Chapter 635 Wen Li: "Do you dare to touch him?"; Lu Xixiao: "Do you dare to touch her?"
Wen Li slowly put down the hand holding the knife and fork, and his chewing movements also slowed down a little bit.
She raised her eyelids and looked at Hudson with cold eyes. He threatened her with Lu Jingyuan and acted as if he wanted to die together with her. She chewed the beef fillet in her mouth intermittently, and rubbed the cold metal knife and fork with her fingertips.
"Most of the time, I'm not easily persuaded by soft tactics. Occasionally, I'll accept soft tactics but not hard ones, especially threats." Wen Li leaned back, sizing up Hudson, and twitched his lips. "Both sides will suffer losses? A desperate struggle? You overestimate yourself. You can risk everything to fight me and Lu Xixiao, but do you have what it takes to stand up to the Chinese military?"
Hudson chuckled, placed a black pistol on the table, and said with a smile, "If that lieutenant general can't show up before I shoot, then everything I say will be in vain. You are indeed valuable to China, but how much energy and time can China waste on a few dead people in Country M?"
Lu Xixiao: "You've got the wrong guy to threaten me."
Although his lover and family were kidnapped, Lu Xixiao's face showed no sign of tension. Simon tried to find a flaw in Lu Xixiao's strength and calmness, but there was none. All Lu Xixiao's face and eyes showed contempt for him and his father's recklessness and murderous intent for being offended.
Wen Li: "You not only overestimate yourself, but also underestimate your opponent. This is a fatal mistake in any industry. Lu Xixiao has more than just the Lu family behind him. He is also the world's largest arms dealer, an important partner of the Chinese military, and a key protected person in China."
Lu Xixiao: "The Wen Li you kidnapped is a Chinese soldier with a confidential position and is a key protected person in China."
Wen Li said calmly, "At this moment, our position has been locked by the Chinese military. Do you dare to touch them?"
Lu Xixiao was calm and composed, his eyes sneered as he said, "You can imagine the consequences of touching her, would you dare?"
Simon said nothing, his expression no longer as relaxed as before.
Lu Xixiao: "Don't panic, there's no need to mobilize a large army to deal with a DuPont family. I just want you to know that if you want to fight someone to the death, you must first make sure you are qualified enough."
Wen Li: "You can't use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken. I just want you to die knowingly. Let me show you a way out. If you kneel down and beg me now, your DuPont family might still have a descendant, but your DuPont family business is unlikely to be saved."
Lu Xixiao: "Today, you and your father choose one to die, and I will let one of you live. If you don't choose, neither of you will live."
Neither Hudson nor his son had expected that these two people had such an identity. The father and son who failed to threaten them were threatened by the two people instead.
Hudson looked at Wen Li, Simon looked at Lu Xixiao, murderous intent flickered in their eyes and they didn't speak for a while.
Lu Xixiao said in a cold and insulting tone, "Do you need to go over and discuss countermeasures with your father again?"
The box fell into silence.
At this moment, Langdon's phone rang.
He checked the caller ID and picked up the phone.
It was one of the directors who called. There were already five directors present. They gathered together, but were blocked by Hudson's people at the outermost edge and could not get close to the Western restaurant.
Langdon glanced at Simon, who was at a disadvantage. He was no longer panicked or anxious. Just as he was about to ask a few directors to wait downstairs, he heard a noise coming from the other end of the phone.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"Why are you arresting us? Where are you taking us?"
The call was immediately hung up.
Langdon suddenly realized that the directors he had recruited were already under Hudson's control, and his mood became heavy again.
It is no longer feasible to gather the directors to forcibly impeach Simon from the position of CEO and then force Hudson to step down.
The path before him and his son was clear - either be transferred to the UK, or it would be almost impossible to return to the United States, which was no different from being expelled from the DuPont family.
Either they and their son die, or the Hudsons die.
Caesar, who had been sitting upright and nervous the whole time, saw his father's caller ID. From his father's expression, he probably guessed that the directors' reinforcements would not be able to arrive.
As Langdon hung up the phone, the box fell silent again.
The headshot line was aimed at Lu Xixiao's head through the glass.
It is windy today, and the trajectory of the bullet is likely to deviate at this distance. The sniper is like a dormant hunting beast, waiting for the opportunity.
Lu Qi suddenly received a report from his subordinates through his Bluetooth headset.
At this time, the wind stopped.
Just before the sniper was about to pull the trigger, Lu Qi, who was standing behind Lu Xixiao, suddenly moved and quickly moved to Lu Xixiao's left side to block the sitting Lu Xixiao.
The headshot line then appeared on Lu Qi's body.
The sniper's movements suddenly stopped.
Lu Qi had his back to the window, his face expressionless. He lowered his voice and said to Lu Xixiao in Chinese, "Fifth Master, our people have spotted a suspicious individual who looks like a sniper in the direction of 375."
Lu Xixiao looked at him with a slightly stern expression. He then tilted his head slightly and saw that the curtains opposite were drawn.
"Don't worry, I've already informed Lu Wu." Lu Qi stood still and asked his men to draw the curtains behind him.
Lu Wu, who didn't know how many snipers were lurking there, quickly told Wen Li after pulling the curtains. Feeling it was not safe enough, he used his body to block Wen Li and Lu Jingyuan. At the same time, he put one hand inside his suit and held the gun, his eyes fixed on Hudson. His action caused the men behind Hudson to touch the guns on their waists as well.
Sensing danger, the black general bent his limbs slightly, lowered his body, and made an attacking posture at any time, baring his teeth at the opposite side.
Wen Li and Lu Xixiao both initially suspected that the sniper was arranged by Hudson and his son, but Hudson and his son could not understand Lu Qi and Lu Wu's sudden actions.
Discovered?
The sniper couldn't help but frown.
The sniper realized that he had been exposed and lost his target, but had no intention of retreating. Instead, he immediately moved the muzzle of his gun and determined Simon's position with his extraordinary memory.
Lu Xixiao is the first target.
Simon was the second target and Hudson was the third target.
The blind sniper pulled the trigger decisively.
The bullet shattered the glass and penetrated the back of the chair.
Simon, who had just stood up to leave the table, was scratched on the arm. He quickly retreated to a blind spot and looked at the bullet hole on the left side of the chair back with a lingering fear. If Lu Qi's action had not alerted him, the bullet would have penetrated his heart.
Lu Qi originally thought that the sniper's target was Lu Xixiao.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Simon.
Could it be that Langdon arranged this?
The table was empty.
Everyone retreated to the safe zone.
The bodyguards in the box and the two groups of men on the street all drew their guns and became alert because of this sudden change.
Lu Xixiao reacted quickly and immediately sent people to capture the sniper.
It wasn't necessarily arranged by Langdon.
Caesar, who retreated in panic, was stunned for two seconds, and his brain became extremely clear. When most people didn't react, he suddenly rushed back to the dining table, grabbed the pistol covered by the napkin, pulled the safety and was about to shoot Simon again.
He knew that even if he won the inheritance, he would never be able to hold on to the position as long as Simon was still alive.
At this point, even if he backed out, he couldn't just give up the inheritance rights. He had no choice but to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice.
When Caesar rushed to the dining corner to get a gun, Simon knew what he was going to do. He drew his gun decisively and fired before Caesar pointed the gun at him and pulled the trigger.
The bullet hit Caesar's forehead accurately.
"Caesar!"
The incident happened too quickly. Langdon didn't expect his son to have the courage to shoot Simon, and he didn't expect his son to be killed in return. He screamed in shock and witnessed his son die at Simon's gun. He rushed towards the fallen Caesar like a madman.
A trace of pity flashed across Simon's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
He was a sniper and shot himself. If he hadn't been lucky, he would be the one lying on the ground now.
He then turned the gun and pointed it at Lu Xixiao.
