Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 223 The Stupidest Mistake_1

The shouting was in typical Korean, and when the score turned to 1:1, it was naturally nothing pleasant.

"You understand Korean?" Xiao Ming asked Ding Jianwei.

Ding Jianwei nodded, "I had to learn it on the fly once because of an urgent mission."

"Oh? You’ve carried out missions related to Korea?" Xiao Ming became interested and leaned in, "Tell me about it."

Ding Jianwei’s mouth curled into a half-smile, "If you tell me how you got the gambling ship’s captain to be so obedient, I’ll risk discipline and punishment to tell you what that mission was about."

"You, you’re such a drag."

Xiao Ming pursed his lips and stood up.

"Where are you going?" Ding Jianwei asked.

Pointing to a booth not far away, Xiao Ming said with a smile, "Luck doesn’t block my way. Keep drinking, I’m off to make some more money."

Ding Jianwei immediately set down her glass and followed.

For her, Xiao Ming was like a mystery novel, almost every page filled with surprising discoveries, all accompanied by even bigger secrets waiting to be revealed.

She wouldn’t miss this rare opportunity to observe him up close.

Upon reaching the booth, Xiao Ming didn’t say a word and kicked the back of the sofa.

The person on the sofa was jolted forward onto the table, knocking over drinks and fruit everywhere.

A few Koreans got up in a hurry, and seeing him, they all froze, their expressions angry, but none dared to make a sound.

The one knocked onto the table was Big Pancake Face. When he turned his head and saw Xiao Ming clearly, the veins on his forehead bulged, and he suppressed his fury, demanding in English, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Ming looked arrogant, "Same as before, if you don’t have the guts to duel with me, then all of you motherfuckers keep your mouths clean. If I hear any more shit coming from you, I’ll cut out your tongues!"

Big Pancake Face was so angry his neck turned red, and his small eyes, whether from staying up all night or something else, were bloodshot.

Giving Xiao Ming a silent, murderous look, he suddenly remembered something and scoffed, "Han Country’s soccer is trash; that’s a universally acknowledged fact.

Even a country constantly in turmoil can scrape together 11 players that you can’t beat, getting scolded is well deserved.

You, with nothing but violence, the angrier you get shows how much more insecure you are.

We, as the Upper Country that has spread culture to you, are naturally civilized people. We’ll forgive you this time. Get going quickly, to save yourself the embarrassment of crying in public when your team loses!"

After his words, he burst into loud laughter, and the other Koreans laughed even harder.

Xiao Ming slowly narrowed his eyes, waiting for them to finish laughing, then he asked coolly, "So you’re saying, you’re certain your team will win?"

Big Pancake Face nodded vigorously, "It’s inevitable."

"Good, do you dare to bet on it with me?"

A calculating look flashed in Big Pancake Face’s eyes, "Of course. But if it’s not enough money, forget it. We from the Upper Country don’t make a habit of bullying country bumpkins."

Xiao Ming raised his hand, and Candy immediately placed the room card in his palm.

"Two billion US dollars!"

Big Pancake Face was instantly dumbstruck.

As the son of a South Korean chaebol, his family was naturally incredibly wealthy with assets amounting to tens of billions.

Unfortunately, his family had too many mouths to feed, and he was the least favored one. Coming to play at the gambling ship, he brought just over twenty million US dollars, and he had already lost most of it to Xiao Ming.

Now he only had a few million left in his hands; even if he added everything his friends and companions had, it wouldn’t amount to twenty million max.

"What’s wrong? After all that talk of being from the Upper Country, turns out you’re the real country bumpkin!"

Xiao Ming sneered, "No guts and no money, no wonder anyone can boss you around like dogs.

I’ll warn you one last time: All of you motherfuckers shut up!

A bunch of disgusting bugs, you’re making me want to vomit my breakfast."

After speaking, he glanced at someone in the booth and turned to walk away.

"Stop!"

Big Pancake Face rasped, "Two hundred million US dollars, I’ll bet with you!"

Xiao Ming turned around, "Where did you get the money?"

"I will borrow it from the casino ship."

Xiao Ming glanced at Candy, and the bunny girl immediately nodded, "I’ll go apply for it right away."

After the girl left, Xiao Ming beckoned to someone inside the booth and commanded in a deep voice, "Come out!"

The person hesitated for a moment, apologized as he stood up, and followed Xiao Ming further away.

"Are you Korean?" Xiao Ming asked.

The person shook his head, "I am a Korean Tribe member from Han Country."

This detail wasn’t reflected in the related reports from his past life.

Thinking to himself, Xiao Ming said, "That’s quite rare, there aren’t many in the Korean Tribe with the surname Xue."

The man was none other than Zhuang Luonian’s male pet, the beautiful bunny boy Xue Yuan Shan.

"My father is Korean Tribe, my mother is not. Xue is my mother’s surname."

That made sense.

Xiao Ming nodded and then asked, "What’s your relationship with those people?"

A glint flashed in Xue Yuan Shan’s eyes as he looked at him suspiciously, "With Mr. Xiao’s understanding of me and the Zhuang Family, you shouldn’t be ignorant of my relationship with them."

Xiao Ming’s mind stirred, recalling a crime of the Zhuang Family he had read about in his previous life. One of the accusations was the importation of hundreds of thousands of tons of electronic waste.

And among the source countries for this electronic trash was South Korea.

With this realization, he slapped Xue Yuan Shan hard across the face.

"Is importing trash something to be proud of?" he said icily, "Xue Yuan Shan, this is the last time you disrespect me, or else, I’ll make sure Zhuang Luonian flays you alive!"

Xue Yuan Shan held his face and bowed his head, hiding the resentment and fear in his eyes from Xiao Ming.

"I’m, I’m sorry! It won’t happen again."

"How much is the Zhuang Family importing this time?" Xiao Ming lit a cigarette and asked.

"Not less than five hundred tons."

"When and where?"

"It hasn’t been decided yet."

Xiao Ming immediately turned and waved to Ding Jianwei. When she approached, he said, "Weren’t you just following along? Why hide so far away now?"

Ding Jianwei glanced at Xue Yuan Shan’s handsome face and said with a strange look, "Who knows if you had some private matter to discuss? I’m not into gossip."

"Ugh!" Xiao Ming rubbed the goosebumps on his arm, "If you disgust me like that again, believe it or not, I’ll smack you?

This is Xue Yuan Shan, Zhuang Luonian’s male pet. Don’t tell me you didn’t know."

Xue Yuan Shan showed a humiliated face but dared not retort.

Ding Jianwei let out an inexplicable sigh of relief and asked, "What did you call me for?"

"The Zhuang Family is about to import hundreds of tons of electronic waste, and this guy is the liaison. You’re the professional on what to do next."

Ding Jianwei thought for a moment and said, "The Zhuang Family is powerful. Just one case like this isn’t enough. They could easily throw out a scapegoat to take the fall."

"I didn’t ask you to take down the Zhuang Family," Xiao Ming replied with a cold smile. "The reason this family can swagger around Northern Dian is because of the old ties to some big shots from decades ago.

But such favors are finite, each use diminishes them a bit more.

To absolve a crime worth tens of millions will cost Old Zhuang a good chunk of those favors."

"Sigh! Offending you was truly the dumbest mistake Zhuang Wending made in his life."

Ding Jianwei shook her head, turned solemnly to Xue Yuan Shan, and said, "Security Bureau Special Investigation Department, Ding Jianwei. From now on, you report to me."

Xue Yuan Shan’s expression changed drastically.
