The fiery red sunset clouds looked as if they had been soaked in blood. (This is a description of a novel, likely written by lwxs520.)
In the residential area, the Su family, known for their boisterous behavior, attracted throngs of onlookers. They watched the farce with keen interest, offering no comment or opinion, merely enjoying the spectacle.
Ji Xiaoxiao's overwhelming killing intent horrified the entire Su family, especially Su's mother, who collapsed to the ground, her eyes looking down as the gleaming fruit knife pressed against her skin.
"You wouldn't dare kill me, hehe, hehe." In broad daylight, under the clear sky, even if Ji Xiaoxiao had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't dare to kill her.
Ji Xiaoxiao's lips curled up, forming a cruel arc.
"You really think I wouldn't dare to make a move?" Ji Xiaoxiao made a move, and with a light slash, Su's mother screamed in horror. The piercing noise forced the onlookers to take two steps back.
The head of the family, Mr. Su, shouted, "Du Shizhen, stop!"
Su's father stood with his hands behind his back, his face stern.
Ji Xiaoxiao scoffed and tossed aside the fruit knife. "What business do you Su family members have in my house?" Ji Xiaoxiao's words made it clear that they had no relation whatsoever.
Father Su was displeased, his brows furrowed. “You are still our Su family’s daughter-in-law, a member of our family. Your elder brother was murdered. He was the mayor of a city and was well-loved. We thought we should at least give him a lavish and grand funeral.”
“That’s right, that’s right,” the second and third sons of the Su family echoed. Du Shizhen, that foolish woman, was always generous, and they were determined to make a fortune from their eldest brother’s funeral.
"Birds of a feather flock together," the second and third sons of the Su family were shrewdly calculating, and Ji Xiaoxiao understood them in an instant.
Do you think she's easy prey? Hmph, don't you even know if your blunt knife can even scratch her skin? You're worried about a backlash and hurting yourself.
"Why should I pay for Su Bing's funeral?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked.
Mr. Su said matter-of-factly, "Just because you're a member of the Su family."
Ji Xiaoxiao clapped her hands. "Let's get a divorce."
Looking around, Ji Xiaoxiao said, "It's true that I, Du Shizhen, am rich, but no matter how rich I am, I won't give it to a bunch of ungrateful wretches like you."
The original owner was imprisoned in the basement for decades; don't tell me they didn't know. With Su Han's loose tongue, the head of the family, Su's father, knew 100%.
Looking at the kind old man, Ji Xiaoxiao spat directly in his face. In her past life, the original owner suffered endless torment, endless darkness, and the heartache of losing her child. The Su family all paid for it with their lives.
With a snap, Su's father's face displayed a variety of expressions.
"Du Shizhen, you really have no manners." Su's father opened his mouth, but seeing the two security guards beside Du Shizhen, he ultimately did not seek his own death.
They arrived full of excitement, but left dejected and crestfallen. The Su family was utterly dejected.
Four adults were crammed into the van.
"Dad, does Du Shizhen know?" The second daughter, Su Shuang, was a little uncertain.
Su's father neither confirmed nor denied it; it was a perfectly clear matter, so why bother explaining it?
"Dad, Du Shizhen escaped from the basement and found out we were involved. She's ruthless and will definitely not let us go." Su Xue, the third son of the Su family, said with a trembling voice. He was in his prime, had some money, and didn't want to die.
Su Shuang's mocking gaze fell on Su Xue, "Her name sounds like a woman's, and her personality is like a woman's too." She's cowardly, timid, and a disgrace to men.
He was a burly man, seven feet tall, and Su Xue harbored a deep hatred for those who mocked his name for not being manly enough. From childhood, Su Shuang had been at odds with him, and Su Xue had long held a grudge against Su Shuang. Today, Su Shuang had taken advantage of him, and if Su Xue didn't react, he wouldn't be worthy of being a man.
Shu Xu remained silent and punched Su Shuang in the face.
A heavy punch left Su Shuang's head spinning.
"Ah Xue, what are you doing?" Su's mother was sitting in the passenger seat of the van. She hurriedly turned over, but the seat belt prevented her from seeing anything from a distance.
"Old man, make them stop!" Father Su was the head of the family; if he just opened his mouth, these brats would be obedient.
Su's father let it develop as it pleased, and the van was always chartered at the same speed.
Back at the Su family's two-story villa, Su Shuang and Su Xue's wives had already prepared a meal.
At the restaurant table, Su Shuang and Su Xue's wife were staring in astonishment at the marks on their husband's face—purple and blue, with broken skin.
Men's fights begin and end with fists and feet, while women's battles begin with words, their clever tongues flowing endlessly without ever stopping.
The Su brothers parted on bad terms after a meal filled with cursing and arguing.
As night fell, Star City hid behind dark clouds.
The wind gradually picked up, and the trees around the villa rustled, threatening to snap in half. Inside, the villa was brightly lit, like a lone boat on a vast ocean.
Su Shuang's room.
Su Shuang gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. "You've got guts to lay a hand on my brother. You cowardly little rat who only dares to betray his own brother, I'm going to beat him to death."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and Su Shuang jumped up.
"Honey, don't be anxious or angry. You and Xue's brother are blood brothers. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. Don't be impulsive." Su Shuang's wife soothed Su Shuang from the side.
The director was right, but Su Shuang couldn't contain her anger. He had actually been rendered powerless to retaliate by a sissy. If word got out, how could he ever face anyone again?
Su Shuang spat, "No way, if I don't teach him a lesson, Su Xue won't know that I'm his real brother."
If you've lost face, then take it back.
Su Shuang reached the doorway, but his wife held him back desperately. She felt sorry for Su Shuang and harbored resentment towards her brother-in-law, Su Xue. However, she didn't want to let a man in a fit of rage do whatever he wanted. If Su Shuang wasn't careful, he might accidentally cripple Su Xue.
