Jiang Mubai glared fiercely at Ye Jintang, his words laced with venom.

His eyes seemed to want to tear Ye Jintang to pieces.

Ye Jintang met Jiang Mubai's gaze without the slightest fear, and in fact, she seemed to have the upper hand in terms of aura.

She sneered, "So this is your reason for surrounding the shop with your men?"

Jiang Mubai found Ye Jintang's smile particularly irritating. Although he hadn't had much contact with Ye Jintang in the past two years and had only recently returned to Beijing, in his memory Ye Jintang always appeared submissive.

Never before had anyone dared to speak to him like that. With so many people watching, Jiang Mubai couldn't bear the contempt Ye Jintang showed, and immediately retorted angrily, "Ye Jintang, do you know that your mother is still in a coma?"

"And I ordered you to stay home and reflect on your mistakes, but you secretly fled the manor, making a mess of the place. And yet you still realize your error?"

"So?" Ye Jintang raised an eyebrow and asked casually.

"Come back with me now, kneel before your mother's bedside and apologize, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

Jiang Mubai raised his voice, his words filled with nothing but belittling of Ye Jintang.

Ye Jintang found these words laughable.

She curled her lips into a wicked smile at Jiang Mubai.

"You think you'll forgive and forget about it if I go back with you?"

"Of course!" Jiang Mubai snorted coldly, assuming that Ye Jintang had given in when she asked him, and he adopted a haughty attitude.

Woof!

Jiang Mubai frowned, unable to bear listening to Da Bai. Although he didn't know where Ye Jintang had gotten this big wolfhound from, its fighting power was indeed astonishing.

If he hadn't brought enough men, he would have been really difficult to deal with.

"Jiang Mubai, come here."

Ye Jintang beckoned to Jiang Mubai and then told Zhou Zheng to take Da Bai to the side.

Zhou Zheng had no objection to this. After spending this time together, he didn't believe that his wife was someone who could be easily manipulated.

All he could do was avoid causing trouble for his wife.

Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment at Ye Jintang's sudden show of goodwill, but with so many people present, Ye Jintang would have no advantage whatsoever if a fight broke out.

Besides, why would a grown man be afraid of a woman?

Thinking of this, Jiang Mubai walked up to Ye Jintang.

[Woman, don't be fooled! This man is just trying to scam you! He has ulterior motives.]

Da Bai thought Ye Jintang had been deceived by Jiang Mubai's few words, and he was very anxious.

"What, now..."

Jiang Mubai looked at Ye Jintang with disdain, but before he could finish speaking, a heavy slap landed on his face.

shoot!

Jiang Mubai received a slap on his left cheek.

"Ye Jintang, you vicious woman, how dare you strike me?"

Jiang Mubai was shocked. He had thought that Ye Jintang would make him submit if she asked him to step forward, but he never expected that she would actually dare to take action.

After she finished speaking, Ye Jintang raised her hand and Jiang Mubai received another slap on the right cheek.

"It's incredibly noisy."

Ye Jintang only stopped after slapping him twice.

Looking at Jiang Mubai, whose cheeks were swollen, Ye Jintang laughed and said, "Jiang Mubai, you shouldn't be too confident. Have you forgotten how you got your title of Marquis?"

"If it weren't for my father's support, you would be nothing. Why are you putting on airs now that my father is in trouble?"

Woof woof.

[Awesome! I wish I could get a slap like that.]

The servants and guards present were also taken aback by the sudden turn of events; the lady's actions were far too drastic.

Jiang Mubai clenched his fists, clearly enraged by Ye Jintang's actions.

Now, hearing the sarcasm in Ye Jintang's words, isn't this vicious woman trying to say that he's a gigolo?

"Ye Jintang, you're courting death! Don't forget you're now the daughter of a disgraced official!"

Jiang Mubai unleashed an astonishing aura of anger.

Ye Jintang stood still, "Big White."

Da Bai had long wanted to teach this man a lesson, and upon receiving Ye Jintang's order, he rushed forward and bit Jiang Mubai's leg.

ah……

Jiang Mubai's face turned pale with pain. He wanted to kick Da Bai away, but Da Bai's size was far beyond what he could move under the attack.

"Why aren't you all coming to help!"

Jiang Mubai roared at the people standing around him, dumbfounded.

The moment Da Bai rushed out, Zhou Zheng also picked up his weapon and instinctively stood in front of Ye Jintang to protect her.

"I'd like to see who dares to make a move."

Ye Ling's voice came, and after that, more guards rushed in and pinned down all the people Jiang Mubai had brought.

Da Bai then released Jiang Mubai.

Jiang Mubai suddenly developed a deep wound on his leg, fell to the ground with a thud, and grimaced in pain.

They were even more shocked when they saw who had come in.

"Your Highness... the Regent?"

Jiang Mubai had once followed Ye He, so he had naturally seen Ye Ling before.

Before he could recover from the shock of seeing Ye Ling, he heard the next sentence.

"Lord Jiang, what do you intend to do to my savior?"

"Hmm...benefactor?"

Jiang Mubai was even more dumbfounded. Wasn't Ye Jintang just an ignorant and vicious woman? How did she get involved with the Regent's savior?

What exactly happened?

But the pain in his legs didn't allow Jiang Mubai to ask any more questions. As the big wolfhound approached again, he flinched.

Ye Jintang smiled as she looked at Jiang Mubai's terrified expression on the ground.

"Jiang Mubai, why don't you repeat what you just said?"

"Ye Jintang, don't forget that I am your husband."

"Whose husband?"

Ye Jintang blinked. "I don't know you."

"You..." Jiang Mubai was furious, but this prince was clearly here to help Ye Jintang.

Although the details of what happened are unknown, the fact that he was the Regent's savior alone is not to be underestimated.

Jiang Mubai could only endure the pain. He wanted to order his men to take him away, but he found that all of them were being controlled by the guards brought by the Regent.

I felt like a lamb being led to the slaughter.

"Your Highness, do you intend to interfere in the affairs of my Marquis's household?"

Knowing he was no match for Ye Ling, Jiang Mubai had no choice but to change his approach to prevent her from interfering.

Ye Ling's eyes were filled with indifference, and he sneered when he heard Jiang Mubai's words, "I have no interest in the affairs of your Marquis's mansion."

"But Ye Jintang saved my life, so I must take care of her affairs."

"The matter of General Ye has not yet been investigated, Jiang Mubai, why are you in such a hurry to label General Ye a criminal and call Ye Jintang the daughter of a criminal? But your identity..."

Ye Ling's eyes were cold and sharp.

"They have ulterior motives..."

Jiang Mubai's face turned pale instantly. He had said all these words to put Ye Jintang down so that she would obey him in the future.

Who would have thought that the Regent would be listening?

"Your Highness, that was just a misunderstanding..."

Jiang Mubai spoke with difficulty, but the next second...
