My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1142: Shameless

"Chen Tianhe, what gives you the right to interfere with my marriage!" Initially teetering on the edge of eruption, Chen Ziran could no longer suppress her excitement upon hearing this, and roared directly: "Besides, I've never had the slightest connection to your Chen Family. Although my surname is also Chen, did you consider us when you abandoned our branch back then?"

"Over the years, our branch has achieved what it has today through our own efforts, and now you think you can just stand up and say 'return,' and that's it?"

"You all are truly shameless!"

"To be honest, everything our branch possesses was given by Ye Guichen. In this lifetime, I will marry no one but him! If he dies, I won't live either!"

After venting, Chen Ziran slumped powerlessly in her chair: "You captured me, is it to deal with Ye Guichen?"

Chen Tianhe laughed heartily but didn't speak.

The middle-aged man from earlier opened his mouth once again, "It seems you haven't realized your current situation at all! The Clan Leader is not negotiating with you, nor is he listening to your opinion, he's simply telling you. Fine, if you don't want to be the leader of your branch, we can choose someone else, it doesn't matter. However, Ye Guichen offended someone he shouldn't have, and there's only a dead end for him."

"Chen Ziran, you're too naive. If you think getting married to Ye Guichen will pull us Chen Family into your mess, then you're wrong! Haha, if possible, even sacrificing your entire branch wouldn't matter."

"Of course, the Clan Leader is actually giving your branch a chance to prove yourselves. As long as you're willing to submit, handing over eighty percent of your company's assets and giving half of your annual profits to us Chen Family, we will allow your branch to continue existing."

Chen Ziran raised her head, staring at this so-called Uncle Chen.

Of course, by relation, Chen Ziran indeed has to call him Uncle Chen.

But never in a million years did she expect there to be such conspiracy and deceit mixed within this family relationship.

"Haha, so this is your intention, good, then I can tell you clearly, you may have designs on me, but if you think you can really do anything to Ye Guichen, you're gravely mistaken." Chen Ziran laughed coldly.

Since meeting Ye Guichen, though Chen Ziran initially didn't pay much attention to him,

As time went on, she discovered that there was nothing in this world Ye Guichen couldn't do.

Especially as the Dragon Tomb Peak project entered a stable phase, Chen Ziran's trust in Ye Guichen reached an unprecedented height.

She originally thought that with the Dragon Tomb Peak project, the Chen Group could reach an even higher level.

Yet unexpectedly, at this time a Chen Family came forward.

It's truly laughable. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Haha, it seems you have a lot of faith in your fiancé." Uncle Chen chuckled wryly, mocking, "You're probably unaware of who he's offended this time, right? A Martial Arts Expert, the leader of Japan's Iaido, Jitian, do you know? Oh, that's right, you wouldn't know, your whole branch are ordinary people. Haha, that kid does have some skills, but he's too conspicuous. If he could lie low, in another ten or eight years, he might indeed become an exceptional figure worth admiring."

"At that time, perhaps the value of your branch in the eyes of our Chen Family would be completely different."

"But for now, you are merely a money-making machine in our eyes, and since the Clan Leader has taken a liking to you, that's your blessing. Do you think you have a choice?"

"Chen Ziran, wake up! Today, Uncle will be honest with you, if you don't sever ties with Ye Guichen, your relatives will be implicated. Hmph, you think Ye Guichen is formidable, right? But in the face of some colossal forces, he's nothing more than an ant."

At this point, Uncle Chen glanced at Chen Tianhe.

Chen Tianhe nodded lightly, seemingly to add more pressure on Chen Ziran.

Uncle Chen gestured towards the outside.

Soon, two people carried in an iron cage.

Inside the iron cage wasn't an animal, but an elderly man.

The elderly man seemed to be in his sixties or seventies, although somewhat aged, his body appeared fairly robust.

Except now, he was covered in scars, curled up in the iron cage, shivering.

Uncle Chen stood up, walked to the edge of the iron cage, patted it, and said to Chen Ziran: "Do you know who this person is?"

Chen Ziran furrowed her brows, her eyes filled with confusion.

Uncle Chen continued: "Haha, he's Ye Guichen's master, the one who raised Ye Guichen since childhood, the mad doctor, Li Fengxian."

"What?" Chen Ziran's face changed dramatically, as she rushed to the edge of the iron cage, grabbing onto it and shouted: "Are you, are you his master?"

Li Fengxian raised his head.

Though a bit disheveled, his eyes shone brightly, without a trace of dejection.

When he saw Chen Ziran, Li Fengxian grinned and said: "Are you that girl, Chen Ziran?"

"Yes, it's me." Chen Ziran could no longer hold back her tears, which rolled down uncontrollably.

The engagement between herself and Ye Guichen was entirely because of the old man in front of her.

If not for Li Fengxian, Chen Ziran knew she might have missed Ye Guichen long ago.

In her eyes, Li Fengxian is akin to a family member. Although they've never met, in her heart, he's placed on a very high pedestal.

"Haha, girl, there's no need to cry. A person's life should go through some things. Since that kid went down the mountain, I haven't seen him again. But it's all good, no one bothers me when I'm flirting with girls. Hehe..."

Li Fengxian joked, but it made Chen Ziran feel even worse.

"Girl, that kid isn't an ordinary person. I believe he will come to save us. No one can stop him, I always believed."

Li Fengxian murmured.

Chen Ziran nodded heavily, then looked up at Chen Tianhe on the high seat: "Why did you capture Mr. Li too? What do you want to do? Let him go, I'll agree to whatever I can do..."

"Haha, Chen Ziran, you're so naive!" Uncle Chen laughed loudly: "Do you think you have any bargaining chips in front of our Clan Leader? You overestimate yourself, not only you, even this old thing, is just bait to lure that kid here. However, the Clan Leader also said, considering the Chen Family blood running through your veins, you were not harmed, so you should be grateful, recognize the Clan Leader's benevolence towards you, and repay him properly in the future."
