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

Half an hour later, Ye Bai's phone rang.

After the connection was established, Lu Sita's extremely respectful voice came from inside.

"Mr. Ye, they've all been knocked unconscious, five people in total... Do you really not need me to get rid of them completely?"

Ye Bai smiled and said, "No need, these people are still useful. You should go back first."

"Hmph, the son-in-law just doesn't believe me!"

Shen Lu, who had been listening intently for a long time, puffed out her little face, looking like a grumpy meat bun.

She had volunteered to deal with the men Wang Teng had sent to monitor Mi Qianqian outside the hospital, but her son-in-law wouldn't allow it and insisted on calling Lu Sita over instead.

It's no wonder the little girl, who's always been keen on fighting, couldn't be happy right now.

"Hehe, our Lulu is destined to become a top expert in the future. It would be too low of her to fight with those small fry."

Ye Bai smiled and ruffled Shen Lu's hair, coaxing her.

"Hmm, what the son-in-law said seems to make sense! This Lady Lulu disdains to teach a little minnow a lesson!"

The little girl squinted her big eyes and instantly became happy again.

Having a small brain has its advantages; one of them is that it's easy to coax someone.

After calming the silly girl down, Ye Bai picked up his phone again and called Yu Anqi.

It's best to hand over Wang Teng's men to the police.

He had previously asked Yu Anqi to investigate Wang Teng thoroughly, but the policewoman captain hadn't paid any attention. This time, she should be more careful.

Ye Bai didn't expect to get any useful information out of these people.

They were just a bunch of low-level thugs, their strength was only equivalent to that of ordinary bodyguards in wealthy families, they couldn't be considered experts at all.

If he had known they were all this kind of people, he wouldn't have even needed to call Lu Sita over; he could have just sent Shen Lu directly.

Those with less strength usually know less and are basically just following orders, unable to get any crucial information out of them.

"Alright, it's temporarily settled. But Wang Teng might not let it go. That guy is no good; he's a lecherous bastard! Now that he's got his eye on you, you have to be extra careful."

"Hmm, you two don't have many bodyguards around right now, and hiring more wouldn't be cost-effective. I think Qianqian, you could tell Li Fengyun and Cao Yuanhu about this. Since you're going to be sycophants, you should at least get them to do something to protect their masters..."

Ye Bai first gave Wang Teng a good dressing down, and then started to give Mi Qianqian some advice.

Since the eldest son of the Wang family wanted to use Mi Qianqian to incite a conflict between Li Fengyun and Cao Yuanhu, Ye Bai simply exposed the conspiracy, making both of the wealthy young masters hate Wang Teng completely.

A simp may seem cowardly, but that's only in front of a goddess! He'll bite back at anyone else!

Especially for those who want to harm the goddess, a simp can bite so hard that the other person will question their existence!

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Mi Qianqian hesitated.

She wouldn't say she hated Li Fengyun and Cao Yuanhu, but she was still quite annoyed by them, and usually wished they would stay far away from her.

But now I have to actively ask the other party for help, which is really a bit of a dilemma.

"Let them fight like dogs, and they won't bother you for a while, then you and your brother will be safe."

Ye Bai smiled and offered a word of comfort.

This girl is good in every way, except she's a bit too naive and innocent; she's not ruthless enough.

After handing over the plan to "let the dogs bite Wang Teng" to Mi Qianqian, Ye Bai didn't stay there any longer. He gave the two some instructions and then got up to leave.

Qin Wanqing had sent a message earlier saying that things were already finished on the other side.

……

"How did the talk with Fifth Uncle go?"

Once downstairs in the car, Ye Bai looked at Qin Wanqing and asked.

"It's alright, Fifth Uncle doesn't support letting Uncle come back either."

Qin Wanqing nodded.

Ye Bai was not surprised by this result; Qin Shengtu's ambition was no less than Qin Shengshui's.

In addition, they have been helping to take care of Xiao Taozi all this time, so Qin Laowu should feel indebted to them. The last reminder was proof of that.

While this favor is unlikely to secure Qin Shengtu's support for Qin Wanqing's rise to power, it is still possible to temporarily join forces to deal with Tian Hongyu, this "external enemy."

"Alright, tell me what you two were doing just now? Is Qianqian that fragrant? You miss her so much after just a few days?"

Qin Wanqing glared at Ye Bai and started being sarcastic again.

"...Thinking about you! Wang Teng has his eye on Mi Qianqian. Lulu and I helped him out a little, so we were delayed for a while."

Ye Bai rolled his eyes and briefly explained the situation.

Then she added, "Now I'm 100% sure, your childhood sweetheart is definitely no good. Tsk tsk tsk, look at your taste..."

Faced with Ye Bai's teasing, Qin Wanqing was not angry, but simply said: "Yeah, if I had good taste, would I have picked a scumbag like you?"

"..."

Ye Bai was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, Shen Lu covered her mouth and chuckled to herself. Although she shouldn't be so happy to see her son-in-law get the short end of the stick, she just couldn't help feeling happy.

"I won't peel shrimp for you anymore!"

Ye Bai had sharp eyes; Shen Lu's little tricks couldn't be hidden from him.

Sure enough, after hearing those words, the little girl could no longer be happy. She pouted and looked so wronged that she was about to cry.

It was clearly the young lady who bullied the young master, but the young master turned around and bullied her instead. Being a maid these days is too difficult.

"You scumbag! All you do is bully Lulu!"

Qin Wanqing tenderly patted Shen Lu's head, then glared angrily at Ye Bai.

The three of them joked around for a while before returning to the Qin family manor.

There was still some time before dinner, so Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing went back to their room first.

"How's the investigation of that 'fishing diary' going?"

While brewing tea, Ye Bai suddenly asked a question.

Tian Hongyu acquired Yang Tianju's shares, and Qin Shengshui suggested inviting him back. This move would be difficult for Qin Wanqing to resolve, even if she joined forces with Qin Shengtu.

In terms of connections and influence within the Qin Group's board of directors, Qin Laowu is far inferior to Qin Laosan.

Therefore, relying solely on Qin Shengtu is not enough to turn the tide; we need to come up with other solutions.

Ye Bai felt that the "fishing diary" might be a breakthrough point.

If evidence of Qin Shengshui's illegal business dealings can be found, the Qin Group's board of directors will be in an uproar even without alerting the police.

The Qin Group has been doing legitimate business all these years. If it were to be involved in illegal or irregular activities, it would be a fatal blow to the entire group!

Cutting off someone's source of income has always been an irreconcilable enmity!

Even if the directors of the Qin Group had a good relationship with Qin Shengshui, they would all want to kill him!

Forget about wanting to become the president by then, it'll be impossible for him to stay in the Qin Group!

Unfortunately, Ye Bai's plan was good, but it was difficult to realize.

Qin Wanqing shook her head and said, "Chu Qian hasn't found any clues yet."

Although the "fishing diary" includes the date, location, and even the amount of money, it is clearly not enough.

Qin Shengshui, a cunning and calculating man, is too good at erasing traces.

Otherwise, this diary probably wouldn't exist.

Qin Shengshui dared to write those things in his diary, so he wasn't afraid of being seen by others!

Just as Ye Bai was starting to feel a headache coming on, Yi Wenbo suddenly called.

He went straight to the point and asked, "Mr. Ye, I heard that Tian Hongyu is going back to the Qin Group?"
