"Well, we know that, so we won't stop you, but let you do what you want to do."

Ye Ziyi looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.

"But if you can't stop it, then you should seize this opportunity... Finally, avenge the deaths."

"I will."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Zi Yi, if you were a man..."

"Hey, what's wrong with the woman?"

Ye Ziyi interrupted Xiao Chen and rolled her eyes.

"If I were a man, would I still talk with you by candlelight at night?"

"Why not? If you were a man, we would definitely be good brothers."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"If I were a man, would I be able to sleep with you after a candlelit night talk with you?"

Ye Ziyi said again.

"Uh, this won't work."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Being a good brother is being a good brother, but sleeping with me... that's not okay."

"hehe."

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Ye Ziyi laughed out loud.

"So, now you still hope I'm a man?"

"I don't hope so. Women are good. Not only can they be my military advisors and give me advice, but they can also sleep with me."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Oh, I feel like I'm at a disadvantage."

Ye Ziyi was joking.

"I'll give you advice, but I'll have to sacrifice myself."

"No, you should think so."

Xiao Chen looked at Ye Ziyi.

"You should think that you gave me the plan, and I gave myself to you in return... Look, isn't this a lot better?"

“It’s true.”

Ye Ziyi nodded.

"So, tonight, does this count as a pledge of your body to me?"

"Of course."

Xiao Chen said, blinking his eyes.

"As long as you want, I will..."

“…”

Ye Ziyi was speechless. This guy... was so frivolous.

"Hold on, we haven't finished yet, let's get on with the serious stuff."

"OK."

Xiao Chen nodded, poured two cups of tea and handed one to Ye Ziyi.

"Come, Advisor Ye, have some tea."

"Thank you, Alliance Leader Xiao."

Ye Ziyi took it and said jokingly.

"Haha, having you all call me 'Alliance Leader Xiao', I feel like I have become the Alliance Leader."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"Especially Lao Zhao. When he called me, I felt like this was just like playing house."

"This shows that we are all very confident that you will become the leader of the martial arts world."

Ye Ziyi said seriously.

"Yes, Lao Xiao said that if I can't become the leader of the martial arts world, then he, the ancestor, is a waste."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Old Xiao even bet on himself! So, I have to work hard and not let him lose!"

"Haha, judging from Patriarch Xiao's layout, he is worthy of his title."

Ye Ziyi smiled.

"An old scoundrel? Haha, this time, he is not targeting a certain person, but the entire martial arts world."

Xiao Chen said.

"I guess it must be an extremely challenging and conquering thing for him."

"I have a few small suggestions. You can talk to Patriarch Xiao tomorrow... But don't say it's me who said it. Just say it's your idea."

Ye Ziyi took a sip of tea and said.

"Okay, go ahead."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"I'm all ears."

Afterwards, Ye Ziyi told Xiao Chen her little suggestion, and Xiao Chen's eyes brightened even more.

"The conspiracy and the overt conspiracy, the coordination between them, it's absolutely amazing."

"Perhaps Patriarch Xiao has already thought of it, but just didn't tell you... Just talk about it casually. If you can use it, use it. If not, forget it."

Ye Ziyi said.

"Besides, what I said may not be right."

"Okay, let me talk to Lao Xiao and let him handle it himself."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say..."

Ye Ziyi finished her tea and stood up.

"I'm going to take a shower first..."

"Come together, I will serve Military Advisor Ye."

Xiao Chen stood up with a smile on his face.

"Tonight is my way of repaying Military Advisor Ye for his love for me. How can I let Military Advisor Ye do it himself..."

"Is this true? If you...if you go, can you still take a good bath?"

Ye Ziyi looked at Xiao Chen, her pretty face slightly blushing.

"Taking a bath is just taking a bath. Whether you take a bath well or not, it's still a bath..."

Xiao Chen said with a wicked smile.

"Let's go, Advisor Ye, it's getting late..."

“…”

Ye Ziyi couldn't refuse and could only agree.

Then, they went to the bathroom together.

Just as Ye Ziyi thought, with Xiao Chen here, she couldn't take a good bath at all...

…

At dawn, Ye Ziyi woke up and looked at Xiao Chen who was sleeping beside her, with a slight smile on her lips.

Last night, with Alliance Leader Xiao and Military Advisor Ye, it felt like a role-playing game.

Not to mention, it gave her a different kind of excitement.

Thinking of something, her smile faded slightly. She had already said everything she had thought of. Should that help him?

She knew that every woman in the family wanted to help Xiao Chen.

Since she has no strength, she can only give him advice.

"Perhaps, I shouldn't stay in Longmen Group."

Ye Ziyi had this thought.

Compared to the underworld, the business world no longer offers her too many challenges.

But the world of martial arts is different. She is both familiar and unfamiliar with it.

What we will face will be new and different challenges!

Perhaps, she could really be a military advisor to him?

Initially, she went to Longmen Group because Qin Lan was the only one there and she was too busy to handle everything.

Now that Longmen Group is on the right track, she and Qin Lan can both retire with honor.

If you retire after achieving success, you will have free time.

And she is not the type to sit idle...

"Maybe, you can try."

Ye Ziyi muttered to herself.

Half an hour later, Xiao Chen woke up and looked around, but no one was there.

"So early?"

Xiao Chen muttered to himself, sat up, washed up quickly, and went downstairs.

"Are you up?"

In the living room, Ye Ziyi was reading a book. When she heard the noise, she looked up.

"Well, Ziyi, why are you up so early? You only slept for two or three hours?"

Xiao Chen went downstairs and sat down on the sofa.

"I couldn't sleep, so I got up. I'll get you a glass of water."

Ye Ziyi said this and stood up to pour some water.

"What book?"

Xiao Chen was curious, took it and looked at it, his eyes widened.

"What the hell, The Art of War?"

"Come, drink some water."

Ye Ziyi came back and placed the cup in front of Xiao Chen.

"Why are you reading this book?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"The Art of War, it's a good thing left by our ancestors."

Ye Ziyi smiled.

"Don't you want me to be your military advisor? So, I want to review Sun Tzu's Art of War. It is said that the business world is like a battlefield, and the martial arts world is even more treacherous!"

"Hmm? You agreed?"

Hearing Ye Ziyi's words, Xiao Chen was stunned, then his eyes lit up.

"It's not time yet, I just want to learn more."

Ye Ziyi shook her head.

"I'm still a long way from here."

"I'm already very good. With you here, I'll definitely be even better."

"Haha, wait for me to read more books."

Ye Ziyi smiled and took the "Art of War" from Xiao Chen.

“…”

Xiao Chen took a look at "The Art of War" and then looked at Ye Ziyi. Does one have to read this to survive in the underworld?

What a roll!

How can we live happily in this world?

Moreover, he felt that the presence of "The Art of War" in the world was a bit of a dimensionality reduction attack.

"Why are you looking at me? Drink some water."

Ye Ziyi raised her head.

"Huh? Oh, okay."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Going to eat?"

"You go first, I'll read a book."

Ye Ziyi shook her head.

“No hurry.”

"Okay... I'll go first then."

Xiao Chen said this, drank the water in one gulp, and left Ye Ziyi's villa.

When he arrived at the restaurant, he didn't see Lao Xiao and the others.

He asked and learned that they had finished eating and left.

"I'm getting older now, so I don't sleep enough. I need to get up so early..."

Xiao Chen muttered to himself, and after finishing his meal, he went to find Lao Xiao.

"Why are you here so early?"

Xiao Yi was drinking tea, and when he saw Xiao Chen coming in, he asked.

"Come to talk to you about something."

Xiao Chen sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Old Xiao, any news?"

"No."

Xiao Yi shook his head.

"Besides Wanzhang Manor and Xishan Sun Family?"

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yi and asked again.

"Um?"

Xiao Yi was a little surprised.

"Hehe, what, an accident?"

Xiao Chen smiled and drank a sip of tea.

"You asked me to recover, don't you just want to delay it a little bit?"

"I didn't. I really want you to recover."

Xiao Yi shook his head and refused to admit it.

"Okay, I have something to talk to you about..."

Xiao Chen took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled slowly.

He told Ye Ziyi everything he had talked about last night, whether it was conspiracy or not.

As Xiao Yi listened, his expression became much more serious.

He looked at Xiao Chen, surprised. Was this guy the one who thought of all this?

Some things... he actually ignored them and didn't think about them!

"Okay, kid, you've made progress."

Xiao Yi couldn't help but interrupt Xiao Chen and said.

"Hehe, what about what I just said?"

Xiao Chen said proudly.

"It's good, but a little too idealistic... I haven't been in the martial arts world for long, I should gain more experience."

Xiao Yi commented.

"hehe."

Xiao Chen's smile became even wider. The fact that Old Xiao could give such a comment showed how awesome Ye Ziyi was.

"This is not something I came up with. It was Zi Yi who came up with it."

"Zi Yi? Ye girl?"

Xiao Yi was even more surprised.

"She thought of it?"

"Yeah, isn't that a surprise?"

Xiao Chen nodded.

"It's normal to be idealistic. She has never been in the underworld."

“…”

Xiao Yi couldn't hide his surprise. He knew that the girl from the Ye family was powerful, but... he didn't expect her to be so powerful!

"She has said a lot more, and I haven't finished yet."

Xiao Chen continued speaking.

“…”

After listening to Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Yi was silent for a long time and asked a question.

"Where is Ye girl?"

"She? She's reading The Art of War."

Xiao Chen replied.

"What? Read The Art of War?"

Xiao Yi was confused.

"Yes, she said she wanted to learn it so that she could survive in the martial arts world in the future... Lao Xiao, when you were in the martial arts world, did you also read this? Did you pay attention to the art of war? What do you mean by the art of war? The art of deception is the art of trickery?"

Xiao Chen asked with a smile.

“No…no.”

Xiao Yi shook his head. He suddenly felt that all these years of his life in the martial arts world had been in vain.

"She also said that she wanted to be my military advisor... Old Xiao, what do you think of this military advisor?"

Xiao Chen asked again.

"You want me to retire?"

Xiao Yi looked strange.

"Hahaha."

Xiao Chen burst into laughter. Old Xiao's answer was enough to show how excellent Ye Ziyi was!
