Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Time to Make a Move (1)_1
"What do I need so many people for? To battle them to death? Even if I were to fight them to the death, I wouldn’t need this many. I just need to make a few moves, and they would be dead," Situ Xin glanced at Liu Yuxiang, feeling somewhat insulted. She didn’t need to bring so many people to take care of those few individuals. A light effort on her part was all it took to end their lives.
However, she didn’t plan to take their lives just yet, because if they were to die inexplicably at this time, the Dragon Society would be troubled by countless issues. Moreover, Country Y would likely turn the incident into a big deal, which was not the outcome Situ Xin wanted.
"Then Master, how should I arrange those subordinates of yours?" Liu Yuxiang scratched his head, asking even more puzzled.
"I’ll announce it before we set off tomorrow night. Alright, it’s late. I should go back," Situ Xin said as she stood up from the sofa, holding Baibai.
"Master, you can’t do this to me. If you do, I won’t be able to sleep tonight," Liu Yuxiang pleaded pitifully as he saw Situ Xin getting ready to leave.
"Well, I think even if I told you the plan, you still wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight." While he was speaking, Liu Yuxiang’s phone rang. When he pulled it out, he saw that Elder Xiao Hei was calling.
"Hello, is that Ah Xiang? The young master, he’s awake!" As soon as Liu Yuxiang answered the phone, he heard Elder Xiao Hei’s excited voice from the other end.
"Really? Ah Jie is awake? That’s great. I’m coming right now." Liu Yuxiang’s face lit up with joy when he heard the news. The weight he carried in his heart was finally lifted.
"Go ahead then, I should be leaving too." As for Xia Yujie waking up, it happened around the time Situ Xin had predicted, and she knew that meant Xia Yujie would now be alright. "Oh, and remember to give Xia Yujie my regards, tell him to recover properly in the hospital and not to worry about the Dragon Society for the time being. Tell him I’ll visit him the day after tomorrow night," Situ Xin said to Liu Yuxiang before she left, as she remembered this matter. "Also, give him these elixirs later, and remember, it’s better to take less of the hospital’s medication." Situ Xin thought for a moment, then took out a small porcelain bottle of medicine from her bag, handed it to Liu Yuxiang, and then left with peace of mind.
When Liu Yuxiang arrived at the hospital, Xia Yujie had already been moved from the ICU to a luxurious ward. As soon as he walked into the room, he saw the Dragon Society’s elders clustered around Xia Yujie, each taking turns expressing their concern: "Young master, how are you feeling?" "If there’s anything uncomfortable, just tell Uncle Qian."
Liu Yuxiang, with a happy smile, said, "Elders, if you keep crowding around Ah Jie like this, he’s likely to have issues right away."
Liu Yuxiang’s voice drew everyone’s attention, while Xia Yujie also shifted his gaze to Liu Yuxiang. Of course, his eyes also unwittingly looked behind Liu Yuxiang, showing a flash of disappointment when he didn’t see a certain small figure. How could Xia Yujie’s expression escape the notice of Liu Yuxiang, his close brother?
"Because of timing issues, my master has already gone back. But she asked me to bring a message to you." As soon as Liu Yuxiang had finished, Xia Yujie hurriedly asked, "What message did the lady send with you? Is she angry that I didn’t tell her about this issue?" Xia Yujie was worried that Situ Xin might feel upset over this matter.
"Don’t worry. My master isn’t angry. She wants you to recover well over the next few days and not to worry about the Dragon Society. Also, she’ll come to see you the day after tomorrow, here, this is what she asked me to give you." Liu Yuxiang took out the small porcelain bottle from his bag and handed it over to Xia Yujie. "My master also said that you should minimize taking the hospital’s medication."
Situ Xin had said this because she feared the hospital’s medication might affect the efficacy of her elixirs.
"As long as the lady isn’t angry, that’s good. Sigh, it’s all my fault for being careless this time," Xia Yujie said with a somewhat downcast expression.
"We were all careless this time. We didn’t expect them to hire a sniper for a sneak attack," Liu Yuxiang said, his face also clouding over. "Don’t worry, we’ll make them pay for this."
These days, Situ Xin didn’t need to go to school or treat Old Master Deng. She could use the time to catch up on her sleep. She slept until noon, and only got out of bed when Old Master Situ, worried that she might starve, came upstairs to wake her.
By evening, Situ Xin was fully reinvigorated because she had a mission today. Therefore, she left home earlier than usual.
Situ Xin, as comfortable as the day before, rode Baibai to the Dragon Society. After using Baibai as her mount yesterday, she wasn’t willing to expend her own effort anymore. Fortunately, Baibai was enjoying it too.
"Baibai, let’s go straight in," Situ Xin nonchalantly instructed when they got close to the Dragon Society.
When Situ Xin rode in on Baibai, swaggering into the main building of the Dragon Society, all the guards were stunned. They all stood motionless, eyes wide, watching as Situ Xin passed by on Baibai.
Only after the figures of Situ Xin and Baibai disappeared into the elevator did they regain their senses. "My God, that was the lady just now, right?"
"Yes, that was the lady, but what she was sitting on, it looked like a White Tiger to me. My eyes aren’t playing tricks on me, are they?" another guard said, still dazed.
"You aren’t seeing things; I’m sure that what the lady was sitting on was indeed a White Tiger," another person said blankly, his eyes fixated on something in the distance.
No sooner had the person finished speaking than the others were once again abuzz with shock and chatter.
Unaware of the commotion she had caused, Situ Xin was riding Baibai, striding confidently toward the top-floor office.
"Liu Yuxiang, are you in?" Situ Xin called out from outside the office.
"I’m here, Master. Why are you so early today?" Liu Yuxiang exclaimed in surprise at the early arrival of Situ Xin, and when he saw the mount she was riding, his eyes widened as he stuttered, "Ti-, Tiger."
"It’s a Tiger," Situ Xin replied, accustomed to Liu Yuxiang’s reaction.
At that, Liu Yuxiang exclaimed, "My word, Master, you’ve become even more powerful now, using a tiger as your mount." His shout of amazement earned him an eye roll from Baibai.
