My Silly, Sweet Wife

The sudden appearance of people from the Eternal Life Hall caught everyone off guard.

Moreover, Ye Guichen had a faint feeling that the Eternal Life Hall was somehow connected to the Seven Kings.

Regarding the existence of the Seven Kings, Zhang Chonglou, who had lived for over a hundred years, surely knew quite a bit.

It was just the right time to ask Zhang Chonglou thoroughly, and if possible, inquire about what exactly the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique was.

In fact, to put it simply, Ye Guichen’s visit to the Heavenly Master Tao this time was mainly to extract all the knowledge from Zhang Chonglou’s mind.

Zhang Chongchen and his group had come by train, and Ye Guichen, being too lazy to drive, decided to take the train back with Zhang Chongchen, treating it as a leisurely scenic trip.

However, just as the two of them had seated themselves, Ye Guichen noticed someone smiling at him from the opposite seat.

”Miss Gongsun, what a coincidence?” Seeing Gongsun Fengying, Zhang Chongchen was taken aback.

”Yeah, quite the coincidence.” Gongsun Fengying replied perfunctorily to Zhang Chongchen, but her gaze remained fixed on Ye Guichen. ”Captain Ye, don’t you agree?”

Ye Guichen felt a headache. He didn’t believe that Gongsun Fengying just happened to be on the same train and sitting together by chance. ”What, are you also heading to the Heavenly Master Tao with us?”

Gongsun Fengying stood up, signaling to change seats with Zhang Chongchen.

Zhang Chongchen looked at Ye Guichen, winked twice, and said, ”I’ll go to the restroom, you guys go ahead and chat.”

Then, he stood up and left.

Ye Guichen was speechless.

Did Zhang Chongchen think there was something going on between him and Gongsun Fengying?

Gongsun Fengying was unceremonious, plopping down beside Ye Guichen. ”What, you don’t want to see me?”

Ye Guichen shook his head. ”No, why wouldn’t I want to see you?”

”Hehe, don’t deny it. You haven’t cured my mysterious illness yet and just leave it like that? Do you think that’s appropriate?” Gongsun Fengying scooted closer to Ye Guichen, nearly touching him.

Ye Guichen was unsure of Gongsun Fengying’s intentions and quickly said, ”I’ve already told my junior sister Linglong how to apply acupuncture to you, so she will help you with that in the coming days.”

”Tch, I don’t trust that little girl,” Gongsun Fengying said persistently. ”And since I’m also heading to the Heavenly Master Tao, might as well travel together. What, you’re not welcoming me?”

Ye Guichen spread his hands. ”Please, I don’t own the Heavenly Master Tao, how can I not welcome you?”

”Good to know!” Gongsun Fengying pouted, then turned her head towards the window. ”Captain Ye, although Zhu He is dead, my grandfather said that the people from the Eternal Life Hall aren’t easy to deal with. Don’t let your guard down just because you think they won’t act soon; I feel you’ve already caught the attention of many from the Eternal Life Hall.”

”Oh?” Ye Guichen looked at Gongsun Fengying. ”Why do you say that, Captain Gongsun? Could it be you’re accompanying me to the Heavenly Master Tao specially to protect me?”

”Don’t flatter yourself!” Gongsun Fengying didn’t expect Ye Guichen to be so thick-skinned, snorted, ”I’m just warning you, don’t get complacent. The people from the Eternal Life Hall are desperados with unconventional means who truly believe in the art of eternal life and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. So, I’m just giving you a heads up, don’t get any wrong ideas.”

Ye Guichen sighed. ”Alright, I thought you liked me and were worried about something happening to me.”

Gongsun Fengying swiftly turned her head, her eyes glaring at Ye Guichen like a calm autumn lake. ”Ye Guichen, do you think you’re charming, admired for both your medical and martial prowess, making many infatuated with you? That many women would fall for you upon meeting you? Are you proud and feel like you’re some sort of catch? Let me tell you, even if every man in the world passes away, I still wouldn’t like you, you narcissist!”

Ye Guichen was taken aback, surprised by Gongsun Fengying’s strong reaction. It was just a joke, was it necessary?

”Captain Gongsun, is it that time of the month for you?”

Gongsun Fengying didn’t expect Ye Guichen to be so brazen, and her initially serious face blushed red. ”You, you...”

She wanted to retort but didn’t know what to say at the moment.

Just then, a commotion erupted from the front carriage: ”Something’s wrong, someone fainted! Is there a doctor here? Please help!”

Many passengers quickly stood up, looking towards the source of the sound.

Ye Guichen also looked up, but the carriage was crowded, and he couldn’t see what was happening over there.

Gongsun Fengying spoke, ”Doctor Ye, aren’t you a Divine Doctor? This is your moment to shine, hurry up!”

Ye Guichen didn’t know how he had offended Gongsun Fengying, but as a doctor, he couldn’t stand by and do nothing. He shot Gongsun Fengying a look and quickly stood up, moving swiftly towards the scene of the incident.

Soon, he squeezed into the crowd.

Ye Guichen saw a woman sitting on the ground.

The woman appeared to be in her thirties, holding a child about four or five years old.

The child was convulsing, with purple lips, foaming at the mouth, and appeared to be losing consciousness.

The woman was crying out desperately, ”Save my child, I beg of you, save my child!”

The people around were also anxious.

”Is anyone a doctor? Please help, that child looks so pitiful.”

”Yes, please help.”

A crew member had already received the news and started announcing over the speaker.

Zhang Chongchen seemed to have heard the voice, making his way to Ye Guichen’s side. ”Brother Ye, that child looks pitiful, why aren’t you helping?”

”Hmph, maybe he’s just incapable.” Gongsun Fengying’s sarcastic voice rang out.

Ye Guichen had intended to help, but after observing for a moment, he inexplicably felt something odd.

”I’m a doctor, everyone, please make space and don’t block the air, let some fresh air for the child.”

At this moment, a middle-aged man ran over.

A crew member was following the middle-aged man.

Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s instructions, the crew member immediately began to clear the crowd. ”Everyone, please step back a bit, give the child some space, thank you.”

Soon, a large space opened up around them.

The middle-aged man crouched down and quickly checked the child’s eyelids. Seeing the pupils already dilated, he immediately said, ”This child is having a seizure, does anyone have silver needles? I need to perform acupuncture immediately.”

The woman looked helplessly at the middle-aged man. ”Doctor, will my child be alright?”

The middle-aged man shook his head. ”It’s okay, with a few needles, everything will be fine.”

He raised his head and asked again, ”Who has silver needles? This is about life and death, please lend them.”

Gongsun Fengying nudged Ye Guichen. ”Don’t you have them?”

Ye Guichen indeed carried silver needles with him, as it was common practice for most traditional Chinese doctors.

However, this middle-aged man, supposedly a doctor, didn’t bring silver needles and instead asked others for them.

Ye Guichen found it peculiar, but he still stepped forward and handed over his silver needles. ”I have.”

The middle-aged man snatched the box of needles, giving Ye Guichen a look like he was blaming him for not offering them sooner.
