Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 433 The Child Without a Mother_1

"What are you doing? Daring to assault with a knife in broad daylight, is there no law anymore?"

Xiao Li behaved so bizarrely, even at this point, the young woman actually dared to raise a scene and reached out to grab his arm.

Xiao Li didn’t dodge, nor did he use force, so the knife left Liu Xudong’s mouth, but it also made a cut at the corner of his mouth, from which blood flowed freely.

"Fuck your mother!"

Liu Xudong flung his hand, delivering a heavy slap to the young woman, "Are you trying to get me killed?"

The other half of the young woman’s face swelled up, making it look quite symmetrical, more pleasing to the eye.

Perhaps spurred by the pain, Liu Xudong then glared fiercely at Xiao Ming, "I was unprepared today, I concede!

Kill me or cut me, just do as you please, but if you have the guts, leave your name behind. When I meet the King of Hell, I can at least make it clear who I died by."

"That’s a spirited thing to say, sounds like someone who’s seen the underworld."

Xiao Ming exhaled a puff of smoke casually, "My last name is Xiao, and I live on the top floor of this number one building."

Liu Xudong’s eyes suddenly widened, "You... You are Xiao Ming of Ruiye Holdings, Boss Xiao?"

As a top magnate of Longyin, Xiao Ming’s address was not a secret in certain circles, especially for his "neighbors" living here.

And in Liu Xudong’s eyes, this "neighbor" had more labels than just "wealthy."

Not to mention his quick consumption of the leading enterprises of Dabang and Qianshan within a mere few months, Bai Xuechao, the former boss of Jiangbei, was his lover; Miss Yun of the Yun Family of the Provincial City was his subordinate; even Zhou Jicang’s daughter was working for him.

Most critically, it was said that the main reason Yan Yongxing, the big shot of the Jiangnan District, went to prison was his foolish attempt to compete with Xiao Ming over Dabang’s shares.

Rumors on the streets said, crossing him could lead to the downfall of one’s family, and the best outcome for those who provoked him was death.

Without principles, devoid of morality, consuming people without spitting out the bones.

Liu Xudong instantly regretted so much he could feel his guts knotting up.

If only he had known, he wouldn’t have claimed all of Yan Yongxing’s assets as his own trying to gild himself; the best parts of the original Daxing Ship Services had nothing to do with him but were in the hands of Qingyuan Group’s subsidiary.

The person Qingyuan Group had picked to help out was Jiang Yonghan, who happened to be Xiao Ming’s father-in-law.

So, if Liu Xudong had to choose one person he least wanted to offend, that would undoubtedly be Xiao Ming.

"Boss Xiao, today, we were in the wrong, and I offer my apologies to you."

He pulled his wife into a bow and added, "It’s just that my son is not even ten years old, please, considering he doesn’t understand things, spare him this once. After we return, I’ll definitely discipline him strictly.

Of course, a mistake is a mistake: ’The fault of the son is the fault of the father.’ Whatever your requirement, please just say it."

Xiao Ming shook his head wearily, "I find that people like you seem unable to understand plain talk.

If you knew who I am, then you should understand how valuable my face is, and that I wouldn’t double-cross like you do, let alone stoop to the level of a child not even ten years old.

One last time: I want to ask your son a few questions.

If you disagree, that river outside is very deep, one more family of three won’t break the bank."

Liu Xudong turned pale, hesitated for a moment, and slowly placed his son on the ground.

"Husband, you can’t! Baby..."

"Shut up!" Liu Xudong backhanded her another slap on the face, "If not for you, would things have turned out like this?

Just wait, I’ll deal with you when we get home!"

After yelling, he put on a warm face and said to his son, "Good boy, go over to uncle, answer whatever uncle asks you. If you do well, daddy will buy you a toy."

Mischievous boys tend to be quite sensitive, and the little boy, apparently sensing Xiao Ming’s menace more than his mother, refused to go over, stubbornly shaking his head.

"Forget it, if he won’t come over, I’ll go to him."

Flicking away the half-smoked cigarette, Xiao Ming squatted in front of the little boy, smiling, "Hello there, little friend! What’s your name?"

Clinging tightly to his father’s thigh, the boy replied, "My name is Liu Zi’an."

"Well, Liu Zi’an, I’m going to ask you a few questions and I hope you can answer them honestly. Lying will be punished.

But since you’re just a kid, your parents will take the punishment instead.

Do you understand?"

The little boy looked up at his parents, then nodded, "I understand."

"Good. First question."

Xiao Ming pointed to Xiao Li and asked, "Where did this sister hit you?"

Liu Zi’an’s eyes darted around before he patted his right shoulder and said, "She hit me here."

Xiao Ming smiled, "Just the shoulder?"

"And the head. It hurt a lot."

Xiao Ming’s expression grew cold, "Li, the face!"

"Ahh—!"

The young woman suddenly clutched her face and screamed; blood quickly began seeping through her fingers, clearly a significant wound.

"Do you see?" Xiao Ming smiled again, speaking kindly to Liu Zi’an, "Because you lied, your mother received a punishment.

Her pretty face is gone, turning her into an ugly monster. Your father will dislike her, divorce her.

And you, you will soon be a child without a mother. Are you happy?"
