As soon as he walked into the office, he saw Bai Wanyi and Tang Yu together. His eyes instantly locked onto Tang Yu.

This bastard.

Why is he with Bai Wanyi?

Noticing Ye Chen's gaze, Tang Yu gave a dry cough, pretending not to see him.

[Why are you staring at me? Think I'm here to steal Bai Wanyi from you?]

[Damn stud horse, do you think all the beauties in the world are yours?]

Bai Wanyi raised an eyebrow and turned to glare at Tang Yu.

What is this guy mumbling about again?

Then she looked at Ye Chen and asked, "What's wrong? Are you here to file a report?"

"No."

Ye Chen's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and he smiled bitterly.

"I'm here to visit a friend of mine who's been arrested by you."

[Haha, one of my murderer friends.]

Tang Yu silently gloated from the side.

"Who is your friend?"

Upon hearing Tang Yu's inner thoughts, Bai Wanyi's slight goodwill toward Ye Chen vanished completely.

Hanging out with criminals, what else could he be but trash?

Seeing Bai Wanyi's cold gaze, Ye Chen felt like he was about to spit blood.

He said gloomily, "His name is Longya."

As a master of picking up girls, he naturally knew that today's actions were a big taboo, easily attracting Bai Wanyi's dislike.

But Longya was in trouble, and as the leader of the Dragon Soul organization, he couldn't just ignore it.

If this matter wasn't handled properly, Longya would be reincarnated.

How would the organization view him then?

Returning to China without accomplishing anything and sending a brother to serve Buddha first?

Sure enough, upon hearing the name Longya, Bai Wanyi's impression of Ye Chen plummeted to rock bottom.

She looked at Ye Chen with a hostile expression and said, "What's your relationship with him? He's currently a suspect."

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

"He's my employee, and I'm the boss of the Longchen Group."

Ye Chen had no choice but to reveal his identity.

Bai Wanyi, however, was not shocked by this. She wasn't interested in power or status.

Even if the emperor himself came, he would have to follow the rules.

She said coldly, "The nature of his crime is quite severe. No visits are allowed at the moment. You should go back."

Ye Chen became anxious upon hearing this.

He pointed at Tang Yu and said, "Officer Bai, let me explain. If Longya really committed a crime, I'd be the first to report him."

"But he's innocent in this matter. He just took over the Bright Moon Hotel a few days ago."

"The previous owner of the Bright Moon Hotel is this Young Master Tang. He's the one you should be arresting."

Tang Yu's eyes widened in confusion.

"What does this have to do with me? I wasn't involved. Officer Bai has already investigated, and I'm innocent."

[Damn it, what does this have to do with me?]

[Stupid Dragon King, don't you dare pin this on me. I didn't kill anyone at the hotel.]

[If anyone should be arrested, it should be you. You staying in this world only makes rice more expensive.]

[Damn, speaking of which, you and Longya are in cahoots. Bai Wanyi better not really help frame me.]

Upon hearing Tang Yu's inner thoughts, Bai Wanyi really wanted to punch this bastard.

What does he mean by her being in cahoots with him?

They had only just met, okay?

Framing an innocent person was something she would never do.

She angrily looked at Ye Chen and said, "I don't need you to teach me how to do my job. The current legal representative and person in charge of the hotel is Longya, so I arrested him."

"Since you're his boss, that means the Bright Moon Hotel is your property. Fine, you should also prepare to be investigated."

Ye Chen was so angry that his face turned green. What kind of logic was this?

To hide his identity, the legal representative and shareholders of the Longchen Group weren't him, okay?

If he hadn't chosen her to be part of his harem, Ye Chen would have wanted to teach her a lesson right then and there.

His woman only needed to obey him.

What use was integrity?

[What the hell, is this plot going off track?]

[Bai Wanyi seems to dislike him?]

[No, by now Ye Chen should have already won her favor.]

[He specifically caught a pickpocket to create their first meeting.]

[He even bought a bag of plastic bottles, saying he was helping an old lady who collects trash.]

[With these two moves, Bai Wanyi should be head over heels for him by now.]

[Haha, the plot must have collapsed again. Officer Bai, hurry up and arrest him.]

[Men like him belong in prison. It would be a shame if he didn't go in.]

Tang Yu was silently eating popcorn on the side, almost hoping the two would start fighting.

People have their joys and sorrows, and cows and horses add color to life.

Indeed, you have to use magic to defeat magic.

Bai Wanyi's eyes turned dark.

Even their initial encounter was orchestrated by this guy named Ye Chen?

This man was truly disgusting.

"Officer Bai, I'm willing to cooperate with your investigation. The innocent have nothing to fear."

"But the person you should really investigate is this Young Master Tang. I suspect he maliciously sold the hotel at a low price to frame my friend."

"The Bright Moon Hotel is valued at around 20 billion, but he sold it to Longya for 5 billion. That's the best evidence."

Ye Chen pointed at Tang Yu, speaking righteously while suppressing his anger.

[Damn, can you have some shame?]

[If it weren't for you sending Longya to mess up my hotel, would I have sold it so cheaply?]

[Speaking of which, Longya framing me with a murder, you have at least 89% of the blame, okay?]

Tang Yu was about to retort when Bai Wanyi cut him off.

"Can't someone have money? He bought the hotel to propose to his girlfriend."

Ye Chen started trembling with anger, feeling cold despite the hot weather.

He recalled the humiliating scene in the hotel that day.

Bai Wanyi snorted coldly, not wanting to say more to Ye Chen.

After listening to his inner thoughts for so long, she was convinced that Ye Chen was no good.

If he was connected to the hotel murder case, she wouldn't hesitate to arrest him herself.

She turned to Tang Yu and said gently, "Tang Yu, thank you for cooperating with the investigation today. It's late, you should go home and rest. I'll treat you to a meal next time."

After listening to his inner thoughts for so long, she was convinced that Tang Yu was innocent.

Moreover, he had emailed her the crime clues as soon as he found them.

What did this mean?

It meant he trusted her unconditionally! Otherwise, he wouldn't have handed over such important clues.

Being trusted was indeed a pleasant feeling.

"Huh?"

Tang Yu was bewildered.

[What the hell, what's going on? Why are you suddenly so gentle with me?]

[Stop it, don't be so nice to me.]

[This isn't like you, calm down, where's your temper?]

On the side, Ye Chen's forehead veins were bulging.

Bai Wanyi, how could she be so gentle with this guy?

And so cold to him, as if he were an enemy?

He stared at Tang Yu with venomous eyes, filled with hatred.

At this moment, the office door was pushed open from the outside.

A stunningly beautiful woman walked in, followed by bodyguards and lawyers.

It was none other than Su Muyue.

Seeing Su Muyue walk in, Ye Chen's anger instantly dissipated, and he even felt a bit touched.

This girl, always saying she wanted to stay away from him.

But when he was in trouble, she still came.

No wonder he had his eyes on her.

He smiled wickedly and said, "Muyue, you came..."

"Are you alright?"

Before he could finish, Su Muyue walked up to Tang Yu and asked softly with concern.
