My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Brother Ye, in just two days, can you really discover the murderer?” On the way back, Wang Chaoyang asked Ye Guichen with worry.

According to what he knew, the killer seemed extremely familiar with the terrain of Guanghan Palace and had an intimate knowledge of the movements of Zeng Chang and Cao Xiu.

No one saw how the killer entered that day, only the traces of a crossbow were found at the scene.

Other than that, nothing was known.

What’s even stranger is that all the surveillance cameras were completely wiped during that time.

Just from this point alone, it could be proven that the other side had considerable power.

But why go to such great lengths to frame Ye Guichen? What do they stand to gain?

Duan Nanye echoed the same concern, ”Indeed, Guanghan Palace is the territory of the Martial Arts Association. By doing this, the opponent is trying to push you to a point of no return against the Martial Arts Association. In all of Jinling, very few people can pull this off. But precisely because of this, finding the murderer might be extremely difficult.”

Ye Guichen smiled and said, ”Brother Wang, Brother Duan, thanks for today. As for the rest, don’t worry, I can handle it myself.”

Seeing that Ye Guichen was unwilling to say more, Wang Chaoyang could only sigh, ”Then for the next two days, I’ll send someone to protect you. Just in case the Martial Arts Association makes another move in the dark, it’s good to have some precautions.”

Duan Nanye quickly agreed, ”Yes, yes, and I’ll have the brothers from Dragon Teeth protect you as well.”

Ye Guichen waved his hand, ”It’s really not necessary. You all should just tend to your own business. When this is over, I’ll treat you to a drink.”

After that, he said to the driver, ”Driver, please pull over by the roadside.”

The car stopped.

Saying goodbye to Wang Chaoyang and Duan Nanye, Ye Guichen then left with Shang Wen Dong.

Wang Chaoyang and Duan Nanye exchanged glances and both showed bitter smiles.

”This matter doesn’t seem as simple as it appears on the surface. Can Brother Ye handle it?” Duan Nanye took out two cigarettes and handed one to Wang Chaoyang, ”Brother Wang, now Brother Ye is deliberately keeping his distance from us. When we try to get close, he purposely avoids giving us a chance. What do you think?”

Wang Chaoyang took the cigarette, lit it, and took a puff, ”Brother Duan, I actually understand Doctor Ye’s intentions. Just take our Jinling Prince Mansion for example, we’ve just gone through a great difficulty. This matter being done so secretly implies that there’s likely someone orchestrating things behind the scenes. At a time like this, involving our Jinling Prince Mansion would definitely not be a good thing for us.”

”As for Dragon Teeth, I don’t know much, but from the looks of it, Doctor Ye seems confident. However, regardless of what he says, we still have to keep an eye on things in the shadows. Who knows if that Zuo Zongsheng guy might try something dirty.”

Duan Nanye nodded deeply, ”Exactly, Zuo Zongsheng has always been arrogant and domineering. Today he lost a finger and got a cut on his face, such a huge humiliation; he will surely seek revenge at the first opportunity. Moreover, the big martial arts competition is coming soon. If something happens to Brother Ye before then, not only will our chances in the competition diminish, but even Boss Mo won’t spare us.”

The two fell silent.

Ye Guichen naturally paid no mind to Wang Chaoyang and Duan Nanye’s thoughts.

In truth, this matter wouldn’t be too hard to find clues if thought through carefully.

Besides, Lv Liang was being such a busybody. Though there’s an element of revenge, jumping out at this time naturally makes people think he is involved.

But Ye Guichen also understood that someone like Lv Liang, who shuffles between different backers, could hardly have orchestrated such an assassination.

The only possibility was that Lv Liang found a new backer.

It would be easy to pry information out of Lv Liang, but much harder to find his backer.

Mysteriously, Ye Guichen cast his gaze upon the Azure Dragon Commerce.

But upon further reflection, it seemed unlikely.

The Azure Dragon Commerce had suffered deaths and injuries, and internal strife likely hadn’t fully settled. How could they have the leisure to create trouble for him?

With the mindset of ”better to kill wrongly than to let go,” after getting out of the car, Ye Guichen directly instructed Shang Wen Dong to investigate the current situation of the Azure Dragon Commerce. Then he took out his mobile phone and called Ye Ying, instructing, ”Get me all the surveillance cameras around Guanghan Palace and check for any suspicious people before and after the incident.”

After arranging everything, Ye Guichen headed straight for the martial arts hall.

Meanwhile.

In the VIP ward of the hospital.

After sending away the beauties who were accompanying Wang Tianxing, Leng Bosun finally approached him with the utmost respect, ”Chairman Tianxing, under my careful arrangement, the Martial Arts Association has now targeted Ye Guichen. Moreover, Zuo Chunqiu specifically sent his favorite son, Zuo Zongsheng, to handle this matter. Heh, that Ye boy definitely can’t escape this time.”

Wang Tianxing, full of satisfaction, sat on the bed, leaned against the chair back, smoking a cigarette leisurely, ”Secretary Leng, what do you think happened to that Feng protector, to have suddenly disappeared? Do you think something happened to him?”

Leng Bosun shook his head and laughed, ”Chairman Tianxing, you’re overthinking. Someone like Feng Hu is unlikely to encounter any accidents. He probably left due to some urgent matter. It’s just a pity; I thought Feng Hu could have killed Ye Guichen. It’s also Ye Guichen’s good luck. Now with the Martial Arts Association involved, we don’t need to do anything. Heh, by that time, Ye Guichen will surely be dead with no place to be buried.”

Wang Tianxing did not doubt Leng Bosun’s words. After all, Feng Hu was someone that even his father, Wang Xiong, treated with caution and certainly wasn’t an ordinary character.

His silent disappearance now was surely due to urgent matters.

Otherwise, if Feng Hu got involved, Ye Guichen would probably already be dead several times over.

”Hmm, Secretary Leng, you are right.” Wang Tianxing seemed very satisfied with his current state. His health had significantly improved, and he was somewhat looking forward to returning to the Azure Dragon Commerce to experience the reverence from his subordinates, ”By the way, Secretary Leng, has the internal situation of the Azure Dragon Commerce been mostly resolved by now?”

Leng Bosun nodded, ”Chairman Tianxing, rest assured. The former chairman only has you as his son, and no one dares to utter half a word of dissent. With your talent, it will be easy to command loyalty. Of course, there are still some who think you are too young to hold the position, but don’t worry. With me here, they’ll fall in line.”

Wang Tianxing was very satisfied with Leng Bosun’s reply. He straightened his body, grabbed Leng Bosun’s hand, ”Secretary Leng, you’ve done so much for me. Once I’m discharged, I feel that keeping you as a secretary is a waste of your talents. I’ll make you the First Vice Chairman. How about that?”

Leng Bosun was both flattered and fearful, quickly getting up and speaking cautiously, ”Chairman Tianxing, you flatter me. As a secretary, I’m forever a servant of the Wang Family. I dare not entertain any such presumptions.”
