Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 387: We Have a Shotgun _1

"Invite the esteemed guest in, serve the finest tea, and give my sincerest apologies on my behalf!"

After instructing Qingfeng, Xiao Ming got out of bed and headed for the bathroom.

"Are you going to freshen up?" Ding Jianwei asked, catching up to him.

"Of course," Xiao Ming said while unbuttoning his pajamas, "How could I meet distinguished guests with messy hair and a dirty face?"

"Making them wait for you to bathe and dress isn’t rude?"

Xiao Ming chuckled, "If you don’t plan on helping me wash up, please close the door, thank you!"

On a normal day, Ding Jianwei would have gone in without hesitation, but with the sudden visit of "Saint", even if there was a ninety percent chance it was a body double, it still left her feeling incredibly incredulous and utterly confused.

Furukawa Shizuka entered the bedroom and saw her standing at the bathroom door in a daze, then said, "If you want to go in, just go in. He certainly won’t reject you."

"Have you been in?" Jianwei blurted out.

Furukawa Shizuka raised an eyebrow and then sneered contemptuously, "I really find it hard to believe that ’The Flower of Secret Agents’ spoken of by my Lingnan colleagues is standing right here before me.

Love is a spy’s greatest enemy.

Ding Jianwei, I advise you to stay away from Xiao Ming.

He’s no different from a slow-acting poison to you, and the mortality rate is quite high."

A light flashed rapidly in Ding Jianwei’s eyes, her smile enigmatic, "You must have told yourself that often enough, right?"

"Too bad, it’s apt for you but useless for me.

Because I’m not a spy."

Furukawa Shizuka’s face stiffened, she sat down at the dressing table and began to put on makeup.

"I... I’m not one anymore either."

Her voice was low, but Ding Jianwei heard it and internally sighed.

Xiao Ming is a poison, cutting to the quick.

Not only does he intoxicate people, but he also makes them addicted, and once you’ve had a taste, be prepared to be torn apart if you want to quit.

Soon, Xiao Ming’s voice came from the bathroom, "Shizuka, grab me a new pair of underwear."

Furukawa Shizuka stood up with a smile and walked into an adjacent walk-in closet, returning shortly after with a pair of underwear for him.

After Xiao Ming changed and came out, he was met with Ding Jianwei’s piercing gaze.

"Why did you let her fetch it?"

"If not her, then who?" Xiao Ming asked, genuinely puzzled, "Do you know where I keep my underwear?"

Ding Jianwei stalled, then, irritated and angry, kicked him, "Asshole! Do you have any understanding of propriety? Always complaining about the headache of so many women around you, I think you actually enjoy it!"

"You know, there’s some truth to that."

Pinch her face, Xiao Ming then took the shirt from Furukawa Shizuka and began to dress.

Although Furukawa Shizuka was rebellious by nature, she came from a traditional family and was naturally trained in the full suite of Yamato Nadeshiko skills.

Even Xiao Ming had to admit that in terms of taking care of a man, the Japanese women were second to none.

Just in a couple of days, he was already considering making Furukawa Shizuka his maid at home.

Of course, it was just a thought. Doing so would surely set his house on fire sooner or later.

After meticulously smoothing out the last wrinkle on his pants, Furukawa Shizuka stood up and asked, "Sir, do you need me to accompany you?"

"Don’t try to act cute. If you anger the big sister upstairs, I won’t help you," Xiao Ming said with a laugh.

He turned towards Ding Jianwei, "I’m sorry to trouble you to wait a bit longer. If you’re tired, you can take a nap. Once I’ve sent off Saint, I’ll get in touch with Fang Muye."

Ding Jianwei opened her mouth to speak, then shook her head, "Whatever I say, you won’t listen, so I’ll save my breath. I just hope that before you make any decisions, think more about the people around you and don’t act on a whim."

"Don’t worry! As long as you’re good, I’ll have no restraints."

After kissing Ding Jianwei’s forehead, Xiao Ming left the bedroom.

"Congratulations. As the first woman other than Jiang Xue to receive a kiss from him, Commandant Ding, what are your feelings at this moment?" Furukawa Shizuka asked.

Ding Jianwei waved her hand in front of her nose, "My feeling is that you should go take another bath, the sour smell is too strong."

"Mr. Cui, it’s an honor to meet you!" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Exiting the room, Xiao Ming enthusiastically called out, "I’m naturally lazy, so please forgive any negligence!"

A man stood up from the living room sofa, in his forties, neither tall nor short, with ordinary features, and small but deep and dark eyes that made him seem warm and charming when he smiled.

Just from his appearance, one could easily find him "very charismatic."

"Mr. Xiao is too kind."

Shaking Xiao Ming’s extended hand, Cui Zhibo said, "It is I who have taken the liberty to visit. For Mr. Xiao not to have thrown me out already is quite magnanimous."

"Oh, Mr. Cui, you’re wrong. I’ve long admired you from afar, and to be this close is a great honor, how could I possibly mind any sudden intrusions?

Even if you came in the middle of the night, I’d joyfully serve wine and warmly welcome you!"

Cui Zhibo’s gaze shifted slightly, "In the middle of the night? Isn’t Mr. Xiao afraid that the one knocking might be a ghost?"

"It depends on whether it’s a male ghost or a female ghost.

If a male ghost comes knocking, I have a hunting shotgun."

"And a female ghost?"

"I still have the shotgun!"

Cui Zhibo paused for a moment then said, "In that case, it may be better for me to visit during the day."

"Aren’t saints impervious to knives and guns? You’re also afraid of a hunting shotgun?"

"Even if I am impervious to swords and guns, I’m still cautious of Mr. Xiao’s second shot."

Having said that, both men burst into hearty laughter.
