My Silly, Sweet Wife

On the other end of the phone, Duan Nanye took a puff of his cigarette and said meaningfully, ”Brother Wang, you can just hand this bottle over to Brother Ye. Heh heh, in this world, there probably isn’t anyone born yet who can use such sorcery to bring Brother Ye down.”

Duan Nanye had long heard that Ye Guichen was unparalleled in medical skills and had once subdued Bai Qinghe, one of the seven secretaries of the Azure Dragon Commerce, and was also a top-notch expert in the art of poison.

However, Ye Guichen simply disdained using poison.

So, hearing that this matter involved Ye Guichen, Duan Nanye instead felt relieved.

Wang Chaoyang still found it a bit strange: ”Mr. Ye’s medical skills are indeed strong, but if I give it to him directly, won’t something happen?”

”Brother Wang, don’t worry, if anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.”

With that, he hung up the phone without saying more.

It was just past seven o’clock, and Wang Chaoyang couldn’t wait any longer. He knocked on Wang Xiao’s door.

Wang Xiao seemed to have already anticipated Wang Chaoyang’s visit and answered.

Before Ye Guichen left, he had prepared some medicine for Wang Xiao. After a night of rest, Wang Xiao’s complexion had visibly improved.

Seeing Wang Chaoyang come in, Wang Xiao also got up from the bed, put on his training clothes, and walked over to Wang Chaoyang: ”Let’s go, we’ll go together to welcome Mr. Ye. I just called him, told him to come with an empty stomach in the morning, and after breakfast, you’ll go with him to the Azure Dragon Commerce to bring back Xiao Ying from Wang Xiong.”

Wang Chaoyang opened his mouth, initially wanting to tell Wang Xiao about the bottle, but seeing Wang Xiao in high spirits, he ultimately held back and wondered, ”Father, aren’t you going yourself?”

Wang Xiao had already walked out of the room and said as he walked, ”After what happened this time, you have seen it too. If I really die, there are too few people who can support the large Jinling Royal Mansion. Now that Luo Meng is dead, on the surface, there’s nothing wrong with Jinling Royal Mansion, but secretly, hearts are uneasy. Although you have a military rank, it is also a kind of constraint. I still hope you can come back and inherit Jinling Royal Mansion, in case one day I really die, you can...”

”Father, what are you saying? Doctor Ye said you’re fine.” Wang Chaoyang understood what Wang Xiao meant.

Logically, to ask Wang Xiong to return Wang Ying, it should indeed be Wang Xiao who goes.

But today, letting Wang Chaoyang go was to allow him to stand on his own.

Wang Xiao smiled bitterly: ”According to what Mr. Ye said, the mysterious energy in my body isn’t my own. If all this is done by that beast Wang Renfeng, do you think he would let me go? Haha, I’m afraid it won’t be long before he makes a move against me. But before that, I must hand over Jinling Royal Mansion to you completely. Rest assured and go with Mr. Ye, with him around, Wang Xiong shouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble.”

Wang Chaoyang found it a bit odd: ”Father, you trust Doctor Ye that much?”

”What do you think?” Wang Xiao didn’t say much more but revealed a profound and inscrutable smile.

Wang Chaoyang opened his mouth but ultimately swallowed back the fact that Ye Guichen was an Innate expert.

Besides himself, those who knew Ye Guichen was an Innate expert were Boss Mo and Duan Nanye.

But Boss Mo had already instructed that this matter must be kept confidential to become a dark horse at the big competition later.

Given the secrecy involved, Wang Chaoyang naturally knew how to measure.

However, seeing Wang Xiao and Wang Chaoyang personally walking to the door to welcome someone, the entire Prince Mansion was still taken aback.

A few minutes past seven, Ye Guichen approached from afar.

”Ha ha, Mr. Ye, come, come, come, breakfast is ready.” Wang Xiao laughed heartily, stepped forward to take Ye Guichen’s hand, and turned back towards the mansion.

Wang Chaoyang greeted Ye Guichen, but had to fall half a step behind.

This scene once again surprised the people of the mansion.

Although they knew that Ye Guichen had saved Wang Xiao’s life, it was still surprising to see Wang Xiao value him so much.

Breakfast was not complicated.

But Ye Guichen also understood Wang Xiao’s intention to build a good relationship.

As for Wang Xiao, Ye Guichen also felt good about him, and considering Mai Gu would stay in Jinling to open Shennong Hall in the future, Ye Guichen didn’t hold back.

The meal was enjoyed in a harmonious atmosphere, but Wang Chaoyang, who had something on his mind, remained somewhat uneasy.

From the beginning of the meal, Wang Xiao noticed something was off with Wang Chaoyang and frowned slightly: ”Chaoyang, do you have something to say?”

”Father, I, I don’t know if I should say it.” Wang Chaoyang was a bit apprehensive.

Wang Xiao said in a deep voice, ”Mr. Ye is my savior, what can’t be said?”

”It’s not that, this matter involves Wang Renfeng, I...” Wang Chaoyang hesitated for a moment but eventually placed the bottle on the table.

Both Wang Xiao and Ye Guichen were taken aback when they heard the name Wang Renfeng but tacitly remained silent, waiting for Wang Chaoyang’s next words.

Wang Chaoyang did not dare to hide anything.

Knowing that this matter was significant, he explained it in full detail.

Finally, he pointed at the bottle and said, ”Ruolan said this bottle was given to Doctor Ye by Wang Renfeng, but after asking Brother Duan, he said it is highly likely a talisman sealing a Gu worm. Brother Ye, that Wang Renfeng definitely has ill intentions; I think it would be best not to take the risk of opening it.”

Wang Xiao did not speak, instead squinting his eyes.

Ye Guichen played with the bottle in his hand twice, lightly smiling, seemingly unconcerned.

”Yes, this is indeed a bottle sealing a Gu worm. It seems that Wang Renfeng is warning me not to meddle too much.” As he spoke, Ye Guichen had already placed his right hand on the bottle cap: ”However, the one thing I am least afraid of is threats.”

Bang!

Accompanied by the slight sound of air being expelled, the bottle cap was opened.

The atmosphere immediately grew tense.

Wang Xiao did not move, merely observing Ye Guichen.

Wang Chaoyang quickly stood up.

He had heard of Gu worms but never encountered one.

Especially after hearing Duan Nanye say that this kind of Gu worm could be terrifying, he became apprehensive.

Wang Chaoyang still had doubts about Duan Nanye’s claim that Ye Guichen was not afraid of Gu worms.

As different thoughts crossed their minds, a small red sparrow, slightly larger than a thumb, unexpectedly flew out from inside.

The red sparrow flew at a high speed, seemingly stimulated by the air, and as it flew out, it landed on Ye Guichen’s arm. Its sharp little beak swiftly pecked down like a knife.

In the next second, the red sparrow had pecked a wound on Ye Guichen’s arm.

Wang Xiao cried out in alarm: ”Red Sparrow, Mr. Ye, be careful!”

However, by the time he spoke, it was already too late.

Wang Xiao had originally thought that Ye Guichen was very certain about the contents inside and wouldn’t get hurt, but now realized he might have overestimated him.

As he spoke, Wang Xiao had already stood up and quickly instructed: ”Chaoyang, close all doors and windows, make sure this thing doesn’t fly out.”

Wang Chaoyang was also startled.

Although he didn’t understand what was going on, he quickly stood up and, in almost the blink of an eye, had rushed out to close all the doors and windows.

When he returned, he saw Wang Xiao staring intently at Ye Guichen.
