The security chief was being lifted by Ye Guichen, his face already flushed red as he struggled to remove Ye Guichen’s hand from his neck, but Ye Guichen’s grip was like an iron clamp, unmoving.
Seeing that Ye Guichen was about to strangle the security chief to death, the other security guards’ faces turned pale: "Hey, let him go!"
"Aren’t you from Sunset Country? Let go, it’s a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!"
The security chief also nodded in agreent, indicating he agreed with his partners.
Su Tong, afraid of causing death, quickly tugged at Ye Guichen: "Alright, alright, let him down first."
Ye Guichen threw the man to the ground, "What’s going on? If any of you dare to speak nonsense again, I’ll kill him!"
The weak fear the strong, the strong fear the ruthless, the ruthless fear those who fear nothing.
Ye Guichen’s gaze really looked like he wanted to kill soone.
The security chief took a few deep breaths and struggled to lift his head: "You’re not from Sunset Country?"
"What Sunset Country!" Su Tong said discontentedly, "I am the senior brother of Mai Gu, the second in the Shennong Sect. Hmph, I didn’t expect that old Mai Gu to have such gall now, even daring to stop his second senior brother!"
"Senior brother of President Mai?" The security guards exchanged glances.
They only knew that President Mai had extraordinary dical skills but had never heard of a senior brother.
However, thinking that if this old man was really President Mai’s senior brother, his dical skills must be even better than President Mai’s.
"Old sir, I’m really sorry!" The security chief struggled to get up, quickly saying, "We thought you were troublemakers from Sunset Country, our apologies. But President Mai isn’t here now, he’s at ho recovering."
The security chief briefly explained what had happened.
Su Tong and Ye Guichen exchanged glances, both montarily stunned.
"Troublemakers from Sunset Country?"
According to the security chief, Mai Gu had participated in a national dical forum so ti ago, where representatives from Sunset Country challenged, claiming that the best dical skills in the world were from Sunset Country, and even asserted that Huaxia’s traditional dicine was introduced from Sunset Country.
Angrily, Mai Gu argued with the Sunset Country representative on the spot, leading to a competition.
It turned out the opponent seed well-prepared, not only highly skilled but actually defeated Mai Gu.
The people from Sunset Country were extrely proud, forcing Mai Gu to admit that traditional Chinese dicine originated from Sunset Country and that Huaxia’s dical skills were inferior to those of Sunset Country.
Mai Gu refused to yield, leaving in a huff.
But the people from Sunset Country wouldn’t let go, constantly harassing Mai Gu, forcing him to admit Huaxia’s dical skills were inferior.
In the end, Mai Gu had no choice but to claim illness and shut his doors.
Whether he was really sick, no one knew.
"That old fool Mai is so cowardly! He can’t even deal with those little bastards!" Su Tong, upon hearing this, clenched his fists in anger, his beard trembling: "Ye, let’s find that old fool!"
Saying this, he dragged Ye Guichen into the car.
Ye Guichen asked curiously, "Master Uncle, do you know where Master Mai’s house is?"
"Hmph, that old fool sure knows how to enjoy life. He often sends ssages to Linglong, half a year ago he even told Linglong he bought a large mansion in the suburbs. If I’m correct, he’s definitely there." As he spoke, Su Tong gave Ye Guichen the address.
From Su Tong’s tone, it seed he and Mai Gu both liked Linglong a lot, but Su Tong believed Mai Gu was too power-hungry and worried he would lead Linglong astray, so he always kept Linglong by his side, not allowing her to et Mai Gu.
Nonetheless, Ye Guichen could hear that Su Tong still acknowledged his junior brother, just disapproved of his actions.
Ye Guichen set the navigation and headed straight for the suburban mansion.
It took half an hour to get out of the city, followed by over an hour of driving along rural roads, and they finally ca upon a scenic area that seed like a paradise.
A sea of yellow flowers filled the view, along with various herbal fragrances.
Many farrs were picking herbs, chatting and laughing, enjoying themselves.
This was clearly a herbal farm, with fresh air and scenery that was refreshing and delightful.
However, the area was fenced with iron gates, and when Ye Guichen and Su Tong arrived, the main gate was tightly closed.
Ye Guichen had to get out of the car and knock on the door.
Soon, a slit appeared in the gate, and soone peered out: "Who are you looking for?"
To avoid another misunderstanding, Ye Guichen quickly identified himself: "I am looking for Master Mai."
"Master Mai?" The gatekeeper, a man in his fifties, looked puzzled: "Who is Master Mai?"
"Mai Gu, I am his junior. My master is Li Fengxian. Please tell Master Mai, he should know." Ye Guichen quickly explained.
"Hmph, why so much nonsense!" Su Tong grumbled from the car.
The gatekeeper, noticing Su Tong, quickly nodded, "Please wait a mont."
He closed the gate and made a phone call.
After a while, he opened the gate again: "The master will personally co to greet you. Please wait here for a mont."
As he spoke, he looked at Ye Guichen with increasing curiosity.
Mai Gu was the president of the Jiangnan Province Chinese dicine Association, the dean of the Jiangnan Province First Hospital, and a top-notch divine doctor nationally. He had connections ranging from Yanjing dignitaries to various social circles. Normally, anyone wanting to see him had to make an appointnt in advance.
But this young man, calling Mai Gu "Master Uncle," received such special treatnt?
Is he joking?
Moreover, Mai Gu, troubled by the dical community from Sunset Country, had secluded himself here to avoid harassnt.
Now he was coming out to et soone personally?
As he harbored doubts, it wasn’t long before a small electric car arrived.
Out stepped an elderly man in traditional attire, with silver-white hair yet full of energy.
Leaning on a walking stick, he eagerly asked the gatekeeper: "Mr. Wu, where is my junior? Did my senior brother co too?"
Mai Gu looked excited, showing no signs of being ill, and quickly walked out the gate, imdiately seeing the tall and handso Ye Guichen.
However, he only glanced at Ye Guichen before quickly looking away, as if searching for soone.
He soon noticed Su Tong sitting in the car and frowned: "Senior brother didn’t co?"
Ye Guichen quickly stepped forward, bowing respectfully: "Are you Master Mai?"
"Are you my senior brother’s disciple?" Mai Gu’s excitent disappeared, and he looked Ye Guichen over, no longer as enthusiastic: "Didn’t your master co?"
"Oh, I ca with Master Su Tong to see Master Mai about sothing." Ye Guichen easily understood Mai Gu’s change in deanor, realizing Mai Gu hoped Li Fengxian had co to help him.
But when it turned out to be just a junior and soone he didn’t get along with, Su Tong, there was little reason for him to be happy.
