Chapter 591 - Informed: Thugs

CHAPTER 591
Li Jing half smiled, scoffing a little at their lack of sense and sight. He was looking for her, yet she was there and could tell where the novices where as well.
"Bring out that bloody wench let her come and answer to me."
Immediately, the words fell out of his mouth, the two men that came with Li Jing as per Ye Cheng's orders, they began to march forwards towards the annoying, crowd ready to beat them.
'Oh no. Stop them.'
Quickly she raised her right hand in sky a bit to signal the men to stop. She wanted to see how these men's ignorance would play on until she was ready for their time but with Ye Cheng;s men following, that was a bit hard.
"Wait," one o fthe disturbing men yelled out.
"Hmm, what is the matter? Osbolt?"
"Umm, I, boss see. Isn't the lady in this picture same as the one standing before us?"
"Huh? You said? Give me that phne let me do a confirmation check o what he I saying."
"Sure, boss, take a good look."
Li Jing arched her eye brows at them but she waited to see what the idiots were up to.
They spent up to three minutes checking the picture and passing the phone to themselves, wasting Li Jing's time.
"She is the one."
"Oh my God!"
"How could we not realize it sooner."
"Ahem!" Their leader cleared his throat and beconed on them to listen.
"We need to pretend as though we know and not fall our hands in front of her. Let us intimidate her well enough and we would give her the harassment she deserves before anyone can stop us."
"Understood boss," they whispered in unison.
Immediately everyone had returned to their stand, their faces looking crueler than before as their boss took a step forward, eyeing Li Jing.
"You are Li Jing. Am I right or am I right?"
For the second time since she got there, she scoffed at their sorry excuse for being gangsters. "If you ingrates are done wasting my time you would get out."
"What? Who the hell are you calling ingrates? Woman, you would pay for this."
"Pay? I hope you have the right words to tell the cops when they come for you?"
Their eyes seemed to move a lot in one minute but they managed to clear their doubts and steped forward.
"I am here for what is mine and my guys here would ensure I get maximum of it."
"Hmm. And what is it that you want?"
"This land. Ask yoru assistant. I have told her before. I want it back."
"Back? You must be joking."
"Do I look like I am laughing?" he smiled at her then raised his hands. "This land to which this building sits on, belongs to no one but yours faithfully. Me."
"Ahh! I see. Then you must have the papers right? Because I am the dutiful and rightful owner to the land and building. If you do not clear this area within the next minute do not blame me for being cruel."
"Woman!"

On the other hand, Ye Cheng made his way to meet their family members as agreed on. All the while his countenance was gloomy and sad.
He really did not feel okay letting Li Jing go laone but he needed to be able to leave her on her own to make her decisions and be responsible for them.
If he kept on shielding her, then he woud not be teaching her anything and he would be like an owner caging his mouth or parrot.
That was what he never wanted her to feel. Apparently, he was doing so.
Resigning himself to reality, he shook his head and rested against the chair.
By the timehe got to where his mum and her grandfather were, he highlighted quickly to greet the disturbed duo.
"Mum, grandfather! Good morning. Sorry, I am late."
"Good morning Cheng. How are you?"
"Fine sir. Helo mum. Don't your favourite son get a hug?"
"You are my one and only son, of course you are my favourite and yes, you do get a hug."
Even though she was saying this, her eyes raked behind him to the car he came down from but she did not see what or whom she was searching for.
"Mum? You are distracted?"
"Sorry dear. Come take your hug."
Readily she opened her arms to receive him into her hug and patted him warmly on the back.
"How come she only ets a hug and I do not."
"Is someone whining?" Li An teased.
"Yes of course."
"Sorry gramps. You deserve one too." Moving in, they did a guy's hug and pat before separating form each other.
"Now the question I know Li An has been dying to ask and so have i. Where is my Jing Jing?"
"Umm, about that."
"Ye Cheng, what have you done again?" Li An asked with narrowed eyes at Ye chneg.
"Hey what is with that look mum? I did nothing."
"Never said you did. You are just guilty."
"Come on!"
"Just answer this old man, Chneg. Where I smy lovely grandchild?"
"She would not be coming…"
"WHAT!"
"Yet."
Both Li An and Lin Zian heaved a deep sigh of relief, placing their hands on their chest.
"Never you scare me like that again son."
"Noted ma, but know this, I never intended to in the first place."
"You really are something else, Ye Cheng.But why is she not coming, yet."
"She had an emergency at work."
"Seriously?" Both of them asked in unison.
"Yes. I volunteered to go with her but knowning how stubborn your grandchild is, she refused."
At the same time, Li An and Ln Zian looked at each other an dthe next thing Ye Cheng knew, they both burst into an uproar of laughter, leaving Ye Cheng confused.
"Hahhhaaaaaa…."
He did not say anything and waited till their laughter had died before he did. "And what is so funny."
"You. It is now you think she is stubborn? Wasn't that how she married you?"
