Chapter 636 Wen Li: "Simon is dead"; Hudson: "I'll count to three"
Hearing the sound of glass shattering and falling opposite, Lu Wu immediately went to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain to check the situation.
Unfortunately, everything in the box was blocked by a curtain.
But it was obvious that this was done by a lurking sniper.
Concerned about Lu Xixiao's safety, Lu Wu immediately asked Lu Qi on the other side through the Bluetooth headset, but received no response. He hurried back to Wen Li and informed the waiting Wen Li of the situation: "I can't see the situation on the other side, it must be a sniper."
After hearing that Lu Wu asked Lu Qi to no avail, Wen Li took out his cell phone and called Lu Xixiao.
At this moment, a gunfight was about to break out in the box opposite.
The smell of blood spread from Caesar's body, making the atmosphere even more tense.
Simon pointed his gun at Lu Xixiao. He only brought in a confidant, and he was obviously weaker than Lu Xixiao in this box.
Lu Qi pointed his gun at Simon and shouted, "Put the gun down."
Lu Xixiao's cell phone, which was left on the dining table, rang. He ignored the gun pointed at him and walked to the dining table.
Simon's gun followed him.
It was indeed Wen Li calling. Lu Xixiao answered the call and briefly informed Wen Li of the situation: "I'm fine. The sniper's target doesn't seem to be me. Simon killed Caesar."
Seeing that Lu Xixiao was fine, Wen Li felt relieved. She put down her phone and told Hudson with a gloating look: "Simon is dead."
Hudson's expression suddenly changed: "What did you say?"
His sharp eyes widened as he stared at Wen Li in disbelief, a strong murderous intent blazing in his eyes. He grabbed the pistol in front of him and stood up abruptly. But before he could do anything to Wen Li, his confidant behind him learned of Simon's situation and immediately told Hudson, "Master Simon is fine. He killed Caesar. There are snipers hiding in the dark."
Wen Li smiled mischievously: "It was just a joke." She continued: "But next time it may not be a joke."
Hudson gripped the pistol tightly, his eyes grim.
Amidst the tense situation, no bloody scene occurred. Simon's hand holding the gun suddenly loosened, and the pistol spun around in his hand flexibly and handsomely. He then threw the gun onto the dining table.
Then he put on a smile and said to Lu Xixiao as if nothing had happened, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I'm here to take care of family matters. My father just admires Miss Wen's talent and wants to talk to her about chip research and development. My father is very interested in the chips Miss Wen has developed and he values her talent. He will never hurt Miss Wen or the child."
Simon really wanted to kill Lu Xixiao, not for anything else, but only for Wen Li. But he could only think about it. Even if this was Country M, killing Lu Xixiao would not be easy. After all, he and his father did not really want to die with Lu Xixiao, and killing Lu Xixiao would also cause endless troubles.
Without Lu Xixiao, the Lu family can still dominate the business world, but without him and his father, the DuPont family will no longer exist.
His main task today was to resolve the issues between his uncle and Caesar, and then find a way to prevent Lu Xixiao from being in such a mess. However, Lu Xixiao flatly refused him, so he threatened Wen Li and Lu Jingyuan.
In the end, the threat failed and he was counter-threatened, which angered Lu Xixiao. Simon admitted that he had brought up a lot of personal emotions just now.
Lu Xixiao had a blank expression on his face: "Misunderstanding?"
"It seems the joke was too much." Simon nodded slightly and said nonchalantly, "OK, I apologize for the trouble I have caused Miss Wen. I'm sorry."
He paused for a moment, tightened his chin, and said unwillingly, "I promise this won't happen again. I won't covet what I shouldn't covet."
Being able to bend and stretch wasn't too stupid, but they had already done the stupidest thing, using Wen Li and Lu Jingyuan to threaten him, thinking that if he didn't admit it, he would be fine? This account was not easy to get over.
"One of you and your father will die. Don't make me say it a third time." Lu Xixiao took the gun from Lu Qi's hand.
He doesn't respond to any requests or requests, which is really difficult to deal with.
Simon glanced at the gun in Lu Xixiao's hand, and before he could make a choice, Langdon, who was holding his son's body and immersed in great grief, suddenly grabbed the gun on the ground and wanted to avenge his son.
"careful!"
Simon's confidant behind him was quick-witted and shot Langdon's hand just as he was about to pick up the gun, and then held Langdon down.
Langdon struggled and screamed with all his might, completely undignified. He hysterically shouted at his men, "What are you all standing there for? Shoot him! I want him to pay for Caesar's life!"
Langdon's men hesitated. They didn't have the courage to kill the heir of the DuPont family, not to mention that Langdon was doomed.
Seeing that he couldn't command his men, Langdon suddenly jumped up, pushed away the person who was holding him down, and grabbed the gun again, but after grabbing it, he suddenly calmed down and did not take the next step.
He was soon pinned down again and the gun in his hand was kicked away.
Langdon lay on the ground in despair without struggling.
His son was dead. If Simon died too, the DuPont family would be without an heir. Daria was far from capable of carrying the brunt of the family. He simply didn't want his son to suffer the same oppression he had endured. He simply wanted to prove that he was no less capable than his brother, and that his son was no less capable than his brother's son. He didn't want to destroy the family, but for the sake of the family, he couldn't kill the only remaining heir.
Simon glanced at him coldly: "Take him out."
The confidant looked at him: "What about you?"
Simon: "There's no point in you being here. Go tell the father that the child is still young and don't delay his meal time."
Langdon was pulled up from the ground and forcibly taken away from the box.
He cried out his son's name, filled with regret. He regretted letting his son fight for the inheritance, hated his own ambition, and regretted not killing Simon before Simon killed his son.
Simon turned his gaze from Caesar's body to the few men Langdon had left behind and ordered, "Take Caesar back to the manor."
The helpless people quickly moved Caesar's body out of the box.
When the door of the box closed again, Lu Xixiao's impatient voice rang out: "Have you thought about it?"
Simon looked at Lu Xixiao and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, "Mr. Lu, human life is precious. I took the initiative to show weakness because my father and I still want to live, but if Mr. Lu insists on our death, then we can only die together."
Simon's confidant handed Langdon over to his subordinates as soon as he left the box, and hurried to the opposite side to tell Hudson everything about their situation and convey Simon's intentions.
After hearing this, Hudson stared at Wen Li in silence and fell into deep thought. After a few seconds, he seemed to have made up his mind. He pointed the gun at Wen Li, stepped back, and strode towards Wen Li.
The little guy, who had been shot, was so frightened that his pale face was tense. His little hands unconsciously grasped Wen Li's hands, seeking a sense of security from Wen Li while also giving Wen Li a sense of security. He was extremely scared, but he was strong enough to hold back his tears and bravely comforted Wen Li: "Don't be afraid, sister."
The voice was trembling.
Lu Wu raised his gun and stepped forward to prevent Hudson from getting closer.
The men behind Hudson all drew their guns.
"Woof woof--" There was a strong warning in the Black General's voice. Knowing that what Hudson was holding in his hand had great lethality, the Black General did not dare to act rashly. He could only show his most ferocious side to try to stop and scare away the other party.
Wen Li: "Close your eyes."
"Sister..." The little guy was worried about Wen Li.
Wen Li soothed him, "Close it, it'll be fine."
The little guy closed his eyes obediently.
Wen Li: "Don't open your eyes unless I tell you to."
"Yeah." The little guy closed his eyes tightly.
Hudson came over quickly, pointed the gun at Wen Li's head and threatened: "I'll give you one last minute to think about it. Either say goodbye to Lu Xixiao and follow me obediently, or you will die."
Wen Li was not afraid of his threats at all: "Shoot."
She even dared to challenge him fearlessly: "Do you dare?"
Hudson didn't dare, because Simon was now in Lu Xixiao's hands. Even if he was really cruel enough to destroy this genius that he couldn't get, he couldn't do it at this time. He was just unwilling to give up and wanted to scare Wen Li one last time. If he succeeded, then his goal today would be achieved.
But Wen Li was not intimidated by him at all.
Hudson turned the gun towards Lu Jingyuan without giving up.
He threatened Lu Jingyuan's life: "I'll count to three."
Lu Wu put his index finger on the trigger and warned through gritted teeth: "If anything happens to him, your entire family will pay with their lives."
