I was sitting at home when a pot fell from the sky.
With light steps, she arrived behind the door, gripped the handle, and gently twisted it to open a crack, peering at the scene outside through the gap.
After seeing no movement outside, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She opened the door, stepped out of the room barefoot, and gripped her gun tightly. She had intended to turn on the light, but suddenly realized that if she did, the enemy would surely notice her presence.
However, what she didn't know was that even so, the Pyramid assassin had already noticed her.
They simply hadn't moved to eliminate her immediately; they wanted her to experience fear first.
Chen Yanxi didn't go downstairs, but first headed toward her father's room.
When she arrived outside the door, her brow furrowed, and a bad premonition filled her heart because she smelled blood.
In this situation, the smell of blood was enough to make her hair stand on end. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, but the more she did, the more afraid she became.
Finally, she couldn't help but reach out and open the door. In the next second, the sight that met her eyes chilled her to the bone.
Under the double stimulation, she broke down. Trembling, she approached the bedside. Two blood-soaked bodies lay there motionless. The blood had not yet congealed; they had clearly been killed not long ago.
"Ah~ Father, Father, don't scare me, wake up!"
"Why did this happen? Who was it? Come out! What kind of skill is hiding in the shadows? Sun Jingcheng! Yes, it must be someone he sent. No... no, it's not him, it's that man. How could he dare?"
Looking at her father's corpse, she slumped on the floor, tears falling like rain. With a choked voice, she said, "Father, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have died. I was wrong!"
After mourning, the expression on her face turned vicious. "Damned bastard, I won't let you go. Even if I have to lose everything, I'll see your whole family dead."
She had already decided in her heart that she would liquidate all the Chen Family assets tomorrow and then seek revenge for her father.
Unfortunately, she wouldn't have the chance.
"Want revenge? You won't have the chance anymore."
Suddenly, a low voice sounded behind Chen Yanxi, causing her to turn around subconsciously. Before she could raise the gun in her hand, a cold flash of light flickered before her eyes.
Clatter~
The gun in her hand fell to the floor. Her pupils dilated, and she clutched her neck tightly with both hands, looking at the man in front of her with a face full of disbelief.
It was a Western face, but none of that mattered anymore because, at this moment, blood was seeping through her fingers from her neck.
At this moment, she had only one confusion in her heart.
That was, why didn't the other party give her a chance to speak? Shouldn't they have let her fall into despair first before dealing the killing blow?
Who kills someone the moment they arrive? I still have so many things left unsaid.
But now she obviously couldn't say them. The Pyramid assassin shook the blood off his blade and turned to leave.
If you think they only carry knives, you are gravely mistaken. They know exactly which weapon to use and when.
A few minutes later, the entire Chen Family Villa fell into a dead silence. If one were to walk into the house, they could smell an extremely thick scent of blood.
By the time it was discovered, it was already after six in the morning, found by the vendor who always delivered ingredients to the Chen Family.
When the police arrived, the vendor was already paralyzed on the ground with fear, his whole body limp and devoid of strength. Soon, the news of the Chen Family being massacred spread throughout Singapore.
When Sun Jingcheng learned of this news, his first thought was that he was going to take the blame. At the auction, he and Chen Yanxi had an unpleasant encounter, and he had even spoken harsh words, telling Chen Zhenghong to buy a coffin.
Only one night had passed, and the Chen Family was wiped out. He feared that everyone outside would now believe he did it.
Sure enough, Sun Yian's call came through quickly. "Xiaocheng, you should have heard about the Chen Family's matter by now, right?"
Hearing this, Sun Jingcheng immediately became anxious. Did even his own father think he did it?
"Father, it wasn't me, it really wasn't me! You know me; how could I have the ability to wipe out the Chen Family so silently?"
Sun Yian, on the other end of the phone, fell silent for a moment before sighing. "Of course, I believe you didn't do it. In fact, whether you did it or not isn't important. What matters is that rumors are spreading everywhere that you massacred them to retaliate against the Chen Family. But don't worry, your grandfather has already suppressed this matter."
"The Song Family wanted to use this incident to make trouble, but they have no evidence, so there shouldn't be any problems for the time being."
"From today on, try not to go out if you can help it. I'm afraid the Song Family will take this opportunity to move against you."
"If there's anything to be done, you can send someone else. I'll send more people to protect you during this time. You must also be careful yourself; it's best to keep a weapon on you at all times."
Sun Jingcheng felt very helpless hearing this, like a mute swallowing bitter herbs, unable to voice his grievances.
He hadn't even had the chance to vent his anger on Chen Yanxi, and yet she had died just like that—it was too easy on her.
And if you're dead, you're dead, but in the end, I'm the one who has to take the blame.
"Understood, Father. Is everything okay on Grandfather's side?"
"It's fine. As long as nothing happens to you, everything will be okay. The Song Family doesn't dare to act openly. Alright, I have things to do, I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Sun Jingcheng sat on the sofa with a miserable expression. Great, now he couldn't even leave the house.
"Chen Yanxi, oh Chen Yanxi, did I owe you in a past life? Even in death, you have to disgust me."
Meanwhile, at the Song Family!
Song Chengen's mood at this moment could be described as exceptionally refreshed. The Chen Family was destroyed, and that fellow Sun Jingcheng was pushed into the eye of the storm. The truth no longer mattered.
"Sun Jingcheng, oh Sun Jingcheng, let's see how arrogant you can be this time. If you dare to come out, see if I don't find someone to kill you. Then I'll pin everything on the Chen Family remnants. Without evidence, even your grandfather won't be able to do anything to me."
As long as the Sun Family falls, from then on in Singapore, their Song Family would be above ten thousand and below only one.
Then, by planning step by step, it wouldn't be impossible for the Song Family to ascend to that position.
Just as he was envisioning the future, a middle-aged man with a grim face walked in from outside.
Seeing his father's disheveled clothes, Song Chengen was startled. "Father, weren't you going to a meeting? Why are you back so soon? This... what happened?"
To his surprise, Song Guorong spoke words that were shocking: "Someone offered five billion us dollars to buy my life."
