My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Master Lu, if you are just here to welcome us tonight, we appreciate the thought.” Ye Guichen pushed Lv Liang’s hand away and turned to Su Jiu’er, ”If you’re not hungry, how about accompanying me to sample some special snacks in Jinling?”

Su Jiu’er didn’t understand Ye Guichen’s intentions but still nodded. ”Sure.”

Lv Liang hadn’t expected Ye Guichen to be so dismissive, his expression changed slightly but quickly put on a smile again. ”Haha, Brother Ye, if you really leave, Boss Duan would surely say I didn’t take good care of you! Maybe you think the food is taking too long, wait a moment, I’ll hurry them up. It’ll be quick, very quick.”

With that, he quickly stepped out of the private room.

As soon as Lv Liang left, Su Jiu’er couldn’t help but ask, ”Ye Guichen, what do you mean? We have a luxurious view platform here, and you insist on special snacks?”

Ye Guichen squinted his eyes and gently shook his head. ”I’m afraid it’s hard to get any useful information from Lv Liang.”

”Hmm?” Su Jiu’er wasn’t stupid; she furrowed her brows. ”Lv Liang is said to have a good relationship with Boss Duan. They often cooperate on his tasks and he even participated in the selection for the Dragon Teeth, though he was eliminated. But he’s never cut ties with the Dragon Teeth people. Do you suspect him?”

Ye Guichen said, ”I don’t know if there’s a problem or not. Although we’re unfamiliar here, relying solely on someone we don’t know for clues might yield nothing even after eight centuries.”

”Then, what do you plan to do?”

”Let’s wait and see.”

Ye Guichen spoke calmly, having already formed a rough plan in his mind.

They came to Jinling this time to unearth King Yan of the Yama Hall. If the chaos here was truly related to King Yan, uprooting him would be a joyous result.

Otherwise, if King Yan lived, he would always be a hidden threat.

Just when Ye Guichen and Su Jiu’er were talking, the door to the private room was suddenly slammed open.

A group of people barged in aggressively.

The burly leader, holding a large machete, cursed loudly as he entered, ”Damn, kid, you dare to mess with my woman! Do you want to live?”

The burly man pointed the tip of his machete at Ye Guichen’s forehead, looking fierce. ”Kneel, or I’ll cripple you. Let’s see how you continue to seduce my woman!”

Within no time, the private room was crowded with people.

Moreover, among them were quite a few third-rate martial artists.

Scanning the crowd, Ye Guichen couldn’t help but smile slightly.

This isn’t just a bunch of ordinary thugs.

Su Jiu’er looked shocked. ”Hey, what are you doing?”

”Little girl, what’s your relationship with him? He’s seducing my woman, have you been fooled by him?” The burly leader glanced at Su Jiu’er and shouted loudly.

People outside seemed to have heard the commotion, gathering more and more, buzzing with discussion.

”What? Seducing someone’s woman? That kid has no shame!”

”Yeah, look at him acting like nothing happened, it’s disgusting.”

”Little girl, don’t be deceived. People like him should be chopped into pieces. You must be in the dark, right?”

Many pointed fingers, making Ye Guichen the target of scorn.

Su Jiu’er heard the gossip and couldn’t help but look at Ye Guichen with a strange expression. ”Did you really seduce someone’s woman?”

Ye Guichen was speechless.

Anyone with a bit of sense would realize this was a setup. Seeing the situation, Su Jiu’er even began to doubt him after hearing the one-sided story.

Really brainless.

”Please, Su Jiu’er, I just arrived in Jinling. Who would I seduce?” Ye Guichen cast her a glance, then turned to the burly man. ”Brother, you must have mistaken me for someone else!”

”Mistaken?” The burly man snorted. ”Kid, you think you can dismiss me with a mistaken identity? That woman has already been disfigured by me, and I would recognize you even if you turned to ashes. Hurry up and kneel, I don’t want to waste words!”

Ye Guichen chuckled, stepping closer to the burly man. ”Take a closer look, are you sure it was me who touched your woman?”

”You...” The burly man saw Ye Guichen being so bold, not fearing his machete and insisting he check, his face showing a hint of panic.

But soon, he stiffened his neck. ”Yes, it was you! Kneel, or don’t blame me for being rude!”

”Oh, in that case, go ahead,” Ye Guichen saw that the burly man was determined and sat back, allowing him to make the move.

Those who came with the burly man were all furious seeing Ye Guichen’s behavior.

”Bro, this kid still won’t admit it!”

”Kill him!”

”Damn, to touch brother’s woman, has he lost his mind?”

”Exactly, let’s beat him up first!”

The group surged forward.

Seeing this, Su Jiu’er panicked. Just as she was about to stop them, Ye Guichen grabbed a cup from the table and lightly squeezed it, crushing the cup. ”Let’s see who dares to take another step!”

Those people were startled seeing Ye Guichen crushing a glass cup with one hand.

Amidst the crowd, several third-rate martial artists exchanged glances before stepping out and slashing at Ye Guichen, cursing, ”Moved against our big brother’s woman and still so arrogant, we’ll kill you today!”

Swish, swish, swish!

The blades roared with the wind.

Ye Guichen did not even lift his eyelids, flicked his wrist, and threw the glass shards out.

Thud, thud, thud!

Accompanied by several muffled sounds.

The few martial artists who held knives screamed, stepped back, and clutched their faces in agony.

Their faces were all pierced by glass shards, a bloody mess.

The leading burly man was stunned, not expecting Ye Guichen to be so fierce.

He swallowed, instinctively taking two steps back.

The ones who attacked earlier were all higher skilled than him. If he went up, it would be a death wish.

”It doesn’t matter who sent you, tell him to come at me directly instead of playing games like kids. It’s boring.” Ye Guichen spoke calmly, as if what he just did was a trivial matter.

”What’s going on? Who are you people?”

A voice of anger rang out.

Lv Liang, who had left earlier, squeezed into the private room, glanced at the burly man. ”Who are you?”

The burly man looked at Lv Liang and immediately pointed at Ye Guichen. ”This kid messed with my woman. We came to settle the score. He not only denies it but also attacked us!”

”You say Brother Ye messed with your woman?” Lv Liang was stunned, then coldly laughed. ”Nonsense! Brother Ye just arrived in Jinling, how would he know your woman? Get out, or I’ll kill you!”

”Lv Liang?”

”Are you Master Lv of the Nandu Martial Arts Hall?”

”Fine, for Master Lv’s sake, we’ll let it go today!”

The burly man took the chance to glare at Ye Guichen before turning and running.

Ye Guichen sneered, remaining silent.

However, Ye Guichen noticed that Lv Liang was constantly exchanging glances with the burly man earlier.

It seemed that the burly man was Lv Liang’s arrangement, probably trying to intimidate him.

”Brother Ye, I’m really sorry. I was out for a moment and didn’t expect this to happen. Are you alright?” After driving off the burly man and his gang, Lv Liang asked with concern.

Ye Guichen shook his head gently. ”Thank you for your care, Brother Lu.”

”Haha, this is my turf. Brother Ye, if you want to find women, why look for someone else’s woman? Just say the word, what kind of woman can’t I arrange?” Lv Liang patted his chest, speaking boldly.

In his words, he clearly implied that Ye Guichen was a womanizer.
