Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Dragon King! A Man in Prison
Just as he entered the office,
Upon seeing Bai Wanyi and Tang Yu together, Ye Chen immediately focused on Tang Yu, his gaze fixed on him intensely.
"This bastard?"
"Why is he with Bai Wanyi?"
Noticing Ye Chen's stare, Tang Yu cleared his throat as if he hadn't seen him.
[Why are you staring at me? Do you think I'm trying to steal Bai Wanyi from you?]
[This guy is a crazed stallion; does he think all the beauties in the world belong to him? Right?]
Bai Wanyi raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Tang Yu.
"What is this guy saying now?"
She then looked at Ye Chen and asked, "What's up? Are you here to report a crime?"
"No," Ye Chen replied awkwardly, smiling as he explained, "I came to visit a friend who has been arrested by you."
[Haha, a friend who is a murderer.]
Tang Yu secretly rejoiced at this.
"Who is your friend?"
After hearing Tang Yu's thoughts, the good impression Bai Wanyi had of Ye Chen instantly vanished.
"Playing with criminals?"
"What else could he be but trash?"
Noticing Bai Wanyi's cold gaze, Ye Chen felt frustrated.
He explained with a depressed expression, "His name is Long Ya."
As an expert in seducing women, Ye Chen knew that his action today was a big mistake and would likely generate Bai Wanyi's disdain.
But with Long Ya in trouble, as the leader of the Dragon Soul organization, he couldn't just stand by.
If he didn't resolve this, Long Ya could end up in prison for life.
What would the organization's members think if a general ended up in prison?
As expected, upon mentioning Long Ya's name, Bai Wanyi's impression of Ye Chen plummeted further.
"She looked at him with disdain and said, 'And what is your relationship with him? Now he is suspected of a crime.'"
"He's my employee. I'm the head of the Dragon Group."
Ye Chen had to reveal his identity.
However, Bai Wanyi showed no surprise. She wasn't interested in power or wealth.
Even if you're the emperor, you must follow the rules.
With a cold tone, she said, "The crimes he has committed are quite serious. Currently, visits are not allowed. Go home."
Ye Chen became nervous. He pointed at Tang Yu and said, "Officer Bai, I need to explain to you. If Long Ya has truly committed a crime, I will be the first to report it. But he is innocent in this case; he just took over the Mingyue Hotel."
"The previous owner of the Mingyue Hotel is this young man, Tang. He is the one you should be arresting."
Tang Yu's eyes widened in surprise. "What does that have to do with me? I didn't participate in anything. Officer Bai already investigated and found me innocent."
[Damn, what does that have to do with me?]
[Damn Dragon King, don't blame me! I didn't kill anyone in the hotel!]
[[If she wants to arrest you, she should arrest you. If you stay in this world, you'll just drive up the rice prices.]
[Damn, speaking of which, they wear the same pair of pants. Bai Wanyi, this stinking woman, shouldn't help him frame me, right?]
Hearing Tang Yu's thoughts, Bai Wanyi nearly lost her patience; she wanted to hit this bastard.
What did it mean to wear the same pants as him?
"I met him not long ago, okay?"
"Framing an innocent person? I wouldn't do such a thing even if I were dead."
With her face flushed with anger, she looked at Ye Chen and said, "I don't need you to teach me how to do my job. The current owner of the hotel is Long Ya, and he is the one I'm arresting."
"Since you're his boss, it means the Mingyue Hotel is your property. So you will also be subject to investigation."
Ye Chen was so furious that his face turned green with rage.
What kind of logic was that?
To hide his identity, Ye Chen was neither the owner nor the majority shareholder of the Dragon Group.
If he hadn't decided to make her his lover, he really would have wanted to teach her a lesson.
"Women must submit; what good are they if they don't obey me?"
[Damn, isn't there something wrong with the plot?]
[Does it seem like Bai Wanyi dislikes Ye Chen?]
[No, it can't be. This guy should have won her over by now.]
[This guy did everything possible to catch a pickpocket and create their first meeting.]
[He even bought a bag of plastic bottles from an old woman who was collecting them.]
[With those two actions, Bai Wanyi should have been screaming in her heart that she fell in love with him.]
[Hey, the plot must have collapsed again. When she feels better, quickly arrest him, Officer Bai.]
Tang Yu stood by, enjoying the show and hoping for a confrontation between the two.
Apparently, magic needed to be fought with magic.
Bai Wanyi had a gloomy expression.
"Was the entire initial meeting also manipulated by this Ye Chen guy?"
"This man."
"He's really disgusting."
Ye Chen looked at Bai Wanyi and said, "Officer Bai, I am willing to cooperate with the investigation. The truth will come to light."
"But the real person you should investigate is this young Tang. I suspect he sold the hotel at a low price to frame my friend."
"The Mingyue Hotel is valued at around 200 billion yuan. But it was sold to Long Ya for 50 billion yuan. That is the clearest proof."
Ye Chen, suppressing his anger, firmly pointed at Tang Yu.
[Damn bastard, can't you have some dignity?]
[If it weren't for you and Long Ya causing problems at my hotel, why would I have sold it so cheaply?]
[In fact, you bear at least 89% of the blame for the plan to frame me, right?]
Tang Yu was about to counterattack when Bai Wanyi spoke first.
"Is having money a problem? He bought the hotel just for his girlfriend's birthday party."
Ye Chen was so furious he trembled and felt cold on a hot day.
He remembered the humiliation he suffered in the hotel that day.
Bai Wanyi snorted in disdain and did not want to continue speaking with Ye Chen.
After listening to his thoughts for a while, she was convinced that Ye Chen was not a good person.
If the hotel murder case had anything to do with him, she wouldn't mind personally arresting him.
She turned to Tang Yu with a gentle smile.
"Tang Yu, thank you for cooperating with today's investigation. It's time for you to go home and rest; it's very late. I'll invite you to dinner next time."
After hearing her thoughts, she was sure that Tang Yu was innocent.
Moreover, he immediately sent the clues about the crime, which showed his confidence in her.
Being trusted by someone was indeed a pleasant feeling.
"Huh?"
Tang Yu was confused.
[What's going on with you? Why are you suddenly so kind to me?]
[Please stop; don't treat me like this!]
[This isn't you. Where is your temper?]
Meanwhile, Ye Chen was so angry he could burst.
"Bai Wanyi, why is she being so nice to this guy?"
Her attitude towards him was as if he were an enemy.
He glared at Tang Yu, his eyes burning with fury.
At that moment, the office door opened again.
An extremely beautiful woman entered, followed by a bodyguard and a lawyer.
The person who entered was none other than Su Muyue.
Upon seeing Su Muyue walk in, Ye Chen, who had just been angry, felt better instantly.
He even felt a bit moved.
She, who always said she wanted to stay away from him, came when he was really in trouble.
In fact, she was the woman he liked. She didn't disappoint his expectations.
Smiling wickedly, she said, "Muyue, you..."
"Are you okay?"
Before he could finish speaking, Su Muyue approached Tang Yu with concern
