Ga!

Ye Qingxian's expression instantly turned dazed, and she said in annoyance, "I'm a beautiful woman, where on earth would I grow a beard!"

"Then show me what changes you're talking about." Chen Xuan laughed, shrugging his shoulders while taking the opportunity to brush off Ye Qingxian's hands from around his neck.

Ye Qingxian pouted and pointed to the corner of her eye, "Look carefully! Do you see crow's feet?"

Chen Xuan laughed in exasperation, "Those are the ones you made appear on purpose! You're only twenty-five; you're in your prime, where would you get crow's feet."

"They are clearly there, you're just pretending not to see them." Ye Qingxian huffed, "Do you know why I have crow's feet at such a young age?"

"Is your menopause arriving early?" Chen Xuan teased with a playful smile.

That really annoyed Ye Qingxian. She started hitting Chen Xuan with her small fists, laughing and scolding, "You're so annoying! Always making fun of me."

"I can't see you and miss you too much, that's why. And also because I'm working hard day and night to gather information for you."

"You don't care about me at all, just make fun of me!"

Chen Xuan shook his head, laughing, "Alright, stop trying to sell me pity. Where did you steal those crow's feet from anyway?"

"Let's talk business, where's the information on the Ma Family that you gathered? Let me see it."

Ye Qingxian giggled sweetly, "Kiss me first, and I'll give it to you."

Chen Xuan immediately put on a stern face, "Ye Qingxian, I don't like when people negotiate with me or take the opportunity to coerce me into doing things!"

Seeing Chen Xuan's change in expression, Ye Qingxian didn't dare to fool around any further and pretended to pout, "I'm just joking with you, why are you so serious?"

"I never said I wouldn't give it to you. I specifically called you over just to hand it to you personally."

She turned back to the desk, took out a folder, and handed it to Chen Xuan, "It's all here."

Chen Xuan reached out to take it, sitting on the sofa in the lounge area.

The information on the Ma Family's background was very detailed.

The Patriarch, Ma Boqu, is in his sixties and has two sons and a daughter.

The eldest son is Ma Guangshun, who also has a son and a daughter, named Ma Wenhao and Ma Ting, respectively.

The second son is named Ma Guangyuan and has an only son named Ma Wenqiang.

The third daughter, Ma Yanli, is married to Han Zhicheng, and they have a son named Han Tianhua.

Ye Qingxian took the opportunity to sit next to Chen Xuan, almost leaning against him, and softly said, "In addition, I gathered some very secret information, but its authenticity is yet to be verified."

"The Ma Family is secretly colluding with Dongyang businessmen, and it seems like there's even involvement with the Dongyang Ninja Organization."

Hmm?

Chen Xuan furrowed his brow slightly, "Where did you get this information from?"

"I gathered it secretly; it should be true, but I haven't found any concrete evidence," Ye Qingxian replied.

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Honestly, Qingxian, thank you for the information you've gathered for me. It's saved me a lot of time and effort."

"Why thank me? As long as you remember how good I am to you." Ye Qingxian smiled sweetly.

Chen Xuan looked at her calmly, "If you have any requests, just say so, don't intentionally keep me guessing."

"You should know my nature well; I don't like being schemed against. If there's something you want, just lay it all out openly."

Ye Qingxian immediately felt embarrassed and angry, "Chen Xuan, after all this time, you still see me in a negative light."

"Do you think that by helping you, I'm always plotting to reap greater benefits from you?"

Chen Xuan chuckled softly, "Don't get worked up, don't I know you well enough?"

"With all your schemes, they could wrap around the world. Stop hiding things from me, just tell me what you want."

Sigh!

Ye Qingxian put on a sorrowful expression, "Is this how you see me? It really breaks my heart."

"I've been nothing but sincere, yet you misunderstand me, shattering my heart to pieces."

Pa!

Chen Xuan gently tapped the back of Ye Qingxian's head, "Don't put on the melodramatic act, you might fool others, but you can't fool me."

"I'm treating you as a friend, which is why I speak so candidly. If you don't mention it, I'll consider it a missed opportunity on your part."

"If you really need my help in the future, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

"I don't have any demands for you, you're just falsely accusing me," Ye Qingxian pouted in rebuttal.

"Alright then, consider what I said just now as never said."

Chen Xuan stood up, "Nevertheless, thank you for your hard work, I'll take my leave now."

"Don't go just yet."

Ye Qingxian called out to him, "Chen Xuan, since you insist that I have demands, then stay and help me solve the current problem."

"So you won't always misunderstand, thinking I'm just using tricks to make you do things for me."

Chen Xuan chuckled, "Alright, tell me, what tricky problem are you facing?"

"Moreover, it's related to the Ma Family," Ye Qingxian said softly, "We're allies on a unified front, fighting against the Ma Family together."

Oh?

Chen Xuan steadied himself and sat back down, "Then tell me in detail, what's the specific situation?"
