Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 291 She Appeared...

Chapter 291: Chapter 291 She Appeared...

But as soon as Sheng Zhong finished speaking, a glint of ferocity flashed through Xiahou Yi’s eyes, who was at a loss for words.

"Sheng Zhong, do not push me. Considering the thirty years I’ve raised your son, I’ve already made significant concessions to you."

He was like a fierce beast, finally provoked on the battlefield, and began to warn fiercely.

Sheng Zhong laughed heartily, "Xiahou Yi, the concession you need to make is to give me back my person!"

"Guards!" Finally, murderous intent welled up in him.

"Drag this man out and dispose of him!" he roared ferociously.

Soon, many fully armed guards appeared in the garden, rushing towards Sheng Zhong.

Sheng Zhong did not show a trace of panic at the sight.

"Xiahou Yi, you better think it through. If I die here today, your father won’t be able to enjoy his good days tomorrow."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is... before coming here, I’ve already reached agreements with several foreign oil companies. If I don’t return, tomorrow morning, the oil fields under Shengshi Group’s control will belong to them."

Sheng Zhong said casually.

In an instant, upon hearing these words, Xiahou Yi was both shocked and furious, almost swinging his fist at Sheng Zhong’s face right then and there.

"Thud!"

Sheng Zhong, who had been cold in the garden all day, was immediately knocked to the ground.

Xiahou Yi pointed at him, cursing uncontrollably, "You beast, do you realize what you’re doing? You’re selling out the country!!"

"Selling out the country?" Sheng Zhong, sitting on the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"It doesn’t matter. After all, I’m just a businessman, and I’m old. What difference does it make to me?"

"You—" Xiahou Yi was enraged to death.

Although this man was autocratic and ethically questionable, in terms of loyalty and righteousness to his home and country, he was impeccable. After all, under his rule for these decades, the world had always been at peace.

Sheng Zhong knew this full well, which is why he dared to hold these oil fields as leverage over him with such confidence.

"Fine, since you’re so indifferent, I shall fulfill your wish!"

After waiting for more than ten seconds, unexpectedly, this powerful, dominating figure did not succumb to the pressure after his brief burst of thunderous rage.

Sheng Zhong’s face changed instantly!

Seeing the guards who had firmly grabbed his arms, panic set in: "Xiahou Yi, what are you planning? I warn you, don’t act rashly. If I die here, your world will be thrown into chaos."

"Rest assured, Sheng Zhong, before you die, I’ll nationalize your entire Shengshi Group. That way, your commands will be utterly useless."

Xiahou Yi slowly approached Sheng Zhong.

Towering over him as if he was the master of this world, he casually threw out such a heartless and arrogant decision.

Sheng Zhong’s eyes immediately turned bloodshot!

"You dare!" he roared.

"That’s my personal asset, Sheng Zhong. By what right do you nationalize it? No matter how powerful you are, you can’t dismiss the rule of law; what you’re doing is illegal!"

"Illegal?" Xiahou Yi let out another cold laugh.

"What is illegal? Sheng Zhong, let me tell you, here, I, Xiahou Yi, am the law!"

He finally uttered that most shameless and arrogant statement, word by word.

Sheng Zhong opened his mouth but could no longer voice even a whisper.

Honestly, for someone standing at the pinnacle of power to say such a thing, as an ordinary citizen, there really was no room to resist.

Just like an ancient emperor who wanted to confiscate your property, what could you do?

Sheng Zhong collapsed on the ground.

But just as he was about to be dragged away and Xiahou Yi stood by with a disdainful expression, suddenly, there was a disturbance at the main gate of the mansion.

"Ah—"

A scream of agony!

Even the members of the Guard Squad had been knocked to the ground.

Xiahou Yi’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he immediately looked up, only to see a young woman in a white down coat, her small face hardly bigger than a palm, walking toward him with a pair of exceptionally sharp amber-colored pupils.

"General Xiahou, if you say so, isn’t it a bit ironic that your family has been secluded for so many years?"

She stood before him, and a sword-like gaze shot from her eyes, causing Xiahou Yi to actually feel a chill.

Who was she?

So young, and yet, she showed no fear of him.

Xiahou Yi’s pupils contracted, and a dangerous glint appeared in his aged eyes.

"And who might you be? Who let you in here?"

"My name is Yin Hehe, I’m his daughter-in-law, and Sheng Siyuan’s wife. I’m here today to take them back home!"

Yin Hehe swept her gaze across Sheng Zhong, who was being dragged by the guards, and fearlessly announced her identity once more.

At her words, the old man’s gaze narrowed slightly.

"So it is you!" He actually showed an expression of sudden realization.

"I know you, you have another name, Lan Yi, don’t you?"

Indeed, he even knew of her identity under that name.

Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe instantly let a cold, mocking smile flicker across her eyes, which were as icy as snow.

"It seems I am honored that an esteemed person like yourself is aware of that name," she expressed her sense of honor.

Xiahou Yi saw her erect a brief defense, then he let out a cold laugh and resumed his contempt.

Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that he had never taken anyone seriously.

"What? You think just because you’ve arrived, you can take people away?" he mocked.

Yin Hehe laughed.

"And why not? My father-in-law is a businessman, but I am not!"

"What do you mean?"

"It means... you can mess with my father-in-law, but not with me, General Xiahou. I am an enforcer of the law, and moreover, I am the president of the most famous Law Enforcement Association in the world. Those words you said about confiscating the Shengshi Group, if I want to, I can file a lawsuit against you in the International Court straight away!"

Yin Hehe took out her phone and pressed it in front of this old man, and immediately, his words just now played back from within.

"What is the law? I’ll tell you, Sheng Zhong, here, I, Xiahou Yi, am the law!"

"!!!!!"

The garden was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

And as for Xiahou Yi, his face underwent a huge change, and he immediately drew his gun.

"Don’t kill her!" Sheng Zhong saw this and immediately struggled to rush over and protect Yin Hehe.

Yet, facing the dark muzzle, Yin Hehe remained astonishingly calm.

"Don’t worry, he can’t kill me," she said lightly.

"Xiahou Yi, would you believe that if this bullet were to be fired, I could make you famous throughout all of Hell? I could even topple your ’Royal Power’?"

She put away her phone, and as her gaze once again turned to this imperiously overbearing tyrant, her chillingly cold amber eyes glimmered with the light of Hell itself.

Xiahou Yi: "..."

Just as he was about to pull the trigger, a figure rushed over from behind at breakneck speed.

"General, something is wrong! The Ministry of Foreign Affairs just called, saying many spokespersons from other countries’ defense departments have made calls, as if probing for any changes in the domestic situation?"

"..."
