Chapter 426: Bai Li Tu Ming
Baili Pangpang frowned tightly upon witnessing this scene.
He reached out and pushed against the desk, gracefully leaping over it and landing steadily in front of Baili Jing, who was sitting in a swivel chair. His right hand clenched into a fist as he coldly spoke:
“Although you are the adopted son of the Baili family, have we ever treated you poorly from childhood to now? Everything I have, you have too, and some things even more than I do!
Dad entrusted the entire group to you because he trusts you! Because we trust you!
You are more capable than I am and more qualified to manage the Baili Group. I am very clear about this. From the beginning, I never intended to monopolize power, nor do I care about it. What I think about is that once I inherit the Baili Group, I will directly hand over all the power to you, allowing you to continue managing the Baili Group on my behalf.
At that time, the two of us brothers can work together: I will fight outside, and you will manage the family business at home. Isn’t that good?”
Baili Pangpang stared intently into Baili Jing’s eyes, gritting his teeth as he spoke:
“I treated you like a brother, and what about you?
You want to kill me!
Blowing up planes, inciting four forbidden item users, laying a trap around the entire Guangzhou-Shenzhen area… Heh, Baili Jing, you have quite the ambition!
How did our Baili family end up with such an ungrateful wolf like you?!”
Baili Pangpang nearly roared the last sentence. He suddenly raised his fist and swung it forcefully toward Baili Jing’s face, the whistling wind of his punch creating a mournful sound as it cut through the air, the force terrifyingly strong.
Baili Jing, sitting in the swivel chair, narrowed his eyes slightly and gently raised his right hand.
On his thumb, a green ring glimmered faintly.
In the next moment, the ring automatically disassembled, like a tide covering Baili Jing’s right hand, transforming into a part of a jade armor glove that firmly caught Baili Pangpang’s fist.
Bang—!!
A deep collision sound echoed in the office.
Baili Pangpang’s fist was easily held in Baili Jing’s hand, the latter leaning slightly forward in his chair, a mocking look appearing in his eyes.
“Me? I’m the ungrateful wolf of the Baili family? Hehehe…”
Baili Jing’s laughter abruptly stopped as he gazed into Baili Pangpang’s eyes, his smile gradually fading. He spoke slowly, “After all these years, how can you still be so naive?”
Seeing the jade armor glove, Baili Pangpang’s expression changed slightly. “Baili Jing, do you really want to fight me here with forbidden items?”
“And if I do?”
Baili Jing’s palm suddenly exerted force, and Baili Pangpang’s fist immediately made a slight cracking sound. His face turned ashen, and with a determined heart, he reached into his pocket.
“Since you want to fight, I’ll oblige.”
Suddenly, he froze in place.
His hand rummaged through his pocket repeatedly, then he looked down, staring at his empty palm, a look of bewilderment appearing in his eyes.
“Where’s my [Free Space]?” he muttered in confusion. “Impossible, I clearly had it on me. Why can’t I open it… Where’s my mental power?”
Baili Pangpang’s brow furrowed tightly as he carefully sensed the mental power within him, but all of it seemed sealed, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t summon even a trace.
Without mental power, he couldn’t use forbidden items.
A mocking expression appeared on Baili Jing’s face. “What’s wrong? Realized your mental power is sealed? Why don’t you think carefully about what you ate today?”
Upon hearing this, Baili Pangpang stood frozen in place.
The image of a sumptuous breakfast flashed in his mind.
That was the only thing he had eaten today.
No, it can’t be…
Baili Pangpang’s eyes slightly contracted, and he shook his head in a daze. “Impossible, she’s my mom. How could she possibly harm me?”
It seemed he thought of something, suddenly looking down at Baili Jing, his eyes filled with rage. “It was you! You tampered with my breakfast?!”
Baili Jing scoffed.
“Don’t you find it strange?
Although I manage the Baili Group, it’s only a small part. With my status, how could I possibly have the authority to mobilize missiles to attack your plane?
The four forbidden item users are one of the Baili family’s faces; their qualifications are older than my age. How could I have the ability to incite them to kill someone designated as the sole heir of the Baili family?
This is Guangzhou-Shenzhen, this is the Baili Group!
Do you really think I could evade my father’s notice and use the entire Baili Group’s power to ambush you? And he wouldn’t know anything about it?
You really overestimate me…”
Baili Pangpang stood there like a statue.
“What… does that mean?” After a long time, he finally spoke in confusion.
“What? I’ve said this much, and you still can’t understand?” Baili Jing raised an eyebrow, his palm exerting force again, the jade armor crushing Baili Pangpang’s hand bones!
Excruciating pain instantly filled Baili Pangpang’s mind, his face contorted in agony, his teeth clenched tightly as he stared at Baili Jing, managing to hold back a sound.
Baili Jing released his twisted hand, the hand covered in jade armor clenched tightly, and he delivered a heavy punch to Baili Pangpang’s chest!
Baili Pangpang’s chest instantly caved in, and he flew backward, crashing into the heavy desk, rolling twice on the ground before violently spitting out a mouthful of blood.
“Cough cough…”
Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth onto the office floor as he staggered, trying to support himself and seemingly wanting to stand up.
Baili Jing, wearing the jade glove, slowly walked up to him, grabbing his collar with one hand and lifting him off the ground. He leaned in close to Baili Pangpang’s ear and spoke slowly:
“Since that’s the case, I’ll tell you directly…
It’s not me who wants to kill you,
It’s our father.”
Baili Pangpang’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he shook his head slightly, weakly saying, “Impossible! Why would Dad want to kill me? I’m his son… he has no reason to kill me!”
Baili Jing looked him up and down for a moment, then said with a hint of amusement:
“You’re his son? Are you so sure?
In terms of physique, appearance, personality, intelligence… what about you resembles him?
What kind of person is our father? He’s the one who founded the Baili Group and made it the most successful enterprise in the Great Xia. He’s an esteemed figure among the Night Watchmen, and he’s regarded as the curator of the Forbidden Item Collection. He’s a legend in the entire Great Xia business world!
Yet, he has you, a lazy, fat, and dim-witted son… do you think that’s reasonable?”
Baili Pangpang stared blankly at the ceiling.
“You also said that from childhood to now, what you have, I have too, and even more than you…
How many times has our father even looked at you?
Has he ever treated you like a son? Has he ever cared about you?
No!
He just gave you money, provided you with many servants to take care of you, following you wherever you went. These people constantly instilled the idea of being lazy and indulgent in you, taking on all your responsibilities, showing you the glamorous world, turning you into a complete waste!
Your only role was to use the name Baili Tuming to attract those who intended to harm the Baili Group, assassination, bombing, murder, attacks… can you even count how many times?
After each narrow escape, has your father ever taken the initiative to comfort you, even once?”
Baili Jing let out a cold laugh. “Do you want to know what I was doing while you were risking your life outside?
I was at home, enjoying the warm meals made by my mother, learning management and business thinking from my father, sharing his workload, enjoying the treatment you will never experience.
I have everything, while you only have the name Baili Tuming.
And now, I’m sorry.
This name, you should return it to me…”
