My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 394 - 391: Slap You in the Face

"Let's forget about it," Cao Buwei shook his head, "My son is too young, I don't want him to settle down too early."

"Forget it?" Di Renkui's expression darkened, "I came to you with thick skin, and you won't even give me this bit of face?"

"It's not that I don't want to give you face, but this matter... it's really a bit difficult," Cao Buwei said with a bitter smile.

"Enough, don't say any more," Di Renkui snorted coldly, "You just look down on me, look down on my daughter! You think she's not good enough for your son!"

"Not at all..." Cao Buwei just wanted to explain but was interrupted by Di Renkui.

"From now on, I'm cutting off all ties with you, we will be strangers until death," Di Renkui stood up, pushing his chair back.

"You want to break off relations with me just over such a trivial thing?" Cao Buwei frowned.

"What's trivial in your eyes is a big deal in mine," Di Renkui huffed, "Months ago, my daughter caught sight of your son by chance and took a fancy to him immediately, she made a fuss about me coming to propose a marriage, I had no choice but to come to you, but who knew you would not even give me this courtesy."

"Minister Di..." Cao Buwei started to speak but was rudely interrupted by Di Renkui.

"We'll see about that!" After throwing down these harsh words, Di Renkui turned to leave.

Cao Buwei's complexion fluctuated between light and dark, and the hand behind his back slowly clenched, "Minister Di, please hold on."

"What else do you want to say!" Di Renkui stopped, looking at Cao Buwei with a bad expression.

"I was wrong just now, I shouldn't have spoken like that," Cao Buwei said, lowering his stance, "Upon reflection, my son is quite mischievous, often causing trouble, it wouldn't be a bad thing to find him a wife to keep him in line."

Di Renkui blinked, "What do you mean by that?"

"I agree," Cao Buwei smiled, "Let's have the children betrothed first, and then get married after they've spent some time together."

"You..." Di Renkui was stunned, "Why have you changed your mind all of a sudden?"

"I genuinely wish to become relatives by marriage with Minister Di, so we can look after each other in the future," Cao Buwei chuckled, "Come, let's sit down and talk."

Full of suspicion, Di Renkui sat down and looked up at Cao Buwei, "Are you serious? You're not joking with me?"

"Of course, I'm serious!" Cao Buwei picked up the teapot and filled the empty cup in front of Di Renkui.

"That's more like it," Di Renkui hummed and reached out to take a sip from the tea cup.

"Let's discuss the details."

"Alright."

"When betrothing, there's no need to be too extravagant, just keep it simple, and we can celebrate in a big way when they actually get married."

"Mm, alright."

"And about the betrothal gift?"

"The betrothal gift, let's not worry about that."

"No way! It can't be skipped! The proper customs must be observed, I can't neglect my future daughter-in-law, how about this, I have a rare treasure here, I will give it to my future daughter-in-law," Cao Buwei took out a Jade Pendant from his bosom and placed it on the table, "This Jade Pendant has been handed down from my ancestors, very precious indeed."

"Oh?" Di Renkui picked up the Jade Pendant and examined it, "It's just a very ordinary Jade Pendant, isn't it? There's nothing special about it?"

Cao Buwei shook his head, "If one could see its worth at a glance, it wouldn't be a rare treasure." As he said this, Cao Buwei stood up, walked behind Di Renkui, "Let me point it out to Minister Di... This Jade Pendant is indeed extraordinary... I didn't even give it to my son..."

"Is it really that good?" Di Renkui was mesmerized by the Jade Pendant at that moment, completely unguarded against Cao Buwei.

"It's right here... Fall for me!" Cao Buwei suddenly extended his hand, slapped Di Renkui on the chest, and then quickly retreated.

"Uh... you..." Di Renkui shook, then spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and collapsed to the ground. His face turned pale as paper in an instant, "You... why..."

Cao Buwei walked over and viciously kicked Di Renkui in the chest several times.

"Puh..." Di Renkui spat out three mouthfuls of fresh blood in a row, his breath growing weak.

"Cut ties with me? Cut your own damn mother! Want to become my in-laws? Marry your ancestor!" Cao Buwei cursed, "Your daughter is even uglier than a pig by three points, my son would rather remain a lifelong bachelor than marry your daughter." Having said this, Cao Buwei kicked Di Renkui again.

"Even if... you don't agree... you shouldn't have ambushed me..." Di Renkui said intermittently, "I won't let you off... I will go to Wan Fuchang and report to him... let Wan Fuchang deal with you..." Intra-corps fraternicide was strictly forbidden in the military, offenders would be executed without mercy.

"You won't have the chance to report." Cao Buwei sneered.

Di Renkui's face changed, "What do you mean? Do you dare to kill me? I'm telling you, if I die, you won't get off easy!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you." Cao Buwei squatted down and stuffed a pill into Di Renkui's mouth.

"Ugh... what did you give me..." Di Renkui was terrified.

"Just a little Poisonous Pill." Cao Buwei smiled, "Don't worry, you won't die just yet... The Poisonous Pill's latency period is three days. If you take the Antidote within three days, you will be fine, but if you exceed three days... heh heh, your intestines will rot and you'll die a painful death."

"You're so vicious..." Di Renkui trembled as he spoke.

"It's not that I'm vicious, it's that you're too oblivious, neglecting the comfortable life you had and coming to provoke me," Cao Buwei said, "I am a man who holds grudges; anyone who provokes me pays a terrible price."

Di Renkui was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you, the Antidote is not on me."

"Not on you? Then who has it?"

"The bandit leader has it."

"Ah? The bandit leader... you... you really defected?"

"Don't ask so many questions!" Cao Buwei twisted his mouth, "All you need to understand is that if you want to live, you need to follow my orders. After you finish the job, I will take you to see the bandit leader, and he'll give you the Antidote."

Di Renkui's face twitched uncontrollably, "What do you want me to do?"

Cao Buwei leaned over, whispering a few sentences into Di Renkui's ear.

"What!" Di Renkui's eyes widened, his body trembling non-stop, "You want me to plot against Wan Fuchang? Impossible! I will never agree!"

"You can refuse," Cao Buwei shrugged, "after three days, you will die, and it'll be a terrible death."

"Even if I die, you won't live either!" Di Renkui's expression was ferocious as he spoke.

"That depends on your choice," Cao Buwei laughed, "Do you want to live, or do you want to die?"

"I..." Di Renkui wanted to spit out some harsh words to show his determination, but the words wouldn't come out; in the end, Di Renkui was afraid of death.

These days, people who are not afraid of death... are too few.
