Chapter 850 - Every Child Deserves A Home (2/2)
”You're going to regret taking them, especially ye. He was sold off to Red Moon, and they'll come after you.”
He could only use Red Moon to threaten Yue Ling as he knows the mention of Tao Meng will scare anyone.
”No matter how rich you are, you will not be able to escape from them.”
Lin Hui had yet to leave when he almost stumbled. He looks at Liu Peng with a frown but doesn't say anything.
Liu Peng's head grew more prominent upon seeing Lin Hui's stumble, and he thought he had scared them with Red Moon.
He grins from ear to ear on the inside but keeps a calm composer. He only needs to say a few more words, and he'll get those brats back.
Once he has them back in his hands, he can keep his head.
”Ye is now a property of Red Moon. You might not know this, but Red Moon will never let anyone off so easily. so I suggest you bring my sons back this instant.”
His head raises like he was a man with power, and his words continue.
”One phone call, and they will come after you to take back their own.”
The corner of Lin Hui's mouth began to Twitch. He stares at Liu Peng then walks over to Yue Ling at a fast pace.
”Boss, I'm begging you. I will do whatever you want. Please.”
Hearing Lin Hui's words full of pleading, Liu Peng knew he had made a point.
If he knew the mention of Red Moon would terrify Lin Hui this much, he should have threatened them sooner.
He could already see his children back inside the house, and he could teach them a lesson for trying to run away or telling on him.
However, as good as it sounded for him, Lin Hui's following words struck him like lightning on a stormy day.
”Please let me punch him. Just one punch. One punch is all I need.”
All the colors on Liu Peng's face drained of life. He had thought he finally scared Yue Ling and Lin Hui, but that wasn't it.
Remembering the strength of Lin Hui's kick, his legs turned weak.
He would have fallen to the ground, but he stood in place due to his frozen state of mind.
If Lin Hui's kick almost killed him, who knows how he (Liu Peng) would be after getting punched.
Yue Ling didn't need to turn around to know what was Liu Peng's reaction. She stares at the car ahead and sighs.
”Where is his sister?”
Hearing his plead dismissed, Lin Hui could only pout. He heaves a long sigh and scratches his head as if to get rid of his frustration.
”She's at school.”
Yue Ling ponders for a long minute. Once she comes to a decision, she walks away after giving an order.
”Send someone to pick her up.”
Walking a few steps, she stops and turns back to look at Liu Peng. She knew what he was trying to do by mentioning Red Moon.
If it had been someone else, maybe they would be afraid. However, she is not someone else.
”I meant every word I said. One false move, and your fate will be collected.”
She leaves her last warning and continues with her way towards the car.
Lin Hui was slightly disappointed that he couldn't give Liu Peng a good beating. However, never one to go against his boss's orders, he sends the man a deathly glare before following Yue Ling.
After all, he knows that this will not be the last time he'll encounter Liu Peng. If his guess is correct, he assumes the man will probably try to seek help from Tao Meng.
Liu Peng was at a loss by what had happened. He remained in place and watched as the woman and man walked away.
In the distance, Lin Hui caught up to his boss. He places his hands behind his head and glances at her.
”You alright, boss?”
He remembered every word she said to Liu Peng. Others who heard would find her irrelevant for lecturing a man twice her age on how to be a father.
However, he knew she wasn't being irrelevant.
Her words were for every child who didn't have the voice to express their pain.
Yue Ling's steps ceased when she heard the question. Her bluish-green eyes look at the rear of the car like she could see Liu Ye and Jianan.
”I'm fine as long as they'll be fine.”
She knows that she cannot save every abused child, but she will do everything to help if she can save one.
Giving her answer, she doesn't walk to the rear door but makes her way to the passenger side of the car. She opens the door, and before entering, she glances back at the sight of Liu Peng.
Disappointment washed inside her again, and she got inside the car.
'Every child deserves a home, but not every home deserves children.'
