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

"...What's gotten into you again? You're always so jumpy!"

Qin Wanqing was puzzled by Ye Bai's actions. She looked carefully at the plaque, then at the location sent by Tong Yan on her phone, and asked in confusion, "This is the place. I didn't go to the wrong place."

"I don't think this place has good feng shui. Why don't you tell Tong Yan that we should go somewhere else? I think that liangpi (cold skin noodles) shop on the food street is pretty good, delicious and inexpensive..."

Ye Bai pondered for a moment before speaking.

The name is "Wangyouzhai", the house is an old house, and the business is a restaurant. Any one of these three characteristics could be found in Jingzhou.

However, when all three factors are considered together, there is no way it's such a coincidence.

This Forget-Worry Studio is the secret stronghold of the Nanhuo Town assassin organization in Jingzhou!

Previously, because Jiang Nuai did not know the specific address, Ye Bai had not made any connection to that.

It wasn't until they saw the plaque that they realized they had followed Queen Qin to freeload and had stumbled upon it by sheer accident.

But if you say it's luck, then Qin Wanqing and Shen Lu happen to be here, plus Tong Yan.

Since it's a stronghold of an assassin organization, there must be at least a few assassins hiding here, even if the number isn't large.

If cold weapons were used, even if the number were increased tenfold, it wouldn't matter to Ye Bai.

But these killers are all true outlaws, and each of them may have a gun!

Protecting three girls from a group of armed killers is an incredibly difficult task.

Qin Wanqing and Shen Lu were in a better position, as they both had the amulets he had made, but no matter how magical those things were, they were only for one-time use.

Moreover, Tong Yan doesn't have such a thing on her body yet.

So even though some were eager to go in and capture all the assassins from Nanhuo Town, Ye Bai had no choice but to give up for now.

Catching the killer is far less important than ensuring the safety of those around you.

Moreover, he doesn't necessarily have to catch it himself.

If they simply change locations, they can drink and eat delicious food while waiting for the police to shut down their stronghold in Nanhuo Town.

Yu Anqi's desire to capture the assassin from Nanhuo Town was even stronger than his.

This is such a generous gift, I can't possibly refuse it.

Ye Bai's plan was good, but Qin Wanqing had no idea about it. Instead, she reached out her slender hand and gently touched Ye Bai's forehead, then asked in confusion, "That's strange, you don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"

Is it appropriate for a foodie to refuse a delicious meal that's right in front of them and instead insist on eating cold noodles?

"Um... I ate too much lamb skewers earlier, so I think it would be good to eat something light to cut through the grease! Lulu, don't you think so?"

Ye Bai could only come up with another excuse.

He wasn't intentionally trying to hide it from Qin Wanqing, but he was worried that if she heard this was an assassin organization's stronghold, she would immediately order the Qin family's bodyguards to come and fight it out.

Given Queen Qin's fiery temper, she was perfectly capable of doing such a thing.

The assassins from Nanhuo Town have already taken action against Qin Wanqing three times!

The first time, Queen Qin herself was almost in danger; the second time, Tong Yan was implicated; and the third time, the goal was to eliminate her, Ye Bai, Shen Lu, and Xiao Taozi all at once.

This relentless series of assassinations had long been fueling Qin Wanqing's anger.

Moreover, this was a woman with small breasts and an even smaller mind, so it was impossible to let it go so easily.

The assassins in Nanhuo Town were too well hidden, and the Qin family's intelligence department couldn't find them.

If the Queen of Qin were to let such a good opportunity slip by, she would not deserve the title of "Queen of Jingzhou".

The key issue is that even though the Qin family's bodyguards are well-trained, they cannot gain the upper hand against the assassins from Nanhuo Town.

Even though everyone is involved with guns, their purposes are completely different.

One was trying to protect people, the other was trying to kill!

It's estimated that none of the Qin family's bodyguards have actually killed anyone, but the assassins in Nanhuo Town, apart from outcasts like Jiang Nuai, are basically all covered in blood!

Once the two sides clash, although the Qin family's bodyguards have an absolute numerical advantage and may win, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties in the end.

If it were when he first came to the Qin family, Ye Bai definitely wouldn't have stopped them from doing this either.

Because at that time he didn't know those Qin family bodyguards at all, and had no connection with them whatsoever.

But things are different now. Qin Zhong, Qin Na, and others have worked for him a lot, calling him "son-in-law" and showing him genuine respect.

Ye Bai couldn't bear to watch these people get injured or even die.

"Miss, Miss, what the young master said makes sense. Why don't we go eat some cold noodles?"

Shen Lu was of course unaware of what was going on, but she noticed the look her son-in-law gave her, so she quickly nodded and obediently expressed her agreement.

"You guys... really want to eat liangpi (cold skin noodles)?"

Qin Wanqing looked suspicious. She subconsciously felt that something was going on, but she couldn't figure it out for the moment.

It's not that she's not smart enough, but rather that a foodie's thought process is clearly different from that of a normal person.

Especially since these two aren't just ordinary foodies; one's a bit off, and the other's definitely a genius.

"Yes, yes, I suddenly felt smug about that one bite."

Seeing that Qin Wanqing was showing signs of relenting, Ye Bai quickly nodded.

"Yes, yes, we're tired of eating too much meat and fish. My son-in-law said the cold noodles here are delicious!"

Shen Lu nodded repeatedly beside her, like a chick pecking at rice.

"...I'm really fed up with you two. You're giving up a fancy meal to eat that stuff that you don't even know is clean!"

Qin Wanqing sighed helplessly as she dialed the phone, saying, "I'll tell Yan Yan to cancel the reservation. You guys are really wasting Yan Yan's good intentions. Reservations here are very difficult to get!"

Although this was her first time here, she had heard of the reputation of "Wangyouzhai" before.

Although it looks unassuming from the outside, this is actually a very high-end private restaurant in Jingzhou.

Not only are the dishes delicious, but they also reportedly have homemade wine made with ancient recipes, which tastes even better than those so-called famous wines on the market.

That's why the business is so booming. But there are only a few private rooms, and they don't set up tables outside, so you have to make a reservation in advance if you want to eat here.

Without some luck and connections, it might take ten days or half a month to make an appointment.

From this perspective, it's clear that Tong Yan had been planning to invite them here for a while, and it wasn't a last-minute decision.

Otherwise, even if you know the owner here, you might not be able to free up a private room temporarily.

The people who can afford to eat here are all either rich or noble; there's no ordinary person like them. They're all people who don't care about money.

It's not so easy to get them to give up their private rooms to others for no reason.

"What? You're already in the private room...?"

As soon as the call connected, before Qin Wanqing could even say a few words, Ye Bai's face turned green.

Tong Yan is already here in the Forget-Worry Studio!
