Chapter 210: Wanted Criminal

"Captain, identity confirmed. This person is Wu Tian, an important international wanted criminal." A team member had already confirmed Tian Ge's identity and placed him in handcuffs.

"You did this?" Ren Zhenghao frowned. The room smelled of blood; one of the wanted criminals had a large hole in his chest, and his blood had already drained away. Even for the SWAT team, such a ruthless person would be a handful. It was hard to imagine that Chen Yu had taken down this entire group.

"Yes, they had a conflict with me," Chen Yu said indifferently. "If you had arrived a step later, you would only be here to collect their corpses."

"Come back with me to clarify the situation," Ren Zhenghao said.

"Fine. This person is my brother-in-law; he has nothing to do with this. Let him get lost. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will tear him apart at the police station," Chen Yu said, pointing at Ye Chenguang, who had fainted on the ground.

"Fine, I'll let him go in a moment," Ren Zhenghao nodded.

After staying at the police station for two hours to clarify the matter, Ning Ruoxue came over and bailed Chen Yu out.

Although they were wanted criminals, Chen Yu had acted quite ruthlessly. Under normal circumstances, he would have had to stay there for forty-eight hours, but Ning Ruoxue had arrived. The police knew her reputation, and since Chen Yu had done nothing wrong, they didn't want to provoke Ning Ruoxue, so they released him.

"How did you get involved with these people?" Ning Ruoxue asked. "These guys are all heinous villains who have committed all sorts of crimes in war-torn regions abroad."

"I didn't want to either. If Ye Chenguang hadn't caused trouble, how would I have provoked these people?" Chen Yu frowned.

"Alright, go back quickly. Try not to reveal the identities of these people to your family to avoid causing panic," Ning Ruoxue said. "Also, although the other party were wanted criminals, a life was lost after all. The police might come to you frequently in the near future."

"I know," Chen Yu nodded.

"It's fine, I'm here. This is legitimate self-defense," Ning Ruoxue smiled. "Still in a cold war with your wife?"

"I'll stay outside for a few days; I'm not going back," Chen Yu gave a bitter smile.

"Kicked out?" Ning Ruoxue was stunned, then giggled. "Does she think you cheated?"

"This... it's hard to say. It's a combination of factors," Chen Yu sighed. "But it's true that she lacks a sense of security."

"Then why not make that bad reputation a reality and stay at my place?" Ning Ruoxue said seriously.

"Don't mess around," Chen Yu said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Go back now," Ning Ruoxue smiled slightly. "Coax her slowly."

"Alright, I'm leaving first," Chen Yu nodded. He headed back to Xinglinju first.

At Xinglinju, Zhao Anran had finished counting the incoming herbs. Just as she put down the list, Ye Xinyu hurried in.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Zhao Anran was startled and quickly said, "Sister-in-law, please sit down. I'll go pour you a glass of water."

"No need. I'm asking you, did Chen Yu take some things and put them here?" Ye Xinyu said coldly.

"Yes, Brother Yu did bring some medicinal materials to Xinglinju. What's wrong, sister-in-law?" Seeing her unfriendly tone, Zhao Anran couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Hand the things over," Ye Xinyu said.

"I... I should ask him first, okay? Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. I'll give him a call," Zhao Anran didn't understand the situation and certainly wouldn't hand the items over rashly.

"I am his wife. Do I need to ask him to take back his own things? Do I need your permission?" Ye Xinyu was furious. "I'll give you five minutes to bring the things out."

"Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry. Brother Yu brought these over and told me to keep them safe. I have to get his consent," Zhao Anran said.

"What is your relationship with him?" Ye Xinyu stared fixedly at Zhao Anran.

"He and I are just friends. I treat him like an older brother. Sister-in-law, please don't misunderstand," Zhao Anran explained hurriedly.

"Friends? Then why did he pack his things and leave early in the morning without returning home? Why did he put things he considers important in your Xinglinju? Do you really think I don't know what your relationship looks like in other people's eyes?" Ye Xinyu said sharply.

"Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry. We are just friends and business partners; it's really not what you think," Zhao Anran said anxiously. "He brought some precious medicinal materials; there's really nothing between us."

"Miss of the Zhao Family, your Xinglinju is a century-old brand and can at least be considered an Aristocratic Family of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Chen Yu is married, and I am carrying his child in my womb. With your relationship with him like this, do you have no sense of propriety, justice, integrity, or shame at all?"

The commotion on Ye Xinyu's side had already attracted the attention of some patients. The crowd around them grew larger and larger, and Zhao Anran was at a loss.

"Our Anran is not what you think, and her relationship with Chen Yu is not what you think either," Zhao Lao shouted.

"Grandfather," Zhao Anran cried out in grievance.

"You are her grandfather; you should be stopping your granddaughter even more. After all, the person she likes is a married man. She should cut off all ties with Chen Yu," Ye Xinyu said angrily.

"Simply unreasonable! Chen Yu has saved countless people at Xinglinju. His Medicine is unparalleled, and everyone respects his conduct and behavior. Yet, how did he end up marrying a wife like you?" Zhao Lao was furious.

"So, is your Xinglinju going to bully a pregnant woman with a big belly like me?" Ye Xinyu pointed at her stomach. "Has Chen Yu disregarded his own pregnant, wedded wife for the sake of your granddaughter?"

"Heavens, is this really happening?"

"Big gossip, this is truly big gossip."

"I didn't expect Little Doctor Chen to have a wife. Sigh, I really thought he and Anran were a couple before."

The surrounding crowd erupted into discussion with a boom, and Zhao Anran's tears finally couldn't help but fall...

"Xinyu, what are you doing?" Chen Yu, who had just arrived, was shocked. He never expected that Ye Xinyu would actually come here to cause trouble.

"Heh, Chen Yu, you've finally arrived, haven't you?" Ye Xinyu sneered. "You ran away from home and stayed at Xinglinju to make it more convenient to be with her, right?"

"Are those precious things of yours more important than my brother's life? Now that he is in someone else's hands, if those things aren't handed over, he will be hacked to death. In your eyes, is my family worth so little?"

The more Ye Xinyu spoke, the more agitated she became. "Chen Yu, have you ever really cared about me? I don't think there's any point in us continuing like this. If you think I'm not good enough for you, shall we get a divorce?"

"What are you saying?" Chen Yu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. What was Ye Xinyu doing? Divorce? Didn't she know what would happen to their relationship once those words were spoken?

"Do you need me to say it again? I don't know what the point of us being like this is. My brother was wrong, but now, is his life more important, or are your medicines? Did you run away from home just to be with her?"

"Shut up," Chen Yu finally couldn't take it anymore.
