The question Xu Ling asked froze the entire household, leaving both Xu Daqiang and Zhang Xueping at a loss for words.
After a long consideration, Xu Daqiang said, "I think, he'll definitely come looking for trouble with us."
"We must be on guard against him now, after all..."
Xu Daqiang thought of what Ye Ming had been through before, being cuckolded and beaten up by Wang Hai, something no man could tolerate.
Now having killed Wang Hai and become a murderer, he might well continue to kill, reasoning that killing one was as good as killing more—it would only be to his profit.
Remembering how they had once insulted Ye Ming without mercy, Xu Daqiang was filled with regret; his whole family was probably doomed.
Just then, Xu Daqiang suddenly had an idea and said to Xu Ling, "Even if Ye Ming isn't planning on hurting us, we should have a way to deal with it; didn't Young Master Chen say he would stand with you before? Maybe he can help us."
