My Silly, Sweet Wife

Ye Guichen just hung up the phone with Feng Wuji, when Su Wu’s call came in: ”Brother Ye, have you heard?”

”Are you talking about Shen Wanzhong marrying Wu Nuannuan?” Ye Guichen asked.

Su Wu hesitated briefly and then said, ”That’s right, and the Wu Family has announced its independence from our Su Family’s jurisdiction. They want to compete with my godfather for the title of Sunan King. I also heard that the Wu Family plans to deal with all the medicine halls of the Shennong Sect. Shen Wanzhong even plans to target you. What’s your plan?”

Ye Guichen naturally understood the meaning of Su Wu’s call.

It seems now that the Wu Family is already tied with the Shen Family.

The Su Family and Ye Guichen have inexplicably become tied together as well.

Furthermore, having witnessed Ye Guichen’s skills, Su Wu no longer regards Ye Guichen as a peer but as a senior.

Therefore, he wasn’t as rash as the Feng Family, immediately targeting the Wu Family. Instead, he first sought Ye Guichen’s opinion.

Ye Guichen chuckled and said, ”Isn’t the current situation clear? Let’s set aside how Wu Nuannuan managed to hook up with Shen Wanzhong. The key issue now is actually the Shen Family. The Wu Family naively believes they’ve latched onto the big leg of the Shen Family, revealing their hidden ambitions. Whether they’re targeting your Su Family or the Shennong Sect, they’re just exploiting their power. But currently, the Shen Family’s reach hasn’t extended to the southwestern lands. As long as your Su Family shows a bit of strength, you’re not afraid of the Wu Family. They can’t stir up much trouble.”

Upon hearing this, Su Wu immediately nodded: ”While that may be, how do we deal with the Shen Family?”

”Haha, how to deal with them?” Ye Guichen sneered: ”Someone is willing to pay such a high price for my life, even wanting me destitute. Do you think I’d just sit idle? Of course, I’m going to meet Shen Wanzhong the Elder.”

”What? You want to visit the Shen Family in Tianjing?” Su Wu was taken aback and warned, ”Ye Guichen, I know you’re formidable, and perhaps now even at the Grandmaster Realm. But the Shen Family is one of the four major families in Tianjing, and I’ve heard they also have ties to some hidden powerful families. If you go, wouldn’t that be walking right into the lion’s den?”

”Walking into the lion’s den?” Ye Guichen laughed unexpectedly: ”Su Wu, it seems you haven’t figured out one thing. Think about it: when a wolf enters a sheepfold, should it be called a massacre, or should it be called walking into the lion’s den?”

Su Wu felt Ye Guichen’s words were somewhat exaggerated: ”Brother Ye, I understand your meaning and your skills. You may be a wolf, but the Shen Family is definitely not sheep. Your analogy is just not valid!”

”Haha, alright, Su Wu, it’s not like we met under peaceful circumstances. Your Su Family just needs to take care of the Shennong Sect’s business in the southwestern region. I trust you hold no fear of the Wu Family. As for the Shen Family, naturally, I’ll handle them. Once the Shen Family is subdued by me, the Wu Family will be asking for mercy from you.”

Ye Guichen sighed: ”So, you really don’t need to do anything. Just wait.”

”But...” Su Wu was about to say something, but Ye Guichen interrupted him: ”Su Wu, no need to say anything. Send my regards to Jiu’er.”

After saying that, Ye Guichen hung up the phone directly.

However, just as the call ended, several more calls came in.

There were ones from the Jinling King, from Dragon Tooth Duan Nanye.

Even Murong called, advising Ye Guichen to avoid the wrath of Shen Wanzhong for now.

Murong even suggested that Ye Guichen go to the Mu Family to hide, not believing anyone daring to kill in the Mu Family territory.

Ye Guichen declined each one.

Finally, after dismissing others, Wang Ying from the Jinling Prince Mansion appeared in front of Ye Guichen.

The people from the Jinling Prince Mansion initially wanted to help Ye Guichen after receiving Linglong’s call, but hesitated upon finding that the Ninth Grand Protector and members of the Tianjing Qin Family were involved.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to step in, but interfering wouldn’t be much help.

The Jinling King is powerful in Jinling, but neither in front of Lord Military God nor the Qin Family from Tianjing do they matter much.

And who would have thought, during that hesitation, the Jinling Prince Mansion received news that Ye Guichen had defeated Ninth Grand Protector Situ Yu completely.

The Wang Family couldn’t stay idle anymore.

Especially for Wang Xiao, as Ye Guichen was his lifesaver.

Ye Guichen had made significant contributions to the Jinling Prince Mansion.

Originally, Wang Xiao just wanted to persuade Ye Guichen to downplay the issues with the Qin Family and Ninth Grand Protector, but never got the chance.

Although he knew Ye Guichen was strong, could he really stand alone against the Military God and the entire Qin Family?

Wang Xiao initially thought Ye Guichen had big trouble, but then heard about the Shen Family planning to act against Ye Guichen.

”Crazy, this is absolutely crazy!” As Wang Xiao received the news, he immediately sent Wang Ying to find Ye Guichen.

Seeing Wang Ying, Ye Guichen was a bit surprised: ”Why are you here?”

Wang Ying was about the same height as Ye Guichen, and her long legs seemed they could entertain for years.

However, Wang Ying’s face was cold, seemingly keeping her feelings for Ye Guichen at just a friend level.

”My grandfather sent me to take you to a place.” Wang Ying glanced at Ye Guichen, feeling as if after just two months of not seeing each other, they had become quite distant.

”Oh, does Mr. Wang also want to advise me to find a place to hide?” Ye Guichen didn’t need to guess Wang Xiao’s intentions.

After all, within the vast Hua Country, few can truly contend against the four major families of Tianjing.

Wang Ying didn’t answer directly but said lightly, ”Ye Guichen, I know your skills are formidable, plus you have the Heavenly God Temple backing you. Perhaps you’re fearless, but this situation is entirely different. The four major families in Tianjing? You have conflicts with two major families. Even with three heads and six arms, it’s tough. But rest assured, if you’re really in danger, our Wang Family won’t sit by idly. Regardless of what others say, I’ll stand by you!”

Ye Guichen was touched by these words: ”Haha, Wang Ying, are you confessing to me?”

”Confessing what!” Wang Ying’s face blushed deeply: ”Murong likes you. I’m just a friend of Murong. What am I confessing? Hurry up, my grandfather is waiting for you!”

After speaking, Wang Ying turned and got into her Wrangler.

Ye Guichen shook his head helplessly and had to follow.

Soon, Wang Ying parked the car at a place called Qingfeng Tea House.

”This tea house is our family’s business, but not many know. My grandfather is waiting inside. Once you go in, someone will take you to find him. I’ll keep watch below!”

After saying that, Wang Ying turned her head to one side, avoiding looking at Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen smiled, ”You stay safe.”

Ye Guichen knew well that after Shen Family issued a bounty order, he might be targeted by assassins. Anyone in contact with him would be in danger.

Wang Xiao insisted on meeting him at this time, showing he’s not an ungrateful person.

Thus, Ye Guichen didn’t worry about any scheming from Wang Xiao, instead feeling touched internally.
