Chapter 63 Night
The two men faced off, and the atmosphere remained tense for a long while.

Then Li Yubai suddenly smiled, his cool and aloof eyes carrying a hint of teasing:
"I am indeed no one to her, but how much better are you? In the end, we are just fleeting clouds in her eyes! As for whether we can eventually become someone to her, that depends on our own abilities. But if word gets to Madam Jiang that you are feeding her so much junk food, aren't you afraid of ruining your career advancement?"

Jiang Shu coughed lightly from the side: "It's just a few packets of spicy strips, it's not that serious!"

“Mr. Jiang, your health is my top priority.” Li Yubai said earnestly.

Feng Li scoffed: "With her strong body that could lift a cow with one hand, you're worried that a few bags of junk food will crush her?"

Li Yubai lowered his eyes: "Your Excellency is used to being selfish and self-serving, and is out of touch with human emotions. If you truly care about someone, you will feel anxious if that person suffers even a little bit of wind and rain; you will feel insecure if that person glances at someone else..."

"You betray me by saying I don't understand love? I'm making love with Master Jiang every day—" He paused, seemingly feeling that the idiom wasn't quite right here, and then changed the subject, "When I was eating instant noodles and spicy snacks with Master Jiang every day, her eyes shone with a bright light of love!"

Li Yubai: "...Are you sure the love in her eyes is for you and not for instant noodles and spicy snacks?"

Feng Li paused for a moment: "Think what you want. I'm not you. It's your business if you want to be cautious and anxious. I'm going to live a passionate and fulfilling life with Master Jiang. If you can't stand it, let's continue the fight! My fighter jets haven't entered the country yet, but I still have plenty of ways to bomb your Li Group headquarters..."

Li Yubai nodded: "If a dangerous individual like the FY heir were to die suddenly in Jiangcheng, I think I could give the FY conglomerate dozens of plausible reasons..."

Jiang Shu felt that as the head of the family, she should stand up when the conflict escalated. She positioned herself between the two men, with sound reasoning and evidence:
"What are you two fighting all the way from the US to Jiangcheng for? I may have a lot of charm as your sugar daddy, but I'm not worth fighting over. If you really want to settle things, then treat me better and better, and get yourself a place on my blacklist."

Both men looked at her at the same time.

Jiang Shu cleared her throat: "You must understand, in this family, pleasing this benefactor is the only way. All this fighting and killing will only result in mutual destruction, allowing Yan Yu and the others to reap the benefits behind the scenes. Is it worth it? Your disturbances in my household are also very bad for the fortunes of our family..."

Li Yubai's eyes showed a hint of helplessness.

Feng Li smiled in a cryptic way.

Jiang Shu blinked: "What's with those expressions? Am I wrong?"

Li Yubai grunted with a headache, "So you understand the principles."

Feng Li's eyes were cold, her tone tinged with resentment: "Since you know that having too many men will lead to unrest in the household, why did you keep provoking one after another? If only I had known back then that you were provoking more than just me—"

"How can you talk like that!" Jiang Shuyi retorted righteously. "We're talking business, not feelings. Have you ever seen a business that only has one customer?"

Neither man spoke, only staring at her silently, their gazes mirroring those of a wife on television trying to justify her husband's infidelity...

……

Just as tensions were about to rise, there was a knock at the door:
"Hello, this is Fengfeng Express. Is anyone home?"

Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief. "My package has arrived. Everyone, stop arguing and let's go take a look. We need it for tonight's live stream!"

After saying that, he was the first to run out.

The two men exchanged a glance, neither wanting to speak to the other anymore, and followed each other out.

This time, the packages were neither large nor numerous.

There was a thick document bag from Beijing, a watch gift bag from France, and an exquisite box from Shanghai that smelled of medicine.

Li Yubai glanced down at the sender's address: "Brother Jiang, I remember that fish in the group said he was going to send you some papers? Is this it?" He waved the file folder.

Jiang Shu thought for a moment and said, "It should be."

Feng Li's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of killing intent surging within them: "Yan Yu, the guy surnamed Li, and that fish are all in the capital, while Jile is in France. So, this courier from Shanghai—Brother Jiang, besides the five of us, have you recruited new people?"

Jiang Shu paused for a moment: "No. That's a girl I rescued from a human trafficker's den before. She's married and has children now! Don't be jealous of everything—although I feel like I'm actually quite popular with women."

The two men relaxed slightly. Since she was a woman, married with children, there was no need to pay attention to her!

Upon entering the house again, Jiang Shu first opened the file folder, which contained a design drawing and a villa sales contract. She asked Li Yubai curiously:
"Are these few pieces of paper really worth that many hundred million, just like Yu said?"

Li Yubai picked up the contract and flipped directly to the last page, where signatures and names were required.

There was an eerie silence.

Then, his tone became even more helpless: "So, Master Jiang's fish is... Ning Yunzhan?"

Feng Li suddenly turned around: "Which Ning Yunzhan?"

Li Yubai looked at him with a complicated expression: "The Ning Yunzhan you're thinking of."

Feng Li: "..."

Jiang Shu became curious: "You all know him?"

Li Yubai didn't answer, but gently reached out and ruffled Jiang Shu's hair, looking a little tired: "Why do you always get involved with such difficult people..."

Feng Li chuckled maliciously: "You've taken all five spots on the global wealth list, Mr. Jiang, you're really something!"

Jiang Shu keenly sensed that the atmosphere was not quite harmonious.

She quickly changed the subject: "Come on, take a look at these pills that I, your benefactor, have specially made for you. They're very expensive! Taking them will help you adapt to that fur space better. For someone like Ali, whose constitution is obviously weak, one pill is enough to restore 30% of your bodily functions—unfortunately, this medicine has resistance, so taking a second pill won't have any effect!"

“If it can restore his functions, then I’ll take it…” Li Yubai felt increasingly pressured by his official age disadvantage, “If I take it, will I become younger?”

“You can give it a try.” Jiang Shu stared at him for a while. “You’re already good-looking and have youthful skin! Why are you more concerned about your appearance than a girl?”

Li Yubai seemed amused by Jiang Shu's words: "Surrounded by wolves, there's nothing we can do."

Feng Li broke the warm atmosphere between the two: "Aren't we preparing for a live broadcast? I also have something to give to Master Jiang for resale..."

Magic City.

The leaders of the three major live streaming giants are currently having a meeting.

Nightshade, the top live streamer, joined the meeting with a solemn expression.

"Nightfall, tonight's live PK with the Puppet Man, you'd better give it your all. If you can defeat the Puppet Man, we'll allocate 80% of our resources for the next year to you."
