Upon hearing this, Shu Tangyin became anxious and hurriedly said, "Grandpa..."

Shu Chang'an sneered, "You don't need to plead for him. Take care of yourself first! It's fine if you and he suffer misfortune, but don't drag our Shu family into it!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeve and said to Shu Haiqiang, Xiao Hongmei, and the injured bodyguards, "Let's go!"

Seeing this, Shu Xinyuan quickly chased after him: "Dad, we can talk this over..."

But Shu Chang'an ignored Shu Xinyuan completely, and angrily got into the car and left with his eldest son, daughter-in-law, and bodyguards.

As Shu Chang'an and his entourage left, a gloomy atmosphere settled over the scene.

Shu Xinyuan looked distressed and sighed, "Alas, I never expected things to turn out this way. Not only have we offended the Li family, but now even Dad doesn't care about us anymore."

Xu Yuehua said indignantly, "Your father only ever had eyes for your older brother, never for you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kicked the three of us out of the old house and forced Xiaoyin to marry that scumbag Li Zihao!"

Shu Tangyin held her parents' hands, her eyes filled with tears, and said, "Dad, Mom! This happened because of me. I will find a way to resolve it and won't drag you down with me."

Chen Yun saw that Shu Tangyin's family had fallen into a state of pessimism and despair.

He couldn't help but say, "Miss Shu, what are you doing? Didn't I just make it very clear that I would take responsibility for this and have the elders of the Li family bring Li Zihao to apologize in person within three days? Why are you all panicking and losing your composure?"

Shu Tangyin frowned and scolded, "Chen Yun, shut up!"

Chen Yun was taken aback.

Shu Tangyin said earnestly, "Chen Yun, I know you used to be a soldier and are very skilled. I also know you are upright and full of justice. But the Li family is too powerful; we ordinary people can't afford to offend them."

She paused, then said resolutely, "This whole thing started because of me. I won't implicate my family, and I certainly won't implicate you. I'll give you some money. Take it and flee Zhonghai as soon as possible. Go hide in another city for a while, and come back after I've resolved this."

Chen Yun understood.

She wanted to shoulder everything alone!

He said calmly, "I won't run away. The Li family isn't qualified to let me escape. Besides, I said that the elders of the Li family would bring Li Zihao to apologize, so they have to come."

Seeing that Chen Yun wouldn't listen to her advice and refused to leave, Shu Tangyin was furious: "You!"

Shu Xinyuan said, "Alright, alright, you two stop arguing. Since Chen Yun refuses to leave, let's take it one step at a time. Perhaps things will take a turn for the better!"

Shu Tangyin shook her head. She knew very well that Li Zihao was vindictive, so she couldn't be optimistic at all.

But Chen Yun was too stubborn and refused to leave.

She was helpless too!

...

In the magnificent living room of the Li family mansion.

Li Tianlin, the burly leader of the Black Tiger Gang, sat imposingly in his chair, his face terrifyingly dark.

His wife, Lai Miu Ling, and his son, Lee Tsz Ho, sat on his left and right sides respectively.

Shu Chang'an, along with Shu Haiqiang and Xiao Hongmei, stood trembling in front of Li Tianlin's family.

Li Tianlin spoke slowly, his voice filled with anger: "Grandpa Shu, you just said that Chen Yun sent you to deliver a message, asking my wife and I to take our son to apologize to him?"

Shu Chang'an lowered his head, not daring to meet Li Tianlin's gaze, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, Mr. Li!"

Li Tianlin laughed in fury: "Fine, very well! Someone actually dared to injure my son and even dared to demand that I go over and apologize to him. It seems that if a tiger doesn't show its power, it'll be mistaken for a sick cat!"

Shu Chang'an, Shu Haiqiang, and Xiao Hongmei were all terrified.

Li Tianlin suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Yan Laowu!"

A tall, ugly, and fierce-looking man with dead fish eyes, high cheekbones, and thin lips appeared and respectfully said, "Boss, your subordinate is here."

This man was Yan Feng, one of Li Tianlin's most capable subordinates. Because he was the fifth in his family, he was also known as Yan Laowu.

Yan Laowu was ruthless and had several lives on his hands. People in the underworld called him the Living Yama!

Li Tianlin instructed, "Yan Laowu, tomorrow you pick a group of men to avenge my son. Remember, don't let that Chen brat die too easily."

Yan Laowu grinned, revealing a chilling smile: "Yes, boss."

The next morning.

Shu Tangyin, Chen Yun, and her parents were having breakfast when they received a call from her grandfather, Shu Chang'an.

Over the phone, Shu Chang'an coldly warned, "Xiao Yin, you don't need to come to the company anymore. And don't blame me for not warning you, Mr. Li is completely enraged and has threatened to kill Chen Yun. If you don't want to die, you'd better not go with Chen Yun. Going to the Li family to beg for mercy is your only way out."

When Shu Tangyin heard that the Li family planned to kill Chen Yun, her face turned deathly pale.

After warning Shu Tangyin, Shu Chang'an didn't waste any more words and hung up the phone directly.

Seeing that his daughter's expression was strange, Shu Xinyuan frowned and asked, "Xiaoyin, who called? What did they say?"

Afraid of frightening her parents, Shu Tangyin didn't tell them everything, only saying, "It's nothing. Grandpa called to tell me I was fired and don't need to go back to work."

When Shu Xinyuan and Xu Yuehua learned that the old man had fired his daughter, they both fell silent, feeling very uncomfortable.

Chen Yun looked at Shu Tangyin, whose face was deathly pale, and knew that the phone call just now was not so simple.

Sure enough, Shu Tangyin put down her chopsticks and said to him, "Chen Yun, now that we're both unemployed, I'm planning to go out and see if I can find a suitable new job. Why don't you come with me?"

Chen Yun nodded: "Okay!"

After breakfast.

The two then went out.

Arriving at a nearby bus stop, the two chatted while waiting for the bus.

Shu Tangyin looked up at Chen Yun and said seriously, "Chen Yun, that phone call was from my grandfather. It wasn't just to tell me I didn't have to go to work. He also said that the Li family is planning to kill you!"

Chen Yun chuckled: "I can tell you were so scared your face turned pale just now."

Shu Tangyin spoke in a gentle tone, earnestly advising, "Chen Yun, the Li family is not to be trifled with. Just listen to me and go hide somewhere else for a while, okay?"

Chen Yun refused: "No!"

Shu Tangyin felt a deep sense of helplessness: "Why are you so stubborn?"

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Aren't you also very stubborn? You just refuse to believe that I can handle this matter well."

Shu Tangyin was stunned, her beautiful eyes meeting Chen Yun's.

Chen Yun's gaze was firm and unwavering!

Does he really have the confidence to handle this?

But that's the Li family!

Finally, she made up her mind and decided to go all out.

She nodded: "Okay, I believe you, I'll risk my life to accompany you!"

In fact, she had prepared for the worst. If Chen Yun really couldn't handle it in the end, she would rather kneel down and beg Li Zihao than let the Li family harm Chen Yun.

After all, Chen Yun was her benefactor, and she would feel guilty for the rest of her life if she caused Chen Yun to lose his life.

Just then, the bus arrived.

Originally, Shu Tangyin planned to take the bus to send Chen Yun to the station to run away.

Now that Chen Yun is unwilling to leave, she has no choice but to trust him.

However, deep down she was still worried that she wouldn't make it through this ordeal, so she took a bus with Chen Yun and headed straight for the amusement park.

If the end of the world is inevitable, at least try to be happy before you die.

She spent the whole day taking Chen Yun around, eating, drinking, and having fun.

Unbeknownst to her, the Li family was already searching the entire city for her and Chen Yun, and had begun hunting them down.

Night falls and the city lights come on.

Shu Tangyin pulled Chen Yun to the entrance of Jun'an Hotel.

Chen Yun asked curiously, "Didn't we have dinner at a farmhouse restaurant? Why did you bring me here again?"

Shu Tangyin smiled and said, "There's a charity auction being held here tonight. We've offended the Li family, and we don't know how much longer we'll live, so I wanted to do charity one last time and contribute my meager strength."

Chen Yun said with dissatisfaction, "You said you believed in me, how can you still be so pessimistic? You don't believe me at all!"

Shu Tangyin was about to explain that that wasn't what she meant!

Just then, a white BMW 7 Series pulled up beside them, and a handsome man and a tall, beautiful woman got out.

The handsome man is Han Xudong.

The tall and beautiful woman is Zhao Qingyu.

Zhao Qingyu and Han Xudong are also here tonight to participate in the charity auction.

As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Chen Yun standing with a stunningly beautiful woman with a slender figure, chatting and laughing. Instantly, her face turned frosty!
