Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 297: Benevolence to the Ultimate, Righteousness to the End_1

Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Benevolence to the Ultimate, Righteousness to the End_1

"Sir, you just said that Guan Qingchang deliberately let me overhear Ye Jin’an’s name. What does he want to do?"

Lu Lichun sat on Xiao Ming’s lap, wrapping her arms around his neck with extreme intimacy, but the words she spoke were very serious and anxious.

"You’re also a businessperson, so you should know that when a local ringlead wants to pick fruit, they generally wait until the fruit is ripe to enjoy the readymade result," Xiao Ming said.

"But my company, although well-funded, is just getting started. There’s no reason for Guan Qingchang to be so impatient, and to be so unsightly about it.

So, from the beginning, I found this uncle and nephew pair very strange.

Later on, their intention to bid for that bronze hairpin was also strange—it incomprehensibly escalated our conflict as if it were predestined that we would clash.

Only when you brought over the name ’Ye Jin’an’ did everything start to make sense.

The one who wants my company and the bronze hairpin is him.

After failing at both tasks, to save face, they could only take advantage of our relationship and deliberately let you overhear and then tell me.

Their goal, of course, is to scare me into submission, to obediently give in to their wishes and hand over the company shares."

"Ah? Then I’ve... I’ve harmed you?"

Lu Lichun became frantic and her face was filled with remorse.

Xiao Ming smirked, "You don’t think I’d be afraid of Ye Jin’an, do you?"

"That’s the Ye Family, an existence that ranks among the top elite households, far beyond what our Lu Family can compare with. Isn’t it normal to be afraid?" Lu Lichun thought he was too proud to admit it, so she offered him an out.

"Then you really underestimate your husband!"

Xiao Ming scoffed coldly, "I’ve already said before that now that the real player has appeared, Guan Qingchang no longer has the qualifications to swagger in front of me. My only opponent is Ye Jin’an."

Lu Lichun was smart enough to understand quickly, exclaiming in surprise, "Sir, did you deliberately fall into the trap just to draw out Ye Jin’an?"

"Whether he shows up or not doesn’t matter; this time, I’m going to make him pay dearly both personally and financially."

Seeing that Xiao Ming had made up his mind and was confident in his approach, Lu Lichun decided not to worry anymore, giggled, and leaned into his ear to whisper with a breath, "Sir, your words sound like you’re talking about my husband.

His wife has already been sacrificed into your arms, hasn’t she?"

Xiao Ming’s heart skipped a beat, and he chuckled speechlessly.

This woman knew how to be seductive.

Three minutes passed quickly and Guan Ruiming stepped out the door, "Xiao Ming, everything’s been arranged. Come in!"

Xiao Ming lazily lifted his eyelids, "Do you want to kneel too?"

Guan Ruiming clenched his fists and his body tensed to the point of trembling, looking as though he very much wanted to chop Xiao Ming into mincemeat, but in the end, he exhaled and bowed his head, extending his hand to say, "Mr. Xiao, please come in."

Only then did Xiao Ming pat Lu Lichun’s buttocks and stand up. As he passed by Guan Ruiming, he deliberately asked, "Do you know that this little bastard has his eye on you?"

Lu Lichun was stunned for a moment, then with a "huh" she vigorously rubbed her arms, her face full of disgust.

"Sir, don’t be disgusting. I’m about to vomit out yesterday’s dinner," Lu Lichun said.

Xiao Ming burst into laughter, "Don’t worry, after today, you’ll never see him again in your lifetime."

Guan Ruiming listened intently, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot, staring fixedly at Xiao Ming’s hand on Lu Lichun’s waist and hips, without considering what his last words meant.

You can relish this moment of triumph, Xiao Ming, just for a while longer. Once the agreement is signed, I will personally flay you alive!

Comforting himself with silent threats, Guan Ruiming stiffly walked into the room.

Although this hall was used for meetings, it wasn’t styled with a long conference table as in modern settings, but rather it was furnished with several small rosewood round tables.

If not for the three main seats facing south in the northern part of the hall, it would have looked more like a classical tea house.

As the most distinguished person present, Guan Qingchang naturally sat in the central seat of honor, with Lu Shibing to his left.

Xiao Ming entered without even glancing at the humiliated Dong Father and Son, pulling Lu Lichun straight toward Guan Qingchang.

"Mr. Guan, how many times in your life have you heard the word ’scram’?"

Guan Qingchang’s pupils shrank, and he said sternly, "Xiao Ming, I advise you to stop when it’s appropriate."

"And what if I don’t?"

As a local boss who was almost at the top, when had Guan Qingchang ever suffered such humiliation?

However, he could bear the wrath of the Ye Family’s young master even less. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Grinding his teeth, he stood up and moved to the seat on the right.

Xiao Ming turned around to sit down, crossing his legs, and glanced at Lu Shibing to his left, "Scram!"

Lu Shibing’s eyes instantly widened, but he did not dare to utter an extra word, silently turning his wheelchair to leave.

He didn’t accept Xiao Ming, so he put his chips on Guan Qingchang, who stood with the Ye Family behind him, going so far as to expel Lu Lichun just to draw a clear line with Xiao Ming, which could be described as a last-ditch effort.

But at the end of the day, he also knew well that he simply wasn’t qualified to compete with Xiao Ming.

If you’re going to be a dog, you need to have the awareness of a dog.

Gesturing for Lu Lichun to sit on the left, Xiao Ming’s gaze then fell on the Dong Father and Son.

"Hurry up, don’t dawdle, I’ve got other things to do later!"

Dong Jingyi and Dong Chenghua looked at each other, their faces filled with the same humiliation and rage, and walked up to Xiao Ming like they were going to the execution rack, clenched their teeth, closed their eyes, and knelt down in unison.

"Ha! Worthy of being father and son, so in sync and connected!" Xiao Ming laughed and said, "Go ahead! Three kneelings and nine head-knockings, if you miss one, you start over."

Dong Jingyi and Dong Chenghua’s faces turned red as blood, quickly knocking their heads three times, then standing up, kneeling again, three heads; standing up again, kneeling down, three heads.

The members of the Lingnan Business Association in the room, even those who usually had conflicts with the Dong Father and Son, couldn’t help but feel a sense of "the hare’s death is the fox’s sorrow."

After all, Dong Jingyi was the vice-chairman of the Lingnan Business Association, being forced to kneel in the assembly hall by a newcomer, and if word got out, no one’s reputation would look good.

"What are you all standing around for like fools? There’s still one more leg to go."

After the Dong Father and Son finished kneeling, they stood up and remained still until Xiao Ming urged them on.

"Mr. Xiao," Guan Qingchang spoke up, "Given your unscrupulous behaviour of increasing the stakes at the last minute, we have significant doubts about your credibility.

So, to ensure that all conditions are met, you’ll need to sign the agreement first."

"I was wondering why two dogs would agree; turns out you were waiting for me here!"

Xiao Ming laughed and said, "What, you all think that as soon as I sign the agreement, you can deal with me without any worries?"

Guan Qingchang didn’t reply, but gestured to Guan Ruiming. After his nephew placed two copies of the agreement next to Xiao Ming and Lu Lichun, he said, "We have given you plenty of face, shown the utmost consideration.

If you still don’t appreciate it, you can leave now, but you’ll be responsible for the consequences."

Xiao Ming opened the agreement and glanced over it briefly, not noticing any trickery, then smacked his lips and said to Lu Lichun, "Sign it."

Lu Lichun naturally had no objections and picked up the pen to start writing her name.

Xiao Ming already had his hand on the pen when he suddenly slapped his forehead, "Almost forgot something important."

With that, he took out his phone from his pocket, dialed a number, and said, "It’s okay now."

Upon hearing this, Guan Qingchang’s eyes narrowed, and a strong unease began to stir in his heart.
