Super Soldier

Chapter 463 Xiao Bing and Xu Sheng

“How could you do this to me…” Xu Sheng’s mind almost broke down. He had antagonized his current family and was condemned by others, because of her. He thought that in this way, he could be with this woman.

But now, Li Yan’er wanted to break up with him right after he woke up, which was something he could not accept.

Xu Sheng seized her shoulders and asked angrily, “Are you serious? This is a joke, right? Tell me this is just a joke.”

Li Yan’er looked at Xu Sheng and asked, “Do I look like I am joking?”

Xu Sheng felt he was about to have a nervous breakdown. He suddenly thought of one possibility. He asked crazily, “Did you fall in love with another man? Otherwise you would not suddenly propose to break up with me! Who is he? And why do you think I’m inferior to him? I abandoned my family for you, and it is still not enough for you?”

Though Xu Sheng was crazy for this woman, he was not irrational. He had been manipulated by her, but he was not a fool. Otherwise he would not have become a successful businessman. That idea occurred to him soon after he heard what she had said.

Li Yan’er looked at Xu Sheng with disdain, “Who are you to ask me if I have other men? Xu Sheng, we are over. It’s not possible for us to be together anymore!”

“It’s impossible. Tell me, who the man is?” Xu Sheng looked at Li Yan’er, the madness plain in his eyes. “In which aspect is he better than me? I’m rich and powerful. I can give you everything you want, including a happy life and the admiration of others.”

Xu Sheng was a clever man and he realized what this woman truly wanted. But he did not think about it previously, because he was so obsessed with her.

Li Yan’er smiled, “Xu Sheng, you are a good man. But things won’t work out for us. I don’t have any other man. That’s all I can say for now… As for others, say whatever you might like to say. I want to be alone for some time. Should I leave or you?”

Xu Sheng looked at Li Yan’er. He suddenly realized that this girl was not afraid of him at all. He sighed and said, “Alright, I will leave.”

Then Xu Sheng stormed out of the room. But he did not give up on her completely. He just needed some time to calm down. Li Yan’er held an important place in his heart, since he could abandon his family so readily for her. So he could never let go of her so easily, simply because of what she said. He even thought that perhaps it was just an impulsive decision on her part, and she would change her mind, when he returned tonight. But if he rationalized it truthfully, he knew that he was just lying to himself.

After Xu Sheng left, Li Yan’er called Zhang Qiang and said happily, “Brother Qiang, I’m a little hungry. Can we have a bite outside? By the way, I have good news to tell you. I can go with you at any time.”

Zhang Qiang sounded elated, “Really? That’s perfect. Just prepare for the trip and come to Jingdu with me. Then I will marry you and you will become the young lady of the Zhang Family.”

Li Yan’er’s eyes gleamed with excitement. She hung up after she exchanged some love words with Zhang Qiang..

She put on a beautiful dress and walked out. Then she got into a taxi and headed toward the restaurant they chose.

Feeling upset, Xu Sheng walked to his company. While he was walking upstairs, he found a man standing in his way.

Xu Sheng intended to swear, since he was in a bad mood. But when he looked at this man, he found this man looked quite familiar. It was Xiao Bing, who was with the board leader of the Ye Group, at that feast.

Xu Sheng felt that it was a good thing that he held his tongue. Otherwise he could not have borne the consequences.

Not only did he fear the Ye group, but he was also afraid of Xiao Bing. He knew how powerful this man was in this city and even in the three northern provinces. No one would have a good ending if he offended Xiao Bing.

Though he was not feeling good, he managed a smile and asked, “Mr. Xiao, I did not know that you are here? Are you looking for me? What a coincidence.”

“Not at all.” Xiao Bing said with a smile, “Uncle Xu, I have been waiting specifically for you here.”

Xu Sheng was startled by how Xiao Bing addressed him. Normally Xiao Bing would call him Mr. Xu, unless he was a friend of Xu Sheng’s daughter, who was Xu Wenting.

But he did not think much about that. Maybe Xiao Bing just did it out of respect.

But Xu Sheng did not want to be seen as being haughty in front of Xiao Bing. He said politely, “Mr. Xiao Bing, we can go to my office for a discussion. And I have some fine tea leaves…”

Xiao Bing smiled, “That’s not necessary. And I suppose Uncle Xu is not in the mood for drinking tea now, right?”

Xu Sheng was surprised. It seemed that Xiao Bing already knew that Li Yan’er wanted to break up with him.

Xu Sheng suddenly thought of something, then he said angrily, “Mr. Xiao, did you force her to break up with me?”

Xu Sheng did not know how Xiao Bing knew about it, nor did he care about it. But he knew that Xiao Bing was capable of forcing Li Yan’er to leave him. After all, Xiao Bing was the leader of the underground world of the three northern provinces. Even he himself dared not to offend him, let alone a woman.

He felt relieved when this idea came to his mind, since he thought that Li Yan’er had been forced to do that. He was both angry and scared of Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing grinned, “You think I forced that woman to break up with you? Do you think I would deign to do that? Don’t you think you overrated yourself?”

Xu Sheng had not expected that Xiao Bing would deny it. He frowned and asked, “It’s not you?”

Xiao Bing sneered, “I will never threaten a woman with my fists. Only scums will do that… Let me put it this way. You don’t have any right to be angry or dissatisfied with me. Because I’m your daughter’s friend. Do you know what you did hurt your daughter so much? But she still sees you as her father? But do you deserve her?”

“You are Wenting’s friend?” Xu Sheng was shocked. He did not know how his daughter came to be a friend of this man, who was much more powerful than him. Then he felt ashamed. He even wanted to find a place to hide after he heard what Xiao Bing said. Indeed, he was the girl’s father. But he was the one who brought the most harm to her. Now did he deserve her?

Xiao Bing said aloofly, “I know you want to know why Li Yan’er, for whom you abandoned your wife and daughter, wanted to break up with you. Come with me and I will show you the truth.”

Xiao Bing walked downstairs. Xu Sheng followed without any hesitation. It was like what Xiao Bing had just said. He would be condemned for the rest of his life. He was still wondering why Li Yan’er wanted to leave him, when he was about to divorce his wife.

Xiao Bing sat in the driver’s seat and Xu Sheng sat next to him. Then he closed the door.

Xiao Bing said, “Fasten your seatbelt.”

Xu Sheng did as he was told.

Xiao Bing said, “You have a good daughter. But you don’t deserve her. Your wife has always been faithful and good to you, but you abandoned her for someone who is younger and prettier. You don’t deserve her, either.”

Xu Sheng blazed, “I admit that I feel guilty about them. But I want to be with Li Yan’er not because she’s younger and prettier. If I was a man who prefers the new to the old, I would have been with other women long ago.”

“Of course. ” Xiao Bing grinned, “You do have some conscience since you invited your mother-in-law to live with you, so that you can take of her. You are not as hardhearted as that. Things turned to be like this, because that woman is really capable of manipulation. She made you seem like a loyal dog.”

Xu Sheng said hotly, “You should not say that. She’s a good girl. It’s all my fault.”

Xiao Bing laughed, “Good? Then why does she want to break up with you when you gave up everything for her? Is she not aware of all the things you have done for her? If she left, you would lose everything.”

Xu Sheng opened his mouth, but found it hard for him to refute him. But he shook his head stubbornly, “She’s not that kind of a woman? She doesn’t play tricks.”

Xiao Bing grinned, “Then I will show you the truth!”
