Jin Liwei released a relieved breath after hearing the investigation results. Thank goodness that the accident wasn’t premeditated to specifically harm him. He didn’t want to stress his pregnant woman anymore than she already was right now. As soon as the relief came, however, it was replaced by cold-heartedness.
"What does Daddy want to do next? Meow~" Ketchup purred, eager to jump into action.
He thought carefully for a few moments. His emotional conversation with his baby girl just before she fell asleep played constantly inside his mind. She had been tearful, almost hysterical, while telling him that he couldn’t allow himself to be placed in a harmful situation ever again. He couldn’t die and leave her to be a widow and their children orphans so soon. She and their children—their entire family—should always be his number one priority. And that also meant ensuring his own safety at all times.
There was no denying that ever since he fell crazily in love with his baby girl and they got together, his own personality had mellowed quite a lot. He wasn’t as ruthless as before compared to when he was still single. The people close to him certainly noticed the change and so did his colleagues and employees at Jin Corporation. He wasn’t against this change in him because he had never felt so alive as he did right now with the woman he loved.
But after everything that happened today, he realized that allowing himself to mellow too much wasn’t a good thing. Some of his old ruthlessness was still needed in his life especially in protecting his beloved family and himself. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

If this was before his eye-opening conversation with his baby girl, he probably would just issue a reprimand to the ones at fault in the accident at the construction site, perhaps retrain them in security protocols for a few weeks, and then send them to work in other smaller construction projects for less pay for a set period of time. This was the type of merciful punishment the new and mellower Jin Liwei who was so in love with his fiancée would have given.
But now?
No way.
He decided that he needed to be thoroughly merciless in this case. After all, if he wasn’t so lucky and the pipes cracked his head instead of just bruising his back, he would have died and those workers would be charged with murder. Then his pregnant woman would become a widow before they even tied the knot in marriage and his human children would become orphans before they were even born. His heart froze as these thoughts appeared in his mind.
With a hard expression, he finally gave instructions to Ketchup on what to do next. "Use my name to inform the project managers to fire the foreman and the other worker. Give the two their final pay according to their work contracts. As for the ones who transported the pipes when the foreman was absent, their pay would also be deducted by 30%. In addition, I want everyone working in that construction project to undergo a mandatory safety protocol course again including the leaders and the medical personnel. Nobody is exempt. If someone misses even a day of training, fire that person immediately. There are many capable people to replace them."
