My Silly, Sweet Wife

Ye Guichen didn’t expect that Fan Zhidong would also know about the organization Sakura Falling.

But thinking it over, it made sense.

Fan Zhidong was highly skilled and would certainly be aware of such organizations as Sakura Falling.

However, Ye Guichen didn’t say much, just smiled mildly: ”Mr. Fan does have some knowledge. You’re right, this poison indeed comes from Miaojiang Witchcraft, known as Half-Step Crazy. Anyone who touches it will go insane, unable to take a step, severely hallucinating, and ultimately committing suicide.”

”Since you know this, how can you say that detoxifying it is easy?” Fan Zhidong was slightly displeased with his words.

In his view, although Ye Guichen was powerful in martial arts, he was too arrogant. Now claiming to be able to detoxify sounded like he was taking him for a fool.

If witchcraft poison were that easy to detoxify, it wouldn’t be something that people feared as much as tigers.

Moreover, this was supposed to be the top poison among witchcraft, Half-Step Crazy. Luo Qianqi’s moment of greed might cost her dearly.

Wu Caijun kept his eyes fixed on Ye Guichen.

Especially after hearing Ye Guichen’s explanation of the poison, Wu Caijun’s heart was in his throat, fearing Ye Guichen might suddenly have a toxic flare-up and kill him.

Although he was extremely superstitious about Ye Guichen, almost to the point of worship, this sounded too damn bizarre.

Ye Guichen didn’t bother explaining too much. He dragged Luo Qianqi toward the nest of snake eggs beside the cave.

Fan Zhidong immediately tensed up: ”What are you doing?”

He thought Ye Guichen was going to harm Luo Qianqi.

If Luo Qianqi died, the powerful Luo Family would likely hold him accountable as well.

Even though Luo Qianqi was now raving mad, there was at least a chance someone could cure her.

Ye Guichen ignored Fan Zhidong, picked up a snake egg, gently knocked it against the wall to break it, scooped out a handful of the egg juice, and shoved it into Luo Qianqi’s mouth while pinching her nose.

Luo Qianqi struggled in panic, but how could she possibly break free?

With her nose pinched, she had to open her mouth, and the egg juice flowed down her throat.

After finishing, Ye Guichen tossed Luo Qianqi aside: ”Done.”

Done?

Fan Zhidong stared wide-eyed at Luo Qianqi.

Luo Qianqi lay on the ground, and after just a few minutes, her confused eyes gradually regained clarity.

”Where am I?” Luo Qianqi subconsciously touched her mouth, a fishy taste greeting her, her hand sticky and disgusting.

”Miss Luo, you, you’re really okay?” Fan Zhidong was astonished, helping Luo Qianqi to her feet, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Was it really this simple?

Snake egg juice could really detoxify?

Luo Qianqi immediately recognized Fan Zhidong, recalling previous events, her face changing, she turned to look at the pile of treasures, her voice trembling: ”Those... those treasures are poisoned?”

”Yes, they are.” Fan Zhidong was both crying and laughing.

Wu Caijun was so shocked that he covered his mouth and whispered to Ye Guichen: ”Mr. Ye, you’re incredible. How did you know that the egg juice could detoxify?”

”Heh, since these strange snakes live here, they must have built up immunity, so it’s natural the egg juice would detoxify.” Ye Guichen gave a simple explanation, and Wu Caijun suddenly understood, slapping his head and turning to the wall, picking up all the snake eggs and smashing them, spreading the juice on the treasures.

Afterward, Wu Caijun grabbed a large handful of treasures and took a deep breath: ”The smell of wealth is intoxicating!”

Seeing Wu Caijun’s behavior, Luo Qianqi couldn’t help twitching the corners of her mouth.

She had behaved just like that earlier and got poisoned because of it.

Wu Caijun was clearly mocking her.

”You, you are going too far.” Luo Qianqi’s face flushed, ”Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to swallow so many treasures?”

Ye Guichen looked at Luo Qianqi with a smile: ”You might want to reconsider my earlier proposal.”

”Proposal?” Luo Qianqi was confused, clearly having no memory of her madness.

She looked at Fan Zhidong for confirmation.

Fan Zhidong quickly reiterated Ye Guichen’s words.

On hearing it, Luo Qianqi was stunned: ”Impossible, you’re really asking for too much, 51% of the shares are worth far more than these treasures. If we agreed, there’d be no more Luo Family.”

”Heh, if you disagree, feel free to leave.” Ye Guichen said coldly, giving Luo Qianqi no room to negotiate.

”You...” Luo Qianqi hadn’t expected Ye Guichen to be so decisive, biting her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.

There was no way to fight or rob, and if they didn’t agree, the Luo Family would be finished, not worth a penny.

But...

With another thought, a crafty look flashed in Luo Qianqi’s eyes, ”Fine, I agree with you.”

”In that case, leave this place to you.” Ye Guichen called out to Wu Caijun: ”Pick a few items, let’s go.”

Despite being reluctant, Wu Caijun quickly picked out several valuable pieces of jewelry and put them in his pockets.

Even though they wouldn’t fetch sky-high prices, a few hundred thousand wouldn’t be a problem.

But after seeing those strange snakes, Wu Caijun gave up hope of finding his companions.

Once Ye Guichen’s group left, Fan Zhidong wore a worried expression: ”Miss Luo, you’ve agreed to 51% of the shares. Old Mr. Luo and your brothers probably won’t consent.”

Luo Qianqi smiled smugly: ”Mr. Fan, are you becoming muddle-headed? Haha, they say words are nothing without some evidence; what did I agree to?”

”Ah?” Fan Zhidong was dumbfounded, ”You mean to go back on your word?”

”Ha, that kid can fight, no doubt. Once he’s away from Snake Head Mountain, what backing does he have against our Luo Family? If he truly demands it, I’ll hire a lawyer to fight for 10, 20 years. Let’s see what he does.” Luo Qianqi considered herself extremely smart, ”Even if he’s exceptional, can he dodge bullets and cannons?”

Fan Zhidong furrowed his brow, swallowing the words he wanted to say.

Ye Guichen was clearly a formidable character, someone who didn’t care for vast fortunes and had the demeanor of a Banished Immortal killing strange snakes; defrauding him could mean disaster for the Luo Family.

Sigh, it seems I’ll find a way to sever ties with the Luo Family after we return.

Fan Zhidong didn’t want to be implicated by Luo Qianqi’s moment of cleverness.

Meanwhile, Wu Caijun couldn’t help asking: ”Mr. Ye, you’re just giving Luo Qianqi all those treasures? Aren’t you afraid she’ll renege?”

”Renege?” Ye Guichen smiled faintly, proudly saying, ”With a small family like the Luo Family trying to challenge me? Not a chance.”
