His implication was that mounting such a large operation for a woman was a bit too much, yet he didn’t dare to say it outright.
“Did I do it wrong?” The man’s voice was colder than moonlight seeping through.
Chilled to the bone, the Gao family members could hardly muster a smile as they nodded and bent over backwards apologizing, “It’s our son who was in the wrong.”
Li Shengxiao’s thin lips brushed together, “Then let’s just cripple that wrong-doing leg of his.”
Then let’s just cripple that wrong-doing leg of his!
The entire place fell as silent as death.
Madame Gao only saw two men in black approach emotionlessly, then they dragged out Gao Kai, who had been hiding behind her, like hauling a pig.
“Mom, mom, save me! Mom!”
He reached out his hands to grab Madame Gao, but it was too late. The men moved with swift brutality, one pressing him to the ground like a dead dog, while the other picked up the large marble ashtray from the coffee table, raising it above his head, and smashed it harshly onto his kneecap.
“Agh!”
Screams like that of a slaughtered pig echoed through the villa.
Scared nearly to the point of fainting, Madame Gao’s maternal instincts drove her to throw herself onto the person screaming on the ground, wailing with tears streaming down her face, “No! Please, don’t hit him.”
“Husband, husband, say something, will you!”
Director Gao had already turned ashen, his face cycling through shades of green, white, and purple. No matter how much he dreaded the man before him, he couldn’t stand the wailing of his wife and son. With a livid face and through gritted teeth, he said, “Mr. Li, you’re taking it too far. It’s just a woman after all! Is it necessary?”
Li Shengxiao’s eyes reflected the image of the girl in his embrace, covered in blood yet silent, then looking back at him, his eyes narrowed with a sharp and deadly aura, “The woman you’re referring to is mine, Li Shengxiao’s woman! The only one!”
—The woman you’re referring to is mine, Li Shengxiao’s woman, the only one!
Director Gao suddenly went stiff.
Before he could fully digest the meaning of these words, people from the prosecutor’s office approached him with a notebook, going strictly by the book, “Gao Jianguo, right? We have found evidence of your involvement in bribery, please come with us to the prosecutor’s office for an inquiry.”
The prosecutor’s office…
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, I…” Director Gao’s legs went weak as he was forcibly handcuffed.
Madame Gao hadn’t anticipated her home turning into this state in the blink of an eye. While sobbing bitterly and flustered about how to protect her own man, she didn’t dare to move away, fearful of her son being hit again. Just when she was most bewildered and helpless, her cellphone suddenly rang.
She took out the phone while crying, and upon seeing the caller ID, her eyes suddenly brightened as she hurriedly answered, “Hello, dad.” Indeed, she could still ask for help from her parents’ family.
“Dad, something happened at home…”
Before she could finish, roaring curses came from the other end of the phone, “You screw-up, what has Gao Kai done! Do you know what happened to the company? The Li Group suddenly acquired our company; we’re bankrupt! Where’s Jianguo? Get him on the phone now. I’ve been trying to contact Mr. Li from the Li Group but to no avail. Ask him if he has any way.”
Madame Gao felt her plea for help getting stuck in her throat, almost passing out as her vision darkened, “I…
She didn’t know how to explain to her family.
The person on the other end was urging her, “Hurry up and pass the phone to
Jianguo. Is Jianguo not at home?”
Madame Gao lifted her eyes to behold the mess at home, her mouth filled with bitterness and unable to share the situation to the person on the other end. She hastily hung up the phone.
Li Shengxiao was too cruel!
This man was too cruel!
What exactly was Rong Yan’s situation? Just a kept mistress, how could Li Shengxiao go to such lengths for her?
