The video spread faster than the most severe flu, instantly sparking a huge online discussion.

"Holy crap, I've never seen anyone this stupid. How did the Liu family, father and son, become such a wealthy family?"

"Yeah, if all the big families are like this, then I think I could do it too!"

"By the way, did you guys hear that? Liu Qingshan seemed to say that he has Grand Commandant Hong behind him. Is this Grand Commandant Hong the one I'm thinking of?"

"That's right. I never expected that someone as important as Grand Commandant Hong would have someone deal with a small jeweler. It's really beneath him."

"Not necessarily. It's possible that Grand Commandant Hong is unaware of this matter."

In any case, after this incident, Grand Commandant Hong, who had been hiding in the background, has now come into the public eye.

When Grand Marshal Hong saw this scene in Longdu, he was so angry that he fainted.

The last order he gave before he passed away was...

"Immediately send that pair of idiots, father and son, back to jail, and make sure they never have a chance to get out again."

"Hahaha...I'm dying of laughter, this is absolutely hilarious!"

In another luxurious mansion in Longdu, watching the images on television, Grand Tutor Yan almost laughed out of his few remaining teeth.

It's true that he had suffered many setbacks in Jiangnan Province before, but never before had he been as humiliated as Grand Commandant Hong was this time.

Grand Tutor Yan felt very happy when he recalled the words that Grand Commandant Hong had used to mock him.

Secretary Ma chuckled and said, "Grand Tutor, it seems Grand Commandant Hong's plan has failed. Did you notice? That idiot from the Ye family was also there. I now strongly suspect that he wasn't an idiot at all, but was just pretending."

"Yes, I think so too." Grand Tutor Yan nodded.

He then said to Secretary Ma, "I have a feeling that Hong Chunlei's plan to target the Ye family in Jiangnan Province will most likely fail. If we want to deal with the Ye family, we'll have to rely on ourselves."

"But Grand Tutor, we have almost no one left to use!"

With Xueying dead and Lanyao having escaped, Grand Tutor Yan's two most capable henchmen were truly out of options.

"Hehe, the Ye family has grown up now and is not something we can deal with on our own. If we want to deal with the Ye family, we will have to wait and see what happens during Zhong Shengzi's trip to Jiangnan."

What we need to do now is to be conservative, conservative, and even more conservative; we absolutely cannot be as overconfident as we were before.

Secretary Ma asked疑惑地问道, "Grand Tutor, what do you mean?"

Grand Tutor Yan pondered for a moment, then instructed him, "How's your contact with the Wang family in Jiangnan Province going?"

Secretary Ma said, "Everything has been arranged. The eldest son of the Wang family has a minor official position, and I have directly promoted him to the head of his unit."

"Alright, make sure they do a good job of receiving Master Zhong. They can only act if Master Zhong wants to deal with the Ye family; otherwise, they absolutely cannot make a move, understand?"

Having learned from Grand Commandant Hong's example and his own many painful lessons, Grand Tutor Yan is now frighteningly cautious.

Lin'an, Jiangnan Province.

The Liu family father and son were taken away, and the exchange meeting officially began.

King Mingrui gave Ye Chen a wink and quickly walked out of the hall.

Seeing this, Ye Chen said to Tang Shanshan, "Sister Shan, it's too noisy here. Why don't you come out and play with me?"

"Okay, let's go."

Tang Shanshan was thoroughly annoyed by those who begged her to make an exception for them, and simply pulled Ye Chen away.

They came to the end of the corridor and saw an open door. King Mingrui was inside, smiling and greeting them.

"Big brother, I've missed you so much!"

Tang Shanshan led Ye Chen inside, and just as she was about to greet him, she saw King Mingrui rush up and hug Ye Chen tightly.

"What... what's going on?"

Tang Shanshan was completely dumbfounded.

Does Ye Chen actually know King Mingrui?

"Brother, where have you been all these years? I've had people looking for you, but we can't find you. Do you know how much I miss you?"

In front of Ye Chen, King Mingrui transformed into a vulnerable child, tearfully expressing his longing.

"Alright, alright, I'm right here. What's with all the crying, you grown man? Hold back your tears."

Seeing the interaction between the two, Tang Shanshan was completely shocked.

It was at this moment that she finally understood the irrationality of what had happened today and what the reason was.

From beginning to end, neither the Liu family father and son nor the guests present knew one important piece of information: Ye Chen knew King Mingrui, and they had an extremely good relationship.

It turns out, her thighs are much more useful than those of the Liu family father and son!

Seeing Ye Chen chatting and laughing with King Mingrui, Tang Shanshan was quite surprised. Could it be that Ye Chen's stupidity was just an act?

Actually, he was always very clear-headed.

If that's the case, then all my actions these past few days—kissing and hugging him—have been...

Just thinking about these things makes Tang Shanshan's face turn bright red; she's so shy.

At the same time, his mind raced with even more thoughts.

Ye Chen exchanged a few words with King Mingrui, then introduced himself with a smile.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is my wife's best friend. I'll have to ask you to take good care of her in the future."

"So you're my sister-in-law's best friend? Miss Tang is so beautiful, and you two seem to get along very well. Why don't you marry Miss Tang too?"

In Myanmar, it is customary for men to have multiple wives, so they are very open about this and say whatever comes to mind.

King Mingrui did the same, directly expressing his true feelings.

"this......"

Ye Chen looked embarrassed, while Tang Shanshan's face turned as red as an apple.

Seeing this, Mingrui realized he might have said something wrong, so he quickly smiled and went up to greet Tang Shanshan to ease the awkwardness.

"Hello, Miss Tang. Let's get to know each other again. I'm Brother Ye Chen's underling."

"What... what's going on?"

Tang Shanshan reached out and shook hands with Mingrui, looking puzzled.

"Hehe, my brother saved my life back in Myanmar, so we became sworn brothers."

"I see."

Tang Shanshan nodded, wisely refraining from asking about the details.

Ye Chen only revealed his relationship with Mingrui at this point in order to keep it a secret from outsiders.

He must have his reasons for doing this; she wouldn't ask questions she shouldn't.

Moreover, Ye Chen wasn't actually stupid, so she didn't ask any further questions and even pretended not to have noticed.

Because only a simple-minded little fool who needs someone to take care of him can get close to her, while the peerless genius of the Great Xia Dynasty is too far away from her.
