Chapter 8 The Chen Family Attacks
The crowd on the scene, hearing the commotion, couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Has this guy lost his mind? A mere son-in-law actually dares to make an enemy of the Chen family. He must think he's not dying fast enough!"
Amidst the onlookers' gazes that seemed to be looking at a dead man, Ye Ling remained calm and raised his hand, saying, "You go back and tell Chen Tai to come personally to the Su residence and apologize to my wife. Otherwise, I will wipe out the Chen family!"
"Haha!" Members of the Chen family laughed out of sheer rage, shouting at the top of their lungs, "Alright, Mr. Ye, in my whole life I've never seen someone as arrogant as you. The last person who messed with our Chen family ended up being devoured by sharks!"
The people on the scene all shook their heads and sighed, "Big trouble now, Chen Tai is a ruthless and cruel character. Back in Southeast Asia, he killed who knows how many people for a jade mine. Someone actually killed his only son this time; he won't stop until blood flows into a river!"
...
A rumble of thunder roared, and the sky instantly turned dark.
The entire city's inhabitants were silently looking in the direction of the Su family mansion.
Within the Su family courtyard, all the direct descendants of the Su family gathered together, with even the elderly and children sitting nervously in their chairs.
"Grandfather, Ye Ling has gone too far this time. You can't protect him anymore!" Su Jun roared angrily, his eyes filled with hatred.
According to his plan, by using Su Rou to please Young Master Chen, he could have leveraged the Chen family's power to achieve great things.
But now, everything was ruined; not only did they fail to ingratiate themselves with the Chen family, but they had also made a deadly enemy of them.
All because of this son-in-law in front of him!
"Yes, Grandfather, Chen Tai has already issued an ultimatum to hand over Ye Ling within half an hour or he will lead people to flatten our Su family!"
With Su Ya's call, the faces of the Su family members turned pale, everyone's head shrunk in, and they began to shake.
The name Chen Tai was well known to them. The bloody mines he had carved out in Southeast Asia killed countless people every year, with even the stones of the mine stained blood red. How could they provoke such a vicious man!
"Ye Ling, let's run away, just the two of us. We can find a rural place to hide. Even Chen Tai won't be able to find us." Su Rou's trembling little eyes still firmly grasped Ye Ling's hand.
"Heh, run? Do you think we can escape? Chen Tai's men have us surrounded. Not even a mosquito can fly out!" Su Ya sneered, then coldly said, "Grandfather, there's only one way out. We must hand over Ye Ling. Only then can our Su family survive!"
The members of the Su family nodded, chanting in unison like the beating of a drum, "Hand over Ye Ling!"
Their drum-like voices were deafening, but Ye Ling remained indifferent, cradling a freshly-steeped bowl of Mao Jian tea, savoring it carefully.
"Ha, has he gone dumb with fear? To think he's in the mood for tea at a time like this?" the Su family members looked on with disdain. But Ye Ling stood up, gestured to the Family Head, and said, "The matter with the Chen family, since I'm the one who caused it, I will certainly take care of it."
He took a step forward, disregarding the doubt in the eyes of the Su family members, and instructed Ye Jiu, "Five minutes. I want the Chen family's people to withdraw and have Chen Tai kneel in the Su family courtyard to apologize!"
"Yes, sir!" Ye Jiu bowed and exited from the Su family courtyard.
After he left, a loud boom was heard as the Su family's front door was blown open by a bomb.
Then, a group of thugs surrounded the place. They were menacing figures who would slash at anyone they saw, and it took them just half a minute to overpower the Su family's security guards.
At that moment, a middle-aged man with a sinister look in his eyes walked in. He swept a cold glance over the people of the Su family and shouted angrily, "Where is that bastard Ye Ling? Come out and face your death immediately!"
The Su family members trembled with anxiety. They looked at the bloodied blades and immediately cursed, "Ye Ling, you useless trash, this mess is entirely your fault. Go face your death yourself!"
Ye Ling remained composed. He glanced at the clock on the wall and shook his head, "Two more minutes."
The crowd was taken aback, then burst into loud laughter, "The kid must have been scared out of his wits, right?"
A hint of disdain flashed in Chen Tai's eyes as he flicked the cigarette ash, "Since he wants to play the fool and get through this, then turn him into a fool. Make him a laughingstock forever!"
"Yes, Family Head!" Several of Chen's thugs approached with sinister smiles, but were stopped by Grandpa Su. He looked respectfully at Ye Ling, then shook his head, "Chen Tai, you haven't understood the meaning of Mr. Ye's words. When he says two minutes, he means that is the time left for your Chen family's demise. If you don't withdraw your people within two minutes, your Chen family is finished!"
"Haha, annihilate my Chen family within two minutes? Does he think he is the Almighty?" Chen Tai slapped his forehead and laughed loudly. The members of the Su family, even more ashamed, hung their heads low. The old grandpa really was senile, actually believing the nonsense of that useless Ye Ling. What capabilities could a powerless son-in-law like him have to deal with the Chen family in two minutes? It was utterly ridiculous!
"Hmph, since you, old Su, are insisting on defending this useless man, then I'll wipe out your Su family along with him!" Chen Tai's eyes glowed fiercely; his men immediately brandished their knives, ready to attack the Su family members.
"It's over, to think that my noble Su family would be destroyed like this, all because of that worthless Ye Ling. How dare he provoke the Chen family!"
The Su family members were prostrate on the ground, cursing bitterly, their eyes filled with resentment.
Just then, a figure sprinted over, exclaiming anxiously, "Family Head, it's terrible, our Chen Corporation is ruined!"
"What nonsense are you spouting? Our Chen Corporation is a leader in the jewelry industry; who could ruin us?" Chen Tai frowned and said.
"No, Master, just now, the banks have suspended all operations with our corporation and are demanding we repay our loans within three hours!"
"What? How is that possible? Who has such power?" Chen Tai's face changed drastically, and his body even began to tremble.
"Hehe, haven't you realized yet? The only reason you're being targeted is that you offended Mr. Ye!" Grandpa Su stroked his beard and laughed heartily. He wore an extremely pleased expression on his face.
Just moments ago, Chen Tai was strutting in front of him, but now he was about to become a beggar.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Tai immediately shook his head and said, "Old man Su, don't scare me. Could your family's son-in-law really have such influence?"
With that, his face darkened, and he said fiercely, "I don't care what background you have; you dared to kill my son, and I will make you pay with your life!"
