Chapter 714 - Final Struggle (2)
Zhao Yifei couldn’t help but sink his head in despair when he heard Sun Fengzi’s words. He thought to himself, it’s alright if you want to die with your enemies, but at this rate, I, your son, am going to get killed alongside you? It doesn’t matter if you die; I don’t want to die. You can be ruthless to Duan Yarong and the others now. In the future, Zhao Youlin and the others will put all these debts on my head. The one who is truly unlucky is
me!
Of course, Zhao Yifei could not tell Sun Fengzi that. After some consideration, Zhao Yifei planned to persuade Sun Fengzi tactfully. Unexpectedly, Zhao Youlin added fuel to the fire at that moment.
“You want us to be buried with you?” Zhao Youlin glanced at Sun Fengzi contemptuously. “Our lives are much more precious than yours. If you want us to be buried with you, won’t we suffer a great loss?”
“You…” Sun Fengzi struggled even harder after being provoked by Zhao Youlin.
“Miss Sun, I advise you not to waste your energy anymore. In your current state, you absolutely can’t hurt us in the slightest. As for those curses and insults, you can keep them. Save them for those police officers over there,” Zhao Youlin said as she pointed over Sun Fengzi’s shoulder.
Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei were stunned for a moment. Suddenly, they seemed to have understood something. They turned their heads stiffly and saw a few young men in police uniforms running toward them.
Sun Fengzi’s eyes widened to the extreme. She looked at Zhao Youlin in disbelief. “You… you actually called the police!”
“Why can’t we call the police? You’ve done so many outrageous things. Some of them have long violated the law. It’s not something that a family could solve on its own. Of course, we had to call the police.” Zhao Youlin sneered as she looked at Sun Fengzi’s pale face.
Wasn’t she quite vicious just now? Now she seemed to have recalled her fear. Unfortunately, it was too late!
“I’m sorry, are you Ms. Sun Fengzi?” What surprised Zhao Youlin was the person leading this group of police officers. It was actually… Mu Chen.
Mu Chen had called out in a low voice, but he didn’t get a response for a long time. He looked at Sun Fengzi with confusion and could only repeat, “Excuse me, are you Ms. Sun Fengzi?”

Sun Fengzi still didn’t answer, and Mu Chen grew slightly impatient. “Lady, we are on official business. Can you cooperate with us? Are you Ms. Sun Fengzi or not?”
Sun Fengzi finally woke up from her stupor. As she gazed at the police uniform on Mu Chen’s body, she inexplicably felt a little guilty. She answered hesitantly, “I… I am.”
“In that case, please come back to the police station with us. Someone made a report saying that you privately hired someone to kidnap, while also being suspected of orchestrating multiple murders.” Mu Chen was professional and monotone throughout the recital.
Sun Fengzi’s body trembled, and she instinctively wanted to step back. She trembled and said, “No… I’m not going. You have no evidence. Why are you arresting me?”
When Mu Chen heard this, he frowned even deeper, he patiently explained, “Madam Sun, we are not arresting you. There are people who have testified against you. We are simply inviting you to the police station to help us out with the investigation. If we are unable to find solid evidence, we will release you. Please cooperate with us and don’t make things difficult for us.”
Sun Fengzi looked at Mu Chen with distrust. What would happen if they found out the truth?
She knew better than anyone what she had done. Would she be able to come back from this?
With this thought in mind, Sun Fengzi pursed her lips and looked at the few police officers who were about to go forward to arrest her. Suddenly, she turned around and ran in Zhao Shunchang’s direction.
The former master was taken aback. Zhao Shunchang quickly stood between them, shielding his father.
The former master noticed his son’s actions and was a little surprised. His eyes, which were filled with wisdom and vicissitudes of life, flashed with emotion,
Sun Fengzi did not do anything dangerous. Instead, she kneeled down at Zhao Shunchang’s feet and hugged his thigh. She shouted, “Shunchang, Shunchang, save me, save me, don’t let them take me away. I know I’m in the wrong. I’ve done a lot of things wrong. I’ve let you down. Can you please forgive me? It’s said that a husband and wife are forever indebted to each other. We’ve been husband and wife for so many years. You can’t just stand by and do nothing. Save Me, save me! As long as you’re willing to save me this time, I promise that in the future… in the future, I’ll listen to everything you say. I won’t lose my temper with you anymore. I won’t despise you anymore. I’ll let you decide upon everything. Can you tell them not to take me away? Okay?”
This was the first time that Sun Fengzi had ever lowered herself to beg others, especially Zhao Shunchang, whom she usually looked down on the most. She was the only one who could order him around and bully him. When did it become his turn?
Sun Fengzi suppressed the humiliation in her heart. She thought to herself that she had to appease Zhao Shunchang now. When there was an opportunity in the future, she would definitely make him pay back double.
Unfortunately, Sun Fengzi was destined to make a mistake this time. She felt that it was very unfair for her to lower herself, but others might not be willing to fall for her trick of lowering herself.
Zhao Shunchang was also shocked when he saw his wife, who had been bullying him for so many years, actually kneeling in front of him to beg him to save her.
However, after the shock, Zhao Shunchang’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions that no one could read.
When Zhao Youlin and the others heard Sun Fengzi’s shameless cries, they all frowned in annoyance. Zhao Shunrong even wanted to step forward and interject, but was stopped by the former master.
Mu Chen and the others were also frightened by Sun Fengzi’s sudden action. When they saw Sun Fengzi kneeling beside Zhao Shunchang’s leg and begging him loudly for help, they finally reacted to apprehend her.
At that moment, Zhao Youlin stepped in front of them and said in a low voice that only a few people could hear, “I’m sorry. Please wait for a moment. Let us settle some family matters.”
Mu Chen saw Zhao Youlin and was stunned again. Logically speaking, under such circumstances, he had no reason to accept her rather willful request.
However, when he looked into Zhao Youlin’s eyes, Mu Chen actually nodded subconsciously.
On the other side, Zhao Shunchang was silent for a long time before he spoke faintly, as if he wanted to confirm something. “Have you loved me all these years?”
“I…” Sun Fengzi did not expect Zhao Shunchang to suddenly ask this. She was caught off guard and looked away guiltily, not daring to look into Zhao Shunchang’s eyes.
