“Oh dear!” Xing Biao didn’t noticed Su Mo’s presence until he had beaten that man. He realized something bad was going to happen and rushed to Su Mo, covering his eyes with his hand and taking him to a normal room next-door.

‘Holly shit. Su Mo was a scholar, and he couldn’t have seen such a violent and brutal scene before. Is he scared?’

Xing Biao didn’t want Su Mo to know the slightest bit of this bloody, brutal, and shady violence that should be off the table.

First, Su Mo was a lawyer, a lawyer for justice. Born in a scholarly family, he had only been dealing with books for more than 20 years. The campus life he had was pure and innocent. Although he had good Kung Fu, he merely learned it for self-defense. If he really saw that man being beaten to death, he would definitely be scared. Xing Biao wanted to give Su Mo a pure and stable environment all the time, and keep those shady things out of his sight forever.

Second, the vast majority of Xing Biao’s businesses were illegal. In case he went to jail, he wanted to make sure that Su Mo was clean enough to get himself out of these illegal deeds and wouldn’t get implicated at all. He would leave Su Mo a large sum of money to assure him a good life.

That’s the reasons why Xing Biao didn’t want to expose Su Mo to any shady side of the business. Even if Su Mo were to be his legal counsel, he would only see the “clean” part. Xing Biao originally planned to make sure that Su Mo kept his hands off any other things, but… who would expect him to open the door and see everything directly?

Xing Biao pointed his finger at Little Stammer’s nose. ‘You wait and see how I’ll punish you!’

While Little Stammer felt very aggrieved, ‘It was you who asked me to show Lawyer Su to your office once he arrived.’

“Darling, don’t be afraid.” Xing Biao comforted, and didn’t dare to take away his hands that blocked Su Mo’s views. ‘What if he sees something else terrible and passes out in the hallway?’ He gave a sign to other men and implied to get that man out of here right away.

Taking Su Mo to a more normal room, Xing Biao poured a glass of water for him immediately. Su Mo’s face went pale – although it was pretty white originally.

“Who’s that?”

“No one important. Just a little younger brother who was disobedient. He is being punished.”

“What did he do wrong to deserve such harsh punishment?”

Xing Biao gave the glass to Su Mo and said, “It’s not a big deal. Don’t worry about it. Drink some water to get over the shock. Are you frightened? I’m to blame. I should have solved this earlier. Rest assured – I would never do that to you. I promised I’d never hit my wife.”

Su Mo pushed the glass away and stared at Xing Biao. He thought, ‘Don’t you try to muddle through this – best to spill out the truth.’

“Aren’t you frightened? You look like hell.” Xing Biao smoothed Su Mo’s hair, and Su Mo violently pushed him away and said, “Just tell me all about it.”

“Tell you what? You don’t have to know about it.”

“Xing Biao, do you know that you’ve broke the law by doing so? What if he sues you? Are you going back to jail? The prison is a terrific place, huh? You already miss it?”

“I dare him to sue me. I’ll beat him dead if he dares!” Xing Biao was fearless and thought, ‘How dare him to go to the police? I’ll burn his house down.’

“Say it or not?”

“I told you that you don’t have to know about it, nor do you need to worry about it. What’s the matter with you? It’s none of your business, all right? I can take care of it myself. Just stay where you are, and forget about whatever you saw.” Xing Biao scratched his hair. Sometimes Su Mo just won’t give up and Xing Biao could do nothing but try to scare Su Mo by yelling at him.

However, Xing Biao could hardly be more mistaken. Thinking that he could bluff his way out of Su Mo’s questioning? If Su Mo were to spare him easily as long as he got angry, how come Su Mo became his lord and master?

Su Mo said nothing, pressed his lips together with his arms crossed over his chest. He simply stared at Xing Biao. His look was like the flying blaze, falling upon Xing Biao’s face.

Xing Biao tried to avoid eye contacts, but he felt like he had been placed under the strong spotlight and would be thrown to the icy hell the next second.

Staring at people with poker faces and saying nothing, which is a way of testing people’s psychological endurance. For whole five minutes, Su Mo kept staring at Xing Biao. The atmosphere in the room dropped below freezing point. Xing Biao was originally fearless, but he started avoiding eye contact in two minutes, and began to sweat in his back in three minutes, and then couldn’t help scratching his head in four minutes. Finally he surrendered in five minutes and said, “Ah forget about it. My lord and master, I surrender. Can I surrender?”

Being cut into pieces by that cold look was so miserable. Who would be able to calm Su Mo down if he got really angry?

“That man is a guest in the bar. He committed physical assault on one of the girls handling wines and beverage and ruined her.” Xing Biao waved his fist and was still furious about it. “Don’t you worry about this. Pretend as if you didn’t see anything and I’m definitely going to kill him with my Mafia methods.”

Su Mo’s expression softened a little.

“You’re not scared, are you? I was just so angry to beat him so hard. Usually I do not beat people myself, but it was so irritating. Don’t be afraid of me. We just made our peace and I wouldn’t want you to hide from me after seeing what I did today. I’ll be dreadfully unhappy. Darling, you are not afraid of me, are you?” Xing Biao tentatively touched Su Mo with his hands, and thought, ‘I’d rather be dead if Su Mo avoids me as if I am a dreadful monster from now on.’

Su Mo glanced at him and said, “I’m not made of paper.”

“Usually it’s my fist that does the talking. You could just forget about what happened today. I know that you majored in law, and certainly you don’t like it when I beat people, and I also know that you’ll be scared at my fierce look; However, this is the most straightforward way of dealing with this matter. I have to revenge for my staff and no one could bully them. I understand that it’s hard for you to accept the truth that I am cruel sometimes. I also see it coming that you’ll scold me and say that I’m committing a crime; but that is the true me. I like to go straightforward. Blood for blood – that’s the best way to vent my hatred.”

“That’s intentional injury and unlawful detention, and you will be sentenced to jail. As long as he calls the police, with solid witnesses and evidences, you won’t get away with it. Knowing it is the wrong way, yet you still did it? Do you really want to go in there? Don’t you think about the consequences?”

“See? I knew you were going to say that. As I said, that’s my way of doing things.”

“It’s not something that can be solved with a slap on the wrist. Or do you really intend to kill him as a punishment?”

“I’m going to make him an impotent bastard so that he could never do that to any girls again.”

Su Mo snorted and despised Xing Biao’s dirty tricks. Before he could say anything more, Xing Biao blocked his way of pleading.

“I’m telling you, don’t you plead for him. I won’t let him go. Don’t tell me it’s against the law. I’ve done a lot of illegal deeds and wouldn’t mind adding one more thing to the list.”

Xing Biao thought, ‘A scholar like Su Mo would be kind-hearted, benevolent and tolerant, and he would definitely urge me to let go of that guy. After all, it’s indeed against the law and he won’t let me go back to prison. From the legal perspective, he would ask me to release that guy before killing him. But I just won’t. That girl suffered a ton and her wrists were almost cut off by him. I’m not going to bear with it. So we are definitely going to have a fight. We’re only married for a few days and then the war is breaking out? That’s unbelievable.’

Su Mo sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, with his legs crossed. He sneered and looked at Xing Biao, “Who told you that I’d feel sorry for that guy, and ask you to release him? How come I’ll plead for him?”

Xing Biao was bewildered and thought, ‘What? Su Mo is not in favor of letting go of that guy?’

“By any means, get an oral confession of what he did yesterday. Ask him to describe in detail what happened and what was done, and record his words. Then take a picture of the girl’s miserable look as evidence. You could explain his wound this way – the girl called you for help last night, and you went there catching that man at the scene while he was committing physical assault to the girl, and you two had a big fight then. You were just too angry and irritated, so that you couldn’t control yourself and beat him very hard. And then, take this man’s blood sample to the hospital for a caffeine and morphine test. In this way, you could call the police and sue him with solid evidences. I’ll put this son of a bitch in jail for ten years at least, and the he’ll have to pay the girl a lot of money for mental distress. He’s going to pay a heavy price. Prison is sometimes a good place. I have done some research, These kind of people would definitely be despised by prisoners most. I’ll ask the guards to strictly discipline this guy. He is absolutely going to take off ten layers of skin within ten years.” Su Mo puffed a smoke, lifted his chin and looked at Xing Biao with a proud smile. “All you need to do is to get an oral confession from him… by all means.”

‘By all means?’ Xing Biao’s eyes brightened. He thought, ‘So we could do whatever we want to him – kicking, punching, or beating – and just make sure he’s breathing?’

“Oh, darling, you are just, just…” Xing Biao shouted and threw himself to Su Mo excitedly.

‘His gentle and elegant look was so attractive. I would totally surrender to him when he smiles and say the most perfect means of revenge. My darling absolutely takes an unusual path and I can never expect him to think like common people do. He is never tolerant nor timid, but rather vindictive, who would adopt all possible methods to revenge. He takes the extraordinary step of exploiting loopholes of laws, using the law as the weapon and even using the law to cover up something that is not allowed by the law.’

Xing Biao thought that he may frighten Su Mo, that Su Mo must be afraid of being involved in the killing, and that Su Mo would never allow him to revenge that guy. Well, it turned out that Su Mo’s method was even more cruel than his – that guy was going to become a paralyzed by beating in an illegal way, and he would still be legally sent to the prison afterwards.

He was indeed the good wife; he was his wings; Xing Biao marrying Su Mo was just like a tiger with wings – might double.

Xing Biao’s love for Su Mo grew day by day as they got to know each other more. Each day they spent together, Xing Biao felt like he could find one more merit of Su Mo’s. He thought, ‘My darling is so considerate and could always find a way to fit in exactly with my wishes. He is indeed a good wife.’

“Darling, you are my true darling and the best wife. I love you so much.” Xing Biao kissed Su Mo feverishly and ruffled his hair. He looked so very pleased and a bit cutely stupid.

Su Mo pushed him away, and wiped the saliva on his face with a disgusted look. “Look at yourself. So stupid-looking.”

“Darling, how… how did you come up with such an idea with your little head? How come I didn’t think of it?” Xing Biao thought that breaking that man’s arms and legs and castrating him would be enough for punishment, but he didn’t realize that the revenge could extend to ten years and gave him a lifetime of punishment.
