Chapter 715: Warned

CHAPTER 715

To say Ye Cheng was shocked was an understatement. How had things gone from him teasing her to the other way round?

“Ouch. I was looking forward to it,” Li Jing added.

He shook his head, snapping out of his reverie and poked her forehead. “What was your naughty brain concocting?”

“A way to milk you dry.” Her smile seemed heavenly, yet seductive in several ways. If not that he knew this lady well, he would have thought she was an evil seductress.

“No then. Since you are so eager, I am afraid we would only go after the lawsuit fight with Chairman Zhang.”

.....

“Oh, that is true. How is he by the way? Has he taken any actions yet?”

“None for now. The message I left him, gave him enough fright. Now I would have the lawsuit do more justice. If we have to rebribe the false witnesses he created. No.”

He shook his head and sat up, then helped her up as well. They both remained on the ground while his mind seemed to have travelled far off in thoughts.

“Those people would have some of these pieces of evidence looping around them. More importantly, some would be dirty thugs too. It would be easy to put two and two against them and have them denounce him. By the time I am done with Chairman Zhang, he would wish he never knew the name Ye Cheng.”

“Awwn, isn’t my hubby cute when he boasts, hahaa.” She laughed heartily at her joke. Reaching for his hand, Li Jing gently patted it and smiled some more.

“You know you have to be prepared very well for this battle against the Chairman,” she reminded.

“I know. Which is why I want to go all in.” She took in a deep breath and kept her smile. “Wait, are you scared?” His brows relaxed and he smiled at her. “I promise you, I would take care of you and not let harm come to you.”

“No need honey. My fears are not because of what might occur. I fear for you. You may not be as ruthless as he is.” He raised his brows again.

“You said?”

“I know what I am saying, Ye Cheng. No matter how ruthless you are, you won’t kill anyone. I also do not want you to get to that stage,” she explained.

“Oh that. I won’t kill but I cannot promise that if any harm comes to my loved ones,” he explained.

“You are not the problem. He is. I do not expect him to play fair.”

“Good. Neither do I? I know he would want to come at me big time, but I am prepared. I am waiting for him. Let him come, I would willfully hand him over to Fong Wei Ling. He would be more than happy to ensure his swift death.”

She pressed on his hands harder than before and instantly her facial expression changed. “This is serious.”

“Yes. He is gigging his own grave. Who am I not to help him reach there faster.” He reached up to her hair and ruffled it as though he was patting a child. “Keep calm my love. It would be alright.”

Sensing her fear of not losing him, he gave her a reassuring smile and pulled her body close to him.

“Worry not. All will be well.”

On the other hand, Li Chun had been bothered by Li Jing’s visit but that did not stop him from his activities as usual.

Once again, he got ready for his travelled and walked down the stairs to the living room. Immediately his driver saw him, he rushed forward and took the suitcase from him.

“Umm, where are the maids?” He asked his driver.

“And what are you going to use them for?” Ding Jiaying asked, stepping out from behind the door in the living room.

Without saying a word, he bid his driver leave to go without him and turned to face her. “Ding Jiaying, the way and manner your mouth runs these days, I may need to tutor it,” he threatened.

“And what are you going to do about it, huh? Runaway to meet your mistress again?” She attacked.

“If I do, I do not see how it affects you?” Li Chun taunted with a wry smile on his face.

“Why you! I would not let you leave this house today,” she walked off to the door and locked it with the key then kept it in her trouser pocket.

“Ding Jiaying, if I miss my flight, let me warn you now, you and your good for nothing daughter would leave my house for good.”

“What?!” Her eyes flared and she stomped her foot on the floor. “You should have just said you were eager to bring in that other woman. I do not blame you. I would kill you and her in this house should you try it.”

He shook his head at her. “Just the way you wanted to kill Jing-er?”

“Do not mention that lousy ungrateful child to me ever again.”

“I wouldn’t if you and Xiu-er stop interfering with her life. If by any chance she gets mad at you two and she imprisons you, mark my word, I would happily watch the weight of nagging taken off my back.”

With that, he turned around and went towards the kitchen. “I hope the key keeps you warm and calm in my absence cause you seem to be forgetting something.”

He shook his head at her. “There are more than one ways to way to leave this house. And that includes the lovely kitchen that I, prepared for you. Last warning, watch your words and ways. I have grown tired already.”

He walked off without saying anything further and left her to her rage.

There was a time he kept silent about her actions, but now more than ever things were already too much for him to handle and now he could not add her and her daughter’s useless behaviour to it.

She remained silent, while her chest rose and fell in high magnitude as she watched him leave. ‘Fine. Have it your way. Do not blame me for taking actions as I deem fit.’
