An indescribable chill and disappointment instantly swept over Sun Neng's entire body, even briefly overshadowing his fear of Qin Yang.

His heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an icy hand and then mercilessly torn apart, the pain almost suffocating him.

He looked at Sun Yu's face, which looked particularly ugly because he was so eager to distance himself from the situation. His eyes quickly changed from initial shock and disbelief to a complex emotion mixed with disappointment, anger, and a chilling feeling.

So that's what happened... he raised such an ungrateful wretch! A complete and utterly selfish beast!

After a brief moment of distraction, Sun Neng suddenly came to his senses.

Now is not the time to be sad or disappointed!

Qin Yang is still right in front of me!

This ruthless man dared to force his way into the Sun family's gate; what else wouldn't he dare to do?

If you can't rely on your son, then you can only rely on yourself!

Moreover… Sun Yu’s rebellious behavior reminded him!

Yes! Shifting the blame!

Since this unfilial son is so heartless, then don't blame the father for being unjust!

Sun Neng took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turbulent emotions in his heart. He quickly put on a fawning smile that was even uglier than crying, and slammed his forehead heavily on the ground with a dull thud.

"Mr. Qin! Mr. Qin, please see the truth!" Sun Neng's voice was even more shrill and fearful than Sun Yu's, even carrying a desperate, do-or-die resolve. "It's this unfilial son! It's all this unfilial son's fault!"

He abruptly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Qin Yang, his finger trembling as he pointed at Sun Yu beside him, his voice hoarse as he accused, "Mr. Qin, you don't know! This unfilial son! I've spoiled him rotten since he was little! He's lawless and arrogant!"

"It was him! He coveted Miss Shangguan's beauty and the Shangguan family's power, and was so blinded by greed that he repeatedly provoked you, Mr. Qin! He wanted to harm you!" Sun Neng was now desperate, his facial muscles twitching with excitement, spittle flying everywhere. "I... I was wrong as a father for not disciplining my son properly! But I was also deceived by this unfilial son!"

"It was him! He's the one who misled me! He said Mr. Qin was nothing to fear, that he could be easily manipulated! It was all his bad idea!" Sun Neng's voice grew increasingly agitated, as if he wanted to dump all the blame on Sun Yu. "Mr. Qin, you are a magnanimous man! Please forgive me this time, considering that my Sun family is still of some use!"

At this point, Sun Neng's voice abruptly stopped, a resolute and ruthless glint flashing in his eyes. He kowtowed heavily again, his voice rising abruptly, carrying a chilling plea:

"As for this unfilial son! This good-for-nothing who is more trouble than he's worth! He offended Mr. Qin and deserves to die! Please, Mr. Qin, do as you see fit!"

"Kill him! Please, Mr. Qin, kill him! Just consider it... just consider it cleaning up the Sun family's mess!" Sun Neng's voice trembled slightly, but his tone was unusually firm. "As long as you, Mr. Qin, can calm down! As long as you can spare the Sun family! You can take this rebellious son's life anytime! I will not say a word!"

"..."

An even more eerie silence fell over the living room.

The only sounds were the heavy breathing of the father and son, and the soft whimpers of the injured security guard out of fear.

Sun Yu was struck as if by lightning. He suddenly raised his head and looked at his father in disbelief.

What did he hear?

Father… actually wants Qin Yang to kill him?!

To protect herself and the Sun family, she was willing to sacrifice her own son without hesitation?!

His accusations against his father earlier, though shameless, stemmed more from extreme fear and the instinct for survival. But now, his father's words were like the most vicious curse, each syllable a cold knife piercing his heart!

A chill deeper than death instantly enveloped him.

"Old man! What...what did you say?!" Sun Yu's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, his voice distorted by extreme anger and fear, and he practically spat out those words through clenched teeth.

"What did I say?" Sun Neng had completely abandoned all pretense of civility. Looking at his son's shocked and furious expression, a morbid sense of pleasure welled up inside him. He sneered, his face full of resentment and mockery. "I said you should die! I'll make you, you useless piece of trash, apologize to Mr. Qin!"

"You unfilial son! What have you been good at since you were a child, besides causing trouble? You've disgraced the Sun family!" Sun Neng, disregarding Qin Yang's presence, pointed at Sun Yu's nose and cursed, "Now that you've offended a true god like Mr. Qin, you still want to drag the entire Sun family down with you? You're dreaming!"

"I...I'll drag you down with me?!" Sun Yu trembled with rage, forgetting his fear, and scrambled to his feet, pointing at Sun Neng's nose and screaming, "You old bastard! It was your own greed that led you to try and curry favor with higher-ups, which is why you wanted to target Mr. Qin! What does this have to do with me!"

"Bullshit!" Sun Neng also stood up abruptly. Although he still didn't dare to approach Qin Yang, he confronted his son aggressively. "If you hadn't been whispering in my ear every day, saying that Qin Yang was just a poor kid who got lucky, would I have even considered this? If you hadn't been so confident that you could handle Shangguan Wan, would things have developed to this point?"

"I'm just being senile? That's because you're old and blind, and you can't judge people properly!" Sun Yu retorted without backing down. "Who was it that thought Qin Yang was easy to bully and wanted to use him as a stepping stone? It was you! You old fool!"

"You little beast! How dare you insult me?!" Sun Neng's face turned ashen with anger, and he raised his hand to strike.

"So what if I curse you? You old bastard who would sell your own son to save your own life!" Sun Yu retorted, his eyes filled with madness and despair. "Go ahead and kill me right now! I'm going to die anyway! I'll take you with me to hell!"
