around, neither Ye Ruyan nor Ye Xuanyuan would dare to cause any trouble.

Ip Man-tin was known for his strictness towards his children.

Whether it's Ye Ruyan or Ye Xuanyuan, if they make a mistake, they can really be whipped with a stick.

They treated Ye Bai better, at most giving him a scolding.

Of course, this is also because Ye Bai was very obedient when he was a child.

While Yang Fenglan and Yang Guangyao were worried, Ye Xuanyuan was completely furious and started shouting angrily.

"Sis, have you gone mad from being abroad? Who is Ye Bai? Does he even have the right to sit there?"

If Ye Xuanyuan were to offer his seat to David Chiang, he wouldn't say a word; instead, he would eagerly wipe the chair with his sleeve for the other man.

Because he might need the other person's help in the future, it's definitely a good idea to build a good relationship with them; this is a scarce network of connections.

But what virtues or abilities does Ye Bai, merely an adopted son of the Ye family, possess?

"Ye Xuanyuan, have you been asking for trouble lately? Do I need you to criticize me for what I do?"

Ye Ruyan gave Ye Xuanyuan a cold look, which startled him so much that he almost fell off his wheelchair.

When he was a child, he was never beaten by Ye Ruyan; he always cried his eyes out.

"Forget it, Xuanyuan. It's just a seat, it doesn't matter who sits on it. Besides, Ruyan hasn't been back for so many years, it's only right that she wants to chat with her brother more."

David Chiang did not react; instead, a warm smile appeared on his handsome face, suggesting he was a very magnanimous person.

At least, that's how it seems.

"Then I'll sit next to Ye Bai."

Qin Wanqing sat down on the chair next to Ye Bai with a smile, then reached out her jade hand and discreetly reached for his waist, before giving it a sharp twist.

She may feign magnanimity, but she truly believes in revenge.

She had no idea how Ye Bai and Ye Ruyan had gotten along before, but she felt that the relationship between the two siblings was somewhat abnormal.

On the way here, she asked Ye Bai many questions about Ye Ruyan, but this scumbag kept rambling and wouldn't give a straight answer.

Generally, there is only one reason why a man behaves this way.

That means you have a guilty conscience!

If Ye Bai and Ye Ruyan were siblings, Qin Wanqing definitely wouldn't think much of it.

However, the relationship between sworn siblings is hard to say. Look at Zhu Jiuyou, the adopted son of the Zhu family, who has always harbored improper thoughts about Zhu Daji.

In terms of sheer scumbag status, Zhu Jiuyou isn't even worthy of carrying Ye Bai's shoes.

A scumbag and a beautiful woman, with no blood relation, who grew up together since childhood—isn't that a classic childhood sweetheart pairing?

As for Ye Ruyan being three years older than Ye Bai, it had absolutely no impact.

The saying "A woman three years older than her husband is like a gold brick" is an old saying passed down from our ancestors.

Realizing this, Qin Wanqing was already showing mercy by only pinching Ye Zha Nan's waist.

It's just that there are too many people here, and they're all outsiders, otherwise she would have just started kissing them.

Using your mouth is more comfortable than using your hands; this is an age-old truth.

"hiss……"

Ye Bai gasped in pain, wondering if it was just his imagination, but Queen Qin seemed to be getting more and more skilled at pinching his waist.

Not only was the force more ferocious, but most importantly, the positioning was extremely accurate.

You can pinch the spot that hurts the most.

"Little Bai, what's with that grimacing? Don't you want to sit next to me? Or are you saying you've grown up and don't see me as your older sister anymore?"

Seeing the change in Ye Bai's expression, Ye Ruyan frowned slightly and snorted unhappily.
