Chapter 182: Xiao Li Zi Is Acting Stupid Again

High-end enemies, when they meet, always greet with a smile, then silently ask in their hearts: How are you still not dead?

Lin Dongfan never thought of himself as high-end.

Just an ordinary mortal.

Upon meeting, he retorted: 'Yo, still alive? Your life is pretty tough.' That hint of playful smile on his face was mixed with blatant contempt.

Li Hengbo bore himself like a calm and composed big shot.

With both hands resting on a pure gold coiled-dragon cane, his waist ramrod straight, he opened with easy banter: 'As for me still being alive, I don't think it's because my life is tough, but because my opponents are too weak.'

Don't be modest, your life really is tough—even dogs can't kill you.' Lin Dongfan laughed.

Li Hengbo looked astonished: 'How can you curse yourself like that? Lin Dongfan, Lin Dongfan, you've sunk low—I treated you as a person, yet you treat yourself like livestock.'

Damn, where did you go to train? Your mind is sharp now.

Lin Dongfan sized up Li Hengbo's outfit from head to toe.

The signs of transformation are obvious.

Although Xiao Li Zi today wasn't wearing luxury brands, his attire was proper—a suit with a jacket; if we treat the golden cane in his hand as a scepter, he has a touch of Western gentleman style.

Lin Dongfan asked in surprise: 'Not going back to work for months—did you switch careers to become a rich guy?'

People gotta look toward money, can't keep living in the past.' While chatting, Li Hengbo unintentionally stomped his golden cane: 'Pure gold, weighs five kilograms.'

Lin Dongfan laughed: 'Which rich lady did you hook up with again?'

I've already left the world of living off others, relying on my own strength to support myself.' Li Hengbo said confidently: 'Just now I said we can't keep living in the past, we must look forward. I came to see you today to ask if we can happily turn the page on past events. I wish you rapid promotion, you wish me abundant wealth.'

No.

Lin Dongfan shook his head.

Forgetting past disgrace is not magnanimity; it's weakness, numbness, betrayal of one's conscience!

The shame of wearing a green hat for decades in a past life.

And the various sufferings endured in prison in a past life.

Not to mention this life; even in the next life or the one after, Lin Dongfan won't forget—not even several bowls of Mengpo soup would help.

Lin Dongfan said: 'To avoid giving me a handle, you don't return to work at the unit, not even wanting an iron rice bowl. You've become smarter, turned into a true tough guy. Do you think I'd believe your nonsense? Your reconciliation now is just to let me lower my guard—that's all! Do you think my analysis is right or wrong?'

Those words made the on-site atmosphere turn much colder.

Li Hengbo's face lost its smile, his eyes fixed on Lin Dongfan, whose words were like knives; his complex gaze held some anger and also helplessness.

Their gazes clashed like needle points against wheat awns.

They locked eyes for a full minute!

Li Hengbo eventually lost, forcing a smile to break the awkward silence: 'Hearing you say you're going to the capital, be careful—the higher you climb, the harder you'll fall.'

'I hate these pointless warnings.' Lin Dongfan retorted impatiently: 'If you've got the guts, swing your golden cane and see if I dare break your other dog leg.'

'I'm a civilized person now; a gentleman uses words, not fists!'

Li Hengbo appeared righteous and confident, but inside he was seething with resentment.

His right leg had already been broken!

If his left leg were also broken, even the golden cane couldn't save this miserable life; he'd need a golden wheelchair.

Li Hengbo gathered himself: 'I'm just the guy who used to bully you at work, making you once be the toilet chief? Over that trivial matter, do we really have to fight to the death?'

Be confused!

If you can't figure it out, you're right!

I'm collecting a debt of death from a past life!

Lin Dongfan patted Li Hengbo's shoulder, helplessly comforting: 'Be brave, fight however you need to. As long as you don't admit defeat, you can surely die gloriously.'

'This is you forcing me!'

Li Hengbo shoved Lin Dongfan aside with one hand and limped toward Chu Lingxi.

Seeing this, Lin Dongfan shook his head helplessly.

How impatient is Xiao Li Zi? I really don't know if Chu Lingxi has bodyguards? Xie Xiaofeng and others, although they aren't providing close protection today, that doesn't mean bodyguards don't exist.

As expected.

When Li Hengbo entered the five-meter radius around Chu Lingxi, two plainclothes bodyguards burst out, each with one hand, blocking his path.

'Is this your turf? This is an airport! A public place—move aside!'

Li Hengbo roared at the bodyguards.

The two bodyguards didn't budge.

At this moment, Lin Dongfan also returned to Chu Lingxi's side, lightly putting his arm around her shoulder.

He then gave Li Hengbo a light smile:

'My wife is indeed beautiful; even pregnant she retains her charm. Such a beautiful fairy, do you really think you deserve her? In this life, you're destined only to gaze at her from afar.'

'This is you forcing me, don't regret it!'

Having said that, Li Hengbo sank his breath into his dantian.

He shouted loudly at Chu Lingxi five meters away: 'Lingxi, your Lin Dongfan is a scumbag! He's always hitting on girls behind your back, and he even slept with Su Yuhong…'

'……???'

Chu Lingxi stared at Li Hengbo, bewildered.

Li Hengbo kept shouting: 'Such a shameless scumbag—aren't you going to divorce him and have a kid? Listen to me, divorce! Don't worry about not finding another; my love for you has never changed.'

That shout who knows how many people it drew to watch.

This is an airport, after all.

The bodyguards glanced at Lin Dongfan, their complex expression seemingly asking silently: 'Brother Fan, should we drag him to the toilet for a lesson?'

Lin Dongfan, understanding tacitly, smiled and shook his head.

Chu Lingxi looked bewildered and asked Lin Dongfan: "Husband, nowadays the guy who takes over the mess, even wants a pregnant woman?"

"It's mainly because you're too beautiful." Lin Dongfan tightened his hold on Chu Lingxi's shoulder, his eyes constantly fixed on the shameless Li Hengbo opposite: "Do you think he looks like an idiot?"

Chu Lingxi nodded in deep agreement: "Looks like."

"Chu Lingxi, are you stupid? Are you stupid?" Li Hengbo stamped his crutch in anger: "I said he slept with Su Yuhong, are you deaf or didn't you hear? This scumbag is secretly sleeping with another woman behind your back! Don't believe me? Ask that female reporter from the TV station—Miao Miao, caught red-handed by a Mr. Miao!"

"I understand, you want to smear my husband."

Saying that, Chu Lingxi shifted her gaze to the two bodyguards.

He ordered the bodyguards: "Gentlemen, Xiao Li Zi is my friend, his legs are inconvenient, please take good care of him, find a place to give him a full-body massage."

"Yes, ma'am."

The two bodyguards responded, took Li Hengbo to the restroom.

Li Hengbo shouted angrily: "What are you doing? In broad daylight, what are you trying to do?! Security! Someone's being kidnapped here! Security……"

The onlooking travelers basically didn't dare intervene.

The airport security also didn't intervene; right now the security chief is standing together chatting idly with the bodyguard squad leader Xie Xiaofeng, the two having once been comrades-in-arms who carried guns together.
