My Silly, Sweet Wife

Gongsun Zhengxing heard this and couldn’t help but show a look of realization. He understood Huang Fuqi’s meaning and nodded slightly, but he still expressed his concern, ”Mr. Shier, I understand what you’re saying, but since we are penetrating the main base of the Eternal Life Hall, it will be extremely dangerous. How can we gather so many elite fighters in such a short time?”

Huang Fuqi replied indifferently, ”In fact, Lord Military God already has someone in mind.”

As he spoke, he glanced in the direction where Gongsun Fengying had just left.

Gongsun Zhengxing followed Huang Fuqi’s gaze and suddenly slapped his forehead, ”Mr. Shier, are you talking about my daughter? That girl Fengying?”

Huang Fuqi nodded slightly, ”That’s right, Miss Gongsun is indeed one of the candidates. But because this mission is extremely important, Lord Military God has also contacted the Daoist sect, hoping they will send some elites to join forces to penetrate the main base of the Eternal Life Hall. And as far as I know, unquestionably the best from the Daoist sect should be Master Zhang’s great disciple, Yang Hongfu.”

Gongsun Zhengxing knew he had no reason to refuse and did not try to shirk it, ”I am honored for my daughter to be appreciated by Lord Military God. I am also aware of Master Yang’s skills. Since he is Master Zhang’s great disciple, his means are undoubtedly impressive. Moreover, regarding the Wugu techniques, Master Yang is naturally the best choice, but the rest of the candidates…”

”Boss Gongsun, this is the second matter I have to discuss. In fact, the reason I came to Quanzhou this time is for a specific person.”

”Who?” Gongsun Zhengxing was curious. It was already surprising that Huang Fuqi, as Mr. Shier, specifically sought out his daughter, but from Huang Fuqi’s tone, it seemed Gongsun Fengying was just a secondary goal.

And the actual person he was looking for seemed even more valued by Lord Military God.

Huang Fuqi did not keep him guessing and softly uttered three words, ”Ye Guichen.”

”Ye Guichen?”

Gongsun Zhengxing had heard of this name before.

He first heard it after the last martial arts competition ended.

It is said that this Ye Guichen single-handedly defeated Caesar of Atlantis, showing astonishing combat power, even Gongsun Fengying was humbled before him.

However, Gongsun Zhengxing always maintained a skeptical attitude.

It is said that this Ye Guichen is only in his twenties. Even with high cultivation and strong martial arts, there is a limit. Could he truly defy the heavens?

”Mr. Shier, do you mean that Ye Guichen is in Quanzhou?” Gongsun Zhengxing was unaware of the events at Lingquan Villa.

The Heavenly Master Tao had completely locked down the information about Lingquan Villa to avoid alerting the enemy, so it’s normal that it didn’t reach Gongsun Zhengxing’s ears.

At this moment, the sound of the iron gate opening came from outside.

An off-road vehicle drove in.

Seeing the car, Gongsun Zhengxing nodded at Huang Fuqi and hurriedly greeted, ”Father, you’ve returned?”

As soon as the car stopped, Gongsun Zhengxing immediately rushed to the rear door and proactively pulled it open.

Although he was strict with Gongsun Fengying, he was also very afraid of his father, Gongsun Zhi.

However, after opening the car door, he found a young man sitting in the seat where Gongsun Zhi originally sat.

The young man looked not much older than Gongsun Fengying.

Yet, Gongsun Zhi seemed to sit beside this young man as though he were a mere companion.

This surprised and displeased Gongsun Zhengxing.

Why was he opening the door for a young man?

However, in front of Gongsun Zhi, Gongsun Zhengxing did not show it. After a brief moment of surprise, he quickly came to his senses, ”Father, who is this young friend?”

”Haha, Zhengxing, since you’re back, let’s have dinner together tonight.” Gongsun Zhi laughed heartily, then opened the car door and got out himself. Seeing another person in the courtyard, he asked quickly, ”Oh, Zhengxing, who is this?”

Gongsun Zhengxing glanced skeptically at Ye Guichen. Seeing that Gongsun Zhi didn’t want to say anything, he didn’t ask further and quickly introduced, ”Father, this is one of Lord Military God’s underlings, the Twelfth Grand Protector, Huang Fuqi, Mr. Shier.”

Gongsun Zhi was somewhat surprised after hearing the introduction, but he did not show much enthusiasm. He simply nodded slightly at Huang Fuqi, then stepped forward to warmly pull Ye Guichen out of the car, ”Come, come, come, let’s go inside.”

As he walked past Gongsun Zhengxing, he didn’t forget to say, ”You don’t have to mind us, just accompany Mr. Shier. We will entertain ourselves. By the way, where is that girl Fengying?”

Gongsun Zhengxing was a bit confused, pointing to the position of the kitchen inside the house, ”That girl usually does nothing but train. I don’t know what’s going on today, but she went to the kitchen.”

Gongsun Zhengxing felt that these two—the grandfather and the grandson—were acting weird today, but it was hard to ask too many questions in front of Huang Fuqi.

Moreover, he understood his father’s temper was eccentric and never cared about the other’s status.

Even when facing Zhang Chonglou, Gongsun Zhi was never courteous.

But today, it was as if the sun had risen in the west. Gongsun Zhi not only allowed a young man to sit in the most honored position in the car, but he also seemed to consider it a great honor for the young man to be their guest at home. With Mr. Shier from Lord Military God’s ranks, he only nodded without further words.

Who is that kid?

Feeling bewildered, Gongsun Zhengxing awkwardly smiled at Huang Fuqi, ”Mr. Shier, my father is like this, please don’t mind him.”

Huang Fuqi did not recognize Ye Guichen and was now a bit curious about Ye Guichen’s identity.

Recalling the appearance of Gongsun Fengying earlier, he couldn’t help but have a sudden realization, ”Boss Gongsun, that young friend just now, could he be the boyfriend you found for Miss Gongsun?”

This was the only explanation that could explain Gongsun Zhi’s behavior.

After all, as people get older, they want to hold their great-grandchildren sooner.

Gongsun Fengying was not young, and it was time for her to get married. If there was a young man who caught his eye, naturally they would try to matchmake.

Gongsun Zhengxing was extremely embarrassed; he himself did not know what the matter was.

”Cough cough, I also don’t know. But that girl Fengying has too high a standard, I’m afraid she wouldn’t fancy anyone. Although I don’t know that young man, I didn’t feel anything outstanding about him, probably just catering to my father’s temperament.”

Huang Fuqi also didn’t want to probe too much into the other’s family matters. Seeing they had guests, it was inappropriate to linger, so he cupped his hands towards Gongsun Zhengxing, ”Boss Gongsun, Lord Military God’s intention is to quickly form the Dragon Hidden Team. I still need to go to Qingcheng Mountain to have a word with Master Zhang. However, Lord Military God also doesn’t want to force anyone. It still depends on Miss Fengying’s wishes. If Miss Gongsun doesn’t wish to join, that’s fine too. Please convey this to Miss Gongsun. And regarding that guy called Ye Guichen, I hope Boss Gongsun won’t disclose it to anyone for the time being. Considering the importance of this matter, I am here to verify some rumors. Although that Ye Guichen has exceptional aspects, if he is not as reputed, it could cause unnecessary trouble.”

Gongsun Zhengxing understood Huang Fuqi’s intention and quickly nodded, ”Rest assured, Mr. Shier, being cautious is certainly a good approach.”
