My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Master Ye, impressive! Do you also have a thing going on with Luo Qianqi?”

After parking the car, Feng Wuji looked at Ye Guichen with excitement, giving him a thumbs up.

It took just a few words to make the aggressive Luo Qianqi back down; this isn’t something an ordinary person could achieve.

Thinking it over, Feng Wuji could only assume that Luo Qianqi liked Ye Guichen; otherwise, it was inexplicable.

Ye Guichen rolled his eyes at Feng Wuji. ”Why are you so gossipy? Look at the mess you’ve caused, now everyone is staring at us. Just wait, more trouble is sure to come.”

Feng Wuji’s antics not only offended the security at Longjing Villa but also thoroughly offended everyone present.

However, seeing Luo Qianqi not pursuing the matter made everyone uneasy. They didn’t understand the relationship between Ye Guichen and Luo Qianqi, but if they found out that Luo Qianqi didn’t get along with Ye Guichen, they might roll up their sleeves and skin Feng Wuji alive.

Su Jiu’er, seeing Feng Wuji’s sleazy look, couldn’t help but sneer, ”Feng Wuji, what do you know? Mr. Ye is so amazing; what’s wrong with women liking him? Hmph, unlike you, always using underhanded tactics and sleazy looks. Just looking at you makes me sick!”

After Su Jiu’er’s rant, Feng Wuji stood there with his mouth open, looking bewildered.

He knew ever since he defeated Su Jiu’er, she hadn’t taken kindly to him, but she was overly protective of Ye Guichen, as if Ye Guichen had suddenly become her idol.

”Su Jiu’er, who doesn’t know what you’re thinking? Hmph, my master won’t take an apprentice, so give up on that idea.” Feng Wuji understood Su Jiu’er’s thoughts and immediately hit her with a remark, making Su Jiu’er stomp her foot in anger.

Ye Guichen couldn’t be bothered with them and walked straight to the antique auction venue.

The auction was scheduled to start at ten in the morning, and it was just after nine now. Although people were milling around, it hadn’t started yet.

However, Ye Guichen hadn’t even entered the auction when he saw a familiar figure from a distance.

That figure seemed deliberately disguised and quickly disappeared.

”Why is he here too?” Ye Guichen was puzzled and glanced at Su Jiu’er, suddenly asking, ”Where’s your brother?”

”Huh?” Su Jiu’er was startled, then shook her head. ”How would I know where he went? He’s been in Yun City, busy with who knows what every day.”

As if remembering something, Su Jiu’er looked at Ye Guichen with a mix of grievance and concern. ”Mr. Ye, though my brother spoke out of turn before, he didn’t mean any harm. He’s been protective of me since we were kids, just worried about me. You don’t still hold a grudge against him, do you?”

While speaking, Su Jiu’er shook Ye Guichen’s arm, her coquettish demeanor making Ye Guichen shiver with disgust.

”Stop, stop, you’d better stay the way you were. I was just asking, no other reason.” Ye Guichen said, walking quickly towards the auction venue, not wanting to waste any more words.

But as soon as he entered the auction venue, Ye Guichen felt several gazes on him.

He looked around and found many people seemingly looking at him with unfriendly eyes.

This feeling wasn’t new; ever since he had crippled Wen Daoxian, Ye Guichen felt there were more people around him.

He didn’t need to guess; these people were probably from the Azure Dragon Commerce.

Someone as cunning as Wen Daoxian likely had backup plans, and with Wen Daoxian suddenly gone, it was natural for people to start keeping an eye on him.

But these people hadn’t taken any rash actions yet, likely waiting for orders from Azure Dragon Commerce.

Ye Guichen pretended not to notice and didn’t care. If they dared to make a move, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill them.

At the same time, Luo Qianqi was sitting on a sofa angrily, twirling a water cup in her hand.

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment but spoke up, ”Miss Luo, do you want to deal with the person who offended Young Master An?”

The middle-aged man, named Lou Yunbai, was forty-seven years old, a genuine second-rate peak expert. Ever since following Luo Qianqi, he had been dutiful, always considering Luo Qianqi’s interests.

To outsiders, Lou Yunbai followed Luo Qianqi because she paid a high price; after all, someone of his caliber wasn’t easily hired by ordinary people.

But Luo Qianqi clearly felt that Lou Yunbai’s gaze towards her was a bit off.

Being astute, Luo Qianqi understood that Lou Yunbai had intentions towards her.

From what she knew, Lou Yunbai came from a humble background, with considerable skills. He once had a wife who died in childbirth, and since then, he worked as a bodyguard to earn commissions.

Lou Yunbai appeared well-groomed and didn’t talk much, but he was very close to Fan Zhidong, who was affiliated with the Luo Family.

Fan Zhidong was already a master, but even he said that Lou Yunbai was superior.

After separating from Ye Guichen in the tomb, Fan Zhidong understood Luo Qianqi’s thoughts. Knowing there would be disputes between the Luo Family and Ye Guichen, he introduced Lou Yunbai to Luo Qianqi and then left the Luo Family, citing old age as an excuse.

Luo Qianqi understood Fan Zhidong’s cautiousness and mocked him inwardly for being cowardly due to age.

How could Ye Guichen, a single person, contend with the entire Luo Family?

However, she didn’t stop Fan Zhidong. Seeing him introduce Lou Yunbai, a top-notch expert, she was delighted and let Fan Zhidong go.

From the first time she met Lou Yunbai, Luo Qianqi sensed that his gaze was like most men who looked at her, but she didn’t expose it. Instead, she would occasionally show off her figure and demeanor in front of him, sometimes even appearing in a robe, making light physical contact with him.

Sure enough, after some time, Luo Qianqi noticed a change in Lou Yunbai.

Whenever he saw her unhappy, he would frown, looking anxious.

Seeing Ye Guichen again today made Luo Qianqi quite irritable.

She didn’t want others to know what happened in the tomb. She thought the matter would be buried once Fan Zhidong left, but seeing Ye Guichen again made her fear he might reveal everything.

Since discovering the treasure in the tomb, Luo Qianqi’s status in the Luo Family had skyrocketed. Although some might have reservations, they were outwardly respectful, even her elder brother, the future heir, showed her respect.

Luo Qianqi thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.

But if people found out she traded 51% of the Luo Family’s assets for that prosperity, her status would plummet.

”Uncle Lou, it’s nothing.” Luo Qianqi looked up, smiled, and shook her head.

Lou Yunbai looked anxious, ”Miss Luo, if you want, I can kill those two right now!”
