Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Wife, You Are So Sweet Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Wife, You Are So Sweet Yin Hehe didn’t stop them, but after watching them leave, she returned to the sickroom, picked up her phone, and dialed a number.

“Hello? Xiaohe?”

Her elder brother, Yin Beixiao’s rich baritone, quickly came through the phone.

Yin Hehe hummed in acknowledgment and asked, “Big Brother, who did Sheng Siyuan give a quarter of the company to?”

“Ah?” Yin Beixiao was immediately choked up on the other end of the line.

“How do you know about that? Did Caicai spill the beans when they visited you? Those two women!”

Yin Beixiao immediately guessed it was Caicai and Meishan Qiandai, complaining over the phone.

Yin Hehe asked again with composure, “Brother, who exactly is it?”

Yin Beixiao: “…”

He sighed and finally said, “The Xiahou Family. I heard it from Chen Xiaosen. Remember how Shengshi’s construction company was sabotaged? After that, Sheng Siyuan made a trip to Chongzhou to find Xiahou Yi.”

“Xiahou Yi?” Yin Hehe’s pupils abruptly quivered.

“When did this happen? He never mentioned it to me.”

“It was when you were in Y City, Hehe. Don’t blame him. If it wasn’t for Jian Zhongzhou pressing Shengshi at every turn, he wouldn’t have taken this step. Xiahou Yi could help Shengshi resolve this crisis. The quarter he gave away, with Sheng Siyuan’s ability, can quickly be earned back.”

Yin Beixiao, sensing that his sister’s emotions were amiss, quickly put in a few good words for Sheng Siyuan.

But what Yin Hehe was really worried about was not that at all.

Her agitation stemmed from shock that this man would dare to make a deal with the Xiahou Family. Who was Xiahou Yi? The head of the four great families in the imperial city, the current number one person in the imperial city!

Such a person was even more terrifying than any official.

Wasn’t this akin to seeking a tiger’s skin?

Yin Hehe hung up the phone.

She didn’t rest well that afternoon, and as soon as Sheng Siyuan came over, she immediately got up from the sickbed.

“Didn’t you sleep?” Sheng Siyuan, who was quietly entering, stopped abruptly in surprise upon seeing her rise.

Yin Hehe got down from the sickbed.

“I want to ask you something, who did you end up finding? Who drove away Jian Zhongzhou?”

She approached him and asked directly.

Sheng Siyuan’s expression changed.

Avoiding her gaze, he set down the dessert in his hand and went to the small table.

“Would you like some juice? I just squeezed it fresh at the fruit store,” he offered gently.

He took it out while asking tenderly.

Yin Hehe frowned, initially wanting to explode in anger, but upon turning and seeing the man’s cautious demeanor, she took a deep breath and joined him.

“Husband, we can’t just trade with the Xiahou Family. Those people are terrifying!”

“Don’t worry.” He finally raised his head, formally addressing the issue.

“I’m in control. Now, giving him a quarter is like raising a beast for myself. Such a beast can bring greater benefits for me in the future.”

“Aren’t you afraid it’ll bite you?”

Yin Hehe, hearing this, grew even more upset, raising her voice considerably.

However, this man’s expression remained calm.

“No, I’ve found his Achilles’ heel. If he dares to bite, I’ll make sure he has nowhere to be buried,” he said coolly.

As if to say, even such a character, in his hands, was still just a plaything.

Yin Hehe paused.

So audacious?

She found it hard to believe, yet on second thought, the means of this man were indeed beyond her comparison, and she didn’t press any further.

“Fine then, if you’re so confident, I won’t meddle. Just be careful on your own,” she finally said.

“Mm,” the man immediately smiled.

As he handed her the fresh juice, Yin Hehe had barely taken a sip when the man moved closer and directly lowered his head to kiss her lips.

“Mmm…”

Yin Hehe’s eyes widened in shock.

The man laughed like a fox.

After a few minutes of a lingering, heartfelt kiss, he finally let go of her, seemingly reluctant to part.

“Wife, you’re so sweet.”

“Uh…”

Yin Hehe’s face turned even redder.

She lowered her head, took the fruit juice in her hand, and sat down at the small table. Sheng Siyuan saw this and sat down opposite her, taking out the pastries one by one and placing them in front of her.

“I see you’re looking a lot better today. Are you using a new medicine?”

“Yes!” Yin Hehe nodded after taking a sip of juice.

“This medicine is amazing. I didn’t even feel pain during the treatment today, and Dr. Zhao said it’s miraculous!”

“Really?” Sheng Siyuan had just opened a box of shrimp and was about to start peeling them for the woman.

Upon hearing this, he stopped, surprised.

“What kind of medicine is it? How can it be so powerful?”

“I don’t know; it’s just something that the research institute has developed for me recently. It’s over there; take a look.”

Yin Hehe pointed at the medicine bag still sitting on the bedside table.

Sheng Siyuan got up.

He walked over, picked up the medicine bag, and looked it over carefully. They were all the names of medications, which he did not understand, but he noticed a piece of paper on the bedside table.

“Asset liquidation? Did you write this?”

He picked it up.

Turning to glance back, Yin Hehe nodded nonchalantly, “Mhm, Caicai said today that Landun is in disarray, preparing to liquidate and disband, so I’m thinking of taking it over.”

“You want to take it over?”

Indeed, upon hearing this, the man’s handsome face fell, and he became visibly displeased as he sat back down.

“Why take it over? There’s such a big company at home, waiting for you to recover. You’ll have plenty to do; why would you even think about that?”

He didn’t hide his annoyance, complaining as he sat across from her.

Yin Hehe: “…”

Home?

When she heard these two words, before any other emotions could surface, her heart warmed.

So when she spoke, her voice was much gentler, “It’s not a conflict. If I take it over, I won’t need to be there every day. Just like the branch offices you’ve opened, I’ll find someone to manage it.”

“…”

The man was suddenly at a loss for words.

However, he quickly realized the subtext of her words—she was agreeing to go to the company and do her duty as the CEO’s wife.

A pleasing curve finally rose on the man’s lips once more.

“Then how much money will you need?”

He glanced at the unfinished words on the paper and asked generously.

Yin Hehe cleared her throat twice.

“I haven’t figured it out yet, but I guess it will be tens of millions?”

“Such a large law firm, just tens of millions? Mrs. Sheng, don’t you have any idea about the assets of Landun at all?”

Sheng Siyuan asked her in return.

Yin Hehe was dumbfounded.

Is tens of millions not enough?

“Based on my estimate, to take over this firm, it would certainly cost at least a hundred million. Mrs. Sheng, why don’t I invest as well? You probably don’t have the money right now, right? You still owe me 45 million.”

Sheng Siyuan looked at her crestfallen expression and suddenly remembered the debt of a hundred million from before, teasingly mentioned it.

A hundred million, which was halved by fifty million last time for the lawsuit.

Adding the five million for sending Peng Geng to jail, after various deductions, indeed, it was 45 million left to repay.

But after he had finished speaking, he saw the woman looking at him with a more puzzled expression while holding her cup of fruit tea.

“Do I still owe you that much money?”

“…”
