My Silly, Sweet Wife

With the sound of the bottle shattering, a puff of white smoke emerged from it.

The moment the smoke was released, it quickly spread throughout the room.

Gongsun Fengying was unprepared, and after inhaling just a little, she felt weak all over and collapsed to the ground.

Ye Guichen, however, was immune to these substances. He sniffed lightly, realizing it was a potent narcotic; they must have done this kind of thing more than once.

Initially, Ye Guichen intended to apprehend the thug first, but upon reconsideration, he also sat down, pretending to have been knocked out.

"Haha, just a whiff of this narcotic can bring down an elephant with ease, yet you dared to come here looking for trouble!"

Seeing both Ye Guichen and Gongsun Fengying downed by the narcotic, the thug laughed hysterically.

The thug seemed to have already taken the antidote and walked over to Ye Guichen and Gongsun Fengying, sneering with greed at Gongsun Fengying: "Beautiful, you can fight well, but so what? In the end, aren't you still at my mercy? Haha, trying to be a hero, huh? Don't worry, once the boss arrives, I'll take good care of you."

Seeing Gongsun Fengying glaring at him with venomous eyes, the thug lifted her chin with his hand and then took out his phone to make a call: "Boss, I've captured two people, come over quickly."

"Yes, yes, Brother Hao is injured, and there's another person whose skills are unclear, so don't make a move for now."

"Alright, come through the back door."

After hanging up, the thug squatted in front of Gongsun Fengying, swallowing hard and said, "Tsk tsk, so beautiful and such a good fighter. If it weren't for this strong narcotic, I probably would never have a chance to savor someone like you. Don't worry, once the boss arrives, I'll serve you well."

"You, you despicable rat!" Gongsun Fengying had never expected to fall into a thug's trap, now feeling boneless, unable to even move.

She was utterly terrified, thinking of their vile methods and the prospect of being violated brought tears to her eyes.

"Ye, aren't you supposed to be formidable? How come you're down too?"

Gongsun Fengying cursed in a hoarse voice.

"Missy, no need to shout, I'll take you to a nice place first. After our transaction tonight, I'll make sure you feel really good."

The thug said, lifting Gongsun Fengying and heading toward a spot against the wall in the room.

There was a bookshelf there, which had a vase on it.

The thug twisted the vase twice, and the bookshelf parted to reveal an underground passage.

The thug didn't pay attention to Ye Guichen and carried Gongsun Fengying into the underground passage.

In his mind, Ye Guichen was already sedated and could be killed and disposed of later, while Gongsun Fengying should be kept for enjoyment.

"Let go of me!"

"Ye Guichen, why aren't you saying anything!"

"Aaaah, I'll never let you off even in death!"

Gongsun Fengying's struggle was all that remained.

She never imagined that a genius like herself would fall into such a wretched man's hands.

However, just as the thug carried Gongsun Fengying into the basement, Ye Guichen quietly followed behind them.

The basement was quite deep. After descending the stairs for a while, they arrived at a spacious room.

Shockingly, there were several iron cages inside, with some dirty girls locked inside them.

The girls appeared to be around fourteen or fifteen years old, the oldest probably no more than eighteen. Seeing someone come down, they looked up in terror at the thug.

Seeing the thug carrying another girl, despair grew on their faces.

The thug ignored the other girls, opened one of the cages, and was about to toss Gongsun Fengying inside when a cold voice suddenly sounded behind him: "So you're not just trafficking children, but young girls too."

The thug froze as if struck, quickly turning his head and saw Ye Guichen's smiling face behind him.

"You, how…"

"How come I'm not affected by your narcotic? Sorry, I'm immune to such low-grade stuff." Ye Guichen said, gently laying Gongsun Fengying aside without making a move: "Tell me, who was the boss you called just now?"

Gongsun Fengying felt like she had fallen from heaven to hell, then from hell back to heaven. It had only been a few minutes, but when she saw Ye Guichen appear, she couldn't hold back her tears.

"You, you were fine all along, why pretend to be dead!"

Gongsun Fengying's voice trembled.

Even during the last deadly battle, Gongsun Fengying had never felt so helpless.

With her skills incapacitated, nearly becoming prey, and possibly violated, yet feeling unable to even die, it was terrifying.

Ye Guichen shrugged: "Captain Gongsun, if I didn't pretend to be affected then, how would I quickly learn there's a boss behind them, or about this underground cellar imprisoning girls?"

Gongsun Fengying was momentarily speechless, unsure how to rebut.

Seeing things turn for the worse, the thug tried to escape while Ye Guichen was distracted, but was caught and thrown into a cage by Ye Guichen.

Then, he grabbed two iron bars at the edge of the cage, twisting them together to lock the door.

Those iron rods were as thick as thumbs, but in Ye Guichen's hands, they were like thin wires, manipulated with ease.

The thug was dumbfounded: "What, what do you intend to do?"

"Answer my question, then wait for the boss you mentioned to arrive." Ye Guichen wasn't in a hurry and began checking Gongsun Fengying's condition, using needles to expel the toxin.

Although the narcotic was potent, only a few minutes had passed. After a few needles, Gongsun Fengying spat out a mouthful of dark blood and slowly started to regain her strength.

The thug was shocked at Ye Guichen's astonishing methods, his jaw almost dropping.

This narcotic was their strongest, capable of bringing down an elephant with just a sniff. Due to its potency, it couldn't be easily expelled from the body; only after twenty hours would it naturally dissipate, allowing the person to recover.

But Ye Guichen was unaffected, and a few needles easily rid Gongsun Fengying of the narcotic's effects too.

Such techniques were unheard of for the thug.

"Why do you look so surprised?" Seeing the thug's ghostly expression, Ye Guichen said with a sly grin, "Ordinary people couldn't make that narcotic; I'm very curious about the expert behind you."

The thug swallowed hard: "Sir, your skills are indeed superior. But, but we are just middlemen. Do you want money? Let me go, and I'll give you money. There's plenty for everyone. If a million isn't enough, two million, three million, just name the price. With your skills, together we can definitely make a fortune."

Ye Guichen saw the thug wasn't getting the point and shook his head, throwing a silver needle at the thug.

The thug collapsed, not understanding what happened, suddenly burst into laughter uncontrollably.
