Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Some Things Are Etched in the Bones

Yin Hehe left the house with Sheng Siyuan at nine o’clock in the morning.

She had Cheng Chi prepare the car outside, and as soon as the two came out, they headed towards the broadcast building in the city center.

"Honey, have you memorized everything written on this paper?"

All the way there, Yin Hehe worried that upon arrival at the broadcast building, Siyuan might forget the prepared statement, so she had to ask again.

Fortunately, Siyuan, who had been holding a rabbit the entire way, glanced at the paper and nodded his head.

"That’s great!"

Yin Hehe finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the trio arrived at the city center.

"Cheng Chi, is everything arranged upstairs? Have all the journalists arrived?" Yin Hehe asked worriedly as they got out of the car.

Cheng Chi nodded eagerly: "Everything’s arranged. The Xiahou elder has given his greetings; they wouldn’t dare not to comply."

"Then that’s good."

Yin Hehe quickly led them into the building.

Indeed, she planned to use the television station here to hold a small press conference. Given Sheng Siyuan’s unique situation, a standard press conference, which would attract journalists from all over the world, might frighten him.

Therefore, this morning, she especially called Xiahou Yi to arrange for some controllable individuals and a venue.

Yin Hehe led them to the site of the press conference.

"Mrs. Sheng, you’ve arrived. Everything has been prepared for you."

"Good, thanks so much!" Yin Hehe, seeing the TV station head waiting for them, couldn’t express enough gratitude.

All preparations were complete, and to ensure that Sheng Siyuan appeared on camera before the stock market opened, the special press conference began.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Shengshi Group press conference. I am the director of the Legal Department. Regarding the false rumors that emerged in the market a couple of days ago, our chairman Sheng Siyuan is here to clarify them!"

The press conference began, with Yin Hehe introducing it in her capacity as the director of Shengshi Group’s Legal Department.

She was dealing with the company’s rumor scandal.

Naturally, it was reasonable for the head of the Legal Department to appear at the press conference.

As a result, as soon as this video went up, it immediately gained massive exposure during the morning rush hour as people were just starting work.

"Mrs. Sheng, the video has already hit one million viewers; you can let Mr. Sheng move on to the main topic."

The TV station head saw this and immediately reminded Yin Hehe through the earpiece.

Yin Hehe then looked towards the man beside her, signaling that he could start reciting the prepared statement that he had memorized.

However, there was no response.

He just sat there, looking indifferently at the journalists filming him, his expression hiding defiance and alertness.

Right, he had been frightened by journalists just two days ago.

In an instant, Yin Hehe felt the sweat of urgency rise.

"Honey, don’t be scared!" In her desperate urgency, she had an idea and slowly stretched her hand under the table towards the man.

And indeed, the moment she touched his hand, he immediately flinched as if startled, his tightly clenched fist instantly opening as if electrified.

"Don’t be scared!" Yin Hehe felt the response and immediately grasped his other hand tightly.

She enveloped him, her gentle palm warm like her body heat when she was tightly clinging to him at night.

Sheng Siyuan was momentarily stunned.

After a moment, he looked down at his hand which she was holding and finally, his body’s vigilance gradually relaxed.

"Mr. Sheng, are those online rumors true? Have you been injured recently?"

"No!"

"Then may I ask if you indeed belong to the Xiahou family?"

"Yes!"

I never expected that, after narrowly answering the first question, the second one would introduce another complication.

Yin Hehe was stunned.

The reporters were also momentarily scared speechless by this unexpected answer.

"Mr. Sheng, you..."

"The Xiahou Family is the head of the four great families in the capital, and Shengshi Group has partnered with them to better promote domestic development. Naturally, we are now one family."

The man sat on the stage, casually finishing his answer, and once again the entire reception was left dumbfounded.

Especially Yin Hehe, she simply couldn’t believe what she was seeing, as if even her breathing had stopped.

Those words were not on the script.

"Mrs. Sheng, there’s nothing wrong with what Mr. Sheng said, is there? He spoke so well, could you be overthinking it?"

The person in charge also came over, expressing her perplexity in her shock.

Yin Hehe couldn’t come up with a single word in response.

"Then Mr. Sheng, regarding the incident where you allegedly beat someone to death in a restaurant, is that true?"

"Of course not!" he answered calmly once again.

"After Shengshi Group partnered with the Xiahou Family, strong alliances will naturally lead to some business competition. As long as it does not violate the law, I generally won’t pursue it, but this time it’s gone a bit too far, so I’ve handed it over entirely to the director of our Legal Department."

This time, his answer was much lengthier.

But these words, too, were not on the script.

Yin Hehe watched his composed demeanor, and suddenly, it seemed like she understood.

Right, in his current state, after arriving here, the familiar work mode had triggered his inherent habits and thinking.

That’s why he could easily come up with such a detailed discourse.

The press conference ended perfectly.

"Hehe, is he better now? Is he? Tell me!" Right after it ended, Sheng’s grandfather made a phone call.

He was very excited, his voice even choking up at times.

You couldn’t blame him, a press conference that could deceive thousands of people—don’t mention him, even someone like her who attended the event.

Almost believed that the man was cured.

"Soon!"

In the end, Yin Hehe could only tell the old man with tears and a smile.

Indeed, soon, for today he was able to say so much, even if those were thoughts etched into his bones.

But, it also represented progress.

Therefore, she believed that his recovery was imminent.

"Madam, where do we go next? Back to Willow District or... a trip to Xiahou Royal Mansion?"

After exiting the broadcasting building, as Cheng Chi drove, he suddenly asked.

Yin Hehe had just placed the little bunny in the man’s arms next to her, and upon hearing this, she sensed something was off.

"What’s up with the Royal Mansion?"

"I just heard, that girl named Xiahou Jingxiao was severely beaten by General Xiahou and then committed suicide by jumping into the lake!"

"What?"

Yin Hehe’s face turned pale at once.

Xiahou Jingmu’s sister had died? Was it worth it? If one did something wrong, wasn’t it allowed to give a lesson?

Immediately, Yin Hehe instructed Cheng Chi to drive to Xiahou Royal Mansion.

Meanwhile, at the Royal Mansion, the lady who had hurried over from He’anli and the Xiahou Maoqing couple saw their daughter’s body lying by the lake. The lady fainted on the spot.
