Ever since Ye Guichen moved to the Medicinal Food Restaurant, he has rarely seen Chen Ziran.

Moreover, Chen Ziran is now busy with work, and it seems she doesn't have the time to deal with Ye Guichen.

Of course, except for the time when Mi Lan complained to Chen Ziran in Qinghe about Ye Guichen flirting with other women, and Chen Ziran called him. Since then, Ye Guichen hasn't contacted Chen Ziran either.

This "wife" made Chen Ziran's heart flutter: "Hmph, I thought you had forgotten me? I heard from Lanlan that you had already left Qinghe. What is this, trying to break off the engagement without even calling me?"

Her words were full of jealousy and discontent.

Ye Guichen was extremely embarrassed: "Um, I encountered some issues."

"Hmph, I don't want to hear excuses." Chen Ziran pretended to be angry: "Since you are back, it's perfect. I need to go to Qingzhou tomorrow; will you come with me?"

"Qingzhou?" Ye Guichen was taken aback.

He needed to go to Qingzhou for the Chinese Herbal Medicine Association as well.

What a coincidence.

"Alright, it would be my honor." Ye Guichen said with a smile: "So, may I ask what brings Madam to Qingzhou?"

"What else? Besides doing business, I won't be dating any other men." Chen Ziran's tone carried a trace of resentment: "Our company's clothes are being promoted, and there happens to be a fashion exhibition over there that invited me, so naturally, I cannot miss it."

"Alright, got it." Ye Guichen heard Chen Ziran's tone becoming increasingly off, and if they continued, she might be crying on the phone about how he ignored her. So, he quickly wrapped up the call after chatting for a bit more.

"Master Mai, let's go to Qingzhou together tomorrow and meet my Master Mai." Ye Guichen said, not waiting for Su Tong's agreement, and stood up: "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he walked out of Yunji Hall.

Although Su Tong didn't want to meet his Master Mai, after this event, he realized that if the matter wasn't resolved, they wouldn't be able to handle similar issues in the future along Herbal Medicine Street.

"Alright." Looking at Ye Guichen's figure, Su Tong muttered to himself.

At this moment, Linglong came over: "Grandpa Su, how did Senior Brother Ye manage to do it? Yuan Shao is a ruthless person with skilled fighters like Shui Liao under him. How did he submit so easily to Senior Brother Ye?"

Su Tong sighed and said with emotion: "Linglong, I knew from the start that this boy was extraordinary. Although I couldn't take him as my apprentice, at least our Shennong Sect has a successor. Haha, with this boy, I suddenly feel that our Shennong Sect can restore its former glory."

As he spoke, Su Tong's eyebrows relaxed, and he seemed extremely delighted.

Linglong, seeing Su Tong's expression, also began to ponder.

She naturally knew Su Tong's hopes.

Now, the Shennong Sect's three disciples are scattered, all busy with their own things, and none are thinking about reviving the Shennong Sect's former glory.

However, this thought has always been deep in Su Tong's heart.

He is humble and doesn't like to be in the limelight. His skills are not as strong as Li Fengxian, and he isn't as smooth in handling affairs as his Master Mai.

With just a burning passion, he couldn't accomplish much.

But now, things are completely different.

Ye Guichen has perfectly inherited Li Fengxian's skills, and his dealings are mature, making him the best candidate to be the future Sect Leader of the Shennong Sect.

His eyes flickering, a thought suddenly grew wildly in Su Tong's mind like weeds.

Yes, he must find a way to make this boy the Sect Leader of the Shennong Sect!

Haha, he must!

...

Early the next morning, as the sky was just beginning to lighten, Ye Guichen was awoken by a sharp ring from his phone.

"Hello, wife, it's so early; what time is it?" Ye Guichen answered to find it was Chen Ziran calling.

Hearing Ye Guichen's lazy voice, Chen Ziran immediately pouted: "It's already past six, and it will take several hours to drive to Qingzhou. We have to be there by noon; you didn't forget, did you?"

"Of course not." Ye Guichen sprang up in a jolt.

He quickly dressed, freshened up a bit, and gave a few instructions to the people at the Medicinal Food Restaurant before heading out.

It turned out Chen Ziran was already waiting outside with the car.

Today, Chen Ziran seemed to have dressed up especially for the occasion, wearing a loose knit sweater, cut-out pants, with light makeup, giving off a strong-woman aura mixed with a hint of bashfulness.

Bai Qinghe sat in the driver's seat, took a glance at Ye Guichen without saying a word, but her eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.

Ye Guichen knew he was in the wrong.

Even though he was nominally Chen Ziran's fiancé, they rarely saw each other, and it was Chen Ziran who had to take the initiative to reach out.

"Hmm, but it's strange. How come this guy looks better than the last time I saw him?" Bai Qinghe, although giving Ye Guichen a once-over, couldn't help but sneak another look, feeling strangely that her own skin wasn't as good as his.

"What have you been up to? Hmph, you didn't even contact me." Chen Ziran said as she opened the car door and clung to Ye Guichen's arm.

Like a little bird relying on its master.

For some reason, when with Chen Ziran, Ye Guichen felt very relaxed. He raised his hand to pat her head: "Men have to do great things."

"Hmph, I think you've been getting plastic surgery." Bai Qinghe suddenly said from the driver's seat, nearly causing Ye Guichen to stumble: "Sister Bai, why would a man get plastic surgery?"

"Hmph!" Bai Qinghe, now a close friend of Chen Ziran, saw her pining for Ye Guichen while he was off enjoying himself. If she could beat him, she would have dragged him back to Chen Ziran's bed long ago.

Especially noticing Ye Guichen looked better than before, Bai Qinghe's heart filled with an inexplicable jealousy.

Prompted by Bai Qinghe's remark, Chen Ziran scrutinized Ye Guichen, her eyes suddenly wide with surprise as she touched his face: "My God, your skin is as smooth as a baby's! Is the food at the Medicinal Food Restaurant that good?"

"Cough, wife, we haven't seen each other for a while. Can we not focus on these details?" Ye Guichen didn't know how to explain, so he embraced her by the waist, shouting toward Bai Qinghe: "Sister Bai, just drive; pretend you don't see us in the back!"

"Hey, what are you talking about? What could I possibly do with you?" Hearing Ye Guichen's teasing, Chen Ziran blushed furiously, wanting to hide in his arms, or rather, somewhere even more hidden.

Bai Qinghe rolled her eyes: "Whatever, it's not like I haven't seen it before."

One sentence made Ye Guichen completely helpless.

"Um, first to the Herbal Medicine Street, to pick up someone..." Ye Guichen knew that despite Bai Qinghe's youthful appearance, she was quite experienced, and he was not her match, so he quickly changed the subject.
