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

Watching Pei Sijing being escorted into a police car by the sheriff, about to be arrested for the second time, Ye Linyuan thought for a moment and decided it would be better to first find out from the Xiao family why this guy was released so quickly.

He didn't want to send him in one minute and have him come out the next.

Although I don't care about this minor role, paying extra money multiple times is too much trouble.

"Ah Yuan, should I use the Su family's name to exert pressure?"

Seeing that Ye Linyuan's expression was obviously unhappy, Su Shiyu brushed her long hair behind her ear and smiled gently at Ye Linyuan.

She could see very clearly that her A Yuan and this guy named Pei Sijing had a significant conflict.

Since he was A Yuan's future capable wife, he naturally had to handle such a small matter for A Yuan!

As long as A Yuan agrees, she will fight to the death of the Su family to make this Pei Sijing pay the price for daring to provoke her A Yuan!

Ye Linyuan shook his head in response to Su Shiyu's question.

"No need, Sister Shiyu, don't worry. Pei Sijing is nothing to cause trouble."

While refusing Su Shiyu's offer, Ye Linyuan called Xiao Ruoxi. Soon, Xiao Ruoxi's ethereal voice, tinged with a hint of melancholy, came from the other end of the line.

"Brother Yuan, you finally remembered to call her. She thought you'd been so engrossed in your sweetheart these past few days that she'd completely forgotten about her."

Ye Linyuan was instantly embarrassed and almost wanted to disappear. He realized that he had really been indulging in a gentle embrace these past two days.

First it was the stunning twins Ye Xi and Ye Xin, then the day before yesterday it was Sister Shi Yu and Wang Shu, and only yesterday I was busy and didn't have many people around me...

Even so, he never expected that Xiao Ruoxi, his younger sister whom he had grown up with...

"I'm so sorry, it's my fault. Ruoxi, you're so kind, please don't be angry."

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Ruoxi's somewhat resentful expression vanished instantly, leaving only a faint blush.

Yuan-ge is still the same; even when it's not his fault, he will still apologize to himself.

Mmm~ I like Yuan-ge the most~

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ruoxi finally came to her senses and softly asked into the phone.

"So, Yuan-ge, what's the matter that you're calling them now?"

Ye Linyuan couldn't help but tease him.

"Can't I call Ruoxi if there's nothing wrong?"

"Hehe, of course not. I really hope that Brother Yuan will call me when he has nothing to do, but every time Brother Yuan calls me, it's because he has something to say. So when Brother Yuan calls me, my first reaction is, 'Brother Yuan, do you need something from me?'"

After being teased by Xiao Ruoxi, even Ye Linyuan, who always considered himself thick-skinned, felt somewhat embarrassed. She had completely hit the nail on the head; he really did have something to say when he called Xiao Ruoxi...

"Ahem, Ruoxi, please stop. If you keep going, I'll really be too ashamed to face you."

"Hehe, it's okay. If you're really ashamed, Yuan-ge, you can come into my arms. My arms are always open to you, no matter the time or place. As long as you're willing, I'm willing."

hiss~

Upon suddenly hearing Xiao Ruoxi's suggestive words, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but gasp.

"Um, Ruoxi, please don't say things like that in the future. Only your brother is a gentleman. Anyone else would think you're inviting them to be your lover."

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Ruoxi was already blushing with embarrassment. It was the first time she had spoken so bluntly, and Ye Linyuan's words left her speechless.

That damn Yuan-ge! He's usually so smart, and he understands everything about other women, but when it comes to me, he always treats me like a child and jokes around with me.

She had already put aside her girlish pride and made it so clear...

Taking another deep breath, Xiao Ruoxi finally spoke.

"Brother Yuan, maybe that's exactly what they mean?"

Forehead......

Ye Linyuan's lips twitched, and he glanced guiltily at Su Siyu, who was looking at him with a gentle smile. He quickly covered the microphone and whispered.

"Well, Ruoxi, let's talk about this another time. Let's get down to business first."

Hearing Ye Linyuan say this, Xiao Ruoxi sighed inwardly.

As expected, Brother Yuan still doesn't want to accept me. What do you mean by "let's talk about it next time"? Brother Yuan definitely won't bring this up again next time. It seems that Leng Qingyue's appearance has clearly tilted the scales in Brother Yuan's heart towards her.

It seems I have no choice but to join the Ye family's five sisters' anti-Yue alliance, and I also need to bring Gu Shishi and Murphy along. The more allies I have, the greater my chances of winning the upcoming confrontation with Leng Qingyue!

While thinking, Xiao Ruoxi smiled sweetly and spoke into her phone.

"Alright, alright, what important business do you want to discuss, Brother Yuan? As long as it's within my power, I'll do it even if it kills me."

"It's not that exaggerated. It's like this, Ruoxi, do you remember Pei Sijing who was sent to jail a couple of days ago for spreading rumors about me and Wangshu?"

"Of course I remember, I was just about to tell you about it."

Upon hearing this, Ye Linyuan frowned.

The fact that the Xiao family knew about this means that the other party used force to suppress the Xiao family and force them to back down.

That doesn't make sense. If even the Xiao family has been overwhelmed by the other side, then there's no reason why the Ye family wouldn't have any news at all.

Could it be that my dad and older sister didn't tell me because they didn't want me to worry?

They're seriously underestimating me!

I did build the Red Leaf Group, a company worth hundreds of billions of US dollars, in the US with just a few hundred million dollars in capital, okay?

Just as Ye Linyuan was pondering just how powerful Pei Sijing's backing was, Xiao Ruoxi's next words left him speechless.

"They only got the news this morning. It's said that the director of Qingshan Mental Hospital in Haicheng issued a mental illness certificate to Pei Sijing. As you know, in our country, mentally ill people who commit crimes are generally not sentenced. At most, they are locked up in a mental hospital, unless the mentally ill person has committed a serious crime such as murder, drug trafficking, or treason."

"So this morning, Pei Sijing was sent to Qingshan Mental Hospital."

What the hell?

Is this possible?

Ye Linyuan had considered that Pei Sijing's release from the detention center was due to the combined efforts of the seven families in the north, and also that it was the three families in the capital. But he never imagined that it would be through proof of mental illness.

It seems that the director of Qingshan Mental Hospital is one of Pei Sijing's connections; otherwise, he wouldn't have been willing to issue a mental illness certificate to Pei Sijing to bail him out.

As for what will happen to Pei Sijing after she is sent to Qingshan Mental Hospital, needless to say, she will be able to come and go as she pleases!

Damn it, I never expected there would be such a loophole to exploit!

"Brother Yuan, since he can get a mental illness certificate to prove he's mentally ill, we can also find someone to prove he's not. They've already had the Xiao family's lawyer collect evidence and have consulted with a leading domestic psychiatrist. This time, they definitely won't give him any loopholes!"

"Don't worry, Brother Yuan. If this guy doesn't rot in jail, I, Xiao Ruoxi, will no longer be surnamed Xiao."

Upon hearing this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but tease him.

"Ruoxi, if you no longer have the surname Xiao, what will you choose as your surname from now on?"

"Your surname is Ye!"

Ye Linyuan: emmmmmm.......

What's going on? I haven't seen Ruoxi for four years, how did she become so good at flirting? She's even making my heart flutter!

However, this level of skill alone is not enough.

"Haha, sure! If Ruoxi, you take the surname Ye from now on, I will definitely treat you like my own little sister and spoil you."

"Hmph, I don't want to be a younger sister, I want..."

As she spoke, Xiao Ruoxi's voice softened. Ye Linyuan, knowing her thoughts, pressed his advantage and couldn't help but tease her further.

"What? Ruoxi, what do you want?"

"Oh, Yuan-ge, you're so mean, I'm not talking to you anymore."

"Hahaha, alright, alright, let's get down to business. Ruoxi, since he wants to be labeled as mentally ill, let's make it a fact!"

"Hmm? Brother Yuan, what do you mean?"

"He has a mental illness, so let's send him to a mental hospital for treatment. If anything happens, Aoyama Mental Hospital will be responsible, since they are the ones who issued the mental illness certificate."

"This Haicheng has more than just Qingshan Mental Hospital!"

"Besides, if he can get someone to issue a certificate of mental illness, so can we!"

"Let's see whose magic is more powerful!"
