Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 314: Human Heart

Chapter 314: Chapter 314: Human Heart

Yin Hehe was taken away when Xiahou Yi flipped his most prized tea set off the table and onto the floor!

"Clang!"

The antique worth hundreds of millions instantly shattered on the floor, and ironically, the dust it raised in the sunlight streaming through the window panes looked particularly beautiful.

The old butler sighed heavily.

"General, please calm down. Xiaoyin pushed herself forward for your sake. What we need to do now is figure out how to rescue her!"

He reminded his master.

Xiahou Yi, upon hearing this, finally lifted his face which seemed to have aged several years and looked forward.

"Make arrangements, I want to meet with a few people from the judiciary."

"Yes!"

"And, during this time, remember to keep a close eye on that troublemaker, don’t let him go out and cause more problems!"

He added a special reminder, obviously referring to Sheng Siyuan.

The old butler heard him, but he didn’t dare tell his master that, just as Yin Hehe was being taken away, that man had already looked very wrong.

Although at that time, Yin Hehe had made up an excuse to calm him down and a gentle servant had taken him away.

But for some reason? He always felt that his gaze just then was especially sharp, like a knife.

The old butler left the main hall.

"You guys, go find young master Jingmu and tell him I want to see him," he ordered a servant.

It wasn’t long before the servant went to find Xiahou Jingmu. By the time he rushed over, Xiahou had already left with people to meet with the heads of the judicial department, leaving only the old butler waiting for him in the estate.

"Grandfather Zhong, what do you need me for?"

"Young master Jingmu, I want you to take your uncle to He’anli for a while," the old butler said directly without beating around the bush.

He’anli?

Hearing this place name, Xiahou Jingmu was very surprised: "Why take him there? The estate is in chaos now, why are you sending my uncle there?"

"Ah..." The old butler sighed.

"You may not know, the young master now refuses everyone but Xiao Niang. Though he doesn’t remember her, for some reason? Whenever she’s not by his side, he looks for her. Maybe, this is the conjugal love carved into their bones!"

When the old butler spoke the last sentence, he still felt very sad.

He had seen many a man and woman’s love in this world, but it was this young couple, from the moment he knew about them, it was as if they had retaught an old lesson to this aged man.

They proved to him that not everyone in this world is heartless.

Xiahou Jingmu was stunned.

He had heard about Yin Hehe being taken away early on. He hadn’t been there, but he was actually keeping an eye on every move in this estate.

So, when Yin Hehe was taken, he knew about it right away. He was surprised that a woman would go to such lengths for a man.

Now, hearing the old butler’s words, he found it even more unbelievable.

Having lost his mind, he could still remember a woman?

He suddenly felt somewhat envious.

"Alright, I understand. I’ll make arrangements now."

Xiahou Jingmu agreed, and soon after, he arrived in the small courtyard behind the estate where Yin Hehe and her family lived.

"Uncle, are you in there?"

He called out at the entrance of the courtyard, seeing that it was quiet inside, he called out from outside first.

There was no sound.

In this courtyard, it seemed as if no one was around.

Could it be that he really ran off?

His face changed immediately, and he strode in with great steps, heading straight towards the main wing of the house.

However, he found that when he pushed the door open, he could see a man quietly sitting inside, not making any fuss or noise, still playing with his phone by the window, the splendid sunshine casting a handsome sidelight on him.

Xiahou Jingmu was taken aback.

Why was he so quiet? Wasn’t it said that he would make a fuss if he didn’t see that woman?

Xiahou Jingmu walked in.

As soon as his footsteps hit the ground, the man violently lifted his head, his eyes shining as they looked toward him.

Xiahou Jingmu: "..."

Just in that moment, he suddenly seemed to understand why there was such brightness in his eyes, and he began to feel somewhat guilty.

"Little Uncle, it’s me. Auntie hasn’t returned yet, she sent me to pick you up."

"..."

The light in the man’s eyes had already dimmed upon seeing him.

But upon hearing Xiahou Jingmu’s words, he looked toward him again.

Xiahou Jingmu quickly nodded, "I’m telling the truth, she asked me to take you to He’anli, saying that she would go there to find you once she was finished with her work. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the butler."

To get him to believe it, he specifically brought the butler into the discussion.

Sure enough, upon hearing this person’s name, the man with the phone tilted his head to think for a moment, then he eventually got up.

Xiahou Jingmu was overjoyed!

Soon, a black SUV took the two of them from the royal mansion, speeding towards He’anli, the ancestral home of the Xiahou family. Meanwhile, Xiahou Yi was with several officials from the Ministry of Justice, dining in the capital’s finest hotel.

"Please take a seat!"

Xiahou Yi had chosen the best private room and indicated for everyone to sit down.

Actually, for decades, Xiahou Yi had never taken the initiative to invite anyone to dine with him. His status was such that people always flattered and courted him, when had it ever been his turn to solicit others?

When Xiahou Yi sat down, he felt a bit uncomfortable.

But he quickly adjusted himself.

"Waiter, bring me the jar of wine from my private collection. Also, check if there are any good dishes today and bring them over as well."

He ordered the waiter to bring the best wine and dishes available.

Upon seeing this, the officials from the Ministry of Justice were visibly flattered.

"General Xiahou, how can we let you spend so much? Anything simple will do."

"Indeed, General Xiahou, such fine things we dare not consume!"

They all started to refuse, fearing that if they couldn’t accomplish the task after eating, it would be troublesome.

However, Xiahou Yi ignored them and, after instructing the waiter to leave, he picked up the teapot on the table and personally poured a cup of tea for each person.

"I naturally have something to ask of you. You know that today the police station took someone from my royal house. I hope you can take care of this matter for me. Let me know how much money it will take."

True to the name of a terrifying power in this capital, he was upfront and suggested a transaction with money.

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Ministry of Justice officials turned even more somber.

"General Xiahou, it’s not that we don’t want to help, but this matter has become too big. You don’t know, but now the online community is paying attention to this matter, and I don’t know who is behind it all, but they are clamoring for the Xiahou family to give an explanation," one of the officials from the Ministry of Justice felt compelled to remind him.

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Yi’s anger surged, and he placed the teapot heavily back on the table!
