After being imprisoned in a women's prison for five years, I became a master of both medicine a

Not long after Ye Chen and the four women, Qin Yu, Nangong Qian, Zhao Bailu, and Xu Jiali, sat down in the tea room, Jia Kehu called to apologize.

"Young Master Ye, I am truly sorry. It was my oversight that allowed this traitor, Ma Zhong, to offend you. I have already led my men to arrest this scoundrel, and he is at your disposal."

In addition, the interrogation of the three Qi Refining Masters who assassinated Elder Jin at the airport has concluded, and I would like to report the results to you in person.

Ye Chen had no interest whatsoever in how to deal with Ma Zhong.

However, he was interested in hearing the testimonies of the three Qi Refining Masters, as he might gain some new insights.

Thinking of this, he stood up and said to Qin Yu.

"Sister Qin, I need to pee."

"Okay...okay, I'll take you there."

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment before blushing and speaking.

Although Ye Chen only had the mental capacity of a six-year-old, he was still an adult, and his words made the women somewhat embarrassed.

Zhao Silu and Xu Jiali's pretty faces also turned slightly red.

Just then, Nangong Qian stood up and smiled.

"The restroom is quite far from here, so I'll take Young Master Ye there."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Pavilion Master," Qin Yu said gratefully.

After entering the restroom, Ye Chen flipped over and jumped out of the third-floor window.

"Young Master Ye."

Jia Kehu looked around nervously before jogging over to him.

"Ma Zhong, you handle this as you see fit. What did those three Qi Refining Masters confess?"

Jia Kehu didn't dare to ramble on and directly reported the interrogation results to Ye Chen.

"According to my subordinates' interrogation, the three Qi Refining Masters were instructed by the Nangong family of the provincial capital to cause trouble for Elder Jin and try to intimidate him into returning to Longdu."

His expression turned serious as he said this.

"They also said that Nangong Qi, the eldest son of the Nangong family, will arrive in Jiangcheng today. As for his purpose, it is unclear, but I think he is definitely going to cause trouble."

"So the Nangong family has also jumped in? Very good."

Ye Chen's eyes turned cold. "Nangong Qi, is it? Since you've come to Jiangcheng, then stay forever."

He then asked, "Were those assassins from Japan also sent by the Nangong family?"

Jia Kehu pondered, "They said they hadn't seen those people before. Based on my deduction, they shouldn't be from the Nangong family."

The Nangong family received orders from Longdu to create as much trouble and intimidation as possible for Elder Jin, so that he would return to Longdu on his own initiative.

But those cherry blossom dogs clearly intend to kill Mr. Jin and you.

"Okay, I understand. Take your men to the Gu Group immediately and protect it."

With Jin Daorong in charge of the Ye family, Ye Chen wasn't worried. If Nangong Qi really wanted to cause trouble, he would most likely start with the Gu Group.

He was afraid that this grandson would harm his wife.

"Alright, I'll take the men there right away."

Jia Kehu agreed and quickly left.

Ye Chen lightly touched the ground with his toes, and then jumped into the toilet through the third-floor window.

He washed his hands and walked out of the restroom.

Nangong Qian was still waiting outside, but instead of her ever-present signature smile, her face was serious.

Before Ye Chen could speak, she suddenly knelt down in front of him with a thud.

Ye Chen was slightly surprised and quickly reached out to help.

"Oh dear, Sister Nangong, you've fallen! Let me help you up."

Nangong Qian knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him three times with great solemnity.

"Young Master Ye, I want to pledge allegiance to you and the Ye family. Please help me kill Nangong Qi and wipe out the entire Nangong family."

Nangong Qian? Nangong Qi?

Upon learning her name, Ye Chen connected the two, as the surname Nangong is relatively uncommon.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Qian really was a member of the Nangong family.

However, judging from her appearance, she seems to have some deep-seated hatred towards the Nangong family.

"Is Nangong Qi a bad person? Why does my sister want to kill him? Murder is so scary."

Ye Chen pretended to be clueless, wanting to hear Nangong Qian's explanation.

Just now at the entrance of Dewuxuan, Ye Chen's actions seemed silly, but he not only saved Zhao Bailu, but also exposed Ma Zhong's conspiracy to replace the emerald with a fake.

Everything seemed like a coincidence, but in reality, it was the result of meticulous and profound thinking.

In other words, he remained conscious throughout.

Nangong Qian was an extremely intelligent woman, and she quickly understood the meaning behind Ye Chen's words: he wanted a reason to accept her as a ally and help her deal with the Nangong family.

Whether she can latch onto Ye Chen's powerful backer depends on her performance.

With that in mind, she focused on the key point.

"My past conflict with the Nangong family is not important. What is important is that I have received news that Nangong Qi has arrived in Jiangcheng and is preparing to cause trouble for the Gu Group."

"But this young lady can thwart his plans in the end. I urge Young Master Ye to wait and see."

Ye Chen wanted to ask her what her plans were.

But saying too much would reveal that he has already come to his senses.

What if Nangong Qian is a pawn planted by the Nangong family to investigate his true strength?

Regarding Nangong Qian's defection, he would have Li Muling conduct a background check on the woman to see if her pledge of allegiance was genuine before making any further consideration.

"Oh no, someone is trying to bully Ningning! I have to go protect her right now!"

Ye Chen looked very anxious and immediately ran towards the tea room.

Nangong Qian had no choice but to follow behind.

She knew that Ye Chen wouldn't agree to her request based on her words alone, which further proved that he wasn't stupid.

The two returned to the tea room, where Qin Yu had already selected two paintings and calligraphic works from the antiques that Manager Zhao had brought.

At this moment, three women were sitting in the tea room chatting animatedly, seemingly complaining about someone.

"I don't know what my grandma was thinking, she actually made me marry a convict, so I secretly ran away."

She sighed heavily as she said this.

"Who knew the outside world was so dangerous? We were scammed as soon as we arrived in Jiangcheng."

Qin Yu nodded seriously, as if she had found a kindred spirit.

"Have you seen that convict? What does he look like? I'd like to hear if it's possible he's the same person as my ex-fiancé?"

Zhao Bailu shook her head. "But he's a big liar. It might really be the same person. Sister Qin, have you met him?"

Qin Yu curled her lip, revealing a disdainful expression.

"That guy is a complete pervert. Even after I broke off the engagement, he shamelessly wouldn't give up and actually started stalking me."

"Hiss, encountering this kind of guy is really troublesome." Zhao Bailu nodded her little head.

"As for his appearance, to be honest, he looks remarkably like Ah Chen."

Just as Qin Yu finished speaking, Ye Chen walked in.

She immediately stood up and hugged his arm, saying with some pride, "Of course, that convict is no match for Ah Chen at all, after all, Ah Chen is so cute."

"Of course! Young Master Ye is gentle, kind, and handsome. If he were my fiancé, why would I need to run away from the wedding?" Zhao Bailu wholeheartedly agreed.

Hearing the two women's words, Ye Chen's lips twitched incessantly.

He really wanted to shout to those two silly girls, "Is there any possibility that your ex-convict fiancé is actually me?!"

However, he didn't forget what he had to do, and anxiously tugged at Qin Yu's arm.

"Sister Qin, let's go find Ningning's wife quickly, someone is trying to bully her."

Qin Yu was stunned. In Jiangcheng, who else would dare to bully Gu Ning?

Knowing that Ye Chen couldn't speak much, Nangong Qian, who had followed in, took the initiative to speak.

"I just received news..."

After hearing Nangong Qian's account, Qin Yu flew into a rage.

"These damn bastards, are they never going to stop?"

Just as she was about to leave with Ye Chen, Ye Chen's eyes suddenly caught sight of an inconspicuous small cauldron on the table.
