"They say that a day as husband and wife is a hundred days of kindness, and a hundred days as husband and wife is as deep as the sea. Dad, Mom was just confused for a moment. Please forgive her."
Sun Bailing was always impartial and incorruptible, and no matter how much Sun Qingwu and Sun Qingyun pleaded, it was to no avail.
Seeing that Sun Bailing remained unmoved despite their best efforts, Sun Qingwu's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
“Our whole family has served you hand and foot for so many years, and you don’t even appreciate it. Then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Sun Qingwu took off his coat, revealing the explosives strapped to his body, and waved to Sun Qingyun. Sun Qingyun then led his entire family away quickly.
Chen Yuanshan and Xu Tianzhong realized something was wrong and got up to grab Sun Qingwu, but it was too late.
Sun Qingwu gripped the fuse, shouting, "Don't move! If you move again, I'll take you all down with me!"
Sun Bailing was extremely disappointed and engaged in martial arts with Sun Qing.
"Don't involve the innocent, let them go."
Sun Qingwu sneered, "I know you're not afraid of death. Only with them around can you have a proper talk with me."
After saying that, Sun Qingwu ordered Chen Yuanshan and Xu Tianzhong to "step back".
Chen Yuanshan and Xu Tianzhong retreated to the table.
Sun Qingwu stared at Sun Bailing and said.
“Sun Bailing, since you’re not going to show any mercy, then I won’t bother to say anything either.”
I have three conditions. If you fulfill them, I will spare your lives. If you dare to refuse, I will take you all with me on my journey.
Sun Bailing glanced at Hua Li and said, "Tell me your conditions."
"First, release my mother and older brother; second, hand over those two jade pendants; third, my mother has served you for so many years, she has worked hard even if she hasn't done anything great, give my mother 20,000 yuan as compensation. As long as you do these things, we will leave each other alone in the future."
Sun Bailing shook his head with a wry smile, "Sun Qingwu, I never expected that you, who grew up by my side, would be so ignorant and foolish."
Xiao Rong has violated the law, so how can I just let her go? Also, don't tell me about the saying "a day as husband and wife is a hundred days of kindness." Your mother and I are only husband and wife in name, just so that you and your orphan mother won't be bullied. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Rong if I have ever touched a single hair on her head.
Besides, we have a nanny at home, so how could she serve me? I only took you and your child in because she's a good friend of Su-yin..."
Sun Bailing drew his sidearm and aimed it at Sun Qingwu.
"Your choice is either to surrender voluntarily, or for me to kill you."
Sun Qingwu had no intention of actually dying, but he was caught in a dilemma with Sun Bailing pointing a gun at him.
"Dad, can you really bear to watch my son and I die?"
When force didn't work, Sun Qingwu started playing the emotional card.
If Sun Qingwu was only targeting him, Sun Bailing could let it go, but threatening him with the life of someone he cared about was something he would never forgive.
“He brought this upon himself and deserves to die,” Sun Bailing angrily rebuked.
A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Sun Qingwu's eyes as he tore open the ropes binding him with one hand and removed the explosives strapped to his body.
After pulling the fuse, Sun Qingwu threw the explosives at Sun Bailing and turned to run out the door.
A gunshot rang out, and Sun Qingwu fell to the ground. At the same time, a small figure leaped into the air and kicked the explosives out of the window.
boom!
With a deafening explosion, Luo Yan landed on her feet and rolled on the ground...
Xiao Xiu caught Luo Yan as she rolled over and tucked her under the sofa.
In the deafening explosion, all the window glass shattered, and shards of glass rained down. Xiao Xiu shielded Luo Yan in his arms, shielding her with his own body.
Luo Yan looked up and saw that Xiao Xiu's face and body were covered in blood. Without thinking twice, she grabbed Xiao Xiu and took him into her space.
Xiao Xiu was covered in glass shards, especially on his back.
Luo Yan first gave Xiao Xiu some spiritual spring water to drink, and then used the spiritual spring water to clean the wound.
Some glass shards were washed away with water, but many others were embedded in her skin. Luo Yan didn't have any professional tools, so she couldn't just pull them out by hand.
...
The moment the explosives detonated, Sun Bailing shielded Hua Li and crawled under the table. Xu Tianzhong stood behind Sun Bailing, using his frail body to form a solid wall.
Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu were too fast; Chen Yuanshan didn't have time to kick away the explosives or catch Luo Yan.
Was he getting old? Chen Yuanshan, filled with deep self-doubt, also crawled under the table.
Hua Li didn't have time to see who had protected her; she scrambled to her feet and frantically searched for Luo Yan.
The living room was a mess, and Sun Qingwu lay in a pool of blood, groaning. There was no sign of the two little ones.
"Yanyan! Take a break!" Hua Li cried out as Chen Yuanshan picked her up and took her out the door.
"The children are fine. You wait outside, I'll bring them out right away."
Hua Li knew she couldn't cause trouble, so she nodded with tears in her eyes.
Chen Yuanshan was wearing leather shoes with hard soles so he didn't have to worry about hurting his feet. He walked back to the living room, kicked Sun Qingwu unconscious, and flipped over the sofa.
Luo Yan looked up, tears streaming down her face, and called out to Chen Yuanshan, "Brother, brother."
Xiao Xiu is injured, quickly take Xiao Xiu to the hospital.
When Chen Yuanshan saw that Xiao Xiu had bloodstains on her body and her clothes were wet, and upon closer inspection, he saw that there were many pieces of broken glass stuck in her back, his expression immediately changed.
Chen Yuanshan carefully picked up Xiaoxiu, then let Luo Yan climb onto his back, carrying one on his back and holding the other as they walked out of the living room...
The explosion was deafening, and everyone in the East Courtyard rushed towards the Sun family's house.
Those with cars should send a car to take Hua Li and her daughter, along with Aunt Shi, to the hospital. Those with telephones at home should call the police station.
They were all well-trained soldiers, and they handled the situation quickly and efficiently.
Although Sun Bailing was unharmed, his heart was riddled with wounds. He sat blankly in the living room, which reeked of gunpowder, unable to recover for a long time.
Hong Junyi walked in and saw the distraught Sun Bailing. He patted Sun Bailing's drooping shoulder with his big hand.
It would be unbearable for anyone to feel this way when the child they raised with their own hands actually tried to kill them. Hong Junyi didn't know how to comfort him, so he silently stayed by Sun Bailing's side.
After the police arrived, they took away Sun Qingwu, who had been shot in the leg, and Chen Yuanshan followed him back to the station to give a statement.
It was late at night. The neighbors helped clean up the living room, removed all the damaged windows and put them in the yard, and then went home.
Hong Junyi asked Sun Bailing to come home with him, but Sun Bailing shook his head and refused, telling Hong Junyi to go back and rest.
The entire building fell silent, leaving only Sun Bailing sitting alone, his solitary figure appearing even more lonely.
Outside the courtyard, a small figure rushed over, shattering the moonlight on the ground, and ran into the living room to Sun Bailing's side, sweetly calling out, "Grandpa."
Sun Bailing turned his head blankly and looked over. Luo Yan raised the new handkerchief in her hand to wipe Sun Bailing's tears.
"Yanyan?"
Sun Bailing looked up at the doorway, but there were no adults with him.
Picking up Luo Yan, Sun Bailing's face was serious. "Who told you to run around like that, hmm?"
Luo Yan wasn't afraid at all. She hugged Sun Bailing's neck and comforted the sad Sun Bailing.
The little girl was worried about him, so she ran all the way from the hospital to find him. Although Sun Bailing pretended to be fierce, his heart had already softened into a lump of mud.
Sun Bailing picked up Luo Yan and headed out to the hospital.
He had to pull himself together, send the little girl back to Hua Li, and go see his old comrade who had risked his life to protect him.
Because of the bombing, the entire East Wing was under martial law, and the guards had no choice but to let Sun Bailing pass despite repeated attempts to dissuade him.
