My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Gufang?” The moment he heard those two words, Zhou Huairen immediately tensed up.

This Gufang is definitely not just the simple doctor he appears to be; Zhou Huairen had witnessed his skills firsthand before.

Gufang had escaped, and Zhou Huairen was equally worried that he would come back for revenge. But he never expected that Gufang would actually dare to call back.

”Mr. Ye...” Zhou Huairen gazed at Ye Guichen questioningly, unsure how to respond. Ye Guichen nodded, ”Answer it.”

Zhou Huairen answered the phone, ”What do you want?”

Gufang had killed Zhou Haijun. If it weren’t for Ye Guichen, the entire Zhou family might have perished at his hands. Therefore, the Zhou family and Gufang were sworn enemies.

But the opponent was too powerful, and Zhou Huairen knew that revenge wouldn’t be easy. Even though Ye Guichen could help, the Zhou family already owed Ye Guichen too much and simply couldn’t ask him to seek revenge for them.

Now that Gufang made another call, it was obvious he had no good intentions.

Gufang’s voice on the other end was cold and venomous, ”You old thing, I killed Zhou Haijun for you. Now there’s no one left to vie for the Zhou family’s assets. Shouldn’t you be thanking me?”

”You...” Zhou Huairen hadn’t expected Gufang to be so shameless. He was the one who previously wanted to seize the Zhou family’s assets! Angrily, he said, ”Haijun is my son. You killed him and now you say something like this? What exactly do you want?”

”Heh heh, I don’t want anything!” Gufang’s voice was filled with gnashing teeth, ”Fengjiao is dead, and I will make your family pay with their lives. Don’t think that just because I ran away, you’re safe. I’m calling to tell you that from today onwards, you’ll live in a nightmare, tortured daily by me. And as for that Ye guy, I’ll make everyone around him live in fear, never at peace.”

The call was on speaker, so Ye Guichen also heard Gufang’s words.

Ye Guichen grabbed the phone and said sternly, ”Gufang, I gave you a chance. You’d better come back and admit your wrongs willingly, or if I catch you, I’ll make you wish you were dead!”

”Boy, at a time like this, you still dare to threaten me?” Gufang’s mad laughter was terrifying, ”Do you really think your ability to fight and kill makes you invincible? Haven’t you heard the saying: ’An open attack is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against’? You ruined our plans; just wait, I’ll make sure you never sleep soundly again.”

”Is that so?” Ye Guichen’s eyes were full of murderous intent, ”I detest being threatened. Since that’s the case, let’s cut the chatter. Just you wait, I’ll find you soon!”

”Heh heh, fine, come find me if you have the guts!”

Bang!

Gufang hung up the phone directly, not worried at all about Ye Guichen finding him.

Zhou Huairen looked at Ye Guichen, with a troubled expression, ”Mr. Ye, I’m really sorry for getting you involved in this matter.”

Zhou Huairen knew all too well that once someone like Gufang escaped, it would be very difficult to catch him again. The fact that he dared to make this call meant he was not afraid of being found.

Ye Guichen chuckled, ”Mr. Zhou, don’t worry. That guy won’t be at ease for long.”

”But...”

”It’s okay. However, just in case they come looking for trouble in the next few days, you should be cautious.” Ye Guichen wanted to help the Zhou family, but he couldn’t be everywhere at once. It was impossible for him to stay here continually. Besides, at this moment, even the Jixiang Noodle House might be under Gufang’s surveillance, targeting those who watch over it.

Oh, Feng Wuji.

Ye Guichen’s eyes lit up.

After all, Feng Wuji was a notable figure in Yanjing, accompanied by martial arts bodyguards. It shouldn’t be a problem for him to stay here for a few days.

”Mr. Zhou, your place won’t be safe until we catch Gufang. How about I have someone stay here for a few days?”

Zhou Huairen understood Ye Guichen’s intention immediately and gratefully said, ”Mr. Ye, you have issues on your end too...”

”It’s fine, Mr. Zhou, don’t worry.” Ye Guichen reassured him with a smile, ”But the guy I know might be unreliable in speech, though he has skilled protectors around him. Whatever he says, just ignore it.”

”Of course, of course.” Zhou Huairen waved his hand quickly.

These people were here to protect them; how could he dislike their way of talking?

Very quickly, Ye Guichen dialed Feng Wuji’s number, ”How many experts did you bring to Yanjing this time?”

”Huh?” Feng Wuji was puzzled but responded honestly, ”Actually, not many, just about ten or so. Most are third-rate experts, with only two second-rate experts. Sir, why are you asking?”

Ye Guichen was speechless.

Being wealthy really made a difference.

Feng Wuji was useless in martial arts, yet he traveled with so many experts. If Ye Guichen had reliable personnel, he wouldn’t have had to ask.

”Okay, bring all your men to Longhu Villa immediately, and stay there for the next few days.” Ye Guichen commanded directly.

Feng Wuji, a smart guy, quickly realized something was wrong but didn’t hesitate, ”Understood.”

Right now, Feng Wuji wanted to impress Ye Guichen as much as possible. Since Ye Guichen gave orders, he wouldn’t refuse them.

After making arrangements for the Zhou family, Ye Guichen didn’t linger. He returned to Jixiang Noodle House and specifically called Blood Rose over.

Certain things couldn’t be explained over the phone. The emergence of Gufang involved the antique conference, and Ye Guichen felt there must be someone behind Gufang, so this time he would likely need to summon the Heavenly God Temple members.

”Boss, what matter is so important?” Blood Rose immediately sensed trouble upon seeing Ye Guichen and quickly asked.

Ye Guichen stayed in his room, sitting on the sofa, and gestured for Blood Rose to sit as well.

Blood Rose hesitated but eventually sat beside Ye Guichen.

Then Ye Guichen said, ”You know about the twin heroes of tomb raiding, right?”

”Of course.” Blood Rose replied curiously, ”Why are you suddenly asking about them?”

Ye Guichen didn’t answer but instead asked Blood Rose, ”Who among our people is near Yun City and has the time to come here?”

”Well...” Blood Rose thought for a moment, ”Aside from Greedy Wolf, Ti’er Taoist seems to be quite free. I heard he recently became a guest at some wealthy family, enjoying good food and drink every day.”

Ye Guichen’s face darkened, ”He’s a second-rate peak expert, yet he’s still idle, doing fortune-telling and divination?”

Blood Rose shook her head and laughed bitterly, ”Boss, you know he’s either fortune-telling or on the way to fortune-telling. You haven’t summoned him, so with nothing to do, what else can he do?”

Ye Guichen was speechless. If it weren’t for Ti’er Taoist’s exceptional divination skills and his mastery in martial arts, Ye Guichen wouldn’t have recruited him into the Heavenly God Temple.

Nonetheless, this could work.

”Alright, have him come to Yun City as soon as possible.” Ye Guichen paused and then continued his orders, ”And you, find out where Gufang, one of the twin tomb raiders, is currently located.”

Blood Rose stood up immediately and said sincerely, ”Got it.”
