The villainous second male lead at the beginning? No! He's the white moonlight!

On the second floor of the Ye family's old house, Ye Qingyan and Ye Qingxin witnessed everything that was happening.

"Big sister, who is this Chen Qiang? How dare he be so bold?"

"He has no real status; he thinks he's a successful person, but in reality, he's just a nobody."

Ye Qingxin had been out of the business world for a long time and didn't know Chen Qiang, the famous head of Tiansheng Group. But Ye Qingxin was different. Since taking over Ye Group, she had been a powerful and influential figure in the business world. Chen Qiang was just a nobody who had barely caught her eye!

Don't be fooled by Tiansheng Group's current market value of 1200 billion; Ye Qingxin has already emptied Tiansheng Group out of its coffers!

Ye Qingxin has already made preparations for all those in Haicheng who are enemies of the Ye family, or who may be enemies of the Ye family.

If the other party hadn't come forward, everything would have remained the same and nothing else would have happened. But since the other party has come forward, bankruptcy liquidation is their only outcome!

Coincidentally, ever since she learned that Chen Qiang and Liu Yanran had been engaged, Ye Qingxin had already taken notice of him. If he had behaved himself, nothing would have happened. Ye Qingxin was not an unreasonable person. But since he insisted on showing up to seek attention, Ye Qingxin was not going to hide him anymore.

"I'm going to make a phone call."

Seeing that Ye Qingyan was about to leave, Ye Qingxin quickly reminded her.

"Don't take things too far. Maybe he's just A-Yuan's new toy."

Upon hearing Ye Qingxin's words, Ye Qingyan paused in her steps and subconsciously looked at Ye Linyuan, who was smiling at the gate. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that Chen Qiang might really be Ye Linyuan's toy.

After all, someone like Chen Qiang could be dealt with with just a word from A Yuan, enough to bankrupt the entire Tiansheng Group and leave the Chen family destitute and homeless.

But judging from A Yuan's current appearance, it seems he has no such intention.

"Since he's A-Yuan's toy, I'll let him off the hook for now. He can just pray that A-Yuan is magnanimous and doesn't take him to heart!"

If Chen Qiang knew that his family was still not bankrupt thanks to Ye Linyuan's interest in him, he wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He'll most likely cry, after all, Chen Qiang has a very strong sense of pride!

Besides being a sycophant in front of Liu Yanran...

As the saying goes, speak of the devil and he shall appear. Liu Yanran stepped out of the Liu family's car and immediately spotted Ye Linyuan at the door. She ran up to him and greeted him happily.

"A-Yuan!"

"Sister Yanran."

Seeing Ye Linyuan's somewhat indifferent expression, Liu Yanran's nose suddenly stung, and a feeling of grievance welled up in her heart.

Ever since she learned that the Liu family was going to form a marriage alliance with the Ye family, no one knew how happy she was. In fact, she had been looking forward to Ye Linyuan coming to visit her these past two days.

But to her surprise, Ye Linyuan, that little rascal, acted as if he knew nothing about this and didn't come to her door to build a relationship, making it seem like she was the only one who was expecting it.

Thinking of this, Liu Yanran couldn't help but say sourly.

"You stinky Yuan, you haven't come to see your sister for so many days. Have you forgotten about her?"

Seeing that Liu Yanran was obviously unhappy, although he didn't know why she was unhappy, Ye Linyuan, based on the attitude that a man should admit his mistakes, decisively admitted defeat.

"How could that be? Even if I forget myself, I would never forget Sister Yanran."

Hearing Ye Linyuan say this, ignoring Liu Meier and Liu Ruyan who had gotten out of the car with him, Liu Yanran spoke to Ye Linyuan in a coquettish tone.

"Then why don't you come looking for her? Do you know how much she misses you?"

These words immediately made Ye Linyuan blush deeply, and he hurriedly reminded him awkwardly.

"Ahem, Sister Yanran, let's go inside and talk. This is the main entrance after all."

As he spoke, Ye Linyuan gestured with his lip toward Liu Meier and Liu Ruyan behind her, who were smiling and watching the show.

"Alright, alright, let's do as A-Yuan says, let's go in first."

Liu Yanran nodded and chuckled twice before walking inside.

As Liu Ruyan passed by Ye Linyuan, she seemed to be thinking about something, so she blew him a kiss, then blinked at him and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Young Master Ye, my eldest sister is rather boring. If you find her uninteresting, you can come and find me. I'll definitely make sure you're satisfied."

Standing behind her, Liu Meier rolled her eyes at Liu Ruyan's blatant flirting, shoved her, and said coldly.

"You vixen, stop being so flirtatious and hurry up and follow me, the eldest sister has already gone inside."

At the same time, Liu Meier looked at Ye Linyuan and reminded him in a warning tone.

"Young Master Ye, let's not beat around the bush. If you dare to hurt or disappoint my eldest sister, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"I know I'm not as capable as you, and our Liu family isn't as powerful as the Ye family, but we're willing to risk everything to bring down the emperor. Even if we're no match for him, I can still make Young Master Ye suffer a real pain. Don't doubt my resolve!"

"I was raised by my eldest sister since I was a child. To me, she is like a mother. Therefore, I will never allow anyone to make her sad. Anyone who dares to make her sad will be sent to hell without hesitation, even if..."

Liu Meier didn't finish her sentence; she simply turned her gaze to Liu Ruyan, the implication of which was self-evident.

Even if Liu Ruyan caused Liu Yanran heartbreak, she would not hesitate to kill Liu Ruyan!

Ye Linyuan didn't respond, but couldn't help looking Liu Meier up and down.

He truly hadn't expected that Liu Meier, who looked so gentle and weak, was actually a ruthless character who would kill someone at the slightest provocation.

Name: Liu Meier

Age: 19

[Note: If you are her older sister, she will treat you wholeheartedly and clear all obstacles for you. If you are her enemy, she will make you truly understand what it means to stop at nothing!]

Tsk tsk tsk, interesting. It's a good thing the Liu family didn't let her inherit the family business, otherwise the Liu family would have taken off!

Speaking of which, I don't think I've even met Liu Ruyan, the current head of the Liu family.

Ye Linyuan shifted his gaze from Liu Meier to Liu Ruyan.

Name: Liu Ruyan

【Favourability: 80】

Wow, these ratings and attributes... no wonder he's the legendary Emperor Ruyan!
