Chapter 458: 433 Your Excellency, congratulations on your triumphant return!_3

"Minister Long."

"En?"

"Have the guards draw their guns."

"..." Long Siyan narrowed his eyes, but he didn’t question Qu Yu’s words.

But with Qu Yu’s statement, the air seemed to stretch tight with countless strings pulled to their limit—

Qu Yu slowly lifted his gaze, and just then, his expression froze, and then... Long Siyan saw it too...

Vice President Zhuo Ting noticed that the expressions on Qu Yu’s and Long Siyan’s faces were odd, but before he could turn around to see, he heard Qu Yu and Long Siyan shout in unison,

"Mr. President, congratulations on your triumphant return!"

Bai Cangqiong’s form stiffened, dragging his body bit by bit to turn around, and just as his front turned to the back and the figure of Wen Nian appeared in his peripheral vision—

Wen Nian had already delivered a punch, sending Bai Cangqiong tumbling three meters away!

The dragon-head cane, symbolic of Bai Cangqiong, rolled to the feet of Wen Nian, who bent down to pick it up, raised it abruptly, and on the spot delivered a harsh strike across Vice President Zhuo Ting’s face!

Instantly, blood splattered across his face.

Wen Nian’s face was cold, his bloodthirsty eyes scanning over those present, Secretary General Miu instinctively stepped back two paces, signaling that he was not on the same side as Zhuo Ting and Bai Cangqiong.

"Xiaocao..."

Song Lili was utterly shocked, looking at Tang Xiaocao lying on the ground, bleeding...

Wen Nian discarded the cane, bent down to pick up Xiaocao, while the guards of Vice President Zhuo Ting’s two teams stood there like wooden statues, completely dumbfounded.

"What’s this! Are you even stopping me?!"

"No, no... Mr. Presi—"

"Then get out of my way!"

With a roar, everyone immediately retreated four or five steps, clearing a wide path.

"Mr. President..."

"Qu Yu, take everyone causing trouble here today and put them in detention! Separate cells!"

"Yes!"

"Minister Long, take control of these men under the vice president as well! Lock them up!"

"Yes!"

"Secretary Wang, call a doctor!"

"Yes, Mr. President!"

Wen Nian carried Xiaocao without heading upstairs, but quickly laid him flat on the couch. Wen Nian carefully inspected his head; the forehead bore a quite brutal wound, and it wasn’t difficult to tell how forcefully the person who inflicted it had struck!

"Xiaocao? Xiaocao?"

Wen Nian tried calling his name...

Song Lili stood to the side, deeply engraving the sight of Xiaocao’s injury into her memory.

Zhongli Wuzhi and Lu Xiaoer stood not far from the entrance, and upon seeing the scene inside the President Mansion and the injured Tang Xiaocao...

Both were stunned.

While both were stunned, Lu Yonghuai and Zhongli Yuting almost simultaneously stood in front of them.

"Dad..."

"Dad..."

Lu Xiaoer and Zhongli Yuting murmured simultaneously.

The next second, Lu Yonghuai stepped forward and gently pulled Lu Xiaoer into his embrace, and next to them, Zhongli Yuting raised his hand and harshly slapped Zhongli Wuzhi across the face!

"Dad... was wrong..."

"..."

"Have you gone mad! What do you think this place is! Look at the state you’re in! If you had the guts to run over here, why didn’t you have the guts to die over there!"

"..."

The scenes of parent-child reunion could not be more different—father and daughter versus father and son.

Lu Xiaoer did not expect that Lu Yonghuai, knowing everything, would not blame her, and even less did she expect that his first words upon seeing her again would be... Dad was wrong.

To be honest, it was only after experiencing these events in M country that she truly understood the oft-quoted phrase: Aside from life and death, everything else is trivial.

"I... am also at fault."

Lu Xiaoer murmured softly,

"I shouldn’t have been so willful with you, knowing full well that place was dangerous, I still ran toward it... I just thought, if I died, it would serve you right to regret it for the rest of your life... Dad, I’m sorry for making you worry."

Tears streamed down from Lu Xiaoer’s eyes.

Lu Yonghuai patted her back,

"It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back, from now on, Dad will fully support your medical studies!"

Lu Xiaoer sobbed silently, just holding onto her father tightly.

"So, for a woman, you’re willing to throw away your life, Zhongli Wuzhi? It seems that I’ve been too indulgent with you!"

"Indulgent? You make it sound so nice, as if you’ve ever bothered with me before."

Zhongli Wuzhi, having been slapped and then comparing his relationship to the affectionate father-daughter duo next to him, suddenly felt even more rebellious!

"Fine, from today onwards, I’m not providing you any more funds! Fend for yourself!"

Saying this, Zhongli Yuting turned and stormed off.

Little did he know—

From afar, the icy voice of Wen Nian floated over,

"Mr. Zhongli, didn’t you understand my words?"
