Chapter 217 - 217 Humiliated

217 Humiliated

“Ruan Cheng, you’re crazy.”

Sang Qianqian gritted her teeth. “If Xie Qiuling was still alive, she would definitely regret liking you!”

“It’s not up to you to criticize me and her.”

Ruan Cheng’s expression was extremely cold. “If you can’t change Shi’an’s mind, why don’t you worry about yourself and see how many days you can last here?”

Shao Jin, who had been standing behind Ruan Cheng the entire time, had not said a word. As he pushed Ruan Cheng away, he looked at Sang Qianqian with a complicated expression.

At first, he did not really believe that Xie Shi’an could be so determined to kill Master Cheng for a woman.

Even Shao Jin admired Xie Shi’an for what had happened in the early hours of the morning.

Xie Shi’an was the first person who could point a gun at Master Cheng and make him so angry that his illness acted up on the spot.

Master Cheng wanted Sang Qianqian to persuade Xie Shi’an to change his mind, but with Sang Qianqian’s personality, she did not seem like someone who would obediently give in.

He had to use some tricks to change Xie Shi’an’s mind.

Shao Jin pushed Ruan Cheng out and gave Cui Ke, who was waiting outside, a look.

Cui Ke understood and stayed.

A few hours ago, at the Ruan family’s residence.

Xie Shi’an watched the police leave, his emotions slightly complicated.

He had underestimated Ruan Cheng. Who would have thought there was another secret room in the Ruan family’s residence other than the one he knew?

This secret room was in Ruan Cheng’s bedroom.

Xie Shi’an had been to Ruan Cheng’s bedroom countless times, but he had never noticed that there was a dark room here.

It was originally used by Ruan Cheng to store secret documents, but now it was put to a different use.

When Sang Minglang was moved here, he temporarily avoided the police’s search. When the police left, he was moved back to the secret room. What a great cover-up.

When Xie Shi’an returned to his room, he found that Shao Jin was waiting for him with his men.

Shao Jin was playing with a gun in his hand and had a smile on his face. “Shall I bring you to see Sang Minglang?”

As the few of them approached, Xie Shi’an had no choice even if he did not want to go.

In the secret room, Xie Shi’an saw Sang Minglang, who was chained up. Sang Minglang looked at them coldly, not saying a word.

With a click, the bullet in Shao Jin’s hand was loaded, and the muzzle was aimed at Sang Minglang.

“What do you want?” Xie Shi’an’s face darkened.

Shao Jin replied, “Nothing much. Shi’an, give Sang Qianqian a call and tell her that you’re just outside her house. Ask her to come out and meet you. You have to tell her something about her brother.”

Xie Shi’an’s expression changed slightly. “I’m not going to do that.”

Shao Jin waved his hand, and two people came over and held Xie Shi’an.

“You’ve always been unwilling to touch a gun.”

Shao Jin smiled. “Why don’t I teach you how to shoot today?”

He walked over and stuffed the gun into Xie Shi’an’s hands. He held his hand and forced him to pull the trigger.

The bullet landed on the concrete floor in front of the bed, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The moment the gunshot rang out, Xie Shi’an felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He froze on the spot and could not move.

Sang Minglang’s expression also changed slightly. However, he looked at Xie Shi’an and said word by word, “Xie Shi’an, don’t listen to him. Don’t call my sister.”

Someone stepped forward and kicked Sang Minglang a few times, “Shut up! You have no right to speak here.”

Sang Minglang was in so much pain that he furrowed his brows tightly and gritted his teeth.

“Shi’an, you have to make a decision quickly, because time is really tight.”

“But if you want Sang Qianqian to know that you were the one who shot her brother, it’s fine if you don’t make this call,” Shao Jin said calmly.

Xie Shi’an’s hands were trembling badly.

Shao Jin pressed his finger again, stopping him from pulling the trigger.

Xie Shi’an’s psychological defense finally collapsed. He said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll do it.”

After ending the call with Sang Qianqian, he was unusually calm.

After leaving the secret room, he asked Shao Jin, “What does Ruan Cheng want to do to Sang Qianqian?”

“Do you still remember how your sister’s murderer died? Sang Qianqian will die in the same way as that person.”

Shao Jin looked into Xie Shi’an’s eyes and felt some pity for him. “Shi’an, you really shouldn’t have gone to look for Sang Qianqian behind Master Cheng’s back. You should have known the consequences of betraying Master Cheng.”

Xie Shi’an’s face was pale, and he was drenched in cold sweat. He could barely stand.

Of course, he knew how his sister’s murderer had died.

After being tortured by Ruan Cheng using all kinds of inhuman methods, he was locked up in a long-abandoned mental hospital, which was filled with living creatures like snakes and scorpions.

The man was scared and bitten to death. His death was extremely tragic.

When he was brought to the room by Cui Xu, he was trembling and did not dare to enter.

Ruan Cheng’s face was filled with delight. “Shi’an, that person is the murderer of your sister.”

Xie Shi’an held back his fear and looked at it a few times. The feeling of disgust and horror surged in him. He turned around and vomited violently.

In the depths of his heart, the first time he felt repulsed by Ruan Cheng was when he saw how that person had died.

Before this, he had regarded Ruan Cheng as his brother-in-law and called him Brother Cheng. He had treated him with respect and had felt closer to him.

However, from then on, he started to call Ruan Cheng as Master Cheng. An invisible crack started to form between the two of them.

He didn’t want to recall the scene he had seen in that room for the rest of his life.

However, Ruan Cheng actually wanted to use such a method to deal with Sang Qianqian.

Xie Shi’an snatched the gun from Shao Jin’s hand and rushed into Ruan Cheng’s room like a madman.

The gun was pointed at Ruan Cheng. Xie Shi’an said sternly, “Let Sang Qianqian go, or I’ll kill you.”

Ruan Cheng frowned. “Shi’an, put the gun down.”

“Bang!” A gunshot rang out.

The bullet swept past Ruan Cheng’s face with a strong gust of wind. His skin instantly tensed up and he felt pain.

Ruan Cheng’s expression changed. He did not expect Xie Shi’an to really shoot.

As if he had been severely stimulated, he coughed non-stop. His face turned red, and he actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

Shao Jin and his men had already restrained Xie Shi’an and snatched the gun.

He held onto Ruan Cheng anxiously. “Master Cheng, I’ll take you to the hospital!”

Ruan Cheng stopped him and looked up at Xie Shi’an.

“If you want Sang Qianqian to be fine, then go back to the Xie family.”

It was rare that Ruan Cheng did not get angry, but there was an indescribable pressure in his voice. “I will let you see Sang Qianqian. Shi’an, I will wait for your reply.”

—

Outside Sang Qianqian’s room.

After checking the time, a man put on a mask and opened the door.

As he stared at the girl standing by the window, his eyes flashed with hatred.

It was all Sang Qianqian’s fault that his brother, Cui Xu, was sent to jail.

This woman was the one who had caused Master Cheng and Young Master An to fall out. She deserved to die.

When Sang Qianqian heard the commotion, she turned around and saw a man wearing a green mask with fangs on his face walking toward her.

She was slightly shocked. Before she could speak, the man had already raised his hand and slapped her hard on the face.

He used a lot of strength, making Sang Qianqian fall to the ground. A bright red handprint appeared on her fair face.
