Traductor: 549690339

As Xiao Yifeng left the Ye Corporation side by side with Ye Yaxin, news that the Ye Corporation's aloof and noble CEO had an unengaged fiancé spread throughout the entire corporation in an instant.

Moreover, this unengaged fiancé even audaciously struck Hu Mingrui and Nie Tianming, two directors with significant authority, during the board meeting.

In no time at all, the entire Ye Corporation was abuzz with the news, and everyone was discussing the matter.

At that moment, Xiao Yifeng accompanied Ye Yaxin to an Audi A8, where a middle-aged man in a grey suit stood in front of the car and slightly bowed to Ye Yaxin, saying, "President, where do you need to go?"

"Back to the manor."

Ye Yaxin said in a cold voice, and then the middle-aged man opened the rear car door. Ye Yaxin got in, and Xiao Yifeng also took the opportunity to try to get in, but Ye Yaxin gave him a cold glance.

"Sit in front."

Seeing Ye Yaxin's icy gaze, Xiao Yifeng pouted and could only take a seat in the front, thinking to himself that his unengaged fiancée was really quite cold, and it seemed that winning her over wouldn't be such a simple matter after all.

Wang Jun, who served as the bodyguard-cum-driver for Ye Yaxin, gave Xiao Yifeng a look of surprise but didn't say much else, driving away from the Ye Corporation and heading towards the Ye Family Manor.

As one of Tianhai City's renowned Four Great Families, the Ye Family Manor was grand and vast, with artificial hills and green waters, swimming pools, and gardens—everything one could ask for.

The Audi A8 slowly entered the Ye Family Manor, where black-clad bodyguards were visible all around, showcasing the Ye Family's status as one of Tianhai's Four Great Clans.

"Follow me."

After getting out of the car, Ye Yaxin said and walked straight into a villa located at the center of the manor, with Xiao Yifeng leisurely following behind.

Entering the villa, they came to a room where an old man lay on a bed. With white hair and a face full of wrinkles, wearing an oxygen mask over his nose, the man looked gravely ill. It was Ye Tianxiong, the patriarch of the Ye Family.

Beside the bed stood another elderly man with gray hair, dressed in a Zhongshan suit. It was Mu Feng, Ye Tianxiong's personal housekeeper responsible for all his care.

"Miss, why have you come back?" Mu Feng said upon seeing Ye Yaxin, his gaze then shifting to Xiao Yifeng at her side.

"Grandpa Mu, I've brought someone here to have a look at Grandfather's illness," Ye Yaxin said, casting a glance at Xiao Yifeng, "It's your turn now. I hope you are not deceiving me; otherwise, you should be aware of the consequences."

"Wife, just leave it to me," Xiao Yifeng said with a sly smile.

Mu Feng's eyes swept over Xiao Yifeng once again.

Xiao Yifeng didn't say anything more. He placed his index and middle fingers together on the wrist of Ye Tianxiong's right hand, then his brow furrowed slightly as his eyes scanned the body of the other man, his pupils starting to emit specks of blue light, giving him a deep and eerie appearance.

Under Xiao Yifeng's gaze, Ye Tianxiong's entire body seemed to become transparent, with every part of his body clearly visible, as if he had X-ray vision.

And this was indeed a special ability of Xiao Yifeng—he had a pair of penetrating eyes, commonly referred to as X-ray vision.

"How is it?" Ye Yaxin couldn't help but ask.

"Old Master Ye has been poisoned, which has led to his current condition," Xiao Yifeng released his hand and declared.

"Poisoned!"

The faces of both Ye Yaxin and Mu Feng changed drastically, showing great shock.

"This is impossible. We've had many doctors look at Grandpa's illness, including the president of the Tianhai Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. None of them said Grandpa was poisoned," Ye Yaxin said with a frown.

"That's because their medical skills are too poor, and this poison is very tricky and special. Even the best doctors and machines can hardly detect it,"

Xiao Yifeng said indifferently, his eyes slightly narrowing into a slit, as if in deep thought.

"Someone actually poisoned the Old Master, how vicious!" Mu Feng said, with an angry expression on his face.

A sharp look flitted across Ye Yaxin's eyes as she turned to Xiao Yifeng, "Do you have a way to cure it?"

"Of course. The poison may seem formidable to others, but to me, it's merely child's play,"

Xiao Yifeng said very pretentiously, then took off the green shoulder bag he was wearing and pulled out a package wrapped in beast skin.

He unfolded the beast skin to reveal rows of silver needles of various lengths and thicknesses, among them nine golden needles, making up a total of several hundred.

Seeing these needles, both Mu Feng and Ye Yaxin's eyes sparkled.

Xiao Yifeng's right index and middle fingers swiped over the beast skin, and a silver needle, thin as a hair, appeared in his hand. His eyes then focused, and the silver needle rang out with a metallic sound. A glimmer of light flashed on it, and it turned rigid.

"Stop!"

Just then, a cold shout suddenly rang out in the room, and Ye Songming quickly walked in, accompanied by a middle-aged woman who was his wife, Du Huijuan.

"Uncle, what is the meaning of this?" Ye Yaxin looked at Ye Songming, her brows slightly furrowed as she spoke in a deep voice.

Ye Songming's eyes swept over Xiao Yifeng with a cold gaze, "This guy is a stranger, and his actions are odd. Now he wants to stick needles in the Old Master. I disagree. What if he harms the Old Master?"

"That's right, Yaxin, don't rush to seek medical help in your anxiety. Even Han, the most famous medical expert in Tianhai, couldn't cure your grandfather. How can you trust such a young man in his twenties? If the Old Master suffers any mishaps, who will take responsibility?"

Du Huijuan looked at Xiao Yifeng disdainfully and spoke with a sarcastic tone.

Ye Yaxin's gaze swept over Ye Songming, "Uncle, he just told me that Grandpa's condition is due to poisoning. Who do you think poisoned Grandpa?"

Whoosh!

Ye Songming's expression changed slightly, but he quickly replied, "How is that possible, Old Han has already examined the Old Master and found no sign of poison. This youngster is simply talking nonsense, and we must immediately throw him out."

"Guards!"

Following Ye Songming's command, several Ye Family guards quickly walked in.

"I'd like to see who dares," Ye Yaxin said coldly, her voice full of authority. "Whatever happens to my grandfather today, I will take responsibility."

"Begin the treatment," Ye Yaxin said, looking at Xiao Yifeng.

"Wife, should I throw this guy out? It would save us the noise of his babbling," Xiao Yifeng said with a twitch of his mouth.

"You..." Ye Songming's eyes flashed with anger as he stared at Xiao Yifeng, but he did not act rashly.

Xiao Yifeng held the silver needle and directly pierced it into Ye Tianxiong's Yintang acupoint, inserting two-thirds of the needle. It was a startling sight to behold.
