My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 256: Imperial Medicinal Food Restaurant (2nd Update)


"Wow!"

This scene left many people dumbfounded.

Some folks even thought they were seeing things and rubbed their eyes.

Within mere seconds, Ye Guichen had already threaded several needles.

Especially the lead needle, which seemed to be manipulated by the thread, swiftly plunged into the injured person's abdomen.

"How... how is this possible?"

If they hadn't witnessed it themselves, everyone would have thought Ye Guichen was performing magic.

Normally, the thread follows the needle, but Ye Guichen handled it in a way that the needle followed the thread — a technique even more badass than the one in the movies.

In just over three minutes, the injured person's abdomen was threaded with several needles, interwoven with complex white threads.

Ye Guichen wiped his sweat and exhaled deeply: "Alright, it's safe to send him to the hospital now. But when you arrive, tell the surgeon to be extra careful during the procedure."

Having said that, Ye Guichen stood up.

Chen Ziran looked at the injured person in shock, noticing that his breathing had indeed stabilized, and the bleeding had stopped.

Zhao Erdan was stunned, then overjoyed: "Quick, quick, send him to the hospital."

After the injured person was rushed to the hospital, everyone present finally snapped out of their shock.

Although there was still confusion in their eyes, they now looked at Ye Guichen differently.

Even if unsure whether the injured person would survive, Ye Guichen's technique of threading the needle had left a lasting impression.

"Little brother, do you know medicine?"

"Can you treat illnesses? What was that just now?"

"Yeah, how did the needle follow the thread?"

Many were curious.

But Ye Guichen didn't want to explain much. He simply smiled, glanced at Zhao Erdan, and quickly entered the Medicinal Food Restaurant under renovation.

After the incident, the renovation had to be paused.

Inside, seeing no one around, Ye Guichen spoke in a low voice: "Erdan, didn't you notice something off?"

Zhao Erdan was still recovering from the earlier panic, clueless: "What do you mean 'off'?"

"The scaffolding was tampered with."

"Huh?" Zhao Erdan was shocked: "What do you mean?"

Earlier, Zhao Erdan was solely focused on the injured person's condition and didn't pay attention to other details.

But Ye Guichen noticed that several wires binding the scaffold were cleanly severed, evidently cut deliberately.

So, Ye Guichen felt someone had indeed tampered with it.

Zhao Erdan's face turned serious: "Boss, do you mean someone is targeting us?"

The Medicinal Food Restaurant wasn't even open yet but was already set to be a hit, especially its Seven-Openings Linglong noodles which many envied.

At such moments, it's hard to guarantee there aren't ill-intentioned individuals secretly messing around.

But without nearby surveillance, it's tough to determine if it was deliberate.

Ye Guichen shook his head: "It's unclear now, but we definitely need to be more careful in the future."

With Zhao Wuji put in his place and Huang Mao staying in line, there weren't any apparent enemies left on this street, and Ye Guichen couldn't think of anyone else who might target him.

Just then, yelling was heard outside.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

Immediately, Huang Mao, accompanied by four or five small thugs, walked in.

Seeing Ye Guichen, Huang Mao's face instantly broke into a smile: "Bro, you're here?"

Zhao Erdan had seen Huang Mao before and knew he was a minor thug in the area, not worth his attention.

Despite Zhao Erdan being a retired soldier with leg issues, he could still handle these small-time gangsters.

Seeing Huang Mao being so polite, Zhao Erdan simply sneered and stayed silent.

Ye Guichen waved at Huang Mao: "Huang Mao, good timing, I have a task for you."

Now aware of Ye Guichen's prowess, with Zhao Wuji bowing low to him, Huang Mao was cautious.

Within days, Lin Gang had his legs broken, and now Zhao Wuji seemed crippled.

Although Huang Mao didn't know who did it, he could guess.

It was surely related to the man in front of him, Ye Guichen.

Thus, he feared and respected Ye Guichen, hoping to curry favor, believing if he aligned with Ye Guihua, he'd fear no one in the future.

Upon hearing Ye Guichen had instructions for him, Huang Mao shivered with excitement, thumping his chest: "Bro, whatever you need, I run this street."

Ye Guichen ignored his flattery, pointing to the door: "From today, have people guard here 24/7, allowing only workers inside. If any more accidents happen, I'll hold you accountable."

"Huh?" Huang Mao was stunned.

Just hearing about the accident, Huang Mao rushed over.

Leaving it as an accident, since Ye Guichen instructed, Huang Mao wouldn't dare refuse: "Got it, bro, leave it to me."

Ye Guichen nodded, saying no more. After a few words with Zhao Erdan, he and Chen Ziran left.

"Guichen, I didn't expect your medical skills to be so advanced." Chen Ziran felt an even stronger attraction after witnessing it.

Ye Guichen didn't reveal the Medicinal Food Restaurant was his but said it was run by Zhao Erdan and Yu Jieyuan.

Chen Ziran didn't press further.

Ye Guichen smiled: "I told you my medical skills are extraordinary, you didn't believe me."

"Hmph, show-off!" Chen Ziran playfully punched Ye Guichen: "What's next?"

"Rare outing, let's stroll."

The duo wandered around the snack street for a while. Ye Guichen even noticed across from Jixiang Noodle House another restaurant under renovation, already displaying a sign, claiming it was opened by the chef from Huanghelou.

The restaurant's name was bold: Imperial Medical Restaurant.

Sensing nothing urgent, Ye Guichen grabbed Chen Ziran's slim waist: "Let's check it out."

As they reached Imperial Medical Restaurant's entrance, someone stopped them.

"You two, we're still renovating. We'll have a grand opening soon, you're welcome then!"

Handing a flyer to Ye Guichen, promoting: "Take a look, our medicinal cuisine is what the Emperor used to eat. Our chef's ancestors were Imperial Kitchen chefs, make sure to visit during the opening."

Ye Guichen glanced at the menu.

Imperial Jade Wine.

Imperial Eight Treasures.

Imperial Sea Rooster.

Each name sounded fancy.

Yet, he found it increasingly odd.

It seemed this Imperial Medical Restaurant was established specifically to compete with his Medicinal Food Restaurant.

"Alright, I'll surely visit," Ye Guichen smiled, leaving with Chen Ziran.

Leaving the snack street, Ye Guichen remembered his herbs were ready at Yunji Hall after three days, so he asked Bai Qinghe to take Chen Ziran away and caught a cab to Yunji Hall.

However, upon reaching Yunji Hall, he heard raucous commotion inside.
