Chapter 351: Bizarre

Chapter 351: Chapter 351: Bizarre

Yin Hehe went outside the intensive care unit to take another glance at Xiahou Yi. Seeing him lying there motionless, she couldn’t help but sigh.

"So, what are your plans now, Junior General?"

She turned to look at the young general standing beside her, who was also looking into the room with a face full of sorrow.

"I don’t know. Grandfather’s accident was so sudden; he didn’t hand over many things to me. I’m at a loss about what to do,"

he said, looking utterly helpless.

Seeing this, Yin Hehe advised, "You have to shoulder it now. You’re the only one who can keep this family going. You must pull yourself together."

"I..." He could only utter one word before his eyes reddened again.

But in the end, he nodded.

Since things had come to this point and there was no use for her to stay, Yin Hehe prepared to leave, noticing it was already getting late.

"Are you still going to leave so late? Why not stay here tonight and go back in the morning?"

Xiahou Jingmu immediately tried to detain her when he saw she was about to leave.

The old butler, hearing this, also came over, wiping tears from his eyes to persuade, "Yes, Xiaoyin, please stay the night here. The old general actually left some things for you. Come back with me to the mansion, and I’ll hand them over to you."

He suddenly made such an unexpected statement.

Yin Hehe was surprised. She turned her head to glance at Xiahou Jingmu beside her and saw he looked just as astonished. She nodded her head in agreement.

Xiahou Yi had actually left things for them?

This was truly strange!

What could he have left them? And why would he suddenly leave things behind? Could it be that he had been prepared?

Yin Hehe followed the old butler back to the mansion.

In the dead of night, a black jeep drove down the deserted street. The cold wind whistled, leaving no trace of any passersby as they headed toward the mansion, the whole street bathed in a silent chill.

"Uncle Zhong, why didn’t you let Jingmu come with me just now?"

Perhaps it was too quiet, but Yin Hehe started making conversation.

Hearing this, the old butler sitting beside her turned his head to look at her.

"Because these things, the old general instructed that they be given directly to you and must not be shown to anyone else,"

"Including Jingmu?" Yin Hehe asked, feeling even more puzzled.

After all, in her memory, she remembered Xiahou Jingmu being quite favored by Xiahou Yi. Many of Xiahou family’s affairs were handled by Xiahou Jingmu.

So why did it seem like he was being guarded against now?

Yin Hehe arrived at the mansion filled with doubts.

Yet, in just under half a month, the mansion seemed as desolate as the streets outside. Until they reached the main hall, she barely saw a few servants.

"Shall I go make you a pot of tea first?"

The old butler seemed to notice the desolation around them and, with the weather being cold, suggested making some tea for Yin Hehe upon reaching the main hall.

Yin Hehe quickly shook her head, "No need, it’s already so late. Let’s see what it is you have to give me so you can get some rest soon."

"...Alright," the old butler finally went inside.

Yin Hehe stood outside waiting with Cheng Chi.

"Ma’am, don’t you think there’s something off about this place?"

Even the bodyguard felt the need to speak up to Yin Hehe after noticing the absence of people around them.

Yin Hehe looked at him, "What do you think is off? Tell me!"

"Haven’t you noticed that the Guard Squad is nowhere to be seen?"

Cheng Chi pointed out the issue succinctly.

Yin Hehe was stunned.

She hadn’t even considered this, merely feeling that the place was eerily quiet.

It turned out, the Guard Squad was gone.

"Yeah, I didn’t even realize until you mentioned it. Aren’t all those guards Xiahou Yi’s trusted aides? Where have they gone? It’s not like they could be taken back by the military just because Xiahou Yi is in the hospital?"

She said, frowning.

Cheng Chi shook his head, "That’s very unlikely. Personal guards like these are privately maintained, like our Blood Eagle. Regular military doesn’t have the authority to take them over."

"..."

That was indeed very strange.

Yin Hehe’s brows knitted even tighter, and it was at this moment that the old butler came out with some items.

"Look, this is it." He handed it to Yin Hehe.

Yin Hehe immediately took it and was astonished to find that it was a real estate deed, along with a document stamped with the seal of the supreme executive unit of the imperial capital. It clearly stated that Shengshi Group was a private corporation and that the government would never interfere in its management or have the right to merge with it!

...

Yin Hehe was taken aback.

It turned out, the old man had left such important items for her and her husband. The real estate deed was also for Willow District, Sheng Siyuan’s favorite.

"Uncle Zhong, these... when did he prepare all this?"

Her voice was a little choked up with emotion as she excitedly asked, holding the documents.

The old butler sighed, "He prepared them after you left. As for this document, it was obtained with the help of Junior Marshal Deng after the day you made that phone call."

"Junior Marshal Deng?" Yin Hehe was surprised to hear about this person.

"Are you talking about the current second-in-command of the military?"

"Yes, he was the old general’s student. That day, after the old general had a big quarrel with Jingmu, he called the Junior Marshal over."

The old butler, in a moment of indiscretion, revealed the entire matter. By the time he wanted to retract his words, Yin Hehe was already paying close attention.

"Xiahou Jingmu actually had a quarrel with him? What were they arguing about?"

The intelligent Yin Hehe immediately grabbed onto this unexpected piece of news and asked in shock.

The old butler: "..."

After a long pause, he finally opened his mouth with resignation, "This matter... the old general actually wanted me not to tell you, but since you’ve asked today, I’ll tell you. It was after your phone call that day that the old general lost his temper because he was completely unaware of the actions Jingmu was planning to take!"

"What?"

Yin Hehe was taken aback once more.

"You mean... all that was Xiahou Jingmu’s own doing? How dare he make such decisions? Does he think the old general doesn’t exist?"

Wait!

Suddenly, just after she spoke, she sensed something. Her face changed dramatically, and a terrifying thought popped into her mind.

And just as coincidentally, at the deathly quiet main entrance, the sound of someone’s footsteps could be heard.

"Auntie, have you gotten your things? I’ve come to send you off!"

Xiahou Jingmu’s voice emerged from outside, making everyone inside break out in a cold sweat.

The old butler: "Remember what I’ve told you, act as if you’ve heard nothing, understood?"

The old butler immediately whispered a reminder.

Yin Hehe didn’t speak, but as she turned to look towards the main entrance, her whole demeanor had entered a state of alert.

Meanwhile, Cheng Chi had already positioned himself in front of her.
