Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 384 One Sheep, Two Sheep_1

The next morning, Xiao Ming was in a drowsy sleep when he suddenly felt someone by the bed. He opened his eyes to find a cleaner.

What’s going on?

To actually let a cleaner into the bedroom so casually, Qingfeng and Mingyue really need to be disciplined.

Muttering to himself and just about to call out, he suddenly felt alarm bells going off in his head, snapped awake, and took a closer look; that wasn’t any cleaner—it was Ding Jianwei wearing a cleaner’s uniform.

"Uh... Boss lady, are you trying to seduce me with a uniform?"

Xiao Ming squeezed out a smile brighter than sunshine, "Then I suggest you try a maid outfit next time.

After all, there aren’t many men who’d be turned on by a cleaning lady, but they’re definitely out there."

Ding Jianwei kept a straight face without speaking; instead, a coy moan resonated from his arms: "Sir, don’t make noise, let’s sleep a little more."

Xiao Ming broke into a sweat and quickly extended his arm out of the blanket to show he was innocent: "I’m wearing pajamas!"

"Really, can’t we talk outside?"

Furukawa Shizuka supported herself out of his embrace, and the sheet slid down her smooth back, revealing everything.

Xiao Ming could swear on his life that the woman was definitely awake.

She was doing it on purpose!

Looking at Ding Jianwei’s makeup-free, judge-like face, Xiao Ming spread his arms wide open and resignedly said like a dead dog, "Just finish me off, you two!"

"Good morning, Miss Ding. You two chat, I’m going to take a shower."

Furukawa Shizuka left a flirtatious kiss on Xiao Ming’s face, then got out of bed and confidently entered the bathroom.

All of a sudden, Ding Jianwei was no longer angry, sat down by the bed, lit a cigarette from the nightstand, took a drag, then placed it in Xiao Ming’s mouth.

"To find a compliant aide, you sure are willing to go all out."

Xiao Ming exhaled smoke: "I wish I was going all out, at least then I’d have something to enjoy."

Ding Jianwei took the cigarette back and casually smacked his forehead, "Do you really want to enjoy it?"

Xiao Ming looked at her sidelong, "Boss lady, I’m just an informant, after all; you don’t manage my private life, right?"

Ding Jianwei sighed, "That’s exactly the trouble with you. You think you make it abundantly clear that you reject women, yet you always leave room for hope, you know?

At this time, you should be telling me, ’How come you’re more controlling than my wife?’"

Xiao Ming scratched his head, "Why would I hurt you on purpose?"

Ding Jianwei gave a gentle smile, glanced at the bathroom door, and then whispered with a lowered voice, "The sound of running water hasn’t changed."

"No problem, you say what you need to say. Trust without doubt, and don’t use if you doubt. I dared to sleep in the same bed with her, still keeping my guard up would be too awkward."

"Those not of our kind, must have a different heart."

Xiao Ming couldn’t help but burst out laughing and teased, "My boss lady, even if you’re so jealous you’ve lost your reason, you don’t need to use such a poor excuse, right?

How about I stay the night, I promise I won’t do a thing."

Ding Jianwei smacked him again, "Then why the hell would I stay?"

Xiao Ming laughed heartily.

Ding Jianwei was just like that; as long as it didn’t involve a mission, she would speak her mind without hiding anything, straightforward and adorable.

"Stop messing around, let’s talk business." After pushing the cigarette back into Xiao Ming’s mouth, she asked, "Did you arrange to meet Saint?"

Xiao Ming raised an eyebrow, "How did you know? I was planning to notify you after I had a solid confirmation."

"So it’s true. Who told you to do this?"

Ding Jianwei suddenly turned furious, leaning over to grab his collar, which made him hurriedly remove the cigarette from his mouth.

"Look at you, getting angry out of the blue, what, you here to flex your leadership muscles on me?

Plus, we had an agreement; I handle things, and you wait quietly as backup until notified. How come you’ve changed your tune just one day later?

Comrade Ding Jianwei, it’s a big taboo to change orders from morning to evening for a soldier out on a mission!"

Xiao Ming spoke earnestly, yet Ding Jianwei, unlike before, was not amused by his banter and seemed to get even more irritated.

"Do you have any idea what it means to meet with Saint?"

"It means I’m definitely going to join Red Lotus Society, or else I’ll have no peace hereafter.

Hey, what do you think I should ask Saint for as a title?

Bodhisattva sounds too wimpy. Arhat is too low level, not fitting for this lord’s prestige..."

"Shut your mouth!"

Ding Jianwei growled through gritted teeth, "Xiao Ming, what the hell are you up to?

Your career is on the rise; your wife is about to give birth, taking such risks with your life, is that fair to her and all the people who have pinned their hopes and dreams on you?"

Xiao Ming gave a wry smile, "My boss lady, please calm down first, alright?

I was bound to join Infinite Society anyway, the danger was already there.

A single sheep is herded, and two are driven, what difference does it make if I join Red Lotus Society as well?"

"It’s different," Ding Jianwei shook her head, "Infinite Society is a purely criminal organization, mainly operating abroad, no matter what you want to do, I can do my best to support you from behind.

But Red Lotus Society is different; a slight misstep could lead to taboo, and I worry that in the end, a single undercover agent or informant won’t be able to save you."
