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

In the kitchen, Ye Linyuan chopped vegetables while speaking softly to Liu Yanran.

"Yanran, please keep a close eye on Xiaogezi. That girl is timid and was kidnapped before, just like me. I'm worried her illness might flare up. You're her attending physician, so I'll need to trouble you with this."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yanran paused in washing the vegetables and nodded.

"I understand, I'll take it to heart, but A-Yuan, are you really alright?"

"You are our pillar of strength. If something happens to you, it will be more troublesome than if anything happens to any of us here."

Hearing Liu Yanran's heartfelt concern, Ye Linyuan chuckled and replied.

"We grew up together, don't you know me? I'm just a little annoyed right now. I originally wanted to keep a low profile and deal with the Mitsubishi Group in a slow and steady way, but I didn't expect things to escalate like this."

Liu Yanran rolled her eyes at Ye Linyuan, her tone filled with helplessness.

"It's too late to say anything now that things have come to this. After all, even the US military stationed in Japan has been mobilized, and tanks have been driven into the streets. Now you can't keep a low profile even if you want to."

When this was mentioned, Ye Linyuan was equally speechless, and explained with a wry smile.

"That was arranged by the United States. I originally just wanted them to send a platoon of fully armed US troops stationed in Japan to intimidate us, but who knew they would not only send a company, but also bring tanks and armored vehicles."

"Speaking of which, A-Yuan, I'm quite curious, why would the US listen to you?"

"Of course it's because of money."

Ye Linyuan spoke matter-of-factly, but then he realized that Liu Yanran was unaware that he owned the Maple Leaf Group, worth hundreds of billions of US dollars, in the United States, so he began to explain.

"Sister Yanran, it's like this. I've been abroad for four years, and I haven't been idle during those four years. I own a group in the United States called Maple Leaf, with a total market value of around 1000 billion US dollars. We also have a lot of investments on Wall Street and good relations with several military-industrial groups in the United States. I made a call to them, and they made the arrangements."

Liu Yanran nodded, her eyes filled with admiration and pride as she looked at Ye Linyuan.

This is Ah Yuan, whom I've admired since I was a child!

In just four years, without the help of his family's influence abroad, he was still able to build a $1000 billion business empire and even get involved with the strongest conglomerates and military enterprises in the United States!

As expected of Ayuan!

Just then, Ye Linyuan's hand, which was chopping vegetables, suddenly stopped, and he looked up at Liu Yanran.

"By the way, Sister Yanran, was there any news from the Mitsui family this afternoon?"

When it came to serious matters, Liu Yanran's expression turned serious.

"Yes, that's right. Not long after you left, Ruoxi received the news that Mitsui Takeichiro and Mitsui Takejiro were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, making phone calls everywhere to try to explain what happened today to you. Also, not long before you came back, Uesugi Masao from the Uesugi Group sent someone with a message saying that he wanted to join you and even sent his sister over."

"What the hell? The Uesugi Group? I remember the intelligence said that the Uesugi Group had basically been emptied out by the Mitsui Group, so what's this Uesugi Masao all about?"

"Regarding Uesugi Masao, I just looked through the information Qian Yijie and the others gave me. It says that Uesugi Masao is not very capable. He is a typical playboy who indulges in eating, drinking, gambling, whoring, smoking, cheating, swindling, and stealing.

"As for his younger sister, Uesugi Asuka, she is the campus belle of Toto University. She is quite beautiful and studies business administration. Her grades are excellent. Moreover, I can tell from the information that Uesugi Asuka has always wanted to revive the Uesugi family."

At this point, Liu Yanran's tone became slightly sour.

"This is the school beauty of Qianri Kingdom, Young Master Ye, are you interested?"

Ye Linyuan rolled his eyes at Liu Yanran and continued chopping the vegetables in his hands.

"Interested my ass. Tell him to go cool off somewhere else. Just because his sister offers to give it to him doesn't mean I have to accept it. Do you think this is a junkyard?"

Liu Yanran was amused and laughed so hard that Ye Linyuan almost popped his eyes out.

As expected of Sister Yanran, she's truly charming.

Ye Linyuan sighed inwardly as he spoke.

"Sister Yanran, have someone tell Uesugi Masao that he can join me, but he must tell me everything about the Uesugi Group, including all its accounts, asset details, personnel lists, and its relationship with the Mitsui Group. There must be no omissions. Otherwise, I don't mind wiping out the Uesugi Group while I'm dealing with the Mitsui Group."

"Understood, my young master Ye, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

Dinner was very plentiful.

Ye Linyuan used all his skills to prepare a large table full of dishes, all of which were Chinese cuisine. They were delicious and visually appealing. Although An Wangshu and the others didn't have much of an appetite, they still ate a little bit after Ye Linyuan coaxed and tricked them.

After dinner, Ye Linyuan watched a movie with them for a while until Luo Qingge fell asleep on his shoulder. Only then did he carefully carry her back to the room, turning to look at Luo Qingyue and Luo Qingxuan.

"Please keep a close eye on Little Pigeon tonight, and let me know immediately if there are any problems."

"Don't worry, Qingge is our little sister, we will definitely take good care of her."

"Yes, Luo Qingyue is right. Qingge is our precious darling, and we will definitely take good care of her."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

After speaking, Ye Linyuan looked at An Wangshu and Leng Qinghan.

"Wangshu, Qinghan, you should get some rest too. The events of today are over. You just need to close your eyes and go to sleep. Call me anytime if you need anything."

Just then, An Wangshu suddenly hugged him, buried her face in his chest, and spoke in a muffled voice.

"Brother, please don't take any more risks. Wangshu is so scared, so scared that something will happen to you."

Looking at An Wangshu in his arms, Ye Linyuan sighed inwardly, reached out and rubbed her little head, turning her hair, which she had just combed after taking a bath, into a little bird's nest.

"I promise you, it won't happen again."

The next day, the media in the country exploded.

The Ginza shooting incident immediately made headlines in all media outlets across Japan, with headlines that were increasingly exaggerated and shocking.

US military tanks rolled onto the streets of Ginza, all because of him!

A mysterious Chinese tycoon was attacked in Japan; the US military deployed a large number of tanks, armored vehicles, and fully armed soldiers to provide him with comprehensive, all-around protection!

"Sato Ryuichi arrested, the entire Sumiyoshi-kai leadership wiped out, all because they offended a Chinese!"

Shocking! A Chinese national was able to command US troops stationed in Japan. Is this a sign of moral decay or a distortion of humanity? Let's delve into the minds of US troops stationed in Japan!

It has to be said that UC Shock Department exists everywhere, including across the strait to the Thousand-Day Country.
