Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"Uncle Yu, what brings you in?"

Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice, but his eyes were fixed on the pistol in Uncle Yu's hand.

Given Xiao Zhan's familiarity with guns, he naturally knew that the pistol in Yu Bo's hand was already off the safety and loaded, ready to fire at any moment.

Uncle Yu: "Xiao Zhan, I heard what you and the old commander just said. I am willing to take full responsibility."

Xiao Huai'an looked at Uncle Yu and shouted sternly, "Old Yu, I didn't let you in. Get out now, immediately."

"brush."

Yu Bo raised his hand and pointed the pistol at his head, saying in a very firm tone, "Old Chief, just listen to Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan is right. Their target is you. I will take full responsibility so you can get away safely. The Xiao family cannot do without you. Moreover, the Fuxi quantum communication chip has reached the final critical moment. You must be in charge to ensure that Fuxi passes the acceptance test smoothly. This is the culmination of our years of hard work."

Xiao Huai'an rolled his eyes and said, "That won't do either. I won't let you take the responsibility alone. No one can change my mind. There's no room for discussion. If anyone has to take responsibility, it has to be me."

Yu Bo's hand holding the gun trembled, and his eyes were filled with tears as he said, "Old Commander, with your kindness to your brother, I have no regrets even if I die. It proves that I have never followed the wrong person in my life. You are my good brother, good commander, and good comrade-in-arms. If you do not grant my request, I will commit suicide in front of you right now."

As Yu Bo spoke, he tightened his finger and was about to pull the trigger.

"Uncle Yu, please wait."

Xiao Zhan roared.

Upon hearing this thunderous shout, Uncle Yu was momentarily stunned, and Xiao Zhan seized the opportunity to flick the cigarette butt from his hand...

"Whoosh!"

The cigarette butt, still glowing, struck Uncle Yu's wrist like a meteor, the force so great that it made his wrist go numb. Combined with the intense heat of the cigarette butt, Uncle Yu's wrist jerked violently, and he couldn't hold the pistol at all.

"Smack."

The pistol fell to the ground.

Xiao Zhan rushed forward and picked up the pistol.

"Click, click."

In no time at all, the pistol was disassembled into a pile of scrap metal.

Uncle Yu, clutching his swollen wrist, said, "Xiao Zhan, don't listen to the old commander. Listen to me. I'll take all the responsibility and get the old commander out of this mess. I'd be willing to die for it."

Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice, "Uncle Yu, don't worry, I won't let you die. You will just have to take responsibility so that I can carry out the plan later. After all, the case involves too many people and so many people have died. Someone has to take responsibility."

"Everyone is watching this matter closely now, and I can't forcefully suppress it; that would backfire."

Uncle Yu nodded, walked over, and took Xiao Huai'an's hand, saying, "Listen to Xiao Zhan. Besides, I'm just being punished, not going to my death. Didn't I suffer enough grievances back then? What's a little grievance to me today?"

"Besides, many people did die during the execution of our plan, and I was the one who directly carried it out. I should bear the responsibility, brother. Don't worry about it."

With tears welling in his eyes, Xiao Huai'an said emotionally, "Brother, I am the commander. I can't let you bear my responsibilities. I..."

"Beep beep beep".

Suddenly the phone rang…

Xiao Huai'an looked at the landline on his desk that was ringing incessantly.

At this moment, Uncle Yu walked over, picked up the phone, and said, "Who are you looking for?"

His expression immediately changed, and he said, "Wait a moment."

Then he said to Xiao Huai'an, "Your phone call."

Xiao Huai'an looked sharply at Xiao Zhan, knowing that it must have been Xiao Zhan who reported it.

Xiao Zhan shrugged and said, "I know I can't convince you, so..."

"Why?"

Xiao Huai'an sighed, walked over, took the phone, and said, "This is Xiao Huai'an."

The voice on the other end of the phone said, "Xiao Huai'an, I heard you're acting like an old man. Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that the 'Fuxi' quantum communication technology couldn't do without you at a critical moment, I would have dealt with you this time. Don't think I wouldn't dare to touch you. You're getting more and more senile as you get older. You've done so many dirty things outside, and Xiao Zhan has been cleaning up your messes all along."

"Xiao Huai'an, listen to me carefully. You either listen to Xiao Zhan's arrangements, or I'll send you inside to work on a sewing machine."

"Clatter."

The other party hung up the phone.

Xiao Huai'an stood there, phone in hand, stunned.

"Why!"

After a dozen seconds, he sighed and hung up the phone, then said to Uncle Yu, "I'm sorry to have troubled you, old brother."

When Uncle Yu saw that Xiao Huai'an had finally relented, he grinned and said, "Hahaha, old chief, as long as I can stay by your side, I'm not ashamed to do anything. Without you, I would have died long ago. I have a large family of children and grandchildren now, and I'm already content."

Uncle Yu walked up to Xiao Zhan and extended his hands, saying, "Xiao Zhan, take me with you."

Xiao Zhan grinned and said, "Uncle Yu, what do you mean by that?"

Yu Bo laughed and said, "You can handcuff me and send me to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection for investigation."

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "Uncle Yu, you're overthinking it. With me here, who would dare to arrest you? All I need you to do is issue a statement to the public, and then accept an investigation by the relevant departments. In the end, you'll just retire with a severe punishment."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Yu was taken aback for a moment, then joked, "You should have said so earlier! I thought you were going to execute me!"

Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Huai'an and said, "Grandpa, you can no longer serve as the chairman of the Xiao Group. From now on, I will officially take over the group."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huai'an's face showed disbelief. Instead of being angry, he was pleased and said, "You brat, you're not joking with your grandpa, are you?"

"You've finally agreed to take it on?"

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "Hehe, do I look like I'm joking?"

"Grandpa, if you don't step down and use a strategic retreat to let me take over the Xiao Group, those people will definitely continue to use Uncle Yu as the closest person to you to besiege and suppress the company. I have to minimize the risks. I also have to fight a war without gunpowder with those old guys. Otherwise, they will think that I, the newly crowned number one in Beijing, am easy to bully."

Xiao Huai'an's eyebrows furrowed with joy as he grinned and said, "I will immediately convene a shareholders' meeting to discuss this matter and announce to the public that you will succeed him as chairman of the Xiao Group."

Xiao Zhan nodded.

suddenly,

Xiao Huai'an's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhan, is this also part of your Dragon Shield Project?"
