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

"Southfire Town? Isn't that the infamous assassin organization?"

Ye Xuanyuan frowned. After all, he was a genuine young master from a wealthy family, and he had heard of the reputation of Nanhuo Town.

“Young Master Ye, what does the reputation of Nanhuo Town have to do with us? As long as they are willing to pay for their services and can get things done, that’s enough.”

Zhao Chengfeng smiled and shook his head, but a hint of disdain flashed almost imperceptibly in his eyes.

This young master of the Ye family is truly a complete waste. He usually does despicable things, yet he looks down on the assassin organization.

If this guy had even a tenth of the skill of those assassin organizations, they wouldn't need to spend so much money to cooperate with them.

"You want to hire an assassin to kill Ye Bai?"

Ye Xuanyuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested.

He really didn't want to get involved with the assassin organization, but if he could kill Ye Bai, everything would be a different story.

As time went on, the eldest son of the Ye family's hatred for Ye Bai showed no signs of abating; on the contrary, it intensified.

Especially after the last Ye family banquet, when Ye Xuanyuan saw Ye Bai sitting in his original seat, he was so angry that he almost exploded.

Although he knew very well that Ye Bai could never threaten his position as the rightful heir of the Ye family, he was still extremely unhappy.

He became even more insanely jealous after seeing how affectionate the other person and Qin Wanqing looked.

He didn't have the guts to kill Ye Bai himself, but he would be happy to do it if someone was willing to do it for him.

"Young Master Ye has misunderstood. It was Ye Bai who provoked Nanhuo Town, and they just want revenge. However, the people from Nanhuo Town are unfamiliar with Jingzhou, and funding is a big problem. They're looking for some kind-hearted people to 'sponsor' them..."

Zhao Chengfeng smiled and shook his head, denying that he intended to hire someone to kill him.

Although he and Ye Xuanyuan have always had a good relationship and now share a common enemy, they still need to be wary of each other.

If Ye Xuanyuan had a recording device on him or had his phone recording function, every word he said could easily become evidence in a crime.

"Just name your price!"

Ye Xuanyuan didn't have many tricks up his sleeve, nor did he bother playing word games with Zhao Chengfeng. He only cared about how much it would cost to get this done.

Zhao Chengfeng didn't speak, but simply made a "two" gesture with his hand.

"Two million?"

Ye Xuanyuan frowned, not because he thought it was too expensive, but because he felt it was too cheap.

According to the theory that you get what you pay for, an assassin worth only two million can't be that strong.

"Add another zero at the end..."

Zhao Chengfeng took a sip of beer and said with a smile.

"Hmm, that's more like it."

Ye Xuanyuan was satisfied and nodded without hesitation, "Deal!"

Although 20 million is not a small sum of money, Ye Xuanyuan felt it was worth it if it could bring Ye Bai's permanent disappearance.

Congratulations, Young Master Ye!

Zhao Chengfeng raised his glass with a smile, unable to hide the joy in his eyes.

It wasn't just because he also wanted Ye Bai dead; more importantly, the assassins in Nanhuo Town only needed ten million, and he could make a net profit of half of that by reselling the deal!

He wasn't one of those wealthy and powerful scions; on the contrary, he came from a very ordinary background.

Although I earned a lot as a senior executive in the Qin Group over the years, it was nowhere near as lucrative as it is now.

“I can pay for this, but I need to see the person in person.”

After drinking a glass of wine, Ye Xuanyuan suddenly spoke.

He wasn't very smart, but he wasn't really stupid either.

Especially during this period, I experienced a lot of bad luck, but I also grew a bit.

He's smart enough to not act without seeing the benefits.

Of course, the key issue was that he didn't really trust Zhao Chengfeng.

"This one……"

Zhao Chengfeng's smile froze, and he began to hesitate.

Seeing this, Ye Xuanyuan snorted coldly, "What? Is there a problem?"

Zhao Chengfeng said helplessly, "Meeting them is definitely not a problem, but as you know, Young Master Ye, those people are not easy to deal with, and they are very suspicious. If you want to see them, you can only go to their territory..."

Ye Xuanyuan scoffed, "I thought it was some kind of trouble. Let them go to their territory. What are they? A bunch of shady assassins? They dare to harm me?"

……

"You're saying there's a secret outpost in Nanhuo Town right here in Jingzhou?"

After listening to Jiang Nuai whisper the information she knew, Ye Bai immediately became interested.

He had only asked casually before, after all, Jiang Nuai had defected from the training camp and had never worked as a real assassin, so her information was definitely limited.

Unexpectedly, there was an even greater surprise.

"I...I found out by accident, but...but I'm not sure if it's true..."

When Jiang Nuai gets nervous, she starts to stutter. Fortunately, she is quite familiar with Ye Bai, so she doesn't hang her head down like before, with her chin almost tucked into her chest.

"It's okay. Just tell me the address, and we can find out if it's true or not by going there."

Ye Bai said with a smile.

Jiang Nuai was afraid of being discovered by Nanhuo Town, so she never went to look for the suspected stronghold, but it was not difficult for Ye Bai to confirm such a thing.

……

"You really do spend the whole day out partying these days! Is it that fun out there that you're so engrossed in it that you don't want to leave?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, aren't Mi Qianqian's legs long? Are they the kind that outlive you? They feel amazing, you could play with them for a year and never get tired of them?"

As soon as Ye Bai and Shen Lu arrived at the Qin Group headquarters office, Qin Wanqing couldn't help but start being sarcastic in her usual way.

She knew that Ye Bai was going to the hospital to deliver medicine to Mi Zizhen, but even if she finished feeding it, it wouldn't take too long.

Especially since the city hospital is not far from here.

It was almost time for her to get off work, and this wild man had only just returned. Qin Wanqing simply didn't believe he hadn't done anything in between.

She clearly remembered that the person lying in the hospital right now wasn't just Mi Zizhen, but also the long-legged model Mi Qianqian, who was so beautiful that all men would be infatuated with her!

First, a hero saves the damsel in distress, then someone accompanies her to her hospital bedside—what a scene…

Upon realizing this, Qin Wanqing couldn't help but glare at Shen Lu, who was hanging her head and pretending to be a quail.

Originally, the purpose of having this little girl follow Ye Bai was to act as an informant, to keep an eye on this slutty and shameless man as he flirted with other women everywhere.

Now things have gotten really bad. In order to please her son-in-law, this girl not only fails to report her whereabouts in a timely manner, but sometimes she even colludes with him, and the two of them work together to fool her.

Qin Wanqing has now fully experienced what it means for a daughter to grow up and leave home, and for her to turn her back on her husband.

But this silly girl was still her precious treasure, and she couldn't bear to scold her, so in the end she could only vent her frustration on Ye Bai, the culprit.

"Hmm, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Ye Bai suddenly asked.

"What do you mean? You, surnamed Ye, are you trying to lie to me?"

Queen Qin immediately flew into a rage.
