Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 319: Beat the Shit Out of Him_1

Lunch was hosted by Shen Siyi, and the venue was naturally at the Dragon Banquet, owned by Qianshan Group.

This fortunate fellow even deliberately invited Bai Xuechao and Gu Xiangmeng, but it was unclear whether it was to welcome them or to enjoy a catfight.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ming would not allow him to have his way. Aside from exchanging a few pleasantries at the beginning, he spent almost all his time with Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhimeng.

He either added food to his child’s plate or whispered sweet nothings with his wife, making the two of them, big and small, chuckle nonstop, oblivious to everything else, while ignoring Gu Xiangmeng’s solid-like wistful gazes.

As the only woman in the room who did not harbor any feelings for Xiao Ming, Gu Tinglan was taken aback when she first saw a table full of lovely ladies.

The absent Yun Shi Yu was calm and quiet, Zhou Qingyuan was hot and fiery; Bai Xuechao had a refreshing dignity, Gu Xiangmeng youthful and vibrant; and Yang Hanqing didn’t even need mentioning – she was innately sultry to the core.

Xiao Li was stunning, Xiao Bing was lively, and together with the graceful and dignified Jiang Xue, every woman there was a standout. Any regular man would consider himself lucky to have just one, and would probably wake up laughing from a dream at his good fortune.

How could Xiao Ming remain so calm and composed?

Could his heart really be made of stone?

"Another serving of Nine Turns Intestine, please."

The sound of Xiao Ming calling over a server brought Gu Tinglan back to her senses, just in time to see this man lovingly stroking his daughter’s nose.

"You little stinker, both of your parents are from the south, so how did you end up with a stomach from the north? You want another plate of that greasy stuff? Be careful, or you’ll grow up to be a chubby girl."

Xiao Zhimeng, nestled in his arms, laughed, "But that intestine is so yummy, Daddy. Don’t you like it?"

"I do."

"So my stomach is just like Daddy’s. Even if I get fat, I will still be Daddy’s favorite chubby girl."

Xiao Ming laughed heartily, showering his little girl with affection, then urged the server to hurry up with the dish.

Gu Tinglan couldn’t help but smile.

Xiao Ming’s heart wasn’t made of stone; he was simply rational enough to resist temptation.

Such a man was born to be successful.

After another round of jokes, Jiang Xue took out her phone to make a call, "Lan, are Yu and the others back yet... Alright, please let me know when there’s news."

"So Lan didn’t go after Yu, that’s unusual." Xiao Ming served her a bowl of clear broth with silver fungus.

"Yu told her that she would handle lunch with Qingyuan outside and then take a cab directly to the office, so she didn’t ask her to pick them up."

"Yu and Qingyuan are adults, and they’re not foolish. They know what they should and shouldn’t do, so stop worrying." freewёbnoνel.com

"If they really knew that, then I wouldn’t need to worry, would I?" Jiang Xue took a sip of her soup with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

Xiao Ming scratched his head, "At least, I’m doing what I should be doing, and your eyes and heart can testify for me."

Jiang Xue sighed, "Oh, you! Always playing innocent when you run out of justifications. Sometimes, I really want to act like those women outside, making a huge fuss without care, and get you to drive away all the women around you."

"You’re wrong. The women outside only know how to confront mistresses."

"They’re foolish! If their own husband makes a mistake, why should they blame outsiders? If you don’t correct a man’s faults, once the mistress is chased away, another ’little fourth’ will appear."

"Hence why I say our child’s mother is wise!"

"Oh, cut it out! Always talking nonsense whenever you’re out of reason."

After a few sips of soup, Jiang Xue remembered something and added, "Right, after we finish eating, you go home first. I need to stop by Kanjiang No. 1."

A flash of light swept through Xiao Ming’s eyes as he put on a stern face, "Why go to a new house full of formaldehyde when you’re heavily pregnant? Don’t tell me you’ve been busy these past two months."

"Do you think I’m as irresponsible as you?"

Jiang Xue gave him a look, "You haven’t been gone long, and the house is already furnished.

Moreover, the client didn’t set a budget, so I was very particular about choosing eco-friendly materials during the renovation. Both the paint and glue have the lowest possible formaldehyde content.

For the past two months, I’ve sent my assistant daily to ventilate the place. A few days ago, we even had a third-party inspection, and the pollutant levels now meet the standards; you could move in anytime."

"Why hasn’t the property transaction been completed yet?" Xiao Ming asked, even though he already knew the answer.

"The client went abroad and only recently came back. It’s just a coincidence that they scheduled the property inspection for this afternoon, so I have to go.

If everything goes well, I’ll be able to lounge at home every day and have you take care of me."

"Mhm," Xiao Ming nodded, "Then I’ll accompany you.

If the client dares to nitpick, I’ll beat the shit out of them."

At the same time, a small box truck had just entered the city area.

Inside the truck, Yun Shi Yu and Zhou Qingyuan were huddled together in a corner, their hands and feet bound with tape, as an indifferent man who had just opened a new roll of tape was preparing to tape their mouths shut.

"Who exactly are you?" Yun Shi Yu asked.

The two girls were strong-willed, and despite feeling scared, they remained composed.

Zhou Qingyuan continued: "We’ve both taken out kidnap insurance. If you’re after money, you only need to call our families; they definitely won’t call the police."

The man, around thirty years old, looked thin, but the veins bulging on the arm coming out of his sleeve left no doubt about his strength.

His face was as if carved from wood, emanating death, with only a faint light shining in his small eyes, showing that he was still a living person.

"I am called Sha Lang."

The man spoke, his accent strange, clearly not a Han Country citizen, but he spoke Mandarin reasonably fluently.

"If you have any last words for your families, tell me now."

Yun and Zhou Qingyuan’s faces turned pale with shock.

Because it was clear what this meant: he had no intention of letting them leave alive.

"Why?" Yun Shi Yu furrowed her brow, "We don’t even know you, let alone have any feud with you. Why do you want to kill us?"

"You are Xiao Ming’s women; you must die!"

Sha Lang spoke like a talking puppet, his awkward accent sending shivers down the spines of the two women.

"Bullshit!" Zhou Qingyuan cursed out loud, "I just fancy him, that’s all. When did I become his woman? Do you not have a brain?"

Sha Lang remained expressionless: "You must all die!"

"You..."

Yun Shi Yu stopped Zhou Qingyuan, who was about to curse again, and asked: "So, your intention is to kill everyone related to Xiao Ming?"

Sha Lang nodded.

"What about him?"

"He will watch all of you die, then die himself."

"Do you have a grudge against him?"

Sha Lang shook his head: "He harmed our brothers. This is the price he must pay."

Yun Shi Yu and Zhou Qingyuan looked at each other and nearly spoke in unison: "You are Mad Dog!"

Sha Lang didn’t answer, instead, he tore off two strips of tape and sealed their mouths.

"You’ve forfeited the chance to leave any last words. I will behead you and send your heads to your families."

His voice was mechanical, neither hot nor cold, as if it didn’t come from this world, sending chills down the spines of Yun Shi Yu and Zhou Qingyuan.

Xiao Ming had told them about the assassin organization "Fierce Dog Shelter," and they knew very well that these people were obstinate, relentlessly pursuing their goal without any room for negotiation.

You either kill, or get killed!
