Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 24: The Dilemma of Life and Death_1

"Logically, with Ming’s face, it should be no problem,"

Siyi feigned difficulty, "but after all, she injured my brother, so if she just walks away, I can’t explain it. I hope Ming can understand."

"What kind of explanation does your brother want?" Xiao Ming asked.

"One million."

"Give me the account number," Xiao Ming immediately pulled out his phone.

Siyi was stunned.

The one million was a figure he blurted out on the spur of the moment, simply to test Xiao Ming. If Xiao Ming was unwilling to pay, then he would definitely be a fraudster.

But now, Xiao Ming’s lack of hesitation threw him off.

Having just been lambasted by Yun Shi Yu over the phone, Siyi wasn’t sure whether to trust Miss Yun’s judgment or his fair-weather friends’ analysis.

He found himself in a dilemma.

"The account!"

Xiao Ming’s voice snapped Siyi back to reality and sparked a thought in his mind, so he took out his bank card and passed it over, saying, "Besides the money, my brother also wants to meet with Ming."

Xiao Ming, while transferring money on his phone, didn’t even look up: "I’m not interested."

Siyi’s face twitched, and he said with a half-joking smile, "Ming, do me a favor, meet with him! He says if you really are the ’God’ I described, he will give you the money back."

"I said, I’m not interested."

After the transfer, Xiao Ming handed the bank card back, "Now, can we go?"

"Ming, just go," Siyi persisted, "It’s fun at Long Mang Mountain tomorrow night. It would be nice to play together!"

At the mention of "Long Mang Mountain," Xiao Ming guessed Siyi’s intention. After a moment of thought, he nodded, "All right! Then I’ll give you face one last time."

Siyi finally smiled happily, stepped aside, and said, "Tomorrow night at 11:50, at the parking lot below Long Mang Mountain, don’t be late!"

"Shen, are we really letting that bastard go just like that?"

Watching Xiao Ming leave in Bai Xuechao’s car, the spoiled brat who almost had his hand broken asked indignantly.

"Yeah, Shen, someone dares to act tougher than us in Longyin’s turf. Just thinking about it pisses me off. We can’t let him off so easily!"

"Shen, you’ve got to believe us, he’s definitely a scammer! He..."

"Have the guts to say that to Yu’s face."

Siyi interrupted, "Just now on the phone, Yu sternly warned me, saying she’s vouching for him, and anyone who harms him is disrespecting Miss Yun of the Yun Family."

The upstarts looked at each other, and someone asked, "So what do we do?"

"Hmph!" Siyi looked coldly in the direction Xiao Ming had left, "Whether he’s a mule or a horse, we’ll see when we take him out for a stroll.

The car race at Long Mang Mountain tomorrow is a good opportunity.

If he can correctly predict the winner, it’ll prove he really is an amazing ’God’, and we’ll support and revere him from then on.

Otherwise, the result will make Yu understand, and naturally, she won’t continue to protect him.

Then, hmph, I’ll make life a living hell for him!"

"Bai, I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused."

In the car, Gu Xiangmeng bowed her head and apologized to Bai Xuechao.

"I’m not the one being troubled," Bai Xuechao replied irritably, glancing at Xiao Ming in the back seat. "But speaking of which, why did you hurt someone? Did Mr. Zhang offend you?"

"I don’t know who Mr. Zhang is."

"So you flew into a rage and stabbed him with a knife?"

Gu Xiangmeng hung her head and remained silent.

"You..."

"Don’t ask anymore, just assume she went crazy for a moment," Xiao Ming spoke with his eyes closed.

Gu Xiangmeng turned from the front passenger seat, "When are you going to tell me who killed my sister?"

Xiao Ming shook his head, "Right now, you have no money or power; even if I told you who it was, seeking revenge would just mean getting yourself killed.

And don’t forget, I just spent a million to save you. Until you’ve paid that off, you don’t even have the right to die."

"Then... then what exactly do you want me to do?"

Upon hearing that, Bai Xuechao glanced at the rear-view mirror.

Normally, when a man spends so much money on a strange girl, nine out of ten times it’s for her body.

Gu Xiangmeng, not yet twenty years old, with looks and figure to match, was definitely worth that price.

However, Bai Xuechao was more curious about Xiao Ming’s answer.

Because her instincts told her this man must be different.

But what Xiao Ming did next made her think she had still underestimated the situation.

Xiao Ming took Gu Xiangmeng’s phone and after a few moments, said, "I’ve transferred fifty thousand to you, find a place to stay first.

For the next six months, you have two tasks: first, attend night school to get an adult diploma, the major is up to you; second, find a training institute and learn vocal performance."

Gu Xiangmeng was dumbfounded.

Her initial thought, like Bai Xuechao’s, was that Xiao Ming wanted to keep her for himself.

She didn’t care about this, willing to do anything to avenge her sister.

Besides, although this man didn’t seem to have a good temper, she did not particularly dislike him. Compared to the sisters being kept at the Model Company, she definitely hit the jackpot.

But she never expected Xiao Ming to give such an answer.

"You... you spent a million to save me, just to make me go to school?"

"No, it’s to make you obediently go to school, the emphasis is on ’obedient’.

Whatever I tell you to do, you must do it, understand?"

"Then why study vocal performance?"
