Chapter 1181: Sharpen Your Knife
The ‘huge fuss’ she meant referred to Hou Zi’s way of solving matters by brute force.
Ye Jian noticed that her expression was finally gentler. Hence, Ye Jian smiled and suggested, “Brother Zi. I have a suggestion… I have a slightly selfish suggestion that I want you to listen to.”
As Hou Zi raised his eyebrows, Ye Jian said slowly, “Sun Yaozu is not very clean. I once suspected that he’s an escaped convict but after some investigation, I didn’t find anything.”
“Since he’s back in the Southern Province now, he must have heard of your name, Brother Zi. Based on your capabilities and position in the Southern Province, he probably wants to come and visit you. If you can spread some threats regarding this matter, Sun Yaozu will definitely know it… That means that Ye Zhixiang and Grandma Ye will know it too. Do you think the entire family will be haunted by fear?”
Xia Yiwei laughed softly. “Sharpen the knife but don’t use it. Not bad, it’s enough to let them always be on tenterhooks.” Hou Zi was a famous killing god of the underworld. Seven years ago, someone purposely hid their ‘goods’ in the kitchen of a bar under his name. When he found out about it, he spread some threatening words around. The police didn’t manage to find the culprit but the person who framed him got so frightened that he turned himself in.
If the person who started the rumor was really Ye Zhifan’s mother and sister, they would probably be frightened to death when they knew about Hou Zi’s threat.
Ye Jian said a few more words to Hou Zi. Then, two minutes before the school bell rang, she ran back to the classroom.
After her figure disappeared in front of them, Hou Zi said with interest, “A girl that knows how to use a gun is indeed powerful. She has quite a personality too. Old Sixth’s taste is good.”
“They are already bullying her like this, is she supposed to endure it?” Xia Yiwei threw this sentence at him coldly. She left in her high heels without looking back. Hou Zi didn’t mind. He chased after her with a smile on his face.
She still cared about him. That made him hopeful. He didn’t expect what he thought was a bad thing to turn into a happy event for him in the end. This matter allowed him to know that Xia Yiwei still cared about him!
This was a happy event for Hou Zi but for Sun Yaozu, a second ago, he was elated because he thought that he had managed to find a way to make friends with Hou Zi. But, the next second, after listening to what Ye Zhixiang said, his happiness turned into anger.
“You… Are you saying that the rumor about Third Master Hou having an affair with Ye Jian… You and mother-in-law were the ones who spread the rumor?” He was furious. He was unable to accept this so he kept asking, “Were you the one who spread it, or did mother-in-law spread it?”
Ye Zhixiang, who had her facial mask on, didn’t notice that her husband got angry. She heard something wrong with his voice so she took off her mask and frowned. “My mom spread it and I spread it too. What’s with your expression?”
“Let me tell you, if we succeed in this matter, that wicked girl Ye Jian will definitely get kicked out of her school. At that time, we will be able to get rid of her whenever we want! Her mother blinded you. I will make her daughter pay with her life!”
She was so angry that her face had turned red. Sun Yaozu raised his hand without any hesitation. He didn’t give Ye Zhixiang any time to prepare. The crisp sound of a slap was heard in the bedroom. “Third Master Hou! How dare you spread rumors about Third Master Hou?”
He screamed in anger. Ye Zhixiang was stunned by the slap. She covered her cheek that was hot from the slap. A few seconds later, she shouted, “You b*stard, how dare you hit me? Who am I doing this for? I’m doing this for you! How dare you hit me?”
This was the first time Ye Zhixiang got slapped by her husband after getting married for so many years. She couldn’t bear it. She pounced on him and used her sharp fingernails to claw Sun Yaozu’s face.
