My Silly, Sweet Wife

After Su Jiu’er left the bar, she did not return to the hotel directly but headed straight to the Chen Group.

Although she didn’t gain any advantage from the security guards at the Chen Group during the day, she did learn that there were high-level masters behind those guards.

Even though she promised Su Ze not to act independently, Su Jiu’er was eager to achieve merits. As long as she could find out the reason behind the Chen Group’s rapid rise, she might uncover the high-level master behind the Chen Group.

Then she could follow the clues to find out why so many masters were gathering in Yun City, which wouldn’t be difficult.

Therefore, Su Jiu’er wanted to find Chen Ziran at night and use a mix of coaxing and intimidation to force some information out of him, hoping to find some clues.

When Su Jiu’er arrived at the Chen Group, she happened to see Chen Ziran getting into a car with a little girl.

Su Jiu’er didn’t think much of Bai Qinghe, as her appearance was too deceptive. Not wanting to be entangled with the guards again, she quickly got into her own car and quietly followed after seeing Chen Ziran’s car leave.

Recently, Chen Ziran had been working overtime most of the time, sometimes not even returning home, but he was always accompanied by Bai Qinghe, so there wasn’t much danger.

However, after someone forced their way into the Chen Group during the day, Bai Qinghe became vigilant.

Not long after they started driving, Bai Qinghe noticed a car following them and her expression changed: ”Mr. Chen, hold on tight.”

It was already early morning, and Chen Ziran was starting to get sleepy with his eyelids drooping. Suddenly hearing Bai Qinghe’s voice, he jolted awake: ”What’s wrong?”

”The car behind us seems to be coming for us,” Bai Qinghe said as she suddenly accelerated the car.

There were not many cars on the road in the early morning. After Bai Qinghe’s car accelerated, the car behind them quickly sped up as well.

However, the car behind them seemed to have better performance.

After not much distance, the car behind maneuvered sharply and cut directly in front of Bai Qinghe’s car.

Bai Qinghe did not expect the other party to be so bold, blocking her on a road full of surveillance cameras. She had no time to react. Although she quickly turned the steering wheel and braked, she still crashed with a bang into the car in front of her.

”Mr. Chen, stay in the car and don’t move!” Moments later, Bai Qinghe had already drawn her Soft Sword and jumped out of the car.

The two cars stopped in the middle of the road.

Fortunately, it was early morning with no other cars; otherwise, the traffic would have been chaotic.

It seemed Su Jiu’er just wanted to scare Chen Ziran. After stopping the car, she also got out and put a mask on her face.

Seeing Bai Qinghe get out of the car, Su Jiu’er said in a deep voice, ”I have some questions for Chen Ziran. Stay out of this.”

Although Su Jiu’er was a bit surprised that Bai Qinghe got out of the car, she still said, ”You’re just a little girl, don’t make trouble for yourself.”

Seeing the other party was a woman, Bai Qinghe naturally connected her to the person who attacked the security guards during the day.

However, Bai Qinghe didn’t waste words: ”If you wanted to ask questions, you could have done it during the day. Is this how you ask questions now?”

Without another word, Bai Qinghe attacked.

The Soft Sword struck straight towards Su Jiu’er.

Su Jiu’er was stunned. She did not expect this little girl in front of her to have such skills. Her expression slightly changed: ”Wow, I didn’t expect the Chen Group to hide someone like you. I really underestimated you!”

As she spoke, Su Jiu’er jumped back quickly and drew a Nine-section Whip from her waist.

”However, no one is going to stop me from asking questions tonight!”

Crack!

The Nine-section Whip whipped through the air, making a series of cracking sounds.

In the next second, with a clang, the Nine-section Whip wrapped around the Soft Sword.

Bai Qinghe sneered and kicked towards Su Jiu’er’s chest.

Having just entered the second-rate master’s realm, Su Jiu’er realized after exchanging blows with Bai Qinghe that the latter was only a mid-grade third-rate master—she didn’t take her seriously.

But she didn’t expect that after Bai Qinghe’s kick missed, two scorpions sprang from her foot.

”Not good!” Su Jiu’er’s face changed dramatically.

This was the last thing she expected.

Because she was complacent, Su Jiu’er only focused on Bai Qinghe’s moves and didn’t notice the two scorpions. She barely dodged one, but the other bit her in the abdomen.

After a sharp pain, Su Jiu’er quickly retreated two steps. She wanted a quick victory but found her head dizzy and her body unsteady.

”So, it’s witchcraft!” Su Jiu’er was furious.

People from the Dragon Teeth had no positive feelings towards those who used witchcraft, especially the sorcery of the Witch Clan, which they despised.

Initially, Su Jiu’er wanted to continue attacking, but as her dizziness worsened, she realized that continuing to fight would not be beneficial for her.

”No wonder the Chen Group rose so quickly, using despicable methods!” She turned and rushed into her car, speeding away.

Admittedly, the SUV Su Jiu’er was driving had good performance; it could still drive even after the collision.

Bai Qinghe feared the enemy might be luring her away, so she didn’t dare to chase. After seeing Su Jiu’er leave, she quickly got back into the car and drove off.

”Sister Bai, are you okay?” Chen Ziran, having seen the fight, asked worriedly.

Bai Qinghe shook her head: ”Mr. Chen, I’m fine.”

Without saying much, Bai Qinghe immediately called Ye Guichen aside after returning home and whispered, ”We were attacked tonight.”

Ye Guichen, who had returned home, was startled upon hearing this: ”What happened?”

”Not quite clear, but the other party was poisoned by my scorpions. If she doesn’t get treated in time, she will likely die within three days,” Bai Qinghe explained her speculation to Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen nodded upon hearing this: ”I understand, thank you.”

Bai Qinghe’s scorpion poison was almost ineffective against Ye Guichen, but it was lethal to others, even some high-level masters.

As Bai Qinghe’s cultivation advanced, her scorpion poison had also become much stronger.

Although she knew the other party’s skill level was higher than hers, Bai Qinghe believed that with the scorpion poison, the opponent would not survive without timely treatment.

Meanwhile, Su Jiu’er also hurried back.

At first, she only felt a bit disoriented and unsteady while walking, but as time went on, her face turned flushed, her body became unbearably hot, and a large rash appeared where she had been bitten.

The rash spread rapidly, and it wouldn’t be long before it covered her whole body.

”A member of the Witch Clan!” Su Jiu’er’s first thought was that Bai Qinghe belonged to the Witch Clan.

But now was not the time to think about this.

She immediately burst into Su Ze’s room, using almost all her remaining strength, ”Brother, quick, save me!”

Su Ze had rented two rooms for them. While he hadn’t seen Su Jiu’er upon returning, he didn’t worry.

His sister had a high aptitude for martial arts but was too mischievous and usually capricious.

Because the task of investigating this time wasn’t considered dangerous, Su Ze brought Su Jiu’er along for experience.

As long as she didn’t cause any major trouble, Su Ze would turn a blind eye.

But just as he took off his shirt to take a shower, Su Ze suddenly heard a noise in the living room. He went out and was shocked: ”Jiu’er, what happened to you?”
