The Rolls-Royce Phantom smoothly drove out of the gate of the Su Family Manor.

Su Wanqing sat in the driver's seat, her hands gripping the steering wheel. She didn't let the driver do it for her; instead, she drove herself.

The atmosphere inside the carriage was somewhat awkward.

Ye An sat in the passenger seat, leaning back casually against the leather seat, fiddling with the cell phone the Su family had given him.

Su Wanqing secretly glanced at the man beside her out of the corner of her eye.

Her grandfather's words were still echoing in her ears.

The meaning of having her personally take care of Ye An's daily life couldn't be clearer.

She, the president of the prestigious Su Group, a woman pursued by countless wealthy young men in Jiangcheng, is now being forced to become a nanny for a man.

What's even more problematic is that she didn't actually feel much resistance.

"Ahem..." Su Wanqing cleared her throat, trying to break the silence, "Well, I've already had the villa cleaned, and all the household items are brand new. When you get there, see if you need anything, and I'll have someone buy it for you tomorrow."

"No need to bother, a place to sleep is fine." Ye An didn't even look up, continuing to press the buttons on his phone.

Su Wanqing bit her lip, feeling somewhat annoyed.

Does this man have absolutely no sense of romance? A man and a woman are about to move in together, and he hasn't said a single extra word.

The car had just left the tree-lined avenue of the manor and was about to turn onto the main road.

Suddenly, a figure darted out from under the streetlights ahead and knelt upright in front of the car.

"squeak--!"

Su Wanqing slammed on the brakes, the tires screeching against the asphalt.

The car shook violently and stopped less than half a meter away from the person.

"What happened?" Su Wanqing, still in shock, looked up.

By the light of the car headlights, she could see the person kneeling on the ground.

It is Qin Xuecheng.

At this moment, Qin Xuecheng was no longer the person he had been at the banquet.

His hair was disheveled, his suit jacket was gone, and his tie was hanging crookedly around his neck. He was desperately kowtowing in the direction of the car.

"Mr. Ye! Mr. Ye, please see me!"

Qin Xuecheng shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice hoarse.

Su Wanqing frowned and turned to look at Ye An: "Is he from the Qin family? Should I go down and drive him away?"

"Drive there." Ye An put his phone in his pocket, his tone indifferent.

Su Wanqing nodded, restarted the car, and prepared to steer around Qin Xuecheng.

Seeing the car about to leave, Qin Xuecheng rushed forward and clung tightly to the hood with both hands.

"Mr. Ye! I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!" Qin Xuecheng shouted at the windshield, ignoring the scorching hot hood.

He was just beaten half to death by his own father with his cane and was kicked out of the house.

The old man gave a strict order: if he couldn't get Ye An's forgiveness, he would no longer be a member of the Qin family.

Qin Xuecheng waited outside the Su family manor for more than half an hour before finally seeing the car.

Ye An rolled down the car window, and a cold draft rushed into the car.

He turned his head and looked at Qin Xuecheng's face, which was covered in cold sweat.

Qin Xuecheng was overjoyed to see Ye An appear and quickly moved to the car window.

"Mr. Ye, please forgive my rudeness and let it go! Ruoxue knows she was wrong, and she's still waiting for you to come home..."

Qin Xuecheng's words were cut off before he could finish speaking.

Because he saw Su Wanqing sitting in the driver's seat.

Jiangcheng's number one goddess, the eldest daughter of the Su family, is currently dressed in a proper evening gown, personally acting as Ye An's driver.

And judging from their demeanor, driving away from the Su family in the middle of the night, where are they headed?

This thought exploded in Qin Xuecheng's mind.

He suddenly realized just how foolish he had been.

A man who could make the eldest daughter of the Su family pay him any money and who could be treated as an honored guest by the old master of the Su family was actually kicked out of the house like trash!

He actually dared to try to get the other party's forgiveness!

"Are you done talking?" Ye An asked, looking at him.

Qin Xuecheng opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

"Get out of the way after you've said that." Ye An rolled up the car window.

Su Wanqing stepped on the gas, and the Rolls-Royce roared as it sped past Qin Xuecheng and disappeared into the night.

Qin Xuecheng slumped to the ground, watching the taillights of the departing car, filled with deep regret.

"Snapped!"

He raised his hand and slapped himself hard across the face.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The crisp sound of a slap echoed through the quiet street.

Qin Xuecheng slapped himself hard with both hands, each slap more forceful than the last, until his face was swollen and blood was spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"I'm a pig! I'm an animal! I'm fucking blind!"

He slapped himself while wailing loudly.

The Qin family is finished, completely finished.

Half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce drove into Longquan Mansion in the city center.

This is the most upscale residential area in Jiangcheng, with extremely strict security.

Villa No. 1 is located at the highest point of the community, covering a vast area, and features a huge private garden and outdoor swimming pool.

The car came to a stop in the garage.

Su Wanqing led Ye An into the villa.

The hall was decorated in an extremely luxurious style, with a huge crystal chandelier emitting a soft light and hand-woven Persian carpets covering the floor.

"The second floor has the master bedroom and guest rooms, and the third floor has a gym and a media room. Which room would you like to stay in?" Su Wanqing changed into slippers and turned to ask.

Ye An did not answer.

He stood in the center of the hall, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

From the moment he stepped into the courtyard of the villa, he sensed something unusual.

The air here contains an extremely faint, yet real, energy.

Reiki.

Although it's very thin, it's simply unbelievable in this modern city of steel and concrete.

Ye An opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping around before finally settling on the stairwell leading to the basement.

"What's down there?" he asked, pointing to the stairs.

"The basement?" Su Wanqing was taken aback. "It's mainly used as a wine cellar and storage room; very few people go down there. What's wrong?"

Ye An didn't explain further and walked directly towards the stairs.

Su Wanqing was completely confused and could only follow behind.

The basement was spacious, but the lighting was somewhat dim.

One wall of wine shelves was filled with red wines of various vintages. A faint aroma of cork filled the air.

Ye An walked to the center of the basement and stopped.

He raised his right foot and stomped heavily on the ground.

"Thump."

A dull thud echoed through the basement. The sound didn't originate from the surface, but from the deepest part of the earth.

"Just as I thought." Ye An nodded.

"What happened?" Su Wanqing couldn't help but ask.

"There is an underground river beneath this villa."

Ye An pointed to the ground:

"The water flows from the northwest and is blocked by the rock strata here, forming a natural confluence point."

"Water nourishes wood, and wood nourishes wind; this is truly an excellent feng shui location. More importantly, this underground river brings a trace of the earth's spiritual energy, all of which has accumulated in this basement."

Su Wanqing was completely confused; these things were beyond her comprehension.

"so what?"

"So I decided to live here."
