"Get out of the way, or I won't be polite to you." Chen Zhenghao shouted at his wife. He had always loved her, but every time he thought about her sleeping with someone else in the past, he couldn't help but feel uncontrollable anger.
Li Xin knelt in front of Chen Zhenghao, tightly holding onto his legs, pleading, "Zhenghao, please don't go. I beg you, don't go! Even though you have a shotgun, there are still dozens of security guards at Chen Haoxuan's place! They were all soldiers before; you can't take them on."
"Do you think I'm an idiot? I won't just hide and wait for Chen Haoxuan to come out—then shoot him?" Chen Zhenghao replied irritably.
"Even if you could kill Chen Haoxuan, what about you? Have you thought about what would happen to you? You would be arrested and executed by the police. Zhenghao, please don't go for my sake," Li Xin said with a pitiful expression as she looked at her husband. She used to be a call girl, and no one wanted to marry someone from her profession, let alone love her. But Chen Zhenghao loved her and married her, always obeying her wishes. Gradually, she came to see him as her support.
Having lived together for so long, if something happened to Chen Zhenghao, who else could she rely on? Who would love her like he did? Who would treat her so indulgently? No one; she believed that apart from Chen Zhenghao, no one would treat her this way. Therefore, she didn't want to lose him and had to stop him.
Hearing Li Xin's heartfelt words moved Chen Zhenghao, and his anger slowly subsided. He squatted down to help his wife up and said with red eyes, "Li Xin, I'll listen to you. I won't go kill him."
The year Chen Haoxuan was born, Li Xin often went out partying. She admitted that during that time she had slept with others, which led Chen Zhenghao to suspect from the beginning that Chen Haoxuan wasn't his son. In fact, this was just his assumption; he had never done a DNA test with Chen Haoxuan. Later on, as Chen Haoxuan grew up and became more handsome—looking nothing like him—it only confirmed his suspicions further.
If only Chen Zhenghao weren't so paranoid all the time, he might have noticed that Chen Haoxuan's appearance looked familiar. If he had gone through old photos of his mother when she was young, he might never have doubted that Chen Haoxuan was his son. Unfortunately, his jealousy was too overwhelming; it clouded his judgment.
The next day, Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina returned to New City. As soon as they arrived at their residence in New City, they were watched by a shady character known as Mosquito. He had been waiting near their place for a long time. Seeing them return made him smirk with delight as he muttered to himself, "Chen Haoxuan, the one who can make me rich, you've finally come back."
Mosquito pulled out his phone and dialed a number. When the call connected, he excitedly said, "Big Brother, Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina are back! They just returned and must be unguarded; should we strike now?"
A sinister voice came from the speaker: "We'll act tonight. Your task now is to continue monitoring them. Inform me immediately if there's any movement."
"Understood, Big Brother." Mosquito hung up the phone and resumed watching over Chen Haoxuan's residence. It was such a waste of his talents to be a robber instead of a spy.
Chen Haoxuan and Chen Yina returned to their residence and did not come out again, not even by 11 PM. This made the malicious group, who had been preparing to kidnap Chen Haoxuan since early on, quite unhappy. They had started waiting for Chen Haoxuan in a house not far from his residence at 5:30 PM. As soon as Chen Haoxuan stepped out, they planned to follow him until they reached a secluded area where they could execute the kidnapping. However, they waited for several hours, which made them consider rushing into Chen Haoxuan's place to take him away.
But they couldn't do that because there were five people in Chen Haoxuan's residence: Chen Haoxuan, Chen Yina, and three security guards. They were worried that if they acted, someone might escape and alert the police, which would create significant trouble for them even if they successfully kidnapped Chen Haoxuan.
In a house not far from Chen Haoxuan's residence, a member of the group named Mosquito spoke up, "Boss, what should we do if Chen Haoxuan doesn't come out?"
"Boss, with so many of us, why should we be afraid? Let's just rush in and grab them all," one of the thugs suggested.
"No wonder you're just a thug; you don't think! There are five people inside Chen Haoxuan's place. If one of them runs away, it will attract the police, and then we'll be in big trouble. So for safety's sake, we can only wait for Chen Haoxuan to come out and then kidnap him in a deserted area. If he has others with him, we’ll deal with them too. Only by doing this can we ensure success. Got it?" the boss explained.
"Boss is always right; every word is precious!" the thug said with a flattering smile.
"Cut that out; I don't like flattery unless you bring some money to bribe me. But if it's less than RMB, there's no need for flattery," the boss replied arrogantly. He then turned to Mosquito and said, "Mosquito, you stay here with your underlings to keep an eye on Chen Haoxuan. If he comes out, let me know immediately. We’ll go rest upstairs; just let your guys monitor while you take a break too."
Meanwhile, the person they were waiting for was leisurely playing cards inside the house. "Two!" Chen Haoxuan threw down a card.
"Boss, how come your cards are always so good? I suspect you're cheating," joked Lin Hao, sitting across from Chen Haoxuan.
"This isn't cheating; it's a matter of luck. You all don't want it? If not, I'll take 23456," Chen Haoxuan joked back.
Hearing this, Chen Yina became annoyed because her cards had been terrible. According to Chen Haoxuan's logic, that meant her luck was very poor. Angrily, she said to him, "Brother Xuan, my cards have been awful; do you really think my luck is that bad?"
"Nana, if your luck were bad—would I still love you? Just kidding! Come on, play your card; I’ll let you win," Chen Haoxuan replied with a smile.
"This is more like it. If there are any small cards later, you can't take them; give them to me. I still have a lot of small cards that I can't play!" Chen Yina whined.
Lin Hao and the others, who were playing cards with Chen Haoxuan, were speechless. What was this? Who cheats so openly?
"Nana, don't worry. I have four threes; I'll play them one by one for you," Chen Haoxuan said to Chen Yina.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The three of them fell to the ground, silently screaming in their hearts: "Can you be any more shameless?"
