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

What the hell is this level of thrift!

Is a high-class restaurant like Wangyouzhai really a place that doesn't need a little water?

Zhao Chengfeng cursed inwardly, but could only grit his teeth and sit back down, smiling as he said, "Mr. Ye is right. Since we're trying to save money, let's just wait and go later."

He had already witnessed how shameless Ye Bai could be.

The most crucial point is that he's a mentally unstable guy who's capable of anything.

Zhao Chengfeng was going to talk business with the person in charge of the stronghold, so naturally he couldn't bring Ye Bai along.

Even if his purpose in colluding with the assassin organization was to kill this adopted son of the Ye family.

In this matter, he had to distance himself from the situation and avoid arousing anyone's suspicion.

The severity of the crime of hiring someone to commit murder is something that elites who have graduated from prestigious universities are certainly aware of.

He even wanted to ensure that this matter had nothing to do with Ye Xuanyuan.

Otherwise, once that idiot gets caught, he'll definitely blame everything on him right away.

"Okay, I'll listen to Director Zhao. It'll be a good opportunity to exercise my sphincter muscles."

Ye Bai was naturally happy that Zhao Chengfeng wasn't going.

But after sitting down, he actually used several wet wipes to wipe his hands, looking disgusted.

This made Zhao Chengfeng so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. I didn't even mind your greasy hands rubbing against me, and you still complain that my clothes are dirty?

"Zhao Chengfeng is very likely colluding with Nanhuo Town, but for the current situation, this is actually a good thing..."

Ye Bai leaned closer to Qin Wanqing's pink earlobe and began to whisper.

Even the most inhuman killers in Nanhuo Town wouldn't normally kill their business partners.

Even assassin organizations value their reputation highly.

Therefore, as long as Zhao Chengfeng is in the private room, even if the assassins at the stronghold know that Qin Wanqing is there, they should not rush in to make a move.

What Ye Bai needs right now is time.

Once Qin Zhong and Qin Na confirm the assassins' locations, Ye Bai can eliminate them one by one.

He could actually go find them himself, but firstly, he didn't trust Qin Wanqing and Shen Lu, and secondly, it would be too much of a waste of time.

“I now strongly suspect that Zhao Chengfeng’s purpose in contacting the assassins in Nanhuo Town was to kill you! Look at the way he looks at you, he practically wants to devour you alive.”

Qin Wanqing was unaware that her teasing remark was actually the truth; it was merely a judgment based on Ye Bai's bullying of Zhao Chengfeng.

Not only did he use someone's expensive suit as a hand towel, but he also complained about it afterwards. This is beyond what a normal person would do; this guy is simply inhuman!

Not to mention that he had previously instigated Yang Renxiao to beat Zhao Chengfeng so badly that he was bruised and nearly disfigured.

"I'd love for all the assassins to come after me."

Ye Bai continued eating, completely ignoring Zhao Chengfeng's hatred.

Regardless of their purpose in coming here, the important thing is to keep them under our watchful eyes.

Guys like Zhao Chengfeng, who like to scheme against others in secret, all have one thing in common: they're afraid of dying.

No matter how ruthless someone is, they wouldn't risk their own life.

"You're just bragging! If you're really that powerful, why don't you take care of all the assassin organizations in the world? Let them kill innocent people indiscriminately?"

Qin Wanqing rolled her eyes at Ye Bai and immediately started to argue without warning.

"...I'm not some superhero protecting the world!"

Ye Bai almost choked to death. How did this sharp-tongued woman survive until now?

"Hehe, don't worry, I'll buy you a few pairs of red underwear so you can wear them outside from now on."

Qin Wanqing sneered and actually took out her phone to search.

"Why don't you buy a few lace ones too? I think you'll look really good in them."

Ye Bai leaned close to Qin Wanqing's ear again, breathing hot air and chuckling strangely.

"Get out of my way, you perverted freak!"

Queen Qin couldn't stand it, her crystal earlobes turned red, and she reached out and pinched Ye Bai's waist.

"Ouch... If you dare pinch me again, Qin, I'll crawl into your bed tonight!"

Ye Bai bared his teeth and issued a threat.

"Heh, I won't stoop to your level, you scoundrel."

Qin Wanqing's pretty face flushed again, and she indeed did not continue to make a move.

The Queen Qin, who is always invincible with her words, is most afraid of Ye Bai's lewd behavior.

After eating for a while, Ye Bai's phone rang; it was a message from Qin Zhong.

His team had already made a discovery; they had indeed found two unusual individuals.

Whether they are assassins from Nanhuo Town is uncertain for the time being, but what is certain is that these two are definitely skilled in martial arts, and probably have seen blood before.

His steps were steady, his fists were covered in calluses, and his gaze was extremely cold.

One of the men was the captain of the security team, and the other was the warehouse manager.

They all belong to the type who don't usually have to do anything, but whose status isn't low.

This led Ye Bai to instantly conclude that the other party was the assassin in this stronghold.

However, there are only two, which clearly doesn't match.

Although Jingzhou is not an international metropolis like Shanghai, it is by no means small.

The stronghold of Nanhuo Town here should have at least five or six people, even if the number is not in the double digits.

However, these two were only discovered by Qin Zhong; no news had yet come back from Qin Na.

In order to find the assassins as soon as possible, Qin Zhong and Qin Na did not act together, but split into two teams.

After knowing the approximate location of the target, Ye Bai did not let Qin Zhong continue searching, but instead sent him back to the private room.

Qin Zhong had originally asked them if they wanted to take action and capture the two men first, but Ye Bai did not agree.

Since they were just out for a meal today, and Ye Bai was with them, there weren't many Qin family bodyguards accompanying them.

Even including Qin Zhong and Qin Na, there are only six people.

Qin Zhong's team only had three people.

Although the two assassins were not located together, this meant that they would only need to deal with one at a time when making their move.

It's not that Ye Bai looks down on these Qin family bodyguards; in a three-on-one situation, the outcome is really hard to say.

It's important to know that assassins are best at fighting alone and finding the right moment to strike a fatal blow.

Unless Qin Zhong and his team can kill the opponent before they can react, it's uncertain who will survive.

When it comes to protecting people, three assassins might not be as good as one bodyguard from the Qin family.

But if it's murder, then it's probably the other way around.

Fortunately, Qin Zhong's personality has become more stable, and he greatly admires Ye Bai, his son-in-law. Although he was a little unhappy that he was not allowed to take action, he still obeyed the order and returned to the outside of the private room.

But Ye Bai didn't rush to take action; instead, he waited for Qin Na to send back a message.

With only Qin Zhong and two bodyguards, even with Ye Xuanyuan and Zhao Chengfeng as human shields, Ye Bai still couldn't leave with peace of mind.

Although Lulu should actually be added as well, Ye Bai, that little foodie, dared not count on her.

Not long after, Qin Na returned, but brought news that surprised Ye Bai...
