My Silly, Sweet Wife

Ye Guichen felt a chill in his heart when he heard Ma Xiaoling's words.

There had been no unexpected incidents at all with Ma Xiaoling protecting Chen Ziran all this time.

Even if some people in the business world had intentions toward Chen Ziran, Ma Xiaoling could easily handle it.

Why was it that as soon as they arrived in Jinling, they were attacked again?

"What's going on? Where are you now?" Ye Guichen struggled to suppress his inner anger and asked in a deep voice.

"We're at Zitan Hospital in Jinling." Ma Xiaoling quickly replied, "Mr. Chen is temporarily okay, but President Wang Tianxing is undergoing emergency treatment."

"Wait for me!"

Hearing that Chen Ziran was safe, Ye Guichen breathed a sigh of relief. Hanging up the phone, he drove straight to Zitan Hospital.

Arriving at the emergency room, Ye Guichen saw from afar Ma Xiaoling sitting on a bench in the corridor with Chen Ziran.

Seeing Ye Guichen, Chen Ziran's tears she had been holding back immediately welled up as she staggered towards him, throwing herself into his arms and sobbing uncontrollably.

Seeing that Chen Ziran was not in any life-threatening danger, just a few scrapes, Ye Guichen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He gently patted her back to comfort her, "It's okay, it's okay."

"Guichen, I thought I would never see you again." Chen Ziran cried for a long time before raising her head from Ye Guichen's broad chest.

Ye Guichen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Although they hadn't seen each other for a while, seeing Chen Ziran again gave Ye Guichen an inexplicable feeling of affection. He looked at her tenderly, "Are you alright?"

Chen Ziran, having calmed down a bit, shook her head, "I'm okay, but we don't know how President Wang is doing."

"What exactly happened?" Ye Guichen led Chen Ziran to sit on the bench and asked.

Ma Xiaoling stood aside. She had wanted to step forward to speak but seeing Ye Guichen talking with Chen Ziran, she vigilantly watched the surroundings, looking very much like a responsible bodyguard.

Before long, Chen Ziran recounted what had happened.

It turns out that, this afternoon, after Chen Ziran and Ma Xiaoling arrived in Jinling, Wang Tianxing personally brought people to pick them up, saying he would first take them to see Dragon Tomb Peak and then discuss the development details.

Although Chen Ziran didn't understand why Wang Tianxing was so enthusiastic, she had done her research on Azure Dragon Commerce and knew Wang Tianxing was the current chairman. Thinking of his large family and substantial business, she felt it was unlikely he was deceiving her, so she followed him.

But no one expected that everything seemed fine at first. After looking around Dragon Tomb Peak, Wang Tianxing not only offered significant benefits to Chen Ziran but also proposed that Chen Group start a real estate company in Jinling and take on the villa project at Dragon Tomb Peak.

Profits from the project were to be split evenly.

It was like a pie falling into Chen Ziran's lap. After confirming that Wang Tianxing was serious, she wanted to immediately share the good news with Ye Guichen.

Unexpectedly, on the way back to the city, the commercial vehicle they were in suddenly broke down. The front two tires exploded at the same time, and thankfully the driver reacted quickly and stopped the car in time.

However, several highly skilled fighters sprang up from behind, launching a frenzied assassination attempt without saying a word.

The accident happened not far from Dragon Tomb Peak, a remote area with few people. Even though Wang Tianxing had brought many bodyguards, the assassins were very fierce and quickly dealt with the bodyguards, then swiftly moved to assassinate Wang Tianxing and Chen Ziran.

Fortunately, Ma Xiaoling intervened in time, using the Corpse-chasing Clan's methods to protect Chen Ziran and prevent significant harm.

After seeing Ma Xiaoling's strange techniques, the attackers, realizing they would gain nothing more, withdrew quickly.

But before retreating, Wang Tianxing was still stabbed in the chest and fell unconscious. He was now in the emergency room being treated.

After hearing this, Ye Guichen's eyebrows furrowed.

"It seems the attackers came prepared?" Ye Guichen asked.

Chen Ziran nodded, "Yes, and one of them shouted for revenge as soon as he appeared. I saw his eyes; they were terrifyingly blood-red, especially when he saw President Wang. It was as if he wanted to swallow him whole."

Ye Guichen remained silent, thinking of how Wang Tianxing always kept a group of bodyguards around him, living cautiously, likely to guard against some enemy.

"Who could it be?" While Ye Guichen was pondering, the emergency room door opened.

A crowd from Azure Dragon Commerce immediately rushed over.

Most of them were unfamiliar faces to Ye Guichen, likely Wang Tianxing's recent promotions.

They swarmed around the doctor, bombarding him with questions.

The doctor informed them that while Wang Tianxing wasn't currently in life-threatening condition, the chest stab was dangerous but fortunately not deep enough to hit the heart—otherwise, it would have been fatal even for a deity.

Upon hearing Wang Tianxing was out of immediate danger, the people from Azure Dragon Commerce showed various expressions.

Ye Guichen noted all of this but remained silent.

He suddenly wondered if it was too risky to let Chen Ziran cooperate with Wang Tianxing.

The attack was clearly aimed at Wang Tianxing, and Chen Ziran just happened to be with him. If not for Ma Xiaoling, she might have been assassinated.

"Damn it, no matter who it is, anyone who dares to touch my woman is courting death!" Ye Guichen's face darkened. He comforted Chen Ziran a few more words, then told Ma Xiaoling to protect Chen Ziran and go to the martial arts school to recuperate.

Chen Ziran originally wanted to wait until Wang Tianxing woke up to visit, feeling it necessary to show proper manners since they would be working together.

"I'm here. I will handle everything and talk to President Wang," Ye Guichen resolutely said.

Seeing the determination in Ye Guichen's eyes, Chen Ziran had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving, Ye Guichen called Ma Xiaoling over and gave her some instructions.

Ma Xiaoling twitched her lips, "Don't worry. I accepted your Dragon and Phoenix Revitalizing Pill, so I will do my job well."

Ye Guichen chuckled and didn't stand on ceremony with Ma Xiaoling.

Unlike Bai Qinghe, Ma Xiaoling was the granddaughter of the Corpse-chasing Clan Leader and a figure akin to a Holy Daughter. Now, serving as Chen Ziran's bodyguard, Ye Guichen naturally felt grateful.

"When you get back, I'll find a way to get you more Dragon and Phoenix Revitalizing Pills," Ye Guichen grinned, "So, I'll leave Ranran in your hands."

"Alright, cut the crap," Ma Xiaoling rolled her eyes at Ye Guichen, "Chen is like a sister to me. No need for you to worry."

With that, she pulled Chen Ziran away.

When Chen Ziran and Ma Xiaoling left, Wang Tianxing had already been transferred to a VIP ward.

Wang Tianxing's security detail naturally increased, but many people recognized Ye Guichen and didn't stop him when he arrived.

Ye Guichen stayed by Wang Tianxing's side, waiting for him to wake up.

There were some questions he needed answers to; otherwise, he would not be able to sleep.

Wang Tianxing's death didn't matter, but if Chen Ziran got involved in his grudge, Ye Guichen would not tolerate it.

Especially since Wang Tianxing's bodyguards turned out to be useless, indicating the attackers were highly skilled.

What worried him most was that if the assailants targeted Ma Xiaoling and Chen Ziran, a future attack on Chen Ziran would be troublesome.

Therefore, Ye Guichen had to find out the details first. If necessary, he would take the initiative to eliminate the threat to avoid future trouble.

"Mr. Ye, w-what are you doing here?"

Wang Tianxing woke to see Ye Guichen sitting by his side and was immediately scared, struggling to sit up but unable to due to the lingering effects of anesthesia.

Ye Guichen pressed him down, "Lie down first. There are things I need to hear from you personally."

The ward was filled with over a dozen bodyguards, almost packed to the brim.

They were all high-paid experts Wang Tianxing had hired, not originally from Azure Dragon Commerce. Although they couldn't be said to be 100% loyal to him, they were at least 90% loyal.

The black-faced man who had been knocked out by Ye Guihua the previous night was among them.

The black-faced man's face still held a look of respectful fear; after all, he had been knocked out before he could react.

Once he woke up, he realized Ye Guichen had held back. Especially after seeing the cigarette ashes twisted into a ball, he knew Ye Guichen's skills were far beyond his own.

"Mr. Ye, I bear some responsibility for today. I was too careless," the black-faced man said politely.

His arm was bandaged, indicating he was also injured.

Ye Guichen glanced at him, "You all leave. I need to speak privately with your president."

The black-faced man looked at Wang Tianxing for confirmation.

Ye Guichen sneered, "What, you don't trust me here? If I wanted to harm your president, do you think you could stop me?"

The black-faced man gave an awkward smile, "Of course not, Mr. Ye. We'll wait outside. Call us if you need anything."

With that, he led the other bodyguards out of the room.

Once everyone else left, Ye Guichen stared at Wang Tianxing, "So, what happened? If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I won't hesitate to twist your head off. You should know, Chen Ziran is my fiancée. If she gets involved in your issues, I will kill you myself before that person who wants you dead does, to eliminate future trouble."
