I’m Pregnant with the Villain’s Child - Chapter 280 – That I really want to kill him! (2)

Chapter 280 – That I really want to kill him! (2)

Ye Zhenting had purchased a knife for self-defense after the loan sharks came after him to repay the debt. The knife was very sharp, and the skin on one’s neck was delicate. Just a moment ago, when he had been agitated, he had accidentally made a cut the size of a fingernail on Ye Zhen’s neck. The injury was small and shallow. It didn’t hurt much, so Ye Zhen hadn’t noticed it when she was very tense.

Ye Zhenting saw the very small injury on Ye Zhen’s neck. He was so anxious that he stepped forward without putting the knife down. He anxiously asked, “Did you accidentally get hurt? Quickly, sit down. Dad will take a look!”

Ye Zhenting knew very well that Lu Beichuan was very serious about Ye Zhen. If he hurt Ye Zhen, who knows if Lu Beichuan will still help him with the loan sharks?!

And that’s how Lu Beichuan saw this scene when he walked in.

Ye Zhenting was approaching Ye Zhen with a knife in his hand. There seemed to be a bloodstain on the gleaming blade. Ye Zhen was covering her neck with her hand and staring at Ye Zhenting. She had one foot behind her. This was the posture of someone guarding against another person.

Seeing this scene, Lu Beichuan and the bodyguards he had brought with him swarmed up. Lu Beichuan nimbly kicked the knife out of Ye Zhenting’s hand, and the bodyguards pressed Ye Zhenting down onto the ground. He couldn’t move at all.

This happened in the span of a few seconds. There wasn’t enough time for anyone else to react.

Lu Beichuan walked over to Ye Zhen in a few steps. He looked her over in worry. In an uneasy tone, he asked, “Are you okay?”

Ye Zhen was watching Ye Zhenting, who was pressed against the floor. Hearing Lu Beichuan’s question, she looked up and suddenly met Lu Beichuan’s worried gaze.

His eyes were flickering uneasily. There was still lingering fear in his eyes after he had looked her over.

Ye Zhen let go of her neck and comfortingly smiled at him. “I’m okay.”

Lu Beichuan’s gaze fell on the motley bloodstain on her neck, and his eyes turned malicious.

Ye Zhen saw him staring at her neck. Knowing that he had misunderstood, she wiped the wound to show him. Her expression eased and even had a smile. “I’m okay, really. Look.”

After the blood was wiped away, he could see for himself that the injury was only a small cut.

However, this was her neck, not another spot. If Ye Zhenting had been a little bit more careless, it wouldn’t have been only a scratch.

Before Lu Beichuan had time to say anything else, Ye Zhenting, who was harshly pressed to the ground by the bodyguards and didn’t have the time to care about the pain of his dislocated arm, shouted, “Beichuan! Beichuan! It’s all a misunderstanding! You misunderstood! Tell them to let go of me!”

Lu Beichuan didn’t think he had misunderstood what he had seen. If he had come a step late, Ye Zhenting would have succeeded!

“A misunderstanding? You were walking towards my wife with a knife. You’re saying that’s a misunderstanding?” Lu Beichuan looked extremely gloomy.

Ye Zhenting repeatedly hissed in pain. Under the suppression of the bodyguards, he was barely able to stand up. There was a layer of sweat on his head. He said to Ye Zhen, “Zhenzhen, explain for Dad. Dad just wanted to see you…” Ye Zhenting paused. He knew he was in the wrong. “Dad just wanted to take a closer look at your neck wound.”

Lu Beichuan looked at the loan sharks in the room.

The man who had gotten the call from their boss immediately cleared the relationship between them and Ye Zhenting. “Mr. Lu, don’t misunderstand. Ye Zhenting deceived us. He told us that Mrs. Lu was willing to pay back the 40 million yuan for him. That’s why we went along with him. We had no idea that it was kidnapping and extortion. This… If we had known earlier that his daughter is your wife, we definitely wouldn’t have done this.”

“What do you mean? How can you call this kidnapping and extortion? I just went to look for my daughter to have a chat. How can you guys call that kidnapping and extortion?” Ye Zhenting panicked. With a pale face, he babbled to Lu Beichuan, “Beichuan, don’t listen to their nonsense. They’re loan sharks. Their words aren’t credible. I’m Zhenzhen’s father. How could I kidnap her?”
