Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Who's practicing Tai Chi? That Lion's Roar Skill is so formidable!"

"That guy is not human, he's a master of the Martial Arts World! He knows how to perform Lingering Steps on the Waves!"

When the thugs were being escorted out by the police, they were hollering incoherently, and upon examination by doctors, it was determined that they had all gone mad.

But why they went insane so suddenly, simultaneously, was unknown to everyone; the only one who knew why was now howling, but Ma Zifeng and his gang did not dare ask the howler. Explore more adventures at empire

"Are you hurt?"

Seeing Hao Jian injured, Xiao Qiang was startled and approached him with panic written all over her face, acting as if it were her own husband who had been injured.

Watching this scene, the orchid-hearted Shu Ya seemed to sense something, and her eyebrows knitted together imperceptibly.

"It's nothing, just a minor shoulder wound," Hao Jian said with a trace of a bitter smile on his face.

"You should get to the hospital to have it checked, just in case something is wrong, that would be bad," Xiao Qiang insisted, still worried, on taking Hao Jian to the hospital.

At this, Shu Ya felt increasingly that something was off. She was Xiao Qiang's boss, after all. An incident had occurred, and instead of showing concern for her first, Xiao Qiang was fussing over Hao Jian. Wasn't that a bit too obvious?

Hao Jian was also caught between laughter and tears; in his so-called concerned chaos, Xiao Qiang, due to excessive worry about him, had completely forgotten about the presence of Shu Ya.

At this point, he could only pray that Shu Ya hadn't noticed anything.

All three of them took an ambulance to the hospital, but during the ride, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Shu Ya sat across from Xiao Qiang, while Hao Jian sat beside Xiao Qiang, Shu Ya occasionally glanced at Xiao Qiang, only to find that Xiao Qiang wasn't looking at her at all. Her gaze was entirely fixed on Hao Jian, as if she were afraid that looking away for just a moment would cause her to lose him.

And truth be told, after what happened today, Xiao Qiang was genuinely worried that if she wasn't careful, Hao Jian might just vanish.

She was concerned, yes, but she did not take into account Shu Ya's feelings—this official girlfriend was not having it. Why was she staring so intently at my fiancé, that's my fiancé!

By now, Shu Ya was almost one hundred percent certain that Xiao Qiang was definitely in love with Hao Jian!

Hao Jian felt like he was on pins and needles and was close to crying, thinking to himself: Lady, can you stop staring at me? Haven't you noticed you've given us away?

Finally, they arrived at the hospital, and after Hao Jian had the bullet removed and was settled in for admission, it was then that Xiao Qiang took Shu Ya aside.

At this moment, Xiao Qiang, having shed her previous deference towards Shu Ya, said coldly, "Leave Hao Jian."

"On what grounds?"

Shu Ya had not expected Xiao Qiang to be so direct, to come right out and ask her to leave Hao Jian.

Immediately, she felt angered. On what grounds should she leave Hao Jian? She was Hao Jian's official girlfriend, after all. If anyone should leave, it should be you, right?

"Because you don't really love Hao Jian at all, I already know your marriage to Hao Jian is nothing but a trade of money and matrimony. You don't love him; you just want to use him to fulfill your selfish plans; that's all."

Xiao Qiang turned back, her eyes icy as she fixed her gaze on Shu Ya.

"He told you about this too?"

Shu Ya felt a bitter taste in her heart. She had made it clear to Hao Jian that this matter should not be revealed, so why did he still let it out? What exactly was Xiao Qiang to him?

"He didn't say that woman was you, I guessed it myself."

Xiao Qiang didn't embellish her story with comments like "Yes, he and I are closer than you can imagine, he tells me everything" because she was also a proud woman. She didn't want to resort to such despicable tactics to win a man's heart.

Upon hearing this, Shu Ya's expression softened significantly, then she declared as if going to war, "I will absolutely not leave him!"

Xiao Qiang's eyebrows immediately furrowed, "You are hurting him!"

"How am I hurting him?"

"Are you playing dumb? You know how much he cares about you. Didn't you see that today, he didn't care about his own safety and rushed into the bank to save you? But you don't love him. Once you've used him up, you'll kick him to the curb. I don't want to see him upset, so I hope you can back off, or at least be clear with him."

Xiao Qiang didn't want to see Hao Jian acting like a fool, giving his all for nothing.

"How do you know I don't love him?" Shu Ya sneered.

"You mean to say..." Xiao Qiang was somewhat stunned.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Initially, I indeed only intended to use him to achieve my goals, as you've said. But after all, the heart is made of flesh. He has done so much for me, I can't possibly fail to see it, and my heart is slowly changing. Although I'm not sure if it's love, what I am certain of is that I do not want to lose him!" Shu Ya said with a smile.

"..."

After giving Shu Ya a deep look and making sure she wasn't lying, Xiao Qiang finally gritted her teeth, "I won't give him up just because you are my boss. We'll see!"

Having said that, she left the hospital, her high heels echoing her pride.

Shu Ya clutched her head, which was throbbing with pain. Hao Jian, oh Hao Jian, are you my savior or my nemesis? In less than half a year since you joined the company, you dug away my most trusted subordinate.

"Why are you alone? Where is Xiao Qiang?" Hao Jian, seeing only Shu Ya returning to the ward, asked curiously.

"Why? Miss her already?"

Shu Ya asked with a sour tone. That bastard, how dare he talk about another woman in front of her!

"What are you talking about? She and I are just ordinary friends," Hao Jian said with a wry smile.

"Is that so? I'm afraid you consider her a friend, but she has other intentions," Shu Ya hinted darkly.

Hao Jian coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about what happened today. I suspect it was Zhang Zicong's doing."

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

At the mention of this matter, Shu Ya stopped joking, her expression turning cold again.

"Because when I came to see you earlier, I ran into him. He seemed to know there would be trouble for you, saying that the company would soon be his. I think this matter is mostly likely related to him," Hao Jian said.

"I had my suspicions too. The look the criminal gave me when he first saw me, it was clear he had seen me before. So, I think they must have targeted me from the start, with the bank robbery being just a smokescreen."

Reminded by Hao Jian, Shu Ya also felt that this was probably the case.

"I think there is more to this incident. The opponent clearly had precise knowledge of your whereabouts, hence the pretense of a robbery. Besides Xiao Qiang, is there anyone else who knew you were going to the bank today?" Hao Jian asked.
