"Master! Young Master! Something terrible has happened!"
His voice was distorted by extreme fear, filled with unbelievable panic:
"Someone's in! Someone's broken in!"
"He's all alone! He fought his way in through the main gate! Our men couldn't stop him at all!!"
The man's words struck Sun Neng and Sun Yu like a thunderbolt!
They've broken in?
one person?
They fought their way in?
Unable to stop them?!
Sun Neng's pupils contracted sharply, and a chill instantly shot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head! He subconsciously thought of his conversation with his son earlier, and of that name!
Sun Yu's face turned deathly pale, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his lips quivered, but he couldn't utter a single word.
The unease and speculation they had just felt now seemed to have turned into a cold reality, gripping them tightly by the throat!
Could it be...?
Is it really Qin Yang?!
He actually dared to come knocking on our door?!
And in this way?!
The security guard's shrill scream, like a rooster crowing as if its neck had been choked, echoed in the spacious, luxurious living room. Every word was like a needle chilled to ice, piercing deep into the hearts of Sun Neng and Sun Yu.
These words, when combined, form a storm of fear that can almost destroy a person's reason.
The father and son stood frozen in place, their faces as pale as dead fish just pulled from ice water. Their blood seemed to freeze instantly, their hands and feet were icy cold, and even breathing became extremely difficult. It felt as if an invisible hand was gripping their chests tightly.
That name, like a curse, swirled and magnified uncontrollably in their minds—Qin Yang!
It really is him!
He actually came!
Moreover, they stormed in using this... almost barbaric, completely unreasonable, and disregarding the Sun family as nothing method!
They didn't even have time to process this terrible fact, or even to make any decent reaction.
"Tap...tap...tap..."
A series of clear, steady footsteps, even carrying a strange rhythm, came from the direction of the foyer.
The footsteps were neither fast nor slow, each step seemingly landing precisely on a specific point, striking at the nerves of Sun Neng and Sun Yu, which were already stretched to their limit.
Compared to the previous security guard's panicked, stumbling footsteps, this sound seemed so calm, so...desperate.
It represents absolute confidence, a powerful ability to see all obstacles as nothing.
Sun Neng and Sun Yu almost mechanically and slowly turned their stiff necks, looking in the direction from which the sound came.
The first thing that catches the eye is a tall and slender figure.
The person was dressed in seemingly ordinary casual wear: a black T-shirt, dark jeans, and clean sneakers. Such attire is commonplace on bustling city streets, utterly unremarkable.
However, when his face was fully exposed to the bright crystal chandelier in the living room, Sun Neng and Sun Yu's hearts felt as if they had been gripped tightly by an iron fist and suddenly stopped beating!
It was a young face with well-defined features, quite handsome, but at this moment, his deep eyes were frighteningly calm, like two pools of ice that had never melted, showing no emotion whatsoever.
There were no signs of a fight on him; his clothes were neat and his hair was perfectly styled. It was as if the man who had swept through the enemy lines and knocked down dozens of elite security guards from the Sun family was not him at all.
He walked on calmly, his gaze sweeping indifferently over everything in the living room, over the security guard slumped on the floor, trembling, over the priceless antique decorations, and finally, it landed on Sun Neng and his son Sun Yu, who were pale as death, as if they had seen a ghost.
It's him!
It really is him!
Qin Yang!
Despite having suspected it beforehand, when Sun Neng and Sun Yu actually saw Qin Yang appear here with such an aura of supreme authority, they still felt an indescribable chill, as if a venomous snake had instantly coiled around their souls, leaving them feeling no warmth from head to toe.
They could even clearly feel the tangible pressure emanating from Qin Yang's seemingly casual gaze, so heavy that they could hardly breathe, as if an invisible mountain had suddenly crashed down upon them!
The last shred of hope that had been lingering in his heart just moments before was now completely crushed.
All their power, all their wealth, all their reliance seemed to become as fragile as paper in front of this man, utterly vulnerable.
"Thump!"
There was almost no hesitation, and no communication whatsoever.
Sun Neng and Sun Yu, this father and son who usually wielded great influence and power in high society, were now like two spineless stray dogs. Their legs went weak, and they knelt down heavily in front of Qin Yang!
The knees struck the hard, cold marble floor with two dull thuds, which sounded particularly clear and particularly... humiliating in the deathly silent living room.
“Mr. Qin…”
Sun Yu's voice rang out first, thick with sobs and trembling uncontrollably. He didn't even dare to look up at Qin Yang's face, but pressed his forehead tightly against the cold ground, screaming with all his might, "Mr. Qin, spare me! Spare me!"
His body trembled like leaves falling in the autumn wind, and he spoke at an extremely fast pace, as if he was afraid that if he slowed down even for a second, he would be killed on the spot by the murderous god in front of him.
"This...this has nothing to do with me! It really has nothing to do with me!" Sun Yu's voice became sharp and shrill with fear. He turned his head sharply and pointed at his father, Sun Neng, who was also kneeling beside him. His voice was full of urgent evasion and vicious accusation, "It was...it was him! It was all my dad's idea!"
"It's him! He's gone senile! He's blinded by greed, trying to harm you, trying to harm Miss Shangguan!" Sun Yu's voice grew louder and louder, as if he wanted to use the volume to prove his innocence and purity. "I...I tried to persuade him! I really tried to persuade him! But he wouldn't listen! He's the head of the family, I...I had no choice!"
"Mr. Qin, you have a keen eye! Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor! This whole thing was orchestrated by my father from beginning to end! It has nothing to do with me... I have absolutely nothing to do with it! Please, please let me go! I'm still young, I don't want to die!"
He cried out at the top of his lungs, crawling on his knees to get away from his father, as if Sun Neng were the source of some plague.
This sudden shift in blame, this ruthless betrayal, left Sun Neng, kneeling to the side, completely dumbfounded.
He slowly raised his head in disbelief, turning his head to look at his son, the biological son he had placed high hopes on since childhood, carefully nurtured, and even spoiled to the extreme.
Sun Yu's face, contorted with fear, and the undisguised shirking and resentment in his eyes, were like a red-hot iron, branding his heart.
This is the son he has always been so proud of?
Is this the heir to the Sun family whom he has devoted countless efforts to cultivating?
At the critical moment of life and death, without the slightest hesitation, he immediately dumped all the responsibility on his father's shoulders like garbage! He didn't even show the slightest hesitation or remorse!
