Yuan Ping, who had been with He Ting for more than a decade, was standing at the door. When he saw He Ting carrying out a woman who looked exactly like that 'ex - wife', he was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly reacted and took the lead to walk in front to ensure He Ting's safety.
When they reached downstairs, Yuan Ping opened the car door for He Ting.
All the way, He Ting let An Ke rest her head on his thigh while he lowered his head, gazing at her face.
She frowned tightly. She didn't seem to be asleep but rather trapped in a nightmare from which she couldn't wake up.
"Contact Doctor Chen," He Ting said in a low voice.
"Yes," Yuan Ping replied. After hesitating for a while, he continued, "Brother, this woman..." He wanted to say that Lu Shouxian had sent an unknown woman who looked exactly like He Ting's ex - wife. It was clearly out of malicious intent.
"She's An Ke!"
"What?" Yuan Ping was so shocked that he almost crashed the car into a tree. Did this woman have nine lives like a cat? How could she survive such a huge explosion back then?
"Brother, are you sure?"
"If I can't even recognize my own wife, how can I be a good husband?" After a pause, He Ting suddenly said, "Send back Lu Shouxian's scumbag son."
Yuan Ping let out a soft grunt and didn't say anything else, but his mind was in turmoil.
Back then, An Ke had almost taken half of He Ting's life. Now that He Ting had finally managed to pull through, she showed up again. It seemed like he was going to turn from a wise leader into a muddle - headed one.
Look, he even let go of Lu's bastard son. What else couldn't he do in the future? That scumbag had even touched He Ting's territory!
Just as Yuan Ping was feeling indignant, he heard the man in the back add another sentence, "Send a message to Zixuan and tell her to handle it neatly. Make sure there are no traces left."
Yuan Ping was shocked.
Who was Zixuan? She was the number one female assassin in Country N!
Back then, Lu Shouxian's son had snatched her younger sister. She had always wanted to take revenge but just couldn't find an opportunity. If that scumbag fell into Zixuan's hands, Yuan Ping was sure that Zixuan would make him die in a very painful way.
Looking at the back through the rear - view mirror, He Ting's eyes were covered with a layer of icy coldness. Yuan Ping suddenly understood that He Ting had never intended to let go of the Lu family's kid from the very beginning. He just gave him a more terrifying way to die.
As for the reason... wasn't it the femme fatale in his arms? Lu Shouxian had fed An Ke so many sleeping pills that she had lost her senses. How could He Ting let it go easily?
The car returned to the He Mansion. Under everyone's gaze, He Ting carried An Ke into the master bedroom. Since An Ke's 'death' three years ago, no other woman had ever entered this room except the cleaning maids.
Doctor Chen had been waiting there for a long time. As soon as An Ke was placed on the bed by He Ting, he instructed the medical team to conduct a comprehensive examination on her.
He Ting walked out of the bedroom.
Because An Ke didn't like people smoking, he had quit smoking. He hadn't taken a puff in the past three years. But now, the urge to smoke was becoming more and more urgent. He wanted to use nicotine to numb the overwhelming joy that had gotten out of control after seeing An Ke.
He subconsciously reached for his trouser pocket, but a white cigarette was already held out in front of him. It was from Yuan Ping and already lit.
An hour later, Doctor Chen walked out of the bedroom and brought He Ting a shocking piece of news.
"A bullet fragment was found in Madam's posterior cranial fossa. It's pressing on the nerve and causing amnesia. So, she may have a headache every time she tries to recall the past. This coma was also caused by this fragment. Mr. He, what's your opinion?"
He Ting pursed his thin lips. He naturally knew that the fragment was left from the explosion three years ago.
If they removed it and An Ke regained her memory and recalled those miserable years three years ago, would she still stay by his side?
But if they didn't remove it...
"What will happen if we don't remove it?" He Ting asked.
"The fragment has already pressed on the nerve to its limit. If it continues to press, Madam may suffer from nerve rupture and may even become a vegetable," Doctor Chen said.
He Ting was silent for a long time and kept smoking fiercely. The pungent smell of tobacco rushed into his throat, making him cough twice.
Yuan Ping glanced at He Ting and said softly, "Brother... maybe..."
Bang!
Before Yuan Ping could finish his words, a violent explosion suddenly sounded outside the mansion. Immediately afterwards, the glass windows shattered, and countless black - clothed men jumped into the mansion through the broken windows.
The change happened in an instant, but He Ting's first reaction was to turn around and run upstairs.
When the black - clothed men swarmed in, he just reached the second floor. In his sight, he saw the bedroom door wide open. A black - clothed man was carrying An Ke out horizontally.
"Put her down!" He Ting said coldly, his eyes blood - red.
He didn't care about the killers who had broken in. The only thing in his eyes was An Ke.
Bo Jinnian gave a soft laugh. "We haven't seen each other for a few years, and you're still the same. He Ting, if your possessiveness and competitiveness weren't so strong, maybe you could have been with An Ke for a few more years."
He Ting squinted his eyes and suddenly remembered the man in front of him. He was An Ke's partner. Three years ago, it was him who had led people to snatch her away.
Damn it. Why was this man still alive? It was really infuriating that the bad guys didn't die, while the innocent one had lost her memory.
"You'd better say something soft to me now. Maybe I'll leave you a whole corpse later," He Ting's tone was filled with a strong sense of killing. This wasn't a warning but a notice!
"Being too confident is not good. Now, there's a huge gap in our strength. You can't fight against so many of us. Even if we just press on you, we can crush you to death!" After Bo Jinnian finished speaking, he glanced at An Ke in his arms and added, "I don't want to cause trouble today. Hand over that disc, and I'll take Ke'er and the materials and leave. You'll still be Mr. He, and no one will know about tonight's incident."
Ke'er... Oh, he was so affectionate. Lu Shouxian had fed An Ke sleeping pills, which had already made He Ting deeply resentful. Not to mention Bo Jinnian's ambiguous address of 'Ke'er'!
"It seems that some people won't give up until they see the Yellow River!" He Ting let out a soft laugh, his eyes showing a sharp edge. "Yuan Ping, attack!"
As soon as He Ting's voice fell, countless silver needles shot from Yuan Ping's hand towards Bo Jinnian. Bo Jinnian gave a soft laugh as if he had already known this move. He lifted his right leg and gently swept it, and all the flying silver needles fell to the ground.
Three years ago, he had suffered a loss here. The silver needles in Yuan Ping's hand were coated with anesthetic. Once hit, one couldn't move. That was why He Ting had taken the opportunity back then. He wouldn't make the same mistake twice.
"He Ting, can't you come up with something new..."
Before he could finish the word 'trick', Bo Jinnian suddenly saw He Ting's figure was already in front of him. He slapped his palm fiercely towards Bo Jinnian's head. But at the last moment, He Ting just hooked his right hand into a claw shape, firmly grabbed Bo Jinnian's forehead, and pushed him out forcefully.
