Chapter 1665 1665: Brat
Big Beard said, "How can you be mindful? Our family is on the verge of a nervous breakdown because of you, you know? If I hear any noise from your apartment again, you better watch out, I'll make you pay."
Liu Bingying held back and said, "Sir, I'm truly sorry. We will definitely be careful."
Big Beard got even angrier after hearing that, "What do you mean by 'be careful'? Is that enough? Especially with that brat of yours, do you think she can be careful? If she runs around upstairs again, I won't be polite."
When he mentioned Xiao Ke, Liu Bingying got a bit upset.
"Sir, I've already told you we'll be careful. If the house has poor soundproofing, that's a quality issue. I'm just walking around my home normally, is that illegal?
You know children are young and hard to discipline, they won't pay attention to these things, can't you be more tolerant of each other?"
Big Beard got angry again and said, "Oh, you inconsiderate person! You're making so much noise upstairs and still think you're right. Believe it or not, I'll smash your place!"
With a menacing demeanor, Big Beard forced Liu Bingying back several steps until she hit the wall.
Xiao Ke was so frightened by this that she started crying.
Seeing Xiao Ke cry only made the Big Beard man even more enraged. He yelled, "Shut up! If you cry again, I'll rip your mouth apart!"
Xiao Ke didn't understand, she just continued crying, and Liu Bingying tried to console her, but to no avail.
Big Beard was truly furious now and yelled at Xiao Ke a couple more times, causing nearby people to gather.
"What's going on? Whose child is crying so loudly and why isn't anyone calming them down? How can anyone live with this noise?"
"Exactly, the noise is unbearable!"
Now that Big Beard had some support, he became even more arrogant and angrily said to Xiao Ke, "How dare you cry? If your mom can't teach you, then I'll discipline you myself!"
After saying this, Big Beard reached out to grab Xiao Ke, clearly intending to get hold of her.
With Liu Bingying nearby, she certainly couldn't let Big Beard grab Xiao Ke, so she instantly slapped his hand away.
"What do you think you're doing?"
Big Beard was taken aback, "Oh, you dare to hit me? Looks like you're tired of living."
After his words, Big Beard slapped Liu Bingying right across the face,
and the sound was crisp.
Ling Zhenfei was shocked. He had been hesitating, unsure if he should intervene in this neighborly dispute, but witnessing the slap to Liu Bingying's face,
Ling Zhenfei's expression turned cold, his anger rising.
After Liu Bingying was slapped, Xiao Ke, seeing her mother hit, naturally became upset and charged at Big Beard, biting his leg.
Big Beard was in pain from the bite and picked up Xiao Ke, throwing her aside.
He acted impulsively and didn't notice that he was throwing towards the stairs.
If Xiao Ke fell, she would surely be injured.
Liu Bingying saw this too, but it was too late to save her.
But just at that moment, a figure appeared and caught Xiao Ke.
Not only did the figure catch her, but did so seamlessly, without even startling Xiao Ke.
Xiao Ke naturally didn't know she had been at risk moments ago, it was a matter of life and death.
Seeing Ling Zhenfei, Xiao Ke exclaimed in surprise, "Dad!"
Xiao Ke was Ling Zhenfei's goddaughter, so calling him "dad" was fitting.
However, hearing it made Ling Zhenfei a bit teary-eyed.
Liu Bingying saw Ling Zhenfei too, and though tears welled in her eyes, she stood there frozen, unsure if she should step forward.
The onlookers, including Big Beard, were shocked, unable to fathom where Ling Zhenfei had come from or how he had arrived so promptly.
Ling Zhenfei then carried Xiao Ke over to Liu Bingying, who quickly took Xiao Ke from him.
Ling Zhenfei turned and looked at Big Beard, with a smile still on his lips, but in the next moment, he slapped him.
He slapped the guy right across the face, and the guy didn't even have time to react before the slap landed.
Everyone present was stunned; they didn't expect Ling Zhenfei to take action without saying a word.
"Who are you, kid? You dare hit me?" Big Beard yelled in fury.
But before he could finish speaking, Ling Zhenfei slapped him again.
Smack!
It resounded loudly, leaving onlookers stunned, not expecting such an incident, hitting twice without speaking.
"You're asking for it, kid."
With that, Big Beard lunged at Ling Zhenfei. He looked like someone who often got into fights, otherwise he wouldn't be so arrogant. He raised his hand to strike Ling Zhenfei, but just then, Ling Zhenfei slapped him right across the face again.
The three consecutive slaps left him dazed, and the people around were puzzled why Big Beard didn't dodge, seeming to let himself be slapped.
They didn't realize that Big Beard had no chance to speak as Ling Zhenfei acted so quickly, keeping him defenseless.
Just as he was about to move, Ling Zhenfei slapped him so hard that his mouth began to bleed, dripping from the corner.
After three slaps, he quieted down.
Ling Zhenfei finally spoke up, "Did that last slap sound loud?"
Big Beard was a bit dazed, not knowing what Ling Zhenfei meant.
After some thought, he said, "No, not loud."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Zhenfei swung again, knocking out a tooth.
During the first three slaps, the tooth had already been loosened, and now it was knocked out entirely.
"I asked if that slap was loud?" Ling Zhenfei asked.
The guy wised up, "Loud, very loud."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Which was louder, the slap just now, or the footsteps upstairs?"
Clearly, he meant the noise issue. Big Beard replied, "The slap just now was louder."
Ling Zhenfei asked, "Are you feeling mentally drained now?"
Big Beard shook his head quickly, "No, not at all."
Ling Zhenfei released Big Beard's hand, saying, "See? Even such a loud sound didn't make you mentally drained. So the footsteps from upstairs shouldn't be a problem either."
Big Beard was terrified, "Right, it's fine, nothing at all, it's just me imagining things, no footsteps. Our building's old, built with quality, thick, and well soundproofed."
