Chapter 192: Honored Guest 1

Greetings, Old Master Ye.

In the study room of the Ye Residence, Gu Qinghuan bowed to Ye Lingtian.

After sizing up the young man standing below, Ye Lingtian thought about what his grandson, Ye Shuo, had told him when he returned yesterday.

Boss Song has agreed to come, but he hopes that grandfather will allow him to meet you alone and not tell anyone about this.

Ye Lingtian was a little surprised when he first heard this request, but he quickly thought that this should be a sign that Boss Song had something to show. Otherwise, he wouldnt have made such a request the first time they met.

With a slight smile, Ye Lingtian said, Boss Song is now a famous person in the town.

Old Master Ye, you flatter me. Im just a normal businessman who run an inn.

Haha, what a humble man. Youre really modest.

Ye Lingtian had heard a lot about Boss Song from the butler yesterday. It could be said that although this boss hadnt been in Jiyuan Town for a long time, he had done a lot of things.

Not only did he solve the business problems of a few wealthy businessmen in the town, but he also cured a few family members who were plagued by chronic diseases. That was how he was able to win over so many important figures in such a short time.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Gu Qing, Ye Lingtian went straight to the point, I heard from Shuoer that you have the ability to help me find out who is trying to embarrass my Ye family.

Regarding this matter, I do have some thoughts, but I need to trouble you to cooperate, Old Master Ye.

Seeing Boss Song keep him in suspense and directly give a solution, Ye Lingtian was a little surprised, Oh? You already have a solution?

Yes, this is how we start

At midnight the next day, the drunk Wu Qingce followed Ye Shuo back to the Ye Residence. However, Ye Shuo looked angry, and he directly rushed into the main hall and shouted, Grandfather! Please find someone else to entertain Wu Qingce tomorrow! I cant serve him anymore!

This shout shook the heavens, and practically everyone in the Ye Residence heard it.

Ye Lingtian, who was drinking tea, frowned when he heard it and said, Why are you making such a big fuss? What have I always taught you?

Grandfather, its not that I want to make a big fuss, but this Wu Qingce is really too infuriating. Every day, he wants me to help him buy some expensive jadeite ware, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings. Normally, I wouldnt even go to the Jingtai Shop. But now, he forced me to bring him there and bought tons of stuffs. I think that his apology is fake. Hes here to extort our wealth!

At this time, the drunk Wu Qingce walked in and said with a smile, Isnt it just buying some porcelain and fabrics? Young Master Ye, why must you be so stingy? Stingy! Do you know how much money I spent?!

The voices of the two of them arguing grew louder and louder. Soon, Ye Lingtians sons rushed over when they heard the commotion. There were also many maids and servants who quietly gathered to watch the show.

My master gave you an expensive tier 7 seven medicinal pill. Is it wrong for you to buy something for me to bring back to my master?

As soon as these words were said, Ye Lingtians sons all frowned. Ye Chuan even slapped the table and said, Wu Qingce! We had been treated you nicely, but dont take it as granted. Dont forget the humiliation that your sect had brought upon us

Enough! Stop this nonsense! At this moment, Ye Lingtian slammed the table and let out a long breath. Qingce came all the way here. Whatever he wants, just buy it and give it to him. Why are you so stingy?

But Grandfather!

Alright! Stop talking. Its settled then.

After hearing Ye Lingtians words, Wu Qingce cupped his hands and said, Thank you, Old Master Ye. After saying that, he hummed a little tune and left.

Among the remaining members of the Ye family, Ye Chuan took the lead and shouted, A few days ago, I really thought that Sect of Returning Hearts came to apologize sincerely. Now, it seems like they are still making fun of us!

After hearing this, Ye Xiude replied, Big Brother, Sect Master Lu might not be the one who told Wu Qingce to do this.

Second Brother, are you still a member of Ye family? Why do you always turn your back on us for the outsiders? Sect of Returning Hearts has insulted us time and time again. I dont know about you, but I cant tolerate their ridicule!

In the main hall, the sounds of the argument grew louder and louder. Soon, the butler came out to chase away the servants and said, Go, go, go. Do you all want to die? You shouldnt listen to this!

The crowd immediately dispersed after hearing that. Among the crowd that had dispersed, a maid serving tea showed a smile on her face, a very happy smile.

On the other side, Wu Qingce, who was drunk, returned to his own courtyard. Looking at Gu Qinghuan in his room, he asked, Boss Boss Song, is this method really effective?

Since there are four big families in this prosperous Jiyuan Town, its inevitable for them to plant spies on each other. Moreover, Ive already exchanged relevant information in the inn. You can rest assured about this.

Then what should we do next?

Avoid suspicion.

Avoid suspicion? Wu Qingce asked doubtfully.

Yes. Our duty is to help the Ye family find out where is the spy. It would be better if we dont know who the spy is.

Oh Wu Qingce nodded, showing that he understood.

At noon the next day, there was a new rumor in Jiyuan Town. It said that the Sect of Returning Hearts had sent another disciple to continue insulting the Ye family. The sound of the quarrel could be heard from three streets away.

After listening to the butlers report, Ye Lingtian nodded and said, Alright, I got it. Go and invite Boss Song and Qingce over.

Yes.

Soon, Gu Qinghuan and Wu Qingce arrived at the side hall. They saw that the core members of the Ye family were all present.

After the two of them bowed, Ye Lingtian said happily, Boss Song, the rat has been caught. We have to thank you for your idea.
