After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 133 - : The Pitfall of Strength
Chapter 133 -133: The Pitfall of Strength
“Hmph!” Zhang Xiaoling raised her head. “Yes, that’s right, I’m the one who sought him out. What about it?”
She admitted it directly, without any pretense.
“Oh, so it’s like that.” Xia Chuyi showed an expression of realization and nodded.
Seeing her nonchalant attitude, Zhang Xiaoling immediately snorted coldly and said, “Xia Chuyi, what are you implying?”
“Do you think just because you hooked up with that punk Liu Qiang that I won’t be able to do anything to you?”
Zhang Xiaoling strode into the shop, facing her.
“Xia Chuyi, even if you hook up with a dozen like the small-time thug Liu Qiang and sleep with a bunch of them, it’s useless. As for me, taking them down would be a matter of minutes.” Zhang Xiaoling’s words carried an unmistakably strong hint.
“What are you babbling on about, you made-up ugly woman!” Zhao Xiaogui, who had been trying to control his impulses, fearing he would say something wrong, eventually couldn’t hold back and stepped forward, pointing his finger at Zhang Xiaoling’s nose.
With a quick step, Li Cai moved to protect Zhang Xiaoling. “You little brat!”
He grabbed Zhao Xiaogui and raised his fist, ready to strike.
“What are you trying to do?” Xia Chuyi’s boning knife gleamed, casting a light towards Li Cai.
Li Cai was startled by the flash, pausing and releasing his grip.
“Thwack!” The knife plunged forcefully into the cutting board. Xia Chuyi’s gaze fixed on Li Cai, enunciating each word clearly, “You, what are you trying to do?”
Her eyes were icy cold, sending an involuntary shiver down Li Cai’s spine.
Everyone has a weakness, and Xia Chuyi stared at Li Cai.
In her past life, it was during a quarrel that she met with an accidental death.
This life, she definitely wouldn’t let her relatives be involved in such accidents.
The fierce fear the ruthless, the ruthless fear those who have nothing to lose.
Xia Chuyi’s eyes looked fiercely desperate.
Li Cai immediately turned cowardly.
It was Zhang Xiaoling who, being shielded, had not faced Xia Chuyi’s gaze directly and thus did not feel this terror. She was even more enraged and said, “What am I trying to do? Hmph!”
“Xia Chuyi, I gave you a chance to apologize to me, but you didn’t take it.”
“Now, even if you want to apologize, it’s too late.”
“Because I won’t accept it.”
Zhang Xiaoling pushed Li Cai aside, directly confronting Xia Chuyi. Her voice paused for a moment before she continued.
“If you’re wise, you’d better close up shop quickly and disappear from Ling County from now on, never appear in my field of vision again, or else, hmph!”

What use was it for a country bumpkin to act tough?
She was the Public Security Bureau Chief’s niece! Her parents were both high-level managers at the coal plant!
So what if Xia Chuyi hooked up with some sleazy men? Her uncle could take them out in a snap!
Thinking this, Zhang Xiaoling felt very self-assured as she looked down on her.
Even without dissecting Zhang Xiaoling’s brain, Xia Chuyi could already guess what she might be thinking.
Suddenly, she curved her lips lightly: “Zhang Xiaoling, do you know what ‘digging your own grave’ means?”
“What are you talking about?” Zhang Xiaoling clearly didn’t understand.
“It means nothing.” Xia Chuyi smiled faintly.
Zhang Xiaoling was “so concerned” about her. Naturally, she should return the favor. Since it was the end of the year, she would prepare a “great gift” for Zhang Xiaoling, a very, very special one.
Originally, she had planned to act after the New Year.
Tsk tsk, what a pity, Zhang Xiaoling has become a classic case of ‘digging your own grave.’
What sort of things had Zhang Zhicheng been involved in, what kind of people had he implicated, and what connections had he exposed? The newspapers had reported it so clearly, thus, she remembered it all too well.
