Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 324: Will Continue to Torment You Alive_1

Mr. Hong clearly hadn’t expected Xiao Ming to make such a request. His eyes widened in surprise, and with a laugh, he said, "You really are the most interesting person I’ve ever met.

To cut yourself means at least you can control the force and decide how deep or shallow the cut will be. This is also a gesture of sincerity from me.

You do understand, don’t you?"

"Thanks for the generous offer, Mr. Hong."

Xiao Ming was also full of smiles, "But, as you said, doing business requires integrity.

I’m well aware of how intense Zhuang Wending’s hatred for me is. If the blood flow isn’t sufficient, maybe later Mr. Hong would turn ’cut’ into ’stab’.

So, to suffer less, I think it’s better to ask a professional to do it.

That way, I can live long enough and bleed enough—at least visually achieving the ’drenched in blood’ effect won’t be difficult."

Clap, clap, clap, clap!

Mr. Hong applauded, cigar smoke puffing non-stop, "Mr. Xiao, you do honor us as the first target in the history of our ’shelter’ who has been marked for death by two major customers at the same time.

I’m liking you more and more, I’m even starting to feel a bit reluctant to kill you.

If I take you back and train you into a dog, it would be quite entertaining."

"Alright then!"

Xiao Ming turned his face towards Yun Shi Yu, Yang Hanqing, and the others, smiling gently, "As long as you release my women, I can start ’woofing’ for you right away."

Mr. Hong laughed out loud a few times, then his expression turned serious and he ordered, "Sha Lang, go help."

Immediately, Sha Lang circled the couch, striding over to Xiao Ming, reaching out to take the knife in his hand.

"Hold on a moment."

Xiao Ming unzipped his coat, "Since it’s a bloodbath, fewer clothes mean the effect is more noticeable, and it also makes it easier to cut. I hope Mr. Sha can make it as painless as possible for me."

With that, he took off his coat and passed it, along with the knife, to Sha Lang.

As soon as Sha Lang picked up the knife, his pupils contracted to pinpoint size, his whole body tensed tightly, and veins bulged on his forehead.

On the label inside Xiao Ming’s coat, a line of small words was written: Xing told you to follow my orders.

The next moment, Sha Lang grabbed the coat and casually tossed it behind the sofa, then swung the knife.

Swish, swish, swish!

In no more than a second, three slashes appeared on the chest of Xiao Ming’s shirt, and blood quickly seeped out, slowly staining and merging into a patch of crimson.

"A true expert does indeed bring less pain,"

Xiao Ming grinned at Sha Lang, and catching a glimpse of Zhou Qingyuan struggling violently, he said, "Calm down, will you? Your hands and feet are tied, and other than causing me trouble, what more can you do?

Really, blowing your nose bubbles that big, Hanqing and Meng haven’t even shed tears yet, and here you are crying like it’s the end of the world so early!

Just sit quietly and don’t move. If you disobey, believe me, I’ll smack you."

Zhou Qingyuan quieted down. Unable to speak, she could only glower at him with red, swollen eyes, as if she was eager to leap up and bite him.

Xiao Ming then looked at the other four people and smiled, "Don’t overthink it. It’s not that I doubt your concern for me, I was just trying to provoke Qingyuan a bit.

That girl is always like a crab, just asking to be bullied.

In the end, you all suffer because of me, and it’s also due to my carelessness that we find ourselves in this situation. If you don’t hate me, I should be grateful.

If you have any hard feelings, when we leave later you can slap me, but not too hard—having a swollen face isn’t a good look."

His words earned him looks of pain and tenderness from five pairs of eyes; even Qingyuan couldn’t bear to glare at him any longer.

Xiao Ming felt both headache and satisfaction, turning his gaze back, he asked Mr. Hong, "So, is it one by one? Or all at once?"

Mr. Hong held up four fingers, "Four people, four hundred million, four cuts. You pick."

Xiao Ming frowned, "And the last person?"

Mr. Hong bared his gold teeth and hissed with a smile, "One cut, two holes, on the house."

"Mr. Hong sure knows how to have fun!"

Xiao Ming shook his head with a sigh, grabbed his phone again, and redialed the number he had just called, "It’s the same account, four hundred million US dollars."

Once that was settled, his gaze swept over Yun Shi Yu, Yang Hanqing, Bai Xuechao, and Gu Xiangmeng before finally resting on Zhou Qingyuan’s face.

"Girl, are you willing to stick with me until the end?"

Zhou Qingyuan was stunned, then nodded fiercely, tears welling up but her eyes curved into a joyful shape.

If it really has to be a double betrayal, you’re the only suitable one.

Because this is what I owe you.

As he said this to himself, Xiao Ming said to Hong Sen, "Let them go!"

Hong Sen was quite the brute, immediately waving his cigar, and the two Mad Dogs cut the tape from the hands and feet of the four, excluding Zhou Qingyuan.

The first to rush over was Yun Shi Yu.

This girl was indeed extraordinary, glaring as she questioned, "Why is Zhou Qingyuan the one staying?"

Xiao Ming forced a smile, "Sister, let’s not fight over this right now, okay?"

Yun Shi Yu tried to grab his collar, but the moment her fingers touched his blood-red shirt, it was as if she had been burnt, and tears started pouring down.

"If you dare to die, I’ll immediately team up with Shen Siyi to take over your company, making sure your wife only has an empty house to live in.

Don’t doubt it, I mean what I say!"

"If you’ve never been a mother, don’t casually call yourself one; it sounds awkward... Mmmh!"

Yun Shi Yu kissed him deeply, then turned and left.

Next was Yang Hanqing, and Xiao Ming quickly said, "Don’t you dare kiss me!"

Yang Hanqing laughed through her tears and gave him a flirtatious look, "What a stink attitude! You’ve turned my place into a bloody mess, I won’t feel safe living there anymore.

Your house has many rooms, I’ll pick one, you don’t mind, do you?"

"Uh... you’ll have to ask Xue’er about that."

"Mm, come back home soon."

Yang Hanqing squeezed Xiao Ming’s arm firmly and then bowed her head and left.

She truly was a naturally good wife, Zhang Anli must have been out of his mind to commit murder over a small company.

As Xiao Ming was reflecting on this, a calm voice rang out in front of him.

"Mr. Xiao, you can’t break the promise you made to me."

Bai Xuechao had always been the tough type, she didn’t shed a tear, but her eyes were fiercely red, like a mother beast who had lost her cub.

"Don’t worry! I rarely make promises to anyone, and once I do, you can consider it as a prophecy, more valuable than a pile of gold."

Bai Xuechao nodded, gave him a deep look, and was about to walk away, but she heard him adding, "You were almost out of that life, and I forbid you to contact those gangsters again.

You don’t need to handle this, did you hear me?"

Bai Xuechao bit her lip, but her stubbornness faltered under Xiao Ming’s stern gaze and she conceded within seconds.

"I heard you."

"Good girl!"

As Bai Xuechao turned around, Xiao Ming reached out and ruffled Gu Xiangmeng’s hair.

The girl was tearful, but before she could speak, he beat her to it, "Don’t even say you want to stay with me."

Gu Xiangmeng pouted, "Then..."

"And don’t wait for me outside either."

The girl grew agitated and stamped her foot forcefully, "You just know how to be mean to me!"

Xiao Ming chuckled softly, leaned in to touch his face to hers, then whispered in her ear, "Be obedient, leave with Xuechao first, I promise you, I’ll survive and continue to be mean to you."
