Chapter 75 National Treasures Reign Supreme (10)

"What did you say?" The old man's voice boomed as he turned to look at her, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He counted on his fingers and realized he was about fifteen, which was roughly the age to start junior high school.

This calculation was quite something. He was filled with rage and malice. With a loud "bang," he slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "You two, tie that unfilial son up and bring him here!"

After saying that, he rubbed his face, the ferocity on his face still lingering, making him look especially frightening. "Little girl, go with the butler to your lodgings. Don't be afraid. I know it must have been Yi Yang who bullied you. When they bring him back, I'll give him a good beating for you."

After everyone had left, Shen Yun carefully considered his words and realized that he had never said anything about not getting married. He had only said that he wanted to teach Si Yiyang a lesson. Although she was quite satisfied with this, that wasn't the point. If beating him up could solve the problem, then Si Yiyang would definitely be a monster by now.

Si Yiyang waited outside for a long time but no one came, and now he was really anxious.

Xiaoqi is unfamiliar with this place and people, so she probably wouldn't leave on her own. It's only possible that someone else took her away.

Although in his eyes the red panda was very clever and would never suffer a loss, there was no guarantee that some blind fool might try to take advantage of him.

I made a phone call, and all I heard was a series of clicking sounds. After a long pause, the other end seemed to say, "Brother Yiyang, do you really want to know who took your little darling away?"

Si Yiyang sensed something was amiss upon hearing this. "Who is it?"

The voice on the other end seemed full of pity, "Your old man's people... if you ask me, you should go back and see for yourself. You should know what kind of methods your old man can use..."

Impatient, Si Yiyang hung up the phone immediately.

Driving at breakneck speed to the Si family home, Si Yiyang experienced fear for the first time. He knew his grandfather's personality; he valued marriages between people of equal social standing. He couldn't be sure what his grandfather would do to make Xiao Qi leave him.

Clearly, he was overthinking it.

However, before he could even enter his house, he was knocked down by two burly men. Despite his background, Si Yiyang could only be described as having some martial arts skills. He could handle ordinary thugs, but he was no match for trained fighters.

The two burly men slightly raised the corners of their mouths. "Young master, we are truly sorry."

Bound tightly, Si Yiyang's face was tense. "Is Si Qi here?"

When Si Qi was mentioned, the two burly men's gaze towards Si Yiyang changed. Previously respectful, it was now filled with contempt. "Young Master, let the Master tell you the details."

The interior is decorated in a Chinese style. An elderly man with a sharp gaze sits in the center, holding a cup of tea.

Not angry.

Four big characters appeared in Si Yiyang's mind. Although his grandfather was usually like this, he still felt that something was wrong.

"Crack!" The teacup was crushed into pieces, which clattered onto the table. "Si-Yi-Yang--"

"You've really gotten capable now, huh?"

Thinking that he was talking about not going home, Si Yiyang lowered his head and remained silent.

Seeing him like this made the old man angry, so he threw down the broken pieces in his hand. "What's the background of this little girl?"

The old man had sent people to investigate, but the results were almost entirely fruitless. This person seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, with no record of him whatsoever.

Si Yiyang honestly replied, "I met Si Qi when I was out. Her parents were deceased, and she had no other relatives, so I took her with me." Upon hearing this, the old man was both surprised and angry. "You're raising her as your daughter?"

Si Yiyang's face darkened. "Of course not, Xiao Qi is the one I've chosen."

"She's only fifteen?"

To be honest, Si Yiyang didn't know how old Si Qi was either, so he could only nod and say, "Yes."

The old man closed his eyes, and after a long while, he said, "Absurd! How old is she? She's not even an adult yet, and you're already like this... you..."

"Grandpa, you should know what kind of person I am. Since I chose Xiaoqi, that will never change."

"Did you ask for her opinion?" The old man scoffed, as if mocking his so-called insistence. "I think that little girl doesn't seem to like you."

Si Yiyang smiled and said, "Of course she likes it, but she's still young, so she doesn't know how to express it."

Shen Yun, who was watching the live broadcast and gossiping in his room, almost choked on his own saliva. "You bastard, is he talking about me?"

2345 was overjoyed, its small eyes seemingly gleaming with a secret light. [Of course it's true, host. Look how sincere he is, why don't you just go for it?]

"Heh." Shen Yun sneered after hearing this. "Go for it if you like it. I'll support you anyway. Although you two are different species, true love can overcome all obstacles. Good luck." After saying that, she casually gave him the middle finger, whether intentionally or not.

2345 imagined the man's sinister face and instantly dared not speak.

【I was wrong.】It may feel good to talk big, but eventually you will get your comeuppance.

"Alright, stop messing around and keep watching. I really hope he gets beaten to death."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old man indeed took out a rattan cane from behind him. The dark brown rattan cane had a faint luster, and it looked like the kind that would hurt a lot when you hit someone.

"If you give up now, I can have your second uncle adopt her as his daughter, and this matter will be considered settled." The authoritative voice was cold, as if it were in the depths of winter.

This offer is indeed quite good. Becoming the daughter of the Si family would be absolutely harmless for her, and it would also make completing tasks easier. Shen Yun wished she could run over and agree herself.

Si Yiyang naturally disagreed, and his face darkened upon hearing this. He stared at the old man and slowly said, "It's impossible, Grandpa. As long as I live, Si Qi will always be mine."

As a result, he was severely beaten. Even through the screen, Shen Yun could feel his pain. Seeing this scene, Shen Yun suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember it and put it aside.

Perhaps she has experienced too much and is confused.

Even though he was beaten until he was covered in sweat and blood, Si Yiyang only groaned twice and did not beg for mercy. Seeing this, the old man had no choice but to stop. After all, he was his own grandson and he couldn't kill him.

In truth, he knew that his question was just a formality. If Si Yiyang could be easily persuaded, he wouldn't have left the Si family. It's just that this little girl is too young.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "You really are unwilling to give up."

Si Yiyang said, enunciating each word clearly, "I would rather die than do that."

Large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and dripped into his clothes, mingling with the blood.
