Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 328 The Nail-loving Sha Lang_1
Chapter 328: Chapter 328 The Nail-loving Sha Lang_1
"Pfft! We’re not blind."
Zhou Qingyuan rolled her eyes playfully, "As the CEO of Ruiye Electronics Holdings, Lu Lichun almost has video meetings with us every morning.
Whenever you come up, her eyes sparkle, and her tone unconsciously rises, just like she suddenly took an aphrodisiac. What else could she be if not a whore?
It’s only because we trust your character that we know you wouldn’t be so low as to cheat while your wife is pregnant; otherwise, I’d have turned you into a pig’s head at the airport this morning."
Xiao Ming was both speechless and depressed.
What is this if not attracting attention without cheating? This is the classic answer.
"Sir," Mu Mian’s voice then came from the phone, "There’s a total of thirteen billion eight hundred and forty million US Dollars in the account, do you want to transfer it all out?"
"Wow! Mr. Hong doesn’t have a small cache of cash either! Looks like my blood wasn’t shed in vain."
Xiao Ming laughed, and, under Hong Sen’s pained gaze, he commanded, "Leave nothing behind!"
A few minutes later, Mu Mian said, "It’s all been transferred into your account. Do you have any other orders, sir?"
"Has the helicopter taken off?"
"It just took off. Due to distance, it may need to refuel midway. It’s expected to arrive in five and a half hours."
"Very well! You’ve worked hard."
"It’s Mu Mian’s honor to serve you. I wish you a pleasant day!"
After the call ended, Zhou Qingyuan started pouting again.
"Don’t be jealous for no reason, Mu Mian is just like an operator; she talks like this with everyone."
"What kind of operator?"
Xiao Ming hesitated, then said, "I didn’t mean to keep it from you, but there are some things you shouldn’t know about.
There are many dirty and dark things in this world that belong only to men. Just be good, stay clean and watch from the shore."
Zhou Qingyuan went silent, hung her head, and seemed lost in thought.
"I don’t understand."
At that moment, Hong Sen spoke up, "You’ve turned Sha Lang against me, you’re able to quietly eliminate seven of my men, and you have someone who treats poisonous insects like pets. Furthermore, my bank account isn’t something that can be operated on just with a password.
Any of these points alone is enough to prove that you’re no ordinary businessman and are perfectly capable of killing me without a scratch.
So, I don’t understand why you would take the risk personally? Why did you inflict injuries on yourself?"
Zhou Qingyuan looked up at the mention of this, eager to hear Xiao Ming’s answer.
This time, Xiao Ming did not disappoint her.
"Does Mr. Hong have someone he would rather die than see lose a single hair?"
Hong Sen looked perplexed for a moment, then shook his head: "No."
"Then you wouldn’t understand even if I explained."
Xiao Ming smiled, "In this world, there’s no such thing as a sure thing. Until I’m certain that my family is completely safe, I am willing to do anything. What is taking a few stabs in comparison?
Of course, three stabs were actually enough, especially those two holes in my leg, completely unnecessary.
But there’s no helping it,"
As he said this, he reached out and fondly ruffled Mingyue’s hair: "This girl had pent-up anger. Unless I let her vent until she felt good, she wasn’t willing to help me easily."
Mingyue froze, her expression odd, seeming very unaccustomed to having her head touched yet also appearing to quite like it. Even after Xiao Ming’s hand left, she instinctively lifted her head to follow the touch.
"You mean to say..." Zhou Qingyuan glared at Mingyue with anger, "she arrived early but deliberately waited until you were seriously injured before she took action?"
Xiao Ming nodded, "If I’m not mistaken, before the first three strikes, her little darlings were already in place, ready to kill everyone here at any moment."
"That’s outrageous!"
Zhou Qingyuan stood up in anger and confronted Mingyue, "Even a blind person can see how much Xiao Ming cares for you, how could you do that to him?"
"I already said that, if possible, I would be more than happy to kill him myself!" Mingyue replied coldly, "Also, don’t spout nonsense. Before today, I had never laid eyes on him."
Zhou Qingyuan felt a little foolish, glancing between her and Xiao Ming, her mind a complete muddle.
"To put it simply, I have a deep connection with Mingyue’s grandfather. Indeed, Mingyue doesn’t know me, but I know her.
Moreover, she’s just a bit peculiar. Once you get to know her over time, you’ll find she’s actually quite adorable.
If her skin were white enough, you’d see her blushing right now."
Mingyue immediately bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, "Xiao Ming, are you asking for pain again?"
"Not at all, not at all, my dear lady, you’ve worked hard."
"Hmph!"
Mingyue bent down again and busied herself with her work. Xiao Ming winked at Zhou Qingyuan, meaning, "See, I didn’t lie to you, she’s easy to please."
Suppressing her confusion, Zhou Qingyuan pouted, "So, you’re saying that the cut on your leg wasn’t taken for me after all!"
Xiao Ming rolled his eyes, "Mingyue, let your darlings bite me to death!"
"Buzz off."
Zhou Qingyuan gently pushed him, her gaze falling on Mingyue’s blood-stained hands as she continued working.
In reality, she was well aware that the cut on Xiao Ming’s leg was indeed for her.
At first, along with feeling distressed, she was also a bit happy because it meant that she was more important to Xiao Ming than any other woman.
But as the conversation went on, she began to feel that the truth might not be as she had thought, yet she couldn’t guess what it actually was; just as she was about to probe, Xiao Ming played dead, not even willing to respond.
As she fell silent, Xiao Ming too seemed to succumb to the fatigue from the blood loss and closed his eyes to rest.
The room quieted down, only Xiao Bing was intently watching Mingyue tend to the wounds, occasionally sucking in a breath of air as if she herself felt the pain.
After some time had passed, Hong Sen suddenly started to gasp for air, then began to cough violently, spewing clumps of bloody foam from his mouth, scratching his chest with desperation, his expression distorted by excruciating pain.
Clearly, it was a symptom of lung rupture, where blood and air had entered the pleural cavity, also known as pneumothorax.
As Hong Sen’s struggling grew more intense, the knife fixed on the back of the sofa was widening the wound little by little. More and more blood was flowing, and the range of the pneumothorax was expanding.
Soon, he had torn his clothes, his skin, leaving behind stark, bloody traces, even attempting to pull out the knife pierced in his chest.
"Xiao... please... kill... me..."
His eyes bulging, he begged hoarsely, but Xiao Ming remained unmoved, his gaze even carrying a scrutinizing quality, as if studying the states of a person dying from pneumothorax.
But not everyone at the scene was a sadist, and Zhou Qingyuan was after all just an ordinary girl.
"Brother Xiao, grant his request, please."
"Okay, close your eyes."
Zhou Qingyuan obediently closed her eyes, hearing Xiao Ming command coldly, "Sha Lang, don’t make it too bloody."
When Hong Sen finally stopped moving, she cautiously opened her eyes, only to see that another knife had been added to his body.
This time it was on the left chest, piercing through the heart, looking as if it were nailed to the back of the sofa, making one wonder if this person named Sha Lang had a peculiar penchant for such things.
