Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 28 Time’s Up_1

Xiao Ming had a smile on his face as he nodded, "Yes, it’s me."

"Heh, gutsy!"

The young man curled his lips, pulling out a butterfly knife from his pocket, quickly flicking it open to display a few tricks before flaunting the blade.

"I may lack everything but not money.

I’ll give you two million to let me slice you twice, and we’ll call it even."

"Two million isn’t enough. Even if you bankrupt yourself, it won’t settle things. You would need to add a ruined family and loss of life to the equation."

Xiao Ming spoke with such seriousness, as if stating an undeniable truth, leaving the young man stunned for a good moment before he came to his senses.

"Fuck! Are you still trying to act tough with me..."

He raised his hand to stab, but midway, he froze, his face showing a mix of astonishment and fear.

Because somehow, the knife was already in Xiao Ming’s hand, resting on the young man’s neck.

"Hey, Ming, Dachuan got injured, he’s in a bad mood, acting crazy. Don’t stoop to his level."

Shen Siyi came over just in "time" to smooth things over.

"Is that so?"

Xiao Ming chuckled, closed the knife, and placed it back in Zhang Dachuan’s shirt pocket, patting it gently.

"It’s understandable to be in a bad mood, and going crazy is not a big deal. But you’d better not casually claim you’re not short of money in the future.

After all, there are many people lacking money these days, some of whom are willing to trade their lives for it. I’m sure young master Zhang wouldn’t want to be the one exchanged, right?"

For the first time in his life, Zhang Dachuan discovered that someone smiling while talking could be very terrifying.

Not daring to respond, he nearly sprinted to the other side of the Lamborghini, shouting, "Attack! Get him for me! Take him down!"

As his words fell, four burly men resembling bodyguards emerged from the darkness behind the car.

Xiao Ming looked the other way, turning to Shen Siyi with a smile, "Why, are your brothers also feeling upset?"

Somehow, even though Shen Siyi’s side had the numerical advantage, and the bodyguards were all ex-special forces, he instinctively felt that if a fight broke out, Xiao Ming would undoubtedly be the victor.

Recalling what Yun Shi Yu had told him before coming here, she had said very seriously, "If the bookstore and the stamps were indeed a setup, then how do you explain Mengmeng stabbing someone?

Did he already know you definitely wouldn’t call the cops, wouldn’t expose him?

If so, then he remains the ’God’ who knows things before they happen."

Shen Siyi thought this made a lot of sense but without witnessing Xiao Ming’s miraculous abilities for himself, he couldn’t truly be at ease.

"What are you all doing? If you’re bored and just want to smoke and chat, go do it behind. Why are you trying to make your presence felt here? Are you the only ones with muscles?"

After shooing the bodyguards away, Shen Siyi handed Xiao Ming a cigarette and said with a laugh, "Ming, don’t be mad. It’s just that your methods are too mystical for those idiots to believe.

Show your divine prowess tonight, give them a taste of being slapped in the face, and they’ll naturally submit."

Xiao Ming glanced at him sidelong, drew close to light the cigarette, "Do you believe it?"

"Of course I..."

"Tell the truth."

"Uh... it’s just that everything’s too coincidental, and I... I’ve got my doubts, too."

"Do you think I’m a swindler?"

"Not me, it’s them saying it."

Xiao Ming snorted coldly, his gaze shifting to the other wealthy scions in front of the Ferrari.

"Initially, I didn’t even bother to pay attention to you all, but since Siyi is a pretty decent guy among the second-generation rich, one who has some sense, I’ll reluctantly give you guys a chance.

However, you need to understand that I’m not your daddy, I have no reason to indulge you, and you only get one chance.

Believe it or not, this is the closest opportunity you have to step out from your fathers’ shadows, maybe even surpassing them.

The offer won’t last!"

His words hung in the air, and the place fell silent. It took several seconds before there was an uproar, and the wealthy scions, along with their flashy girlfriends, burst into laughter.

"Fuck! Is this guy’s brain not working right?"

"Shen, be honest with us, did you bring this lunatic from a mental hospital to have some fun with us?"

"And he’s still talking about us surpassing our fathers. Who does he think he is, the bastard son of the richest man in the world?"

"Richest man my ass! Look at his outfit, probably everything he’s wearing all together isn’t worth as much as one pair of my chick’s stockings.

Hey kid, it’s easy to make money from us, no need for such pathetic scams.

For instance, right now, if you can stuff my girl’s silk stockings into your mouth, I’ll give you ten thousand. How about that?

The girls here can attest that I’m known for my generosity for miles around, hahaha..."

The scions kept up their jeering, their sarcasm reaching its peak, while Shen Siyi felt his face turning green. Xiao Ming, however, maintained his cheerful demeanor, unchanging.

He whispered something into Shen Siyi’s ear, and Shen’s eyes went wide, shocked yet excited, "That’s... that’s too thrilling!"

Xiao Ming shrugged nonchalantly, "Anyway, his mouth is already foul enough, a bit more won’t matter.

And even among drinking buddies, there are ranks. You’d be wise to stay as far away as possible from the kind particularly good at attracting trouble."

It was uncertain if Shen Siyi took the advice to heart, but he nodded and turned to signal to the others, "You guys, come here."

As his call ended, the four bodyguards who had stepped back once again appeared under the lights.

"Take your socks off, leave them in the car," he ordered.
