Chapter 216: I Will Help You In Your Death Wish!
Yu Shijin was not at all embarrassed. He greeted Su Ruohua very politely, his voice slightly subdued. “Auntie.”
“Is Mr. Yu ill?” Su Ruohua had noticed Yu Shijin’s pale face.
She was so shocked by his pale face that she didn’t even ask why he was here.
Before Yu Shijin could answer, someone else squeezed his way forward from behind her.
Dugu Heng pushed the door and said, “Let’s go in first.”
Inside the house, Su Huiqing had already finished her water and was looking at the approaching Dugu Heng and Su Huiqing. She showed no signs of surprise but just glanced at Uncle Chen. “Uncle Chen, serve tea, please.”
That face was as fresh and pristine as always.
Empress Su had come back with Su Ruohua, and was full of energy.
But the fox was completely stunned the moment it noticed Yu Shijin.
Uncle Chen knew Yu Shijin as he had stayed at Su Huiqing’s villa before and was practically family. As a result, Uncle Chen was more friendly and familiar with Yu Shijin than with Dugu Heng.
Yu Shijin picked up Empress Su by the neck and casually stood by the window.
His fingers stroked Empress Su’s reddish fur. His black eyes darkened as he bent over slightly. Su Huiqing was giving her full attention to Su Ruohua.
He lit a cigarette and headed over to the balcony, where he called the chief detective on the phone. He asked in a calm voice, “How are things?”
But Empress Su trembled in his hands.
It just felt that Yu Shijin still possessed an indescribable cold viciousness.
“Madam doesn’t wish to return to the Ning Family.” Chief detective didn’t beat around the bush.
Yu Shijin flicked his cigarette ash, his voice serene. “Put me on speakerphone.”
Chief detective was still at the airport and immediately understood the boss’ intentions. He turned on the speaker phone function.
Ning Baokun was standing beside him, making a big fuss. “Let me see the Old Master. How dare you make me return to the Ning Family…”
Yu Shijin let go of Empress Su, placing it down on the ground. His fringe covered the malevolence in his eyes. “I let you off last night for certain reasons. If you think this means I am a kind-hearted person, I am sorry for the misunderstanding.”
Empress Su could feel the malevolent aura emanating from his body.
It scurried to a far corner to hide.
Chief detective hung up the phone and looked at Ning Baokun. “Don’t blame me for not reminding you. The number of people who had died by boss’ hands can make up the population of an entire city. You decide whether you want to return to the Ning Family.”
He smirked when he saw Ning Baokun’s face change.
If he had not wisely called Ms Su over last night, the Yu Family residence would be the site of another massacre.
How else did the boss manage to become so famous after that one battle? How else did he attain the status of one half of the Double Kings?
It was all achieved by bloodshed.
Boss’ mother might have had her ego boosted over the past few days, and ended up forgetting her place.
Unfortunately, even the boss’ own subordinates felt that her position was far inferior to that of Ms Su’s.
Ning Baokun boarded the plane, trembling and face completely pale.
After she left, the chief detective glanced at Chu Xuning with a curl on his lips. “Young Master Chu, did Madam really give birth to boss?”
“I don’t know.” Chu Xuning took a puff on his cigarette. He was completely disgusted by the entire affair. “But I remember that the Ning Family has never treated Master Yu well. Now that Master Yu has attained success and recognition, they are all trying to take advantage of his fame.”
Meanwhile at Su Huiqing’s.
Yu Shijin hung up and glanced at Empress Su. His gaze was cold and profound. “What are you still waiting there for? Didn’t you hear her call you?”
Still trembling, Empress Su immediately scuttled over to the main hall.
It only felt somewhat safer after it settled upon its owner’s shoulders.
Su Huiqing sat on the sofa with one arm propped up against the back. Her eyes were clear and distinct. “So what happened with the two of you?”
“Um, let’s not talk about that first.” Dugu Heng sat up straight and looked at Su Huiqing. “Tomorrow, the two of you can head down to the Dugu Family for a look. I will have someone pick an auspicious day, to introduce you to people at the International Association. What do you think?”
At least he knew that in this family, Su Huiqing had Su Ruohua’s highest regards.
Everyone else instinctively listened to Su Huiqing.
Su Huiqing glanced at him and said, “My mother has final say.”
Su Ruohua was slightly taken aback. Even Dugu Heng couldn’t help stealing another glance at Su Huiqing. For some inexplicable reason, he just felt that he liked this child.
“Then that’s settled.” Su Huiqing glanced at Dugu Heng meaningfully. The fact that he was injured did not escape her eyes.
Su Ruohua had gone overseas to settle some merchandising business…
She would have passed by Southeast Asia on the way.
Su Huiqing stood up and went upstairs.
She tucked one hand in her pocket while typing in her cell phone with the other. She entered the Demon Concentration Campsite.
Number One Doctor Gideon: Apollo, you crazy man. You dared to challenge the Dark Angels? Don’t you know that they have complete control over the firearms market in Southeast Asia? How dare you drag me into it…
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: Doctor, calm down. Who knew that the Dark Angels actually joined forces with Master San? By the way, Dugu, did you already know that they have joined forces?
Meanwhile, Dugu Yusheng was casually reclining against the back of his chair and typing lightly on the keyboard.
Number One Intelligence Agency Dugu: I am just in charge of selling intelligence.
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: Damn you! You knew, but you didn’t inform me! I am going to the International Association to bomb Dugu’s hideout! Don’t any of you try and stop me!
Bai Yi’s eyes narrowed. He was just reading a document sent over by his subordinate.
He put down the document and typed a message into his cell phone.
Number One Police Officer Bai Yi: Perfect. Hurry up and go bomb the place. After that, I will capture all of you in one swoop and lock you bunch of terrorists into the International Prison.
Number One Thief Squash: Apollo, how did you make it back alive? I am curious.
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: I was doomed but unexpectedly bumped into Dugu Heng, that lunatic. I don’t know why he suddenly appeared. Aiya, I won’t talk about this anymore. King, I saw that you have come online. Quickly read through our private chat. That bunch of folks have come up with a new batch of firearms. See if you have any solution. I must bomb them back in revenge!
Number One Police Officer Bai Yi: Don’t act like I am not here.
Su Huiqing changed her profile to A Life Of Overturn. She then sent a message.
A Life Of Overturn: Apollo, you sought me out only after things have calmed down.
A Life Of Overturn: Gideon, I have a bottle of potion here, related to the virus. I will mail it to you. You can then go to Corsi Island and seek out Mi Jiu. Mi Jiu is very good at researching viruses. Thereafter, send me the research results.”
A Life Of Overturn: Bai Yi, since you are so free, why don’t you monitor the Dark Angels’ movements more closely? I just received news from Chi Yue. They have already transferred the main bulk of their firearms to a small island to the south of the International Association.”
Number One Police Officer Bai Yi: …I will head off first.
A Life Of Overturn: Bye.
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: Wait a minute. King, you are so busy?
A Life Of Overturn: Mmm, the lunatic you mentioned is at my house right now.
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: Damn!
Number One Thief Squash: Wait a minute, don’t leave yet. Let’s set a date to pit our skills against each other!
A Life Of Overturn: One more thing, Apollo. Have you done any firearms deals with anyone lately?
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: There are countless people who have bought firearms from me. The Dugu Family, Ye Family and Song San have all sent men to contact me. There is also someone called Yu Shiyue. I heard that before Master Yu’s return, he was the highest-ranking in the Yu Family.”
Number One Thief Squash: Guys, don’t ignore me…
Number One Doctor Gideon: However, Master Yu’s battle at the International Battlefield was legendary. This Yu Shiyue has probably been forgotten by everyone?
A Life Of Overturn: Don’t sell to him next time.
Number One Arms Dealer Sun God Apollo: Aiya… why?!
Number One Thief Squash: …
Yu Shiyue?
Su Huiqing tossed her cell phone onto the table and opened her wardrobe. She chose a jacket.
She never heard that name before.
She narrowed her eyes and committed that name to memory.
A family like the Yu Family, especially those on Yu Shijin’s side of the family tree, would never be so easily controlled. Unless someone was manipulating the situation from within.
Su Huiqing lowered her eyes and zipped up her jacket. She headed downstairs.
The moment she descended the stairs, she saw that the chief detective had already arrived. A team of men stood there in two neat rows, including Chu Xuning. A pile of gifts was placed on the table.
Su Huiqing was taken aback.
Yu Shijin sat regally on the sofa, his appearance and mannerisms totally flawless.
Su Ruohua was happily chatting with him.
She had always been an astute lady. This was the first male friend Su Huiqing had brought home apart from Yu Xiangyang and the gang. Plus that pile of presents on the table—Su Ruohua would be a fool if she couldn’t tell what was happening.
Dugu Heng just sat on the sofa, gazing at Su Ruohua’s happy face. His pupils narrowed. It looked like Su Ruohua had no idea who Yu Shijin really was.
If she knew Yu Shijin was the most powerful and fearsome man in the entire International Association now, she would not have such an expression on her face.
He once again turned to look at Su Huiqing, who was descending the stairs in a nonchalant manner.
Not only was she connected with major firearms merchant Apollo, she was also on close terms with the Yu Family. It looked like he would be the one benefiting from it all if she became his step-daughter.
After finishing their meal, Yu Shijin didn’t continue to insist on staying here.
Su Huiqing took her jacket and saw him downstairs.
Yu Shijin turned and stood by the door waiting for her. His lowered eyes were alluring, his voice deep and low. “Auntie, I will be leaving now.”
Su Ruohua patted him on the shoulder. “Little Yu, come visit Auntie again when you are free.”
Yu Shijin nodded very amiably.
Su Ruohua didn’t know that Dugu Heng had nearly dropped dead in fright when he heard her calling Yu Shijin “Little Yu”.
How many people in the International Association dared to address Yu Shijin in that manner?
Even Yu Hongchang wouldn’t dare!
“Didn’t you already sell that house?” Su Huiqing pressed for the lift. She turned to look at him, her expression clear and direct.
Yu Shijin didn’t feel embarrassed at all. He stood there elegant as always, the corners of his lips curling up slightly. “I just had the chief detective buy it back.”
His posh car was parked downstairs.
The sunlight reflected off its smooth, cold surface.
Chief detective opened the door and glanced at Su Huiqing meaningfully.
She reached up and brushed back her hair with a smirk. “Brother Yu, you should go back and recuperate.”
She looked devious which was not unusual, but there was something a little different this time.
Yu Shijin narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “I know.”
“Yes, you know.” Su Huiqing looked at him with profound eyes and sighed. She pointed somewhere behind him. “But have you ever considered that the people by your side will worry about you? This is not the time to be stubborn. I already told you this previously.”
Yu Shijin’s expression didn’t change. His voice remained serene as always. “I am not being stubborn.”
“You…”
Yu Shijin’s eye turned cold as he cut in. “You have never waited for me. I am afraid that you will be gone when I come out again. It has already happened thrice.”
He turned and boarded the car right after.
His back profile was harsh and aloof.
Before the car drove off, he wound down the window and assured her placidly. “I will go. Don’t worry.”
Su Huiqing remained standing there, her expression rather grave.
She looked at her cell phone, at the message from Apollo.
But she didn’t reply.
Thrice?
Even if she counted that time at Country H, it had only been twice. When was the third time?
Su Huiqing pursed her lips and kept her cell phone. Her head had started to ache. She went upstairs.
The Su Family mother-daughter duo’s impending visit to the Dugu Family residence caused a major furore in the Dugu Family. The Dugu Family matriarch and Dugu Wu were especially impacted. One was trembling in rage while the other was both angry and full of fear toward Su Huiqing.
Monster University.
Yu Xiangyang tossed his motorcycle keys toward Su Huiqing. He felt somewhat worried. “Eh, Qingqing, do you know how to ride a motorcycle?”
Su Huiqing caught the keys with one hand, while the other hand was holding her cell phone as she scrolled through the information sent over by Dugu.
It was all concerning Dugu Wu. He had even given her a copy of the information on the Dugu Family’s power.
She gave a nonchalant backward wave as she smirked. “Don’t worry.”
The Dugu Family was located in a prime area within the International Association.
Having been instigated by the Dugu Family matriarch, a bunch of servants were gossiping. “Pfft, she already has a daughter but still has the cheek to come to the Dugu Family. Any lady from the International Association would be better than her…”
“You don’t say. I really don’t know what Sir is thinking. How can he allow such a person to enter the Dugu Family.”
“I totally agree! I heard she has some lousy D-Class company!”
“A country bumpkin from Country Hua. She’ll know how unworthy she is in just a few days.”
Roar—
A black motorcycle came to a stop outside the Dugu Family.
Su Huiqing took off her helmet, revealing her flawless face. Her expression was cool and sharp.
“Having a good chat? Mmm?” Su Huiqing tossed her helmet aside.
Her lips were curled up at a devious angle.
The servants looked at her rather imperiously. Even if they could overlook Su Ruohua’s lowly status, they would never acknowledge this illegitimate daughter of hers. “Who do you think you are? Were you invited by the Dugu Family?”
Su Ruohua had just gone in, and Dugu Heng had personally come out to welcome her. As a result, they didn’t dare to behave disrespectfully then.
But this daughter of Su Ruohua would not enjoy such preferential treatment.
An illegitimate daughter. How dare she come to the Dugu Family residence so brazenly. She must be eyeing the Dugu Family’s power.
These servants had seen it all.
Su Huiqing tossed her helmet onto the motorcycle and turned with a cold smile. “Empress Su.”
Empress Su was squatting on the motorcycle.
It jumped down.
Its body turned into a flash!
Charging toward the servant who had spoken.
Its smooth claws reflected the sunlight.
As it pounced onto the servant, brilliant red flames spouted from its jaws with soul-crushing heat…
The other servants immediately retreated to the side, trembling in fear.
No one dared to move forward.
One of the servants stole a glimpse of Su Huiqing, feeling an inexplicable sense of admiration for her dashing actions… what was happening?
Su Huiqing stood there, arms crossed over her chest. Seeing that everyone had stepped back, she finally snapped her fingers. “Empress Su, come back.”
Empress Su immediately retracted its claws.
It followed Su Huiqing with elegant footsteps.
The two of them headed toward the front doors of the Dugu Family residence. Sunlight reflected off their back profile.
The servants remained huddled together. No one dared to stop her…
Su Huiqing paused and turned her head to look at the bunch of servants. She gave a cruel smile. “Remember, don’t ever offend my mother. I might let you live if you insult me, but it will be a one-way road to hell if you insult her. Understand?”
She fingered the silver wire on her left wrist as she spoke.
The vehemence in her eyes was real.
“You are indeed the bastard offspring of a trashy slut. Don’t test our limits!” The Dugu Family matriarch had been standing in a corner to observe the spectacle, but she couldn’t bear it any longer. She finally stepped out with an utterly grim face!
Wasn’t she just relying on Yu Shijin’s support? Who knew how much longer would she be able to hide behind Yu Shijin!
Su Huiqing’s face turned cold.
She already warned them not to insult Su Ruohua. Was she deaf?!
“Madam Dugu.” Su Huiqing flung out her silver wire which wrapped itself around the neck of the Dugu Family matriarch. Her smile turned even more vicious. “You have a death wish, right? I will help you!”
