Ch. 301..305: Mr CEO Ex-wife Escapes Again Chapter 301-305

Chapter 301: Still Knows to Protect Her Even When Being Foolish

Xiahou Yi was ultimately scolded by the dean to the point where he had nothing to say in return.

He returned to the ward again and saw the man inside, who now refused to lie in the bed and instead stood in front of the window, fiddling with a pot of flowers. He walked away in utter dejection.

That day, no one else visited the separate ward.

When Yin Hehe awoke, it was already the afternoon. Lying in bed, she opened her eyes and took a while to come to her senses before climbing out of bed and going downstairs.

"Miss Han, you’re awake. Are you all right?"

The nurse, seeing her finally awake, hurriedly asked with concern.

Yin Hehe nodded with a pale face and glanced toward the hospital room, asking, "How is he doing?"

"What else can he do? He kept making a fuss about going out to play. It was not easy to coax him to sleep," the nurse sighed and said.

Immediately, Yin Hehe felt as if her heart had been stabbed by something. She leaned on the railing. After a long while, dragging her heavy legs, she walked step by step towards the ward.

This was an unexpected accident that she had never anticipated. She never thought such a strong man, so clever and capable...

One day, it turned out he would become foolish!

Yin Hehe stood at the doorway of the ward. Seeing the man quietly sleeping on the bed, her eyes moistened again.

"Miss Han, we are leaving. The dean told us to go back," the doctor said, appearing behind her unnoticed as she finally came downstairs.

Yin Hehe immediately turned around, "What do you mean? Are you not going to care for him? He might still get better. What does it mean to leave now?"

She asked sharply.

The doctor heard her and showed a hint of shame, along with helplessness.

"We have no choice. If the dean tells us to go back, we have to go. Besides, the old General Xiahou didn’t say anything. There’s no point in staying," the doctor said.

"..."

His words reignited the rage in Yin Hehe, making her want to rush to the Xiahou residence immediately and curse out loud at that old bastard.

When he was fine, they tried by all means to snatch him away.

Now that he’s become foolish, they just toss him aside and ignore him?

Fine!

Then she would take him back to Jiangbei. The Shengshi Group was so vast; if they didn’t save him, the Sheng Family would!

Without further attempts to hold them back, Yin Hehe entered the ward.

Strangely enough, as she sat down on the hospital bed, the man who had been sleeping awoke.

"You’re awake?"

She noticed and did not startle him this time.

Instead, she sat at the edge of the bed, her eyes brimming with tears as she gazed at him with such tender expressions as if to wrap his shadow deep within her body.

Sheng Siyuan was stunned.

After a while, within that blurry teary vision, as if no longer sensing danger, he looked away and climbed out of the bed, heading toward the door of the ward.

"Husband, where are you going?"

Yin Hehe, seeing that he was heading out, quickly followed after him in fear.

But the man who was already at the door, seeing her chasing after him, suddenly showed a flash of panic on his handsome face and hurried off running.

Seeing this made Yin Hehe’s heart nearly leap out of her chest.

His body was actually fine now; counting the time, it had been almost two months since the surgery, and even the severest injuries would have healed.

So, he was especially fast now.

By the time Yin Hehe reached the gate of the separate courtyard, he had already run out, leaving her in such a hurry that she chased after him without a moment’s delay.

"Ayuan, where are you going? Stop!" she shouted from behind.

At that moment, she also realized that the person who had always been protected in this separate courtyard was gone.

In the end, it was at the intersection up ahead where suddenly a figure appeared and charged toward them, not noticing and bumping into the man, causing both to fall down.

"Ayuan!" Yin Hehe saw what happened and immediately ran over in a panic.

Fortunately, when she got there, she found that the man who had fallen to the ground was not seriously injured; he was only looking at the person who had knocked him over with a sense of panic, constantly scooting backward.

Yin Hehe immediately stepped forward and embraced him.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m here!" she held him tightly, and at the same time, her sharp gaze locked firmly on the person who had bumped into him.

It was also a man.

However, he had a greasy and powdered appearance and was wearing a flowery shirt. After bumping into the other man, he got up and cursed loudly, "Are you blind or what? How dare you bump into me!"

When Sheng Siyuan was pointed at and berated, he shrank even more into Yin Hehe’s embrace.

Seeing this, Yin Hehe became furious!

"Who is the blind one here? Picking a fight with the Xiahou Family, do you have a death wish?"

She warned him fiercely!

Upon hearing they were from the Xiahou Family, the arrogance of the greasy-faced man withered away instantly.

"I... I won’t argue with you..." he grumbled and got up to run away.

Because Yin Hehe was concerned about the emotional state of the man in her arms, she didn’t pay much attention at first, but then she inadvertently noticed bloodstains on the clothes of the man.

Suddenly, she thought of something.

"Are you Duan Jiu’s son?" she asked coldly.

The greasy-haired man who had just stood up stopped when he heard this.

"You know me?"

"Isn’t that separate courtyard next to us Duan Family’s property? What did you do there? Why is there blood on you? Did you really kill that woman?"

Yin Hehe asked with an icy sternness.

She was also very confused inside, her own affairs were a mess, but upon seeing the blood on this man, she still worried about the safety of the woman from last night.

Duan Yongping’s expression indeed changed.

"This wretch, she actually came to look for you?" he immediately revealed a crack of viciousness and murderous intent in his eyes.

Yin Hehe’s face grew even colder when she saw this.

"What exactly did you do to her? After all, she’s borne you children; how can you have the heart to treat her so cruelly?"

"What do you understand? She’s just a slave I bought with money; dying by my hands is her good fortune!"

This beast dared to utter such words.

In a flash, Yin Hehe became uncontrollably angry, she took out her cellphone to call the police, "Hello, is this the police?"

"You dare to call the police?"

Duan Yongning was infuriated, he dashed forward with a leap, and grabbed harshly at the phone in Yin Hehe’s hand.

Caught off guard and with Sheng Siyuan leaning on her, Yin Hehe’s hand suddenly hurt, and she not only had her phone snatched away.

Her fingernail was brutally broken by the snatch.

"Ah..."

The pain was so intense that tears came to her eyes.

Duan Yongning smashed the phone forcefully to the ground!

"I’m telling you, just because you are with the Xiahou Family doesn’t mean I won’t dare to lay a hand on you, I..."

"Thud!"

Before he could finish his sentence, a foot suddenly kicked out at him with such speed and force that Duan Yongning hadn’t even had the chance to react before he was sent flying into the ditch filled with filthy water beside the road.

Duan Yongning: "Help—"

Yin Hehe: "..."

It took her more than ten seconds to snap out of her daze, and bit by bit, her gaze shifted to the man standing protectively in front of her.

Now, after having kicked the man away, he was dusting off his trouser legs with an elegant air!

Chapter 302: Why So Cute?

Yin Hehe stood there dazed for a long time until she seemed to hear the sound of a child crying, and only then did she snap back to reality.

"Is that the woman’s child?" She quickly grabbed the arm of the man in front of her and started pulling him towards the direction of the crying.

The man was caught off guard and stumbled as she dragged him along.

But he did not struggle.

Minutes later, indeed, Yin Hehe went a little further into the fork in the road and saw a little girl with disheveled hair and a dress stained with blood, standing there and bawling her eyes out.

"Mommy..."

She was calling for her mom, and in her tear-filled, little eyes was a look of terror.

Yin Hehe’s heart ached immediately.

She rushed over and scooped up the child: "Xiaobao, where is your mom?"

"Mommy..." The little girl cried out again, but due to her young age, she could not express anything else.

Yin Hehe didn’t ask any more questions and just charged ahead with the child in her arms.

"Husband, hurry up and follow me, we need to check ahead, something must have happened."

As she moved forward, she kept looking back at the man behind her.

However, since she let go of him, the man seemed to become oblivious to her, standing on the road looking around, and eventually, he noticed a small tree by the road laden with fruit and went to pick some, utterly ignoring everything else.

Yin Hehe: "..."

When she turned back and saw this scene, she was somewhat torn between laughter and tears.

"Husband, we can pick those later, now, let’s go inside and save people, alright?"

She had no choice but to go back and grab his arm again.

Fortunately, once he was grabbed again, he complied quietly, letting her pull him inside.

After about twenty minutes, Yin Hehe finally saw a simple three-story house ahead, and with the child in her arms, she immediately ran toward it.

"Miss Jiang, are you inside? Are you alright?"

She got to the door and started calling into the house.

But after shouting several times, there was no response from inside, whereas the child in her arms, upon seeing they had returned, began to struggle down from her arms and ran inside.

"Mommy!!" She screamed and cried at the same time.

Yin Hehe followed behind her, still dragging a man by the hand.

Indeed, once they entered the house, they immediately saw a woman lying in a pool of blood in the living room, motionless, and it was unknown whether she was dead or alive.

"Miss Jiang!" Yin Hehe’s face turned pale as she dragged the man alongside her and rushed in.

However, just as she entered the living room and before she could kneel down, the man beside her, upon seeing the pool of bloody fluid, turned instantly pale.

Then, with a "thump."

He collapsed!

"Husband!!!" Yin Hehe was completely terrified, not knowing whom to attend to first.

One hour later, at the Xiahou Family’s separate residence.

Xiahou Jingmu looked at the man still unconscious in bed and comforted her with a word, "Don’t worry, the doctor said he just fainted at the sight of blood, he’ll be fine once he wakes up!"

"Mhm."

Still unsettled, Yin Hehe nodded her head gratefully.

"What about... Jiang Jing and her child? How are they doing after being sent to the hospital? Has Jiang Jing been rescued?"

Yin Hehe, recalling the incident, quickly asked.

An hour earlier, when she was at her wits’ end in the little house, thankfully, this man had also heard the noise and rushed over, managing to send the mother and daughter to the hospital.

Xiahou Jingmu nodded, "They are out of mortal danger now, I’ve already notified the Duan Family, Duan Jiu should be taking care of this matter, you don’t need to worry."

He also reassured Yin Hehe with a sentence.

Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe’s heart also eased, and she glanced at the bloodstain that was there before. She was about to change her clothes when Xiahou Jingmu stopped her from behind.

"What are you planning to do now? My uncle might be taken back tomorrow morning."

"What?" Yin Hehe suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at him with utter astonishment.

"Go back? Back where?" she asked urgently.

Xiahou Jingmu smiled, "Of course, to the Xiahou Royal Mansion. He is my uncle, after all; he can only live there."

"But he’s gone mad now, would the old Xiahou General still want to take him back? I saw today that he completely ignored him and just left."

Yin Hehe asked with a mix of shock and anger.

This disrupted her plan. She had intended to take this man back to Jiangbei, and moreover, she had already notified the elder of the Sheng Family. With this sudden development, how was she supposed to explain things to him?

"Mad or not, he’s still his son. Do you think he would just abandon him?"

Unaware of the truth, Xiahou Jingmu showed an expression of helpless amusement upon hearing her words.

Yin Hehe was instantly furious!

No, she hoped that old man would ignore the matter, who cares? When everything was fine, he used every means to snatch him away, and now when there’s trouble, he just dumped him here, without a care.

Did he really think this man was unwanted?

She would tell him that everyone in the Sheng Family treasured him like a gem.

Yin Hehe couldn’t hide her anger: "He can ignore him, right? Now that he’s become a burden since he’s gone mad, being known would tarnish his reputation. It’s not bad to be rid of him!"

She said indignantly.

Xiahou Jingmu was taken aback. As he looked into her eyes, he saw nothing but rage and contempt. He became somewhat puzzled.

Wasn’t she just a servant brought in by his grandfather? Why would she have this attitude?

Whose side was she really on?

Xiahou Jingmu was left with a trace of doubt in his mind.

That night, after Xiahou Jingmu had left, Yin Hehe returned to the sickroom and looked at the man lying on the bed who had yet to awaken. His small face, no bigger than a palm, was tightly furrowed in the moonlight streaming in through the window.

She had to go back to Xiahou Yi, what should she do now?

He was in this state now, why wouldn’t that old man let him be?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she couldn’t help but stand up, ready to call that old man, but suddenly movement stirred from the sickbed behind her.

"Mhm..."

After a long slumber, when the man slowly opened his eyes, his gaze toward the ceiling was blank.

Of course, even if he hadn’t been sleeping, she supposed he would have looked the same given his current condition.

Yin Hehe immediately returned to his side.

"Husband, you’re awake? Are you hungry? Shall I go make you some food?"

She extended her hand considerately, wanting to help him up from the bed, but the moment she touched him, he suddenly recoiled as if electrocuted, avoiding her touch.

A pair of eyes that were especially shiny and black in the night stared at her in complete panic.

Yin Hehe: "..."

This reaction, though she had seen it once during the day, still felt like a stab in her heart when she saw it again now.

Had he truly gone mad?

That afternoon, when he kicked Duan Yongning, she had harbored hope that maybe he was feigning it?

After all, he was so clever; perhaps knowing his predicament, he had his own plan, so he pretended to be mad to break free from this trap.

But now it seemed she had thought too much.

Because, there were no other people here...

Chapter 303 Unchangeable Nature

"Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you, I just want to ask if you’re hungry? Do you want something to eat?"

Yin Hehe could only endure the discomfort in her heart as she coaxed the man like one would a child.

Upon hearing this, the man huddled in the corner finally relaxed a bit in his expression.

However, he did not nod.

Or perhaps, he didn’t understand what she was saying at all. After a brief calm, he got down from the bed by himself.

"Where are you going?" Yin Hehe saw that he was starting to walk outside again and had to quickly follow.

Fortunately, since it was nighttime, the courtyard gate was closed, and after going out, he could only wander around the yard.

So, Yin Hehe watched as he came out, looked around the courtyard, and suddenly, when he saw the osmanthus tree planted in the middle of the yard, he began to look up as if he was searching for something.

"This is an osmanthus tree, what are you looking for?"

Yin Hehe walked up beside him, patiently explaining to him.

But no sooner had her words fallen, she saw him grab a handful of leaves and stuff them into his mouth.

"Ah? You can’t eat those! You can’t eat those leaves!"

Yin Hehe quickly grabbed hold of him.

But perhaps he was hungry, he paid no attention to Yin Hehe’s pulling and even pushed her aside, before running to a corner of the wall and squatting down with the leaves.

Then, he began to eat voraciously.

Yin Hehe’s eyes immediately turned red, she watched dumbfounded for several seconds, then without trying to snatch the leaves away anymore, she quickly went into the kitchen, washed a red sweet potato that was given by the mother and daughter last time, took it out, and approached the man.

"Here, eat this!" She forced out a smile and handed the red sweet potato to him.

The man was frowning as he ate.

That was because he found it unpalatable, bitter, dry, and tough... squatting there and feeling stifled.

When he suddenly saw the woman extend something toward him, he looked at her warily. After a moment, he forcefully snatched it from her hand.

"Crunch!" When he bit into it, the sweetness of the red sweet potato spread to his taste buds.

In an instant, his beautiful ink-black eyes widened.

Delicious!

He immediately started to gnaw on it with loud "crunch, crunch" sounds.

Yin Hehe watched him and couldn’t help but laugh a little, but after laughing, she felt particularly heartbroken.

He had once been so high and mighty, a favored child of heaven, brought up in luxury, with everything provided for him at the slightest gesture, always having the best of everything. But now, he had come to this state.

Yin Hehe then turned and dashed back into the kitchen, fetching all sorts of prepared sweets.

She had prepared them for him long ago.

"These are dumplings, go ahead and eat, they’re very tasty!"

"..."

He tossed the red sweet potato aside and began stuffing the dumplings into his mouth one after another.

Hmm, even more delicious!

Then there were sweet cakes, rice, aromatic chicken drumsticks...

Eventually, the man couldn’t even squat in the corner because he was so full, eating while looking painfully distressed. Yin Hehe couldn’t help but wince and went straight over to pull him up.

"Come on, let’s sit and eat. It’ll be more comfortable."

"Hmm!" This time he actually nodded and obediently followed her to the dining table.

Yin Hehe was overjoyed.

Therefore, late that night, she watched over him as he ate until his belly was round, and then she took him to the bathroom.

"We’ve eaten our fill, how about we take a bath?"

"..."

He didn’t react much and kept smelling his hand, because it still retained the scent of the chicken drumstick.

Yin Hehe saw that and suddenly thought of her daughter, the little foodie. The resemblance to him at this moment was uncanny. Could it be that the food-loving trait was inherited from him?

Yin Hehe started to run the bathwater.

The sound of the rushing water filled the bathtub and finally caught his attention. He was extremely curious and came over to watch the tub intently.

Seeing this, Yin Hehe didn’t disturb him, but instead went to the room to fetch his clothes.

However, she found that when she came back, the man was squatting next to the bathtub, holding onto its edges with both hands like a child, excitedly watching the water that was about to overflow.

Yin Hehe: "..."

Seeing this, she thought giving him a bath might not be too difficult.

Yin Hehe placed the clothes behind her and came over with a towel.

"Shall we take a bath?"

She handed him the towel.

But he just looked up at her and continued to stare at the bathtub.

Yin Hehe: "..."

Could she really expect an idiot to bathe himself?

Yin Hehe gave up, her face blushing as she pulled the man up and began to undress him.

Man: "..."

He watched as each button was undone, tilting his head, and after a moment, he looked blankly at the woman in front of him.

Yin Hehe’s face flushed even more, and she had to coax him: "Let’s go play in the water!"

Play in the water?

He understood those words, and suddenly, his beautiful dark pupils lit up like stars, and he quickly pulled his clothes off with a tug!

There was no need for Yin Hehe to take her time, as all of his clothes were torn off by him.

Yin Hehe: "!!!!"

Stunned, she watched as the man stood there naked, all the blood rushing to her head, reminded of that day at the Drug Rehabilitation Center in Y City, when he had done the same.

She immediately wanted to find a hole to crawl into!

"????"

Yet, how pure and innocent his gaze was; seeing her stand still, he even looked at her with a perplexed expression.

As if asking when he could go in.

Yin Hehe had no choice but to suppress the flush of embarrassment on her face, trying her best not to look at any other parts of this jerk as she grabbed his arm, leading him into the bathtub like dealing with a child.

In an instant, when he touched the water, he became as excited as if he had discovered a new world, his expression lighting up!

"Splash!"

A huge splash of water flew from his body, soaking Yin Hehe’s clothes by the tub.

"You—"

"Pfft!"

Even more outrageous!

Seeing Yin Hehe’s drenched appearance, he seemed to find even greater joy, and decided to scoop up water in the bathtub and splash it towards her!

Yin Hehe: "!!!!"

Grinding her teeth, she finally erupted as well, grabbing a basin next to her, scooping a basin full of water from the bathtub, and pouring it down on this guy’s head!

"Whoosh!!"

In an instant, a gasp of cold air came from his throat as he sat soaked in the tub, his whole body shivering.

Seeing this, Yin Hehe felt the man should be more subdued now.

But unexpectedly, as soon as she threw away the basin, that damned fool stood up in the bathtub, let out an excited shout, and reached out to grab her, dragging her into the bathtub with him!

"Splash!!"

A huge splash.

The entire bathroom was nearly flooded!!

Chapter 304: Won’t Let Go Even If You’re Foolish

Yin Hehe never imagined growing up only to be dragged into playing such a childish game!

She was pulled into the bathtub, and instantly her entire body was soaked.

However, the man seemed even more excited, when he saw that her body was also wet, his attractive ink-black eyes, adorned with droplets, paused for a while, and suddenly, he reached out to tear at Yin Hehe’s clothes.

"Take it off!"

He actually spoke.

Yin Hehe was both happy and surprised in an instant, she clumsily covered her clothes, hurriedly coaxing the guy, "I won’t take it off, if both people are undressed, we could fall over!"

She frantically searched for a reason.

Joking aside, although he’s foolish now, he’s still a normal man, who could guarantee what might happen if they both were naked? This wasn’t at home, after all.

Fortunately, after she said this, the fellow in the bathtub cocked his head and looked at her for a while, and in the end, he believed her words.

Thus, that evening, Yin Hehe accompanied him in wild play for a long time.

Not until both were completely exhausted did he obediently let her put on her nightgown, and they left the bathroom together.

She was dead tired!

Yin Hehe also fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

A good night’s sleep.

The next day, when Yin Hehe opened her eyes, what she saw were a pair of calm, beautiful, ink-black eyes staring right at her.

He was so close that in the bright light, Yin Hehe could even see her own reflection in his eyes.

What’s going on?

Her sleepiness disappeared in an instant!

Wanting to get up immediately, she realized the man who had shown panic at the sight of her the previous times upon waking, today, when he saw her eyes open, didn’t panic or avoid her.

Instead, his eyes curved, and he suddenly poked her cheek with his hand.

Yin Hehe: "..."

Her mind went "buzz" just like that; staring at his bright and radiant smile, she couldn’t move any longer.

He was no longer afraid of her.

He was even taking the initiative to get close to her!!

Yin Hehe felt as if her heart, right in her chest, was so excited this early in the morning that it might just pop out of her throat.

"Husband? Do you remember me now?" she asked, unable to suppress her trembling voice.

Unfortunately, he didn’t react much to that question, after poking for a while and seeing Yin Hehe still not getting up.

He became unhappy.

He turned around, directly threw off the quilt, and got out of bed.

Yin Hehe noticed and then realized what was happening, hastily following him as she got up.

"Husband, are you hungry?"

She roughly guessed his intentions and quickly asked from behind him.

And indeed, as soon as she said that, he obediently stopped by the door, looking back at her with eager eyes.

Yin Hehe smiled, her eyes brimming with tears.

Half an hour later, just as she had made a bowl of egg noodles and the man began eating heartily with his chopsticks.

Someone arrived outside.

"What are you doing?" A very unwelcoming voice came in as the person strode into this place and threw in the question.

Yin Hehe heard it and came out from inside.

"Old General, is that you?" She saw who it was, and her pretty face instantly turned cold.

Xiahou Yi glanced at her, his gaze then landed on the man eating noodles in the dining room, and his expression wasn’t great either.

"Get ready and come back with me!"

He didn’t even bother with a single pleasantry; he just bluntly demanded to take her back.

Yin Hehe, upon hearing this, felt the anger that had been pent up in her chest since yesterday suddenly flare up.

"Go back? Weren’t you the one who didn’t want him anymore? Why should he go back with you then?"

She said sarcastically.

Xiahou Yi’s face darkened instantly, and he denied, "When have I ever said that I didn’t want him? Don’t spout nonsense!"

"Then why did you run away as soon as you heard he’d become foolish yesterday? And what’s more, you withdrew the doctor. Xiahou Yi, he just discovered something wrong with his brain, and you show such an attitude—don’t you feel that you’re very despicable?"

Yin Hehe continued to retaliate with the same intensity, her merciless rebuke making the old man’s veins pop out on the spot!

"Yin Hehe, don’t be insolent!" He, humiliated and furious, roared.

But that was all he could shout; he had no comeback for the rest, because everything Yin Hehe said was the truth.

Xiahou Jingmu had just arrived outside the courtyard when he heard the quarrel inside, and he stopped in his tracks.

Yin Hehe?

So, this maid was not Han Lina, but... his little aunt!

"What are you standing around for? Hurry up and take the young master away!"

After being sternly reprimanded and left speechless, Xiahou Yi no longer wanted to argue with the woman in front of him.

He simply intended to take the man away by force.

Seeing this, Yin Hehe immediately stepped forward and blocked the entrance to the dining room.

"I’d like to see who dares to take him away today," she declared, unafraid and emphatic.

"Xiahou Yi, if you still want to take him back now, just to showcase your reputation as a loving father to the world, then you need not bother. Because, once you take him back, you’ll have to provide for him forever. If he dies or disappears, Xiahou Yi, I guess your reputation will be even more tarnished!"

Yin Hehe added another sentence.

This remark was undoubtedly another slap in the face, leaving the old man’s entire face turning green.

Even Xiahou Jingmu, who had heard the exchange from outside, was silently impressed.

It seemed that the rumors were true; his little uncle was formidable, and so was his little uncle’s wife.

"Yin Hehe, listen well, I’m only going to say this once," said Xiahou Yi, pushed to the edge, finally forcing himself to answer her amidst his rage.

"I won’t deny that my keeping him here is out of my own selfishness, but have you considered this? If I send him back, will he be safe? He may be foolish now, but as soon as someone finds out he is Xiahou Yi’s illegitimate son, do you think they will spare him?"

"..."

With that one statement, Yin Hehe, standing in front of the dining room, suddenly felt a chill down her back, and she found herself speechless.

She hadn’t considered this.

Ever since she found out this man had become foolish yesterday, her mind was solely focused on taking him back to Jiangbei.

As for the other issues, she really hadn’t thought about them.

"Yes, Miss Han, what my great-grandfather is doing is indeed for the protection of my little uncle, as well as Shengshi Group. If they knew that my little uncle was the president of Shengshi, they would surely see it as a juicy piece of meat ready to be devoured,"

Xiahou Jingmu also came in and added his piece after seeing the woman still standing there, stunned with no response.

Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe’s face paled, and she finally fell silent...

No, she couldn’t let Shengshi fall into trouble; it was what this man, before heading to Chongzhou, had tried his utmost to preserve.

In the end, Yin Hehe chose to compromise.

That very day, she accompanied Sheng Siyuan back to Xiahou Yi’s mansion.
