Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Storm

"Right, Major, there’s one more thing, your old man has already had surgery, and it was very successful!"

Suddenly, these few men were looking at Xiahou Jingmu and told him such news.

Xiahou Jingmu immediately turned his head on the hospital bed to look at them.

"What did you say? He had surgery too?"

"Yes, he should wake up within these two days. If he wakes up, then what you’re currently planning..."

The man hesitated to continue!

Xiahou Jingmu’s several fingers immediately clenched tightly into his palm.

"Sheng Siyuan, so this was your purpose!" He ground out each word through his teeth bit by bit.

"But, no need to worry, even if the old man wakes up, it’s of no use now. It’s no longer his world. Whether he wakes up or not doesn’t matter."

Unexpectedly, he followed up with this statement.

The people beside him heard this and glanced at each other with looks of agreement in their eyes.

Because, indeed, in the military, this young General Xiahou had more clout. Except for that Deng surname, basically everyone else was listening to him.

They all showed a knowing smile.

In the afternoon, just when Xiahou Jingmu was finally being transferred to a regular ward, he was wheeled out, passing by Xiahou Yi’s intensive care unit, he saw her—Yin Hehe standing guard outside.

"Stop a moment," he waved his hand, and the doctors stopped him.

Yin Hehe sat on that chair, lifting her head to give him a cold stare.

Xiahou Jingmu, "He went to the mental hospital, I thought you would be in disarray. Unexpectedly, you’re still sitting here steadily guarding this old man. How come? Did he teach you this as well?"

He asked without a hint of sarcasm.

Yin Hehe stared at him for a long while before she said expressionlessly, "It seems you have a large life, surviving even this didn’t get you stabbed to death!"

"..."

Her words immediately caused his eyes to narrow and a hint of fierce aura to emerge.

"Yin Hehe, if you’re willing to pledge allegiance, I can still give you another chance now; otherwise, when I really start to deal with the Sheng Family, you won’t have a chance anymore!"

He warned her coldly for the last time.

Deal with the Sheng Family?

Yin Hehe heard this, and although she appeared calm on the surface, her fingers were slowly curling up within her heart.

This scum, he indeed still intended to go against Shengshi.

"Xiahou Jingmu, let me also give you a piece of advice. You’d better not harbor this thought. Otherwise, I’ll make sure that even if you get this piece of fat meat, you won’t be able to swallow it, and you’ll choke to death on it!"

Her pair of frosty amber pupils bore into him, their sharpness like that of a knife blade, striking viciously across the man’s face, and even Xiahou Jingmu, who had survived bullet storms, could not easily smile this time.

Because he knew this woman was no ordinary woman.

Therefore, the best approach was not to anger her, but to subdue her.

"What do you think is the best way to subdue a woman?"

The moment he returned to the ward, he began to ask this question.

The few men who followed were all taken aback.

"I think it’s to grind down her pride," one said.

"That’s not necessarily true. Some women are too fierce. If you grind down her pride, she might just go down with you in a mutually assured destruction."

"..."

Xiahou Jingmu didn’t like to hear this; he immediately ordered those few men out and called in his assistant.

"Find an opportunity to take the woman outside away." He chose the simplest and most brutal method.

The assistant glanced at him and left immediately.

That very night, when Yin Hehe was guarding outside Xiahou Yi’s intensive care unit and felt a wave of weariness, thinking of going back to her room to rest, she opened the door and saw a shadow inside.

"Who are you?" She immediately backed out, on alert.

However, as she retreated, someone was already blocking her from behind. She felt the person’s presence and was so frightened that she immediately turned around.

"You..."

"Miss Yin, if you don’t want to suffer, just come with us obediently."

Unexpectedly, these two were quite "polite."

In the darkness, Yin Hehe’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you Xiahou Jingmu’s men? What, after he failed to intimidate in broad daylight, he wants to take direct action now? Is this petty behavior typical of him?"

She was indeed sharp as a tack, instantly thinking of this possibility.

Once their identities were exposed, the two men no longer hesitated and went straight for her.

"Click!"

But just at that moment, a bullet suddenly flew in from outside.

In an instant, the arm of the man in black who was reaching out to grab Yin Hehe was shot right through.

"Ahh—" A piercing scream echoed through the darkness, making one’s scalp tingle with horror.

Yin Hehe was stunned as well.

It was then, as the other black-clad person saw the dire situation and tried to escape, that another bullet shot forth.

"Pfft!"

This time was even more terrifying.

A grotesque bloom of blood burst from his forehead in the darkness, and he fell down stiffly.

Then there was no more movement.

Too horrifying!

Yin Hehe was completely scared senseless, clinging to the wall, trembling, not even noticing the man whose arm had been shot through as he crawled away from her step by step.

She was blind to it all.

Such precise marksmanship could only belong to a top-tier assassin, and undoubtedly a sniper.

Xiahou Jingmu, who had been waiting for news, jumped up from the bed in shock upon hearing this.

"Ah!" A shriek of intense post-surgery pain escaped him almost at once.

"Major, are you alright?"

The person who was watching over him in the ward rushed over immediately.

It took several minutes for Xiahou Jingmu to finally regain enough strength to speak.

"A sniper? Where did a sniper come from? Who would dare to bring a sniper here?"

He clutched at his wound, roaring angrily.

The onlookers were all too scared to respond.

Such an incident was rarely seen, especially under the watchful eyes of these military men, and at the feet of the emperor no less.

But if someone was especially mad!

Or rather, if this person’s powers actually surpassed his, that would be a different matter.

And right now, his hysterical rage was nothing more than a refusal to accept this reality.

Crucially, at this time, someone else came in.

"Major, there’s news from Shengshi Group... They replied that a merger is completely out of the question."

"What do you mean?" As these words came out, Xiahou Jingmu’s furiously red eyes immediately fixed on him.

"He’s privately-owned, I’m official, I want to acquire him, on what grounds does he have the right to refuse or resist?" he said fiercely.

However, the person still wore a dejected expression.

"If it were a national enterprise, of course, he couldn’t resist, but according to today’s investigation, Shengshi Group has long been acquired by a foreign company, and it’s the world’s largest financial firm."

"..."

Xiahou Jingmu was completely dumbfounded...
