Chapter 176: Lecherous Heart Never Dies

"Wake him up and put him on the phone," Sheng Hanyu said.

Sheng Yukai spoke in a sarcastic, mocking tone, yet stood still: "Yo, are you ordering me around? In what capacity are you ordering me? If you're using your status as the eldest brother, you haven't been that for a long time. If you're using your status as the Group Chairman, it's the middle of the night, not working hours..."

The strange sound on the phone grew louder and louder; it sounded very much like someone was making it on purpose.

Sheng Hanyu was one hundred percent certain that Sheng Yukai was lying; his third brother was in danger now, and he had to go save him.

"Open the door."

"Wait."

Soon, the lights in the mansion turned on. Sheng Yukai spoke to him from behind the door, setting conditions: "You can't bring bodyguards inside. My servants and bodyguards are all on leave. If you bring people and they do something to me, I won't even have the ability to fight back."

Sheng Hanyu agreed: "Fine, open the door. I'll go in alone."

"No."

He was rejected by Sheng Yukai once again: "You can't come in alone; you have to bring your wife in with you. If my sister-in-law comes here and can't even get a cup of tea, it will spread outside and people will laugh at me for not knowing my manners..."

He was furious and interrupted Sheng Yukai: "What kind of tricks are you playing? We didn't come here to drink tea. Where is Ze Rong? Make him come out."

"Hmph!"

Sheng Yukai crossed his arms: "This is my territory, not your Villa or your company. Sheng Hanyu, I'm telling you to stop bossing me around here. Do you think it's still childhood, when you had Grandpa backing you up and everything had to go your way?"

Mentioning Grandpa, Sheng Hanyu's pupils constricted: "Grandpa was killed by you; how do you still have the face to mention him?"

Sheng Yukai did not deny it: "He deserved to die. From childhood to adulthood, where am I inferior to you? Just because you are the eldest grandson, he was always biased toward you. Every good thing was given to you first, and only then was it my turn. On what grounds?"

Sheng Hanyu did not want to argue this point with him here and once again demanded to see Sheng Zerong.

"You both come in together, or neither of you comes in."

"I'll go in with you." Shi Youxuan did not know when she had gotten out of the car and was standing by his side.

Then, without waiting for his agreement, she said to Sheng Yukai: "Open the door, stop being such a dawdler."

Sheng Yukai's gloomy face wore a triumphant smile, but the way he looked at Shi Youxuan was very uncomfortable.

He opened the main gate: "Please, come in."

Sheng Hanyu unobtrusively shielded Shi Youxuan at his side, and the three of them crossed the courtyard and walked into the main hall.

On the coffee table in the hall, there was a tea set with two cups that had been used, but there was no one there!

"Which room is Ze Rong in? We'll go find him."

Sheng Yukai said: "The Study on the second floor. Big brother, you go up and find him yourself. I'll have a chat with my sister-in-law."

As he spoke, he lecherously sized up Shi Youxuan: "The number one beauty in Jiangzhou should be you. Compared to you, Shi Yuke isn't even fit to carry your Spring Shoes..." His claws reached out restlessly, wanting to touch Shi Youxuan's face.

"Slap!"

A slap was fiercely swung onto his face. Shi Youxuan's strike was fast and heavy.

Sheng Yukai's face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and five red finger marks were clearly visible on his cheek.

"Little sister-in-law, you have a heavy hand. I just like a little girl with a temper like yours..." Sheng Yukai was blinded by lust and tried to seduce Shi Youxuan right in front of Sheng Hanyu.

Even after being slapped, he still wouldn't give up and tried to lean in again. This time, Sheng Hanyu did not stand by and watch coldly.

He shielded his wife behind him and quickly raised his leg, kicking Sheng Yukai in the chest.

A kick to the heart sent Sheng Yukai flying into the sofa, nearly knocking the wind out of him; it took him a good while to recover.

Sheng Hanyu whispered to his wife: "Go out and call for people."

Both of them felt that something was wrong. Sheng Yukai was treacherous by nature but not very courageous; he had always had the lecherous heart but not the lecherous guts toward Shi Youxuan.

Being so bold and reckless just now was very abnormal. Such fearlessness could only mean one thing: he had a trump card in his hand!

This time, Shi Youxuan did not object and prepared to slip out to call for help.

"Stop."

Sheng Yukai scolded sternly: "This is the Sheng Family Mansion, do you think it's your little broken Villa where you can come in and go out as you please? If you dare take one step out, I will blow Sheng Zerong into mincemeat. You two can decide what to do."

He held up a black remote control, similar to a car key!

"Mmph, mmph."

"Clang—"

A sound came from the Study upstairs. Although it wasn't loud, both of them heard it clearly; it was Sheng Zerong.

Sheng Hanyu's face changed drastically: "What have you done to Ze Rong? Sheng Yukai, are you a beast? First you killed Grandpa, and now you are doing this to Ze Rong. He is your own brother."

"Cut the crap. If you don't want to hear an explosion, go upstairs."

Sheng Yukai had a gleaming Dagger in his hand from who knows when. He held the knife in one hand and the remote control in the other, his thumb hovering over the remote, which made the two of them terrified.

They dared not disobey, fearing that if Sheng Yukai's hand trembled, the bomb would go off.

"Go upstairs," he ordered again.

Sheng Hanyu said: "I will go with you. This is a matter between us; it has nothing to do with Xuanxuan."

"No."

Sheng Yukai refused flatly: "Go up together. Stop playing tricks in front of me. You still want to treat me like a fool at a time like this? Not a chance."

He pressed the Dagger against Sheng Hanyu's waist, his eyes still lecherously glancing at Shi Youxuan's face.

"Look again and I'll dig your eyeballs out," Sheng Hanyu threatened.

Sheng Yukai subconsciously shrank his neck, not daring to look again. Then he thought, *Wait, that's not right—at a time like this, why are you still acting tough in front of me? *

He immediately straightened his back and roared: "Sheng Hanyu, stop putting on airs in front of me. If you make me unhappy, I'll kill you first!"

"Hmph!"

Sheng Hanyu snorted from his nose, full of contempt for him.

Pushing open the door to the Study, Sheng Zerong was tied to a chair with a ring of explosives wrapped around his chest.

He widened his eyes and shook his head repeatedly, making "mmph" sounds with his mouth, meaning for the two of them to leave quickly and not worry about him!

Sheng Hanyu gave his third brother a reassuring look, then turned to Sheng Yukai and said: "Whatever conditions you want to release him, I will agree to them all."

"Can you agree to any condition?" Sheng Yukai's greedy gaze began to scan over Shi Youxuan again...

He used his body to shield his wife behind him and said sternly, "This is the best time for you to set conditions, Sheng Yukai. You had better seize this opportunity and stop thinking about things that are impossible."

"Impossible? Then I will make it possible."

Sheng Yukai was blinded by lust; from the first moment he saw Shi Youxuan, he had designs on her.

But at the time, there were too many concerns, and he dared not harbor any intentions toward her.

Later, Shi Youxuan "disappeared," and when she reappeared, she was not only no longer foolish but also the Chairman of Tianma Group and an investment genius; it would not be difficult for her to bring down the Sheng Family's business empire, so he dared even less to harbor intentions toward her.

Today, she actually followed him here, and at this moment, there were no concerns to stop him from taking action.

In any case, he did not intend to let any of the few people present leave alive!

Sheng Yukai gestured with the knife at Sheng Hanyu, the man he had hated since childhood and yet feared immensely.

"I only have one condition, very simple: let her accompany me once, and then I will let you go..."

Hearing such a shameless condition, Sheng Hanyu was so angry his lips trembled, and he squeezed a few words through his teeth: "Dream on, don't even think about it."
