"Come, come, sit down, sit down." Su Tong hurriedly walked to the side of Ye Guichen, pulled him to sit down, and seeing his colleagues' puzzled expressions, he rolled his eyes at them and introduced, "This is the big boss behind the Medicinal Food Restaurant."
"Medicinal Food Restaurant?" Upon hearing this, the expressions on those colleagues' faces immediately turned respectful.
Obviously, the place has been unable to open for the past few days, but the Medicinal Food Restaurant continued to loan from them, solving many of their herbal medicine issues, making them extremely grateful.
Moreover, many colleagues who had not personally seen Ye Guichen practicing medicine had heard about it and knew about Ye Guichen's exceptional medical skills.
"Mr. Ye, I really apologize, I, I didn't know it was you!" The colleague who was cautious earlier hurried to apologize.
Ye Guichen waved his hand, "Understandable, understandable."
Then, he turned to Su Tong, "Old man, what exactly is the situation here? I heard from Zhao Erdan, what exactly is going on with that Yuan Shao?"
Su Tong sighed, "Well, we actually aren't very clear on the details. About four or five days ago, that person named Yuan Shao suddenly showed up with three other people, holding property certificates, claiming to take back all the houses here and asking us to move out within a week."
"Of course, we wouldn't agree, so we sought the landlord who had rented out the houses previously, but the landlord said he had transferred all the properties here to Yuan Shao and doesn't care about here anymore."
"Many people were dissatisfied and went to reason with Yuan Shao, but as you can imagine, they were directly beaten and ended up bedridden."
"Well, you certainly saw it earlier, anyone who dares to resist gets beaten up. Yuan Shao indeed legally owns the place and has a justified reason for evicting us, but many people have rented here for a long time, and the rent itself costs over a million. It's not easy for anyone to agree to move out before the contract ends."
"That's not all, those people are extremely arrogant, not letting us sell or transport the stored herbal medicines, blatantly bullying us. These days, it was only your Medicinal Food Restaurant that secretly came at night to buy our medicines, otherwise, with this rainy weather, they would have soon become moldy and spoiled."
At this point, Su Tong looked up at Su Jiu'er, "Miss Jiu'er, thank you very much."
"Old man, please don't say that. Even if you weren't our boss's master, I'm still doing this for the benefit of our Medicinal Food Restaurant," Su Jiu'er blushed slightly, seeming a bit embarrassed.
Ye Guichen glanced at Su Jiu'er and smiled meaningfully.
In this situation, it was likely that only a master like Su Jiu'er could have managed to sneak in unnoticed; ordinary people probably wouldn't be able to get in at all.
As they were chatting, the curtain connecting to the backyard opened, and Linglong came out on a wheelchair.
Seeing Ye Guichen, Linglong was momentarily stunned, "Brother Ye, you're here?"
Linglong had a baby face, and despite her legs being abnormal, her appearance and figure completely matched the standard of a beauty.
But over the years, probably due to her legs, she seldom smiled.
However, seeing Ye Guichen made Linglong smile lightly, momentarily making her look like blooming flowers.
Seeing Linglong, Ye Guichen felt a strange sense of guilt in his heart.
He had promised her to treat her legs, but he had been so busy he almost forgot.
"Linglong, how are you?" Ye Guichen greeted politely, but suddenly noticed a bandage wrapped around Linglong's arm and was taken aback, "Mr. Su, what happened to Linglong's arm?"
Su Tong awkwardly smiled, "Well, it was yesterday. Those people were wandering around here and saw Linglong. They said a few flirtatious words, and Linglong, with her fiery character, scolded them back. The men got angry and overturned her wheelchair. Fortunately, only her arm got injured, not other parts."
"Exactly, Mr. Ye. Those people are worse than animals, especially that Yuan Shao, what kind of person is he!" A colleague was indignant.
Obviously, they were all extremely angry at Yuan Shao's men, but they couldn't do anything.
At this moment, a panicked shout came from outside, "Brother Shui is here!"
"Brother Shui?" Ye Guichen seemed puzzled.
Su Jiu'er instantly tensed up, "Brother Shui is Shui Liao, a top fighter under Yuan Shao."
While speaking, Su Jiu'er had already turned to look at the door.
Indeed, before long, a burly man appeared at the entrance of Yunji Hall.
Behind him followed the tall man with the broken arm from earlier, sweating profusely in pain, his arm still unbandaged. Seeing Ye Guichen, his eyes seemed to blaze with fury, pointing at Ye Guichen with his remaining arm, "Brother Shui, it's that kid, who said he's taking over here!"
Shui Liao, nearly two meters tall, walked in a way that made the ground seem to shake.
He wore a sleeveless vest, revealing arms that were almost as thick as Ye Guichen's legs.
Just one look at Shui Liao gave a sense of danger.
No wonder Su Jiu'er couldn't beat him, though she was nearly a second-rate fighter, her punches probably felt like mere scratches on Shui Liao.
All the colleagues shrunk back in fear.
Su Jiu'er stood hard-headedly in front of Ye Guichen, but a thin layer of sweat had appeared on her white forehead.
She tightly gripped the Nine-section Whip in one hand and a tightly clenched fist in the other, her body tensed, ready to strike at any time.
Iron Hand stood calmly beside Ye Guichen, but his hands were also ready to act at any moment.
Ye Guichen raised his head, looking at Shui Liao who was a head taller than him, and asked, "So, you are under Yuan Shao?"
"How dare you speak the General's name directly, courting death!" Shui Liao's voice, booming like a bell, made everyone's heads in Yunji Hall buzz.
Ye Guichen was astonished, "General?"
Was this a nickname Yuan Shao gave himself or was he truly a general?
But now, Shui Liao evidently didn't intend to give Ye Guichen time to think.
His giant hand reached directly towards Ye Guichen's head, seemingly wanting to crush it.
Ye Guichen raised his eyebrows, naturally sensing Shui Liao's threat.
"You want to touch Mr. Ye, you have to go through me first!" But before Ye Guichen could act, Iron Hand had already made his move.
In front of Shui Liao, Iron Hand seemed like a child.
But Iron Hand's speed and skill were superior to Su Jiu'er's, and he swiftly lunged at Shui Liao. His iron hands were like blades, immediately targeting Shui Liao's hand reaching for Ye Guichen.
Slap!
Unexpectedly, when Iron Hand's weapon-like hands touched Shui Liao's big hand, they only caused a small cut, failing to inflict serious harm.
"How... How is this possible?"
Iron Hand was shocked.
His hands, made of specially crafted steel, were sharper than weapons. Even the strongest fighters' flesh couldn't withstand direct hits from his iron hands.
At that instant, Shui Liao's hand changed direction, suddenly clutching one of Iron Hand's hands and squeezing tightly.
Squeak!
The sound of steel being crushed.
Iron Hand tried to pull his hand back, but it was too late.
