Chapter 121 - It's You

Wang Ming felt sweat down his back when none of the women responded to him, but stared daggers at him instead. He had no idea why they were all here. He could understand Fu Ya as she's his neighbor, but what about Lang Lin and Qiao Meng? Why are they here?

Though the person who was the most angry was none other than Ming Ming. She had both arms on her h.i.p.s acting like an angry mom, eyes glaring the funniest thing was that she had lips out and shook her lips every second like she was ready to pounce on Wang Ming as soon as he came to the front door.

And that she did as soon as Ming Ming saw Wang Ming she jumped from the stairs onto Wang Ming's head luckily he caught her in time or else she would have fallen to the ground and hurt her herself.

Wang Ming wanted to ask her what she was doing but he couldn't as Ming Ming jumped up on his shoulders and pulled on his hair, while crying. Hearing her cry, Wang Ming let her pull on his hair until she let out all her frustrations. He didn't know why she was so upset, but since he didn't feel any pain, he had no reason to stop her.

Instead, he just smiled miserably at the women, who laughed one after another. Even though they didn't show their dissatisfaction with him. He could tell how awkward the atmosphere had become as soon as he came. They tried to hide it behind their smiles but he could see their bitterness through it except from Qiao Meng she had a genuine smile on her face which made him feel a lot better. He didn't want anymore trouble today.

Feeling that Ming Ming calmed down, Wang Ming finally grabbed her off his head and gave her a hug and said with a soothing voice.

"What happened Ming Ming why are you so sad?"

"Hmmph."

Wang Ming didn't know to laugh or not, seeing her brush him off like that just made her look adorable. But even though she looked adorable, he couldn't always let her have her will.

"Ming Ming, talk properly to Daddy. Or else I won't make any food for you anymore."

When Wang Ming threatened her, she felt afraid, but this time she wouldn't cave in. She brushed her off again. Seeing her act like this made the women laugh, Wang Ming having so much trouble dealing with a little girl looked absolutely hilarious.

When the women started laughing, Wang Ming couldn't hold it back either and laughed with them. If someone had walked past them at that moment, they probably would have thought that they came to a mental institution. But if any mental institution has such pretty ladies, then there probably would be a line to sign up.

Seeing all the a.d.u.l.ts Ming Ming didn't understand what was happening and thought that they were laughing at her. Getting embarassed, she buried her face into Wang Ming's face, not daring to peek out, which made them laugh even louder.

Ming Ming felt her tears come again, she didn't think her mom and daddy would laugh at her. But as the dam started to leak, Wang Ming patted her head to calm her down.

"They're not laughing at you, mom and aunt just think Ming Ming is adorable. Now why are you angry at Daddy?"

"Hmph!"

Ming Ming once again brushed him off, even when Wang Ming held her up so they looked eye to eye, but when Wang Ming tickled Ming Ming, she had no other option than to give up.

"Please stop daddy! Ming Ming gives up."

Once again, Wang Ming asked her, this time, though she answered meekly and didn't dare to be cheeky, she didn't even dare to look at Wang Ming's eyes.

"Mmm… Aunt Meng said you're moving. She said you're a bad guy, that you are a gungster? Ming Ming don't know what it means, but daddy is the best, you can't be bad!"

Even though Ming Ming wanted to cry, she tried her best to hold back her tears, but she couldn't hold her feelings back this time, she felt lighter after telling her Daddy everything.

Wang Ming didn't really know what to say when Ming Ming said he's not a bad guy. Could he really consider himself a good guy after killing a man in cold blood? Though what he knew is that he's never going to move away from his baby.

"What? Daddy isn't moving anywhere! I'll always stay with my Ming Ming. If Daddy's moving somewhere, Daddy will kidnap Ming Ming."

"Daddy's bad! Mom said kidnappers are bad."

Wang Ming didn't answer, but laughed again. He finally put her down to the ground. He still had the ladies behind Ming Ming to talk to.

"Well, to what do I owe this p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e girls?"

He hoped that none of the women acted as Ming Ming as it would be way worse to deal with. Ming Ming's a little girl so he could just sweet talk her, but with m.a.t.u.r.e women it's more difficult especially when they are all here together.

Though even after 30 seconds none of them answered him, they just looked at each other, hesitant to speak. They all felt curious about what the other women's relationsh.i.p.s are with Wang Ming.

Qiao Meng's the first to speak. Even though she felt curious about the two other women, she didn't care too much. She wasn't here today to find out if Wang Ming has a mistress or not, even though it intrigued her seeing two other women here. She's here to talk about Wang Ming's actions tonight.

"Wang Ming, you have anything you want to say today for your actions? Only the higher ups know about this, but since they know I have a good relationship with you, they told me as well. Why didn't you tell me? I would have helped you."

Wang Ming sighed. Seems like the news had spread already, even though he wanted to be anonymous with this. Meng Hao's help had probably exposed everything. Also, all of Peng Tong's underlings had seen him, even though he had told them to forget he was there, he's sure some of them would leak it, eventually.

"Why would I tell you? We're not going on a picnic miss! It's life and death out there. Why would I involve you in something like that, don't you remember what happened last time? Isn't the large scar on your t.h.i.g.h enough of a reminder?"

Qiao Meng had actually come to congratulate Wang Ming, but when he reprimanded her, she got pissed off. Even though she knew he's right, she wouldn't have helped much if she came, Wang Ming had managed everything himself. Though what she still doesn't understand is how Wang Ming is just a restaurant owner, if she didn't know Wang Ming she would have thought he were a former soldier.

"Don't you believe in me and my abilities? You should know the only reason I got caught last time was because I got ambushed! I cleaned them all last time."

"I just don't want to endanger you, okay?"

"What are you guys talking about? What danger?"

Lang Lin couldn't hold her curiosity anymore and had to ask. She didn't like the feeling of being excluded. Fu Ya also wanted to ask, but since Lang Lin asked before she could, she kept her mouth shut and just listened.

Wang Ming hesitated he didn't want to tell them about this, he didn't want to worry them and above all he's afraid that they will reject him, learning that he has killed someone. Seeing him hesitate so much Qiao Meng gave him a push.

"If you don't tell them, then I'll do it."

"Fine… I killed someone today, a person who was threatening my life. Threatening you guys my family."

Wang Ming said each word with dead seriousness. He couldn't take back the fact that he had killed Hou Zhenan, he could only live with the guilt.

"What? Who did you kill?"

This time Fu Ya was faster than Lang Lin. She ran up to Wang Ming as fast as she could and grabbed his arm. Seeing Fu Ya run up to Wang Ming, Lang Lin didn't want to lose out either and ran up to grab Wang Ming's other arm.

"What are you guys doing?"

"No, who did you kill? What is happening Wang Ming? Are you going to jail, what are Ming Ming supposed to do if you go to jail?"

Wang Ming didn't know how to answer that, he had heard from Peng Tong that usually the police don't care when underworld gang's kill each other. That's why Wang Lei nonchalantly gave Wang Ming the house no one would even care if the house changed owners. But even then if the police pursued this Wang Gang would just let one of their underlings be the scapegoat.

So what was he supposed to say? That he's a gangster? A member of the Wang Gang, he just couldn't.

But then Qiao Meng said something which surprised him.

"Why would he go to jail? He was on a police mission. He killed the leader of one of the biggest gang's in Liaoling city Hou Zhenan. He's done the city a huge favor by ridding us of the worst underworld boss in the city. You guys won't believe the list containing all the crimes he has done through the years. Just the kidnappings the last few years is at least in the hundred, 90 percent of them being young women."

"You totally sidetracked me, Wang Ming. I forgot that I'm actually here today to give you an honorary position in the police force! They first wanted to give you a commendation, but I heard that the police commissioner pushed to give you a better reward. Your position doesn't hold any real authority, but it rivals a Superintendent 3rd class rank. Most police officers below your rank still need to give you respect."

Fu Ya didn't care about all the police stuff, and she didn't know who Hou Zhenan is. Hearing that he rid the city of a horrible person made her feel glad, but then he still killed a person. In her life she had never seen a dead person before, the only killing she had ever witnessed is in movies, but now Wang Ming had killed a person. Why?

"Congratulations Wang Ming, but why did you agree to do something so dangerous? To kill a person?"

"Because of you."
