Xiao Ran seeing this, immediately stood up from the sofa and gently closed the office door.
Mu Qingying had also recently received the news that Ye Tong, who was standing right before them, was indeed Xu Mu's wife.
I have to say, this woman is very beautiful.
"Did Xu Mu tell you everything?"
Ye Chen wasn't surprised; that bastard only knew how to tattle.
"Shouldn't he have said it? You are my younger brother, yet you want to kill your brother-in-law. How do you expect me to face him from now on?"
Ye Tong's voice was piercingly cold.
Xiao Ran shook her head slightly by the door. Perhaps, only Ye Tong could speak to Ye Chen like this.
"Then don't face him."
Ye Chen sat on the sofa and said indifferently, "Xu Mu is not a good person."
"You keep saying he's not a good person, so tell me, what has he done wrong?"
Ye Tong questioned, "Are you implying that Little Yu and I are idiots who can't even tell who treats us well?"
"As your husband, Xu Mu is having affairs outside. This is something I cannot tolerate. Marrying you was a blessing he cultivated over three lifetimes, yet he doesn't cherish it. Therefore, he deserves to die."
Ye Chen had long thought of a countermeasure.
"Having an affair? With whom?"
Ye Tong asked, "Why didn't I know about this?"
"If you knew, would it still be considered having an affair?"
Ye Chen looked at Ye Tong. "Sister, everything I do is for your own good. He is not worth entrusting your life to."
"Who are you saying he had an affair with? Do you have proof?"
Ye Tong continued to press him.
It was too late for Ye Chen to find another woman to seduce Xu Mu now.
So, he could only use Meng Wanyue.
Both Ye Chen and Xiao Ran had always believed that Meng Wanyue was absolutely loyal.
And Xu Mu also knew that Meng Wanyue was previously Ye Chen's subordinate.
But Meng Wanyue had told Xu Mu that she wanted to break away from the Dragon King and follow him.
Afterward, under Meng Wanyue's deliberate displays of affection, Xu Mu became firmly convinced of this.
Xu Mu believed that it was his own charm that had conquered Meng Wanyue.
In reality, all of this was fake.
Ye Chen didn't believe that a killing machine like Meng Wanyue would truly follow Xu Mu.
What's more, Xiao Ran had been constantly testing her and told Ye Chen with great certainty that in Meng Wanyue's heart, she still only had one master: Ye Chen.
Ye Chen felt this was perfectly normal. What could Xu Mu possibly give Meng Wanyue?
He, on the other hand, had once given Meng Wanyue a martial arts technique.
However, this time, a crisis of trust would definitely arise in Xu Mu's heart regarding Meng Wanyue.
It would be better to squeeze out the last bit of value Meng Wanyue had by Xu Mu's side.
"Her name is Meng Wanyue, Xu Mu's secretary. I investigated this myself. As long as they are both at the company, Xu Mu will have intimate exchanges with this woman in his office."
Ye Chen said with a calm expression, "Meng Wanyue used to be my subordinate. It was precisely because of Xu Mu that she left me."
Ye Tong frowned. Could there really be such a convenient thing?
Wait, no!
She remembered Meng Wanyue. She was originally Ye Chen's subordinate, but was later moved by Xu Mu and became his person.
But according to what Xu Mu had said, Ye Chen still currently believed that Meng Wanyue becoming Xu Mu's person was just a disguise.
Fundamentally, Meng Wanyue still took orders from Ye Chen.
Therefore, Ye Chen was lying. He just wanted Meng Wanyue to cooperate with him to find an excuse to kill Xu Mu.
"Ye Chen! You are full of lies, and I will not forgive you!"
Ye Tong was completely disappointed in this so-called younger brother of hers.
He had changed; he had become somewhat terrifying.
After saying that, Ye Tong turned around and left.
Ye Chen didn't chase after her. Instead, he looked at Xiao Ran. "It seems she thinks Meng Wanyue is still my subordinate. In that case, would Xu Mu think the same?"
"I don't understand what the Dragon King means."
Xiao Ran shook her head slightly.
"What I mean is, could Xu Mu be turning my own trick against me? He knows Meng Wanyue is my subordinate and is intentionally putting on an act with her."
Ye Chen looked at Xiao Ran. "For instance, regarding this ruin expedition, he had already guessed that I had an ambush waiting inside, which is why he brought such powerful experts."
"This..."
Xiao Ran didn't know how to answer.
"Xiao Ran, tell me the truth. Whose subordinate is Meng Wanyue, really?"
Ye Chen stared at Xiao Ran and asked.
He had absolute trust in Xiao Ran. Back then, when Meng Wanyue and Xu Mu came to see Ye Chen together, her identity had already been exposed.
Originally, he had wanted to switch to another person to plant by Xu Mu's side.
But Xiao Ran had said to keep using Meng Wanyue.
Because prior to that, Xiao Ran had already made Meng Wanyue lay her cards on the table.
She personally told Xu Mu that she was Ye Chen's subordinate, sent to monitor whether Xu Mu treated Ye Tong and Ye Yu well.
The highest level of being an undercover agent is to voluntarily reveal one's identity.
This was to make Xu Mu believe that Meng Wanyue was holding nothing back from him.
Ye Chen had agreed, but now, he held a skeptical attitude toward Xiao Ran's words.
Xiao Ran also hadn't expected things to develop like this.
The reason she did that back then was simply because she saw that Meng Wanyue had become more human after following Xu Mu.
Therefore, she thought of letting Meng Wanyue continue following Xu Mu.
She thought that Ye Chen sending Meng Wanyue to Xu Mu's side was merely to monitor whether he treated Ye Tong well.
To put it plainly, it was just to protect Ye Tong, which wasn't a big deal.
Who could have thought that it would ultimately develop into Ye Chen wanting to kill his brother-in-law, Xu Mu?
Ye Chen glanced at Xiao Ran indifferently. "I am asking you a question."
"Dragon King, I don't know either."
Xiao Ran shook her head. "From the looks of it now, Xu Mu is not a stupid person. He might not have believed Meng Wanyue from the very beginning. Just as you said, he is turning your trick against you, intentionally keeping Meng Wanyue by his side."
"I'm such a fool! I naively thought that Xu Mu completely trusted Meng Wanyue and would die without knowing she was my subordinate."
Ye Chen shook his head. "To think he never believed her at all. Xiao Ran, do you admit your guilt? You clouded my judgment, otherwise, Xu Mu would have definitely died this time."
"Dragon King! I admit my guilt!"
Xiao Ran immediately dropped to one knee.
Ye Chen looked at Xiao Ran. He lowered his raised hand and took a deep breath. "Summon Meng Wanyue here."
"Yes."
Xiao Ran nodded, stood up, and left.
...
Xu Mu had already driven to the Guo family's company.
Recently, with Fang Chu's help, the alliance between the Guo and Chai families could be considered to be flourishing.
At the main entrance of the company, he dialed Guo Xiao's phone number.
Before long, Guo Xiao, wearing a tight-fitting pencil skirt and a uniform blouse, walked out of the company.
Xu Mu stood by the car and waved at her with a smile.
After Guo Xiao got into the car, her expression was somewhat helpless.
"What's wrong? Why the long face?"
Xu Mu asked with a smile after getting into the car.
"The security guards at the company gate are all Fang Chu's men. They saw me get into your car. Tonight, Fang Chu will probably cause trouble for me again."
Guo Xiao shook her head somewhat helplessly.
"What do you think of Fang Chu as a person?"
Xu Mu leaned back in his seat. "Regardless of everything else, the Guo family's status has been rising with the tide recently."
"I hate him, even more than before."
Guo Xiao complained, "At first, I didn't agree to this marriage. Later, after we got married, he didn't do anything, but at least I lived comfortably. But now..."
Speaking of this, tears began to fall from Guo Xiao's eyes.
Xu Mu asked gently, "What about now?"
"Now he has become a legendary ancient martial artist and has completely taken control of my family. If I say even the slightest thing wrong, he hits me, and he even hits my mom."
Guo Xiao wiped away her tears and said, "He threatened my mother's life. I simply didn't dare to divorce him."
"He even hit you?"
Xu Mu frowned slightly, then smiled. "He won't be doing that anymore."

ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.
