Chapter 358: Chapter 358: It Seems Like He’s Back

Yin Hehe ultimately managed to save Sheng Siyuan and prevented the police from taking him away.

Because, mental illness sometimes truly is a protective talisman for a person who has committed an assault. As long as she firmly clung to this point, the police had no way of taking him away.

Yin Hehe let out a sigh of relief. She walked into the conference room and finally saw the man who had been detained there for nearly an hour.

"Husband, are you alright? Don’t be afraid. I will definitely protect you," she said.

Seeing him sitting there all alone, his hands still covered in blood, her heart overflowed with guilt and pain.

This whole incident had been triggered by her. If Siyuan hadn’t provoked Xiahou Jingmu, none of this would have happened. She deeply regretted being involved even though she had already been out of the picture. Why had she intervened?

But fortunately, seeing her cry, the man unexpectedly remained calm, a departure from his usual self, and reached out to embrace her, pulling her into his arms.

"It’s okay," he said indifferently.

"Weren’t you going to save that old man? You can go now. Xiahou Jingmu is gone, and nobody can stop the surgery anymore."

"..."

Yin Hehe was stunned.

He actually remembered that issue. So, had he done all that just to facilitate what Yin Hehe wanted to accomplish?

Yin Hehe cried even harder.

But before long, she composed herself and stood up, then turned to leave and went to find the dean.

The dean was indeed shocked when he heard that she was still insisting on the surgery!

"You two are really... I don’t know what to say," he said, his eyes reddening as he spoke. Soon after, he went to arrange the surgery.

Time ticked away second by second.

Yin Hehe had intended to take Sheng Siyuan back with her, but for some reason, the man insisted on returning to the ward. He was not willing to leave.

Until both surgeries in the hospital had concluded.

"Miss Yin, the old general’s surgery was very successful. The dean said he should wake up in three days," someone reported.

"Really?"

Hearing this good news, tears of excitement welled up in Yin Hehe’s eyes.

No sooner had she received this news than another surgeon emerged from the operating room.

"Doctor, how is my son? Was the surgery successful?" Xiahou Jingmu’s mother immediately stood up to ask when she saw the doctor.

By her side was Xiahou Maoqing.

Along with them were several military personnel, their uniforms indicating high ranks.

The doctor removed his mask, "The surgery was relatively successful. However, the sharp instrument punctured his lung. If he wakes up tomorrow, he should be fine."

"I’m going to kill him! I’m going to kill him!"

Upon uttering these words, Xiahou Maoqing began shouting like a madman in the corridor.

The Madam’s body swayed, and she fainted.

The few military personnel quickly stabilized them.

About ten minutes later, Yin Hehe returned to the ward and discovered two people in white coats standing guard outside the open door of the ward.

What had happened?

Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly made her way over and rushed to the doorway of the ward.

"What are you doing? Let him go!"

To her horror, inside there were several doctors trying to pull the man out of the hospital bed.

Yin Hehe was on the verge of madness.

"You must be Miss Yin, right? We are from the psychiatric hospital. We received a call from the police about a mental patient here who assaulted someone, and we specifically came to take him with us," explained one of the doctors who seemed to be the leader of the group, as he finally turned to look at her when she protested at the door.

Yin Hehe instantly lost all color from her face.

A mental hospital?

No, how could he be taken away by a mental hospital? He’s not a mental patient, he’s just intellectually impaired right now.

Yin Hehe, completely unprepared for such an unforeseen situation, lost all composure.

"You lay a finger on him and see what happens! Who told you he’s a mental patient? What evidence do you have to claim he’s a mental patient?"

She vehemently denied it, just to keep those people from taking the man away.

But as soon as her words fell, the doctor stared at her and scoffed coldly, "Wasn’t it you who told the police that he was a mental patient? Isn’t that why they didn’t take him away? So, is he a mental patient or not? If not, then I’ll call the police now!"

"..."

Yin Hehe could no longer utter a word.

There was only a face as pale as a corpse left.

Yes, if she didn’t admit in front of these people that the man was a mental patient, then he would definitely be taken away by the police.

But if she admitted it, then he would have to go to a mental hospital!

What should she do?

What should she do now?

She felt like she was going crazy, watching as these doctors had already escorted the man out of the ward, with her tears streaming down her face; her fingers gripping his arm tightly.

"Don’t, you can’t take him away! You’re not allowed to take him!"

She had never felt so helpless and out of control.

The doctors saw this and were about to forcefully push her away, but at that moment, the oppressed man grasped her wrist in return.

"Don’t worry, I won’t be in trouble,"

he said calmly, trying to reassure her.

Yin Hehe was stunned, and for a moment, her tear-blurred eyes looked fixedly at this overly calm man, somehow unable to react.

Why was he behaving like this?

Shouldn’t he be afraid? Shouldn’t he be making a fuss? If it were the old him in this situation, he would have had an episode long ago.

She was baffled.

"Wait for me at home, don’t run around everywhere, and also, take good care of this old man. You want him to wake up, right? Then take good care of him,"

he said, noticing her dazed expression, and then reached out to gently wipe the tear stains off her cheeks.

Yin Hehe: "..."

By the time the doctors led him far away, she was still standing there, staring blankly at his retreating figure.

The feeling was very familiar.

It was as if the person from the past had returned...

——

The next day, Xiahou Jingmu indeed woke up successfully.

"Major, you’re finally awake. The person who hurt you, as per your instructions, has been sent to the mental hospital,"

said several military men who had been guarding the hospital as they immediately approached him.

Yes, the person who had arranged for Sheng Siyuan to be sent to the mental hospital was none other than Xiahou Jingmu.

After being taken to the emergency room that day, he had regained consciousness once, and then he had left these instructions.

Hearing this, Xiahou Jingmu, who had just awoken, was very satisfied.

"Then what are we waiting for? Move against the Shengshi Group now. Since he wants to play with me, let’s give him a good game!"

he said, a vicious smile appearing on his pale lips.

The men immediately went to carry out the task.

Heh
