Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 397 I Firmly Believe_1
Chapter 397: Chapter 397 I Firmly Believe_1
An Kefang really became obedient and buried her face deep into Xiao Ming’s chest, wrapping her arms tightly around his back, like an ostrich hiding its head in the sand.
In the past she was naively clumsy, but these past few days she genuinely wanted to understand everything.
And at this moment, she finally realized how inopportune the naivety of an adult could be.
Xiao Ming’s embrace was her last chance to let go of all expectations and deceive herself willingly.
"Qingfeng, take Mingyue with you, find a way to kill Saint, and make no mistakes!"
Xiao Ming acted very rogue, not only making a phone call but also using the speakerphone.
This pleased An Xianhe greatly, who nodded with a smile and said, "Regardless, Mr. Xiao’s sheer audacity alone is admirable!"
Xiao Ming did not revert to his previous frivolous and joking demeanor, and said to the person behind An Xianhe, "Bring over my cigarettes and lighter."
An Xianhe nodded, and the person did as instructed.
Lighting a cigarette and taking a deep drag, Xiao Ming continued, "Do you know that the so-called Saint you met with me today was just a substitute?"
"This is hardly a great secret," An Xianhe responded.
"If so, what use is there in killing him?"
"No, Mr. Xiao is mistaken, it’s not us who will kill him, but you."
A flash of light appeared in Xiao Ming’s eyes, and he replied with a faint smile, "I kill Cui Zhibo, then you kill me, leaving no evidence, even if Saint suspects something, he would have to generously reward you all not to dishearten his subordinates.
Perhaps the one behind you could even become the new substitute, holding great power.
Not only does this get rid of the trouble I pose, but it also clears the way for advancement, killing two birds with one stone, such a well-played game!"
An Xianhe snorted coldly, "It’s already too late now that you’ve finally understood. Everything has been brought on by yourself, who else can you blame?"
"What a joke!" Xiao Ming spat out a puff of smoke, "Don’t forget, I didn’t come to Qingyang on my own volition."
An Xianhe was taken aback.
"Moreover, if I am not mistaken, Hao Xiangyu’s speeding on the highway that troubled me was not a coincidence, right?
And the subsequent setup against me by the daughters of the four families, that wasn’t just driven by his inability to swallow the humiliation, correct?"
Xiao Ming went on, "Hao Xiangyu is a fool, easy to stir up, the choice of him as a key point was truly brilliant. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Just wonder if Hao Taixing, the old man, has figured it out or not. It appears that the Hao Family follows him as the leader, but in reality, it’s you three families playing dirty behind the scenes, viciously stabbing him in the back.
Provoking me, making an enemy out of me, complicating matters, forcing Cui Zhibo to come personally, then forcing me to kill him, and in the end killing me.
From beginning to end, the Hao Family is the only one losing.
Ha! Although this scheme is too crafty, with many flaws and uncertainties, judging by the outcome, it’s still quite impressive.
Especially the ploy of using An Kefang, the silly girl, to divert my attention and guard, truly a masterstroke."
A flicker of shock passed through An Xianhe’s eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Xiao’s mind is sharp, wisdom profound, I am impressed!
But as I said before, it’s too late to understand now."
Xiao Ming shrugged indifferently, patting the head of the girl in his embrace, "So, for the sake of this plan, you three old thieves sold out your own granddaughter.
Wu Xiaomei, Wu Xiaochun, and Chang Lerong are one thing, disfigurement and severed fingers are deserved, but what did An Kefang do to deserve this?
With so many morally bankrupt descendants in your family, why did you have to pick out the most innocent and naive one?"
An Xianhe’s expression remained calm and open, "Most of the offspring of the four families are good-for-nothing; it would be impossible to deceive Mr. Xiao but An Kefang, who doesn’t lie, was the most suitable. The result has also proven as much.
Furthermore, from beginning to end, she was merely participating and didn’t suffer any harm..."
"Fuck your ’no harm’!"
Xiao Ming flung his cigarette butt on An Xianhe’s face, "Wu Xiaomei and the others only suffered some physical damage, a bit of pain and fright, they’ll be fine after treatment.
But what An Kefang lost is her twenty years of beautiful perception of this world.
You old bastard, you’ve ruined her for life!"
A trace of guilt emerged in An Xianhe’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference. Wiping the cigarette ash from his face, he said, "She’s over twenty years old; it’s time she grew up."
Feeling the body in his embrace suddenly tense up, Xiao Ming took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
"An Xianhe, your time has come."
"No!"
An Kefang suddenly raised her head, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded, "Brother Xiao, please don’t kill my grandfather, okay?"
"Hey hey hey, An Kefang, you’re going too far!" Xiao Ming glared, "We’ve been talking about how I am going to die for so long, and you had no reaction, but the moment we talk about killing him, you immediately intervene.
So the shirt of mine you dirtied is worthless, is that it?"
An Kefang had no response but bit her lip and shook her head vigorously.
"An Kefang, have you lost your mind?" An Xianhe spoke up displeased, "Xiao Ming is doomed today, why beg him?"
"No! Brother Xiao surely won’t die, I firmly believe it!"
An Kefang spoke with absolute certainty.
Xiao Ming cracked a slight smile, "Alright, because of what you said just now, let’s forget about the past overstepping, but don’t let it happen again.
However, it seems you can’t stop yourself from learning to be ’smart’ even when I’m not looking, so stop taking advantage of me, sit properly, and meet the real behind-the-scenes BOSS with me.
An old bastard, there’s nothing more to talk about with you, let Jiang Nanxi come out!"
