Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Drinking with My Wife

At this moment, the noise outside the house caught their attention.

Xiao Zheng entered the room with a radiant smile, called Leng Ruobing "wife" in a cheeky manner, then turned his gaze to Leng Qingxuan, who had a gloomy expression, extended his hand with a bright smile, and said, "Wife, this handsome guy must be my dear brother-in-law, right?"

Having said that, Xiao Zheng forcefully reached out to grab Leng Qingxuan's hand, his face full of excitement as he said, "Brother-in-law, I'm really sorry, those two vermin outside were lacking manners, so I gave them a little education on your behalf. You wouldn't be angry, would you?"

Silence!

Absolute silence!

Leng Ruobing was completely stunned by Xiao Zheng's inexplicable entrance.

Is this guy from another planet or what?

Even Leng Qingxuan was dumbfounded by his enthusiasm.

"You're Xiao Zheng?" Leng Qingxuan fiercely shook off his hand, only to find that Xiao Zheng was holding on even tighter, as if they were close relatives.

"Yes, Xiao Zheng—'Xiao' of flute, 'Zheng' of upright," Xiao Zheng said proudly, finally releasing Leng Qingxuan's hand.

After letting go, Leng Qingxuan frowned and took out a handkerchief to continuously wipe his hand, then sneered at Leng Ruobing, "Leng Ruobing, Leng Ruobing, I thought you'd choose some kind of man, but to think you'd accept even this sort of trash, when did your taste deteriorate so badly? You may not find it disgusting, but our Leng Family certainly finds it humiliating!"

Leng Qingxuan didn't even deign to give Xiao Zheng a full glance.

"Brother-in-law, that's not the right thing to say, is it?" Xiao Zheng touched his nose, looking at Leng Qingxuan with a smile.

"What are you worth? Is it your place to speak here?" Leng Qingxuan glared at Xiao Zheng with disdain and said, "You think you're one of the Leng Family just because you married Leng Ruobing? Sorry, in my eyes, you rank even lower than my family's dog!"

"Shut up!"

Leng Ruobing couldn't stand it any longer.

No matter how bad Xiao Zheng was, he was still her husband in name; how could she allow Leng Qingxuan to insult and direct him?

"Leng Qingxuan, my affairs are none of your concern. What kind of man I find is my business!"

"Oh, so Leng Ruobing has grown wings now, huh? The marriage father arranged for you, with Han Shirong, in what way is he not better than this trash before us? Yet you choose such garbage deliberately to embarrass our Leng Family, don't you?"

Leng Qingxuan grew more and more agitated as he shouted, pointing at Leng Ruobing mercilessly, "Leng Ruobing, even if you got married, so what? A marriage not approved by our Leng Family is just a joke!

And you, you piece of trash as worthless as shit, you think you can join the Leng Family just by deceiving my sister? Don't even dream of it, in my eyes, you are nothing but a pile of crap!"

Leng Qingxuan continued to rage and curse at Xiao Chen.

"Are you finished?" Xiao Zheng's smile gradually vanished, and his eyes began to turn cold, "Please move your finger away. Otherwise, you will regret it."

"Heh, what, you think because you know a few tricks you're something special? Let me tell you, it's not about whether you can fight in today's society!" Leng Qingxuan sneered and continued to point straight at Xiao Zheng's nose and jeered, "In Zhonghai, just with one word from me, Leng Qingxuan, you...oww..."

Suddenly, Leng Qingxuan screamed in agony.

His index finger was remorselessly caught in Xiao Zheng's hand, forcefully bent downwards, causing such pain that Leng Qingxuan immediately crouched down on the spot.

"Stop it!"

The two other bodyguards, seeing what was happening, quickly surged toward Xiao Zheng.

However, Xiao Zheng's icy stare radiated endless chill, his lips curled up into a sinister smile, and with a blur of movement, the two bodyguards hadn't even gotten close before they started screaming in pain from their feet.

Their feet were literally crushed by Xiao Zheng!

But the strange thing was, they didn't even see Xiao Zheng kick...

"Xiao Zheng, stop it!"

Leng Ruobing quickly intervened.

Xiao Zheng squinted his eyes, smiling at the near-kneeling Leng Qingxuan, "I told you, you would regret it. But you just wouldn't listen."

After he finished speaking, Xiao Zheng finally let go.

Once freed, Leng Qingxuan was furious. He swung his fist at Xiao Zheng.

But this time Xiao Zheng didn't tolerate him. With a swift step forward, he moved in quickly, and an unfeeling hand gripped Leng Qingxuan's neck, lifting him off the ground, the overpowering sensation of suffocation hinting at the scent of death.

"Xiao Zheng, let go of him!"

Leng Ruobing knew her brother was excessive, but he was still her brother, and she feared Xiao Zheng might really do something impulsive.

"OK, since my wife asked me to let go, I will," Xiao Zheng shrugged his shoulders and loosened his grip without protest.

The moment he did, Leng Qingxuan fell onto his butt on the ground, coughing profusely, his face swollen red like a pig's liver.

"Very well, you little beast, you dare hit me?" Unable to swallow his pride, Leng Qingxuan turned to give Leng Ruobing an icy stare, "And you, Leng Ruobing, I'll remember this!"

After speaking, Leng Qingxuan stormed off with a darkened face. As he reached the door, Xiao Zheng suddenly called out to him, "Uncle, wait a moment."

"What do you want?" Leng Qingxuan was stunned.

"I'm just seeing you out! You're welcome." Xiao Zheng chuckled slightly and then kicked him on his buttocks, sending Leng Qingxuan tumbling out the door in utter disarray.

The bodyguards hurried over to help Leng Qingxuan, while Xiao Zheng, with a cigarette hanging from his lips, smiled faintly at the furious Leng Qingxuan, "Don't be 'cheap,' my dear uncle."

After finishing, there was a loud snap as the door shut tightly.

Seeing Leng Ruobing's dazed and bewildered expression, Xiao Zheng knew she wasn't in a good mood.

He decided not to tease her and was about to go upstairs when Leng Ruobing suddenly called out to him.

"Can you have a drink with me?" Leng Ruobing said with a slight frown and a hint of melancholy, "If you don't want to, then forget it."

Nani?

"Hehe, how could I turn down an invitation from my wife to drink," laughed Xiao Zheng.

Excitedly rubbing his hands together.

Leng Ruobing's sharp eyes gave him an annoyed glance but then retrieved two decent bottles of foreign liquor from the liquor cabinet, walked to the balcony, and stared at the night scene outside with a complex look in her eyes.

She poured two glasses. Before Xiao Zheng could speak, she picked up a glass and began to drink.

Xiao Zheng's smile stiffened, knowing that his wife was in a bad mood, he simply smiled and said nothing.

But after Leng Ruobing had several drinks in succession, she noticed that Xiao Zheng had barely sipped and showed no intention of drinking heartily.

"Can't you drink?" Leng Ruobing's eyes gazed at him like autumn waters.

Xiao Zheng took a draw from his cigarette and chuckled, "Foreign liquor isn't much fun, doesn't suit my taste."

Leng Ruobing snorted coldly and huffed, "If you can't drink, you can't drink. No need to pretend to be a big, bad wolf."

As she said this, a hint of disdain appeared in her eyes.

Nimah!

She was blatantly looking down on the brother here.

"Wife, is there any baijiu?"

"There's Moutai."

"Where?"

"In the cabinet," replied Leng Ruobing.

"Wait for me." Xiao Zheng grinned and stood up, heading to the liquor cabinet.

Upon opening the cabinet, wow, the lifestyle of the rich was something ordinary people just couldn't understand.

Just the pricey Moutai alone totalled over a dozen bottles! And the market price of each bottle was in the tens of thousands.

Of course, most of Leng Ruobing's liquor was gifted by others.

Not one to drink white wine lightly, Xiao Zheng grabbed five or six bottles of Moutai and walked back to the balcony.

With a smack, five or six bottles of Moutai were spread on the crystal table.
