My Silly, Sweet Wife

According to Zhao Erdan, it seems like a man named Yuan Shao, who appeared out of nowhere, forcefully acquired the entire herbal medicine street and is pressuring all the shops to close, intending to evict them all.

Many of the herbal shops are renting their properties, with some having signed ten-year leases that haven’t even expired yet, so naturally, they refuse to leave.

But Yuan Shao simply doesn’t listen to any nonsense and has one word for them: Scram!

Additionally, Yuan Shao has sent people to cause trouble on the herbal medicine street, preventing the shops from conducting their business normally.

After saying all this, Su Jiu’er was also infuriated: ”This is just too much! Yunji Hall hasn’t restocked any herbs in two days. We can still hold out for a few days with their inventory, but if we don’t get new herbs soon, our Medicinal Food Restaurant won’t even be able to open.”

Since it’s a Medicinal Food Restaurant, Chinese herbs are naturally the most crucial ingredients.

Without Chinese herbs, it wouldn’t be medicinal food at all.

Ye Guichen looked at Su Jiu’er’s angry expression and couldn’t help but find it a bit strange.

After all, with Su Jiu’er’s status, even if trouble arises, the Su Family and Dragon Teeth would back her up. If it gets serious, they could always resort to force.

”What, you don’t even dare to intervene?” Ye Guichen’s question made Su Jiu’er’s face turn red with anger: ”Who said I don’t dare? Hmph, I just don’t want to.”

After saying that, Su Jiu’er crossed her arms and turned her head to the side, seemingly sulking.

Zhao Erdan chuckled awkwardly: ”Boss, you might not know, but it seems like Yuan Shao has some skilled fighters under him. Yesterday, Miss Jiu’er got angry and wanted to cause trouble, but…”

”Hey, Brother Zhao, I was just going easy on them, okay? If it was a real fight, I could make them beg for mercy!” Seeing that Zhao Erdan was about to expose her embarrassing situation, Su Jiu’er quickly interrupted him: ”Hmph, if it weren’t for our rules, I would’ve taken care of them already.”

Before coming back, Ye Guichen had sent the Dragon Teeth members away.

Moreover, Duan Nanye had too many duties in the secular world to stay in Yun City for long periods.

Ever since he took Su Ze away, Duan Nanye only contacted Ye Guichen for special matters, leaving Su Jiu’er as the sole Dragon Teeth member in Yun City.

Seeing Su Jiu’er’s demeanor, it was evident she had suffered a setback against Yuan Shao and was upset about it.

Ye Guichen grew increasingly surprised.

He was quite aware of Su Jiu’er’s capabilities, and very few could defeat her.

Yuan Shao had skilled fighters under him?

Ye Guichen furrowed his brow: ”In that case, I’ll go take a look.”

After understanding the situation, Ye Guichen decided to see for himself.

Hearing that Ye Guichen was going, Su Jiu’er was excited: ”I’ll go too!”

Before Ye Guichen could respond, Su Jiu’er had already run off to start the car.

Ye Guichen shook his head, not expecting such trouble right after his return.

However, this matter concerned not just the Medicinal Food Restaurant but the entire herbal medicine street and even the development of Yun City. Ye Guichen couldn’t ignore it.

”Alright, you guys go ahead and do your own things!” Ye Guichen told Zhao Erdan and the others not to worry and then called Iron Hand, heading off with Su Jiu’er to the snack street.

Shang Wen Dong had already gone back, as there were many things to handle at Wendong Finance after his long absence.

Over half an hour later, Ye Guichen arrived at the herbal medicine street.

But before they could even park the car, a group of people rushed over, pointing at them and shouting: ”Get lost! No business is allowed here now, whether you’re buying or selling herbs, everyone get out!”

They were extremely arrogant and overbearing.

Su Jiu’er, gritting her teeth in anger, was about to jump out and take them down.

Ye Guichen shot Su Jiu’er a glance: ”Alright, calm down. Since you came with me, listen to me.”

Su Jiu’er immediately complied.

Duan Nanye had especially instructed Su Jiu’er to follow Ye Guichen’s lead before leaving.

Although Su Jiu’er felt it was a bit awkward, knowing Ye Guichen’s identity as the Grand Master, she was slightly surprised and had a bit more respect for him.

Still, Ye Guichen had seen her body and often teased her, so while outwardly indignant, Su Jiu’er ultimately obeyed with a reluctant ”Oh.”

Ye Guichen jumped out of the car and looked at the leader of the group.

One glance was enough for Ye Guichen to tell that the man was just a thug, slightly tougher than ordinary people, but not a martial artist.

”What, we can’t even come and take a look?” Ye Guichen asked with a smile.

Ye Guichen was too lazy to argue with them and was about to order Iron Hand to take them down when a commotion erupted from inside the herbal medicine street.

”Damn it, why won’t you let us open our shops?” someone shouted, rushing out with a machete: ”You won’t let us do business, yet you’re not refunding our rent or losses. You’re robbers, I’ll fight you!”

That person was clearly a shop owner from the herbal medicine street, frustrated from being unable to conduct business and losing money daily.

As time passed, the herbs in their inventory rotted, causing losses potentially worth hundreds of thousands.

Hearing the shouts from inside, the people blocking Ye Guichen glared at them and rushed into the street.

The shop owner screamed and cursed, looking pitiful.

Ye Guichen didn’t expect them to be so brazen and was about to order Iron Hand and Su Jiu’er to help when two vans pulled up behind them.

”Quick, let’s fight them!” a woman’s voice shouted from the vans.

A mob rushed into the herbal medicine street, attacking the thugs harassing the shops.

Ye Guichen turned to see that the person shouting was none other than Li Ruoxuan.

Li Ruoxuan hadn’t noticed Ye Guichen. She was frowning, holding a machete in one hand, dressed in a trench coat, exuding a leader aura.

After shouting, she also charged in with her machete.

By this time, the shop owner wielding the machete had been beaten badly, cursing with his head in his hands.

Seeing Li Ruoxuan’s people arrive, the thugs seemed to realize something and retreated to one side, standing off against Li Ruoxuan’s group.

A big guy with a fierce look recognized Li Ruoxuan and, pointing at her, snarled: ”Little wench, how dare you come?”

”Haha, I think she wants something!” The thug next to him jeered, spouting vulgarities at Li Ruoxuan.

Li Ruoxuan’s men were infuriated, their eyes red, shouting: ”Sister Xuan, just give the word, damn it, we’ll fight them!”

Li Ruoxuan helped the injured shop owner up, checked his wounds, then raised her head to glare at the thugs: ”Don’t push us too far. This is Yun City, not a place for you to run wild!”
