My Silly, Sweet Wife

Wang Ying turned his head to the side: ”What good would it do me if you got into trouble? Hmph, but as a friend, I still want to remind you of one thing: Never forget the saying ’There is always someone bigger than you, and there are always skies beyond skies.’ Even if you manage to suppress the Martial Arts Association and overshadow the Chinese Medicine Association, and even disregard the Azure Dragon Commerce, there are some people you can never touch.”

Ye Guichen picked up a toothpick and held it in his mouth: ”Are you reminding me that I shouldn’t have any fantasies about Murong?”

”Good that you understand.” Wang Ying did not argue: ”Even though my grandfather values you, let me tell you, while he is known as the Jinling King and is a ruler in the underground world of Jinling, in front of the Mu Family, he’s still a small figure. If the Mu Family wished, they could easily crush the Jinling Prince Mansion.”

”To be honest, I’ve known Murong for some time now and understand her temperament. In the past, she never paid attention to any man, but I think she’s serious this time. However, you already have a fiancée. Besides the fact that the Mu Family won’t accept your background, if they find out you are still entangling with Murong despite having a fiancée, you will be in deep trouble.”

Ye Guichen looked innocent: ”For goodness’ sake, there’s nothing between Murong and me.”

”Tsk!” Wang Ying’s face was full of disbelief: ”Everyone says when a man chases a woman, it’s like a mountain, but when a woman chases a man, it’s like a veil. With Murong being so beautiful and from such a frighteningly powerful family, she actively goes after you, and you still dare say you aren’t moved? Hmph, men are all the same – they say one thing and mean another! But I want to remind you, don’t keep any fantasies. I admit you can fight, but sometimes fighting doesn’t solve the problem.”

”From what you’re saying, even if I said I had no feelings for Murong, you wouldn’t believe me, right?” Ye Guichen replied helplessly.

Wang Ying curled his lips: ”Whether you have feelings, you know in your heart. If you really can latch onto the Mu Family, you could reach heights others could never reach in a lifetime.”

”No one in the world can refuse such a temptation. Whether you’re playing hard to get with Murong or truly have no feelings for her as you say, that’s not the point. The point is you must eliminate the Mu Family’s doubts about you and let them know you have self-awareness. And you need to make Murong give up, but you can’t bring it up yourself; otherwise, it will be a loss of face for the Mu Family.”

Ye Guichen turned to stare at Wang Ying, ”You wouldn’t be a spokesperson hired by the Mu Family, would you? Ha, ha, asking me to stay away from Murong while preserving their face? What about my face? Isn’t it important?”

”Hey, I’m talking to you nicely, don’t be ungrateful!” Hearing the sarcasm in Ye Guichen’s words, Wang Ying’s gaze faltered.

The Mu Family had indeed sought her out to be a spokesperson.

But being exposed by Ye Guichen made Wang Ying feel like she betrayed him.

She wanted to argue, but had no words to defend herself.

”Anyway, I’ve said what I needed to. What you do and how you do it is up to you!” Wang Ying said, then briskly walked towards the martial arts school.

Ye Guichen sighed and looked at Wang Ying’s back, murmuring: ”Old Mu, you and your family are all the same. Back then, you prided yourself on being invincible with your poison techniques, but it was only after being beaten badly by me that you admitted defeat. It seems your family has inherited your arrogance, thinking you’re above everyone else. Tsk, but in my eyes, what’s the difference between you and the multitudes?”

Spitting out the toothpick, Ye Guichen had no intention of caring about the Mu Family’s opinions of him or whether they liked him.

Not to mention that he didn’t like Murong, even if he did, he would act based on his feelings. A mere Mu Family wouldn’t have the power to dictate him.

Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Ye Guichen was about to head to the martial arts school when he received a call from Duan Nanye.

”Brother Ye, we’ve found where Leng Wencheng is hiding. Although our people have surrounded them, but...” Duan Nanye’s voice trembled, indicating that the Dragon Teeth had suffered injuries.

”Where is it?” Ye Guichen asked without hesitation.

The Dragon Teeth were helping him find Leng Wencheng, and if more people died, Ye Guichen wouldn’t be able to bear it.

After struggling to give an address, Duan Nanye said sternly: ”Brother Ye, these people are very terrifying, and we don’t think we can hold out much longer. If you have any experts to deal with them, bring them along.”

”I’ll head over now.” Ye Guichen replied without further ado, hanging up and driving directly to the address given by Duan Nanye.

Wang Tianxing had Shui Liao’s protection, so there shouldn’t be any immediate danger. Ma Xiaoling was with Chen Ziran, so they should be fine too.

This morning, Chen Ziran received a call from Wang Tianxing, saying he had arranged for someone to discuss the Dragon Tomb Peak collaboration project with Chen Ziran.

Ye Guichen believed Wang Tianxing was quickly engaging in cooperation with Chen Ziran to show him.

Regarding security, Wang Tianxing should also consider it.

Also, the martial arts school and medicine hall shouldn’t have any issues.

As long as they could capture Leng Wencheng, it would ease his concerns.

Speeding through the streets, Ye Guichen arrived at an abandoned building on the outskirts of the city in under twenty minutes.

Seeing Ye Guichen arriving, Duan Nanye hurried to greet him. But noticing Ye Guichen came alone, he frowned: ”Brother Ye, did you bring anyone else? It will be hard to deal with these people alone!”

Then he pointed towards the abandoned building and explained: ”We found this place early this morning. Leng Wencheng and the Leng Family’s Eight Heroes have been living here for some time. After discovering them, we didn’t dare act rashly, wanting to assess the situation first. But an hour ago, Leng Wencheng noticed us and captured our scouts.”

”Now we don’t dare act impulsively. Look over there, two of the Leng Family’s Eight Heroes are provoking our men. Several of our Dragon Teeth fighters have already been injured.”

Ye Guichen looked up and indeed saw two of the Leng Family’s Eight Heroes clad in armor, standing outside the abandoned building without fear of being attacked.

The building was half-completed, just a frame surrounded by desolation; it must be an abandoned project.

”Let’s go and take a look first.” Ye Guichen said, swiftly heading towards the abandoned building.

Duan Nanye wanted to say more but seeing Ye Guichen’s calm demeanor, he followed him while signaling the Dragon Teeth to be ready to act at any moment.

”Haha, what bullshit Dragon Teeth! All of you are just cowards!”

”Come on over, let me crush your heads!”

”You think you can touch our master? Do you have the skill?”
