After the shooting, Jing Yiran left the hospital immediately seeing that Shangguan Ning was fine. He ran straight to the building opposite the hospital.

  When he arrived, he found that the tall building had already been surrounded by a large number of people.

  Outside the building, the policemen had arrived at the scene within three minutes of the incident, breaking their own record. Four police helicopters were already circling overhead, and all the traffic nearby had been blocked. Many armed police were waiting with guns, dressed in bullet-proof jackets.

  Judging from the situation, the killer might have no chance of escaping.

  Jing Yiran suspected that Jing Zhongxiu had used the entire police force. Even if there was any murder happening anywhere in the city, there would not be any personnel spared for the case.

  Half an hour later, the police found a body on the 36th floor of the building.

  The body was still warm with only one fatal gun wound. The killer might have shot himself after realizing that he had nowhere to go.

  The following day, the incident was published in the newspaper. The article described in detail about how the killer and the police had acted and reacted respectively, but it reported nothing about the victim. No one had any idea who the killer had been supposed to kill.

  At a luxurious villa spread over hundreds of square meters in the southern part of A City, Jiang Nan, the old lady of Family Yang was seated at an old-fashioned wooden armchair made of silkwood. She finished reading the newspaper within a few minutes.

  Then she shouted to Shangguan Rouxue who silently stood behind her, “Get down on your knees!”


  “Grandmother!” Shangguan Rouxue’s large eyes sparkled with panic. She was trembling.

  Mrs. Yang closed her eyes, and the Butler beside her immediately cracked a short whip at Shangguan Rouxue’s knees hard.

  With a loud sound, Shangguan Rouxue kneeled down involuntarily.

  Mrs. Yang opened her eyes and said in an icy cold tone, “I knew that bitches always give birth to bitches! Both of you dared to use me? Seems that you have been living such a wonderful life that you forget what death actually means.”


  “Grandmother, you have misunderstood us. Mom and I love you so much, how can we ever use you?” Shangguan Rouxue trembled hard kneeling on the floor. Her face had gone completely pale.

  “I have the right to decide who lives and dies in Family Yang. Anyone I want to kill will not have a chance to stay alive. Have you lived enough to court death? Shangguan Ning is the lady of Family Jing, and you dared to conceal such an important piece of information! Did you plan to kill the entire Family Yang with you?”


  Mrs. Yang had just finished her words when a servant came running in and said anxiously, “Old Lady, some people from Family Jing are here. We can’t stop them! They…… they are carrying guns!”


  Jiang Nan got up from the chair, calmly.

  “Let’s go and see!”


  She didn’t display any signs of panic.

  Before she could take another step, the door opened again.

  A tall and middle-aged man stood there with the sun rays trickling in from behind him, almost forming a halo around him.

  “Jing Zhongxiu!” Jiang Nan burst out in surprise and anger.

  Jing Zhongxiu was standing at the door. He didn’t step in and spoke in a composed voice, “It is me, Mrs. Yang. I shouldn’t have behaved so impolitely as you are my senior. But Family Yang has behaved in such a manner that I am left with no choice. Family Yang has tried to hurt the offspring of Family Jing. As the master of Family Jing, I am here to ask for justice. Mr. Yang couldn’t have foreseen that the family business he had built through hard work in his life would be ruined in the hands of three women! I came here today only out of respect for the deceased Mr. Yang. Don’t worry, no one, not even a dog won’t be able to step out of Family Yang’s villa today.”


  Having said these words, he retreated. The gate of the villa closed gradually and the sunlight started to disappear slowly. It made the people inside feel as if the path of their lives was closing down.

  Before Mrs. Yang could say anything, a loud deafening sound of explosion arose in Family Yang’s villa and the ground trembled violently.

  Three villas that stood in a row collapsed one after another. Painful screams could be heard alongside the sound of the explosion.

  Jing Zhongxiu ignored everything and walked out of the colorful garden of Family Yang. He said to a man dressed in black, “Stay here. When the police come, tell them that Family Yang owned these properties, and we set off the bombs to it. If anyone wants to go inside to rescue anyone, don’t stop them. But if anyone lives, tell me the names. Also, get anyone from Family Yang who is still out there.”


  The man in black answered positively. Then he opened the car door for Jing Zhongxiu and helped him get inside the luxurious Rolls Royce.

  Family Yang whose properties were on the third position of A City, collapsed overnight. The stock prices fell and the family broke into pieces. The members of Family Yang all over the globe got caught and were sent to prison because of some old crimes like bribes or simply went missing.

  It was breaking news in A City. Everyone was trying to figure out who Family Yang had offended so badly that it collapsed so fast.

  Those who knew the truth were trying hard not to mention anything about it.

  Family Jing was very powerful in A City and no one dared to offend them. Family Jing had been powerful many years earlier as well and Jing Zhongxiu was a name known to every household. He was distant yet had a mild temper. He never got furious easily.

  But if he ever did, then he would become destructive and unstoppable.

  The fact that Jing Yichen and Shangguan Ning were the targets of a killer had been kept confidential. Almost no one knew that they had been injured. But he didn’t conceal the truth that Jing Zhongxiu had bombed three villas of Family Yang and killed everyone inside. He even told the police about it of his own accord. Therefore, many people got to know that Family Yang was ruined because of Family Jing.

  Family Yang had been very famous and intimidating in A City, so everyone was surprised that such a massive family could be destroyed within such a short span of time. Family Jing was indeed a powerful one and no one dared to offend them.

  Family Jing had become more formidable than ever.

  Jing Yiran, who was frivolous and careless, sensed the change before everyone else did.

  When he used to step out before, there was always someone who came and pleaded with him and paid respect to him. But when he stepped out now, people gave him a look as if he were a ghost. They trembled and couldn’t even say a thing. They were afraid that if they did anything to annoy this Second Master, he may report it to his father, and their families would be ruined just as Family Yang!
