Unparalleled medical and martial arts skills, saving the CEO's fiancée at the start.

"Brother, my wife is inside, please let me in?" Ye Chen kept pleading with the security guard.

The snobbish security guard sized up Ye Chen's attire, his eyes filled with disdain: "Everyone here today is a big shot in Jiangcheng. What are you, a food delivery guy, doing here? Get out of here!"

"Hey bro, is this one okay, let's go in?"

The security guard took a closer look and saw that it was a black and gold access card, exclusive to the president, and there were no more than five of them in the entire Jiang Group.

The truly snobbish security guard immediately made way, his back almost bent at a ninety-degree angle: "I'm so sorry, please, please come in!"

Ye Chen wondered to himself, is it worth it to work so hard? He mustn't hurt his back, or his life would be over.

Ye Chen didn't want to argue. They were all just trying to make a living, and it wasn't easy for them. He could understand their feelings.

Ye Chen was immediately amazed by the hall's decor when he entered such a venue for the first time.

A long signing table was covered with a bright red velvet cloth, and two rows of chairs were neatly arranged.

Jiang Ruoxi was wearing a burgundy business suit today, with her long hair styled in a bun at the back of her head, making her look very capable and energetic.

Ye Chen did not go to find Jiang Ruoxi, but instead chatted extensively with the man who was with Jiang Ruoxi.

The leader was a refined man in his fifties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. Ye Chen guessed from the photo shown to Jiang Ruoxi that he should be Li Chengwen, the chairman of Wansheng Group.

It was that deadly golden-edged Cymbidium he gave me.

This old fox has the appearance of a good person, but he's full of evil intentions and is always thinking about taking advantage of Jiang Ruoxi and seizing her company.

Ye Chen was all too familiar with that look—the look of a hunter looking at its prey.

Jiang Ruoxi knew Li Chengwen's intentions, but she had to play along for the sake of the company's interests.

"President Jiang, Wansheng Group is showing our utmost sincerity in this new energy project cooperation. I have had the legal department review the contract repeatedly to ensure it is absolutely fair and impartial." Li Chengwen adjusted his glasses, his smile gentle and refined.

Jiang Ruoxi picked up her champagne glass, took a small sip, and politely replied, "Mr. Li, thank you for your trouble. The Jiang family also values ​​this cooperation very much."

"Come on, let's toast to our powerful alliance!" Li Chengwen raised his glass.

Just as they clinked glasses, Ye Chen noticed Li Chengwen's ring.

Li Chengwen twitched his left little finger slightly, and a transparent ice needle, thinner than a hair, popped out from under his fingernail and silently shot towards Jiang Ruoxi's wine glass.

Ice Soul Needle!

An extremely insidious hidden weapon technique in the ancient martial arts world: the ice needle melts instantly upon contact with alcohol, leaving no color or odor. The victim is completely unaware of the poisoning on the spot, but will suddenly suffer cardiac arrest three days later.

It employs the same insidious and vicious methods as the Corrupt Heart Powder!

"There's an assassin!"

Ye Chen suddenly shouted and darted out like a cheetah. Before anyone could react, he snatched the wine glass from Jiang Ruoxi's hand and smashed it on the ground!

Snapped!

Jiang Ruoxi's wine glass shattered, spilling wine all over the floor.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at Ye Chen.

Jiang Ruoxi looked at her wrist, which Ye Chen was gripping tightly, and felt both ashamed and angry: "Ye Chen! What's wrong with you now?"

A flicker of panic crossed Li Chengwen's eyes, and his face darkened: "Who are you? Security, throw this troublemaker out!"

Four burly security guards immediately rushed over and surrounded Ye Chen.

Ye Chen shielded Jiang Ruoxi behind him and pointed at Li Chengwen: "President Li, don't you know what you just flicked into President Jiang's wine glass?"

Li Chengwen remained unmoved: "Nonsense! I, Li Chengwen, have been in the business world for thirty years, and my conduct has always been upright and honest. How could I allow a mere brat like you to slander me!"

"Exactly, where did this lunatic come from?"

"Where are the security guards? Aren't they going to do anything?"

Jiang Ruoxi said in a low voice, "Ye Chen, stop messing around. Although Li Chengwen's character isn't great, I really need this cooperation..."

Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen squatted down, took out a silver needle from his pocket, and gently dipped it into the wine stains on the ground.

The tip of the silver needle turned black instantly!

"hiss……"

The silver needle is used to test for poison; if it turns black, it is poisonous. This is a principle that even a three-year-old child understands!

Li Chengwen's expression finally changed.

Jiang Ruoxi stared intently at the dark silver needle, her back instantly soaked with cold sweat.

She had just brought that glass of wine to her lips.

If Ye Chen hadn't smashed the wine glass, she might be a corpse now...

"Mr. Li, how do you explain this?" Jiang Ruoxi's voice was icy cold, and she exuded a suffocating aura.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Li Chengwen's forehead, but being a seasoned veteran, he quickly regained his composure: "President Jiang, this must be a setup! This wine was provided by the venue; how could I possibly poison it?"

"Yeah?"

"Mr. Jiang and I have been partners for many years, and it is impossible for me to cut off my own source of income."

"Should I examine the remnants of the Ice Soul Needle under your left pinky fingernail right here?"

Li Chengwen subconsciously hid his left hand behind his back. How could this kid possibly know about the Ice Soul Needle?

That's a closely guarded secret in the ancient martial arts world.

"Security! Take this madman down!" Li Chengwen completely lost his temper and shouted fiercely.

The four security guards hesitated for a moment, but still pounced on Ye Chen.

Ye Chen didn't even turn his head, and instead threw three punches and a kick.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Four muffled thuds erupted almost simultaneously, and the four security guards screamed as they were sent flying backward, crashing to the ground and groaning in pain, unable to get up.

"Oh my god!"

The venue erupted in chaos, with guests backing away amidst screams and shouts.

Seeing that things were not going well, Li Chengwen turned around and tried to run away.

"Trying to leave?"

Ye Chen took a step forward, his five fingers gripping Li Chengwen's shoulder like iron clamps, and squeezed hard.

Click!

The crisp sound of the shoulder blade cracking was clearly audible.

"Ah!" Li Chengwen let out a pig-like scream, his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.

Ye Chen pinned him to the ground, turned to Jiang Ruoxi, and after receiving Jiang Ruoxi's permission, Ye Chen unleashed a flurry of punches on Li Chengwen's face.

Ignoring Li Chengwen's pleas for mercy, Ye Chen decided to beat him to a pulp first.

"Li Chengwen, why did you want to harm me?"

Jiang Ruoxi was so angry that she kicked Li Chengwen a few times.

Li Chengwen was pinned to the ground, his face contorted in pain: "Heh heh heh! Jiang Ruoxi, you think you can get away with just arresting me? Let me tell you, I'm just a gofer! The person who really wants your life is someone you can't afford to mess with! The power behind him is something no one in the entire Jiangcheng can afford to offend!"

"What if I join in? Go back and tell that young master from the ancient martial arts family behind you that Jiang Ruoxi is my woman, Ye Chen's woman. If he dares to touch a hair on her head again, I'll wipe out his entire family." Ye Chen leaned down and whispered in his ear, his voice only audible to the two of them.

The voice was calm, yet it carried a chilling undertone.

Li Chengwen trembled all over, looked up and met Ye Chen's calm and unwavering eyes, and suddenly felt an unprecedented fear.

That look in his eyes was as if he were looking at a dead person.

Ye Chen wanted to use Li Chengwen to lure out the real mastermind, so he quickly had Li Chengwen leave the venue.

Ye Chen walked to Jiang Ruoxi's side: "My dear fiancée, now you know how important it is to bring me along, right?"

Jiang Ruoxi turned her head and looked at the boy who was two years younger than her.

"Ye Chen".

"Um?"

"Starting tomorrow, you'll be commuting to and from get off work with me."

Ye Chen grinned. This woman looked quite pretty when she blushed.
