Chapter 1142: You Won't Make Things Difficult For Him, Will You?

He Wuhan never liked children, especially children who liked to cry and make trouble.     

As soon as the child cried, he became angry. "Tao Shui, come here and see if this child is hungry or what!"     

Tao Shui was He Wuhan's special assistant from before. He had been hiding here with He Wuhan for the past few days.     

He had also helped He Wuhan kidnap this child. He Wuhan hadn't done it alone. As soon as they arrived here, He Wuhan threw the child who only knew how to drink milk and shit at him.     

Tao Shui was forced to be this child's mother and father. He wanted to be angry, but he couldn't because the child was innocent. The only thing he could do was to coax this child when the child began to cry.     

Tao Shui walked over, and He Wuhan immediately threw the child at him in disgust. "Hurry up and make him stop crying. I don't want to hear him cry!"     

Tao Shui nodded sadly. He turned and looked at the child in his arms before placing him on the simple bed.     

He had just unwrapped the wet diaper when a stench of excrement hit his nose. Tao Shui almost threw up on the spot, and tears flowed from his eyes because of the stench.     

"Aiyo, what the h*ll is this? Why does this sh*t smell so bad!"     

He Wuhan, who was sitting on a chair far away from him, could smell the stench of excrement as well. He raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose and said in disgust. "If it doesn't stink, can you call it excrement? Clean him up quickly. When we get out of here, he can't cry!"     

Tao Shui almost cried because of the stench, but he had no choice but to remove the wet diaper from the child's butt. The procedure was excruciating as if a bucket of excrement was poured over his head. It smelled so bad.     

After Tao Shui threw away the wet, smelly diaper, he returned only to see the child still crying. When he saw He Wuhan frowning, he immediately went over and picked up the child.     

"President He, don't be angry. This child may be hungry, I'll get him something to eat, then he'll stop crying."     

He Wuhan waved his hands in annoyance. "Then hurry up. The sound of his crying makes me angry. I feel like strangling him!"     

Tao Shui still had some conscience. Although he had done some despicable things with He Wuhan, he was still very patient and compassionate with the children.     

If it weren't for the fact that he had been taking care of the child in the last two days, the child would have suffered terribly.     

Tao Shui scooped three spoonfuls of powdered milk into the bottle. He mixed it with warm water and shook the bottle with all his might.     

When the pacifier was stuffed into the child's mouth, the child immediately stopped crying. Tao Shui was finally relieved.     

Seeing how cute the child was, Tao Shui couldn't help but laugh and said to He Wuhan, "President He, look how cute this child is. As long as he gets something to eat, he is very easy to please."     

"Of course he's cute!" He Wuhan smacked his thigh, "This child is worth a billion! How can he not be cute? Who in this world is cuter than him?"     

Tao Shui looked at He Wuhan helplessly. In He Wuhan's eyes, he judged a person's worth depending on how much they were worth.     

Just like this child, if Liang Zixuan didn't give the money and meet He Wuhan's demands, He Wuhan could literally strangle this child at any moment!     

Last night, when He Wuhan held the child by the neck, Tao Shui's heart almost jumped out of his chest. Fortunately, Han Yuanjun had compromised, otherwise, he really did not know what would happen to the child.     

"President He..." Tao Shui suddenly looked at He Wuhan and asked cautiously, "If Liang Zixuan does what you say, if we can really leave Imperial City, then this child... you won't make things difficult for him, will you?"     

"If we can really get away and have so much money to spend, why would I make things difficult for him? If I killed this child, I'll be carrying a target on my back. It's not worth it!"         

He Wuhan clearly understood that even if one could do wrong things in life, one still couldn't go too far.     

He could do all kinds of illegal things, but he couldn't kill people, because when someone's life was taken away by him, not only would the wanted posters be put up all over the city, but the sin in his heart would also weigh him down for the rest of his life.     

Unless he were forced to do so, He Wuhan wouldn't choose this path of no return.     

Tao Shui immediately calmed down, his hand gently patted the child's back. He smiled as he said, "Didn't Liang Zixuan already send you the money? When we get on the jet, we'll definitely be able to leave Imperial City safely."     

He Wuhan said nothing, but his lips lifted slightly, and a proud smile appeared there. His expression was also full of satisfaction, as if the whole world belonged to him.     

• • • •     

Hour after hour passed, and there was still no movement from He Wuhan's side. The people from the Hou Family were getting restless.     

Yu Meilin shouted angrily at Wei Xiaofan. "Didn't you already transfer the money? Why hasn't He Wuhan called us? Isn't it time he returned the child to us?"     

Wei Xiaofan really didn't know how to persuade Yu Meilin anymore. He just kept his mouth shut and pretended not to hear her.     

Yu Meilin wanted to continue scolding him, but Hou Shihong held her back. "What do you want to argue about? Is it up to Wei Xiaofan to decide when He Wuhan would call? Why do you have to panic at this time? Shut up!"     

Yu Meilin pouted and muttered softly, "Shut up, shut up! I'm always told to be quiet. We've given He Wuhan baskets of money. If he doesn't give the child back to us, then the money will be gone, and it'll all be for nothing!"     

Hou Shihong glared at Yu Meilin and shook his head impatiently. "I said shut up!"     

Yu Meilin could only shut up and glared angrily at Wei Xiaofan.
