My Silly, Sweet Wife

Though Iron Hand didn’t know what kind of poison he had, he understood that this poison was not something an ordinary person could cure.

However, he hadn’t expected that he would turn calamity into a blessing. Not only had he neutralized the poison, but he had also advanced to the rank of a second-rate expert.

That’s right. Having remained at the low-tier expert level for a long time, Iron Hand had reached a bottleneck and thought he would never progress further in his lifetime. But now, the vast energy in his body told him that he had stepped into the long-awaited rank of a second-rate expert.

Ye Guichen had naturally sensed Iron Hand’s transformation too.

He slowly opened his eyes, examined Iron Hand, and suddenly asked, ”How much do you think your life is worth?”

”Huh?” Iron Hand didn’t quite understand, ”Mr. Ye, what do you mean by that?”

Ye Guichen said, ”You’re just a useless dog to me. Just now, you ate one of my Nine Yang Revival Pills. If I were to sell it, it would probably be worth a lot, right?”

”Nine Yang Revival Pill?” Iron Hand’s pupils constricted as he incredulously asked, ”Mr. Ye, that, that stinky thing was a Nine Yang Revival Pill?”

”Stop talking nonsense!” Ye Guichen scolded him harshly, ”You were severely poisoned and half-dead. Without this pill, do you think you could have survived, let alone made a breakthrough?”

Iron Hand swallowed hard, a look of shock on his face.

”Did I just consume the legendary Nine Yang Revival Pill that’s worth over a billion?”

As an assassin for Yama Hall, Iron Hand was naturally well-aware of the underground world.

Although the listed price of the Nine Yang Revival Pill was over a billion, it was often auctioned off at much higher prices, with no upper limit.

Moreover, those who possessed such a pill would never put it up for sale.

This was a divine medicine that could not only reconstruct meridians, significantly increasing the chances of a breakthrough but could also bring someone back from the brink of death.

Iron Hand had even heard that last year, a Nine Yang Revival Pill appeared in the underground market and was sold for ten billion.

He never expected that the pill Ye Guichen gave him was this Nine Yang Revival Pill.

This kindness was more than just a lifesaving grace.

”Mr. Ye, the money, I will definitely repay it,” Iron Hand stammered.

His life might not mean much in Ye Guichen’s eyes. If he had auctioned off that pill, he could easily have earned billions.

As an assassin for so many years, Iron Hand had barely saved up close to a billion. How could he repay Ye Guichen?

Moreover, to have such a pill in his possession proved that Ye Guichen’s identity was not simple.

Ordinary people couldn’t possibly own such a thing.

”Forget it. Since I’m in a good mood today, I won’t hold you accountable. I don’t need much. Remember to repay me when you have the money,” Ye Guichen muttered, ”Luckily, I specially made five pills before coming down the mountain. There are still four left. If something unexpected happens again, not even a god could save me.”

Thud!

Having just felt greatly in debt to Ye Guichen, Iron Hand stumbled, nearly falling over.

Still, four more?

And, from his words, he made them himself?

How was that possible?

There were only a handful of people in the world who could make pills, let alone the Nine Yang Revival Pill.

But it was clear that Ye Guichen didn’t want to dwell on this any longer. After tidying up the messy room, he finally said seriously, ”Spill it.”

At this moment, Iron Hand dared not hide anything.

Including the previous time, he now owed Ye Guichen two lives.

”Mr. Ye, I don’t know if the other party was a Judge, but, but he really had Yama Hall’s Judge Pen.” Iron Hand quickly recounted the events.

Ye Guichen frowned.

He had heard about some of the experts within Yama Hall.

A few years ago, this Judge was quite famous, and it was said that he not only had the Judge Pen but also the Book of Life and Death.

Anyone listed in his Book of Life and Death had no escape.

But somehow, the Judge of Yama Hall suddenly disappeared, and even traces of his existence were erased. Yama Hall didn’t explain it either, as though they avoided discussing this Judge.

Now that the Judge Pen had reappeared, it made Ye Guichen suspicious.

”Alright, I understand.” Ye Guichen stood up and looked at Iron Hand’s two empty hands, ”This is my home; I won’t keep you here. Though you’ve broken through, your level isn’t stable yet. Find a place to stabilize your level, and remember to repay me for the pill later.”

”Understood, understood.” Iron Hand nodded repeatedly. Knowing he had to become stronger to stay by Ye Guichen’s side, he quickly left.

After this incident, Iron Hand wouldn’t dare go back to Niu Lan’s villa.

But for an assassin, finding a place to stay wasn’t difficult.

Ye Guichen didn’t ask where Iron Hand would go. He knew that from now on, Iron Hand was his loyal dog, ready to obey any command without hesitation.

However, now Ye Guichen became more interested in the person wielding the Judge Pen.

While he was lost in thought, the phone rang.

”Hello?” The call was from Zhao Erdan.

Upon hearing Ye Guichen’s voice, Zhao Erdan quickly said, ”Boss, Shang Shufang is at our shop. He’s inviting you to his home for dinner.”

In the past, Ye Guichen hadn’t given Shang Shufang his phone number or taken seriously Shang Shufang calling him ”big brother.”

He didn’t expect Shang Shufang to take it seriously.

”What’s the point of a meal?” Ye Guichen didn’t think he was that familiar with Shang Shufang and wasn’t in a hurry to agree.

Before Zhao Erdan could say more, Shang Shufang grabbed the phone, ”Big brother, it’s me, Shang Shang.”

Ew!

Ye Guichen felt a wave of disgust. Calling yourself Shang Shang... Why not call yourself Xia Xia?

”Get to the point.” Although Ye Guichen had a good impression of Shang Shufang and had received ten million from him, he didn’t bother to be polite.

Despite Ye Guichen’s rude tone, Shang Shufang only chuckled, ”Big brother, my dear brother, I’m already working on what you asked. Rest assured, I’ll soon secure the Imperial Medical Restaurant. But after my dad heard I had a new big brother, he wanted to meet you and has invited you for a family dinner tonight.”

”I never acknowledged being your big brother,” Ye Guichen said.

”No, big brother, don’t misunderstand. I meant no disrespect.” Sensing Ye Guichen’s reluctance, Shang Shufang’s eyes glinted as he hurriedly said, ”How about this? When I secure the Imperial Medical Restaurant, I’ll give you half its shares. It’ll be a joint venture between us brothers. You won’t have to do anything; just wait for the profits.”

Ye Guichen’s eyes lit up at these words, ”Is there really such a good deal?”

”Of course!” Shang Shufang assured hurriedly, ”Since I acknowledge you as my big brother, I must act like a little brother. Everyone who knows me knows that once I make a promise, it’s unbreakable!”

”Alright, give me the address. With such a good offer, how could I refuse?” With such a fortune offered, how could Ye Guichen decline?

Hearing Ye Guichen agree, Shang Shufang’s smile almost split his face.

After hanging up, Shang Shufang quickly sent the address to Ye Guichen.

Zhao Erdan, standing nearby, was dumbstruck with admiration.

Rich kids were indeed different. Offering half of his assets just like that. Even though the restaurant hadn’t opened yet, half of its value must still be worth several million.

Ah, look at Boss Ye. This is truly winning at life.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen had no idea Shang Shufang was the son of Shang Wen Dong, nor that Shang Wen Dong was plotting against him. Seeing that it was getting late, he ate something, tidied up a bit, and left the house.

After all, being the head of the Security Department, it wasn’t right to always be absent.

So, after leaving the neighborhood, Ye Guichen headed straight for the Chen Group.
