Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 245 The Position of the Disabled is Too Low_1

Chapter 245: Chapter 245 The Position of the Disabled is Too Low_1

A moment later, Lu Shijun walked out from the memorial hall, followed by four women—one old and three young—all visibly Lu Family’s servants from their attire.

"Go. Kneel before Tinglan and daughter and apologize," Miao Yue’e commanded indifferently.

The four of them, as if scalded, cautiously stepped over the bloodstains and knelt two meters in front of Xiao Ming, trembling like sieves.

"Please..."

"Wait."

Xiao Ming raised his hand to stop them, "Firstly, what you need is punishment, not an apology, so just shut up.

Secondly, is it just the four of you?"

"Mr. Xiao thinks the old lady would deceive you?" Miao Yue’e asked in a heavy voice.

"Madam exaggerates," Xiao Ming smiled, "Given your status, of course, you wouldn’t resort to tricks over such matters. Even for Mr. Lu Shibing who wanted to bury me alive, I wouldn’t suspect him.

However, since it was your second son, who mistakes weakness for kindness, that brought these people out, I would find it insulting to you and the Lu Clan if I took their word for it immediately."

Miao Yue’e turned her face, "Shijun?"

Lu Shijun looked troubled for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "Mother, there are two more... they..."

"Come out!"

With a fierce shout from Miao Yue’e, another old and young pair walked out from the memorial hall, both dressed extravagantly and looking somewhat alike, obviously a mother and daughter.

"Shijun..."

"Brother-in-law..."

The two huddled together, looking pleadingly at Lu Shijun with eyes full of entreaty.

Lu Shijun bit his teeth and took a step forward, "Mr. Xiao, they..."

"It is known to all that due to the old lady’s strict command, Mr. Lu didn’t remarry, so they have nothing to do with you."

Xiao Ming smiled with contempt, "However, being able to luxuriously keep a woman’s mother and sister in the house, such a ’good’ man is indeed rare in this world!

Thank heavens Madam Tinglan divorced you. I can’t even imagine what an unhappy life Mengmeng would have had if she were raised by a father as stupid as a pig."

Lu Shijun’s face turned red with anger, and he finally couldn’t hold back and said angrily, "Mr. Xiao, since you appeared, I have always treated you with courtesy, on what ground do you..."

"Because you should!"

Xiao Ming interrupted him again, "Because you are Mengmeng’s biological father, yet you have not fulfilled even a fraction of a father’s responsibilities.

I just met her for the first time this morning, a little more than a stranger to her.

And when she was humiliated, the one who helped her vent her anger by causing a bloodbath and breaking dozens of people’s limbs was me, this half-stranger.

As a father, if you had even a shred of male dignity, you would be tucking your head in like a turtle right now—where do you get the face to question me?

Are you worthy?"

Lu Shijun’s face turned from red to green to white and then back to red, swelling with anger as he exclaimed loudly, "She is my daughter, I’ll do what I want with her, even if it means throwing her down a well to drown her—what’s it to you?"

Xiao Ming slowly narrowed his eyes, "Very good! Even though it’s nonsense, at least you’re trying to sound like a man.

Li, hand him the gun."

Xiao Li extended the knife tip to a bodyguard’s chest on the ground, flicked it, and a handgun flew toward Lu Shijun.

Lu Shijun fumbled to catch it, his face full of confusion.

Xiao Ming raised a foot, kicking the woman in front of him down the steps of the memorial hall.

"Wife, sister-in-law, and mother-in-law—pick one, fire the gun. It doesn’t matter where you hit, as long as there’s blood, your sins are cleared."

As these words were uttered, Miao Yue’e’s brows instantly shot up, but moments later they slowly relaxed again, her eyes looking inward as she remained silent.

"You... this..." Lu Shijun held the gun, looking at Xiao Ming as if he were insane, "This is impossible! I would never shoot to harm them."

"Just a friendly reminder," Xiao Ming said indifferently, "If you don’t fire the gun, the girl by my side will draw her knife.

Consider what’s more important. I’m giving you one minute to think it over and make your decision."

Lu Shijun froze, his hand holding the gun beginning to tremble as his little aunt and mother-in-law, already in tears, desperately shook their heads at him, their gazes occasionally darting to his sister and daughter at the bottom of the steps.

"You have forty seconds left." Xiao Ming spoke again, "Look, they have already made the choice for you.

The woman’s face is already a mess, and even if she was once as beautiful as a celestial being, now she’s nothing but a fleeting cloud.

You could be so cruel to your own biological daughter, so there surely isn’t much to regret.

One shot, then cast her out of the Lu Family, let her fend for herself, and just keep the son by your side."

"Don’t!"

The woman, who had been silent all along, suddenly scrambled up, clutching at the staircase and lifting her mangled face to plead, "Shijun, I’m begging you, don’t take my baby away from me.

I won’t boss you around anymore, I’ll be your beast of burden, and if my presence shames you, you can find a little house to lock me away in, but I’m begging you to let me stay with my son.

Please..."

The trembling in Lu Shijun’s hands had already spread throughout his body, his face a portrait of turmoil and struggle, unable to pull the trigger.

Xiao Ming glanced at his watch, just as he was about to speak again, Gu Tinglan’s voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Mr. Xiao, thank you for everything you have done for Tinglan and daughter, even if this is the end, Tinglan has nothing to repay you with."

Xiao Ming turned around, "You want to plead for the woman who took away your husband?"

"What husband, I haven’t cared for a long time, but this matter is after all unclean, and you are a good person who should not be tainted."

Xiao Ming laughed ruefully, sighing, "No wonder you fell in love and married Lu Shijun back then, turns out you’re the same kind of person.

Fortunately, timidity isn’t too incompatible with a woman, it’s just a pity for Mengmeng, who will surely be bullied by men when she grows up!"

Shaking his head, he raised his voice to Miao Yue’e, "Madam, the die is cast, and the young one is beyond my help. It’s up to you to teach your son, I’ll just oversee the punishment."

Miao Yue’e glanced at her second son with profound disappointment, sighed softly, and said, "Every person has their own fate. Shijun already has both a son and a daughter, so more teaching is pointless.

Mr. Xiao, your concern is noted, and this old woman thanks you here and now."

Lu Shijun looked bewildered, not understanding what was happening, but he could tell he no longer needed to choose someone to shoot at, and he immediately breathed a deep sigh of relief.

However, Gu Tinglan had reacted. The reason Xiao Ming insisted on forcing Lu Shijun to shoot was to ignite his anger and vitality, to let him experience what it means to be a man.

Unfortunately, Lu Shijun was like mud that couldn’t be wall-supported, and she was weak enough to speak out to stop him.

This left her not only full of regret but also prompted her to deeply contemplate what Xiao Ming had just said.

She had always thought of herself as understanding and kind, but she didn’t realize that her timidity hurt others, and if her daughter were raised only by her, she would inevitably become a person easily bullied, and how could she ever find happiness?

"Madam is too polite," Xiao Ming said, "It was just a small experiment, after all. He is Mengmeng’s father, and blood ties cannot be changed.

It seems now that their fate ends here.

From this day forward, Gu Zhimeng will have no further connection with Lu Shijun or the Lu Family. Can you accept that, Madam?"

"Audacious!"

Lu Shibing, who was in the wheelchair, suddenly spoke sharply, "She is of Lu blood, alive she is a person of the Lu Family, dead she will be a ghost of the Lu Family. It’s decreed by heaven, no one can change that!"

"Is that so?" Xiao Ming’s mouth curled coldly, "Li, his disabled state is too low."

Before the words fell, Xiao Li became a streak of silver light, shooting towards Lu Shibing at high speed.fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
