Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 296 Disturbed My Good Mood_1
Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Disturbed My Good Mood_1
Lu Lichun never liked the Lu Family, not once.
There were many things there, but one was conspicuously missing—human warmth.
Her ability to engage in something like keeping a gigolo was proof enough of her intensely rich emotions; the emotionless Lu Family naturally was a place she couldn’t wait to escape from.
Therefore, when she heard she had been expelled from the family, she never imagined she would actually feel sad.
"Sir," she said slowly, turning her face and blinking away a tear, looking lost, "I...I don’t have a home anymore."
"Being silly, aren’t you?"
Xiao Ming wrapped his arm around her waist, his smile tender, "My daughter calls you ’Auntie.’"
Lu Lichun’s delicate body trembled, her gaze flickered for a moment, and allure spread across her face like ripples on the water.
"I don’t want to hear her call me ’Auntie.’"
"What do you want to hear then?"
"Auntie Mom."
Xiao Ming immediately let go of her, saying irritably, "The audacity of you to boss me around!"
But Lu Lichun chuckled and snuggled up to him, stubbornly saying, "What’s said is like water poured out, too late. You won’t be able to shake me off for the rest of your life anyway!"
Seeing them not only ignoring him but also getting affectionate with each other, Dong Chenghua couldn’t help but clench his fists in anger and curse, "You haven’t even gotten a divorce certificate yet, and here you are, flirting with a reprobate in public. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Lu Lichun, you truly are a shameless slut..."
A foot struck his abdomen, sending him retreating several steps, crashing into a table and causing tea bowls to drop and shatter to pieces on the ground.
"Doesn’t anyone care about this?"
Xiao Ming’s gaze swept across the crowd in the hall, finally resting on Dong Jingyi, who was sitting at the round table furthest inside.
"Is this place a business association or a kennel? Letting the animals bite and bark wildly—if it doesn’t scare people, it’s still a public nuisance, don’t you understand?"
Bang!
Dong Jingyi slammed his palm on the table, "Xiao Ming, how dare you run wild in our association! Do you really think the Lingnan Business Association is made of mud?
Men!"
Rustle rustle rustle...
A dozen security guards burst out from both sides of the door, each wielding a baton, looking fierce.
Xiao Ming laughed, "Wow, you were all prepared, huh!
Too bad old man Dong has no class. You could at least have given a signal like smashing a cup to be a bit more stylish. What’s with just shouting out—that’s too graceless."
Dong Chenghua had just managed to get up, clutching his belly and venomously said, "You want elegance? I’ll make sure you stay ’elegant’ for the rest of your life!
Get him!
Break both his legs!"
The security guards immediately roared and charged towards them.
Lu Lichun, for some reason, turned around and firmly embraced Xiao Ming, her back against the oncoming security guards. She closed her eyes and shuddered.
Thump thump thump thump...
The sound of flesh being struck heavily rang out, each impact making Lu Lichun shudder involuntarily, but she didn’t feel a hint of the expected pain.
Feeling puzzled, she heard Xiao Ming’s voice above her head, "Are you afraid I’ll run away? Or are you trying to take advantage of the situation?"
Lu Lichun opened her eyes, turned back, and immediately covered her mouth in surprise.
The security guards, previously menacing, now lay on the ground, unable to move, their condition unknown.
In their place stood a ponytailed girl holding a cylinder, standing outside the door, her face expressionless, emanating a chilling aura.
Having witnessed the scene of bloodshed in the Lu Family, Lu Lichun naturally recognized Xiao Li, but when she was receiving Xiao Ming, she clearly didn’t see this girl.
At this moment, from inside the nearby Moon Gate, three people appeared: two walking and one in a wheelchair. They were none other than Guan Qingchang, Guan Ruiming, his nephew, and the current acting Family Head of the Lu Family, Lu Shibing.
Seeing her husband, Lu Lichun instinctively wanted to release the hand wrapped around Xiao Ming’s waist from behind, but then she gritted her teeth and held on even tighter.
Knowing she was defying her husband and also showing her loyalty to him, Xiao Ming, after a moment’s hesitation, didn’t push her away, but instead patted her on the shoulder.
"Could you switch to holding my arm? I can’t talk with you holding me like this."
Immediately, the tension that had risen upon her husband’s arrival dissipated, and Lu Lichun smiled sweetly, hopping to his side and embracing his arm.
And truth be told, a woman in her thirties suddenly exhibiting the charm of a young girl had its own unique allure.
As the three men approached and saw the closeness between Lu Lichun and Xiao Ming, Guan Qingchang’s eyes flashed coldly, but his expression remained unchanged. On the contrary, Guan Ruiming was staring furiously with gritted teeth.
As for Lu Shibing, his face was a complex mix of hesitation, rage, and hatred.
"Mr. Xiao, do you intend to keep people from entering?"
Since Xiao Li was still standing at the main entrance without any intention of making way, Guan Qingchang asked.
"Oh, I apologize," Xiao Ming said with a smile, "If you want to enter, please do. I’m leaving now."
"Leaving? The contract hasn’t been signed yet, where do you plan to go?" Guan Ruiming asked.
"I’ve changed my mind, no longer interested in exchanging stocks with Wanhai."
Guan Qingchang’s face darkened, "Xiao Ming, don’t say I didn’t warn you, going back on your word at this time can lead to serious trouble!"
Xiao Ming’s smile grew even stronger, "Sure enough, the name Ye Jin’an, you revealed it to Chun on purpose, didn’t you?"
Lu Lichun was slightly startled, suddenly worried.
Guan Qingchang sneered, "You’re very clever. Since you’ve guessed it, you should realize offending that man is something not even the gods can save you from."
Xiao Ming shrugged, "I came here with sincerity, but here I’ve been bothered by the ceaseless barking of two dogs, seriously disturbing my good mood.
If I can’t see the dogs’ master discipline them, then let me witness the skills of that man you’ve mentioned.
Farewell!"
With that, he walked out the threshold with Lu Lichun by his side.
Guan Qingchang frowned slightly, displeased, and shot Guan Ruiming a disapproving look, "Mr. Xiao, why let a little issue upset you so much?"
Speaking of little issues, it reminds me of something else," Xiao Ming said, turning back to look at Dong Father and Son inside the room, "Old Dong once swore in front of me that if my company opened, he would kneel down and apologize to me.
I too had said I would personally visit the headquarters of the Lingnan Business Association to witness his kneeling.
Well, there’s no time like the present, let’s do it today!
If you want me to sign the contract, Dong Father and Son, the two dogs, must kowtow to me three times. Otherwise, we have nothing to talk about."
"Xiao Ming, I warn you not to be too arrogant; careful, or you might not even know how you died!" Guan Ruiming shouted angrily.
It was, unfortunately, his own autonomous decision to let Dong Father and Son rough up Xiao Ming first.
As it stood, it was clearly a complication and had annoyed his uncle Guan Qingchang. If he made those obedient to him, Dong Father and Son, kneel now, then who would ever work diligently for him again?
"Mr. Guan, did you hear that? Your nephew is threatening me, making me even less happy," Xiao Ming said, casually cleaning his ear, "So, the terms for signing the contract just increased.
In addition to kowtowing three times, the younger dog will personally have to break the old dog’s leg!
If you don’t agree within three minutes, just have Ye Jin’an come find me directly."
After speaking, he sat down with Lu Lichun on the railings of the corridor, whispering and chuckling softly.
Through all of it, he completely ignored Lu Shibing in the wheelchair.
