"Damn, Brother Duan, you're investigating me?" Ye Guichen couldn't help but curse.

Even though he knew Duan Nanye had no ill intentions, it still irked Ye Guichen that Duan Nanye was so well-informed about his affairs.

Duan Nanye laughed heartily on the other end of the phone, "Brother Ye, that's why I'm not asking you for this favor in vain! You should know, we at Dragon Teeth have a department dedicated to gathering intelligence. Although we might not be able to match your Heavenly God's Ye Ying in some aspects, we possess resources that you don't have access to. If you agree to my request, I'll use our Dragon Teeth's power to help you find the Seven-colored Lotus Jade and uncover the secret of that black box."

"Brother Duan, you really are a cunning fox!" Ye Guichen smiled bitterly.

Duan Nanye was indeed correct; Dragon Teeth's intelligence department did have an advantage over Heavenly God's Ye Ying.

If Dragon Teeth helped him search for the last piece of Seven-colored Lotus Jade, it probably wouldn't take long to get results.

"Haha, Brother Ye, being called a cunning fox isn't exactly a compliment!" Duan Nanye laughed heartily, "So, do we have a deal?"

Ye Guichen paused for a moment, "I can help you, but Brother Duan needs to help me investigate two places."

"Where?"

"The old sites of Wuyin Sect and Yin Ghost Sect."

"Wuyin Sect and Yin Ghost Sect?" Hearing the names of these two sects, Duan Nanye was slightly taken aback, "Didn't these two sects vanish hundreds of years ago? Brother Ye, why bring them up now?"

"I'm worried that Yin Ghost Sect hasn't disappeared, and that there might be some secret hidden within Wuyin Sect. So, Brother Duan, keep an eye out for me."

"Alright, I understand." Duan Nanye agreed solemnly, "If there really are remnants of the Yin Ghost Sect, I must inform the Dao Sect."

"There's no need to tell the Dao Sect yet," Ye Guichen thought for a moment, "If there are results, we can inform the Dao Sect then."

"Alright, I'll follow your lead, Brother Ye." Duan Nanye readily agreed, "I'll arrange for Jiu'er to take you to Jinling once your matters are settled. Jinling is the headquarters of Azure Dragon Commerce, and I believe it's the place with the most clues. I'll also arrange people to support you."

"Alright." After hanging up, the car stopped at the entrance of Furong District.

This district could only be considered ordinary, and it had been built quite some years ago.

Although Chen Ziran now managed the entire Chen Group and had grown the business significantly, becoming an undisputed strong woman in Yun City,

she still lived here, never moving to a mansion like others do when they get rich.

Ye Guichen once asked Chen Ziran why she didn't just buy a villa for more comfort.

Blushing, Chen Ziran told Ye Guichen: because this was where they initially lived together, and only here did she feel at peace.

Ye Guichen was moved and smiled, choosing not to say more.

A soulmate is hard to find.

Don't let down Buddha, don't let down you.

After letting Zhao Erdan go back first, Ye Guichen came alone to Chen Ziran's home.

He unlocked the door and tiptoed inside.

Ye Guichen hadn't told Chen Ziran he was returning, wanting to give her a surprise.

As they say, short separation makes for sweeter reunions.

Although Ye Guichen and Chen Ziran hadn't become husband and wife yet, they had progressed as far as they could.

Ye Guichen knew Chen Ziran would eventually belong to him.

Some things need to happen naturally, maybe tonight would be an opportunity.

With a smile on his lips, Ye Guichen entered the room and gently pushed open Chen Ziran's bedroom door.

He saw someone sleeping on the bed, with pale limbs and legs exposed, only her stomach covered while sleeping on her side.

The scene was irresistibly alluring.

"Bai Qinghe isn't here?" Ye Guichen walked in and noticed Bai Qinghe wasn't around, which was strange.

But he didn't think much, he approached the bed, lifted the blanket, ready to get in, but suddenly heard a scream, "Ahhh! Who are you?"

Speaking, the figure under the blanket seemed to have woken up, grabbing a fruit knife from the bedside and pointing it at Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen saw stars.

He couldn't help but gulp.

Damn, she's not wearing clothes.

Reluctantly, Ye Guichen's eyes scanned her body once more, finally landing on her face, he was instantly shocked, "Mi Lan, you, why are you here?"

The person wasn't Chen Ziran, but Mi Lan.

After a brief panic, Mi Lan also quickly recognized Ye Guichen.

A faint blush surfaced on her face as she hurriedly jumped onto the bed to grab the blanket and cover her body, "You, why did you come back?"

"Ahem, Ranran is my fiancée, isn't it normal for me to come back? But you, why aren't you staying put in Qinghe, why are you sleeping here?" Ye Guichen spoke while shamelessly scanning Mi Lan with his eyes, wishing his eyes could pierce the blanket and devour Mi Lan.

Embarrassed, Mi Lan glared at Ye Guichen, "Why, I missed you, can't I find you?"

"Um..."

"What, afraid Ranran will be jealous?" Mi Lan stared directly into Ye Guichen's eyes, "Humph, when you flaunted your prowess in Qinghe, everyone knew you were my man, why are you afraid now?"

"Well, the situation was different then." Ye Guichen was embarrassed, noticing Mi Lan return to her previous assertive demeanor.

"How different is it?" Seeing Ye Guichen's hypocritical demeanor, though not speaking excessively, his eyes continued to scan her body, Mi Lan chuckled, "What, you really want to see my body again? Humph, you've seen it before, no harm seeing it again."

Speaking, she stood up slowly.

As Mi Lan stood by the bed, the blanket slid off again.

Whoa!

Ye Guichen didn't expect Mi Lan to be so bold, nearly losing his balance.

"Quick, cover up! If Ranran returns and sees this, she'll definitely misunderstand!" Sneaking glances were less scary for Ye Guichen, but looking so blatantly felt like theft, truly scaring him.

Mi Lan, though blushing, had long determined Ye Guichen was hers since Qinghe, she bit her lip and moved closer to Ye Guichen, "So what if she misunderstands? Ranran and I are best friends, good things are meant to be shared."

"But I'm not a thing," Ye Guichen felt his head was going to explode, his words starting to stutter.

"True, you're not a thing." Mi Lan said sorrowfully, "But no matter, Ranran won't mind."

Standing before Ye Guichen, Mi Lan spread her arms, her eyes filled with deep affection, staring at Ye Guichen, "Do I look good?"

"Good..." Ye Guichen nodded dumbly, feeling his nose about to bleed, but before he finished the word, the door opened again, "Lanlan, I'm exhausted, you today..."

Chen Ziran's words halted abruptly, her face frozen, like a statue, staring at the scene in the bedroom.
