Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 184 Unchanged Down to the Last Detail_1

After listening to Xiao Ming’s call with the Family Head, the bodyguards no longer had any disdain for him; in fact, they were filled with fear.

They didn’t understand what Xiao Ming was talking about, but they knew that the Family Head of the Zhuang Family had caved.

The Zhuang family’s eldest son was beaten half to death, and the perpetrator only had to say a few words to escape without a hitch, even forcing the Zhuang family to abandon assets worth over a hundred million.

What kind of power was that? What kind of background?

What was going on?

The bodyguards looked at each other, not daring to answer yes or no, and just stood in line obediently, like punished elementary school students.

"I had no intention of using a knife on your young master again. Hurry up, who... never mind,"

Xiao Ming, impatient, kicked the burly man he had previously knocked out, "Just pick someone at random and chop off his right hand.

Only when it’s done can you take Zhuang Wending to see a doctor."

The bodyguards looked at each other; eventually, one with a more mature face stepped forward, pulling out a black military dagger over twenty centimeters long from behind his waist.

Xiao Ming was about to go to Jiang Xue’s side when he suddenly felt his trousers tighten. Looking down, he saw that Zhuang Wending had actually bitten onto his pant leg.

"What’s the matter? You turning into a dog now?"

Zhuang Wending let go and said, "Tell... tell me, why... did he want to kill my mo... mother..."

Xiao Ming let out a silent sigh, crouching down again and speaking softly, "Because, he once violated your mother.

And, as a matter of fact... you are actually his biological son!"

Zhuang Wending’s eyes widened in shock, and the next moment his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

In his previous life, after the Zhuang family was completely ruined, a reporter had written a detailed article about this family, so Xiao Ming knew all too well the sins the Zhuang family had committed.

As for some private and secret matters, he heard them from Zhuang Luonian’s niece during the previous call.

Both were from the same mysterious organization and could be considered friends.

And that "niece" wanted to leave the Zhuang family because she was disgusted by the dirty deeds done by Old Zhuang, agreeing to help only three times as a return for the blood ties.

By the way, Zhuang Luonian was killed by his eldest son, Zhuang Wending’s father.

His dad actually knew everything and had always been enduring it.

However, in this life, since Zhuang Wending had met Xiao Ming, whether the outcome would still be the same, only time could tell.

Xiao Ming didn’t care, for the more chaotic the Zhuang family was, the better it was for him.

True men should subdue the enemy without fighting and win decisive victories from thousands of miles away.

Those who only know how to fight and kill are just overzealous teenagers.

Soon, the people of the Zhuang family had left, leaving behind a messy scene and several construction workers still unconscious.

Xiao Ming finally felt heartache, as this was going to be his future home, and all the damaged decoration materials were paid for by him.

Especially the marble floor, with such delicate and beautiful patterns, but it had taken five bullets just now, and at least the nearby pieces would have to be pried up and relaid...

Before he finished worrying, he kicked away the plank that was cushioning Zhuang Wending’s hand, only to surprise himself when he found a roll of wall covering underneath.

Thick and firm with a softness inside, the five bullets were all caught in there, and the marble floor was unscathed.

This truly was a stroke of luck amid misfortune!

Free of worries, Xiao Ming smiled joyfully and pulled out his phone to call Ding Jianwei.

"The situation is resolved, no need for trouble."

Ding Jianwei didn’t seem surprised at all, "How’d you resolve it?"

"We can talk about the details when we have time to meet. Just calling to let you know that favor doesn’t count. Bye."

Hanging up the phone, he looked up at Zhou Qingyuan with a glare, "What are you still doing here?

After such a thrilling event, we, as husband and wife, need time to comfort each other and overcome our psychological trauma."

"Hurry up and get on with whatever you need to do! Really, you’re such a grown person and still can’t read the room."

Zhou Qingyuan was frustrated, she had a stomach full of questions to ask, but looking at Jiang Xue next to her, she ultimately could only stomp her foot and leave in a huff.

"She’s just concerned about you, and she’s a girl, the heiress to the Canghai Group, at that. How can you speak without showing the slightest bit of tact?"

Jiang Xue’s face showed no hint of strangeness, instead she complained.

"Concerned about what?" Xiao Ming held her hand, "Do you know how Zhuang Wending found you? It was her own brother, Zhou Jicang’s son, who deliberately caused trouble.

They owe my old man!"

Jiang Xue was surprised, "I thought you had a good relationship with the Zhou family? Why would Qingyuan try to hurt me?"

"Uh..." Xiao Ming scratched his head, embarrassed, "It seems... probably... should be because I broke Zhou Fangjing’s leg.

But I didn’t start it, he provoked me first."

Jiang Xue was speechless, "You! You used to be such a gentle and refined person in school, how come you’re becoming more hot-tempered with age?

Things like what just happened, I would never have imagined you could do before."

That’s because in my last life you left me, and no one was there to keep me in check!

Thinking to himself, Xiao Ming held her in his arms.

"Were you scared?"

"A little," Jiang Xue hugged his back tighter, "I feel like I’ve known you for eight years, been married to you for four, and yet today I still haven’t fully understood you.

Husband, do you have a lot on your mind

that you can’t share with me?" freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Yes! A full twenty years’ worth of things.

Kissing his wife’s forehead, Xiao Ming said, "It’s not that I can’t tell you, but I don’t know how to explain it, and I’m afraid of scaring you.

Give me some more time, when the time is right, I promise I’ll tell you everything without holding back.

For now, you just need to know that my love for you has never changed one bit!"

Jiang Xue hugged him even tighter, "Mhm, I’ll wait."

After talking for a while, Xiao Ming woke up the unconscious workers, told them the bad guys had been chased away, and gave each of them a thousand yuan to get a check-up at the hospital if they felt uneasy.

The workers all belonged to a regular renovation company and had cooperated with Maohe for many years. They were very familiar with Jiang Xue. Though puzzled, they didn’t ask further questions, thanked them, and left.

Xiao Ming asked Jiang Xue to wait outside the door while he took the bullets out of the wallpaper roll and cleaned up the blood and severed fingers, packaging them in a plastic bag before leaving.

His only worry was that Jiang Xue would feel uneasy when she found out that the place was actually his home.

But there was nothing he could do, the incident had already happened, so he’d have to deal with it when the time came.

If it really didn’t work out, he’d just buy another house, after all, money was easy to earn.

Getting in the car, Xiao Ming suddenly said, "In a couple of days, I might have to go on a trip. You should move in and stay with Yu for a few days."

Jiang Xue was taken aback, "Where are you going?"

"Lingnan. I have an appointment with Duan Hongqing of the Qingyuan Group to invest in a few tech companies."

Jiang Xue nodded, "Then you should go. But why do I need to move in with Yu?"

"Because Yu has bodyguards around her, you’ll be safer with her, and I’ll be able to rest easy while I’m away."

"Is that... appropriate?"

"There’s nothing inappropriate about it. I’ll talk to her tomorrow, and I’ll also borrow Lan for a few days."

As he spoke, Xiao Ming’s thoughts weren’t on Lingnan, but a cruise ship known only to a very few in the world.

It was both a gambling ship and one of the darkest auction sites.

He was going there to buy his wife a top-level personal bodyguard.
