My Silly, Sweet Wife

”What, how is this possible?”

”This is the best music I’ve ever heard in my life, bar none.”

”Oh my, I finally understand what heavenly music sounds like. To think there’s truly such music in this world.”

”So, music can be like this!”

For a long time, people remained lost in thought, full of emotion.

Wu Fang’s face was ashen, filled with unbearable shame.

His performance was indeed brilliant, but compared to Ye Guichen’s ”Ambush from Ten Sides,” it paled in comparison, the distinction clear as day.

Seizing the moment when no one was looking, Wu Fang, unable to face his humiliation, slunk away with his tail between his legs.

”Ye Guichen, you’re really this amazing?” Mi Lan looked at Ye Guichen, her emotions surging uncontrollably.

Ye Guichen scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, ”I wasn’t fully prepared, otherwise it would have been even more spectacular.”

”Uh...” Mi Lan was at a loss for words.

She suddenly realized that Ye Guichen was quite full of himself.

However, her eyes sparkled with wonder.

First, it was his fluent French, and now he performed such a masterful piece of music.

Ranran, you’ve really found a treasure.

For some reason, Mi Lan felt a peculiar emotion, wondering why she hadn’t met Ye Guichen earlier.

It was past ten in the evening.

The concert finally concluded.

Mi Lan felt as if she had experienced an incredibly beautiful dream, everything that happened tonight seemed so unreal.

Even when she parted from Ye Guichen, Mi Lan was still immersed in those beautiful melodies.

Meanwhile, at Fengman Building.

This is a high-end restaurant where the most luxurious private rooms start at a minimum of one hundred thousand.

In the Emperor’s Hall, a table of people, both men and women, were seated.

Yu Jieyuan, drunkenly holding a beauty, continually raised his glass to a youth who appeared to be in his thirties.

The young man had sharp features, flanked on both sides by two beautiful women, one of whom was Qi Nuan.

His face was slightly flushed, seemingly at an inebriated stage, as his two hands roved restlessly over Qi Nuan and the other woman.

”Hehe, Young Master Ning, why the rush? Tonight, we are all yours.” Qi Nuan flirted, not only refraining from stopping the youth but also snuggling closer to him.

The other woman was not to be outdone, ”That’s right, Young Master Ning, there are so many people here.”

But her gaze seemed eager to meld herself into the young man’s body.

Yu Jieyuan raised his glass, ”Young Master Ning, it is our honor to have you visit Yun City, come, let me toast you again.”

The youth addressed as Young Master Ning waved his hand, ”Mr. Yu, you’re too kind. We’ve had enough to drink, it’s time to rest.”

The implication was clear—it was time to move on to the next agenda.

Yu Jieyuan promptly signaled to Qi Nuan.

Qi Nuan batted her lashes, speaking charmingly, ”Young Master Ning, Young Master Yu heard you were coming to Yun City and prepared for several days. You mentioned the Ning Family needs a representative in Yun City. What do you think of Young Master Yu for the role...”

Yu Jieyuan quickly nodded and bowed, ”Yes, yes, Young Master Ning, I, Yu Jieyuan, might not have much talent, but I have no problem running errands for you in Yun City.”

Ning Chengyuan glanced at Yu Jieyuan, ”I understand what you mean, but it’s not up to me. We’ll talk about it later.”

With that, he stood up, waving his hand and staggered toward the exit.

Qi Nuan hurried after him but was shoved aside by Ning Chengyuan, ”You should know by now that I like virgins. Someone like you, I might play with, but have no interest in sleeping with.”

His words left a faint smile at the corner of his mouth as he turned to leave.

A black and a white female bodyguard immediately followed.

Qi Nuan stood frozen in place.

She had thought that by serving Young Master Ning well tonight, she could cling to his leg and surpass Mi Lan, but to her surprise, he had seen through her immediately.

Her face turned pale, and she stamped her foot, whining, ”Young Master Yu, look at this.”

Yu Jieyuan didn’t look any better, ignoring Qi Nuan. In a fit, he smashed his glass on the ground, ”Damn it, who does Ning Chengyuan think he is? If not for their Ning Family, would I be so deferential?”

Yu Jieyuan had heard about Ning Chengyuan.

This guy was the third-generation heir of the Ning Family from the provincial capital, a person who wouldn’t think twice about harm, with very peculiar tastes, not only favoring virgins but also employing foreign female bodyguards, always bringing along one black and one white.

Yu Jieyuan had learned that the Ning Family seemed poised to expand into Yun City, which interested him even more, especially since the Ning Family had recently joined the thriving Azure Dragon Commerce.

Once affiliated with Azure Dragon Commerce, Yu Jieyuan felt he would have a solid backing, no longer needing to kowtow to his sister and brother-in-law.

In his eyes, his brother-in-law, Zhou Weijun, was too pedantic, imposing unnecessary restrictions.

He had long wanted to break free from his brother-in-law’s control and work independently, hence the effort to curry favor with Ning Chengyuan.

Unexpectedly, Ning Chengyuan, after a meal, just patted his hand and left without making any promises or comforting words.

Yu Jieyuan seethed with anger but dared not confront Ning Chengyuan.

Few knew the terror of the Ning Family, but Yu Jieyuan had heard it countless times from his brother-in-law, Zhou Weijun.

The Jiangnan Province was home to numerous family enterprises, but few could hold a candle to the Ning Family, reportedly one of the top three prestigious families in the province.

Thus, combining all the businesses and families in Yun City probably wouldn’t amount to even a fraction of the Ning Family’s power.

Although feeling disgruntled, Yu Jieyuan knew this wasn’t a matter to rush, given Ning Chengyuan might stay in Yun City for a while.

Sitting down, Yu Jieyuan then looked at the bodyguard behind him.

The bodyguard was none other than the burly man kicked by Ye Guichen earlier.

”Da Niu, you have someone watching Mi Lan’s boyfriend, right?” To deal with Ning Chengyuan, Yu Jieyuan hadn’t found a chance to take revenge on Ye Guichen, but now he wouldn’t let him off.

Da Niu’s back still hurt. He quickly nodded, ”Got him. He parted ways with Mi Lan after the concert and is now on Delin Road.”

”Good, I’m bursting with anger today.” Yu Jieyuan stood up, ”Lead the way. Tonight, I’ll make that kid pay for offending me!”

…

After sending Mi Lan home, Ye Guichen called Chen Ziran, only to find she was still working overtime.

With nothing to do at home, Ye Guichen decided to wander to the Chen Group.

Delin Road was the route to Chen Group.

It was past ten, and the number of pedestrians had significantly decreased.

As Ye Guichen walked, a car suddenly veered in front of him, blocking his path.

”Kid, feeling pretty proud of yourself?”

As the car stopped, four or five burly men jumped out.

The leader was none other than Yu Jieyuan.
