My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife

"How should I know? I'm not a worm in your stomach!"

Qin Yu spread his hands.

That affair with Han Bing really was a troublesome mess. Moreover, given what he understood about her, she was a proud and extreme woman.

If she ever found out it was him who slept with her, she would undoubtedly throw him into that special room at Division Seven, lock him up for ten or fifteen days, and torture him to death.

Just thinking about that unbearable five-day experience made Qin Yu's back go cold.

"Group Leader Han, is there something you need?"

At this moment, Lu Wenrou, having finished her phone call, also walked over and nodded indifferently at Han Bing.

Even though she wasn't fond of Han Bing's way of doing things, the two organizations still needed to cooperate, so they couldn't afford to let the relationship become too stiff.

"It's nothing!"

After finishing her cold statement, Han Bing rolled up her car window and merged into the traffic with a stomp on the gas pedal.

"Qin Yu, other than that matter with Yang Kun, is there some kind of misunderstanding between you and Han Bing? Why is she always targeting you?"

Watching the taillights of Han Bing's SUV, Lu Wenrou revealed a suspicious expression.

Han Bing was assertive and somewhat overbearing, but after all, she was the leader of Division Seven, and she could clearly distinguish right from wrong in major issues.

If there wasn't a personal grievance with Qin Yu, why would she incessantly pick on him, right?

"I don't know either... Maybe our horoscopes just don't match!"

Qin Yu scratched his head and spoke ambiguously.

"Forget about her. I'm hungry, let's go eat!"

Lu Wenrou waved her arm.

"Alright!"

Qin Yu nodded and walked with Lu Wenrou into a popular eatery, ordering a pot of mutton soup and a bottle of white wine, chatting while they ate.

It was around nine in the evening when they returned to the courtyard house.

After taking a bath, they each headed to their rooms to sleep.

The night passed without incident.

The next morning.

When Qin Yu got up, Lu Wenrou was lifting stone locks in the courtyard. Without top-notch internal mental methods, the majority of martial artists could only improve their fighting strength by tempering their muscles and bones.

The benefit was that there were no bottlenecks; as long as one could break through the limits of the body, they could continuously improve their cultivation.

The drawback was that progress was incredibly slow, and many people might only break through to Huajin in their entire lives.

"Want to give it a try?"

Seeing Qin Yu come out, Lu Wenrou kicked the largest stone lock in the courtyard labeled "400".

"Heh, sure!"

Qin Yu looked at Lu Wenrou, who in the middle of winter, wore a green tank top that was soaked by sweat and stuck to her body, which, due to her constant training, had not an ounce of excess fat.

She appeared compact and taut, complemented by her healthy wheat-colored skin, exuding a unisex charm that was irresistible to both men and women.

"Honestly, I'm envious of your martial arts talent. I remember when I came to East Sea to find you, you had just comprehended the dark energy, right? In less than a year, you're almost breaking through to Half-Step Pill Holding!"

Lu Wenrou folded her arms, watching Qin Yu swing the 400-pound stone lock with a fierce power, her face showing a mix of amazement and envy.

"Primarily, it's because I've practiced mental methods from Jianghu, and with some good luck, I've been able to progress quickly. Actually, I've never really understood to whom this mental method truly belongs. If there's a chance, I'll share the mantra with you, and we can practice it together!"

In the presence of Lu Wenrou, Qin Yu had no intention of keeping any secrets.

However, currently, since the Martial Alliance was also eyeing the Shen Zhao Jing with covetous intent, and since there were major secrets involved with the method, he couldn't tell Lu Wenrou just yet; doing so would be akin to harming her.

It would be considerably more difficult for the Martial Alliance to catch him, but for them to capture Lu Wenrou, who had just reached the dark energy level, would it not be a piece of cake?

"Ah, you saying that is good enough for me. I used to be quite proud, thinking I was a martial arts prodigy. Now it seems I really don't have much talent in martial arts!"

Lu Wenrou said, pursing her lips.

"Don't think like that. As long as you've comprehended the dark energy, your cultivation will speed up afterward!"

Qin Yu comforted Lu Wenrou.

"Really?"

Lu Wenrou sounded half convinced and half doubtful.

"Of course, why would I lie to you! Heh heh..."

Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Squeak..."

As the two were talking, the sound of a car approached from the door.

"They must be here, let me put on my clothes!"

Lu Wenrou picked up the camouflage uniform set aside and put it on before heading for the door.

Qin Yu put down the stone lock and went out as well.

From the chat last night, he knew the special action team consisted of only five people. Besides Lu Wenrou and himself, there were three other members.

"Captain Lu, Tank reporting for duty!"

With a hearty and deep voice, a man over 1.9 meters tall, resembling half of a metal tower, appeared in front of Lu Wenrou, his body all muscle, obviously a master of strength.

"Hello, Tank!"

Lu Wenrou shook hands with him.

"Scholar!"

A young man with black-framed glasses, fair skin, and a fresh-faced look came over. Clutching a large travel bag, he was probably over 1.7 meters tall, considerably shorter than Tank beside him.

"Welcome!"

Lu Wenrou shook hands with "Scholar" as well.

"Haha... little girl, I bet you didn't expect the third person to be me!"

Another person got out of the car, with white hair, a balding head, in his fifties. Hands on hips, he looked at Lu Wenrou with a weathered face.

"Uncle Swindler!"

This time, Lu Wenrou didn't shake hands but instead took a couple of steps and hugged him lightly, showing how close their relationship was.

"Oh right, let me introduce you, this is Qin Yu. Um... a friend of mine, who has come especially to help!"

Lu Wenrou concealed Qin Yu's identity as a team leader, to facilitate their investigation of Living Yama in the dark and in the open.

"Hello, Tank!"

Tank, with his dark skin and thick eyebrows and eyes, reached out his hand to Qin Yu first.

"Hello!"

But as Qin Yu extended his hand, he immediately felt a strong force coming at him. However, he didn't strike back, smiling instead, letting the other man grip his hand.

"Haha, sorry about that!"

Tank saw that he used about eighty percent of his strength and Qin Yu behaved as if nothing had happened, hence he knew Qin Yu was a genuine expert.

"I won't compete with you in strength, I specialize in using my brains!"

Scholar glanced at Qin Yu, pointed to his own head, and walked into the courtyard first.

"Young man, you are young and strong, an old guy like me won't compete with you in strength either."

The old man patted Qin Yu on the shoulder and also stepped inside.

"Uh..."

Qin Yu was a bit stunned, glanced at Lu Wenrou, and thought that aside from Tank, who seemed quite combat-capable, why did the other two seem like a bit of a fill-in-the-blank?

A pretty boy and an old man?

Is Dragon Gate really lacking talent?

"You see... Scholar specializes in tracking and lip-reading, as well as hacking. Uncle Swindler is an old-timer in Dragon Gate, skilled in disguise and unconventional methods. My dad respects him a lot, and you'll see how amazing he is soon!"

Lu Wenrou, sensing the doubt in Qin Yu's eyes, briefly introduced Scholar and the old swindler's skills.

"I specialize in aggressive tactics and am proficient with firearms!"

Tank volunteered, thumping his chest.

"Hmm, I hope we'll have a pleasant collaboration. Wenrou, I'm heading out now!"

Qin Yu nodded and walked toward the BMW.

The people from Sector Seven would be here soon, and he didn't want Han Bing to see him here.
