The Crazy Son-In-Law

Upon seeing the situation, Xiao Shun halted, staring at Mei in disbelief.

Her condition was dire; a dagger piercing her heart would result in massive blood loss. Even if a powerful immortal arrived, there would be no way to save her without immediate intervention.

But at this critical moment, Mei unexpectedly refused his offer of help!

Just as Xiao Shun made up his mind to save her first and talk later, Mei’s words left him speechless.

“Mr. Xiao, I know you are a good person. I believe you have the ability to fulfill your promise to Yu, and I believe you have the ability to save me. But have you considered my feelings?” Mei’s voice trembled.

From their brief interaction, Xiao Shun could tell that Mei was not a promiscuous person. Despite her inappropriate contact with Tan Haohan and Sha Hai, it was all in the interest of ensuring a better future for Qin Yu. Though her body was tainted, her soul was pure.

Unfortunately, the despicable actions of Tan Ji and others had tarnished this once pure and noble soul, ultimately condemning her to hell.

“Since the moment I was violated by Sha Hai, I no longer wanted to live. But I couldn’t just die like that. Later, I hid these things from Yu, and even disregarded his advice to work as a spy around Tan Haohan. Although I didn’t live happily, whenever I could still contribute to Yu despite my tainted body, I felt a bit of joy,” Mei murmured, her gaze growing distant.

Xiao Shun remained silent. He listened to Mei’s selfless tale as a faithful audience. This was a pitiful woman, and Sha Hai was undoubtedly the chief culprit behind all this tragedy, with Tan Haohan playing the role of an executioner. As for Tan Ji and others, they were undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

All of this, Qin Yu was still kept in the dark about!

“Mr. Xiao, I’m very tired now. Can you let me rest for a while? Let me rest without worries,” Mei looked at Xiao Shun with a poignant smile.

Xiao Shun nodded heavily. Although he appeared calm on the surface, inside, a raging fire was already brewing. He hadn’t known Mei for long, but that didn’t hinder his anger towards her situation.

How could such a good girl end up in such a state in the end?

“Thank… thank…”

With a satisfied smile, Mei slowly closed her eyes.

“Rest. When you come back to life again, everything will be different,” Xiao Shun said to himself, then gently covered Mei with his clothes.

One hour later, at the Tan Family Manor.

“Boom!”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

After a loud noise, the heavy iron gate at the entrance of the manor collapsed to the ground.

Immediately, three tall figures appeared in front of the panicked security guards.

A security team leader glared angrily at the three, “Who are you? Do you know where this is?”

Among the three, a young man with a sardonic smile said, “Hey, is this the home of Tan Haohan, the richest man Tan?”

The team leader erupted, “You dare to cause trouble here despite knowing where this is? You’re asking for death!”

Before he could finish, he was knocked unconscious by a swift blow.

With a grin, the young man turned to his companion, “Duan, you really can’t shake off your habit of talking too much.”

Duan shrugged, “Zhuang, your fiery temper hasn’t changed at all.”

Watching the two idlers, Xiao Shun frowned, “Let’s focus on the task!”

“Right!”

Zhuang Jin and Duan Jia exchanged a smile, then strolled over to a group of security guards, mocking them.

“What… what are you going to do?” the guards quivered.

Calling them guards was a stretch; they were more like gatekeepers.

“We’re not doing anything. Kindly clear the way, we want to see your Mr. Tan,” Duan said with a smirk.

“The… the boss isn’t here!”

“Not here?” Duan furrowed his brow, “That’s strange. I heard his car returned this afternoon.”

“Damn, why so much nonsense!”

Zhuang Jin couldn’t stand it and, with a roar, brandished a baseball bat and charged into the group of staff. After a few rounds, several people lay on the ground.

The only survivor, facing Zhuang Jin’s menacing grin, stuttered, “B… boss, not here!”

“Not here?” Duan furrowed his brow, “That’s strange. I heard his car returned this afternoon.”

“Damn, why so much nonsense!”

Zhuang Jin couldn’t stand it and, with a roar, brandished a baseball bat and charged into the group of staff. After a few rounds, several people lay on the ground.

The only survivor, facing Zhuang Jin’s menacing grin, stuttered, “B… boss, not here!”

He wasn’t one of the elite bodyguards; he was just a maintenance worker keeping order at the gate. He had never witnessed such a scene.

Under his revelations, Xiao Shun and his companions finally learned Tan Haohan’s current location.

“You’re smart to talk. Get lost!” Zhuang Jin kicked the man, who stumbled away in fear before running off.

Witnessing this, Duan couldn’t help but exclaim, “Tsk, tsk, tsk, these people nowadays are only responsive to violence!”

“That’s why your methods are useless!” Zhuang Jin chuckled smugly.

“Let’s go!” With that, Xiao Shun strode purposefully towards the nearby manor.

He had come here tonight because he had run out of patience with Tan Haohan’s games. Mei’s ordeal had filled Xiao Shun with boundless anger. With Sha Hai dead, Tan Haohan was nothing more than a toothless tiger. There was no need to be overly concerned.

As they advanced through the garden unimpeded, they encountered a group of guards as they reached the manor’s entrance.

A bald man approached the three with a sneer, “You’ve got some nerve to come here and cause trouble!”

Xiao Shun, unperturbed, uttered two words, “Get lost.”

“Seeking death!” The bald man roared and aimed a side kick at Xiao Shun’s face.

Simultaneously, a golden light flashed, and a whip-like leg struck out, slicing through the air. As the two collided, the bald man howled in agony, collapsing to the ground.

“Ahh!”

He writhed in pain, while a shod foot lay quietly beside him.

“Get them all!”

The remaining guards, now roused, drew their weapons and rushed towards Xiao Shun and his companions.
