Chapter 190: I'm really afraid you'll get serious!

~7 min read 1,354 words

Looking at his hippie-smiling face, Hong Bo silently shook his head.

This kid still doesn't know what will happen later.

Just as Li Yihu was about to find a stool to sit down.

Li Jiaci shouted sternly: "Stand straight for me!"

"Ah?"

Li Yihu didn't react in time.

"What's with you showing off lately?"

"You put on airs with customers, and you don't get along with your brothers either!"

"What, my workshop can't tolerate you anymore?"

"You want to sing the song of the overturned serf!"

"You're acting as my boss now, aren't you?"

Li Jiaci put on a stern face and asked seriously.

Actually, before, Li Jiaci would hold a meeting with his brothers every few days.

He would point out their performance, or give them a scolding.

But since the workshop was built.

Li Jiaci himself was swamped, and the brothers were also leaving early and returning late.

Such meetings haven't happened since.

Li Yihu is just a mischievous monkey; if not beaten for three days, he'll tear off the roof tiles.

The other brothers can keep their tempers in check.

Only he needs constant prodding to barely look like a person.

Under Li Jiaci's stern questioning.

Even Hong Bo felt an intangible pressure.

Let alone Li Yihu.

"No, brother, I haven't done anything lately..."

Li Yihu said, shrinking his head, resentfully.

Then came a bang.

Li Jiaci slammed down his tea cup and stood up.

Just standing like that.

Li Yihu instantly felt his legs go weak.

He involuntarily shivered.

Although they are not blood-related brothers.

But after so many years of getting along and adjusting.

Li Jiaci is, in the hearts of these younger brothers, no different from their real older brother.

He only needs to lose his temper.

Saying it's bloodline suppression is not an exaggeration.

"Still giving me that slick talk!"

"You haven't done anything, how could anyone complain about you?"

"Damn, are they just full and looking for trouble?"

Li Jiaci gave a round of scolding.

Hong Bo felt his heart rise to his throat.

He had long known that these people used to hang out in society.

It's either courting death or already on the road to it.

All day they play with their lives.

But seeing Li Jiaci lose his temper for real still frightened them badly.

It felt as if a knife could be drawn from behind at any moment.

A puff sound.

Random knives slashed the person opposite to death.

Scary as it is.

Li Yihu is still young, after all.

Hong Bo, having worked with him these past months, has treated him like his own nephew.

He simply couldn't bear to do it.

"Boss, can't we talk nicely?"

"He'll definitely listen!"

"Right, Huzi?"

Hong Bo frantically gave Huzi a look.

Seeing this, Li Yihu hurriedly nodded and said, "Brother, I'll definitely listen to you!"

"Hong Bro, you don't need to speak for him!"

"This kid is just itching for a beating, damn it!"

"After a few peaceful days, he gets cocky without limits!"

"He forgot his own weight!"

Daring to shout loudly at anyone, damn!

Li Jiaci said while walking forward.

Li Yihu nervously swallowed, and in his panic he dropped to his knees.

"Brother, I was wrong!"

"I promise you I'll never lose my temper with anyone again!"

"Be courteous to everyone!"

"Don't be angry, I… I'm really afraid you'll get serious!"

These words came straight from the heart.

Li Jiaci's angry look would make even ghosts retreat three leagues.

Hong Bo also stepped forward to advise, grabbing Li Jiaci's hand and saying anxiously, "Boss, this guy already knows he's wrong; he definitely won't dare again!"

Actually, Li Jiaci didn't really intend to strike.

He just wanted to scare him.

If he really had to strike, he'd still be reluctant.

In his previous life.

Li Jiaci held Li Yihu's black-and-white portrait, wiping it over and over while calling his name repeatedly.

But he could no longer get any response from that guy.

Li Jiaci dreamed at night of the scene where he scolded and beat Li Yihu.

Upon waking, he fiercely slapped his own ear.

He remembered all of these.

Li Jiaci pushed aside Hong Bo's obstruction, walked up to Li Yihu, and slowly raised his arm.

Li Yihu, frightened, immediately closed his eyes and his body trembled uncontrollably.

He thought he would receive Li Jiaci's harsh reprimand.

Suddenly, he felt warmth on his face.

Li Yihu stared blankly, opened his eyes, and looked at the older brother before him.

"Brother…"

Li Jiaci touched his face, then ruffled his hair.

"Get up!"

Upon hearing that, Li Yihu not only didn't get up,

but became even more afraid.

He wailed, "Brother, just slap my mouth—don't scare me like this!"

"What?"

Li Jiaci frowned.

"This is scarier than beating me!"

"Come, I'll give you my face—hit me however you want!"

"After I hit you, I'll feel relieved!"

Li Yihu voluntarily brought his face forward.

"…"

Li Jiaci was speechless.

This guy really is itching for a beating.

Hong Bo reacted quickly, grabbing Li Yihu's arm and pulling him up from the ground.

"You little brat, your brother isn't going to beat you, and you're still not satisfied?"

"Hurry up and apologize to your brother, then scram off to work!"

Li Yihu glanced skeptically at Li Jiaci's expression, saw he really didn't intend to strike, and then relaxed as if granted amnesty.

"Brother, I will definitely change, definitely…"

"Alright, get lost!"

Hong Bo waved at him.

After Li Yihu left, Hong Bo immediately turned, his expression complex, and asked Li Jiaci, "Boss, your temper flares up and dies down just as fast—just moments ago you looked ready to beat him, yet now you can't bear to do it when you're right in front of him."

"You can't bear to hit your own son?"

"I…"

Hong Bo felt something stuck in his throat.

But he also understood why Li Jiaci suddenly held back.

"To guide these brats onto the right path, you've gone to great trouble!"

Li Jiaci gave a faint smile and said, "As long as you understand, that's enough."

That night.

Li Jiaci didn't go to the hospital to visit Wang Yingna.

He went to Wang Yingna's dormitory to tidy up.

He combined the two beds into one.

Besides, he spread new bed sheets and blankets, and had Zhang Chuqiang pull a newly made wardrobe from the Furniture Factory to place in the dormitory.

The wardrobe's style made everyone feel it was fresh.

But Li Jiaci had little reaction.

He opened the doors and windows, then opened each cabinet door one by one, so that the formaldehyde smell could dissipate as quickly as possible.

Once Wang Yingna is discharged from the hospital, we can directly use this wardrobe for clothes.

The next day.

Li Jiaci mailed the prepared documents to the Commerce Administration Bureau.

At the current mail speed, it can also be delivered in two days.

Ten thirty in the morning.

Zhang Chuqiang led the Car Fleet mightily into the Mu Cai Chang.

The workers went up to help unload the cargo.

Li Jiaci also went over.

"Qiangzi, have you bought all the stuff back?"

Zhang Chuqiang nodded, pointed to the three large trucks at the back, and said: "All bought back, a total of twenty sets of tables and chairs, enough for sixty people without problem!"

"Now pull these to the office building, let Brother Hong hurry up and move them upstairs!"

"Okay, brother!"

Zhang Chuqiang agreed, and hurriedly took those three large trucks and set off.

At that moment, Zhao Chen led a group of young people into the factory.

"Brother, new people have come again!"

"Take them to my office; I'll come interview them later!"

"Understood!"

Just after Zhao Chen and the others went in.

The middleman at the gate clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Li Lao Ban, you've had enough already!"

"You're expanding the factory and opening a company, and you've hired so many high-tech talents; give the peers a chance to survive!"

"Hahaha…"

"Don't listen to him, Li Lao Ban; he's just jealous of your excellence!"
