CHAPTER 748
Li Jing spent some seconds speaking to him. Her heart clenched when she saw the deadly look in his eyes.
No matter what happened, she did not care as long as he returned to her. Only he mattered to her at this point.
His hold on the knife tight was one thing but when he began rising to his feet slowly, Li Jing’s heart flew into her mouth as she
“Ye Cheng, please. Listen to me. I am fine.”
She scanned his face in search of a sigh, proving he could hear her and wasn’t far gone.
…..
After what seemed like forever, he finally moved, his gaze flickering over her face. “Hey, love.”
A soft laugh fell off her lips instantly but she still did not smile. Instead, her eyes shone with hope as she peered deeper into his.
“Ye Cheng,” Li Jing called out again. “You sure you are okay?”
“Yeah. I am. I am glad you are fine.”
“Then please let go of the knife. Do not murder anyone, please.”
Hearing her soft voice made his heart clench a bit and he instantly released the knife, letting it fall with a clanking sound to the ground.
Rather than speaking, Ye Cheng rose to his feet with both hands placed around her as he lifted her with him.
“I am sorry if I scared you, love. Forgive me.”
All Li Jing could do was nod her head before falling into his arms as she hugged his body tight.
Her shoulders trembled as she sobbed, letting her tears soak his shirt. “I am sorry too.”
“Hey, hey, hey… shhh. This one’s not on you. I am to blame for not doing my job in protecting my wife. So, stop crying love. We can handle this later, for now, I need to know all that happened.”
Although she did not feel completely okay, Li Jing knew this wasn’t the best time to show weakness.
Drawing her nostrils, she wiped her face clean, as she pushed back from his embrace. “Sure.”
“That’s my pride and joy. Good girl.”
Placing his hands on her shoulder, Ye Cheng turned her towards the scene before them.
It wasn’t so much of a surprise when he saw Ren and Fong Wei Ling staring at them. Sure, they both made a scene and he could not blame them.
He was so mad just now and he still was. Never once did he lay a finger on his wife and now one scoundrel had the audacity to do that.
Lifting his chin up a bit, Ye Cheng’s cold gaze swept through the two men on the ground close to his companions before settling them on Ren and Fong Wei Ling.
“Did you get anything from them?”
“For now, no. However, they won’t be able to escape it. I would get all the information needed,” Fong Wei assured him.
“Good. Better and especially that one,” he gestured with his chin to the first guy, the one who laid his fingers on Li Jing. “Make him pay.”
His lips pulled back to the side, revealing a side smirk as his eyes landed on the young man once more.
“And the police?” Ren’s voice brought his senses back.
At this point, Ren was sure that things may be way out of their control considering the cops would be involved.
If not, he was okay with having Ye Cheng order their torture or beating. Whatever suited his rage.
“Sure. Anyways, he knows how best to handle this situation. I better not be here because, I cannot say I would stand for it when either one of those two tell a lie.”
“I understand,” Ren agreed calmly.
Just hearing Ren not question his words and agree to them, made Ye Cheng narrow his gaze at him. This was the very person who would always have an argument with him.
“Relax. I am angry as well considering they went against his orders and tried to harm her. I would try however to nit break someone’s nose this time.”
The second those words fell out of his lips, Li Jing who had been watching the gaze exchange between her husband and Ren, she lifted her eyes up and her gaze settled on Ye Cheng’s face.
She had noticed something off when she saw him but she was more worried about the deadly glint in his eyes than bother about anything else.
Now that Ren made mention of breaking someone’s nose, it triggered what her memory had once seen.
“Ye Cheng.”
He peeled his eyes from Ren and brought it down to her face. A small gasp escaped Li Jing’s lips almost instantly as her frightening eyes remained glued on his face.
Precisely his nose.
From the position she was in, she got a closer view of his nostrils and could still see a stain of blood in there.
Instead of speaking, her eyes continued to stare while she alternated her gaze from his nostrils to his eyes.
He did not bother saying a word to her. At this point there was no lie that would save Ren from her. The idiot stupidly gave himself away with that sentence of his.
Tilting her head to the side a bit, Li Jing arched her brows at Ren as her gaze narrowed on him.
“What the hell did you do?”
The deadly aura seeping out of her at that moment made Ye Cheng take a closer look at his wife.
He was sure that she was going to be mad, but the way her eyes darkened sent chills to anyone she centred those eyes on.
It was a fact that they both loved each other and any wrong done to the other would trigger a dark side of them.
She was someone who was not bothered about her own health just now and the fact that she was hurt but seeing him injured made her heart ache.
“Only I have the right to touch him. And if I refuse to, no one has the right to do so either,” Li Jing stated coldly as she turned her body completely and took a slow step forward.
“I do not forgive that.”
GULP!
From the corners of his eyes, Fong Wei Ling watched as Ren gulped, taking in her cold glares.
In this stance and bearing, she looked more dangerous than her husband.
If there was one thing, he had learnt well not to offend an angry lady. Just like Chen-an, she could be so feisty when she was mad and watching Li Jing now, he understood what Ye Cheng ment.
No wonder he was not perturbed. He wished to show off to his wife and have her retaliate instead.
As funny as that sight would be great to watch, he knew he would not go unscathed.
“Umm, I am sorry?” Ren shut his eyes while gritting his teeth in anticipation of what was to happen next seeing as the young lady was already more than half way over to him.
“A question?” Li Jing’s angry voice inquired.
“No. I am sorry,’ Ren corrected quickly as the hairs on his body stood on end. “I never would have dared it, but in my defense, he tortured me.”
“Still. Punishing him is my cup of tea not yours. Besides, had you not acted creepy earlier, he would not have bothered with chasing after you.”
She came to a stop a foot away from him, with both hands folded under her bosom. “Tell me, what should I do to you? Or shall I take it out on your woman?”
Her eyes gleamed in the poorly lit room. Not once did she hide the mischievous look that seeped into her eyes nor the wry smile that followed on her lips.
From another point of view, Ren and Fong Wei Ling could see she was enjoying this, loving his scared reaction.
However, while Ren couldn’t dare voice this out, Fong Wei Ling did. He could sense a kind of mafia blood in her.
There was no doubt should she choose that way; she would excel greatly in it.
“You make a great mafia boss, sister-in-law,” Fong Wei Ling complimented.
Another smile lit up her face as she directed her gaze away from Ren to Fong Wei Ling. “I am like this when it comes to my family. I do not appreciate any hurt coming to him.”
“I know.”
“Good. Cause I should blame you too but I am guessing you weren’t there when this happened/”
“Yeah, I wasn’t. I had a similar reaction too when I saw it.”
“Fine. Like boyfriend like girlfriend. At least Chen-an knew what she got when she hit my husband.”
“Now that’s my wife. Anyways, I held back and did not beat him to a pulp. You should be proud of your hubby.”
Just listening to Ye Cheng boast, Li Jing turned her body to the side and smiled at him. “Yeah, I should also deal with you for letting him get one over you.”
Ren left out a soft scoff as he tried his best to withhold his laughter considering the demoness herself was standing before him.
“For the fact you two could put your differences aside and come save me, I would forgive you all.”
Instantly her gaze softened and she smiled again at Ye Cheng. “I just want to go home with you, okay?”
…..
“Yes. But first, we may visit the station.”
Nodding her head, Li Jing agreed as she turned fully and walked over to his side.
“All right. They would be needing pieces of evidence, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then in that regard, Wei Ling can’t handle them,” Li Jing pointed out.
“Yeah, but he knows what to do. Do not worry, you would get justice.”
